HISTORY LIGHTENS THE APPLEGATE
That the. railroads nnd Weyeiiiaus
er timber interests may bring suit to
enjoin tho county from collecting the
special road tax voted by Iho taxpay
ers of soveral districts, is tho state
ment of W. T. Grieve, county nsses

road nud timber interests have so de
clared themselves to him.
Tho representatives of tho interests
declare that they have u decision of
tho supremo court that all fond irieet
ings to consider tho mntter must ho
called by Iho rond supervisor nnd not
by 10 per cent of tho taxpayers ns is
proUded iu tho section of tho code

the conduct of its superintendent
while he has been such officer, are.
glad to bo able to report that we find
the market in a most prosperous and
satisfactory condition nnd that Iho
work of the superintendent has been
especially efficient and effective. Ha
has .succeeded to a gratifyinj- degree
in giving satisfaction both to the pro
ducers selling products in the market
and to its patrons. He has not lim
ited his work and efforts to the duties
usually nssumed by a market master
but has in addition takea it upon him
keif lo workwith abd advise produc
ers to the end that the market might
not bo over-supplied with products
which could not be disposed of each
market day, and at the same time
should bo supplied with. tho largest
possible number and variety of dif
ferent products so that purchasers
nnd- consumers would find thero
everything necessary to meet their
demands.
Worked Under Orders
We beg leave to slain further that
tho market master has at all times
worked in hnrraony with and has fol
lowed tho directions of the market
commit lee of the city council and that
he has never in any respect deviated
from the strict letter of Iho ordinance

to his duties, the hours of keeping tho
market open, tho making of charges

particulars mul at different times in

Probably tho most historical spot
in nil Oregon today is Ihe region of
Iho llig Apph'galo whero even the

Some 12 mouths ngo n sleek gen

to tho nmouiil of honey contained iu

Yesterday wns delivery day on tho
Applegate nnd tho outraged members
of Ihe stung club in that vicinity were
unanimously repudiating tho bio

who drovo in from Iho upper Apple

dumped into it nnd says it is probably
tho most historio highway in tho
