ILLEGAL TAX COLLECTING.
It Is attempted to Justify letting
out the collection of delinquent taxes
la Marlon county since 1802 to a pri
vate collector and a would-be political
rjoes.nt 15 and 20 per cent commission,
because that la the way It Is dono In
Multnomah county. That Is the de
fense made by the organ of the boss.
There Is no showing made tint
there Is any legal authority for farm
lag out the collection of taxes. The
law makes the sheriff the only tax
collector. The Turks farm out the
collection of taxes against the Ar
menians to non-rcsldent Jews. The
process In Marlon county It not much
more respectable, and has no more
warrant of law.
The very act of putting the delin
quent tax rolls in the hands of a
private collector, and allowing him to
go Into the sheriff's oulce and handle
the books Is an outrage. The sheriff Is
the sworn custodian of the books and
should politely show the door to any
person not clearly authorized by law
to handle those records, and If he did
cot go put him out of the office.
A tremendous power and advantage
Is put In the hands of a private person
when he Is made tax collector. He Is
put la an official position oyer the
citizen and his property, gains In
formation that may bo used by him or
those who employ him to dispossess
people ol their homes, and can use the
Information he gains to enrich him
self or his friends, to say nothing
about using It for political purposes.
Tho county court of Marlon
county probably did what seemed to
them light in attempting in this
way to collect delinquent taxes.
But let us ask why In Marlon county
the law for collection of taxes Is not
enforced? Why has there been no de
linquent tnxsulc In four or flyo year.
Why r the collection of taxes drag
ged out a year behind time?
Why are not tho taxes declared de
linquent according to liw and all
compelled to pay up nllko and the
Ustsjill cleaned up by September 1, of
each year? Why Is It that the poor
munand mlddlo class of taxpayers
pay up promptly and the largo tax
payers hold back their money from
tho county from six to eighteen
months ? Is this Just enforcement of
tho law ? Why docs tho samo law
work differently In Marlon, from
what It dues in Linn, Lane, Douglas
and othor counties, whore tho law is
enforced, taxes uro collected, and de
linquent lists are mado out, adver
tised and sold ? Is thero not u nigger
In tho woodpile, who keeps Marlon
county out of tho use of tax money
and compels pnyment of Interest on
warranto for at least a year t
It would seem that thero could not
be a more shiftless expensive, unfair,
unjust Illegal proceeding than the
way the laws for assessing property
and collcotton of taxes 11 ro enforced,
It Is hoped tho present county offi
cials In tho legislature will put a
stop to It, But to cap tho climax nf
all, atid put tho cap shsaf on tho
Iniquitous system, delinquent tuxes
are farmed out to n prlvato scalper.
The well
known poem,
"Curfew Shall
Not Hlne To

which a younor wo.
man by banging to
the curfew bell saves the
life of her lover condemn,
cd to be executed at the
iluirlnft of the curfew, la
only one 01 a
thoutand strik
ing instances of
how a woman
will dare everything' for
love.
Women are readier to
make heroic aacriGcca
than they are to take
the commonplace,
everyday precautious
which Insure their great
cat happiness. Most wo.
men ore careless about
their health. They for
get that physical weak
ness and disease will
wreck the fairest chance
in life and shut them
out completely fiotu
happy womanhood and wifehood.
Weak, bilious, dyspeptic women are
robbed of their natural attractiveness and
capacity. They lose healthy color and
energy and ambition. The blood bccomei
poor and thiu and laden with disease-Hernia.
The true antidote for this condittou I Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, It acts
directly upon the digestive power and the
liver, creating pure, red, healthy blood fret
from bilious Impurities, it renovates every
organ and tissue of the body, building up
bard, clastic flesh and muscular strength
and imparting nerve power and permanent
vitality, which malt extracts do not give.
Mr, itlla Howell, of Derby, Perry Co.. Iud.,

