UU1IITT0BEIIAITY.
Tho peoplo of tills state, who feel
that they are not permitted to pay
taxed enough ought to lie gratllled
at tho work or tho Stuto Hoard
of Equalizillon. They uio reported
to have raised tho slate assessment
$25.000,000,uddlng ton per cent tothe
valuation of ull real estute,und from
leu to Ilfty per cent to nearly every
thing in sight.
There ure u great many people In
Oregon who clamor for such changes
in tlio assessment laws as will per
mit them to contribute more liber
ally to stute und county tuxes.
While this big cut In tho pooketa of
the tux payers will not meet their
demuud for more tuxes, it should
go quite a ways towurd satiating
their appetite. Thoy will probably
not be satisfied until the laws are
so fixed that every bit of nronertv
In the stute will be mudu to ylold no
incomo to tho tux gather for overy
dollar of its face value.
The Stute Board of Equalization
has added another $10 to overy $100
of tuxes putd on real estate. As the
mujority of peoplo who hold unim
proved lands uro land poor In ull
parts of our country, and not in
Oregon ulono, the tux lucreusors
ought to no happy. Tho lnud tux
in a now stalo Is tho hardest to pay.
Tho Stute Bourd Is making u record
In piling up the tux burden.

The iiostofllco dopnrtinont nnHclputcs
Hint lis bushiest tint! proltts will bt great
ly atigtnontod by tho adoption of hottso
letterboxes. In tlio St. Louis rmito where
thoy wore tried for ton days 000 pieces
of mail mutter wcro collo'trtod during
tltut period, nimlnst Si!,1) tilocns ninllod in
regular post boxes of tho sumo district in
tlio ton days provlotis. This fourfold in
cronso could only havo been duo in part
to interest in tho novelty,
Assuredly wherever people hnvo nil
tho facilities of a postoflieo In their
homes, including those of a stamp win
dow nnd a mail box, thoy will wrlto
many nioro letters, Anothor point in
favor of tho house box system is that it
will practically do away with tho rob
bing of letter boxes. It will not bo
worth a thief's whllo to attack n private
box, nnd If ho did so ho would proba
bly bo caught. Tho business of smash
ing post boxes and fishing in thorn with
something sticky on tho end of a string
will not bo profitably nppllcnblo in tho
privato contrivances,
Patterns of tho latter will bo mado
with two horizontal slits in tho door
pinto, nbqvo and below tho mall slot.
By this dovico a person's naino nnd num
ber can bo put on his pluto in a fow mo
ments, ench metal letter having a doublo
flango on tho back of it liko n patent
paper fnstoucr, which Is thrust through
the slit and sprend bohind tho plato, bo
as to seenro tho lettoi1. Tho owner's
nnino is quickly spelled out with lottors
attached equidistantly nlong tho slit.
With numbers it Is tho samo way. It hns
been suggested that luminous targets
Bhall bo used to cutch tho postmnn's eyo
after dark.
Many bttUdora nro nlready introduc
ing provisions for letter boxes into tholr
opeciflcations for dwolllngs nnd business
houses to bo erectod. It is nntloipnted
that boforo long thoy will bo n fonturo
of tho construction of houses gonerally.
If desired thoy can bo built into tho
wall, Some day tho postoflieo depart
ment may furnish boxes froo, but nt
present it has no fund for that purpose.
It may bo nsked, Whoro in rural dis
tricts does tho houso letter box como In?
Why, on tho fcucopost by tho public
thoroughfuro, whoro It is easily uccessi
blo to tho family and to tho mounted
lettor carrier tho lnttor a bright lad
whoso mothor is striving to raise chick
ens und half n dozen fatherless children
on a truck farm. Tho boy gots ton dol
lars, perhaps fourteen dollurs, a week
for himsolf und horso, riding fiftoen
miles a day over country roads, stopping
at farmhouses, stores nnd blucksmith
shops nlong tho way, nnd putting into
each littlo lxx, fastened securoly to
porch or wall, lottors, nowspapors and
muiiou merciiunulso.
Probably tho tnrgot is up. Ills koy
opens tho collection compartmont, nnd ho
takes out missives of lovo nnd business.
These go Into his saddlebags, nnd tho
envelope containing ono dollnr nnd
a request for forty-eight two cent
etamps, two boing cnncolod for tho con
venience nlTordod, is thrust into his
breast pockot as ho rides nwny to tlio
noxt placo. Cor. Uostou Trnnscript.
leotrle Light and Growing Plants.
M. O, Bonuior hns contributed to tho
Purls Academy of Bclenccs a memoir on
the Influence of electric light on tho
utructuro of horbaccous plunts, boing a
complement to his note on tho effects of
elect t Jo light ou trees. Tho plants were
placed near nro lights (1 to 4 meters
distant) for sevon mouths, the excess of
ultra violet radlutiou being cut off by
glass shades. In such conditions tho
majority of plants exhibited intenso ac
tivity of assimilation, and some showrd
oxuborant vegetution, but n largo pro
portion suffered more or loss uud somo
died off,
A fow adapted themselves to tho con
ditions, but us a general result it was
found that tho continuous electric light
produces grout development in plants
protected by gloss, und renders them
intensely green. Thu direct light, how
over, is prejudicial to tho normal dovel
opmeut of thu tissues, owing to the no
tion of tho ultra violet rays, oven when
the plants uro about ten foot from the
