EIGHT MONTHS' WORK DOME
J. W. Ferguson Has Mad Eibaiw

Multnomah County has a surplus of
. -mmim nvprT liabilities amounting to 11,-
5 2iJ.891.88, aocordlna; to the final report
I of John W. Ferguson, the expert ac
countant employed by County Judge
Webster and Commissioners .isrniner
and Barnes to prepare a statement of
the condition of all county oKices. Mr.
Feriruson filed his report with the
Commissioners about 2:30 o'clock yes
terday afternoon. Judge Webster being
Th axnert nlaoes the county's assets
St ll.31T.136.ai. and Its liabilities at
I113.244.7S.
Mr. Feroruson says he found no as
set and liability account kept at the
Courthouse, and considers this as ira
portant as the account showing re
ceplts and disbursements. A complete
ritatn of cost accounting; is recom-
Kmended. At present the county's books
do not show the amount or real estate
It owns, says Mr. Ferguson. The ex
pert reports their valuation, however,
upon lnlormatlon turnlshed by County
Assessor Slgler. He believes the
county's roads should be regarded as
Lan asset.
Kelly Butte Receipts Omitted.
Attention Is called to the fact that the
; Kelly Butte account shows jso.oco x-
pended. but nothing received, although
I 64.SS7 cubic yards of rock have been
; crushed in the last seven years, the time
i covered by the report. At the estimated
; price of $1.75 a yard this would be worth
A comity porohaelng asent Is another
recommendation of Mr. Ferguson. This
person should devote his whole time to
ascertaining needed supplies, eliminating
' tmneeessary purchases, and purchasing
(the county supply through public adver
tising In the largest feasible quantities.
(The report also recommends a voucher
. system, whereby every bill will go
' through a systematic course from receipt
) to payment, the voucher on return to
j serve as a receipt, giving a complete bls-
Itory of the transaction, and holding every
Individual who takes part in It respons
ible. Sheriff Increases Receipts.
According to yesterday's report. Sheriff'
Stevens' office has made an excellent
i showing since he assumed charge. In the
' last seven years the receipts have In
terested from CTTKB to K 916. IS. the total
being ta6.i84.7i. The large volume of busl
J ness transacted Is further evidenced by
the disbursements of Sheriff Stevens' of-
flee, which were 330.771-89 last year, and
' 313.636.60 in 1902. The total disbursements
have been auZ&S&M.
On the other hand, the' County Poor-
farm and Hillside Farm receipts have
i dwindled from 3X96.07 In 1902 to 3017.75
;. last year. The expenditures of the Hlll
', side Farm last year, which Included those
:. of the County Hospital, were 330,306.29.
In 1914 these two Institutions expended
; $l6.i.e8. The reason for the falling off
In receipts of the farm Is. apparently,
i that In 1901 the county raised much of
J Its own produce on the farm, a part of
' which It consumed and a part sold. A
!' new farm has now been purchased, how
ever. The total receipts in the last
seven years from the County Poor-farm.
County Hospital and Hillside Farm are
, 34297.89, ana the disbursements, 3166,
' 831.67.
i The assessed valuation of all Multnc
, mah County property In 1901 was but
348.166.632. while it was J236.Lf7.737 In 1906,
nearly five times as much.
Clerk's Receipts Largest.
Of the various county offices County
Clerk Fields' office shows the largest re
ceipts, these being 3353.2S1.05 In the last
seven years. In the same time the ex
penditures have been 32O8.708.77.
The report shows by a comparative re
port for six months In 1908 and early
In and six months this year, that
,tbe cost of feeding city prisoners and
guards at Kelly Butte was 34633.02 In the
six months ending August 1, last, during
which time Sheriff Stevens furnished the
; food, and 328U9.74 when the county fed
' the prisoners. This Is accounted for by
J the fact that the meals served I by the
: Sheriff are better than those furnished
' by the County Court, the September
t rand Jury making especial mention of
J this fact In Its final report.
The total receipts and disbursements
t of various county offices and enter
j prises for the last seven years are re
ported as follows:

W. T. Mende Gets Decision In Salt
Against John Dltcliburn.
W. T. Mende'a lawsuit against John
rxtchburn. In which he demanded 32000
? for Injuries and humiliation resulting
from a fist fight at Front and Morrison
streets last May, was decided in Mende's
favor yesterday morning by Circuit Judge
Gantenbeln. But he did not allow Mende
32000 damages. On the contrary he will
receive only 326, 326 for his suffering
and 31 for his doctor's bilL Regarding
his' humiliation. Judge Gantenbeln said
he did not think a man who could not
stand up even by holding to a telephone
post was entitled to damages on this
ground. Testimony had been offered to
the effect that Mende was once arrested
for drunkenness, and twirled around the
post to which he clung for sapport. In
the fracas with Ditchburn, . Mende re
ceived several blows on the nose and
eye.

Receiver Will Be Appointed to
Straighten Out Tangle of Per
fectly Solvent' Company.
OLTMPIA,' Wash., Oct 4 (Special.)
Washington's Supreme Court today, ac
cording; to Its own decision, established
a rule absolutely new in Jurisprudence
when it decided that a receiver should
be appointed at the Instance of a stock
holder for a perfectly solvent, prosperous
corporation whose offices are at Fort
land. This was at tho suit of IV F. Booths,
against R. J. Linden, of Portland, and
the Summit Coal Mlnlfig Company.
Boothe and Linden each own 250 shares
of the 600 shares of capital stock of the
mining company, which is operating a
mine In Kittitas County.
The court finds that after a bitter
quarrel between the two men Linden took
full possession of the property, voted
himself $400 a month salary and refuses
to permit Boothe any voice In the man
agement or sight of the books.
The court in its decision refers to the
two dummy trustees, who are said to
be subservient to Linden, and declares
that the action of Linden and these two
In voting Linden a salary of J400 a
month was arbitrary and illegal.
Boothe sued for an accounting and
asked a receivership. He lost In the
lower court. The Supreme Court directs
the lower court to appoint a temporary
receiver for a time to see If the two
owners cannot get together. In the event
they cannot agree, the receiver Is to be
made permanent. Linden is required to
pay back all salary In excess of $135 per
month, and the receipts of the company
over and above cost of operation, with
no deduction for depreciation, is to be
divided between the two owners.
