NOT ENOUGH PRECINCTS Should Be 1 10 Instead of 111, Says Commissioner Light ner. It was the expressed opinion of County Commissioner Ktghtner yesterday that there should be in Multnomah County about 140 precinets instead of 114, as is now the case. The law provides that the precincts shall be laid out by the Com missioners and that there shall be but 300 voters in each precinct. Before the registration books were opened this year 24 new precincts were added to the 90 which had previously existed, and it was thought that these would fill the require ments of the law. but so rapid has been the growth of the city wihin the last two years that the Commissioners failed to estimate the population correctly. Even in the vicinity in which Mr. Light Tier lives, the Mount Scott district, he did not correctly size up the population, for precinct st registered 516 voters. Th live precincts in that district show an average of 341. The registrations were as follows: Precinct 94. 275; precinct J5, 326: precinct 96. 516; precinct 97. 3S1, and precinct 9S. 20S. making a total of 1706. The precinct lines cannot now be changed for two years, at which time It wjllhe necessary to add a large number more. Addition to Milvraukie School.

An outside hall is used for the overriow, but this is not sufficient. j V t cy Dr. P. L. Austin, manager of the Chicago and the Union Dental Parlorsi desires to an nounce to the public that he has been arrested again for practising dentistry without a license. Two other cases have been appealed to the Circuit Court and now pending. I applied, to the Dental Board for a temporary permit and was refused., This is all brought about by my advertising and placing on record what I can do, and do do. In a recent issue of thi3 paper I offered $1000 to any dentist, barring none, who would compete with me in painless operation of the mouth. There has not been one response. All I ask is to have a hearing, to vindicate myself, so as to convince the public that I am in the right. I further wish to say that I am here to stay, and all those having dental work done at either office will be protect ed by a written guarantee. Sutfi is not given by any other dentists. I have followed the practice of dentistry for 17 years without a misfortune, and hope to follow it the balance of my life. All my staff are graduate dentists, having 10 to 20 years' experience. CHICAGO DENTAL OFFICE RALEIGH BUILDING 323Va Washington Street, Corner of Sixth Street JUDGE IS BLAMED Webster Accused of Barring Out Objections. IN ESTATE OF H. A. SMITH B. F. Smith Suo lo Compel F.xcou tor .lotips nnl KIoroI to Aivounl for $1A10 nil it Iff 10 Acres of Iiind. Aooorjlnn lo n complaint fllcd In tli Circuit Court yesterday. County Judite Wetwtrr refuse to henr the. objei;tlon to the flnnl yettlemcnt of tlio estate of H. A. Smith, thereby violating: the law. It Is alleiteif that he fulled to mnke the executors account for J1H40 and 110 acrea of land. N. Jonea nnd A. V. Fleirel are made the defondnnta In the suit, which was tiled by B. F. Smith through his attorney, H. H. Riddell. The death of H. A. Smith occurred In May. 1502, when ho Jeft to his heirs a third interest In aires of land, he- sides other property. The land was rep resented by a certificate of sale from the State L.and Foard. The other two-thlrda of this land was held hy W. N. Jones and V. P Mnys. The County Court ap pointed Jones and Flecl executors of the estate. It is alleced that in November. 1502. the executors sold '."O acres of this land to one Riddle for but In reporting It only accounted for JTW'A There were S3.-.3 acres, it Is asserted, hut the executors ac counted to the court for hut 6W The Vemainlng- JK10 acre are ald to be worth Further than this, it Is said that a certificate was held hy the estate for 10.Cn acres of school land, that Jones and Flesrel sold this for $17,264. and then turned over J10.231 of the money to PI P. Carnack. It Is said Carnack never presented a claim auainst the estate, and that this payment was therefore unlaw ful. In June. 1905. after the final account was filed. Attorney Riddell, it Is averred, filed objections with the County, Court, but. continues the complaint. Judge Webster settled the estate without giving tha objections a hearing, and refused to re open it. HIk attention is said to have been called to the matter a number of times. Smith seeks to recover, through this suit, J1R.S03 from Jones and Flegel. DEPOSITORS GIVE VP CLAIMS Thirty Make Xo Application lor Funds of Commonwealth. Thh-ty claims ai!nst the Common wealth Trust Company, amonuttrTg to $5.t2, will be excluded, as March 16 was the last day for the filing of claims. It is believed that a dividend will be paid to legitimate creditors within two or three months. Of the assets of the Common wealth Company. m.63 is in the Oregon Trust and Savings Bank.' the receiver of the latter bank having acknowledged the genuineness of the claim. A. C. Bentley. assistance of the Comonwealth Company, has made a statement for the benefit of the creditors, which is as follows: "The total amount of the claims as sub mitted foot up to $31,017.34. - I find that $15,0no of this is a note which is indorsed by the Commonwealth Trust Company. The holder of this note is endeavoring to hold the Commonwealth Trust Compani on this indorsement. After going into the matter carefully. I am of the opinion that the holder of the note has sufficient se curity outside of the Commonwealth Trust Company, so that by taking time the Commonwealth Trust Company will not have to pay this, or any part of it. This, of course, will reduce the liabilities $15, 000. It will probably take some little time THE LARGEST DENTAL ESTABLISHMENT IN THE 19 OFFICES IN THE ASTORIA OFFICE ELEVENTH and perhaps an action In the court to de termine, this. "There Is also sn additional clntm of $Mi of a slmllsr Indorsement, the cir cumstances being similar. This makes Ultimo taken away from the total amount of claims, leaving $h1.077..14. "The Commonwealth Trust Company has cash on hand, tle.l up In tha Oregon Havings Bank of $4!00.sa." Among the assets of the Commonwealth Company are notes accompanied by mort gages ami mining aticks. These mining properties were in the hands of the J. C. Ie Company. The ofllco fixtures have not yet been sold. Of lis claims, depositors put in but i. ' Sam Waftler hnd the largest amount, $2019 having been deposited as a savings ac count. Pr. A. R. Knstman tiled a claim for llii.ono, which was on a loan that he made to ttie J. C. Ice Company, and which was Indorsed by the directors. R. W. Bryan made a similar claim for WW), but the director are said not to have indorsed it. DnniBKe. Stilt on Trial.

The plalnltff had alleged that she had been struck by Mr. Ralston and shoved against a barb-wire fence. Sho repeated thla statement In her testimony yesurdav. Mr. Rlston took the stand In his own behalf and testified that he had received the consent of Tyler Woodward, the owner of the properly, to run a harh-wlre fence around It. and that while doing so Mrs. I"ornstfe had rushed excitedly out of tho house and made a protest. Mr. Ralston denied that he had struck Mrs. Dornslfe or used any violence whatever against her. In Mils statement Mr. Ralston was corroborated by other witnesses who were present. It also de veloped from the testimony of several witnesses that Mrs. Dornslfe was subject to attacks of .epilepsy and was of an ex citable temperament. Enormous Damajrft Stilt .Submitted. The suit of Attorney A. C. Kmmons against Thomas Owens and T. J. Tobln was submitted to Judge Gantenheln yes terday, after he had heard the last of the testimony.
