Portland has more water than It ran
use for years to come, and we may be
sble to get Bull Run water. Portland
In a few years will annex Milwaukle

one. leaving three remaining to tha de

tant witness for the state probably
will he George X. Lockwood. the Mc
Namara Juror said to have been bribed,
there is little" knowledge as to the other
witnesses.

aR to using John II. Harrington, the
Chicago lawyer, formerly associated
