After taking a rather lengthy vaca tion, Cupid seems to have at last again gotten "into the running," and as a remit he seut in one order to County Clerk Cheshire. But there was somewhat of a bitch about the affair, before the coveted document was finally procared. The happy couple hailed from Kerby, Lester L Sohleigh, aged 19 years, a native of Anderson, Cal, and Hattie V Wimer, aged 18, a native of Applegate, Jose phine roaoty. The young man. brought along the written oonsent of his parents, bat when It came to finding some on to identify the young lady, as the law requires, there was another hitch. Bat at length the dis appointed con pie returned home, where the necessary papers were made out and forwarded to Clerk Cheshire, who at once sent tbesa the desired document. Tax Money Now Rolling In Owing to some misunderstanding the printer failed to have the tax re ceipts ready and so, when Mr. Jndson turned la the rolls, last Thursday there waa "nothing doing" in the office of Sheriff Russell, who is ex officio tax collector. Bat the neces sary blanks were In readiness by Tuesday of this week and now the people all over the county are turning their annual stipends into the county's voffers. Deputy Walt Smith informed the Courier that the taxpayers were com ing to hand very promptly and that be thought that this year's collections would be probably nearly as good as thosn of last season, in spite of the dull timet, Josephine County v Same to same, lot 1, block 67, O T S of Grant Pass, $43.

Saloonltle In Litigation As the June contest at the ballot in approaches, interest in anything that pertains to the saloons is of more than pasting importance.
