PSGE FOUR MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUXE, MEDFORD, QREGpy, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1933. EAGLE POINT RFC L( E (Continued mm Fag One.) the reconstruction finance corpora tion. Efforts are now being made to secure a loan for the Talent district, and If It la secured the total bonded Indebtedness of Irrigation districts In the valley will have been reduced from approximately $2,500,000 to ap proximately $1,000,000. Districts now financed through RFC loans are Eagle Point, Rogue River, Gold Hill and Mtdford. Applications were filed for these four districts In August 1933, and, considering various legal tangles that had to be straight ened out and other necessary delays, the loans have been closed In a sat isfactory length of time, according to Irrigation officials. "the seat of government of the state of Oregon waa not located "at" the city of Salem, but Salem was design ated as the seat of government, and o remains. "The corporate boundaries of Salem as they existed at the time of Its selection as the seat of government, were fixed by the legislative act of 1863. As so fixed the southern boun dary of the city of Salem waa the south line of the donation land claim of William H. Wilson, which la Identi cal with Mission street. "Although the corporate limit of aald city have since been greatly en larged, under the authorities above cited and quoted, thla haa not en larged the seat of government but the same remains within the 11 mite of the oity of Salem as they existed on the first Monday In June, 1804, when the election was held." The attorney general's opinion, unless reversed by the courts, elimi nates all proposed altea for the capltol with the exception of Its present old site and the proposed annexation of Willamette University camua. LIMITATION SET (Continued from Lago Ona) city of Salem was to purchase the site at $76,000 and contribute $27, 500 more toward the buildings, leav ing the state's ahare of the cost at 385.000. Senator Charles L. MoNarr telegraphed Washington last nlht to rush consideration of this proposal. Immediately upon definite word of the federal government's action on the latter application, It was indi cated the special session of the legis lature would be called. Current spec ulation placed the date September 30 or soon after. The two houses will convene In the state armory and a portion of the Marlon hotel. The legislature, by that time, should have plans for the building structure end details provided for the acquisition of more land for the cap ltol. Selection of sites has been ma terially simplified by the attorney (eneral's opinion today. The legis lature, In the final analysis, will de termine all phases of the program. Salem Selected In ISM. Salem was selected as the seat of government by the voters June 8, 18M. giving the present capital city a majority of 70 votes. The records disclosed that Salem received 6108 votes, Portland 3864, Eugene city 1588 and all other places 477. Referring to the question of wheth er or not the seat of government was located "In" or "at" Salem, Van Win kle aald: "In none of such provisions of the constitution or statute la It provided that the seat of government shsll be located at the place or point so se lected, but the provision Is thst the place or point receiving the majority of all votes cast shsll 'be' the seat of government." In discussing as to whst territory was and Is Included in the designa tion of "Salem", the attorney general referred to various controverales over courthouse locations, from cases In Michigan, Iowa, Alabama, Kansas. Missouri snd Florida, holding thst "It Is natural to Infer that at least the primary meaning of the terms 'county eat' and 'seat of government' Is like." Cases Cited From the cited oases Vsn Winkle declared thst "It Is well established by the unanimous conscnaua of judi cial authority that the boundaries of tha seat of government are those of the city, town or other place desig nated at the time and by the act of locating and designating the seat of government. and as so fined such boundaries remain until chang ed In tha manner provided by law. and the court house or other public buildings where the principal func tions of government are performed cannot be located outside of such original sent of government unless nd until such seat of government Is removed. The Klsmsth county court house battle waa referred to by Van Winkle. In this Instance, he held, the location of the county sent, when established was "at Llnkvllle." and when It was proposed to sdd more territory and change the name to Klsmath rails, the court held thst since "at Llnk vllle" under such clrcumatancea was qulvslent to "near or In proximity to thst place."

Mr. Roosevelt said he expected before departing on his trip to the Pacific coast that he would approve direct grants to states and municipalities totollng $200,000,000.

These are to be cancelled and the funds are to be used else where. Thl Is expected to provide an additional $320,000,000.'
