The above cut illustrates an AUTOMATIC | WATER GATE, to regulate and keep in subjection the rise of water in canal, due to an over-abund ant flow, or to sudden rises in the canal owing to l severe rains storms.
 | It is particularly valuable to have such Water Gate placed in lower bank of canal, at such points | along its line Where there Ravines, Gullies Arroyos, Foot Hills, Buttes, Tableland, as any rains or storms bring down at such points surplus | of water that is very dangerous to the banks of canal. The Waste Gate, however, will prevent such damage, as it is
 | SELF-ACTING AND A PERFECT SAFETY VALVE Relieving the canal at short intervals, of it's sur plus water, thus preventing the washing away of banks, and causing great damage generally, not alone to canal, but property owners all along the line, who may suffer more or less damages there after for the want of water owing to the damaged condition of canal and while such repairs are being made. Not only is it valuable to relieve canal of its surplus water, to prevent damage and ex- pense, but by it's use the first cost of canal con- strucion will be materially lessened as the banks need not be made so high or wide
 The device is extremely simple and compara-
 
 There is pipe fastened to an opening in the vertical gate, l. When the body of water rises to the level of the upper end of pipe, 2, water runs freely into the tank, 3, which is immediately filed thus overbalancing the weight, 4. which is on the other end of lever, 5, thus forcing open the gate which suddenly relieves the canal of large sur plus of water. When body of water recedeS below a certain level, no more wateris admitted to the tank; it therefore enipties itself by small faucet opening, 6, at the bottom; this being done, the weight overbalances tank, and brings down the lever, which, being rigid to the swinging gate, closes it. This operation continues at short in tervals, so long as the body of water keeps rising over certain level. The lever, gate, pipe and tank are all rigid, and hinge, pivot, a hori- zontal shaft. The gate, Hume or bex can be made any height width, length desired. The gate can be hinged between any bulkhead without box. The Water Gate is Perfect Safety Valve, and is to body of water what safety valve is to steam. They can be made any size corresponding with body of water and size of canal. It is secured by letters patent, and for sale only by

The County Commissioners have
fixed the tax levy in Thurston county
for the current year at $l29, 032, which
includes the $25,OO6 apportioned to
this county as its share of the burden
OF State taxes. 1t will be slightly in
creased, however, before final adjust.
ment, by small levies for bond sink
ing fund, military expenses, etc. The
ratio of taxation will be enough higher
even with the lower valuations of pro-
perty, to make the amount paid by the
taxpayer about the same as last year.
The hope of a lighter burden on lower
assessment, vanishes before an array
of stern facts. All taxes will be due
on the second Monday in January, and
all taxes, delinquent and otherwise,
must be paid to the County Treasurer.
On April LIST they become delinquent,
and penalty Of 5 per cent. and 20 per
cent. interest attaches until paid.
The County Treasurer is made person.
ally responsible for the collection of
personal taxes, and the law provides
that within certain period after they
become delinquent he shall distrain
sufficient goods and chattels to cover
the delinquency. Then within 10
days after seizure they shall be sold.
Failure on his part to enforce the pro-
vision for collection makes him per-
sonally responsible, and the amount is
charged up against him and deducted
from his salary.
In accordance with the law, the
Board of County Commissioners yes
terday proceeded to levy the taxes for
the purpose of raising a revenue for
State, county, school, road and other
purposes as shown upon the assess.
ment for the year 1898.
1t WAS ordered that for the purpose
of raising revenue for State purposes,
the amount certified by the State Au-
ditor rs levied and apportioned upon
and to this county by the State Board
of Equalization, 1925, DOG, be levied as
the State tax upon all the taxable
property.
For the purpose of raising a revenue
for general county purposes, the fol-
lowing itemized estimate of expenses
for the year, to be levied upon the as
sessment OF 1898, as equalized by the
county board, WAS adapted, to.wit:
For general county purposes. includ-
ing the salaries and expense of county
officers and offices, stationery, print
ing, light, fuel, water, county poor,
road views, Jail repairs, miscellaneous
and interest on bonds, the board levied
tax Of $GO,776.
For the purpose of raising revenue
for general road and bridge fund, q
tax of $40, 900 was levied.
An additional tax of $40 900 was
levied for the segregated road fund.-"
This tax is levied on all taxable prop
erty in the county outside of the cor
porate limits Of incorporated cities or
towns in the county.
For the purpose of raising revenue
for school purposes it was ordered that
So, 500 be levied on all taxable prop
erty in the county.
The sum of $3.50 was levied for the
creation of fund for the relief OF hon.
orably discharged and INDECENT Union
and Mexican soldiers, sailors and mar.
liners.

REMOVAL OF, A prominent LAND

MARK.-The warehouse at the end Of
Long wharf is to be removed by the
city to the foot of Franklin street,
where it will be used for storing the
city's tools and implements, which
have become so numerous as to re-
quire special care. The removal" of
the building to the two large scows
that will he used for its transportation
will be very simple, merely placing the
lighters under the building when the
tide is low and cutting away the
stringers on which the building rests,
when the rise of water removes the
weight from the piles to the scows.
