In the legal battle waged between the state of Oregon and the Portland Oerfernl Klectrlc company, the first encounter was won by the company, says the Oregon Pally Journal. The state is suing for 10 per cent of the net ci.rnhigs of the locks at Oregon Cltv, now owned by the company, from 1S74 to 1904, claiming this money is due on account of a con tract made with the company that built the locks at the time when the state auin-oprlated $200,000 to aid In this wom. Frederick V. Holtnan, attorney for the company, filed a demurrer to a part of the complaint, alleging that owing to the statute of limitations no motleys could be sued for that were alleged to have been collected before 1S97. Presiding Judge Arthur I.. Frazer this morning sustained the de murrer. In arguing the demurrer, attorneys for the state contended the statute of limitations did not run against the commoawcalth. that the giving of the subsidy to the company gave the state an interest In the water improvement, that this interest in the locks could also be claimed In that they were built on a portion of the state's prop erty and. tfiat the company was acting as an igent for the state. Judf. ? Prayer held that under a law passed in 1103 the statute of limita tions could not run against the state heieafter nor six years prior to the passing of the hill. This decision wipes out a large portion of the de mand made by the state. The action was begun several weeks ago by Attorney Cleneral A. M. Craw ford and District Attorney John Man ninir. The locks at Oregon City were built by the Willamette Falls Canal Loci's company, whose interests have since beei absorbed by the Portland Otenernl Plectric company The for mer company asl.ed aid from th--state. Tills was at last granted upon the condition that the state was to re fer, e 111 per cent of the net earnings 01' the company. October 21. ls'.'ii. the legislature passed a bill granting $21111 lion to aid the proposed Improve ment. II is alleged that the company has failed to make any payments. In the abs'-nce of the attorney gen eral. Attorney Holman asked that the j state be allowed 11 days pi which to j move further in the case. This was "VOX YOXSOX" Tlll'USDAY.

Circulation has become a definite thing, a definite force a matter of facts and figures. Circulation either docs cover Its field or It does not. The Fast Oregonian goes Into most of the Pendleton homes besides hav ing a clrcitlatlon'throughout the coun try of which we are very proud. Ow ing to the fact that the semi-weekly goes to practically every Intelligent farmer within a radius of E0 miles and that those more distant take the Weekly Last Oregonian. this paper covers the field far more thoroughly thin any other newspaper. Just as an example of why the East Oregon ian Is taken in preference to other papers, especially morning papers, the case of Helix can be cited. We have 69 subscribers in Helix for the Fast Oregonian, 20 of which are for the Dally and the rest for the Semi Weekly. This Is several times as many us any other paper. The train leaves Pendleton for Helix at 5 p. in putting t.he Pally East Oregonian In Helix at 6 o'clock, or two hours after it is issued. Wlien the morning pa pers arrive there their news Is an cient history, hence the insignificant uumbcr of person who take the morning paper. The same is true of Adams, Athena, Weston, Milton and Frecwater. The same Is true here In Pendleton, as the paper In the morn ing must of necessity repent what has already teen told the evening before 1 nth" Fast Oregonian, which being printed at the close of the day, gives the news the day It happens. Circulation brings results to the nd vertlser when it Is home circulation, paid circulation and If the paper is read for Its news value. The East Oregonian Is nil this ami the Intelligent advertiser knows it.
