Prom the dujf Hate color Into which
the old postofflce building has fsded

of the ' stone color of the old

granite steps at the Morrison street en
trance, the repainting of all the window
woodwork and I the Installing- of new
doors, the building will hare almost the

One of the -cherished projects of the

pervisor of road district No. 1. is to con
struct a perfectly macadamised road
way from the Lewis and Clark expoel
tloo grounds to Linnton, on the present
line of the St Helens road. Ths length
of the proposed road la about five miles,
beginning st a .point three miles irom
the courthouse and ending at unnton.

Supervisor Chapman and H. W. can.

of road Inquiry, maintained by the de
partment of agriculture.
"Alter conrernng wun air. taprieia,
said Supervisor Chapman, "I find .that
if we follow the plans submitted by the
federal good-roads department we will
give the people highways that are per
manent and that will entail less expense

'Proper construction or country roads
la economical. The Initial cost Is slight

the expense of maintenance la so much

of economy to adopt the newer meth
ods." . .. - "

VERDICT IS RIGHTEOUS
States Attorney Maintains Not
" ; Necessary to Produce or
Rnd Body.31
(Special Dispatch ts The JaaraaL)
Salem, Or., March' IS. The case q
Norman 'Williams was argued before the
supreme court , at it . . o'clock today.
Judge McGinn appeared for Williams
and District Attorney Menefee of - Tbe
Dalles, Deputy District "Attorney Fred
Wilson and Attorney-Oeneral Crawford
tor the state.
Judge McGinn, aa attorney for the
appellant, confined himself to the one
point of "corpus delicti' and argued that
"corpus delicti,'' or tbe fact tbat
crime had been committee, bad not been
established.
He said that "there was aa entire ab
sence of evidence to show that .Alma
Nesbltt was dead, and that she came to
ber death through criminal agency,
The evldenca Introduced by the-state
upon these, the most Important parts of
the state a case, waa connned to mood
stains on sacks alleged to bave been
found by a brother of the alleged de
ceased woman in a hole on tbe prem
Ises formerly tbe home of the appellant.
He maintained lhat there was "no thins-
to show thst tbe women are dead.
nor that they came to their death by a
criminal agency.
Nearly bis whole argument waa taken
from a paper read by Bprogie Dei ore tne
annual states attorneys' convention In
Illinois In July, 104. In' which numer
ous cases were cited, showing the-great
wrongs that have been committed in the
paat by executions on conviction xrom
circumstantial evidence.
Attorneys for tbs state malntajoed
"that In order to prove corpus delicti
tl la tint naresrv to prodUCS Or find
the dead body; thame"lstiuiuuy ef the
doctors leave no questioa but tbat the
hair and blood were human; that evi
dence has been' produced Sufficient to
remove all reasonable doubt.
They riled many of Ore same eases In
support of their argument that Mo-
Glnn did In support of his, and sub
mitted "that if there ever was a verdict
rlarhteous and deserved It was this -one.
and If there "ever wss a verdict sus
tained and supported by evidence. It wag
