State by Governor West, to fill the va
cancy caused by the death of F. W.

Court, and in the absence of the Sec
retary of State, the commission was
attested by the Governor's private sec
retary. Although having 20 days in
which to file a bond for $10,000, Ol
cott put up a personal bond this
morning to take the place of a surety
bond temporarily.
The first act to be performed by
Mr. Oleott as Secretary of State took
Ben W. Oleott
place this morning, when Miss Marga
ret Putna.m,-of Salem, was appointed
to a position in the automobile license

'There will be no changes made In
the office at the present time," said

my sole object will be to familiarize
myself with the departmental work
upon taking charge of the office. I
intend to inform- Chief Clerk Corey
and the remainder of the force that
they may continue carrying out their
duties as though I were not about, and
will put in my entire time for the
present acquainting myself with the
duties I will have to perform in the
future. I can assure everyone that
there will be perfect harmony between
myself and other members of the State
Board, and I am going to attend to
the duties in connnection with board
matters in a purely business like man
ner, as I think they should be attended
to. Although I am not entirely familiar
with matters pertaining to the work of
the board, I will educate myself along
those lines and endeavor to look after
the affairs of the state to the best of
my ability."
Mr. Oleott took up the regular du
es of his office Wednesday.

NEW STEELBRIDGE ORDERED
County Will Build $1150 Structure
Over Luekiainute River.
The County Commissioners' Court
has Just completed arrangements for
the erection of a neat and substantial
steel bridge across the Lucklamute
River on. the Independence, Buena
Vista and Benton County wagon road.
When completed its total cost will
amount to $4150.
The Court is trying a new scheme In
the manner of having work done, in
the belief that money can be saved the
county thereby. Heretofore such work
was let by contract to the lowest bid
der, but it is believed now that better
work at less cost can be obtained by
buying the material and hiring a com
petent man to take charge ot the work I
of putting it in place. Owing to the
heavy damage by floods this spring,
which washed out a good many of
the old wooden structures Jn the
county, the cost of bridges will be un
usually heavy this year and next, and
particular pains will be taken to lop
off the expense wherever it can be
done consistently. In the present In
stance, the members of the court figure
that they have saved about $1200 over
the old method. Last year the Brunk
bridge of 126-foot span waa erected
at a cost of oyer $5000, while the new
bridge, which. Is to be 140 feet In
length, will be put in for $4150, as
mentioned.
In deciding the style of the structure
the Court accepted the plans and spec
ifications of the Atlas Bridge Com
pany and their offer to furnish all of
the steel material required, and to de
liver it at Parker Station ready' to be
put in place, for the sum of $3400, of
which $3000 is to be paid in county
warrants on delivery of material, the
remainder to be paid upon completion
of the bridge ready for travel, accord-

to do all or most of Its playing on the ing to the plans and specifications. The

Paying Rent Bills.
County Judge and Mrs. Ed F. Coad
have been busy lately moving into
their new cottage on Hayter street,
near Mill. Their new home, which
contains seven well - proportioned

woodshed, -which he asserts is a wood
shed entirely after his own heart

model of convenience, accessibility,
and practicability scientifically, hy
gienically and artistically correct that
Is so arranged that he can split wood
therein all day without getting tired.
Judge and Mrs. Coad have been oc
cupying the Otho Willams property on
Mill street, near the Evangelical
church, which will soon be taken pos
session of by Mr. and Mrs. Williams.

for the business block to be built there
