City Valuation-County Clerk Clin-
ton yesterday filed in the Office of tht
city auditor the valuation of all city
property as the same appears upon
this years assessment roll, The to-
tai valuation is s2,O21, ,S64,O0, an in
crease over last years of about $780,
600. At the first meeting of the
common council in December. the city
tax levy will be made, which will prob
ably be about 10 mills, bringing in a
revenue of $4,000. Last year, in ad-
dition to the ten-mill levy provided
for by the charter, q special levy of
seven mills was levied, There will be
no necessity of making a a special
levy this year, as the fines and forfeit
ures in the police court will amount
approximately, to the amount of the
special levy. This indicates that the
total tax levy in the city. for CITY,
county school and state taxes, will
be less than last year.

Police Court.-Harry Woodwork
who alleges that he is a printer, was
up before Judge Anderson yesterday
on a charge of vagrancy He plead
not guilty, but the evidence was so
overwhelmingly strong against him,
that he was an idle an dissolute per-
son having no visible means of sup
port, and was dope fiend," Judge
Anderson was very liberal with him
and gave him the limit-$S00 fine or
100 days in Jail. 1t would take the
aerage printer week to earn $500,
and so Woodwork decided he would
leave town on the next beat, If the
Judge would kindly permit him to do
so. The sentence was suspended on
condition that he leave town, and this
morning Chief Gammal will take him
up to the Tongue Point buoy depot,
give him q tie ticket to Goble and wish
him God speed on his 60 mile journey.
He will be headed due east.

Want Woman Suffraae--Frank Spi

Want Woman Suffrage-Frank Spit
tie. attorney for the town of Seaside,
went to The seaport town last Tues
day night, to attend n meeting of the
common council. As he stepped off
the train. he was met by a delega-
tion of young ladies, attired In white,
and prepossessing in appearance, one
of them accosted him as he allghted
from the train and asked II he was
Attorney Spittle. Frank, blushingly
acknowledged the soft impeachment,
whereupon the leader stated that a
committee of the women of Seaside
had been appointed to wait on him and
hay him prepare an ordinance to be
passed at the meeting of the common
council, providing for woman suffrage
In the city election. Frank did not
take his law library with him. but be-
ing sufficiently versed on constitu-
tional law, informed the ladies', in
his usual gallant manner, that there
was an impednet In the way Of their
attaining their desire, In that the con-
stitutlon OF the state prohibited fe
males from voting at any election. and
until that defect was removed he
would be powerless to act. He SYM
pahized with the young ladies and
assured them he would use his Of
flcial position and influence to see
that the constitution was amended,
even If 1t only applied to the town
of Seaside, so that the women could
vote at the next election. He assured
the bevy of young ladies that he was
heart and soul with them In their
cause for emancipation and pledged
himself to do his utmost to see that
they were placed on an equal foot
ing with the men in their rights of
suffrage. II Frank ever runs for an
office, he will get all the women votes
at Seaside, as he Is distinctively |
ladies' man.

PAT DEMONSTRATION
ANENT THE BAR
WELL KNOWN CITIZEN HAS Ac.
cENTuATED SOME or GOV.
EMINENT MAps--soME TIME.
LY CONCLUSIONS ON SUBJECT.

A prominent citizen Of this city has
made a pat and timely demonstra-
ti0n OF the utility for rather the non.
utility Of the jetty work al the mouth
OF the Columbia river.
He has taken the maps issued by
the government IN the matter OF
sonndlngs on the bar. at three spe-
clfc periods since 1878. and has care
fully and accurately shaded the re-
corded depths OF water on and about
the bar. using 25 feet as a maximum
depth for marking. all the clear spaces
Indicating greater depth than that.
and these maps he has had carefully
photographed, the results showing,
conclusIyely, that, after years Of work
and the expenditure OF millions Of
money. there was absolutely less water
In the bar channel In January last.
than there WAS before the jet.y work
began.
The map made In 1873 reveals n
depth Of 60 feet. that Of 1892, records
n feet. and that Of 1906 shows a
scant 24ia feet. There In something
very tangible In this. M the whole
scheme Of tracing Is made upon a
government predicate. and there IL no
room for disputing the facts ascer-
tnined.
II would be idle TO suppose that
80 well thought out device had left
no conviction In the mind OF It's au-
thor and he IN candid enough to ad-
nit he rcslIzes the jetty is a proven
failure. and deprecates the further ap-
preparation OF government money in
its behalf.
From this deduction. however, the
Morning Astorian differs broadly and
must insist that II would be manifest
ly unfair 10 seek so hopeless con-
clusion without the benefit OF final
and ample appropriation and test
based upon the actual completion OF
the system, as devised by the govern
ment engineers. IT. when that is done
the depths do not advance with rela-
tive appropriateness, then the harsher
determination may be applicable.
This paper IL convinced OF the fur
ther necessity OF constant use of
the government dredger Chinook on
the bar during the interim. II, as is
now held by many In position to
know whereof they speak. there will be
no river and harbor appropriations
made during the coming session OF
then the urgency Of dredg-
Ing IL, and will be, infinitely more
In default of such inter-
work on the bar, 1t will be-
come almost insurmountable before
the time that must be allowed for the
OF the ietties. And, that
II will prove Its own necessity, and
efficacy, Is the real hope that animates
nll men In this country. The bar must
be kept reasonably clear and not al
lowed to congest to n point OF useless
ness.
