GEORGE W. DUNN, says:
VOTE 301 X NO
. VOTE 303 X NO .
On Joe E. Dunne's Initiative Bills
!
These bills nre poorly drawn), fire indefinite, are not eo-ordimitedj so Hint liolli will
oitlier carry or both fail; but one may f arry ami one fail, and, in the event that either
or both carry it would throw the state highway program into confusion, would eripplec
the county road construct ion and place an added bnrdeiupoii real property that is al
ready bearing more than its just burden of taxation.
The Dunne license lrill provides that, "after the expenses of collection," etc, are de
ducted one-half of the license money is turned over to the stateijrhway commission and
one-half "shidl be remitted hyyVarrant of t?e Slate Treasurer to the County Treasurers
of the villus counties of the stale, in pro,.rtion of llie amount officii moneys which
shall have been received from such counties for license fees."
You will note the county's share is turned over to the County Treasurer and no pro
vision for placing said money in the county rjd fund. Consequently it must be placed in
tluOcounty general .'.id; and, under the law' (see Chapt. 356 Laws 1927), the County
Court cannot use eeneral fund .money for road purposes. This would leave the County
1 Court without funds to match "narket gad funds of the government and seriously cur
tail work on all coOty projects. q
tji'liere is no probability of both Dunne bills enrryinc, because those who favor. fowcr
licenses are not likely to vote to increase ti e ;;as tax. Should this happen the State High
way Commission would have to stop all new road construction as there would he barely
oiinuh funds to pay outstanding bonds a'.d intQst thereon gin Tnc balance, if any,
would be used for upkeep of roads already constructed. Work lias been stoppiV by the
Highway Commission ever since the Dunne hilfc; have been initiated. It is quite
evident that the motor busses and trucks will favor the Dunne license bill because they
will receive verv large reductions in the amount of their licenses, as it is clearly set
forth in your voters' pamphlet. t
A committee appointed by Senator Corbet t, president of the State Senate, lias been
studying the license and gas tax (plestiou and has recently gone on record as favoring a
reduction in license fees, and will, if necessary, submit a constitutional amendment to
Ihc'people, making it possible to consider value in used cars as well as license for use nj
the highways. This being true, it would seem that it would be for the best interests of
nil in vnfn n on both Dunne bills and allow the coming legislature to pass such legis-G
41ation as the people of Oregon demand.

Trial Work Heavy and Continuous
in Jackson County
To THE REPUBLICAN CENTRAL COMMITTEE,
Medford, Oregon. .
Gentlemen: .After September 17, 1925, trial work was practically con
tinuous in Jackson County up to June 1, 1926, an unprecedented amount
of cases being tried. The net result of this was to collect an unusual
amount of appeals. The court r.eporter was burdened with an excessive
amount of work, procuring -private rooms and 'installing a dictograph
and ether equipment. It was necessary and he did employ an assistant
to aid in and out of the courtroom and fwp stenographers to do transcript
work.
Getting Oui: Transcript Entirely Matter Between Attorneys
and Court Reporter
It must be understood that the attorney orders his transcript from
the court reporter, arranges for Us payment and delivery. It is purely a
transaction between them in which the judge has no part. Of course, , I
knew the court reporter was under a deluge of transcript orders, exten-'
siens of time were granted to meet unusual temporary conditions. Dur
ing this period, as stated, the attorneys dealt direct with the court report
er, as is the custom. The first knowledge I had of fear -of loss of ca&es be
cause cf delay in transcript work was just before the hearing in the su
preme court in the Walker ca-se, hereafter mentioned.; A 'motion 7 ha-ci
been made to dismiss on the ground of delay in filing transcript. Later'
this motion vas denied so the alarm was not justified.
The attorneys list several cases they claim were lost through the
delay of the court reporter to get out transcripts. Space will permit the
discussion of only five which should settle this point. ,
Attorneys Inacurate and Unfair as Usual. '
(1) McNair vs. Loughridge. V -
In -a long statement, the attorneys say that this case was lost be
cause of failure to get the record, and "the supreme court dismissd the
appeal because the record had been delayed too long." The foregoing
statement i3 not in accord with the facts. The case was dismissed be
' cause it was settled out of court. . The following telegram from F. N.'
Phelps, attcrney for the plaintiff, fully answers: .
"McNair vs.'Poughridge settled by stipulation Sept. 16, 1927.
Cash paid $4500. Defendants settled doctor's, claim $2100
and hospital claim $1000." , '
The case Was compromised, settled' and dismissed by agreement.
(2) Walker vs. Fireman's Fund Insurance Co.
ie Sifpreme Court in its opinion, 122 Ore. page 190 dees not dis
miss the case on Account of failure to file transcript but on the contrary
held that the motion to dismiss on that ground was not good. The, at
torney for the appealing party failed to interpret tfie rules of the su
preme court correctly and filed his printed abstract (not transcript)
the ffcrst day of the second term following the appeal, oy day late The
delay in obtaining transcript had nothing whatever to do with the dis
pcsal of the case. '
(3) Hogan vs. Mason Motor Company. '
This case is not yet decided in the supreme court, which fact makes
it sel evident that iff was not dismissed for failure of the court reporter to
get out transcript. 0
(4) Reed vs. Orr.
Tftis case is reported in 122 Ore. page 45 and is a repetition of the
Walker case. Ij was dismissed by the supreme court for failure to meet
fche requirements of a printed abstract of record (not transcript.) The
printed abstract of record contains the pleadings, not the evidence. .
The Joke Seem 8 toBeonGus
(5) Yc3t vs. McGrew, decided December 6, 1925. 1
In another circular much is said about this case. Plaintiff's attor
ney was Mr. Gus Newbury. I learned that complaint was being made
about the transcript, and was informed that it was practically complete.
Laler the court reporter told me that Mr., Newbury had failed to pay him
for another transcript and that he expected to hold the Yost Work until
the matter was adjusted.
Being a business matter strictly between the two, I gave it no fur
ther consideration. '
C.M.THOMAS,
Tomorrow, responsibility for delay and extension of time will be
discussed. ,
