No decrease in the budget esti mates over last year is anticipated for the county - treasurer's office, county assessor, or expenses of the circuit court. Treasurer A. C. Walk er and Assessor J. B.

' -- : 'Many orrlces Cut"' ' i: Outs In the other office expenses range from the 2013.S0 decrease in county clerk's ; -department ' to 1 the $220 slash In the county court expen ditures.

" ' The county clerk's estimates call for a 900 decrease in typists pay. $100 decrease for extra help; $800 for printing and record books, $100 leas for postage and stationery, and $60 for' typewriter supplies and repairs. The budget last year totalled $11.- 447.30 against an estimated $13,438 the coming year: - ?

The district attorney's office esti mates a $310 decrease over last year confined to less light, ' fewer law books and less transcription of the records.

FEW RAINDROPS IN SUNDAY: FALL The first rain to fall in Medford since June 27, fell In Medford last evening, but at that was only a light sprinkle (or a short time, amounting to what In weather bureau parlance is known as a trace, too small to measure. However, in Talent the precipita tion was heavier, as likewise In one or two sections of the Applegate, and at Union creek there were several light r.howcrs lasting over a period of several hours, which laid the dust, but people coming to the city from Union creek this morning report that apparently no rain fell at Prosurct. Altogether, tho rainfall was spotted as to quantity. All this rain seemed coincident with tho electrical storm In the Sis kiyou early in the evening accom panied by rain ror some distance this side or the mountain, and which went on southeast leaching the Cas cade divide and skirting tho divide north. ' This storm was accompanied by some thunder and much lightning or the sheet sort, which started eight lightning tires along Vie divide in the Crater National forest, all small one. The sheet of lightning accom panying tho electrical storm were very spectacular, lighting tip the entire mountain country at times, and this blanket lightning which ac companied the rain at Union creek afforded the cottagers and other at that resort a beautirul spectacle.

Alison, county-physician, appeared before the county court this morning and was granted an extension of "a week or ten days" in which to lie a' memoranda In behalf of hla .client. Attorney Rob ert said- that the memoranda would be In the: nature of a statement, showing the extent of Dr. Wilson's activities InV-alth work and expen ditures and savings. ... Attorney Roberts declared, "I can assure the court that Dr. Wilson,- will not resign. ' ' ' : The attorney said that newspaper reports, predicting thls.; "prejudiced the case," and that Dr. "Wilson was entitled to consideration "upon something more than evidence that would not be permissible in a higher court." Attorney Roberts said that a grand Jury Investigation was wel comed." He declared that the "pres ent dissension and turmoil was due to a disturbing faotor, now removed," and "Dr. Wilson I assuming Vie role of a political pawn." The county court last week heard the defense side at a hearing and held a decision in abeyance. The action this morning delays It further. L The present sttuatlon was brought about by Dr. . Wilson ousting Mrs. Lydla King who shortly afterwards filed serious' charges, alleging misuse of funds, appropriating county medic inal alcohol for social uses and ac- ceptlng a $20 check from an aged Oold Hill district resident, and allog- i edly converting It to purchase Christ mas presents for county poor farm attendants.'
