What the Times told was the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but thetru'h. As presi dent of the bank.. Mr .Woodcock did urge Sheriff Burnett to maiA a rebate of taxes on certain bank shares, and Sheriff Burnett declined to do so. Then Mr Woodcock did appeal the matter to the county judge and county com missioner, tittlng as a commissioners court, and in that court the matter is pending. This Is what the Times said, and all this the Gazette admits.- : Albany Democrat: In one of the greatest field meets ever held in Oregon, Albany College defeated the Oregon Agricultural College at Cor vallis last Saturday afternoon, After almost five hours of bard work dur ing which speed, skill, nerve and en durance were tested to the utmost and 14 different events had each been closely .contested, Albany had scored 63 points against 58 for. OAC. The score was very close throughout the entire meet. The result was doubtful until the next to the last event when the Albany runners took all three places in the mile- run : and the safety mark was passed. The Gazette says 'Billy Kuotts Is entitled to some of .the credit for . the fact that Sheriff Burnett has been an economical officer. What a funny claim. The only reason why Sheriff Burnett was economical for the taxpayers is because be is competent, and even under the new tax law Is able to con duct the office without a deputy . In nearly all otter counties special dep uties were allowed on account of the new law. In Portland there were'38 Sheriff Burnett did not even . ask ; for one. Yet, while It admits that Sheriff Burnett is entitled to credit,, the. Gazette says Billy Knotts cught to have some too. Where; how; whv? r ".- Attention Why wear suits that do not fit?.
