PROMINENT PEOPLE

English literary circles are decidedly inter
ested in the announcement that this years
Nobel prize for literary pre.eminence will, in all
probability, be awarded to Algernon Charles
Swinburne, often called the greatest living poet
and unquestionably the foremost producer OF
English poetic literature since the Victorians.
Algernon Charles Swinburne has been a con-
siderable figure in British letters since 1861, and
a towering one in the worlds poetry for at least
a quarter of a century. 1t is more true of
Swinburne than of most poets that no genuine
estimate of their work can be given in their
lifetime Swinburne's work has always created
the utmost degree of bitter contention and 1t is
moreover so many sided as to be difficult of
ready comparison. There are those who readily

SEEKS TO PREVENT FLOODS

George Otis Smith, director of the United
States geological survey, has invited the officers
of the leading railroads of the country to a con
ference to study out a, cooperative plan for
saving hundreds of thousands of dollars and the
scores of lives that are lost every year in this
country through floods. 1t is proposed to gather
facts as to the amount of water floating in the
rivers of tn, country under certain conditions
and in different periods of the year. 1t Is pro.
posed that the roads through their employees
take daily readings Sf the water conditions at
all bridges and culverts. By that means when
there is danger of rise the government and
other roads can cooperate in either averting the
trouble or in getting the danger and the fnan
Cial loss down TO the minimum point

FAKE DAIRY INSPECTOR
ROBBED THE FARMER

one of the latest types of swndle
that has been perpetrated on some of
the unsuspecting farmers Of west
ern locality was worked this wise:
There has been a good deal of talk
about bovine tuberculosis in the state
in question, and, taking their cue
from this, two fellows joined hands
tc fleece the dairymen of the section.
One well dressed, wearing glasses
and having a professional and learn
ed bearing, went through a neighbor-
hood inspecting the dairy cows rep
resenting himself to be a state dairy
Inspector.
In one instance when he ran across
a good looking herd of cows he con-
demned a dozen animals as afflicted
with tuberculosis. but he told the
farmer in leaving not to say anything
about it, but to sell them for what
ever he could get for shipment out
Of the state.
Two or three days after this fakir
No. 2, informed on the quiet of what
had been done, came along to the
farmers place and asked If he hau
any cows for sale. The farmer ex-
planned matters and thought himself
lucky to get $40 head for the sup
posedly diseased cattle.
When he learned few days latei
that the whole business was a fake
pure and simple, the dictionary was

The Wells-Fargo Express Company
will resist the payment of the tax as
levied by Assessor Keeney, of Lane
county against the company's rights
ard privileges on the Southern Pacl>
fic company's railway lines in Lane
county for 1907 says the Eugene
Guard.
A suit has been instituted in the
circuit court, seeking to enjoln the
county from collecting the tax.
The complaint. as filed this morn
ing by the attorneys for the company
Snow & McCamant of Portland is in
substance as follows:
That in said assessment for the year
1907 the assessor of Lane county as
sessed the property of the plaintiff
therein as follows: Transportation
rights and privileges over 1890 miles
at $500, $15,1SO; personal property,
s75; total, s15.155.
That said pretended assessment as
aforesaid was transferred to the taA
roll of Lane county for 1907 and a
tax levied against the plaintiff in the
sum of $2S1,4O, 'of which $2.25 was
tax on personal property of the
plaintiff, assessed at SIS, and s229.2l
was a tax levied upon the alleged
transportation rights and privileges.
That it was the intention of the as
| SCISSOR in levying the assessment OF
S15,1SO aforesaid to assess to the
plaintiff the railway lines of the ore,
gon & California Railroad company
/ and all other railway lines in the
county operated by the Southern Pa
cfic company.
That PLAINTIFF has no interest what
soever in said railway lines or in any
railway lines in Lake county. That
the railway lines were likewise assess
ed at such a sum as the assessor be-
lieved to be their value.
That the assessment included the
value of the railway lines for all pure
poses, including their usefulness for
transportation of express matter. The
plaintiff AYERS that the assessor hau
no authority and no power to levy
second assessment on the railway
properties against the plaintiff, or any
one else whatsoever; that plaintiff has
no connection with the oregon & Cal
ifornia Railroad company, or with the
Southern Pacific company except that
the plaintiff ships goods over the rail-
way lines.
