fourth class postoffice at all, which is the only kind we could Mkk o
get at present. We have rural free delivery every day from hciiiki viiicai uiuwuo,
Salem. We would not have this from our own postoffice.
"The original petition for es
tablishing a postoffice was signed
by only 24 applicants. A post-
office would not be necessary, it
seems, to give mailing franchise
for the newspaper that was to be
established here. But we are in
formed that we could not get ru

the patrons of the two routes that
pass through here are protesting
against, a change from the serv

SAN FRANCISCO, March 20.
Attempts of the prosecution to
remove Juror Edward W. Brown
on the ground of bias and preju
dice, despite the fact that he had
already been accepted and sworn,
featured the session today in the
third trial of Roscoe C. (Fatty)
Arbuckle on a manslaughter
charge.
A recess was called on two oc
casions during the da on account
of the Brown matter, the first to
allow the defense to prepare an
argument in the juror's support
and the second to allow the court
to make an independent invt-stiga
lion at the conclusion of the de
fense and answering arguments
Assistant District Attorney Leo
Friedman at the opening session
announced that the prosecution
wished to exercise its last pereui
lory cnaiienge on Brown. A sup
porting affidavit stated that the
Juror, a grocer, had been twice
prosecuted for alleged violations
of the state pure food laws and
that he held a prejudice therefore
against District Attorney Brady,
the prosecuting officer. The de
fense attorney, Gavin McNab, ans
wered that as the district attorney
was . cognizant to all of the facts
he should have challenged Brown
before he was finally sworn and
that it would be a violation of the
law to excuse the juror at this
time.
Asked -by the, court if he held
the opinion that a juror could not
be excused after being finally
sworn, "even if it developed that
he was the defendant's brother,"
McNab replied that the statute
would positively prevent the dis
, missal of such Juror. The court
was under the opinion that his de
cision, which Is expected tomor
row morning, will be somewhat of
a precedent.
The Brown development halted
the selection of a second alternate
Juror and the starting of testi
mony taking. In the expectation
of both sides this alternate would
have been selected early In the
session and one or more witnesses
would have been hard before the
session concluded had not the

Council Without Authority
"The city council has no au

of a postoffice or in changing the

only try to get the people to
