SUPERVISORS HOLD OVER
Judge Boise Decides Legislature Did
Not Contemplate Vacancies.

Judge R. P. Boise, sitting at an adj
journed term Of Circuit Court fol
Polk County, Department No. 2, Tues
day afternoon, rendered decision to
the effect that Road Supervisors elect
ed in June, 1902, are entitled to hold
Office until January 1, 1904. The case
at issue, that Of E. @. Kirkpatrick VS..
John Middleton, Supervisor of road
district No. II, has attracted con-
siderable attention in Polk County
and elsewhere, not because of the
amount involved, but because oflegal
questions which affected not only the
defendant, but also every other Road
Supervisor in Oregon.
Ever since the passage of the road
law by the last Legislature there has
been much contention as to whether
the law of 1908 repealed the act of 1901,
and legislated out of office the Road
Supervisors holding under that act
The case of Kirkpatrick against Mid
dleton was brought in order to test
this question in the courts.
A few weeks ago Middleton de-
manded of kirkpatrick the payment
Of So road poll tax. Kirkpatrick re-
fused to pay the amount, on the ground
that he held legal claim against
Polk county for a sum equal to OF
greater than the amount Of the tax.
Middleton refused to recognize or ac-
cept Kirkpatrick's claim and imme-
diately began an action in the Justice
Court for the tax. A trial was had
and the Justice rendered judgment
against kirkpatrick for the amount
Of the tax and costs.
The case was then taken to the Cir
cult Court for review, the principal
contention raised by Kirkpatrick be-
ing that Middleton had no authority
to sue in the lower court for the reason
that the law under which he was elect
ed had been repealed prior to the
bringing OF the action and that by
reason of said repeal Middleton was
not legally elected and qualified
officer, but only an intruder.
After hearing the arguments Of
counsel Judge Boise decided that
Middleton is duly elected, qualified
and acting supervisor; that no
authority is given the courtto appoint
before January, 1904; that the road
districts remain intact and that the
present Road Supervisors hold Office
under the act of 1901 until January l,
1904. The court holds that it was not
the intention Of the Legislature in
passing the law to abolish road
districts or to allow any vacancy to
occur in the Office of Road Supervisor.
