Walter Fierce suggested a "Co names, lumbia district" which would relieve him of the task of rep- re ington the situation is vastly dif ferent. California's finances are in such bad ahape that no one can foretell what the outcome will be, The state deficit runs into mil Uons, and yearly grows worse la- stead of better. Washington, o m p a r a tlvely speaaing. is in almost as had shape. Washington's debt does not approach the California total, but tne situation there stul ia serious. And. to make matters worse.

He enjoys representing the most popu lous district In the nation, but at election time it involves an etra burden. Now he is certain in any event to lose some EDition of his constituency; but the eagerness of certain po-tically-ambitious sections for inclusion in the new district is a; compliment to Mr. Mott's political strength and effectiveness. Judge McMahan, whose state of health was a matter of concern during the summer, is now fully recovered and on the job. This was proven the past week by his open letter attacking legislative log-rolling and his blistering rejoinder to a Portland lawyer's affidavit of prejudiced The enforced rest was evidently good for his liver, judging by the bile emitted in .that court order. Local politicor may. now watch their step more closely. The judge Is back, in fine form; and the winter promises to be interesting, what with the leg islature, a new district attorney, a new justice of the peace, a f new county Judge and commissioner. Politics hereabouts somehow loses its rest when Judge "Mac" is 6n the sick list. Acsociation Told t PORTLAND.

"I knew so Uttle about the murder and It was vital for me to settle my own problem " - "You're put us to considerable trouble and expense, young man,' growled the inspector. "And made the case against you a lot blacker than it was." Come, inspector,' said Mr riem.ng nianaiy, ' you won t go so far as to say that there's ease against him? Isn't that put ting It rather strongly? "Well, he was seen approach ing the Osborne house in a sua plclous manner half an hour be fore the murder was discovered carrying In his hand the silk scarf with which the murder was committed. If those facts don't constitute a pretty stiff case against him," grunted Burrows "I'll eat my shoes, nails and all." "Yes. I did go to the house about three that afternoon," Ted admitted, "but to say that my manner was suspicious is silly I may have beea a Uttle nervous You see, I waa going to ask Mr, Osborne for permission to marry his daughter: and at a time like that a fellow naturally feels 1 "Quite," agreed Sheriff Black, "but if you went to see Mr. Os borne I should have thought your obvious course would be to ring the front doorbell and ask for him." "But I knew I'd probably find him In the garden." "And did you?" "No, he wasn't there "So you entered the house through the living room win dows," murmured Inspector Bur rows casually a little too cas nally. Ted stared. "You're quite wrong. I didn't enter the house at all. I meant to go in that way; In fact, I was on the point of doing so, when I noticed the old lady altting there and changed my mind. "What about the scarf?" Bur rows demanded fiercely. "You were carrying it wnen you ap proached the honse; half an hour later It was knotted tightly about the old ladya neck." The young man turned pale. "I don't know how it got there. Dorothy came over to my-house to play tennis shorUy after lunch but ahe went home in a short while, with a headache. She left the scarf on a seat beside the court and. when I went over to see her father, I took it with me with the Intention of returning it" "What did you do with It?" "When I turned away from the 11 ring room windows. I decided to go home and come back to see Mr. Osborne later. Aa I walk ed past the side ot the house, I noticed that a window which opens into tne nail waa ajar. I put my hand through and tossed the scarf onto a chair." There was soma further Ques tioning, after which the Flem ings were permitted to depart, but Ted was cautioned that he must not attempt to leave the neighborhood again without per mission from the police. ' When father and son had gone. Sheriff Black looked at Burrows with raised eyebrows. "Well?" I think he's lying, sheriff. Trying to protect his prospective father-in-law. There was more on ais miao tne week he was away than the problem of defying his parents, or he d have reached a decision sooner. I reslly think he met Setphea Osborne la the gar dea and gave him the scarf to return to Dorothy. . . .

For some reason the British tried to Keep secret the death of Lord Lothian, the best ambassador they have had here In modern times.
