Now, if our' commissioners court would do as ; they should do in the firfst place they would appoint good, industrious men men that have accomplished something for themselves and then the commissioners' court should see that they had the road work 'done at. the 'proper -time and in the proper way and, when the road super visor, made out his report, look it over carefully and not allow him pay for his work as such supervisor that he could take and hire more work done on the road with the monev that he has-re ceived as road supervisor, than he has done. It has been the case; the road supervisors have been paid enough to hire all the work done that thev have had done in their road districts by the taxpayers ot their district. I know whereof I speak. I have worked out my road , tax for the last three' rears during the last part of December, and a great many more have done the same thing and that is the reason Marion county has such bad roads. V With a good commissioners court' that would do their cart there would oe oener roaas. ine commissioners' court ought to make some provisions for taking care of our road graders, scrapers and plows, that are seen every where by the road side and thev have cost the county a great deal of monev. and there is no reason whjr they should not be housed when not in use. There will be an election soon and" tne taxpayers- will remember thrv tnmgs and it is is hoped" we may have ucir roaas in tne tuture. . TAXPAYER. Turner, Dec. 30, 1899.

Among them are Secretary Root, Cornelius Bliss, Gen. Woodford and ex-Gov. Bradley. Every section in the country has-a favorite son men tioned as a possible nominee for the second office. Of course, the number of persona who vill be spoken of in this connection will be likely to keep on growing until the time for the meet ing of the- convention," unless . in the meantime some one of them gets a de cided lead and thus impels some of the other aspirants to get out of the con test. -. , The vice presidential office has sud denly become more attractive to statesman of character and ambition than, it was In many years. At one "time it was considered something of an insult to offer the nomination fof this post to a statesman of national reputa tion who had been looking for the high er office. Many men. too, who never obenly aspired to the first place on the ticket of a great party, looked at the Vice presidential post as being too in significant for their' acceptance. A writer in the St. Louis Globe-Demo-(Jrat recalls the fact that when Silas Wright, of New York, was nominated tylth substantial unanimity for vice tfresidervt by the convention which put UP Polk of president, be sent back such a prompt and emphatic declination that the telegraph, used at tbat convention for the first time for any political gath ering, was said by he politicians of th time to have sizzled with the New Yorker's indignation. Many statesman of national stature, however, are apparently ready to ac cept the vice presidential candidacy on the republican -ticket in 4900. Of course, tha nomination in .thia Instance 'Is equivalent to election. The experience of the late Vice President Hobart shows that the office carries with it, to the f iht sort of a man, a good deal of in fluence In political affairs. Mr. Hobart was consulted freely by. the leaders of his party, be was a confidant of the president, and he was thus able to Im press nla personality on public affairs. In this way the post became the nni "wee unaer tne government In Gov. T, T. Geer. Secretary of Stale F. I. -Dunbar and State Treasurer Chas. S. Moore; composing the board of trus tees for the fctate stove foundry, held their annual meeting1 yesterday after noon. JJ W.

During the past year the employment of convicts in the prison foundry has been very satisfactory the rsaairit'e the eleven months ending November 30, 1899, from this source, being $8,110.08, while the amount due the state on ac count ofj the December labor, whidh will be paid within a few days, s $483.52. the total earnings for the year by convicts employed in the founndry being $8,603.60. i The revolving fund of the state js now larger than it has been in many years, if, indeed, not the largest in the history of Oregon as a state.
