ENFORCING A STATUTE.

ENFORCING A STATUTE.
The public highways are often de-
faced and the beauties Of nature set
at naught by the posting o. glaring
signs and posters upon trees. fence
posts and telephone poles. Recently
this method Of advertising has been
followed by boosters for the brewers

thus and SO has been faunted from
the roadside. The state legislature
wisely enacted law couple Of years

making II unlawful to post signs or
placards OF any nature, except OF
direction and distance. upon state
highways. The Josephine county at

PEACE NOT YET DUE.

The expressions made in the speech

NO peace till one or the other OF the

TAX HALF PAID

Tuesday was the last day on which
to pay the special taxes in the de-
funct Cadron Dam and Levee Dis
trict, under the order of chancery
court making the assessment, and
Receiver w. B. Wilson said today
that only about half the taxes had
been paid. A movement was inaugu-
rated last week by ]. H. Cunningham
of Enola to contest the payment of
the tax, but so far as known no legal
steps in that direction have yet been
taken. Attorney j. c. Clark, repre-
senting the estate of George H. Burr,
for whose engineering services the
tax is being collected, said today the
books would remain open until time
for the receiver to make his report
TO chancery court, which meets the
fourth Monday in this month. At
that session it is expected the court
will make an order foreclosing the
lien upon all property on which the
special assessment has not been paid.
