Edwin Fuobur, one Of the timekecp-
ers for the st. Paul Boom company, of
this city, attempted suicide in this city
yesterday morning, and 1t is likely he
will find he has succeeded but too we'll.
He was living at a cheap lodging house
at 327 Washington avenue south, and in
the nelghborhood of $50 the noise of a
revolver explosion attracted the atten-
tion of the landlady and other lodgerS
of the place. Investigation discovered
young Fuobur lying on his bed with a
bullet wound in the right ear, from
which the blood flowed. The bed was
one mass of blood when the unfortunate
fellow was discovered.
The central precinct patrol wagon re-
moved the wounded man to the station,
where DR.. ii. s. Nelson attended him,
aud he subsequently ordered him taken
to the Asbury hospital 1t is understood
from the physicians of the hospital that
he is likely to die.
Fuobur is eighteen years of age, and
his parents live in Aloma, Wis. his
father being well-to-do farmer. After
being shot, and when the patrol wagon
arrived to take him away, Fuobur
walked down stairs and to the wagon.
He cOnversed freely. He said he did
not know how the shooting occurred.
but later stated that he did it himself.
He declined to state what was the rea-
son for the mad act, but it is understood
he has been Respondent for some time
over love affair. Monday afternoon
lie shot off the revolver in his room, and
when the landlady inquired the cause
for the shooting he said it was acci-
dental.

Paying Taxes.

The people of the state of Oregon
are now i'll the throes OF taXpaying
Taxes are due and in few counties
delinquent. IN 9tper counties the1
time for taxes to become delinquent
has been extended for a short time
but in no cases later than the first
of June. The taXpaying time of
Oregon comes in the wrong part of
the year. At no other time is cash
so scarce and so hard to set as it is
from February to May, 5or June.
There are no farm products to sell,
growing crops are not far enough
advanced to warrant any loans on
them, an no works of any material
size is ever starred that early. The
result is that every taxpayer is
put to it" to raise the money to
/ pay his taxes. This suould and
can be remedied by the next legis-
lature. The sentiment for this re-
form is well advanced over the
state and it is very probable that
relief will come. The late republi-
can state convention recognized the
need of this reform and adopted a
resolu. ion upon the subject, as fol-
lows: That it Is the sense OF
this convention that the coming
session of the legislature should
pass an act providing for the pay
ment OF all taxes at two different
times-one-half in the spring and
the other half In the fall, but op'
tional with the taxpayer TO pay all
in the spring in one payment if he
so desires" Such statutory pro-
visions would work no possible
hardship upon any state or county
institutions and would greatly re-
lieve the burden upon the taXyapers
If this mattei can be taken up in {
non-partisan manner THIS much
needed change can be brough
about.

We see no good reason why the
counties should be compelled to
pay the state levy before
the levy county pur-
poses is paid. 1t would rather
seem good policy to first pay the
county levy and thus turn the
money loose among the people,
than to drain the county Of money
to put in banks and loaned out to
the people at high rate ofinterest,
thus compelling them to pay in
terest on their own money. To say
the least, the state ought not to get
more than its pro rata Of the money
as it is paid in, and, besides, should
suffer pro rata loss with the county
of the taxes assessed and not col
lectable. This would simply be
justice to all. We call special at
tention TO this subject now, when
the legislative tickets are being
made up.-Arlington Record.

Grandma Matthews, of the New

foot as usual last week about the
assessors blanks. Now granny,
you say the Post printed the blanks.
We will make you a present of a
new hat if you can prove they were
printed there by any Legitimate
means of evidence. a great many
things you don't know, and the
trouble is you are too prejudiced or
thickheaded to learn. Do you
know that there is in the freight
Office at Toledo a large box OF
assessors blanks for Thos. E.
Parker from Ben. c. Irwin 4 Co.,
of Portland? Do you know that
the blanks now in use are Irwin &
Co.'s form of blanks, but they were
not printed in Portland, neither
were they printed in Toledo nol
elsewhere in Lincoln county, al
though Van cleve collected the pay
for thern1 Don't you know that
the LEADER told the exact truth
when it said that Parker ignored
the job offices Of Lincoln county,
and that Judge Blue is responsible
for Van Cleve getting the work
done outsider Don't you know
that you don't know anything
about it and that you are some

The Willamette Valley.

This steamer has been tied up at
the dock in San Francisco, held by
attachments issued to the sheriff,
since early in last December. In
the San Francisco state court last
Saturday a decision was rendered
which relieved the vessel of her
principal load Of Indebtedness.
This decision is to the effect that
attachments issued out of state
courts on marine vessels are void.
The steamer is now in the hands
of the U. S. marshal and is ibeled
for $II 900 for supplies furnished.
There are also claims aggregating
$34, 900 for coal bills and receivers

misfortune to break her leg in such
manner as to preclude the posi-

before foaling time. 1t was de-
sired to save the colt if possible,
and, as the fate of the mare was
practically decided, chances were

sacrificed for the colt, which was
saved, though respiration failed tc

was only produced by artificial
means. The colt, q fine looking

Win it be the Hoggs Again?

The signs Of the times as far as
o. P. matters are concerned, indi-
cate that the Hoggs are again liable
TO own and control the Oregon Pa
cific railroad and connecting steam
er lines. That they have been at
work earnestly to bring this about
goes without saying, At one time
it looked as though they were to be
doomed to disappointment. That
was at the time of the December
sale. Had the sale beeh confirmed
the deal would have been up and
the Hoggs left out. But the Hoggs
were schemers. They were not
disheartened, and with the aid of
the employees they prevailed upon
the court and succeeded in getting
the confirmation of the sale defeat
cd and new receiver appointed
Now there is to be another sale on
or before the end day of June, and
if rumor and indications amount to
anything, it is safe to say that the
Hoggs will be on hand ready to bid
1t will require deposit of $500, ,ooc
to bid at the sale and they have al
ready a fair proportion of this
amount signed of OH the "optiol
papers" which they hold.
Just what to expect of the June
sale is hard to determine, Th'
outside observer would be inclined
to decida that the Hoggs have thu
whip hand and will turn the tables
on the Blairs in exactly the sard'
manner in which the Blairs tried t
do them in December last
1t will be remembered that tim,
Blairs' attorneys stated when th'
sale was up for confirmation that
that sale was not confirmed the,
would never again touch the roat
in any manner. Many base tn
the opinion on this statement tina
the Blairs will not bid at the con-
ing sale. We are inclined to be
lieve that the Blairs are not goini
to cody sacrifice the millions c
dollars they have invested in thi
road after fighting over it so lon,
and hard, and we predict that
the preliminary steps 10 the sale ar
properly taken that when the Hogg
get ready to bid they will find
competitor at the sale with none
+ enough to make it interesting t
say the least.
