September lk . 20 und 21 are the
fair dates.
The date was moved
■ihead one day In order that the ex
hibits could be gathered together and
taken to the state fair at Salem.
Last year the exhibits were hur
riedly thrown together before being
ikon to Salem and the result was
'hat those in charge o f the exhibit
at Sal.'in, did not have the ticne to
prepare the exhibits as well as they
would have done had they had m ore
time.
Hay Tarbell, the- newly elected
secretary-treasurer, has been a m em
ber o f the fair board for the past
year und undeisia nds the duties uf

always taken a prominen t and active
part in fair business and has been a
consistent and regular exhibitor. He
says that he will do his utmost to

With the exception o f about six

Heluns-Pittsburg road is com pleted
and now the county court is f ig u r

rocked.
Roadmaater MIU b has turnisheu tho
court with the estimate o f the cost
of the work and it is prohabla that
the court will soon call f o r bids.
Judge W hite stated tiiai tne court
preferred to let the rockin g by c o n
tract, the contractu, to furnish the
laboi and machinery and do i..e w ork
and the county u> furnish tho rock
supply.
The sp ecifications prepared hy in*

is fr om Trenh oim to a p o .n l one mite
west o f Sixteen Hill mil. It is also
planned to widen the grade from
Trenhoim lo the Little C la u k a u ie
At several places the tills are too
narrow to permit the building o f a
12-foot macadam roadway. T n e es
timated cost of thi„ work is around
f l o . u o o which will leave ap proxi
mately $40,000 for th e rockin g ot
the road.
The market road la x will bring in

way commission nas available $21,-
000 for the work. Th ere is a bal
ance to he paid the Johnson C on
tracting com pa n y f o r the work they
are now doing.
It will am ount to
about $7,o00, so the court will have
about $60,000 to spend on the road.
The c ontra ctor w h o has been d o

Circuit court. Ju dge Eakin pre
siding, will convene here on Monday,
March 13. So far there is not a case
on the dock et w hich will require a
ju ry trial which will be w elcom e
news to the farm er ju rym en just at
this busy season o f the year.
T w o d iv orce cases in which, it is
alleged, there were irregularities in
grantlug the div orce* are lo be heard.
One o f them is Alary E sch ebeck vs.
Herman Eschebeck, fo r m e r resident*
o f Scappoose.
On A pril 24. 1 9 1 » ,
Mrs. Eschebeck obtain ed a div orce
from her husband and in February,
1921, w as married to 1’ . L. Turner.
Evidently the marital bliss o f tli*
Turners was sbort-lived for Air».
Tu rner instituted divorce proceeding*
in Multnomah county asking that
the marital ties be severed.
It ap
pears that Turner, through his at
torney, c laim ed that he was not le
gally married to Mrs. Turner, c la im
ing that the district attorney o f Co
lumbia coun ty had not been served
with the divorce su m m ons when the
div orce proceedings o f Mrs. Esche
beck was Instituted, therefore, the
div orce was null and void and the
plaintiff was not Mrs. Turner but
Mrs. Eschebeck And now comes Mrs.
Eschebeck, through her attorney, O.
M. Hic key, askin g that the div orce
pr oceedings o f the Eschebecks be
vacated and that an alia* su m m ons
be made on the district attorney. In
oth er words. Mrs. Eschebeck is again
seeking to obtain a div orce fr o m Mr.
Eschebeck, who. It appears, is yet her
husband.
Another divorce case is that o f
Bert Trindle vs. C. F. Trindle. The
pla in tiff was granted a div orce In
the circuit court tor Columbia c oun
ty on July 18. 1921.
Mrs. Trindle
alleges that she did not kn> w o f the
divorce proceeding s o r that a d iv orce
had beeti granted her husband until
September 8, 1921.
That she was
served with no papers although h^r
form er husband knew o f her w here
abouts. She alleges that there were
irregularities o r frau d in obtain in g
the divorce and many misrepresenta
tions. She asks that tho divorce pro
ceedin gs be vacated.
Her form er
husband is resisting such pr ocedure
and dentes many allegations o f the
plain tiff.
A perusal o f the paper*
in the rase Indicates that the c ouple
had en cou ntered many stofm s on the
marital sea. Som e property matter*
| are involved. The case wtll be hot
ly c o n tested ’ It Is thought, f o r th*
ex husband does not seem to be par
ticularly fon d It his ex -w jfe nor pine
tor her com pany.
