BENTON'S JAIL COST.
Smallest IN State-Expenses
County and Sheriff's Office
Extremely Low.

Ne jail EXPENSES vi DSutOu Gull
ty for the past II months were less
than that of any other county in
Oregon. Remembering that, with
Multnomah excluded, Benton in
population, is much more than an
average county. the statement is of
exceeding interest. 1t tells sto-y
of decency aud good citizenship, of
which Benton people ought to be
proud.
The total Jail expense for the
year in Benton was $2e.o7. Of the
as counties in the state, only a few
of the very smallest approached
Benton in the smalIness the Jail
expense, Only three fell below
500, and all but five ran
above $500. Some of them cos t

expense. was $o62.5I, Douglas,
81, ,126.25, and Multnomah, SII,-
| |165.4o. When District Attorney
Brown some time ago, said there is
less court expense in Benton than
in any other county in the state,
be. knew what he was talking about.
The information as to the, Jail ex-
pense appears in the report of the
secretary Of state lately issued.
OTHER INTERESTING FACTS.
The secretary S report also con
tains other extremely interesting in
formation. Of the as counties in
Oregon, only in seven were the
county expenses for the year as
small as in Benton. The seven
were of course the smallest counties
in the state some Of them having
less than half the population. OF
Benton. In two Of them the ex-
penses were within 5000 or $500 oi
1 that in Benton, all of which ought
to be gratifying to Benton taxpay'
ers. And in the same connection,
according to the secretary's report
the cost of conducting thesherifsoh
cein Benton as contrasted with tha
$ in the other counties, is even more
| conspicuoustfor its showing of ex
traordinary economy. AS every
| body knows, and as the law says,
a sheriff may appoint deputy ane
and report such appointment to the
| county court, and if the court finds
: such deputy necessary, provision
shall be made by the court for ths
payment of the salary of such dep
uty out of the general fund, th'
same as any other charges. Th'
, law applies equally to all counties
and while in many Of the countie

Mr.. Vincenheller says: The

Ter county as far north as Fouke,
about 20 miles above the Louisiana

of infestation extends in a more or

the latter county it has not extend
ed more than twelve miles across

In answer to an inquiry by the

rector of the Arkansas Agricultur-

question in his mind but that the
boil weevil has already made its
appearance in Arkansas and that
unless precautions are taken by
the farmers it will spread to lar

Vincenheller has been in commun-

who is in charge of the govern.

and Louisiana, and DR.. Hunter
states that already the weevil has
made its appearance IN Miller,
