One of the first cases to come up
in circuit court, Monday, waa that
of the P. R. & N. Co., vs. Jaoob

right of way. In order that the
jury might better understand the
matter, Judge McBride sent that
body up to Buxton, on the after
noon train, to view Jaoobeon's
premises, through whioh the right
of way is desired.
While attempting to board the
moving 4 o'clock train, on Fourth

of another. We believe the voters

competent men, all republicans,

way matters are settled, and the
weather will permit. He thinks
Washington one of the best coun

of view, and predicts a rosy future
for Hilleboro in particular, and
other towns in general, along the
line of the Oregon Electric.
