NOT GOOD, NOT HERE REVERE COFFEE A perfect amber color, A real boquet odor" and "The flavor you cannot forget " REVERE COFFEE Once Tried, Always Used Tho county court mot this morning at 9 o'clock and took up consideration of the petition for tho Wild Horso road. Tho petition was granted, and Alex Hudson, Dave Nelson and J. W. Klmbrcll nppolnted as vlowers, to re port at tho May term. March 19 was set as tho day when tho work of viowlng should be done. In tho afternoon the court took up tho consideration of tho county print ing graft as engineered by tho Trib une. Tho court called Otto Didlon. the operator who set the tax list, and M. Schrack, the foreman of tho East Oregonian office, as expert witnesses In determining the oxtent of tho pad ding used by the Trlbuno in printing tho list. Didlon testified that ho had been told by E. P. Dodd, tho editor of tho Tribune, to vary from the copy as furnished by tho sheriff, to spread his work out. Ho had done so for the first column or two, but that Dodd had then coma and told him that he was covering too much territory, and to follow more closely, but that ho would leavo It to his discretion In spreading it as much as possible. It was tho custom to set such printing In nonpareil typo, or what is called "6-poInt." Tho list as printed was put In 7-polnt typo, on an S-polnt body, being equal to leaded work. Mr. Schrack was asked to figure up the difference, nnd found that the work, if printed in the same form, In nonpareil type would have made tio lines less spaco than what was sub mitted to tho court. If It had been printed as it was In the copy, and in the legal type, It would have gone. Into soven columns of space, Instead of 11 columns, as the Tribune made It reach. It was also customary, in printing tnx lists to abbreviate the names of additions; to use "S" for south, "E" for east, Dlk for block, and "ad" for additions. This had not been done, and If It had. It would have been possible to havo printed the list In much less room than was used by the Tribune. After a number of other ques tions of a like nature by the court, the witnesses were oxcused, and t.ie court took up consideration of the amount necessary to cut out of the bill of $G1G presented by the Tribune. E. P. Dodd, the editor of tho Trlb une, filed today with the court a statement asking that the court ad vance him the sum of $100 which he claims as damages caused by the non-observance of tho contract enter ed into with the Tribune for the county printing. The court had entered into a con tract with tho Trlbuno people, agree ing to pay a stated price for printing to be done In tho years 1902-3-4, and in many cases had cut the bills pre sented by the paper. The plaintiff alleges that ho has been deprived of his profits by this action in tho sum of $100, which sum he seeks to ro cover. James A. Feo Is attorney for tho plaintiff. Printing Laid Over. Lato tills afternoon tho county court postponed tho county printing matter until tho next meeting of tho court, on April 9. nnd slnco that time being tho direc tor of the affairs of tho family. As yet no funeral arrangements havo boon made. EAGLES TO INITIATE. Class of Nearly One Hundred Will Don the Eagles' Feathers Tonight.
