Mr.. Brady's managers were play

was spoiled when he was forced to
give his recent interview IN Lewis

TO have him make no positive state

JUDGE BEAN HAS
QUIT ONE 0FF|DE

Judge Henry J. Bean has handed
down his last decision and signed his
last paper as judge of the sixth judi
cial district and is now en- route to
Salem where Tuesday he will COM
mence his duties as associate justice
of the state supreme court. Yesterday
afternoon he handed down a decision
in the famous Warner Young will
case which declared the so-called
fourth will valid thus giving the prop
erty under contention to Mrs. Mabel
Warner, and this morning he signed
the decree. Soon after he boarded
the local and bade goodbye to Pen
dleton and Umatilla county which has
been his home for quarter of CEN
tury.
Judge Beams connection with the
political history of this county has been
one of unbroken success. He has serv-
ed the county in several different ca
pacities, as district attorney, as men,
ber of the legislature, as couny judge
and as circuit judge and the votes
which have been given him in all of
the political races he has run includ-
ing the last one for a position on the
supreme bench is a strong testimon-
ial of the esteem in. which he is held
in this community.
His resignation which takes place
tomorrow leaves the office which he
has held vacant, and citizens of PEN
dleton are awaiting with considerable
interest the appointment which Act
ing Governor Bowerman will make to
fill it. The two leading candidates
are District Attorney G.. w. Phelps
and Attorney ]. P. Winter, both Of
this city. Mr.. Phelps left this morn
ing for Portland and there are many
here who predict that when he re-
turns he will have been appointed
and sworn in as circuit judge of the
sixth judicial district until the next
election two years hence.
With the elevation of Phelps to the
| judgeship, his present office would
be left vacant and would have to be
filled by appointment. Up-to-date
the signs seem to favor Attorney
Woodson of Heppner, but the friends
of H. l. Watts of Athena, and c. j..
Ferguson of this city state that these
two men are still to be counted in the
race for the district attorneyship.
However the next few days will put
an end to all speculation for the an
nouncements will have been made.
Bowerman has only a few more days
III office, and. as he has practically
determined the selection in his own
mind. there can rL 40 reason for far
ther delay.

Though it was stoutly denied by some
of the officials of the Santa Barbara

day Miss Louise Webster's Brutus,

Athens was city OF fish eaters and its
cooks were famous for their knowledge
of cooking fish. The wise writers OF the
day spent much time in recording recipes
