TAXPAYERS PROTEST
AGAINST FTvE-MILL LEVY.
Petition the County Court not TO Make
the Proposed Assessment for Road
Building Purposes.

The following Is a petition which was
circulated yesterday and viii be present.
cd to the county court on Tuesday
against the levy OF the proposed 5-mill
road tax.
The petition is In the possession OF
Robert Carruthers. who will be glad to
exhibit It TO as many additional tax
payers as may desire TO sign Il before 1t
is presented to the county court.
1t was in circulation but few hours
yesterday and many citizens who have
expressed desire TO place their names
on It hOv, not yet an opportunity TO do
so, 1t is expected that the petition will
be numerously signed before the county
,ourt meets Tuesday morning.
I'VE. the undersigned citizens OF Cla,-
sop county respectfully represent that
the taxes OF this county are heavy. Ex-
penses are heavy, which cannot be avoid
ed and will require large sums Of taxes
~ NANfAt NAAA wiz NNNNssAAAAN ANA ANNAN3s
THAT the taxpayers for several years
have borrowed money and mortgaged
their property in order TO meet the taxes;
that many OF those mortgages and debts
are still unpaid, Many were not able to
borrow money, and large quantities OF
the property OF the county has been con-
nscated and bought In by the county and
now held by IT,
THAT there is no demand for real
estate. and in the opinion OF the under
signed. II Is not wise at the present
time TO increase the levy to make II more
than can be possibly avoided.
That. owing to lne above. and to the
fact that many OF the roads in Clatsop
county are not laid out in the proper
places or in the proper manner. and also
TO defects In the road laws, the under
signed think 1t not in the interest OF
economy, or otherwise iudicious. to in
crease the levy for roads, and, therefore,
protest against any increase OF levy for
that purpose.
"They also ask that the levy be made
as small as practicable am the expenses
cut down during the next year so as to
come within the estimate and levy"

Sims Reeves had been announced to
sing at a small public dinner at which
Dickens presided, and, as happened not
infrequently, Mr.. Sims Reeves had
something the matter with his throat,
and was unable to attend. Dickens
announced this and the announcement
was received with a general laugh OF
incredulity. This made Dickens very
angry and he rose manfully to the de-

Ancient Drinks.

The Bible credits Noah with the in
vention of wine. but no other record
has been found of the first wine maker.
The oldest records known to man,
those of Egypt and Assyria, show that
they knew how to make both wine and
beer and how to drink both of them.
We have Egyptian pictures found on
the tombs and monuments showing the
whole process of wine making. The
grape Juice was first fermented in open
earthen pans and then poured into
earthen Jars, which were closed with a
lid covered with pitch. clay or mortar,
and sealed. The Egyptians had sew
eral kinds OF wine as early as 5000
years ago.
Wine was the drink of the wealthy,
but the poor Egyptians enjoyed beer
made from barley Chops being un-
known. This old beer was called
bega. Then they also had palm wine,
and another wine called baga made

Who Painted Itf

Inquiries have been received by the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad concerning
the man who painted station sign at
Harper's Ferry. The Western Society
of Engineers has the sign now ON ex-
hibition in its rooms in the Monsdnock
building at Chicago.
The engineers are using every effort to
ascertain who mixed the paint and APP
piled it to the sign. which was placed in
position at the Harper's Ferry station
about thirty years ago. The summers'
heat and winter storms have in no way
dimmed the lustre of the paint used to
make the words. "Harper's Ferry" The
words stand out as boldly as the day they
were formed by the artists brush. The
wood around the letters has been worn
about one sixteenth of an inch by sand
beaten against it by fierce winds, but the
letters have withstood the elements.
1t is claimed that no paint manufactur-
ed nowadays is equal in durability to that
which was applied to the old sign, and if
the person who mixed it is living and
will take advantage Of the eecret he pos
sesses as to its composition, it is said he
can, by engaging in the psint mauufac-
turing business. soon accumulate wealth.

And put me into the sea,
For it's no good weeping

And The long watch kccping

But think of me sometimes and say,

And strove the best he knew to please
His captain in the fight
But it's no good weeping
When shipmate's sleeping
And the long watch keeping
Through the long, long night.
And let my epitaph be these words:
''Cleared from this port alone,
A craft that was stanch and sound and true.

And it's no good weeping
When shipmate's sleeping
And the long watch keeping
All alone, all alone.
And mark this we'll, my shipmntes dear,
Alone the long night through,
Up there in the darkness behind the stars,
I'll look out sharp for you.
