R O Y & When it comes to GROCERIES QUEENSWARE Judgment was rendered against for mer secretary of state Dunbar Friday at Salem, in the action brought against him by the state to recover fees alleged to have l>een illegally collected by him during his eight years’ term of office. In his trial Dunbar was shown to have collected more than $100,000. The fact that Dunbar burned his pri vate account books, which showed the amounts he collected in fees, was brought against the defendant in his trial. It was also shown that besides collecting fees from individuals and cor porations for his services, the for mer secretary of state charged the state $4 each for issuing requisitions. The suit was brought by a Polk county far mer, J. K. Sears, upon relation of Dis trict Attorney McNary of this city, who prosecutei 1 the case for the recovery of the fees taken by Dunbar while serving as secretary of state. It was tried before Judge < ialloway and stubbornly contest ed by able counsel on both sides. The importance of the suit grows out of the fuct that a verdict against the defendant means that large sums will have to he paid hack into the state treasury by Dunbar and other state offi cials. if the supreme court upholds Gal loway, as the constitution clearly forbids taking fees in excess of stated salary fixed for each state official. i % E.

In an exchange from one of the valley towns now intending to pave a number of their business streets this spring and slimmer, we gather that the cost to property owners, as contracted by the Warren Construction company, who are doing the work in Salem, A l bany, Eugene and Hosehurg, does not exceed $2.50 a square yard. This is the entire cost of the work when done by these people, and includes everything.
