He told the sporting editor of The Capital Journal that it was not at all certain that a league would be organized, as discussed atf Albany, and he taw no reason, in any event, why he should abandon his plans. "There are scores of Balem people who are willing to back the independ ent ball team proposition, and I have sot changed my mind as to its feasi bility," he said. "This is a good ball town, and the' fans want a good team. The meeting in Albany was not repre sentative enough to accomplish any thing and nothing can be known as to the league outlook until the meeting Fobruary 7.

James McGilchrist, businessman "Arrange for a. liberal yearly good roads appropriation." Mrs. Kinney, Aurora "The plan is all right if the people will see that it is carried out without losing too much money." Eber Smith, Eosodalo " That is a lot of money for one proposition, I think. Let them cut down the figure and I am with the game." Win. McGilchrist, Sr., merchant "Am not in favor of bonding the county for $850,000. I am greatly in favor of good roads, but believe the county should set aside the interest alone on the sum which it is proposed to be raised and build permanent high ways." E. C. Albin, railroad official "I don 't believe we should boost the taxes any more. They are high enough, goodness knows." Squire Johnson, real estate dealer "Sure thing. Give us good roads and by bonding in order to get 'em is the only way." Bon Robertson, Tumor "The peo ple in Turner, including myself, are in favor of this bonding proposition, pro viding wo are to know just who is to do tho work, handle the money and be responsible in every way.

Albert Gilley, accountant "I don't believe this bond matter is a good one. Requires too much time to get rid of the debt." Dr. Skiff, dentist "We need the roads, but I don't know anything about this bonding business." Fred Charlton, fruit grower "We might as well start something now as any other time." A. N. Bush, bankei "I believe the matter of building good roads should be left in the hands of our county judge. Judge Buahey is a capable man and hag made a long and careful study of the question of good roads. Another thing,I am not in 'favor of creating great indebtedness, unless some reliable returns are assured. However, I am heartily in favor of good roads, and I think County Judge Bushey should have the full say in the manner and form in which they are to be constructed." Ed. Croisan "You can say for me that I think this bonding plan now be ing proposed is a humbug. The city already has succeeded in confiscating the property of Salem people. Now they are trying to confiscate tho property of the whole county by taxation." Ooorgo Hobson, merchant "I will vote for the proposition, and I think it a good plan." Chris Faultis, capitalist "Sure. More good roads the better. Let the bonds go." Dr. W. n.

Pomeroy " Well, let them try it out. I don't know much about the proposition, in fact." Fred S. Bynon "It is a mighty fine thing for everybody," Robort D. McKinnoy, farmer "Of course, tho bonding plan is right. How could wo get the money otherwise, without dragging ourselves in debt ev en' year I" W. A. Irvine, business mnn "Yes, I have a kindly feeling for the plnn, ond I hope it is carried out successfully." C. L. Patrick, merchant "I enn't tell just what will happen if we go $850,000 in debt It may be nil right, but I am not tho one to express my assurance." John H. McNary,, lawyer "It might work out nil right. I have not studied tho matter thoroughly." Grant Corby, lawyer "Wo need roads, sure, but I am unable to sny whether wo can get them by tho pro posed bonding plan." IS (Coutiuu'd from page one.) So far as the appointment involved i(Mini'l nud legal advice to tho com missioner, it may bo said that if the officer was not well enough versed in the law governing his position to per- form its requirements, he cannot ex-1 pect the stuto to incur the expense of educating him thereto, further than may bo implied from the functions of its regular law officers. If ho desires independent advice he may secure it at his own cost. He cannot, supercede the regular officers of the state. The terms clerk stenographers, assistants, are not comprehensive enough to in elude attorneys, or to work a repeal or amendment by implication of the laws providing legal advisers for the state and in its interest." Three Departments. Tho opinion also calls attention to the constitution providing that the government shall be divided into three departments, legislative, executive and judicial, and that no person charged with official duties within ono of these departments shall exercise any of the functions of the other. In brief, the opinion holds that the appointment was not authorized by law, the claimant was not authorized to accept the office, and he could not claim pay therefor. Tho warrant of tho secretary of state was not binding on tho stnto treasurer, who according to the record and showing made to the court was Justified iu refusing to pay i he same. The writ was dismissed, anXthe mat ter of every department having a special attorney was decided finally.
