WINS ANOTHER CASE.
Rev. o. d. Taylor Discharged In the
Seemann Case

| Rev ". u. Iaylor discouraged IN Tn
! seemann Case.
A paper received from Saginaw
Michigan, bearing date of January 9th
states that the case of the people v:
o. D. Taylor, of The Dalles, Oregon,
in which Joseph Seemann was com.
plainant, was brought to a close on the
4th when Judge Wilber directed a
verdict of mot guilty. to be returned.
The charge of the judge in ordering
a verdict of mot guilty sets up the
facts in the case, which are, briefly
stated, that defendant sold six lots in
North Dalles, Washington, to COM
plainaut, representing them to be free
from encumbrance, whereas four of
the lots were mortgaged. This charge
is not denied by defendant, but his
testimony was tina. he believed at
the time of the sale the lots were free
from encumbrance, and. that before
the case was begun the mortgage
thereon was paid, which removed the
charge of intending to defraud or
cheat Seeman, AS Seaman was not
Gefrauded by any wrongful act there
could have been no crime committed,
and the case must be dismissed.
This is said to be. the strongest case
against Taylor of the many indict-
ments against him at Saginaw, hence
it is likely all others cases will be
and Mr.. Taylor will walk
forth a free man.

Oregon, back OF tits the reason 1t is
considered good security for so much
money.
Gillian county will probably build
new court house at Condor during
the year. The town of Condor pro-
poses to donate $500 and the citizens
of the town $500 more, and as it is
estimated that the new structure will
cost $1,000, the county will have to
put up only $1,000.

w. N. Wiley writes from Antelope
under date of the 9th, stating that the
weather there had been quite severe
for week and the ground was covered
with eight inches of snow. What
hay there was for sale in that section
had been bought by stock owners,
who were fortifying themselves against
long spell of bad weather. Mr.. Wi
ley does not anticipate any great loss
of stock in the Antelope country if
the snow should 60 off by the middle
of February.
One OF the neatest devices appearing
in this city is an electrical clock in

| The clock is SO arranged that it can
be regulated. stopped or started by
pressing button inside the building,
| and in this respect is more convenient
than any other style of street or tower
clocks, all of which have to be regulat-
ed by the operator getting in close
contact with the clock.

there will be no action taken in the |

Stockman county will be created. as
the move to get Sutton county est

positions put forth by the people of

sired to invest, and on the streng of
his representations succeeded in ber-
