Early In January however, it was absolutely necessary for her to give up school work, and on February it, it was necessary to take ber to Portland to undergo a surgical operation for appendicitis.

State of Oregon makes in its statement of total tax assessment for the year 1903, For a commonwealth that industrially ,is yet in its infancy, an increase in the value of tangible property in single year amounting to approximately 125,000,. OOO is a record of which every citizen can justly be proud. A satisfactory feature of the snowing alluded to is the progress that is manifest alor. most substantial lines, notable in the' in creased area and value of tillable lands and the improvements thereon, and the increase in the value of livestock. At the same time nrban property has ad' vaoced in a most satisfactory manner. although it is evident that in the cste of Multnomah County the figures of the Assessor's roll do not represent the actual progress that has been made. In the active agencies of industry, out Bide of agriculture, the year's progress is also quite satisfactory, and may be taken as an earnest of the attainment of the attainment of even more notable results in the future accepted fact that Oregon is making rapid strides in a material way, but the in i ii War Makes Demand for Idaho Sheep. HIGHLY ESTEEMED BY ALL She Was a Teacher of More Than Ordinary Ability and .. Morrow County Schools Lose an Able Worker. More than a hundred, perhaps a hundred and fifty Heppner people wnt to lone last Sunday on an excursion train to attend the funeral of Miss Anna Balsinger, who died last week at St. Vincent hospital in Portland, from acute Bright's disease after an operation for appendicitis. Miss Balstger was one of the most widely known and highly respected women of Morrow county, and for this rea'on her funeral was attended by people from all sections of the county. Mayor Gilliam found it necessary to charter the branch line train in order that all who desired to attend from this city might be accommodated. The funeral services were held in the Congregalionalist church at one o'clock Sunday afternoon. The capacity of the church as not sufficient to seat one half of those who sought admission. Rev. C. E. Clapp, of Forest Grove, assisted by the pastor of the lone church, conducted the services, the former delivering the sermon, which was very impressive. The floral contributions were profuse. The services at the cemetery were short and not to largely attended owing to the bleak weather. The pall bearers were five brothers and a brother- la-law of the deceased Miss Anna Julia Balsiger was born in Highland, Illinois, Feb. 6th 1 866 and died in Portland, Oregon, Feb. 25th 1904, aged 38 years.

Monte Gwinn, secretary ot the Idaho Woolgrowers' association, states that 30,000 sheep were loaded at Idaho Falls last week for shipment to San Fran cisco. These are the sheeD that have been fed on the pulp at the sugar factory. Heretofore practically every sheep that has been sent to the market has gone east to Chicago or some other packing center of the east. The ship ment of so many in the opposite di rection gives rise to the presumption that they are destined to feed the army of either Japan or Russia in the far east. No statement, however, can be ob tained of such a destination, as the purchase of supplies in a neutral na tion for use of an army of either power would not be made directly by the government and the ultimate purpose of such supplies would not be given out. "It is not known," said Mr. Gwinn, whether the sheep are to go to Japan or Russia. It certainly looks as though they were started for the far east, how ever. At any rate they are sent in an entirely different direction than most shipments, removing that much mutton from the Chicago market, and that is what interests a sheepman."
