EAGLE POINT NOTES.

Temple Brown, who has been
teaching school up near Prospect,
walked into town Sunday and re-
mained until the afternoon train
Monday. He was entertained at the
home of A. j. Florey.
On a Friday evening not long ago
the members of the Junior b. Y. p.
L. decided TO have a social, and with
out consulting older heads announced
at school that such an affair would
take place at the home of l.. L. Sim
mons that night News of the same
reached the ears of the entertaining
family quite late in the evening, but
in spite OF the fact everything went
off pleasantly and the kiddies said
they were given a good time.
The election was a very quiet affair
as far as Eagle Point was concerned.
The meeting at Reece creek con-
Quoted by Brother Lindblad closed
Friday evening of last week, The
services were well attended but there
were no professed conversions
Pastor Simmons, wife and daugh-
ter Melva went to Butte Falls Tues
day and came back Thursday. They
visited in the home OF w. S. Kee.
The pastor preached two sermons
while there to very attentive audi
ences.
H. o. and w. l.. Childreth have
purchased the blacksmith shop on the
county road from Fisher & Matthews
and are now ready for business. We
hope for them the best kind OF sue
cess.
The promised entertainment for the
school children came off Monday
evening as scheduled. The hall wa'
we'll filled by S o'clock and a few
moments later an old-fashioneC
school bell was rung by Mr.. Hazel
ton and his pupils began to enter th'
hall by the back door His pupil
were OF various ages. ranging from
80 to 20. If you had judged from
their clothing you would have put tn,
ages at from 6 to IS. IL was a char
acteristic bunch of pupils. Piece
| that were spoken in childhood com
! posed most of the program. The au
dience was kept in a roar OF laughter
almost from the beginning of the pro
gram. To say that the children en-
/ joyed it is putting it mildly. While
there was a good bit OF nonsense con
nected with it, yet some one has saiC
that "a little nonsense now and ther
is relished by the best OF men"

Squabble Over
Railroad Taxes

Under the Interpretation recently
put upon the tax laws by the State
Tax Commission, Jackson county is
hard hit this year on account OF the
refusal OF the Southern Pacific Rail-
road Company to pay its tax assess
ment on the old government grant
lands which it acquired in taking
over the property OF the old Oregon
and California Railroad Company.
These lands being in litigation and
about to be taken from the company
by the government for non-fulfillment
of contract, the company refuses to
pay its tax till the contest is settled.
The tax on such OF these lands as
lie in Jackson county amounts to APP
proximately $4,000. Payment OF
this amount has been refused by the
railroad company pending decision OF
the case now before the courts. On
the other hand the state of Oregon
has an interest in the tax moneys
thus tied up and it is clamoring for
its due-regardles OF whether the
county collects from the Southern Pa
cific Company or not. The amount
due the state out OF the $4,000 is
about $4,000. In regard to pay
ment of same State Tax Commission
er Galloway says:
Under the decree of Judge VOL
verton in the federal court, July /,
1913, it appears that title to these
| lands is now vested in the United
| States pending the appeal by the
company TO the higher courts. 1t
/ seems doubtful if the company can
be compelled to pay taxes on the
lands under the present condition OF
the title.
We have asked the attorney gen.
eral TO make a careful investigation
of the matter and give us his written
opinion thereon. 1t is our intention
at an early date to send specific ad'
vice to the assessors, setting out what
We believe to be the proper procedure
as to these lands for the year 1914
! "In the event these lands are EN-
! tered on the assessment rolls OF the
several counties, it appears that th'
! tax commission would be poweries
| to make any deduction or allowance
! for them in equaliZing between th'
! counties and apportioning the state
taxes. Section 3646, Lords Oregon
Laws. says that in no case shall an!
I deduction or abatement be made
from the apportionment OF any coun
" on account of the delinquency o.
any taxpayer, or error or omission II
the assessment roll."
Discussing the situation as II ap
plies to Josephine county, the Grants
Pass Courier says: Should the rall
road company win on its appeal u
the supreme court, the back taxes
will. of course, be made up with IN
terest by the company before th'
three years period of redemption eX
pires. If title remains in the govern
ment. the lands will not be taxable
till they have passed into private own
ership, which would be several years
if they are opened to homestead en-
try. The question OF taxes is not tn'
dominant one as concerns these lands
however. Held by the railroad com
pany, they have remained undeVel
oped, and the country has been re
tarded through the policy OF the hold
ers. They should be given into pri
yate ownership for development a
the earliest possible moment, not FOL
the taxes they would yield, but fo
the crops of alfalfa, OF fruit and o.
, grain"

Court Decisions of
Interest

A Vagrant With Money-A convic-
ton under statute defining Migrants
as able-bodied persons who habitually
loaf, loiter, and idle for the larger
portion of their time without any regu-
lar employment and without visible
means of support was affirmed by the
court of criminal appeals of Texas in
Branch VS.. State, 165 Southwestern
Reporter, COS, Notwithstanding the fact
that defendant at the time of his ar
rest had $40 on his persons. THE OBJ
ject and purpose of our said yag-
rant statute on this subject" said the
court, lis that when the status OF
course of conduct of a person is that
of one who habitually loafs, loiters,
and idles in a town or village the larg-
er portion of his time without my
regular employment or without any
visible means of support, he shall be
punished because of such status or
course of conduct; and, when such
status or course of conduct is shown,
it is no defense to show that he may
have money secreted about his person
Or on hand with which he pays for
some groceries, for he may have Sc
cured such money by gambling or
other unlawful and improper way, as
suggested by the evidence in this case.
and his status or course of conduct
as proved, and not by honest and re-
munerative employment" One of the
witnesses, a deputy sheriff, testified
that for some Is days before the COM
plant was filed in this case-and he
was watching him to see what he did
and did not do-he would see him
most any hour of the day standing or
sitting around on the streets near
restaurant or cold-drink stand. Every
time l would pass him, he would
dance some little jig and ask if any
one knew where he could find a poker
game"

Greek Wind Vanes.

The Greeks as far back as the fifth
century B. C. were the first to maks
regular meteorological observations,
some results of which still are pre-
served. Their great capacity for pure
science induced them to PROFOUND me-
neurological theories. At this time
they used wind vanes, and in the first
century 3. C. they built the tower OF
wind at Athens. The first quantita-
tive observations-that is, the meas
urement of rain-were made in the
first century y. d. These were made
in Palestine, and their results are pre-
served in the Mishnah.
