COUNTY ASSESSMENT.

There are a number OF people In AS

that an increased assessment OF all
the property In Clatsop county would
be beneficial in more ways than one.
There are a number OF street Inn

property win not pay for the improve

President Roosevelt In recent
speech in Denver said:
In times past, republic after re-
public has existed in this world ana
has gone down to destruction, some
times because the republic was turned
into a government Of the poor VINO
plundered the rich; some times De-
caues II was turned into a government
OF the rich who exploited the poor. II
makes no difference whatever to the
fate of the republic which form its taii
took. The fall was just as certain IN
one case as in another. 1t was just
as certain to follow the election OF a
class which plundered another class
whether the class thus given mastery
was the class OF poor who plundered
me rich. or the class Of rich which ex'
nloited the poor. The destruction was
as inevitable in one instance as IN
another"

TAX LEVY.

1t is peculiar mathematical
problem which seems to work adj
verse to any mathematics that we
have ever studied, in that it re-
quires Il larger levy as the property
of the city advances in market
value. a levy of 1j mills is now
made for the year 1905. The cX-
pcnses of the city government have SO
enormously increased within the
past year. it becomes necessary to
increase the levy. Yet the market
value has increased pace. Is
it necessary that the expenses be so
great in excess of former years?
Wherein consists the expense, is it
road building or railroad building?

Farm Work has Begun.

Springtimc has come again. The
birds are singing, the bees are hum
ming and the flowers are blooming
and everything is putting forth its

The farmers have had a bcauti-
ful time for preparing their land
for another crop and everyone is
putting in good time.
We see a good deal of corn is
being planted already and a good
deal of land being fixed and good
deal more to be fixed.
We think the farmers are taking
right move in the right direction
to cut tho acreage of cotton. We
should use the word plant more
corn instead of saying cut the
acreage of cotton.
Show me man who has corn i'm

that the present price of cotton does
not hurt, and he is not complain
ing so much about the price. We
know of several farmers in this
section who have corn plenty i'm
their cribs, and one who has some
two years old, and he has his pres
cnt crop of cotton on hand and can
hold it as long as he wants to.
We have farmers association in
Joncsville township and many have
signed the pledge to reduce the
acreage. We do think this is a
great move and every farmer should
attend the meetings and make it
what it should be. We hear of
criticisers, which is generally the
case in most anything, but this
should not be. We see some always

Death of a Good Woman.

Wednesday night, April 5, at II
O'Clock, Mrs. William Jefferics,
wife of Capt. VIM. Jefferies, died
at her old home in Cherokee county.
She had been in feeble, failing
health for the past several years,
yet her death was sudden and un-
expected. The intermcnt was at
Gatfney in Oakland cemetery. Mrs.
Jefferies was, before her marriage,
Miss Ramoth l.. Hamcs, daughter
of the late Lemeul Hames and a
sister of the late lamented Thadeus
l.. Hames. She leaves surviving
her, husband and five children,
Miss Mary Jeffcrics, DR.. Charles
Jefferies and Mrs. Baxter Wood
and Mrs. j. d. Goudlock of Gaff-
ney, Mrs. Charles Allen of Green
vile, S. G..
From early girlhood Mrs. JEFF
ferries was a consistent and devout
member of the Methodist church,
and by her christian conduct, pre-
cept and example she was a shin
ing light for good not only in her
own home but the entire community
in which she lived. She will be
missed and mourned by all who
knew and lived within the circle
and atmosphere of her christian
spirit and benign influence. The
sympathies of the entire community
are extended to the bereaved. She
is at rest in the arms of her Savior
whom she so faithfully served, the
reward of her earthly devotion to
his service.
