ROurue'S Taxes S2 al

1t will be interesting in the extreme
to every citizen of Oregon at this par
ticular time to know to what extent
the senior United States senator. JON
athan Bourne. :pays in the way of taxes
in Oregon. Here is a statement from
the Portland Journal of March 3, 1912.
"The tax rolls of Mutnomah county
show Jonathan Bourne, Jr., senior sem
ator from Oregon, will pay $2.44. in
taxes this year. This is on his personal
property. which consists of office furni-
ture in his office in the Chamber of
Commerce building. This furniture is
assessed at 500. No assessment of
real property appears on the tax books.
The registration books show the sena-
tors home to be on the second floor of
the Portland hotel, but the tax books
do not show he has any personal prop
ertV there" ."

the seventh judicial district, has been
making close campaign of the com

"E. c. Smith, of Hood River, candi
date for the office of district attorney,
was in town last Saturday interview
ing the Republican voters. All voters
like to meet a candidate and size him
up. Judging from the citizens here,
Mr.. Smith is evidently taVorite Sc

the case which appealed 10 me most of

wAsHouT CAUSE OF WRECK
Crack Train on the Milwaukee Roae
Goes Into Ditch.

The first section of train No. on
the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul
railroad, known as the Pioneer linn
tied, was wrecked near Homer, eight
miles east of Winona.
Two sleepers, a baggage and buffet
car went into the ditch and were par
TALLY submerged in the Mississippi
river. The track runs parallel to the
river at this point.
The wreck was caused by heavy
rains which washed out the roadbed
and let the train slide from the track.
The second section of the train came
around the wreck on the double track
and took the passengers and what
remained on the track of the first Sec
ton to Winona.
That there was no loss of life Is due
to the fact that the train had had
warnings to watch for washouts and
was running slowly at the time OF the
accident.

ROOSEVELT GAINS

From Ohio.

Columbus, O., May 25.-Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt gained two more
delegates in the Ohio primaries than
has been accorded him, according to
the official count of the Thirteenth dis
trict, giving him thirty-four delegates
to President Taft's eight. The official
count shows that Thomas Maxwell
and w. A. Geer, Roosevelt delegates,
were elected by small majorities.
The error discovered in the Fir
teenth district, which gives Colonel
Roosevelt both delegates from the Fiji
teenth, was offset by the loss of one
in the Sixth, E. E. Eulass for Taft de-
feating w. H. Baum. There has been
no change in the Democratic standing,

AMERICAN CONSUL
GENERAL IS KILLED
Frank D. Hill Of Minnesota Dead
at Frankfort, Germany.

United States Consul General Frank
D. Hill of Minnesota was killed by
falling over the railing of the staircase
in a big hotel at Frankf0rt-On-the-
Main, Germany.
He was found on the ground floor
with broken skull.
It is assumed the fatal accident was
caused by spell of giddiness.
The accident to Mr. Hill occurred at
the Frankfurter Hof, where he resided.
There were no witnesses.
Frank D. Hill was native OF Min
nesota, having been born at Pine ISL
and May %, 1862. He was educated
at the University of Minnesota and ad-
mitted to the bar in 1884. He was ap-
pointed consul at Asuncion, Paraguay,
in 1887, and has been in the consular
service ever since, serving at Monte
.video, in Uruguay, for three years
and subsequently in Venezuela and
Brazil. His efficiency as a representa-
tive of the government attracted at
tention early in his career and in
1899 he was appointed to the impor-
tant post of consul general at Amster-
dam, where he remained eight years.
In 1907 he was transferred to st.
Petersburg, but the post there was not
at all to his liking, his interest being
chiefly in promoting the betterment of
commercial relations between our
country and the district to which he
was credited, and he was transferred
to Barcelona, Spain. From Barcelona
he was sent to Frankfort, Germany, a
very important post commercially.

Guysbert, therefore. received not only
three duckings. but also three lashings.

Eating at temporary mining camp

first sight seem alluring. But you'll
find that the frijoles (strong red Mexi-
can beans) and the cold sour coughs,
faxed with black from the pan. and
the strong tea don't taste so bad, after
all. Maybe you think you couldn't eat
from battered tin plates with battered
black forks that faint the food amid a
litter of saddles. soiled mattresses, ri.
fies and tobacco juice. But. then. per-

Ancient incubation.

The practice of incubation against
smallpox Is usually supposed to belong
to the eighteenth century. The suppo-
sition is true enough so far as Europe
is concerned. but it was no more than
a rediscovery Of facts well known
ages ago. incubation was practiced
by the ancient Brahmans, and their
method is fully described in the vedas.
They rubbed the skin Of the patient
until 1t was red, then scratched 1t with
a sharp instrument and laid upon 1t
q piece of cotton soaked in the vari-
olous pus obtained from smallpox
vesicles Of the previous year. Such re-
appearances Of ancient knowledge are
common enough. indeed far more COM
mon than is usually admitted. Among
the major scientific theories and dis
coveries of today there is scarcely one
that can sustain a claim to originality
In the face Of our increasing knowl-
edge Of oriental literature.

Primitive Screws.

Screws are still made in India just
as they were made originally, by wind
ing two soft wires together around a
mandrel. The wires are then carefully
separated, and one Of them is soldered
into a tube or nut, while the other is
soldered to q short rod. All the silver
smiths make their screws In this way,
and they are all left handed, for they
are wound over and over by the right
hand. Screw bolts and screw presses
were introduced by Europeans, and
for many years all the cotton export
ed from India was compressed by o
massive screw Of wood, turned round
by cattle yoked to long lever. This
screw may still be found in remote dis
tricts. 1t Is cut entirely by hand and
is set out by winding two ropes around
