tions to carry out complete disarma
ment and demobilization, and a com

program of the new German govern
ment which has just been published

(Grants Pass Courier.)
Last night was a good night tor
the officers and a poor one for boot
leggers. . Over 200 quarts were seiz
ed here by Government Agent Grant.
The goods were found In tbe J. S.
Taylor residence at the corner of
Evelyn avenue and Xorth Fifth street
which has been -vacant until recent
ly rentod by the bootleggers. The
men who rented the house were two
of a bunch of five, all of whom are
now under arrest and held at Port
land. When making application for
the house they stated that they
would want it for the summer. One
of the five was arrested at Corvallts.
being the person who recently ship
ped an auto loaded with booze
through this city to Corvallls, two
others were taken at Portland and
the other one at Albany.
Thus one whole division of boot
leggers has fallen into the bands of
the enemy, and the local officers
state that they have a very good
hunch" who the gang's local agents
are at this place.
When Mr. Grant was standing by
an automobile at the Taylor resi
dence last night about 11 o'clock,
Night Policeman Wible approached
him and asked the government agent
what business he had there. Grant
showed his credentials and then ask
ed W'tble what be was there for. The
night watchman then showed his
star, after which the two got along
together quite well.
In a diary taken from one of the
arrested men was found a notation
which read: "This man we know,"
and Grants Pass was named and the
street and number of the bouse were
given-...With the aid of this it was
little effort for Mr. Grant to locato
tbe precious liquid.
.With the aid of Sheriff Lewis the
whiskey was boxed np and stored at
the county jail this forenoon, where
it awaits disposal with other con
signments. . .

The long continued legal muddle
over the two court houses situation
In Klamath county and on which one
phase was hoard in ctrcutt court at
Jacksonville yesterday and six other
phases were being argued today In
chambers before Judge Calkins In
Medford. bids fair to be In tangible
shape soon tor a square out and out
presentation and decision from the
courts, as at the conclusion of the
session this noon the leaders and
attorneys of the rival . factions had
gone tar towards reaching an agree
ment for presentation of the final
Issue at court. The present heurlngs
In Medford were expected to end this
afternoon.
But when the issue Is finally tried
In circuit court it is a foregone con-'
elusion that whichever side loses will
carry the matter to tho supremo
court, as both aides are bitter, and
the controversy much partakes of a
political nature.
In all five separate cases growing
out of the court house muddle were
being argued today before Judge
Calkins on demurrer, with a number
of Klamath county attorneys present
representing both factions, and also
Jay Bowerman of Portland, assisting
one ot the factions.. A. H. Reame of
Medford and Harrison Allen ot Port
land, represented the interests of Mr.
Dugan, the contractor ot tbe new
court house, at the hearing. The
present Klamath county court mem
hers and the members of the old
county court, as well as District At
torney Duncan and his assistant, Mr.
Wyle, were also present.
