So keen is the demand for Western
photographs and western stories
among the various publications of the
east, that many of them appropriate
copyrighted pictures and steal all
kinds of copyrighted articles and
sketches from the west.
Major Leee Moorhouse. whose In
dian photographs have a world wide
notoriety, is constantly harrassed by
eastern publications which use, with
out authority or credit, his most
valuable copyrighted photographs and
he will perhaps be forced to make
an example of some of the cheaper
publications If such journalistic pi-
racy does not stop soon.
The last magazine to use the photo
graph of his Umatilla twins, without
credit or authority, was Human
Life, monthly publication of Bos-
ton, which devoted considerable
space to the production of the photo
graph of the twins, with a descriptive
sketch prepared by the artist, to ac-
company the picture.
None of the more reputable publi-
cations use the photographs without
permission but many of the cheaper
sensational publications make con-
stant practice of appropriating his
most valued copyright pictures.
Thousands of the photographs have
been carried east during the past
year by tourists, and as some of his
latest and best have not been publish
ed in the east, the temptation to use
them is very strong and many of the
irresponsible publications take undue
liberties with the noted Umatilla ar
lists work.
Since the photographs are sent free
/ to so many magazines and newspa
pers. Major Moorhouse feels that it Il
an injustice for publications to us'
( them without permission, where per
mission could often be secured by thu
asking. All the better class of maga
zines order and pay well for all tn
photographs they use and are glad t.
get them, so great is the interest II
western subjects.

Property Values Increased.

The field work of making up the
assessment roll Of Josephine county
has been completed for 1905. While
no totals have been made. Assessor
Fallin is confident the roll will foot
up more than $4,OOO,OOO. For 1904
the roll was $2,OS4,O95. Farm lands
were rated according to their value
and timber land entered as such is
assessed at 81 an acre. Railroad land
is assessed double what it was last
year--$S and $5 an acre. The county
intended to have had all timber land,
railroad and private, crulsed this sum-
mer and given valuations according
to its worth

Portland, Aug. 22,-Mayor Lane
into the practice of warrant dis
counting so prevalent among munich
pal employees, and has found that in
five of the largest departments of
the city, warrants amounting to sl2,-
543 passed through the hands of
brokers in July. The amounts are di- |
vided as follows: Water department, |
$1672; police. $316S; fire, $5S77; en-
gineeering 1857; street cleaning,
1872.
The magnitude of the practice has
proved surprise to the mayor, and
more than ever he is determined to
discourage employees from giving
away from 8 to 10 per cent of their
salary each month to brokers for no
other reason than to get the money
before they earn 1t. In the fire de-
partment nearly one-half of the en-
ployes discounted salary warrants In
July, while the police, street cleaning
and water departments, nearly one
third resorted to the practice.
1t has been learned that a large
number of employees on the books Of
brokers have sold their salaries for
several months in advance, and have
signed blank transfers for their war
rants and placed them in the hands
of the money lenders who may pre-
sent them from month to month, draw
the salary, take out the payment
agreed on, and return the rest to the
employe after discounting for inter-
| est on the sum borrowed at per
cent a month and per cent broker
age.
At the next meeting of the city ex-
ecutive board a list of the salary
discounting employees will be handed
to the committee at the heads of the
several departments who will notify
the men that they must cease selling
their wages before they earn them,
and that they must appear in person
at the city auditors office and receipt
for their warrants. The mayor and
his executive board are proceeding
on the ground that the employees have
no legal right to dispose of their sal
aries before they earn them.
