The Albany Democrat, a patent
medicine advertisement daily that
inflicts itself upon a few Of the peo-
pie Of Albany calls the editor Of
this paper a populist because it
stands up for the people against a
rotton swindle that one of his fat
friends which was imported over
here Is helping to engineer through.
If standing up against such things
as the Job bank swindle, the Hadley
railroad swindle, and the present
owner map business makes an editor
a populist, then we plead guilty.
And we are not ashamed of it
either.

tention away from their outrageous
scheme by inventing an attack in

The Job Bank and the County
Funds.

Funds.
1t will be remembered that Ben
ton county brought suit some time
ago against ] X. Bryson, as assign
ee of Hamilton, Job & Co. to re-
cover the amount of money the
county had on deposit in that in
stitution at the time of the failure,
alleging that such money was
trust fund and must be returned as
such. The Corvallis Times in
speaking of the case says:
In the case of Benton county
against J r. Brysou as assignee of
Hamilton, Job & Co., the assignee,
has filed his answer and admits
that there was a balance in favor of
Benton county of SII,o57.s6 when
the bank suspended. but denies any
any knowledge as to whether any
part of that money is in his hands
as the assignee. And also denies
that the money placed there was
special deposit or bailment of said
money, and that it was not intend
ed that the identical moneys depos-
tied should be returned, but that
the same was similar TO oil general
deposits; that the same was mingled
with the other meneys of the bank.
1t further denies that Burnett,
county treasurer of Benton county,
is i'll any way entitled to preference
over the other geneial depositors
for any part of the money in the
hands of the assignee.
The answer fora separate defense
alleges in effect that more than two
years prior to May, 1893, the coun-
ty treasurer opened an account
with said bank in the name of M.
p. Burnett, county treasurer, sub
ject to check and that he drew
against the same by check, and
that the same was received, not as
special but as general deposits in
the said bank and that the same
was not kept separate from, but
was mingled with the general funds
and not capable of Identification.
1t is also claimed as defense
that the county treasurer presented
claim for this against the assignee
and also claims that Benton county
by its agents and officers had knowl-
edge of the custom of the county
treasurer of depositing the county
funds with the bank on general de-
post subject to check.
The answer claims that II would
be inequitable and a prejudice to
the other creditors to allow plaintiff
to receive payment In full of said
SII,o57, or to make any claim 9th.
er than the money was general
deposit.
1t Is claimed that on May Ist,
1893 Hamilton, Job & Co. had
cash OH hand in the sum of S3I ,7Ia,
and tha between May Ist, 1893,
and June 10th, Hamilton, Job &
Co. received numerous deposits and
that the same were not used for the
purpose of making loans but were
used i'll paying the indebtedness of
the bank; and alleges that the
claims so far presented aggregates
about the sum of S223,555.4o, and
the assets aggregate in all about
the $4,000. The assignee claims
that he received from said Hamil-
ton, Job & Co. SrI,725.2I, and no
more in money, and that there has
been $50, 900 Of claims and de-
mands made upon the ground that
the sums included in the same we're
trust funds and were entitled TO be
paid In full, and that the claims
have not been adjudicated as to
whether they were trust funds or
not, and claim that il would be un-
just to the other creditors.

Because Of the unfavorable condition

THE WE'LL DOESN'T WORK.

The Story of n Man Who Used big Words
Charles McNulty owns farm near the
city and not long ago two colOred men
named I. Level and Clabe Harris made
him proposition to dig a we'll 1t hap
pened that McNulty needed well and
he made a contract with the two men TO
dig it, the we'll to be satisfactory and on
q flowing stream or no pay.
The two men went to work with lit
tie switch to locate the underground
streams. Their first well was sixteen
feet deep when rock was struck that
dynamite wouldn't bulge. The next one
was only three feet deep when rock was
struck Another effort resulted the same
way.
Finally McNulty pointed out a spot
where he thought there was water and
said if they would dig the we'll there he
would pay for it whether water was
reached or not The men dug the well
there and a good water supply was
tapped The well was paid for.
Then McNulty told the men they
might continue experimenting under
their old contract, or quit, which ever
they preferred. The coIored men went
to work again and dug a fifth we'll, that
resulted in finding water. They then
the well only furnishes about three
buckets of water in three days, and isn't
satisfactory within the meaning of the
contract. But he claims to have lost the
written contract he made with the men.
In Justice Growers court Level and
Harris got judgment for the well, but
now the case is in the district court, on
an injunction to prevent the judgment
being enforced.
Level was the most comical witness
that has been in the court for long
time. He is tall young man, very fond
of using big words.
''Is this your signature?" asked one of
the lawyers
Eyes, sir; that is my enscrollment"
Level told the court incidentally, how
he went to Colorado ssto witness the fu-
neral arrangements of his mother, who
had died previously"
Judge Hazen took the case under ad-
visement until Monday.

The preliminary hearing of Ray Hoff-

with Frank L. Turner in counterfeiting,
came up before United States CommIs-
sioner Mileham yesterday afternoon.
William j. Burns, special agent of
the United States secret service. who ar
rested Hoffhiues was the first witness for
the government. He said that Hoffhines
made the statement after he was arrested
that he had furnished the money to buy
the press and the paper upon which the
counterfeit bills were printed.
Il asked him if he had expected to be
arrested" said Burns. "He replied that
he had. l asked him when Turner had
first approached him on the subject of
manufacturing counterfeit money? He
said last December. Turner needed
money and told him of his plans. He
and furnished $35 to buy a press and
purchased a supply of No. % bond paper
from Hall & O'Donald. He also said
that he had assisted in the printing and
cutting of the paper and that he had
given the bills to Teter which Teter in
tended to give to Fowkes when he was
captured. He said Teter was to be bust
ness manager. He was first to be reim-
bursed from the sales of counterfeit
money, and then the profits were to be
equally divided among Turner, Teter
and himself"
Turner was to have been put upon the
stand to prove that Hoffhines had moth

prosecution had closed the defense con-

HOlton yesterday for her preliminary ex-
animation, and was bound over to the

$4,000.
The court room was crowded. The
testimony was of a highly sensational
nature. and is not fit to appear in the

animation all ladies present were ex-
part the testimony goes to show that the
girl is laboring under the sort of mania
that is to be CLEANED from reading too

do the running away herself
