Died of Consumption.

This morning about o'clock, Joseph
Medcalf, who for the past five wears has
suffered untold misery from that awful
disease, consumption, passed away at
his home on Second street, between
Court and Union. Almost three years
ago he came to this city from Vancouver
in hopes that he might be benefited by
the change, and has made his home
with his mother, Mrs. NJ. A. Ewing.
Very little help wac derived, and
while at times he was able to be aronnd,
good part of the time he was confined
to his bed, his last severe spell being of
three weeks duration.
Mr.. Medcalf, who was about "a years
of age, was born in Missouri an gradu-
ated from the state university at Colum-
bia, being admitted to the bar in that
city. Coming to the Pacific coast, he
practiced law in Vancouver in partner
ship with his brother. Later he was
partner of the son of Judge Deadly in
Portland. He is said to have been very
brilliant man in former yeare, and
would have made his mark in lite had
not this wrecker OF all ambitions over--
taken him.
! His brother who resides at Vancouver
will arrive this evening, when arrange
ments will re made for the funeral
which will take place tomorrow at 10

Sixteen applicants, mostly young la

not highly entertained, at the county
school superintendent Office today.
They are engaged in taking the exami-
nation for teachers certifcates-a not
overly -enviable occupation. There are
also four applicants for state certificates.
At present the arrival of trains in the
city is "mighty oncertain." No. 8, west
bound, which should have arrived at
:O5, reached here at 2:3O, while No. is
six hours late. Nothing definite as to
the cause of the delay has been ascer-
tanned, one report saying it was due to
slide, while another says there ia a
wreck up the road. The reports, how
ever, ARE about as uncertain as the trains.

Quoting the meetings at the Methodist

FOR ASSESSMENT PURPOSES.
WascO County Divided Into Seven Dis
tricts-Deputies Appointed.

There is always more or less dissatis-
faction in regard to assessments levied
throughout the county. No fault can be
attributed to the assessor, as it is an
utter impossibility for him to determine
accurately in regard to the different dis
tricts without further aid. Therefore,
for some time past the county court has
been considering the matter, and it has
been ordered that Wasco county be and
is divided into seven districts to be
known as assessment districts, for the
purpose of assessing the property in
said county. Seven deputies assessors
have been appointed for the year 1899,
who will be under the direct supervision
of the county assessor, and receive So
for each days work. These deputies
will thus be enabled to see each tax
payer separately, and his assessment be
made personally, thus preventing his
making omplaint as to any mistake
which may occur. The following dep
uties have 80 far been appointed:
For district No. 1, E. Gesling; No, 2,
no appointment; No. 8, no appointment; ;

TIE ROAD MOVEMENT.
Early In the Century Highway I'm
provement Was Agitated Quite
Generally.

The good roads movement in this
country is not OF recent origin, as many
who are following and agitating it may
think. In the earlier part of the cen
fury an agitation for good roads was
kept up for nearly so years, and had
among it's leaders such men as Henry
Clay and John Calhoun. This move
ment resulted in the government TAX
ing sufficient interest in it to provide
for national turnpike through the
leading eastern cities to those in the
west. About the time the movement
was well under way, the railroads, as
means of transportation, became sc
prominent as to cause the road work tc
stop.
Railroad building has practically
reached it's limit in this country now
though there will be extensions of the
system gradually, but the good roads
movement which they stopped in the
earlier days is now receiving fresh i'm
petus from the lessons that good stee
highways have taught the people, anG
because of the necessity of good high
ways Us feeders to the immense railroad
systems of the country.
Instead of having one kind of COCO
road to the detriment of the other, it i!
very probable that the work of tn,
League of American Wheelmen, in con
junction with the Farmers Nationa
congress and other agricultural organi
cations, will result in the work of roat
building being taken up where it wa
left off some years ago and completed
as far as the necessities of the countr,
demand. To do this will require mil
lions of dollars and much patient effort
but the good roads agitators are conf
dent they can convince the legislator
and the people that improved highway
are an economic necessity.
