Communicated.

Grants Pass, Ore, April IL, 1905.
To the Editor:
A great many statements have been
made in the last few weeks in regard
to the business affairs Of Josephine
county and alleged extravaganza has
been charged up against tho present
county administration. It might be
we'll to look at some of the items of
expense and see what 'and how our
money has been expended and what
has confronted our county officials.
Within the last four years Josephine
county has paid out for circuit court
expenses $l7, s5, technical law
yers combined with murder trials Is
one thing that has gone to swell this
fund, but the county court has no
option in these bills and they had to
be paid. The justice courts for the
same time cost the county $lS24. So /;
on bridges, $40, s94. 45 has been spent
in four years; while roads have taken
the sum of s17, 507 &c. When the size
Of the county and its many rivers and
creeks are considered, the situation
confronting the county can be better
understood.
Another item of expense that has
had to be borne by the taxpayers of
Josephine County is the Lewis
and Clark Fair. Our share of the
state taxes for that event amounted
to nearly $1,000. The county board
had nothing to do with creating this
as it was created by the state legisla.
ture.
Four years ago the county treasurer
was six years behind in the payment
of county warrants ;at the present time
he is only three years behind, which
shows a gain of three years on the
county debt.
Staten eDts have been made regard
ing probate matters and the excessive
charges made by administrators and
attorneys Now the way things ara,
it has practically proved impossible
for the county judge to control this
In one probate case that everyone is
familiar with the attorney charged
fee of 5000 in about a $2500 estate.
The county judge cut off 300. then
the attorney appeals to the circuit
court and Judge Hanna oyerrules the
county judge.
Mr.. Chausse comments on Waldo
estate where the attornev wanted
fee of $1,000, and was allowed $500
This was done as compromise and
agreed to by the attorney for both the
heirs and the administrator.
To show what kind of grating the
county court has 10 be on the watch
for all the time, take the printing of
the last delinquent tax list. Mr..
Chausse was given the work and
when it came to pay, he was just as
greedy as any common mortal; first
wanting 35c line and then reducing
to 25c. But even here there was a
graft for he printed each title in this
way:

Who expects an officer to feel
the gravity of the law and his

when he is an imbiber himself
or allows other men to use his

We are wondering how it is
possible to change the present
condition, if reports are true.
1t is time there was something
being done. AS John G. Wool
ley, editor of a strong prohibition
paper, says: 1t is time the church
ceases to be a praying machine

prayer-answering power-house

1t is time we learned the hor-

Something must be done, and
