Object To Material - -
Some of the residents in the vicin

contributing loadj of garbage (con
sisting of old cans, defunct tin roof
and stove pipes, rubbish from yards,
woodsheds, and so forth), towards the
completion of the fill in the school
yard. While the people' most inter
ested in the neat appearance of the
school premises would appreciate hav
ing the yawning gulf raised to the
level of the yard they object decidedly
to the kind of material being donated
at the present time. '
County Court
At the meeting of the county court
yesterday a bill put in by Justice
Brallier of Seaside was disallowed.
At election time Justice Brallier
swore in a number of voters and for
ifiat sen-ice put in a small bill to the
county, - The court found that inas
iruch as it was the duty of the judges
to swear in such voters there was no
reason why the bill of Justice Brail
ier should be paid and accordingly
disallowed it. The court entered in
to a contract with George P. Clark,
the expert accountant, to audit the
county books again for the year 1909.
The work is to be done twice and at
a total cost of not to exceed $300.
The question of the agitation of tak
ing from the sheriffs the collection
of county taxes was also considered
by the court, and it arrived at the
conclusion that if the legislature does
make any change in the present law
that it should provide for the collec
tion by the county treasurer, and es
pecially not by the assessor. The
matter is now being considered by
seme of the Oregon legislators, and
the court will send a copy of its opin
ion to each of the Clatsop delegation.
