Finland is larger than England, Ire
land, Scotland and the Netherlands
combined. 1t has It's own constitution,
which was framed in 17T2. This in
strument was modified and changed
when, In 1909, the grand duchy was
coded to the emperor of Russia, but it
still provides for a national parliament,
In which the four estates-the mobiles,
the clergy, the burghers and the peas
ants-are represented, and names as
the head of the state the Grand Duke
of Finland, who is the car.

saueaking Sands.

Singing sands are found in many
parts of the United States, but squeak
ing sands are not so common. The sing
ing sand emits musical sound only
when dry and loses this property on
being dampened. The squeaking sand,
on the other hand, is silent when dry
and squeaks hest and loudest when
moistened. The sound 1t gives forth Is
by no means loud, but somewhat re-
sembles the squeaking of an armchair.
1t sounds when rubbed between the
fingers or when placed In a small bag
and violently struck, but the cause of
the sound is a mystery.

LAST Thursday the Milwaukee Free
Press entered upon the third year OF
It's existence, and today it is sought
after and talked about as much as any
paper published in Wisconsin, showing
that it is sailing in clear waters and has
able men at the helm. The Free Press
is a strong factor in the advancement
(socially, politically and otherwise OF
our state, and its daily news service
cannot be excelled.

The Thirsty Elm.

1t has been computed that If the

Personal Magnetism.

Two men address an assembly on the
same topic and in nearly the same
words. One is listened to with indif-
ference, If at all; the other stirs to
every fiber our being and our souls
thrill responsive to his lightest touch.
1t is not what we hear, nor Is 1t grace
full pose or elegant diction; it is moth
ing comprehensive or tangible, but an
Invisible, mysterious force which we
acknowledge and yield to even against
our convictions and reason. This
strange attribute is not hereditary, nor
can 1t be acquired.

ANNOUNCEMENT.
THE coMMoNER For 1903.

On December II, 1900, it was
announced through the Associ-
ated Press that Mr.. Bryan was
about to begin the publication of
a weekly newspaper to be known
as The Commoner. Subscript-
ions began coming in Immediate
ly, and soon taxed the resources
at hand to properly care for
them. On January %, 1901, the
first number of the The Com
moner made its appearance.
The paper then consisted of eight
pages, but before the end of the
first year it was increased in
size to twelve pages, and during
the second year to sixteen pages.
The circulation of The Common
er has made a steady growth,
each week showing an increase
over the preceding week until
the paper, as it nears the end of
its second year, has a circula-
ton of 100000.
The year 1903 will be full of
interest to those who are study
ilg governmental problems.
During the next twelve months
the lines will be formed upon
which the next national cam
paign will be fought. During
this period it will be decided
whether the gold-corporation
element known as "the reorgan-
izers" will gain control of the
democratic party or whether the
party will remain true to demo-
cratic principles as they are sci
froth in the Kansas City plat
form.
tits the purpose of The Com.
moner to carry on a campaign o.
education and organization to the
end that democratic principles
may Triumph; and thinking mer
and women, of whatever politi-
cal faith, who desire TO study
both sides of pending questions
will find in its columns much val.
liable information.

THE LEVY MADE.
For City Purposes-A Considerable In
crease in Revenue.

The question of what the reven-
ue from city taxes is to be the COM
ing year was settled at meeting
of the city council Monday night.
In round numbers the revenue for
general purposes from this source
will be $3.50; and for street pur-
poses $3.50 The estimate is bas-
ed on the action OF the council in
making a levy of FIVE mills for gen
eral and two mills for street pur-
poses. The total taxable property
is. in round numbers. $77o, 900,
which at the above rate will yield
the sums mentioned.
The revenue from this source
will be considerably increased over
that of last year. when the total
valuation of city property was much
lower, the figure being about $500
900 in round numbers. The sum
realized for general purposes last
year on this account was about
$2.45o, and for street purposes,
$3.50. The increase in the revenue
for general purposes is about 81
400, and for street purposes $500.
Against the revenue to be derived
from the street fund there are now
outstanding warrants aggregating
$728.

TO RAID DOGS.
Tax on Them Must be Paid-A new
Ordinance Thereon is a Stem Winder.

Chief Lane will shortly begin the
annual raid on Corvallis dogs. The
signs are that every dog-owner in
town will have to pay tax or live
to see his beloved canine climb the
golden stair. A new iron-c1ad-steel
ribbed and turreted ordinance has
been passed that deals out fatal
death to all CANNES on which no
taxes are paid. 1t imposes a tax
on dog for living, fines the owner
that refuses to pay the tax, fines
any man that interferes with the
chief in the discharge of his duty,
and otherwise dispenses big trouble
to any and all things or men that
conspire to defeat the ends of JUS
tice as pertaining to the public tax
on dogs. The tax falls due on the
first Monday in January, and on
that day the new stem winder with
Chief Lane at the helm will go into
operation, to the unquestioned ter
ror of all dogs and their owners.
The ordinance provides that ev-
cry person who owns or harbors a
dog in Corvallis shall. on or before
the FIRST Monday in January pay a
tax of one dollar on male and two
dollars on female dogs The pay
ment Of the tax entities the payer
to a metal tag which must be kept
displayed on the collar of the dog.
1t is made the duty of the chief of
police to ''seize. kill and properly
bury" all dogs on which the tax is
not paid, provided that such dog
be kept in the city pound 48 hours
before said death by violence. Any
owner who refuses to pay the fine
or keep a collar with metal tag on
his dog, shall be fined not less than
five dollars nor more than S25. Any
person who hinders or mo1ests any
officer discharging his duty under
the ordinance shall be fined not less
than $40 nor more than $50.
