Rhododendron Excursion.

The beautiful weather we are
now having is productive of spring
fever, and our people, watching the
swelling buds, many Of which have
burst into blossoms and leaves, are
asking when the most beautiful of
Oregon's wild flowers, the rhodo-
dendron, will bloom again. To get
this information we were obliged to
call at the Corvallis & Eastern rail
road Office. Rhododendrons attain
perfection at Newport and Nye
Creek between the 10th aud Goth OF
May, depending on the weather.
Usually the c. & Z. run a Sunday
excursion which inaugurates the
. seaside season at the coast. Mr..
Stone, manager Of the c. & F.. in
forms MS that one day excursions to
the Bay will be generally discontin-
ued this year, but that on Saturday,
May nth, or a week later, May
18th, owing to the advancement OF
the flowers, the company will make
a low rate, good for Saturday, Sun
day and Monday. This will give
passengers all of Sunday on the
beach or gathering all they can
carry of natures most. beautiful
flowers, which nowhere flourish as
at Yaquina bay.

News Special)-Th railroads of the
state yesterday afternoon secured from
Judge n. Walter Dixon of the District
Court an injunction to prevent til"
State Board of Assessors from proceed
ing further with the assessment of
railroad property under the provisions
of the revenue bill.
Two weeks ago application was made
by the railroads to Judge Dixon for IL
restraining order against the State
Board of Assessors, but the application
was denied. The petitioners at that
time set forth merely tile illegalily of
the passage which had been alleged in
the mandamus proceedings against the
State Board of Equalization. Al that
time Judge Dixon stated his view to be
that the best interests of the state
would be subserved by both the State
Board of Assessors and the State
Board of Equalization proceeding with

assessments. In the petition filed yes
terday upon which the iniunctive writ
was issued the cOnstitutionality OF the
state Board of Assessors is asSailed.
1t is contended in the petition that the
Legislature had no right to remove
from the county assessor and the State
Board of Equalization in particular any
authority they have heretofore eXer-
cised. Further it is contended that the
creation of the board of thirteen assess
ors is revolutionary in mannerand is be-
sides a delegation of powers which the
Legislature has no authority to make.

Dixon is directed to the thirteen men,

A comparative statement concera,as
the importation Of pork. bacon. and
lard into the Philippines during the
calendar year 1900. as compared with
the calendar year 1899. has been pre-
pared in the division Of insular affairs
Of the war department. The total i'm
portation of these commodities for
1900 was valued at $233.623, as against
$144,66s for 1899. showing an increase
Of 81 per cent.

IN the smaller places in England
horses have to be borrowed for the
fire engines Often thirty to fifty min
utes are wasted in getting horses,
which, when an alarm of fire was
given, were at work at their daily
duty. A considerable amount of time
is also lost In finding the proper har-
ness for them. The horsing Of steam
fire engines in country districts is
very difficult problem. There is hardly
q town of any size in the Uniteo States
which does not have one or more fire
engines, and they can be got under
way with delay Of from thirty sec
onds to a minute and half, while in
the larger cities even thirty seconds
would be considered slow work.

The Oriental maxim that nobod

The Oriental maxim that nobody
should run II he can get along by walk
ing or stand If sitting will answer, or
sit If it is possible to lie down, finds
many adherents in days of extreme
heat. Telephone Offices are unusually
busy because so many people resort to
them to save making a trip, and street.
cars are filled with those who would
otherwise walk. In short, all easy ways
OF doing things are at premium,
with the result that those persons who
are employed in the occupations that
save physical effort on the part of the
public are worked harder than ever.
