FARMER
ON GUN
TAX
New Tax Proposed By the
Next Legislature Is Unjust

In a recent issue | saw an article re-
lating 10 the taxation Of all guns in
the state of Oregon the sum OF one dollar
each TO create fund TO pay a salary to
each game warden in the state. at
once saw the injustice OF such law for
the simple reason that all guns are
Rot OF the same value and the old rusty
isTmer's gun that he keeps for oc-
oasional use would be taxed the same as
the club sportsman's Greener, Smith
Parger, Remington and other makes
that cost from $50 to $3.50 and thus these
same sportsmen would clinch another
nail in the coffin of our personal liberty.
And these game wardens are supposed
TO protect game on our farms until the
club sportsman with modern gun,
smokeless shells, trained dogs aud
ierrets can come from the cities and
without any leave from property owners
raid their farms aud hag the rabbits,
partridges aud quails, as did a band Of
them from Portland last November.
Now brother farmers, are you still will
ling TO submit 10 this later outrage Of
taxation aud pay the same tax per gun
on your ancient muEEle leaders that
the sportsman pays on his modern
harmless breech loader? Or will you
join hands and unite through petitions
TO our honorable representatives to
vote against any such act OF legislation.
A word TO the wise is sufficient,

the evening and was after the Chinese
custom, a minister not being a necessary
adjunct The bride and groom we're ar.
rayed in many dollars worth Of grand
eur. The home was gorgeously deco
rated, being hung with gay banners,
Chinese lanterns and big red emblems.
Dollars upon dollars worth Of luxuries
which would not be relished by white
man were piled high on the tables and
served as loaded banquet to the many
guests.
Wah Chung, when asked the maiden
name Of his bride said; 81 don't know
She is Mrs. Wah Chung now"
The Chinese groom recently begun

1t is pleasant to welcome another
of the little books in this series Of use
full stories and upon such an attractive
subject. The title of this little book in
English is The Story Of Architecture. "
1t had to be changed here on account
of the similarity of title with another
of Appleton's publications.
In addition to the material in the
English book it contains an article on
Architecture in America with 81 illus
trations.
The book sketches the subject from
the building Of the great pyramid down
to modern times studying the various
columns, the Gothic, Ionic and Corin-
THAN, and the ROmanesQue, Saxon and
Renaissance architecture
In America he devotes some atten-
ton to Trinity Church, Boston; the
capitol at Washington; LOngfellow's
home, Cambridge. and the American
sky -scraper-' This book has been
kept within the limits prescribed for
it and its companions in the library of

In no branch of school study has
greater progress been made in recent
years than in geography, both in meth
DDS of teaching and in it's textbooks.
This notable progress in photographic
knowledge and teaching is very strik-
ingly illustrated in this new textbook
on physical geography by Professor
Dryer. One Of the chief merits of the
book is that it is simpler than any 9TH
er complete and accurate treatise on
the subject now before the public.
Although especially adapted for the
high school course, the treatment is
easily within the comprehension of pu-
pills in the upper grades of the gram
mar school and may be used to great
advantage in connection with the ad-
vanced school geography Throughout
the book are many realistic exercises
which appeal to the actual or possible
experience of the student. They are
designed not for the purpose of discov-
cry, but of realization, and progressive
teachers will appreciate their teaching
force and application in both field and
laboratory work.

"Gluck Auf" is the name of a be
ginner's German reader just issued
from the Athenaeum Press of CHM &
Co (Boston). In this work complicated
constructions and difficult idioms have
been avoided throughout, the mastery
Of vocabulary being considered a task
Of sufficient difficulty fer a beginner.
An important place is given TO the
study Of cognates, by means of which
the student acquires a vocabulary with
comparative ease.
The central idea of this book is to
introduce even the beginner to facts,
ideas, and sentiments which are in
close relation to German life. In their
choice of material, whether original or
retold from old German myths and
sagas, the authors have been guided
by their desire to make the reading
matter of the first years German a
stepping stone toward the knowledge
and appreciation Of what is choice and
valuable IN German literature Low
