that the construction work on the 1000

be completed this week but travel over
this stretch will not be allowed until
about August 20. This will complete
the paving construction program in the

Mr. Brown took out of his pocket-

Mrs. Brown handed it to Mrs. An

Mrs. Andrews handed the note to Mr.

Mr. Jordan huudt*d it to Mr. Hadley,
requesting his lumber bill, while Mr.
Hadley gave it back tu Mr. Brown,

by
Cottage Grove’s sleuths, Deputy
Sheriff Pitcher und his assistant,
Frank McFarland! That is a ques
tiou that the said sleuths would
like to have answered to their satis
faction.
The reason they ask the qusetion
is this:
In a recent moonshine raid they
captured four gull.ms of stuff which
had it all over the old-time forty-
rod whisky
The said moonshine,
together with the manufacturers
thereof, were car. fully inveutoried
and turned over to the county of
ficers who had come here to traus
port them to the county jail.
The next day the Eugeue papers
noted the arrival of the moonshine
manufacturers but of the four gal
Ions of whisky only three were re
ported as having reached the deiti
nation to which they were billed
from here.
The officers here do not state
that they believe the county o ffi
cers and their prisoners :;ot away
with the gallon of illicit dope dur
ing the journey to Eugene, but they
do believe that if this did not hap
pen the county officers have u good
case against the Eugene newspapers
for defamation of character in the

statements.
