IahaMtanta mt Martoae Slater C coaly Now He.pt: loae of All Solicitors i aad L-Hlaata A coa t. K - ; V : I ' ' I nail. March 28th.) . During the ; past three months the people ih Linn county have been very thoroughly and systematically "worked by not less than a halt dozen sleek op erators., each of I whom introduces a novel plan that readily finds takers and the; confidence ooerator profits acord ingly. Inhabitants of Linn county have een paying to dearly for their experi ence of later thar they are naturally A crv suspicious of all solicitors and agents engaged fn even a legitimate vocation, unless fhey are able to pro duce the good promptly upon the re fest of the prospective patron. A representative of he Statesman and the Pacific Homestead 1 who recently re turned from a partial canvass of .Linn coiintv reports these conditions. One of the most successful -rascals was a soap agent and he is said to have carried away a barrel of money. This slippery individual offered for sale a box 01 soap containing three bars for each customer to select as an ac companying present a 23-yard Bntssel carpet pattern or a fine Persian rug, of which the versatile agent carried an extensive sample line.. Fanners by the wholesale invested in the -soap, relying on the fellow's assurance that the car pet or the rug. whichever they had se lected, would be subsequently forward ed . -ta them. This fellow very system atically worked the county and found it a very profitable avocation. The soap was of an inferior grade and could be purchased anywhere in the retail market for 10 cents per box. 'Another fcBow, representing himself to be a representative of an association 01 wholesale. dealers, found a bonanza in his operations among Linn county's honest and industrious agriculturists. An initiation or rather a membership fee of $10 was asked the unsuspecting farmer for a five year's membership in the association, which enabled him to purchase "his sugar "ami all staple gro ceries, machinery and supplies at ac tual wholesale rates. The advantage fuch an arrangement Would afford the iarmcr, caused many to give the $10 in payment for a lot. of worthless paper, certificates of membership, etc. This fellow worked his graft very extensive ly in Linn county.; 'A third rascal posed as a subscription agent. He represented that he was au thorized to take subscriptions for all Daoers. magazines, etc., but he would always size up his customer before ap proaching him for a subscription. To a dentist he would name over some of the leading dental publications, to a blacksmith he recommended some farm paper especially of interest to that in dividual: for a physician he enumerated a list of medical periodicals, etc. In fact, he could supply any paper or mag azine for which the prospective sub scriber expressed a preference. lie was most accommodating and would, apparently; even discommode himself in order that the order of his customer might be supplied. It is needless to say that the receipt the bogus agent is sued in rctiira for 4 he subscription money.; was all the subscriber received. If the victim did not care to subscribe for a year for any of Ih publications, a six months' subscription or for a less time was as thankfully received. These fakirs were traveling down the valley and have probably invaded Marion county by this time. People will do well to give, these indivduals a wkle berth. They should make such purchases through the regular avenues of trade. The Brownsville creamery plant was recently buncoed out of a carload of cheese. - The mill at Brownsville failed recent ly, but present indications are that the farmers, who had grain on storage there, will realize fully on their de posits. The Black Elevator 1 Company, conducts warehouses all ' over Linn county, i invohed in litigation and the prospects of the" farmers receiving their deposits. The Black Eclevator Company, which conducts warehouse all oyer Linn county, is involved in litigation, and the prospects of the farmers receiv ing their grain or the market valuation thereof ate said to be anything but nat tering. A pretty good joke, is related on one of Brownsville's, druggists. He is an nventive genius, and during recent years -has perfected numerous mven- ions of real worth. He recently- com pleted the construction of a churn with which he was greatly pleased, feeling confident that it would prove a pro nounced mccess and greatly facilitate work in family dairies. .When his churn wa ready for the initial' tests he called at the home ot a neighbor where he 3iad arranged tor a supply of cream to make the desired test. The good farmer's wife perpetrated a joke on the confident druggist and substituted whitewash solution for the Jersey cream that had been ordered. It is re ported the druggist actually manipu lated the dasher of his churn for four hours before lie discovered the substi tution. IN GOOD CONDITION. The an nual business meeting of the members of the First Presbyterian church was held Monday evening. The financial report of the board of directors shows the church to be in good condition. During the past year the expenses of the church have all been met and an old debt of $874.07 was fully cancelled, leaving the society entirely out of debt and with 12!-2 cents in the treasury with which to begin the fica1 year.

