The story of#the litigation and
long delay to (which the settlers
were forced to submit was told for

on lands in Alsea on the 2Ist day
of October. 1892 and Immediately
thereafter the O-s&s C. R. r. Co.

from the interior department. In
time the case of the settlers came
to the attention of the department,
and then Hoke Smith, secretary of
the interior. began suit before Judge
Bellinger in Portland. to set aside
the deeds After two years, there
was decision in favor>of the set
tiers, but the case was at once ap-
pealed to the supreme court. Six
months ago the case was again de-
cided in favor of the settlers, and
they were permitted to file again
on their lands, but we're required
to, pay a new fling fee. This they
did, protesting at the injustice of
requirement. County Clerk Moses

THEIR FEES RETURNED.
After Eleven Long Years-Troubles of

County Clerk Moses has in his
possession the sum of eighty dol

The homesteaders paid the fees SIG
each On their homesteads October

the money has been in the pockets
of some land official. Six months
ago, when the homesteaders made
new filings on the same land, they
were required to pay the fees again
and for a time it looked as if they
were to get no refund of the first
fees. There was no record in the
land Office archives of the payment
of the fees as far as could be found,
and it was only by dint Of much eff
fort on the part of Clerk Moses
that return of the money has fin

returned are for John Sapp, Joseph

INCREASED NINR THOUSAND.
Benton's Portion of State Taxes
Must Paw Over Twenty Four
Thousand.

Benton county will have to pay
about $4,000 more state taxes this
year than she paid last. The amount
that it is necessary for her taxpay-
ers to yield up is $24,745. The
amount last year was $I5,352. The
increase is $e, 1913. The state tax
this year is probably the largest ev-
er paid by the county, at least
since old Benton was divided. 1t is
a greater sum than is usually paid
for county expenses The increase
is simply enormous, and will be
sure to make taxpayers squirm
1t is occasioned by the heavy ap-
preparations made by the last leg
islature. which in spite of the sew
eral vetoes of appropriations by
Governor Chamberlain, left large
legacy of bills to be footed. Ofthe
1905 fair appropriation. $3.50. 900
will have to be paid this year, and
that contributes in large measure
to the increased state taxes. The
big appropriations for the Indian
War veterans adds another lump,
and the appropriation for the port
age railroad at The Dalles rounds
out the pile. The effect of all con-
fronts Benton with the duty of
raising state tax that will call out
many a complaint, from taxpayers,
To raise the sum will require levy
of about six mills on a property
valuation of $4,33o,ooo in round
numbers. ~.g
Nor is this the only wayin which
the tax account viii be increased
this year. The tax for county
schools will be mitch Increased.
Last year the sum collected ON that
account was $t2. 500. This year
it will be $i5,5 or an increase Of
$3,o1o. Formerly the school tax
was levy of FIVE mills on the tax
able property of the county A
new law, passed by the last 1egis-
1ature, requires the collection of IS
for every child OF school age in the
county. There are 2,585 such
children, and at Sc per capita, the
sum that the law requires collected
in taxes for them is $3.50, in
stead of the $1I,5oo collected on
the same account last year. This
increase added to the increase in the
in the state tax which is So 33o,
makes a clear Increase on the two
accounts of $I2.4o3, These are
matters that are entirely beyond the
jurisdiction of the county court to
fix. and that body will not deserve
the complaints that will be uttered
as a result of the increases.
In Corvallis. there will be SIM
ilarly large increase in the taxes.
There will be collected as city tax
es for general purposes this year
$3.50, and for street purposes,
S1,44o. or a, total of 5000. The
increase is $1,000. In the Corval-
lis school district, there is also an
increase in the amount of taxes.
but it is only slight, being about
$3.50,
The one place in which there is
hope of a lower levy is for county
purposes. The county court meets
today, and among the duties that
come before it will be that of fixing
levy for the current year, The
levy for county purposes last year
was fifteen mills, much of which
went in Improvement OF roads.

CREFFIELD MARRIED

1t is supposed that Frank Hurt
intercepted the fugitives in their
flight toward Albany. 1t is known
that he followed the White Caps
across the river after the apostles
were taken prisoners, and it is sup
posed also that he was an unseen
witness of the tar and feather act.
At any rate Creffield was back at
the Beach house by midnight, and
about that time Frank Hurt applied
at local drug. store for linseed
oil for useiin removing tar.
A sequel to the incident was the
marriage yesterday of Gre field and
Mis- Maud Hurt. Early in the
morning Corvallis livery carriage
drove up TO the dior Of the Beach
house and stopped. Later it drove
away in the direction of Albany,
wirh Mr.. and Mrs, Frank Hurt
Miss Maud Hurt with F. E 'Cref-
field as occupants: A dispatch from
Albany to the Times about noon
related that the party had reaobod
Albany and had driven tothe court
house. where marriage license was
obtaiued, that with Mr.. and Mrs.
Frank Hurt as witnesses, Maud
Hurt and Crefield had been mar
ried at the court house, Judge
Palmer, officiating. The dispatch
added that the odor of tar was no.
ticeable in the room when the cere-
mony was performed. r
