Another week niUNt elupe before the people of Oregon will know 'definitely whether or not Governor Olcott ha the right to renin n a ycrotary of aluto at..! appoint hi ucc(ior to that office. The long-expucted supreme' court ducUlon which wa looked for today fulled to inuterlullxe. Failure of tho court to hand down tho declnlon gave riiio to tho belief that 'tho high tribunal mlhl be 1iopeleitly divided, but unauthorita tive Information received at tho upreme court building lend color to the belief that lx of the JurUt have agreed on tho opinion which, It I understood, ha been written by JuHilce John and which, rumor aa- avrt. will uphold the contention of Attorney General Drown that Gov ernor Olcott serve out the full un expired term of the lute Governor Wlthycombo. If tho supremo court opinion up hold Governor Olcott, It It practic ally certain thut he will name hi appolnteo a secretary of sluto Im mediately. Although tha governor hu given out no statement, It I known thut ho I anxious to appoint a secretary of state as soon a pos sible, and if tho opinion of tho court I received next week It probubly will reault In the governor announc ing hla appointment during the week. Bam A. Koier,. deputy secretary of tale, I believed to be the man whom Governor Olcott will name. Tha governor has frequently stated that ha considers Mr. Koxer tho best Informed man In the state so far as state business la-concerned. He ha been In ihe stale service for nearly 20 year and because of his thorough knowledge of tho affair of the office would be the logical man for the place. The important opinion we ready last week, but wa held up at the lust moment. Thero seems little doubt but that It will bo forthcoming next weok. Although ono dissenting opinion may bo looked for, It Is reasonablo to predict that the ma jority of the court will unlto in sus taining tho supreme court In the Chad wick decision, which was handed down during the early day of the atato's history, and which do creed thai tho secretary of atato be- (fcontlnued on I'ngo 4.)

BOARD FACING ODD SITUATION THRKK OF SCHOOL I1IRMTORS GO OCT OF OKFIfK IN JL'NK, HIT KTATK LAW ONLY PKK MiTS ELKCTIOX OF ONE. Seeking to straighten out the tangle which confronts the school board If it adhere to the letter of the state law, J. Alton Thompson, clerk of the Bend board of directors, bas written to the state superintend ent of schools for an opinion as to the proper method of providing for a complete board at the time of the annual school meetlrg, June 16. According to the law, the board of a first class district must have a membership of fire, and the same authority provides for the election of one member for a three-year term at the coming school meeting. How ever, there are three director who v)ill be going out of office, J. P. Keyea. who completes a three-year term, and Carl A. Johnson and R. V. Sawyer, elected in 1917, when the district passed Into the first class division, to serve for two year each. A possible 'solution may bo that the two-year members may continue to hold office in the time between June 16. 1919, and the school meet ing in the succeeding year, when the law allows for the election of more directors, Mr. Thompson believes.

EAST LAKE WILL BE MECCA OF ANGLERS Steelhead Have Grown to Enormous Size, and Brook Trout Will Be Bit Ins; In Week, Say Jacobeon. East lake la fairly swarming with fish and the road will be open with in a week's time, is the report of Forest Supervisor N. G. Jacobson, who returned last night from a trip to the lake with A. M. Pringle. Steelheads, which .were planted sev ed several years ago, have grown to such an enormous size that it is no longer possible to hold them, Fred Shintaffer, who lives at the lake, told Mr. Jacobson. The fish are weighing over 40 pounds apiece, and one ot them hooked recently by Mr. Shin taffer actually towed the angler's boat for some distance and finally tore loose' from the steel barb. The huge size ot the. steelheads is ex plained by the abundance ot vegeta tion in the lake, affording excellent feed. Eastern brook trout, however are plentiful and should be biting well within another week, Mr. Jacobson believes. In reaching the lake the car In which Mr. Pringle and the forest supervisor made the trip, was stop ped by the snow and the remaining six miles were made on foot.
