It will be an exceedingly small matter for each person receiving a bill of this sort to remit at once, and we trust that none may fail to so respond. As regards those who may be in aajatr? for subscription covering a number of years, we are constrained to give notice th.t if payment be not made voluntarily within a reasonable time, the accounts will be placed in the hands of an attorney for immediate collection. A not inconsiderable proportion of cnr subscribers are paid somewhat in ad- vance, and to these the amounts unearned by us will be returned as soon as we shall be able to determine and list the same. ^ HERB' AND THERE. the woroatfa aid aceittj of the: COB* ^regatiosal chureo will bold a rW sale at' %de**drog attire en Saturday, May 5?, fo*day f W*r3ne?^y) a numfi&r of pw> Sjfofrom St Regte Falls fc*ve figured in a bearing before Justice M, M„ Burnp, *elatise to a violation; of the game laws.

ONE OR TWO VfLUGE MATTERS. M A bare item that appealed in the PAL ' LADICM a week ago, to the effect that the State board of health bad approved the plans for a sewer system for Malone, should nave some elaboration. The plans in question contemplate an estimated cost of $139,000, and even if operations were limited to caring only for the localities which now have no private sewers, with such further trunk-line building as regard for economy would require in connection with the under- taking first suggested, it is. thought that we ooold not possibly proceed with less thanf?5,Q0OavaUable. It is quite reasonable to assume, in the presence of these figures, that the trus- tees will hardly he disposed even to put the proposition up to the taxpayers for decision this year. If we were riot al- ready loaded with a water debt, it might be different. However, when the plans come back from Albany it is to^ be pre- sumed that,tbe trustees will announce that tbey are open to general examina- tion, and wilt invite discussion of the matter. It may perhaps be deemed advisable to call a public meeting lor their consideration and to thresh oat the sewer question generally. ., Village water-works ownership and management are proving to be more of a problem than the enthusiasts who plunged us into the venture were willing at the time of the agitation to admit, or are now disposed to recognise. It might, iedeed, not have been as bad if tbe then board of trustees bad not, in eagerness to make a little capital and win popular favor, slashed rates id blindness and without regard for equity.. That dashing reduced the annual rentals toxabout $19,250—which sum includes the tax of about §2,600 that is collected every year on hydrant rentals—while last year the charges for taxes, inter- est and expense were $14,888, for repairs $1,530, -and tor new eon- ' atruction $370. The first three items may be regarded practically as fixed charges, not susceptible of any apprecia- ble redaction except as the total of the water debt is reduced, and repairs are not likely to average less than ia 1908, while new construction is almost sare to cdli for considerably larger expenditures. We are, for illustration, considering a heavy outlay for larger mains from the source of supply to the reservoir, and as new streets are opened additional con- struction will be necessitated in the J village*itself. Yet upon the basis of last) year's results the margin of earnings over outgo was only about $3,500—which would require nearly ninety years for the. payment of the water debU Does any sans man need to be reminded tbat a con tic nation of such conditions indefinitely would &e -crazy finance and intolerable? We might better at once face the facte a9 they actually are, and provide a rem- edy. r%ther than temportee, with injury to our public credit and self-humiliation. Plainly the first thing to be done, we b-iieve, should be the creation of a board of tvater commissioners to handle the matter. The trustees haven't, the time to give to it, even if they should be will- ing to iocur the critioiam and the clamor that would follow a rectification of the fooiishoess and blundering of the trustees who so unwarrantably cat the water ra t es. The cost for snob a body need not <* great. One of the commissioners ought perhaps to\be given a comfortable saUry, with agreement that most of his time be devoted to work, and public spirited citizens could doubtless be found to take the oth n. cpmmisBionershipS at a n iminal compensation, or for none at all. Trmn the situation could be examined ; a t elligeotly, its needs determined accur- i> ly and with certainty; and •nob pro- •lure be had as the facts might be seen '- l-maod.

Hop growinjjp is so onimportant * branch cf farming in Franklin county as compared with twenty to thirty years ago that interest in it has almost disappeared except on the part of those who still keep up then* yards, and bops for tbe tune when prices will again become remunera- tive. There was a time when fortunes were made in tbe business almost in a year, and when local merchants looked to the hop growers as their best customers —though there was, too, the tendency on ine part of growers to base expenditures on expectations, and so to indulge hr ex- travagances and to incur debts. Tbe number of farms that thus passed from tbe owners who operated them to the merchants or the money lenders was greater than it is pleasant to recall. But the realization that fat years in the business were sure to be followed by lean ones carried its lesson to many, and of late success in one season has not stimu- lated reckless expenditure as aforetime it did. '•\ ' lost year was one of the most unsatis- factory that has been experienced in a considerable time, many sales having been at hardly more than naif the actual, cost of production. Whether better condi- tions are to be en joyed in 1909 is of course problematical as yet, but indications give hope that they may so torn out. In Oregon it is reported tbat the yards generally are opening so very poorly that only about half a crop can be realised, and the news from Washington is not much better. English and European reports are gen- erally favorable, while some of the Cen- tral New York counties which used to be big producers have practically abandoned the crop of late years, and others tbat have continued to make it a specialty are reducing acreage this spring. Last week's. Waterville Times notes tbat dealers are offering fifteen cents to contract growths of 1909 in tbat vicinity, which growers are not disposed to accept—holding that old bopS have been bought up closer than for many years, and tbat with N Oregon's unfavorable outlook they should get more. Contracts are offered by buyers in Ore- gon for the next crop at 9£@10 OentS.
