no jurisdiction, is not considered. There
will be an election in 11121.
Savings are made in the operation of
the sheriff's, clerk's, assessor's and
prosecutor's offices, and 'in several min
or departments,' Because no Uioney wns
allowed for an assistant superintendent
of schools, a saving is also mnde in that
office. Superintendent lMonre asked for
nn nssitant. saying one man cannot do
the work the law requires. The other of
ficials were budgeted the sums they re
quested. No provision was made for an
agricultural agent or a county neallli

According to George W. Taylor, presi
dent of the Lane county fuir board,
Hawkins' exhibit was the best individual
exhibit thnt has ever been in the pa

t little scene in justice court this morn

"Stand up, Frank Hartell," was the
order of Acting Justice Harold .1. Wells.
"Wlint plea do you make to this?" and
he read the complaint that charged him
with the theft of five windows from the
house of C, 0. Unmmllt, near Stafford

"Not guilty," was the nnswer of tho
Mabel millmuu, a Frenchman who has

Asked If ho wanted an nttorney, ho

answer came. With It flowed a story of
sickness, injury and privation that "reg

shown, with every peace officer in tho
courtroom. A heuvy, foreign accent only
udded Interest and a touch of romance
to the story of this veteran, as he told
