i law takes effect. The bill creates
nine more Superior Judges In addi
tion to the Circuit Judges, who be
come such. The state is redistricted
for the Superior Courts into judicial
districts as follows:
ilaker one judge, Benton and Lin

The subsidiary bill passed abolishes
the office of County Judge, and cre

will serve as third Commissioner,
and as chairman of the Hoard of

expires. Then each county will elect
Commissioners, and the Commission
ers will elect their own chairman.
The pay of the Commissioners falls
back upon an old law which allows
them compensation per day for only
those days on which they do active
work. The County Judge also comes
under this old law, and his pay will
hi $ti a day for those days he works.
The law fixes the pay of Commission
ers different in different counties,
but it runs from $:t.f0 to 4.50 per
day.

announcement that Dig Ben will con

to certain contemplated changes in
the business. It Is necessury that the
stock be drastically reduced within
tho next fifteen days. Hence, this big
sale which Hlg Hen Is conducting.
Of keen interest to this community
is the announcement, in Josephson's
adv., that they have decided to con
tinue business In Roseburg, nnd will
remain at the old stand. When this
good old firm announced, six months
ago, their intention of selling out
their business and quitting the local
field, the news was received with
deep regret especially by the old
timers who had traded at Roseburg's
pioneer store for thirty-five years.
"It won't seem like Roseburg, with
out tho old, familiar store on the
corner," people were henrd to re
mark. It was this kindly sentiment
as much as anything olse, that filial
