land. The present rate is 30 cents
per hundred from Ashland and the

cents per hundred.
Qresham Outlook: The less poli
tics that there is in the Oregon legis
lature the better will It be for the
state. Let the men elected to repre
sent the people in the state legisla
ture work diligently and earnestly
tor Oregon and its people without re
gard to parties or policies. That will
be the best thing for the state.
