Rich Pine Land.

The News has often published facts
concerning the productiveness OF the
pine lands of this section, and will pub
lish more because there are still those
who doubt the truth. Tell a man it's
pine land and he qrits right there, be-
cause the average man believes that
pine land will not produce. Saturday
the News editor, accompanied, by his
family, rode out to E. R. Hesdley,s
three miles east Of Troy on Burnt ridge.
Here is farm that is just maturing
its first crop, on land that was recently
cleared, some of this spring, and we
were surprised at what we saw. NJ.
Headley has about twenty live acres Of
oats, spring sown, and walked with us
through the field. The average OF the
field was about up to our arm pits,
while in at least one place we walked
into oats that reached the top CT our
hats. We never saw finer oats, for the
entire field is clean and we'll filed, and
would do credit to soil that had been
under cultivation for some time. From
the oats we visited his corn and while
we are no judge Of corn we think it
would be hard to find finer field than
Mr.. Headly has this year growing be-
tween the rows of two-year-old or
chard Of winter apples. Some of the
stalks were, when We visited the patch,
six feet tall, and it hadn't its growth by
whole lot. Mr.. Headley was justly
proud of the showing he has made for
first crop on pine sod and we are Of
the opinion that he has a right to be.
He certainly has fine showing of oats
and corn. And it shows that the pine
land of this section is excellent sol
and will and does produce good crops

Uniformity In Everything.

The above is the motto that is NOV
ing the assessor of King County. Wash
ington, in his work When Thomas A.
Parish was elected assessor, he had ideas
of his own, and proceeded to organize
his Office on the theory that the public
should be assessed equally. He work
Ell along that line and is accomplishing
wonders. Here are some Of the results
of his policy OF uniformity in every
thing"
What, then, are the results of this
uniformity in everything methodist
The following may prove an eye opener
to the public;
In 1907, the assessed valuation Of the
franchises OF four steam roads operating
In seattle was s220,0J0 rs against $40, 900
in 1906; of four street railways, three of
which are insignificant, 5,23S, 675 as
against bare So, 1857 listed by the two
in 1906; of ten telephone and telegraph
companies s41S,056 as against $4,000
listed by one in 1906; of three lighting
and power companies So, 90S,6S2, of which
sum more than a million apiece il now
listed by the two companies as against
nothing in 1906.
The assessed valuation of franchises
in the county of King for the year 1907
aggregates So, 7S6.4l3 as against 1907 ,5S7
in 1906-an increaseeworthy of the name
enormous. On per cent basis of
taxatipn. that used last year, $263, 592
will roll into the Golfers of the county as
against Sc, 227 in 1906.
Such, in brief, is the history of fran
chise taxation in\ King County under
Parish. Personal property this year is
assessed on a valuation Of something
like $S7 ,000, 900 as against slS, 36, 1873 in
906. The loss of more than $500. 900
by the exemption of moneys and credits
will show that the 1907 valuations prac-
itcally double tn Sc of the proceeding
: year.
: Real property, with the exception OF
improvements, can only be assessed on
even years. Hence Parish will be COM
5 PEELED to defer his operations on that
class Of property until 1908, and conse.
r quently no results can be announced
, But while such is the case, he is by no
means idle. The manner in which he
t is cruising the timber lands of King
: County clearly demonstrates that.
In former years these vast tracts OF
lands have been assessed on a valuation
8 of So an acre. Instances can be cited
where the owners of certain sections
= assed at 1880, have refused 500, 900
: for the same pieces of property. Parish
has twelve crews of three men each
q cruising the country. This undertaking
n will cost in the neighborhood OF SIS, 900
q "The county will get every cent o.
q that outlay back-and more" Such ID
the statement made by Parish, who is
firm in the belief that the limb n barons
have long escaped their share OF the
burden of taxation.
Il strongly favor publicity in every
: thing connected with the assessor d
- office" he declares. "The public is en-
> titled to know what its servants are do
! ing. The assessment rolls should be
b published. Then the rich property
=, owner will have no chance to get ia
cover"

That there would he too much water
That there wouldn't be enough water.
That the President wanted 1t for ducG

That Ryan wanted 1t for a frog pond.
That Rockefeller wanted 1t to mix with
his water oil.
That Speaker Cannon was sure that 1t
would bring war and give him chance
to fire himself OFF.
That great big hole would suddenly
appear in the bottom and all the water
run out and flood China.
That 1t would take n force of 10000
loeksmiths TO keep the locks In order.
That there would be so many bullheads
and catfish in the big ditch that ships
couldn't pass through.
That there never WAS the slightest in

He replied that he wasn't, and that he

WHAT ALLIED HIM.

A policeman had found a man lying on
the sidewalk in an unconscious condition
and sent him to the hospital in an ambu-
lance A doctor spent half an hour in
overhauling him, and then gave up in de-
spair and astonishment. The man seemed
a total wreck, and yet no bones were
broken. He appeared to be on the point
of dying, and yet he had no malady that
could be discovered. He simply sighed
and moaned, and now and then drew
long breath.
The doctor was about to bleed the pa
tient and then follow with electric shocks,
when a tall, gaunt woman, with an iron
jaw, made her appearance at the hospital
and was admitted. When she was ushered
into the ward where the new arrival lay
she said to the doctor who had worked
over him:
Eyes, that's my husband. / knew Ia
either find him here or at the morgue. Is
he pretending to be unconscious!'
"He is unconscious, madam. In fact, he
will not live half an hour. His Is mys-
terious case, and I hope you can throw
some light on it. Has he been illf'
mot in 80 years"
HAS he met with any accident of later"
'He is too lazy for that"
do you think he has taken anything to
commit suicideP"
"You couldn't drive him to such a
thing"
But it's a queer case, madam very
queer case. 1 don't think I ever met one
like 1t. Can't you give me the slightest
hint TO helm me- understand itY'
Yes, think-I can" replied the woman
After supper this evening told him
that he would have to start in In the
