In the vory next paragraph .ho said: "Tho American Indian Is Just as much entiled to a squaro deal as any ono else In tho republic, and It wo should bo called to responsibil ity ho will get It."

The same sentiment Is being express ed in growing volume among Kla math county Republicans and that It Is driven home to Republicans In the big counties of the north Is at tested by the following, statement from Lane county's Republican head quarters, reprinted from the Port land Oregenlan: "Lane county will go for SUnfleld for United States sen ator by a alrge pluraltly." de clares Dv E, Yoran or Eugene, republican county chairman ot Lane county. "Lane county Is strong for Harding and Coolldge and the republicans are determined to elect a republican senator to support President Hardlng-a policies. They do not believe lau hobbling the president and they realise that for Mr. Hard ing to carry out his policies and give the people the roller they need from extravagance in gov ernment and burdensome taxa tion they must have a republi can senate. "The republicans or Lann county like Mr. Stontleld's stand for the protective tariff and for the development of our agri cultural resources. They know ho lias the ability to obtain the co-operation of the federal gov ernment In developing our state. "Lane county republicans are making an active campaign. Every precinct Is organised. Wc havo distributed 4000 litho graph of Harding and Coolldge and 6000 buttons, as woll as lit erature. "We are much pleased to learn that other counties. In cluding Multnomah, are making a sturdy campaign for the entire republican ticket.

Mills for legal services rendered to the eonntr and county court in the courthouse litigation, July 31, last are still oa file In the county clerk's office. When the bills were filed the cleric noted on each. In view of the fact that no fund was apparent oa which warrants could be properly drawn, a desire that the county court deslka ate the fund from which, the bills could be paid in the event that the court allowed them. Evidently Ina bility to discover a fund to which they may be legally charged Is hold- Mr. Mills' bill Is for "balance due due In full for all legal services aa attorney ot record In the suit of the J.

Mr. Mill's previous bill for M50t was allowed at the same time as the Elliott bill for $1500. It was paid from the assistant district attorney's fund. At the time this fund was be- " Ing used to psy the expenses ot County Detective J. F. Morley. With the wiping out of the fund Morley ceased to faactlon as comity de tective. The fund now stands as be ing overdrawn $885.70. Mr. Mills' appointment as assistant to the.eouaty prosecutor, made prior to the allowance ot the bill, furnish es the theory oa which payment from this fund was made. While the county was maintaining this fund for furnishing the prose cutor's office with detective services, the county court found It necessary to employ further detective services In the courthouso case and called In tho Qlhac Secret Service agency ot San Francisco, whose bill for $1073.- 80 was allowed and after some de mur by the county clerk was paid in July. The Herald sets forth these facts at this time in unbiased fashion, be lieving that voters are entitled to their possession, because the court house question Is being made an Issue in the election of the next county Judge and county commis sioner. Parties to controversy each have their view of tho propriety and non-propriety ot Incurring this ex- v pense, and their views etxend to the manner ot payment from sources which one side maintains were pro per funds and which' the other side maintains were not proper funds, be cause they were not authorised by the people to be used for payment ot lawyers and detectives. Tho only view that the Herald takes cognizance ot in presenting the facta is the public view the Interest ot the non-partisan who Is entitled to know something ot the amounts that it has cost and Is costing as long as the courthouse controversy exists. The miscellaneous costs of tho trial, such as witness and Juror's fees, traveling expenses of attoraeya and county court members, archi tects' fees, etc., form another bulky total Which may be touched upoa later.
