TO every individual-but we should be
prepared at all times to accept it when

we're well repaid for time and money
spent for the privilege OF listening to
that one address.

REFUND REBATE MONEY
Commissioners Act in Case of
the 0. R. & N.
Vouchers Forwarded to Pay Taxes
Before March IS, but Local
Agent Waits Too Lonq.

The board Of county commissioners
have been in session this week attending
to the county's business. Among other
things that came up for consideration
was the refunding OF payment to the o.
X. 4 n. of the 3 per cent discount on
the payment of their taxes on real
property, amounting to $11617S The
law provides that taxes paid on or be
fore March Is of each year are subject
to rebate of 3 per cent. The taxes on
the realty Of the o. r. & N. in Whitman
county amounted last year to $685.
726 %, which sum was not paid into
four days over the time limit for pay
ment in order to secure the 3 per cent
rebate. f. L. Abbott, the agent at this
place, appeared before the board Wednee-
day morning and explained that the
negligence to pay the taxes on the 18th
was entirely his own, as the office at
Portland had issued three vouchers.
dated the 18th, to pay the company's
taxes, which were received here the
morning of the 18th, plenty of time to
reach the treasurer's office; that being
very busy handling overweight he merely
opened the envelope containing the
vouchers, taking them to be vouchers
for the payment Of claim of electric
light company; that on Monday, the
18th, upon further investigation he
found that the envelope contained
vouchers to pay taxes, and the next day,
upon appearing at the treasurer's office,
was told that it was too late to get the
benefit of the per cent rebate and that
the full amount must be paid. The
correspondence between Mr.. Abbott and
his superiOrs was also presented, show
ing that the failure to pay the taxes on
or before the 18th was the fault of the
local agent and that the company held
him personally responsible for this re-
bate money of $1161.7S. He was told
that he would be expected to make this
amount good, he being under bonds to
the company and his bondsmen would
be asked to satisfy the demand if he
failed to do go.
Under the circumstances, and it ap
pearing to the board that no negligence
OF criminal nature was intended, that
the officials of the company had for

HOME FROM GOLDEN STATE.
Roundabout Journey Necessary to
Reach CoIfax,

Reach CoIfax.
R. L. McCroskey, accompanied by his
wife and children and Mrs L. I. Bragg
returned last Friday from a two months
visit at Santa Barbara and other points
of interest in the Golden State. Santa
Barbara is one Of the mission towns
with history. The old adobe mission
founded by Father Junipero Sierra about
the year 1863 overlOoks the tapping
waters of the Pacific, and can be seen
by the mariner many leagues at sea.
Around this old mission spread farms
and vineyards. where the Indians we're
taught the arts of civilization. The
vines and trees planted by them over a
century ago yield bounteously in fruit of
all kinds, and spread a canopy nowhere
surpassed for depth and beauty.
The McCrOskeys left Santa Barbara
for the home trip at the time the great
food in the Sacramento valley was at
it's height. A cave in the long tunnel in
the Tehachipa mountains prevented a
return home that way, making it neces-
sary TO go to Los Angeles and thence by
way of Lathrop to San Francisco. A
large portion of the Sacramento valley
was under water, Stockton and the sur
rounding country being the worst SUI
ferers. Sacramento was not inundated,
but train service directly north through
Marysvile, Redding and other towns
along the line of the Southern Pacific
was paraly zed, the only recourse being
to take the Central Pacific to Ogden in
Utah, thence switch to the Oregon Short
Line and take the tack for home over
that road. This meant travelling south,
thence north, thence east, thence west
bearing north, as the surveyor would de-
scribe it, over several different roads in
order to reach home. The trip, though
roundabout, was made without trouble
and the stay in California was greatly
enjoyed by the entire party.
Mr. McCroskey was asked about San
Francisco. He remarked that while a
great deal OF building was being done,
the effects OF the earthquake and fire of
last April we're appalling and it would
take some time to efface the scars made
at that time. The people, however, we're
hard at work, many new structures had
been erected and old ones reconstructed,
and time would probably find the city

To Resurvey Line Of Canal.

With party of fourteen men En-
gineer Harold Doolittle of the reclama-
tion service will go to the Teton basin.
He will relocate the line of the canal in
the canyon. Chief Engineer Jacobs, after
making an investigation of the location
Of the line, deemed it advisable to have
it relocated. This change will necessitate
less labor in working on the side hills.
The work Of making the resurvey will
probably consume about six weeks, and
when finished actual construction work
will start Yakima Herald.

MARINE

Captain Freeman of the Inter-Island
Steam Navigation Company leaves for
San Francisco on Wednesday by the
Alameda. When he returns he will
come in command of the Mauna Kea,
the new steamer which will take the
place of the Kinau on the run be-
tween this city and Hilo.
The Kinau will be placed on the run
to Kauai, though it has not been de-
cided as yet whether she will take the
place of the w. G. Hall or of the Mi
Ixahala. Until the new steamer ar
rives, the Kinau will be commanded
by Captain Nelson, now in command
of the Helene, which is laid UP for
repairs. This will last till the return
of the new boat, when other changes
will be made.
With the arrival of the Mauna Kea
it is expected that the time made be-
tween this city and Hilo will be cut
down appreciably. The new steamer
is much faster than the Kinau, and
it is expected that if she leaves here
at noon on Tuesday, she will reach
HTo early Wednesday morning. in
stead of between 1 and 3 O'Clock in
the afternoon, as the Kinau does at
present.
