The govern ment Is counting on filling In at leaHt four days with the presentation of Its evidence, while the defense says It will take some little time to close up their Hide of the presentation. It will be hard work in view of the cumbersome and tedious nature of the evidence to "get the case to the Jury within the week. The proceedings this morning were uninteresting and routine, being enliv ened onlv once when "Breere" Gibson, one of the Jurors accepted, said that he had never mingled In politics except one time when he had been nominated .. for Justice of the peace and had gone out. and elect-ioneered against himself. Gibson said that in spite of his efforts they came near electing him. Samuel Osborne of Albina was one of the men called. He Is a native of Eng- . land and has lived In Oregon since 1878. All of that time he has considered him self a citlxen until today, when he dis covered that he had only taken out his declaration of Intention.

"Since Nottingham's case came up we are besieged every day wltn applica tions to erect and repair wooden build ings within the fire limits and all of them are turned down.

"It Is true that Nottingham violated the building laws and erected a frame cunning out he did not do It with a permit from ths office.

With three- fourths of last year's wine output of the state still undistributed this year, vineyardists of California are taking steps today to organize a growers' as sociation and start a campaign of edu cation to coutneract the injury done mem rv me prohibition wave which has swept the country. Colonel Theodore (Her of Oakland, whv is interested In the movement, said today that an effort would be made to make light wine the national bever age. He declared that If it were adopt ed by the whole country there would be little drunkenness and the prohibition agitation would cease." Last years wine output was 50.000.- 000 gallons, and of this amount less than one-fourth has been distributed. This, says Gier. has resulted In tying up Jlft.000,000 which ordinarily goes Into the hands of California farmers and Is causing a shortage of cash among the vineyardists. if s :' -.:.isf J I j r v if (SpecUl Dlptct to Tn Journal.)

He stated that he would go to his homestead, a few miles north of this city, and make that his home In the future.

Colorado. The suggestion was made tha ranch work would coma a little hard to him. as he has not been used to It, to which he replied that he would be all right if he did not spend too much time In the sun for awhile. He has been In the shade so long that ths sun wilts him easily. Steve stated his family was still In Colorado but In all probability they will soon loin him nnd all become resi dents of this county.

TWO POINTS HOTTER THAN YESTERDAY At the district conference of the Brethren church, meeting in the First Brethren church, much of this morn ing's session was given to a discussion of educational matters. A petition from the Nez Perces church, asking leave to establish a Brethren's Bible Normal school and another petition from the , ln(r ttnrl evening, thus doing away with rowcii s vauey cnurcn asking that the tne lneVltable trouble that came about articles be revised to omit he word from everyone watering his lawn at the uuiiiiai i,i ,'iuri iiiai t uiuie di uuui might more quickly be established, aroused considerable discussion. Brother Sechrist urged the separation of secu lar and spiritual Interests Jn the schools to be established by the Brethren, as he contended that they could not com pete In secular training with the public schools which were able to hire the best men and to pay large salaries. He thought, however, that a Bible school should be established and hoped that this would grow Into a Normal which would give training to Bible teachers, and so promote the spiritual Interests of the church. After some further dis cussion it was voted to place the matter In the hands of a committee which would revise the petition and present it later in Uie day. A number of delegates nave come in. a representation from Myrtle Point arriving today. The Old People and Orphan's Home committee was put on a working basis and $2,000 was pledged for mission work. A paper sent from the elders' meet ing regarding the situation at Weston, Or., In regard to the Van Dyke case which was up for hearing last year, was respectfully returned to the elders, the district conference voting that it has no authority In the case, and as the papers were unaccompanied by Instruc tions from the elders, they could not be considered.
