Shown Proper Intent.

Trom Multnomah Ieaae of aa
Apartment Souse Involved.
Salem. Or., Jan; 4. The supreme

court of Tillamook county to properly
itemize in the annual budget the mat
ters coming under the heads of "road
purposes-," "surveyor's office" and

was brought by S. V. Anderson.
The supreme court finds, in an opin
ion written by Justice' Bean, that it
appeara the county court made a faith
ful, painstaking effort to comply with
the requirements of the statute. The
court finds that the law does not re
quire an estimate for each highway.
each street and each bridge, as claimed
by the plaintiff.
X.aw Compiled With.
As a whole, the court finds that
there was a substantial compliance
with the law and it points out that
no suggestion is alleged to have been
made to the county court for a more
specific estimate.
"In the matter under consideration,
the estimates prepared for publication
Indicate that the county court was
willing to fully comply with the law,
and there appears to be no refusal to
adhere to any reasonable 'demand. If
one had been made," says the court.
"The writ will only issue In cases of
necessity to prevent injustice or great
injury."
One Other Decision Today.
One other decision was handed down
today. In the case of Llllle T. Webb
