tober the assessment rolls for the pres
ent year and the levies will be taken under
consideration. At that time petitions
will be presented asking the court to

proyement OF the roads OF the county
necessary. The matter Is one OF great
importance 10 the farmers OF the county.

A deputy United States marshal. sent
from Seattle missed the boat In Portland
and came on to this city and headed her
on. The owners OF the steamer. who are
New York parties, on being informed OF
the trouble llquIdated the bill. and the
boat was released yesterday evening. The
South Portland carries no passengers and
is chartered by the o. r. & ". Company
to transport wheat to San Francisco. She
will probably leave out today.
