Easily abbey, the ruins of which lie
close TO the river Swale, a short dis
tuuce from Richmond. in Yorkshire,
England, is the home Of a curious
legend says Photography. One Of the
main walls Of the building is cracked
and topping, but has not yet fallen to
the ground. Nor do the natives expect
it TO do SO, at least not until it receives
the impulse which it is said TO await.
For tradition relates that the wall,
when it does fall, will bury in its ruins

IS well known the chance Of a honey

What great fire little matter kin
dleth, and what little fire great mat
ter kindIeth! To begin with, we quote
the above. just to explain, if the Editor
will permit, the little piece over the
name OF Tom earns. First, We admit
the facts, though we cannot quite un-
derstand why Mr.. Tom should not own
partly in the telephone. as he has paid
more money for it than anybody, but
that's not my business, for justice is
one thing and law is another thing.
Second, the writer may not have in
tended to tread on any ones toes, but
Just wrote the items as people talked.
When Otto Dieckhoff was on the line
1t was Otto and Doc and when Otto
went off it was called Trenholm and
ION. Now, il we had to be so explicit,
we would say Charlie CaTns' house did
not burn down. but the house owned by
Dan Pickett. which Charlie earns oc-
cupied, but set it has appeared in dif-
ferent papers that Charlie earns house
burned dOwn-just on the same prin.
ciple of the telephone, As no one was
on the line but Doc and Trenholm. We
make no complaint il Mr.. Carns saw
fit to correct the mistake, for it is the
duty of every citizen to put down lying,
stealing, incendiarism, drinking and
everything that makes a wrong. We
will say the other line is on the wav,
and we hope Oscar Tom can get his
money back, so he can come on the
other. We could explain this a little
more, but we feel the public doesn't
want to hear it, and the editor would
rather write about old Binger or Mitch
ell. Now, Mr. Editor, if you will print
this, we promise not to write any more
until these seven citizens have a tele-
phone.
Sam Woods preached an eloquent
discohrse st the Trenholm schoolhouse
Sunday. Miss Cosset of Salem is
teaching the school at that place. We
wish her success.
Mrs. Charlie earns is expected home
soon.

Though he has not given a formal
opinion upon the subject, Attorney
General Crawford says he believes the
present exemption law places limit of
$500 upon the total value of property
to be exempt from taxation. He be-
lleves the last clause of the exemption
section can be construed to establish
such limit, and that being true, the
punctuation OF the earlier part of the
section should be disregarded. Unless
further investigation of the subject
leads TO a different conclusion, he will
advise and County Assessors who in
quile that they should allow no house
holder more than $500 exemption.

Stockmen Show Interest.

Interest in the livestock show to be
held in connection with the Lewis and
Clark Exposition, which will be held
in Portland from June l to October Is
next, is increasing daily, and the in
ducement of over $4,000 in prizes,
which is offered stockraiscrs. is certain
to attract all the leading stockmen of
the country to the Exposition.
The managers of the Western
Worlds Fair have decided to hold the
horse show from August % to Septem-
Der s, and the shows OF cattle, swine,
sheep and goats from September 10 to
September 30. The other dates will be
announced later.
The leading stockraisers' associations
of the country have shown their inter
est in the Exposition's enterprise by
contributing generously to the fund set
aside for prizes, and their hearty CO.
operation is assured. The National
Livestock Association has appropriated

sas City, $2,5O0; the Percherou Horse
Registry Association, $1,000 for prem
iums on Percheron horses the Ameri-
can Shorthorn Breeders Association,
$1,000 for premiums on Shorthorns,
and the American Hereford Breeders
Association, $1,000 for premiums on
Hereford cattle. This, with the S40,-
600 appropriated from the Exposition
funds for the purpose, brings the grand
total Of prize money up to $5l ,00O
The premiums offered by the Lewis
and Clark Fair management are divided
as follows: Horses, 10000; Cattle,
| $l6,500; Sheep and Goats, Sc 500; Swine,
$500; Poultry and Pets, 81 800.
The American Augora Goat Associa.
ton, whose annual shows at Kansas
City have attracted a great deal OF at
tention, both among raisers of goats
and among people generally who have
watched the progress of the compare
lively new industry of goat-raising, will
hold its annual show this year for the
first time west of Kansas City. The
show at the Lewis and Clark Expos-
tion will be the greatest goat show ever
held.
While the interest in the stock show
has been general throughout the Uni
ted States, and generous participation
by all the large stockraisers of the
union is assured, the show will espe-
cially interest eastern visitors to the
Fair, on account of the fact that at the
| Exposition the stockraisers of the Ore
gon country will be more generally rep
resented than ever before. The value
of the livestock in 1904 in the state of
Oregon was nearly s34, 100000. There
were almost 125,0O0 dairy COWS in the
state, almost 3,000,000 sheep and lambs
and almost 100000 swine.
