OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION.

The annual statement Of the county
treasurer is published in this issue. 1t
should be carefully read by every tax
payer, as it contains much valuable in
formation in regard to our financial
condition. 1t shows total bonded debt
Of $9S, 600 drawing interest at six, seven.
and eight per cent. together with q
floating debt of $49,59o So making q
total indebtedness of STAT 500. s., with a
cash balance in the treasury OF IS, 59i.sS,
leaving net indebtedness of sl3S,635 53.
The total revenue for the year 1894 is
SIS, 790.38. The people are interested
in knowing where this money all goes
to and where savings can be made that
will reduce the burdens of taxation. A
careful perusal of the repor. will give
them good idea, as it is very compre-
hensive but does not include the report
9th auditor showin: that district corr
expenses, not including sherif's fees
and mileage, amount to $10,596 Is.
OF this amout q ,663 50 was paid to jur-
ors. The November election cost 49,
86i.50, not including sherid-s fees and
mileage. There we're s. AS. so expended
OH roads, and several thousand more
went to justices and constables. From
these figures it will be seen that in the
items above mentioned we have ex-
pended over s2l 900, principally in court
and road expenses. With these figures
before US it is evident the present board
must exercise the utmost economy in
conducting county business. especially
in granting petitions for costly roads
and in auditing the bills OF justices and
constabies, and the legislature should
provide relief from the enormous court
expenses. Instead of 40 jurors to serve
through the term on the regular panel
the number should be cut down to
twenty. The county debt is steadily
increasing and something must be done
to check it.

ing the law enacted ut the last session

borrowers in the state. The populists
opposed its repeal, voting against it
solidly.

office of state boiler inspector.

DEATH OF JUDGE HOAR.-Judge E.
r. Hoar died in Concord, Mass, his
home, on the evening of the 31st ult.
Ebenezer lockwood Hoar, was born
in that city, Feb. 2Ist, 1916. He
served a term in the upper house OF
the State Legislature in 1876, and was
Judge of the Court of Common Pleas
from 1919 to 1855 and Judge OF the
Supreme Judicial Court from 1859 to
1863. In the latter year he WAS ap-
pointed Attorney General OF the
United States by Gen. Grant. This
position he held abou. a year, when
he became q member of the high
joint commission which negotiated
the treaty OF Washington between
the United States and Great Britain,
in 1871. The settlement of this treaty
OF Washington was one of the most
notable events of the 10Th century,
disposing, as it did, OF five different
subjects OF controversy between Great
Britain and the United States, some
of which dated from the very procla-
nation of American independence
and were perpetually arising to the
surface of the discussion to vex and
disturb the good understanding be-
tween the kindred nations. Another,
and scarcely less conspicuous service,
was his influential agency in arrang-
ing for the first loan made by the
United States government at a critical
period of its history. He was one OF
the few patriotic citizens who, in con-
nection with Secretary Chase and
President Lincoln, negotiated this i'm.
portant operation with capitalists of
Boston, New York and Philadelphia,
instead of going abroad for assistance.
Mr.. Hoar was presidential electoral
large in 1872, and was elected to the
43d Congress as Republican.

What is getting into the preach
81 l. Il query frequently made. since
the Mar,ton scandal has been supple
mentcd hy a still greater breach OF the
moral code by Rev. J. c. Reed, a
preacher OF the Baptist persuasion, in
East Portland, one day this week.
During the hour of noon, Wednes-
day. while all the employees of the
First National bank OF East Portland
were absent at lunch, except the teller
Mr.. Holgate, the reverend gentleman
in disguise, entered the bank, held up
bound and gagged the teller, and
would have looted the establishment
had not Mr.. Southworth, teller OF the
Citizens Bank on the opposite corner
OF the street, discovered the attempt
1t seems that Reed, when he accosted
the teller held in bis hand a small
bottle filled with a liquid, which he
declared was enough nitro glycerine
to blow the establishment to hell il
he but dropped it. Holgate started
towards the vault, when Reed leveled
pistol at him and commanded him
to hold up his hands and turn his
back. When this was done, the rever-
end gentleman coolly proceeded &c
bind his arms with cords, blind hi.
eyes with a strip OF cloth, and to force
gag into his mouth. He then fast
ened the door with an iron bar an(
proceeded to help himself to the cash
on q tray, placing it into a bag
brought for the purpose.
But here came an interruption
and one which changed his welllait
plans, SO near successful, into defeat
Looking up at challenge from with

of Southworth, who WAS aiming at him
through the glass panel of the entrance
door. The robber quickly complied
with the order to surrender, and the
door was at once forced open and he
found himself in the clutches OF the
Law. 1t was not till his capture, that
the identity OF the would-be burglar
was disclosed. The whiskers worn by
the clerical scoundrel were the same
that he had masqueraded in at Streat-
er, ILL.,, while acting as Santa Claus at
a children's festival, during the late
holiday season.
Reed left Portland three years ago
for Moline, ILL.,, and was soon placed
in charge of a church at Streater,
near Chicago. He returned to Port
land on account of his wife's health,
but the church refused to employ him
and he went to Oregon City and
preached for a time in the opera
house there. He is the individual
who on departure East left his clothes
on the bank OF the Willamette, doubt
less to create the impression that he
had drowned while bathing, and was
mourned for dead by his family. He
turned up afterwards in Illinois, and
it is said that, like the Marston case,
there was q woman at the bottom of it,

chance of masquerading behind prison
bars for term OF years just now.

is All instance of the careless way in

circumstances, the completion of the

of some obstructionists to postpone it
