Guard saws: 'The Lane County Pomo-
ma Grange recently resolved that the list
Of delinquent taxpayers should be pub
lished, and appointed committee TO
meet the commissioners court and ask
for the pub ication. The committee per.
formed the duty assigned them and the
court made the order. The delinquent
list runs back TO 1855. The names OF
taxpayers delinquent for that year will
be published in the Eugene newspapers
next week and the week thereafter, with
the amounts due the county. The sue
eeeding years will be published in the
order in which they come two issues
each"
WnY DoS'T They AccErT?-Probably
The only reason the Albany base ball
club has for not accepting the challenge
OF the Linns is fear OF defeat. The Linns
are composed entirely OF local players
and the Albany base bail club should
make them play ball or quit blufiing.
Manager CoWan shobld either play his
men or take them of the diamond. The
business men Of Albany have been sup
porting them 10 play all clubs in Linn
county II not outside clubs; and they
should either play ball or crawl out OF
their uniforms and give all their belong
ings 10 the Linns. The business men Of
Albany have responded generously 10 the
support OF the Albany club and expect
them 10 play lnIl and maintain their
distinction as the fret nine.
