such sums as they may deem necessary.

II Does rot Differ very Materially from
the Old.

the Old.
A cops of the new road law has
been received. Following are its prin-
cipal features:
The boards Of commissioners arc
required, at least once year, to di.
vide their counties into road districts.
They are also required to appoint, at
the April term OF the Board, super.
visor for each road dist, let.
The supervisor is required to assess
two days work, to be performed by
every male person between 81 and SO
years of age, residing in his road dis
trict; but such person so assessed may,
in lieu OF each days work to be per-
formed by him, pay to the supervisor
$3.50 to be expended en- the roads;
in Custer and Alturas counties, how.
ever, per capita tax of ~ each is
to be collected from al! persons liable
to poll-tax, in lieu of the road tax.
In addition, not less than one nor
more than six mills on the dollar is to
be levied on all the taxable property
Of the county, for the benefit Of the
road tax fund.
A days work on the public road
shall be of eight hours.
Supervisors are required to erect, at
the forks of every road crossing in
their districts, guide or finger board
directing the way and specifying the
distXce to the next town or public
place.
If any county road or public bridge
shall be impaired, obstructed, or dan
gerous, the supervisor Of the district
shall forthwith have the necessary re.
pairs done; provided, that where the
estimated cost Of opening a new road
or building a bridge shall exceed $500,
the County Commissioners shall ad-
yertise for bids for four weeks; in the

ever, the supervisor shall perform such
work and submit his bill therefor, duly

THE HOLLADAY ESTATE.
A Request that $157,15O be Forfeited
TO the MultnOMnh School Fund.
Portland Daily News.

Portland Daily News.l
District Attorney John M. Gearin
tintervened" in the case of Ben. Hol-
laday VS.. Joseph Holiday ct al, for
the purpose OF having $l57,l50 for
feited TO the school fund of Multao.
NAH county. The intervention is "a
document of many sheets, and sets
forth that the first promissory note
made by Ben Holiday to Joseph was
in October, 1871, and was for $lQO, 900.
This note was secured by mortgage
on street car company stock, the vii.
lamettc Real Estate Company stock,
the Willamette Steam Mills and other
property. On the 25th of November,
1876, q new note was made out by
benjamin for Sl63,345. Gearin in
his intervention" denies that before
the execution of said note Ben amin
Holiday owed the sum of $lG3,345.
or any other SUM more than the prip.
cipal, 100000, and interest to the
amount of $5l,l5O. But the interest
was wrongtally computed by COM
pounding it at the end of each month,
and this constituted the usury. 1t is
further alleged that Joseph knew that
the indebtedness did not exceed the
aforementioned sum. The notes, it
is alleged, were made IN this State,
but were dated San Francisco, Cal.
and made payable there for the sole
purpose Of escaping taxation. 1t is
further declared that the amount le-
gally due on the note-Sl5,, 100
should be forfeited because of the
aforementioned usury for the use of
the school fund. That the sales and
transfers of portions of the estate be
held to be mortgages and as much of
said property as may be necessary, be
sold by order of the Court, aud the
proceeds escheat to the school fund,
1t is also further asked that if there he
any balance left after the sum of $l5l..
5000 10 realized, that it be applied
to the payment ei the debts of the
estate.
Should the ''interyeution" Of Dis.
tgict Attorney Gcarin turn out as
above outlined, and the amount asked
for be forfeited to the State, it would
be remarkable ending of IL singula,
suit. Tie District Attorney will Sc.

Facts Relating to the Draft Horses OF
France.

While some people in America call
all horses imported from France Nor.
mans, it Is a fact that there is no breed
ia France called by that name BY the
French people; the name Norman,
therefore, is purely American. The
principal breeds of France are known
as Percherons and Boulianais. The
Percherons are the most highly priced
of all French races, and all depart.
ments OF France go to the Perche for
stations toimprove their local breeds.
The Percheron Stud Book of France
is published under the authority of
the French Government and admits
only animals of pure Percheron origin
and birth, established by their pedi-
grees and the pedigrees of their ances.
tors for generations. The fact that no
recorded pedigrees can be furnished
with any Of the more common breeds
of France, explains the eagerness of
many importers in insisting that all
horses imported from France are alike,
and that pedigrees are useless.
1t is a well known fact that what a
man gives for horse over from $500
to $SOO-the price OF good grade
is paid for purity OF blood; and where
the seller is not able to give the re-
corded pedigree of the animal sold as
evidence of additional value, he has
40 right to ask it. With these facts
before him, no intelligent man will
buy horse imported from France UNI
less he is recorded with his pedigree
in full in the stud book in France, and
the importer furnishes with his bill of
sale the French certificate of rcgis,ra-
ton, as this is his only guarantee Of
safety, large number Of horses of
unknown blood being imported to this
country and sold as pure bred.
