THE TAXATION OF EVIDENCE
OF DEBT.

So long as the constitution of Oregon
remains unchanged promissory notes,
bonds and other written evidences of
debt must be taxed. They are property,
within the meaning of the constitution
and they do not belong to any of the
classes of property over which the legis-
lature has any power in the way of ex-
emption from taxation. This being the
case the law should provide, so far as
law can provide, that none of this class
of property should escape. Under our
present system, it is safe to say that not
half of the promissory notes and bonds,
held by residents of the state, are ever
listed to the assessor. Nor will they
be so long as it is perfectly safe to con-
ceal them. The law may clothe the as
SCISSOR with all the inquisitorial power on
earth yet he won't discover them A
committee of the Illinois legislature has
lately framed a bill which, if it ever be-
comes a law, will make it dangerous
thing to conceal this class of property
1t provides that every person, corpora
ton or other association, in listing their
written evidences of debt shall make
out full, true and complete statement
of all promissory notes, bonds, etc.,
owned, possessed or controlled by such
person, company, corporation or other
association, with the amount of each,
the date, the time when due, the name
of the payer, and also the fair cash value
thereof. The assessor when listing and
assessing such shall fix his stamp on the
back of each, and such stamp shall be
prima fsCia evidence that they have been
assessed. All such as are subject to as
sessment and taxation which do not
bear the assessors stamp and are not en-
tered and listed on the assessors sched-
ule shall be debarred from collection.
Whether such a law would run the
gauntlet of our supreme court we are
unable to say, but assuming that it
would be constitutional, it would make
1T safer for the holder of a note to list it
to the assessor than to conceal it. Our
present system, as everybody knows,
offers premium for concealment, and
thus the farmer who ordinarily, has none
of this class of property and who can
conceal nothing, pays an unjust proper
ton of the state and county tax. So far
as our Judgment goes the proposed H.
hnois law is step in the right direction
andSwe commend its consideration to
our lawmakers and to the grangers who
have undertaken to frame an assessment
law to be submitted to the next legisla.

Points cor young Marlners.

A grizzled individual in the attire of a
farm hand prowled along the docks all
day. With all his rusticity of attire
there was tnge of tar and bilge water
about him that added to his swagger
and stamped him Enthusiastically as son
of the sea. His movements attracted
considerable attention as he boarded
vessel after vessel and inspected the
pumps and then whistled for the ships
dog. His cruise extended from the sea
wall to Harrison street, and it was at
this point that he was accosted by one
of Franklin's runners.
Want TO ship, old MANI he asked, as
the stranger climbed down from the top
sides of the Lady Cairns.
Yes, I'm going to sea again." was the
reply, accompanied by the observation
that ranching was not what it was
cracked up to be-
''Pll get you good ship" suggested
the runner.
''Wen, you needn't bother. I've been
to sea for forty years, and mebbe 1 knows
enough to pick out ship for myself"
"What are you looking forg'
"a fat dog and rusty pump bolt, you
bloody lubber What do you 'spose I'm
looking forT" 81
"Come and have drink" suggested
the runner, who was anxious to learn
the connection between fat dog and a
rusty pump bolt and a desirable ship.
well, lads, I'll tell you" said the in
innate friend of Neptune, "and you
want to remember this, because TIL be
useful some day. It took me many
years to larn it, but it's yours for the
sake of your kindness. Mark what old
George Palmer tells you-when you
want to ship look for fat dog; that
means the old man is liberal with his
duff and you'll be well fed. Look for q
rusty pump bolt, cause that means that
the craft is right and tight and the crew
don't have to break their hearts and
backs keeping her dry IL the pump
bolt is worn and shiny look out, lads,
for she's a sieve. and your watch below
will be spent in keeping her hold dry"

Important Coal Discoveries.

A discovery was made short time ago
by Mr.. Alex Kelsay of Antelope that
may prove to be of more Importance to
the people of The Dalles than the Fossil
coal fields. 1t is that of two veins of
what is believed to be first quality of
coal which have been traced for nearly
four miles on the east bank of the Des-
chutes river, nearly opposite the Mutton
mountains in this county. Five claims
have been located already and two
weeks work done to develope the veins.
Samples of the coal are now on their
way to Portland to be tested. The locat-
ors besides the discoverer are M. J..
Anderson, j. G. Kelsay, w. F. Kelsay
and H. B. Hendricks. The latter is a
brother of the editors of the Fossil Jour
nal, the Salem Statesman and the Weston.
Leader.
The veins are about 12x3O feet and
there is said to be twice the quantity of
coal in sight that there is at Fossil. The
new Norton survey touches point only
a few miles north of the discovery. The
writer saw a sample of the coal today
and he fondly hopes it may prove equal
to the expectations of the locaters.

GRAPE CULTURE.

A movement is on foot in this city
looking to the incorporation of a joint
stock company for the purpose of buying
two or three hundred acres of land
near the city and planting it in grapes.
Under proper management there is no
doubt that the company would meet
with abundant success. Grape-growing,
In this locality, is no experiment. The
crop is safe, certain and abundant.
Thousands of acres around The Dalles
that could be bought for a practically
nominal sum would produce as fine
grapes as are grown anywhere and,
planted in grape-vines, would soon be
worth hundreds of dollars an acre. The
success of the Seufert Bros, with form
er barren sand blow should certainly
stimulate further enterprise in the same
direction. The country could have no
better advertisement than a large and
successful vineyard and the capabilities
of success so far as climate and soil are
concerned are beyond question.

In the Office of promipent architec4
in Chicago one of the draughtsmen Is a
young man who came here. from Troy,
N. Y. He lives at s,pensiop on, Wabash
avenue. One evening during cold snap
he had OCCASION to eecort:a young lady
to her home ONT Thirty hfth, street. and as
affairs with them had reaehed the Stage
where it Is pleasant to be alone together,
they walked. The girl was well bundled
up, but the young man was not dressed
for extremely cold weather. and when
they reached their destination he found
that his left ear was frozen stiff.
The next day he appeared at the Office
with his ear poulticed. and ,bandaged.
His employer noticed his condition and
remarked upon the extraordinary devo-
ton to duty he displayed. The young
man was greatly pleased, and for FIVE
minutes quite forgot the pain After he
had been at work for an hour or so he
found that his head was irresistibly
pulled sideways by the weight of the
bandage, and that it was impossible to
keep it squarely on his shoulders. But
he went on with his work
Next morning his employer was any
thing but gracious and informed him
that all Of the previous days labor would
have TO be done over again, for all the
lines were out of drawing and the houses
leaned percepubly to the north north
west. The young man attempted to draw
the front elevation of house. but found
that he could not draw a perpendicular
line, and that the horizontal lines would
not lie flat He couldn't account for
this phenomenon until one of his fellows
suggested that the bandage on his left
ear, which pulled his head over toward
his left shoulder, was the cause of it,
The young man thought the explana-
ton plausible. What did he do? Did
he lie off until his ear got wellp No.
That evening he called upon the young
lady, induced her to go out for walk,
and left his right ear exposed to the
chilling blast. When he reached home
he found that he had accomplished his
purpose, and that the other ear was
frozen as hard as a rock. After that he
had no difficulty with his houses. Chi
