A large delegation from the South
side met with the Court oa Monday
ana luesaay or this week; the matter
to be considered being the petition
for all the necessary bridges in Lin
coln Co. It was set aside as the
prosecuting attorney stated that it
was not worded In a legal manner.
He claimed that all petitions for
bridges mut come under the title
"Road Petitions." The Court gavt
another day ln which to secure sjgn-
ers ror a new petition. By makine
strenuous efforts a commlttAR nf fmir
secured the necessirv Biimnturoo
within twenty four hours. As . the
Trose-uHng attorney hlmRnlf drow
vi-lthis petition it will undoubtedly meet
nil requirements. On the ballot Itwlll
probably be called "Rnnrllno' nt T in.
; coin County for 140,000 for rermanent
iRoadr." Wlhen you read that, vote
"YES" as 'hat means a brldse across
i the Yaqulna at Toledo. When you
read on -the ballot "Bonding of Lin
coin county for $63,000," vote YES
to that also, as that means bridges
across the Sllett. The Court, will look
after the smaller; bridges. ' It was
placed on record, we understand that
the money so raised can be used, for
no other, purpose than the building
of these bridges.

MILLER WINS BOUT
FROM PAUL AMORT
lT nnl Ci I , tA r nrnA ftltn A.nt
of three wrestling bouts, the first of
which was won by Miller on July 4th,
1921, at Newport, the second was won
by Amort at the County Fair, Septem
ber 10th, 1921, and the final bout won
by Miller, . '
The first fall was won by Miller ln
d0 minutes and 10 seconds, the Becond
fall in 10 minutes and 31 seconds.
;Mill:er weighed, 157 pounds and
Amort 160 pounds, both stripped.
Fred Chamberlain acted as time
keeper and W. K. Patterson as referee.
The winning of this match places
Miller In a position just three removed
from the middle weight championship
of the world, that Is, he will have to
wrestle and defeat three men before
challenging the now middle weight
champion.
After tho match Miller challenged
any man In the world ln the 158 pound
class, offering to post a side bet of
'iOOM. winner to take all, or on a
10-2D Dasis.
The preliminary was between Fran
cis Powers and Mblvln Miller, the son
of Charles Miller. Molvin won the
first fall in 40 seconds and the second
fall rn 1 minute and 10 seconds. The
boys seemed to pleaoe the crowd very
mucn and both showed some science,
especially young Miller.
(On the 22nd Miller will wrestle the
representative of Ted Thye, of Port
land, If he defea's him, It is very
probable that he will be challenged
by Thye himself or by someone who
will be named by him. But Miller
wants it distinctly understood that ha
will accept no challenges of any kind
until after the match is over on the
zznd. And should he be the victor
preference will be given to those be
tween him and the championship.
