During » a past twelve months the committee has been exercising every means possible to advise and assist the u ria l anas o f the government, both for lend and s u operation.

There is ao doubt iit my mind but what a district attorney could institute mandamus proceedings in tbe circuit court for the purpose o f requiring the justice’s court to enter up a proper judgment .n the event o f a refusal o f such jus tice. For the sake o f clearneu, I w ill r e state in concluding, that since the im portant decision made by the United states Supreme Court in the case of Ex Parte United States, referred to, there should be no doubt but what it is the duty Of the justice’s court te pro nounce judgment in every criminal case where there has been a trial and conviction in said court, and permit the judgment to be duly executed. It is equally clear from the doctrine of said eaes that the court hfw author- ity to permit temporary ffl*pension o f sentence to enable legal proceedings pending or contemplated to revise It to be taken, or application fo r pardon W be made, or any other legal relief against the sentence to be resorted to. aljoumed after a very pleasant ev- and charting the Irregularities o f the atmosphere so that our aviators in. p u es and war may bava tbe benefit of exact talfcrmatlon both for I hair own safety and u an expedient to efficient operation o f aerial mees enger, recon no lasante aad fighting serv ice. , Tbe com mirteo believe* tbe time bas come when serological Stations should be esta bits bed and maintained, espe cially In conjunction with military sta tions maintained for tbs Instruction of aristón. la a telegram road by Présidant Al an R.

I w ill direct your attention to section 16£8, Lord’s Oregon Laws, which provides when a parole may be granted to n person who has been convicted o f a felony or misdemeanor in the circuit court Persons are paroled by the circuit court after conviction but it is by v ir tue o f the statute.