What can bo dono about this letter
matter? A suit should be brought
to stop !t.,ThlA paper has shown It up.
Tho suit can be brought by the dis
trict attorney or by a taxpaper,and
Judges Boise or Burnett are not the
men to favor such Illegal grafts on
the Treasury. The Journal has a
promise of ablo legal counsel to push
a caw?, and a prominent taxpayer will
allow his name to be ujeJ, if the dis
trict attorney will not bring the suit.
The expense need not be great, but
the taxpayer who brings the suit
should not be compelled to put up the
costs. Some one should receive sub
scriptions to bring the suit to enjoin
the Illegal collection of dcllnqucut
taxes, or receive the names of tax
payers who will unite to defray the
costs of the case In the circuit court.
Th apecal, In the abicncc of all law In
the case, would have to be taken
by the private collector.
TIIE NICARAGUA CANAL.
Tho views of the preshhut upon the
building of the Nicaraguan canal are
quite indeterminate. lie favors the
building of the canal, but how and by
whom? On these points he leaves us
to flounder In the dark. lie ocemingly
Inclines with some favor toward the
Maritime Canal Company, that holds
a concession for the building of the
canal upon which Senator Morgan
wants to build, and upon which the
bill now pending in the senate Is hung.
But to subsidize this canal company,
to permit the Issue of watered securi
ties would be but to repeat the scan
dals of the Pacific railroad construc
tion, rob the government in construc
tion, rob the people for all time a'tcr
for the profit of the promoters of this
stock watering scheme, who hope to
enrich themselves by getting the gov
ernment to guarantee the bonds of
the company that can be sold for
onoughlto meet tho cost of construc
tion, then Issulug fictitious capital to
thcmsclycs and charging the users of
the canal exorbitant rates that will
make possible tho paying of dividends
on such ficticious capital.
Tho government cannot ulTord to bn
a party to any such nefarious scheme
If tho people build the canal the pco-
plo should be secured tho advant
ages. This Is common sense nnd this
being so, common sense demands
that the people, that Is, the govern
ment, should build the canal and
operate it. If It cannot be so built,
'wo say with .Congressman Hepburn,
better that it he not built at nil. But
It can be so built; Just no soon as the
opposition In Congress raised by those
hoping to slmro tho profit to be
derived from building nn ovorcapl
tallzcd canal and operating It on a
monopoly basis can be satisfied,
We wish the President had tho cour-
ago to help stlllo such opposition, But
Judging from his message It socmcth
ho has not.
Tlioro Is only ono way to build tho
canal. If It Is to bo built, .the govern
ment of tho United States must build
It, and If the United State builds It
tho United States must own It. This
Is well slated by Congressman Hep
burn, of Iowa, who, as chairman of
tho houso committee boforo which
tho Nlcaruguan canal qucsllou must
come, can doubtless exorcise a most
healthful Influence In tho shanlng or
legislation. Ho docs not see any
Justice In the proposition of tho Mar
itime Canal Company and fathered by
Scuator Morgan, that the United
States tuke tho risks and responsibil
ities of construction und hand tho
canal over to such company, to bo
managed and used for tho enrichment
of schemers putting no money Into tho
construction of the canal, but cajoling
tho United States Congress to vote
such money, or what amounts to tho
samo thing, guaraiitco securities
upon which tho money can bo raised,
Thus, says Mr, Hepburn, tho canal
company may as well conclude that
! tho canal will ultimately be built b
.government money that will bo owned
I und operated by thu government or
not le built at all. He further declares
that tho United Statos must acquire
from Nlcuragua tho soil upou which
the canal Is cousiruotcd, for "(hero
must be on shadow of light for any
othor nation to Interfere In the future
with tho management of tho canal
any more than they could Interfere
with the navigation of tho Delaware
River. ... We cannot make ap
propriations of American money to
build a canal on soil othor than our
own,"

DR. WURTH'S OPINION.
OF THE NEW DISCOVERY IK
MEDICINE.
A Remarkably Successful Remedy for
Dyspepsia, Indigestion and
Stomach Troubles,
Dr. Wurth In commenting on recent
discoveries In medicine said: There
Is enno which Is certain to be so
valuable and far reaching In benefit
as Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets, the
new stomach remedy; I say far reach
ing, because people little realize how
Important a sound stomach and vigor
ous digestion Is to every man, woman
and child.
Indigestion Is the starting point ot
consumption, heart dleoasc, Brlght's
disease, diabetes, nervous prostration,
liver troubles; why Is this so? Simply
because every nerve, muscle and tis
sue In our bodies Is created and nour
ished from tho food wo cat. If that
food Is, by reason ot a weak stomach,
compelled to lie lor hours, n sour, fer
menting mass of half digestc food, it
poslons the blowl and nervous system,
creates gas which distends the stom
ach and bowels, causing pressure on
tho heart, lungs and other organs, and
seriously Impeding their action.
He says further, the point to direct
attention Is not the nerves, nor heart,
nor lungs, nor kidneys, but the stom
ach, thu first, cause of all the mischief.
The remedy to use for Indigestion
and weak stomachs Is not some ca
thartic, but a remedy which will di
gest the food, Increase tho flow of
gastric Juice, absorb the gases, and
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets will ac
complish exactly this result In any
case of stomach trouble, because these
tablets are composed of the digestive
acids, aseptic pepsin, Golden Seal and
bismuth, pleasant to taste, and- not
being a patent medicine, can be used
b7 anyone with perfect sarcty. I be
lieve Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will
cure any form of Indigestion and
stomach trouble except cancer or
stomach.
Full sized packages of Stuart's Dys
pepsia Tablets am sold by druggists
at 60 cents or by mall from F. A.

very keen In a way; when he Is par
ticularly - sensitive with regard to
what he considers his lights. His
standard In this particular Is apt to
be so vertical as to lean oyer back
wards.
Sometimes the attitude of the
teacher (or a teacher) In class is dif
ferent from what It Is out. of class or
out of school often unconsciously so.
The teacher docs or says something
which touches or offends tho boy's
morbid sensitiveness. It Is some
thing to which the teacher attaches
no Importance, never thinks of again,
yet the boy broods over It and Is an
taRonlzcd. The teacher's suavity and
friendliness out of class Is put down
by tho pupil as hypocrisy or pretence,
He takes no stock in It nnd perceives
It In more or less Indlfforenco or 111
concealed contempt, while muttering
to himself perhaps, "You can't fool
mo with your 'soft soap.' "
The boy of course mlsudgcs the
toauhor, but the real dlllluulty Is that
the teacher railed to study and know
the boy. It Is the toucher's buslncsw
to know his pupils and help them to
healthy normal staudards, und to
correct and charitable ludgments.
Teachers fail to discriminate be
twecutholr pupils as to their varying
need, attitudes, more or lets warped
