'FRIDAY, JANUARY 30, 1903.
Senator Smith of Umatilla has in
troduced a bill which is in line with
the suggestions of some of our East
Bide citizens the levying of a special
tax for building permanent roads. The
bill provides' that a majority of the
freeholders owning land lying In any
road district may petition the county
court asking the appointmeut of view
ers to lay out and establish a road be
tween any poiuts in such county and
stating that they desire the county to
levy a special tax of not to exceed 10
mills on the laud in the road district
for a specified period of -not more than
10 years. The petitioners must satisfy
the court that they have published a
notice of such intended application in
some newspaper in , the county for four
consecutive weeks. The courf must
then appoint three freeholders who re
side In the road district, who shall lay
out the road and return a map thereof,
showing the property that will be lia
ble to the tax for the building of the
road. The court shall then direct the
clerk to levy the amount of tax for the
number of years petitioned for, upon
all real property "located within one
mile of the road. The tax must be col
lected by the sheriff, in the same man
ner as other taxes are collected. Should
it be found that the road can be con
structed for less than the estimated
amount, the special commissioners
may order the rate of the tax reduced,
or abate it entirely. The special com
missioners have charge of the construc
tion of the road and may make all the
'contracts necessary therefor. After
the roads have been constructed by
special tax they shall be kept in repair
by the county at large. It is also pro
vided in the bill that the special com
missioners may issue bonds for perma
nent road building purposes and apply
the special road tax to the payment of
the bonds when they mature, . The
bonds must draw not more than 6 per
cent interest and must not be sold at
less than par.
The applicant. to purchase govern
uient lands is not required to go on the
land personally before he can make "bis
proofs and get his patent. That is the
decision of the United States court of
appeals In the seventh district recently
in a case that went up from the state
of Wisconsin. It was the case of Stella
W. Hoover vs. Ernest N. Balling. Mrs.
Hoover filed first but made no proof
of having gone upon the laud to ex
amine each quarter section. Sailing's
grantor filed later but went on the land
and so proved before the register and
receiver, who gave him the land. On
appeal to the courts the ruling was re
versed and the land was given to Mrs.
Hoover. This is a very important de
cision, and the court is next In author
ity to the United States supreme court.
' All over the' Eastern states the people
are aroused to a high pitch of indigna
tion jit the combines of capital to con
trol and advance prices of the various
commodities that enter into the daily
living of the people. When the public
prosecutor refuses or neglect to act, the
people, in sovereignity, are taking steps
to throttle tho hydra-headed octopus
which consumes the yery vitals of the
community in which they exist. We
can only say let the good work go on,
and by and by the people will, get
their own.
The bill to reorganize the militia of
the country passed both houses of con
gress on the 14th inst. and is now in
the hands of the conference committee.
It will soon become a law. Annual in
spections and drills are provided for
under sanction of the respective gover
nors, at which time, as well as when on
active duty, the militia is to receive the
same pay as regular army men. All
equipment is to be furnished by the
national government.
The postoflice department has decided
to furnish every farmer on the rural de
livery routes with official letter boxes
which, being the orocertv of the eovern
mout. will be protected acaiiist theft bv
authority of the federal law. Thus in
the future on rural free delivery routes
mail matter will be as safe from robbers
as when deposited in receptacles on
urban streets.
From our exchanges wo learn that
smallpox in epidemic form exists thro
ughout the Eastern states, Ohio being
especially afflicted. There were 150
cases reported in Columbus. Oue re
markable phase of the disease is the few
deaths, and that smallpox, chicken-pox
and measles seem to travel together.
Nearly all the large cities in the East
are buying coal to sell to the needy poor
as cost price. The coal dealers probably
had never read of the man who killed
the goose that laid the golden eggs.
Unless the dastardly depredations of
certain miscreants about the premises
of the little white store ceases, some one
will get hurt, lour names are known.

As was predicted in last week's notes
John Kroeger did not return alone. He
was married on laet r nday at Orchards
Washington, near Vancouver, and re
turned home the same night, at 11
o'clock. The name of his bride was
Miss Towell, who has lived long eunuch
to acquire title to a homestead. Her
former home was in the northern oart of
Maine, but she has been living West fur
hi years, coming with her parents.
fclie is an estimable lady and they
are oom to oe congratulated, John i-

notice by the tenderfoot who writes
these notes. John i old friends and neigh

happy pair. We all wish them bon vov

of the conduct of certain boys large

Hood Elver Applet at Hotel Waldorf.
A gentleman of this citv informed the
Glacier man that a friend of hif who
sometimes visits New x ork and stops at
the Waldorf, stated upon one occasion
recently, while at New York's biggest
hotel, he dined with a gentleman from
San Francisco. On the table was a fruit
plate of beautiful apples which attracted
the eyes of the Californian. Taking one
in his hand and holding it up he said:
"These must be California apples."
Calling to the waiter he said, "these
are California apples are they not?" "I
don t know, sir," lie replied, "lliey
certainly are California apples,"the gen
tleman continued, admiringly twirling
the big red beauty in his fingers. "I'll
inquire of the steward, sir," said the
waiter.
He soon returned with the information
that perhaps the apples did come from
California, for they were marked "Hood
River Apples," and if Hood River was
in California, they niuut be California

Dukes Valley Items.
Our eood weather was broken last
Saturday by ati Oregon mist that caused
Odell creek to overflow its banks and
almost cover our beautiful little valley.
Sunday was nice, hut Monday brought
the beautiful snow which did entirely
cover the valley, and the hills as well,
to a depth of 10 inches by night.
Josenh A. Knox made a flvlnir trin
to Hood Kiver last Monday. Mr. Knox
is building two grubbing machines,
one for himself and the other Cor Mr.
Fisher at Mount Hood. Mr. Knox was
the inventor of these machines, and
others have taken pattern after him
and improved the' weats parts until
now be can make a first-class grubber
with little cost. Any one wishing a
good cheap machine will do well to see
him. He intends to clear 10 acres on
his place as soon as the weather will
permit.
Dukes Valley is coming to the front.
We are soon to have free rural mail
delivery and they if some one will
come in and start a store and real es
tate office we would divide our farms
up in five and ten-acre tracts and this
valley would make homes for many
families; then we would do away with
the diggers, rattlers and coyotes, and
raise hogs or something else that would
pay better.
We have not got our school house
built yet and If we have school next
spring we will have to go to work soon.
J. A. Knox and J. O. Cameron in

clover this spring.
Mrs. C. A. Stanton and Mrs- W. G.
Dodson went to Portland lust Monday.

The custom of treating the drunkard
as a 'poor fellow," a helpless creature
who is preyed upon by saloon keepers,
having utterly failed at a reform meas
ure, the municipality of London, En
gland, has put intoeffect a new licensing
act, the provisions of which are exceed
ingly-drastic. It proposes to treat the
drunkard as a person who deliberately
incapacitates himself for usefulness, and
who renders himself unworthy of honor,
trust or the exercise of personal freedom.
It allows either husband or wife to
secure a separatton in the case of habit
ual drundenness, and allows the police
to arrest an inebriate whether he is dis
orderly or not. Upon conviction, drunk
ards are blacklisted for three years; that
is to say, if they attempt to obtain
drink within that time they are liable
to a fine, as is also the liquor vender
who supplies them with drink.
