ing then disposed of, among them:
A. E. Switzler, plaintiff, vs. J. R.
Cartwright, defendant; dismissed
without prejudice.
W. P. Hill, plaintiff, vs. H. A.

der of distribution of funds arising

tered. P. W. Mahoney, attorney for

June Term Proceedings.
First day: Present, D. R. Parker,
judge presiding; S. E. Notson, dis
trict attorney; Gay M. Anderson,
clerk; C. J. D. Bauman, sheriff, and
the following proceedings were
had:
Report of grand jury:
In the Circuit court of the county
of Morrow, state of Oregon. To the
Hon. D. R. Parker, judge of the
above entitled court:
We, the undersigned, duly em
paneled as the grand jury for the
December term, 1930, of the above
entitled court, respectfully report
as follows:
We have been in session three
days. We have returned two true
bills and one not true bill.
We have Investigated all matters
pertaining to the violation of the
criminal statutes of the state of
Oregon committed or triable in
Morrow county, which have been
brought to our attention, or of
which we had any knowledge.
We have examined the county
offices connected with the adminis
tration of justice and find them
properly conducted, the officers be
ing courteous and efficient and the
records of such officers so far as we
can determine, being properly kept.
We have examined the county
jail and found It In good condition.
We also examined the county house
and find that part of it is somewhat
dilapidated, but that part is unoc
cupied. We recommend that the
premises about the county house be
cleaned up and that the dry grass
be removed or burned so as to re
duce the hazard from fire.
We recommend that the county
court take some steps to provide
water for irrigating the trees in the
grove back of the court house, and
would suggest that an effort be
made to procure water through the
old mill flume, if practicable; and
if this is not practicable, that the
court try to make arrangements
with the city of Heppner for pump
ing water from the city wells at the
old power house.
We have investigated as far as
we are able to do the methods pur
sued by the county In distributing
gasoline from the county supplies,
and we recommend that a closer
check be kept upon the distribu
tion of the county gasoline, and
that the county furnish no gasoline
for any cars or trucks except the
county cars and trucks, and that no
gasoline be Bold by the county to
the general public.
We recommend that a closer
check be kept on the menls furnish
ed at the county road camps to the
end that all meals so furnished be
properly paid for.
We have investigated methods of
spending and accounting for mon
ies spent upon the public roads,
and it appears that there has been
negligence on the part of the coun
ty court in accounting for the ex
penditure of such moneys. Money
has been transferred from one road
to another and repaid without any
proper orders of record, in a num
ber of instances. A closer check of
such transfers should be kept by
hte court and orders entered of
record when any transfer is made.
There should be a system of ac
counting installed whereby it would
be possible for anyone desiring in
formation as to the sources of the
money and the application thereof
to be able to ascertain such infor
mation readily and accurately.
We recommend that private cars
and trucks used for county pur
poses be placed upon a mileage
basis, and that the owners of such
vehicles bear all the expense in the
operation thereof.
We have examined the records
pertaining to the expenditure of
the prohibition funds by the sher
iff and district attorney and find
that said funds have been properly
expended and accurately accounted
for.
Having completed our labors, we
beg to be excused further attend
ance on the court

3 RULES
big help to BOWELS
What a joy to have the bowels move
like clockwork, every day! It's easy,
if you mind these simple rules of a
famous old doctor:
1. Drink a big tumblerful of water
before breakfast, and several
times a day.
2. Get pic 'y of outdoor exercise
without unduly fatiguing your
self. 3. Try for a bowel movement at
exactly the same hour every day.
Everyone's bowels need help at
times, hut the thing to use is Dr.
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. You'll get
a thorough cleaning-out, and it won't
leave vour insides weak and watery.
This family doctor's prescription is
just fresh laxative herbs, pure pepsin,
and other helpful ingredients that
couldn't hurt a child. But how it
wakes up those lazy bowels! How
pood you feel with your system rid
of all that poisonous waste matter.

Acid
stomach
ExCESS acid is the common cause
of indigestion. It results in pain and
sourness about two hours after eat
ing. The quick corrective is an alkali
which neutralizes acid. The best
corrective is Phillips Milk of Mag
nesia. It has remained standard with
physicians in the 50 years since its
invention.
One spoonful of Phillips Milk of
Magnesia neutralizes instantly many
times its volume in acid. Harmless,
and tasteless, and yet its action is
quick. You will never rely on crude
methods, once you learn how quickly
this method acts.
Be sure to get the genuine. "Milk
of Magnesia" has been the U. S.
Registered Trade Mark of the
Charles H." Phillips Chemical Com
pany and its predecessor Charles H.
Phillips since 1875.
