VICTOR IN APPEAL
(Continued from First page.)
the land wa3 more valuable for agri
cultural purposes than for timber and
stone. The taking of testimony con
sumed six day3.
Register Bramwell rendered a de
cision in - favor of the timber and
atone claimant and held the case for
dismissal. The case was appealed
and Register Bramwell's decision was
ilflrmed. - Attorney O. M. Corklns
of Enterprise appeared for Metzler
and J. T. Williamson for O'Brien.
The case was one of the biggest con
tests heard in the local office for
some time. The plaintiff has one
more appeal to the secretary of the
uterior if he chooses to avail himself
of it. If the appeal is not taken the
mportaut decision written by Regis
ter Bramwell and sustained by the
ommisioner general will stand as a
precedent in the decision of the re
maining cases.

HIGH SCHOOL FACULTY
STOPS FLAG BATTLE
The freshman-senior flag battle
at the high school has been ended
by a faculty stop-order. The fresh
men say the order showed partial
ity because their flag was- flying at
the coveted point and the seniors
could not get up on the roof and
take it down. The especially think
they were unfairly dealt with because
they were compelled under fear of
suspension to replace the ladder and
-ake down their own flag.
The faculty say they were not par
lal as they had before ordered the
senior's flag down, and furthermore
the contest had gone too far, locks
being taken off doors, and the attic
ladder, used to go out on the roof
In case of fire, had been torn from
tta fastenings and taken from the
buildings.
B. B. Boyd returned Thursday from
a business trip to La Grande.
