ments have been noticed. This season
VIII be no exception to the rule. Nor
rls & Rowes shows are now twice the
sixe OF last season and many valu-
able additions have been made. The
growth and improvement OF the big
moral show has been nothing short Of
phenomenal. and the success OF the en-
terprlse can be traced to the fact
that the show is clean, moral, whole
some, instructive and very amusing.
1t is, in fact. an entertainment that the

is an entertainment that every boy and

ness and patience win accomplish, even

waterproof tents which will be located

A captain yesterday was hunting
for tow for his ship from Astoria
TO Portland. He said TO a half dozen
men engaged in the shipping business,
What Is the matter with you Astoria
fellows. anyhow This is the second
time I've been in here in two years
and both times ! have had to pay out
from $500 10 $500 TO get to Portland to
get my cargo. when I could have load
ed my ship here much easier. much
quicker and saved that expense. Why
do you fellows want to haul a ship
clear up TO Portland and back again to
load her? Haul her load down here.
That would only be one haul and a
much cheaper one than to take the
ship a hundred miles up the river and
bring II back again. You fellows are
regular barnaeles," and the irate cap
tain went away to telegraph for tow
boat.

The run of salmon continues TO In
crease and all the fishermen on the
river are busy. But few boats are In
the harbor and the idle ones win be
in use when made NJ for service. It
ls rumored that prices during the past
week have nuctuated from 10 ~
cents This Ii hardly u correct state
ment. For several extraordinary fine
lots of fsh as high as ~ cents has
been paid but the price OF cents Is
the market price for the all round
catch. The salmon are not averaging
over 25 TO 80 pounds but are fine, irm
fish that pack unusually well and
hence. what they lack in quantity they
more than make up for In quality.

The Now Court House.

The work on the walls Of the new
court house Is now nearing completion
Two weeks more are expected to finish
them up entirely. The timbers are be-
ing erected for the roof and II is eX-
pected that the building will be en-
closed in about month.
Some of the material has been a lit
tie slow in arriving which has held the
work back somewhat. but from present
appearances 1t will not be a difficult
thing to have it all completed by the
time allowed in the contract, which is
the first of June.
Enough can be seen Of the building
now to show that it is going to be a
good, we'll porportioned building that
will grace that part Of the CITY, In
fact the three fine buildings, the jail
the new court house and the new opert
house will make the junction Of Main
and Avenue B one Of the best corners
in the city.

No IurlsdlotIon.

The case which was commenced
against the telegraph and telephone
companies by the city for not paying
their license taxes which were levied
by the city council under an ordinance
passed not long since was dismissed
from Esquire Morris court last Thurs
day, The suit was commenced as a
civil suit to collect the license fee.
The contention was made that suit
by the city would have to be made
through the city courts to enforce the
penalties Of the licence. The compan-
les we're amply represented by counsel
The Pacific and United States express
companies we're represented by John
O'Keefe of Leavenworth. Vandeyeel
& Martin appeared for the telephone
company, the Postal telegraph and the
W ellis Fargo express Prigg Il Will
liams represented the Western Union
There were some lively tits and the
case was dismissed, the court holding
that it had no jurisdiction. lfhe came
to this decision on the weight of the
law as it is said that many justices dc
by the relative number Of attorneys on
a side, he should have been able to'de
eide 1t very quickly.
However nothing seems to have beer
gained by either side in the controversy
as the case is now just where 1t wal
before, and the case can be commenced
again in the city courts as 1t probabl!
will be.

Bigger Va. Reno County

A suit has been llled ana IL now
pending In the supreme court Of Kan
sas which 10 OF considerable interest 10
the people OF this county. First be-
cause 1t effects part Of the county
business In material way and second
because 10 is touching upon and test
ing the constltutionality Of u law in
which they have u common interest.
The facts in the case are About as
follows: Three years ago thecommis-
sloners OF this county made an order
under a statute passed by the legisla-
ture OF 1901 that the county treaSur er
should buy in all the property offered
at Tax sale for the county. Inc same
statute provides that the county can
not acquire title and must therefore
sell or assign the certificates ~ the end
Of the three years. SO the only good
the county gets out OF the purchase is
IN drawing the interest for tine three
years instead Of permitting some broker
to do it, Wen IL happened That this
year the county had quite 4 large guam
tty OF unredeemed land and town
property on hand from the sale Of 1897.
1t Is now time for 1t to 20 10 deed and
the county now offers IL forsale. Gas.
ner and Bunker offered " take the
whole lot, including all tne county 3
holding from that years sale, at the
iull amount OF original taxes and costs
and interests up 10 date, TINS the
commissioners thought was good Of
tfer and agreed TO accept IL, Tue &C
ceptance Of this offer would clean up
the whole lot and would not leave the
county as usual with a lot OF LOIS and
small tracts lying III on the extreme
outskirts OF the Towns in the county to
carry for years and years without get
ting anything OUT of them, There al
ways have been, at least for many
years u large number OF such tracts
! that the e3nnty has had 70 carry with
little hope Of getting anything out Of
them, But about the time Or shortly
after the transaction with Uisner and
Bunker, l.. A. Bigger came in anC
wanted 10 select some Of tho choicest
OF the property H. was refused aud
then made u tender OF the money for
The tracts he wished and had an in.
junction issued to restrain the county
treasurer from assigning the lands tC
anyone else. Then he commenced
proceedings In the supreme court for
mandamus to compel the county trees
urer to issue the assignments 10 him
that he wanted, The suit is set to be
heard on the fourth of next month.
In this case 1t seems from what we learn
that Mr. Bigger seeks to have the
statute Of 1891 which authorizes the
county commissioners to have all the
lands purchased by the counties at any
tax sale, declared unconstitutional.
Mr. Bigger is very largely interested
in tax title investments nearly all over
the State, and during the last few
years 80 many of the counties have
availed themselves of the above statute
that there are not very many places
where tax titles can be secured. II
The above statute passed by the old