Oaly Thirty-tare Riders Tana Fr Settled witk th Sherlff-Moaey Koodoo ; - e for New Paths. (From Daily. March 28th.) , The collection of the special bicycle tax for the year 1000, to be used in building bicycle paths throughout Mar ion county for use of the! wheelmen, is now under way, and has been for nearly two weeks, but wheelmen appear to be very slow to avail themselves of the privilege of paying theit mites toward the construction of good roads, to be used by -wheelmen exclusively, and which, if they are constructed with care, will be ia good condition to be used by riders 350 days out of the 305 in a year. Eleven days have passed since the' sheriff opened the bicycle tax books, with a full supply of tag's, and announc ed himself to be in readiness to collect the special assessment. but only thirty two wheels 3iave thus'; far been regis tered, and so slow are the wheelmen in coming, that is is feared- that in the ma jority of cases the tax will become de linquent, and wholesale seizures of bi cycles will be the result. Last year, at the close of the eleventh day of the collection of taxes. 364 wheels were registered, and Sheriff Durbin was crowded by wheelmen who were all anxious to list their wheels and secure the little metal tags. , .. - . There is no special reason for this apathy among wheelmen, fdr there is very little inclination to resist the oper ation of the law this year, though some of the riders hi one or two country towns threatened resistance last sea son. On the other hand, all seem to be pleased with the provisions of the law. and delighted with the results at tained last year, when, at comparative ly little expense , to each wheelman, nearly 100 miles of excellent bicycle paths were constructed in Marion coun ty, connecting the principal points with excellent roadways for use ot the wheelr men. It is believed that, in the course of a few week 'a rush will In-'gin for the sheriff's othec, and the bicycle riders, awakening to the fact thai without bi cycle tax no wheel paths can be con structed, will, hasten and pay their "as sessments and thus aid the work of ex tending these roadways.

Church Society of Louisville, Ken tucky, Adopts a Novel Plan for Raising Needed' Funds. . Various are the plans adopted by re ligions denominations ami their auxil iary societies in order to raise needed funds, but to the young people of a Louisville, Kentucky, church, belongs the . credit of conceiving one of the most- novel schemes oi the kind ever utilized. "A. D. Charlton, of the Northern Pacific, is engaged in a somewhat un usual undertaking." says the Portland Oregonian. "It appears that a number of young people belonging to a church society at Louisville, Kentucky, have hit upon a novel scheme to raise funds, and have enlisted Mr. Charlton in their plan. They propose early in April to hold a church fair, at which will be sold at auction a large number of handsome silk handkerchiefs. Each of these re presents, a state of the Union. The. one representing Oregon was recently sent to Mr. Charlton. It is large, and of white silk. ; beautifully embroidered in colors. . The center-piece shows a dra gon, as typical of Oregon's strength in the sisterhood of states. Also a pea cock is shown, typifying the - pride of the state. 'Mr. Charlton sent the hand kerchief to Governor Geer. He had the great seal eff the state placed upon the handkerchief, and then sent it back here. It arrived yesterday. Mr. Charl ton proposes still further to add to the decorations by having two handsomely cmbroulered flags, with the staffs cross ed. appliqued to -handkerchief. 'Above the tlajjs will appear an eagle, done in embroidery, and below the legend, 2d Ore.. U. S. V..' will appear. (At the bottom the word 'Oregon' in large let ters Will be embroidered. "The handkerchief was sent to Mr. Charlton by George V. Weedon, tick et agent at the Union Passenger Sta tion in Louisville, who is prominent in church circles there. Governor Geer, in returning the handkerchief, sent with it a letter certifying to the fact that he had ordered the great seal of the state impressed upon it. Whoever buys the handkerchief will get a choke souv enir." AN EXTREMELY BUSY DAY. Counity Recorder J. H. Roland R ceived Numerous Documents Three Patents Filed. In County; Recorder J. H.
