FOR REFORM.

The surprise of the session was
when ID. p. Thompson brought down
his axe of reform and cut the wages
per diem of the three employees OF the
board. The clerks are to get So day
and the messenger $1.50 a day. Mr.
Wingate said he had never paid a
white man as low as $3.50 a day, but
as he labored hard to elect one OF the
clerks he did not appreciate Mr'
ThompSon's effort to cut their pay
from $40 day to So. Heretofore the
clerk has put in time before the board
met and at $40 day got in about fifty
days. This year the clerks are to put
in no more days than the members o1
the board themselves, who are limited
to thirty days. The board costs $50
day for thirty days for the members
per diem alone and their mileage
costs nearly as much more. But the
mileage is the least unjust part of the
EXPENSE, except where the members
ride on passes and then charge the
state besides. No one doubts thai
men who have so large control oyel
valuations for purposes OF taxation
can get all the passes they want. l.
the work of the state board were eX
amined from the start 1t would o'
found they have released corporation
property from taxation on large
scale-more than enough to pay fol
all their free rides. The board, mol
the gentlemen comprising it, audit'
its own accounts and is kind OF
little plutocratic senate, half OF then
being holdovers, 'and not really re
sponsible to the people. The sam
work is done IN nearly all other state
by the three or five state officials anC
costs not one-half what it does here
The only valid objection to havinl
the work done by the state official
here is that they have already TO.

Battle Ship Oregon.

1t is learned that the monster war
ship Oregon will soon visit the Sound.
1t appears from the sea trials Of the
Oregon that she rolls something ter
rible" in the least kind Of a sea.
This was provided against in the plan
for the keel, which require that bilge
keel be part of the hull. The placing
of these had to be postponed, however,
they would have made the vessel en-
tirely too large for the Hunters Point
drydock, Puget Sound, or that at
Mare Island, San Francisco bay. 1t
has been decided now that the bilge
keels must be pnt on, so the big ship
will be sent to the dock, to which the
monster plates will be sent up by
freight and put on.

Big Blocks Broken.

Last Thanksgiving day a large
amount of rock from the Pioneer
quarry left this city over the West
side en- route to Gray'S harbor, Wash.
The rock was to be used in the con-
struction of the light house which
the government is erecting at that
place. Now comes the remarka BILE
feature, the rock On the road to Port
land cracked, some of it little, while
quite large amount of it went en-
tirely to pieces. There are various
opinions as to the cause of this, but
the most popular theory Is that the
rock was shipped from the quarry be
fore it was thoroughly dried and the
extreme cold of the time caused the
trouble. This is a misfortune, as a
person unfamiliar with the causes and
conditions that cracked the stone
might condemn it prematurely. EX-
perts have often tested it with heat,
cold and pressure, and in all cases the
Pioneer stone, when brought into
competitor with other stones has come
out uof the contest triumphant. In
San Francisco Pioneer stone is being
used in the construction of the largest
and finest buildings in the city, and
always with satisfactory results. 1t
will probably develop that some un'
favorable condition surrounding the
quarrying and shipment of this lot
and not the stone itself is to blame
for the present case. The correct ex
PLANTATION will be awaited with inter
est.-Corvallis Gazette.

PRETTY GOOD GUESS.
John Johntz Estimated the County's
Wheat Crop Accurately.

The State Agricultural report shows
that Dickinson county this year rails
ed 920, $3.50 bushels Of wheat. On
June II John Johntz, Of Johntz Bros.
Mills, in an interview with the RE-
FLEcToR said, 81 think we will have q
good half crop, say about 10 bushels
to the acre. The county will raise
between 900, 900 and 100000 BUSH
els. This was remarkably accurate
estimate. Last year the yield was
$40, 900 bushels and In 1894 1t was
|, 100, 900 bushels. The board puts
the average price this year at 65
cents.
The county's corn crop was 2,b6l,-
7O6 bushels. In 1895 1t was $685.
140 There is probably an error
somewhere in the figures on corn as
the crop this year is fully twice
more than 1895.
Oats Is 1873, 1858 bushels. In 1895 it
was 872, 344.
The wheat outlook OF the State is
reported as "never better at this time
