Letters Relief On
To Reveal Plot.

Neither Of the letters had been in
troduced as evidence, and the air OF
mystery around both aroused the Gu
riosity of all liSeners.
Mr.. Dorsey calling one letter "a and
another "B" asked which letter was the
older. Mr. Ashe replied that "A" was
written first.
In order to test Mr. Ashes skill, Col
onel Rossel pulled letter out of his
pocket and asked the witness what
typewriter it was written on. He said
he thought 1t was a Smith Premier,
but was unable to swear unless ne
could be allowed to make comparisons.
Still another letter was produced as
a test letter. Mr. Ashe called the spec
linen an Underwood" specimen. The
letters "A" and "B" were supposed to
have been written by Eugene Grace on
typewriter.
Mr.. Rosser piled the witness with a
volly of questions seeking to find out
the methods Mr.. Ashe used in arriving
at a conclusion as to a typewriter age,
style. etc.
The typewriter testimony caused
quite furry in the court room. The
intention of the prosecution was to
trace the letters to Grace.
The two letters involved this aft
ernoon are believed to form one Of the
most important links in the chain
against Mrs. Grace.

AN ERROR CORRECTED
Electric Light Clerk TranspOsed
Item in Columns and Made APP
parent Undercharge.

One of the things which have
caused some suspicion of the man
agement of the electric light plant
and which has undoubtedly preju-
diced some against the management,
among them the writer, was the en-
try in the recorders monthly state
ment for September, showing $275
for labor for maintenance, when the
payroll of the power house and the
office clerk amounted to $265. 1t
looked upon the face of the returns
from an official source as if the SUI
perintendence and trouble man had
only been charged up at $40. In fact
that was the only construction that
could be put on the face of the re-
corder's report of receipts and dis
bursements. The matter was called
to Mr.. Butterfield's attention by the
writer yesterday and he made an eX-
animation of the time checks and
postings in the recorders office and
it showed that the clerk posted
the check of the first trick man,
amounting to $50, in the column for
Improvements instead of mainten-
ance. This showed the total for
maintenance Cor operation) to be
$275 when it should have shown
S365. The writer regrets that this
occurred, but neither he nor the It'd
ings could be expected to go behind
the official returns. OF course, be-
ing merely in a segregation of ac-
counts and not in matter of amount
or side of account in posting, it did
not show up in the recorders bal
ance, and there was nothing to indi-
cate to the recorder that it was not
correct when he got out his monthly
balance sheet.

There are several basketball games
scheduled for the future, and inter
est in the game in this city bids fair
to exceed that of any past season,
There are at least five teams prac-
ticing in this city at present. The
city team, the Baracas the Meth
odists, the Polytechnics and the Ash
land high school team.
The Baracas are expecting return
games with the Central Point and
Medford teams which they have al
ready played and it is hoped to get at
least one of these games before New
Years. There will probably be
games between the local teams dur
ing the season, though so far some
of them have been playing each other
in practice.
There is also a good girls basket
ball team at the high school. Wheth-
er or not there is any other, girls
team at present in Ashland has not
been divulged. 1t may be that some
of them are planning to spring a sur
prise on their sisters of the high
school.

better impression upon the people,
IN view of past experiences as to the
cost of the system; and
Second, it would have given an OPP
portunity for other engineers, con-
tractors and others to verify the esti-
mates
AT this late date it is impossible
to do this before the election. The
Tidings made some effort to do so,
but could not on short notice get
sufficient data. The only item on
which there was data at hand was
the 2i-inch steel pipe which Mr. But
terrified estimates at $4.20 per foot
laid. Mr.. Roberts, who made the
plans for the enlargement of the wa
terwOrks system at the time the
$175, 900 bond issue was turned
down, under date of October, 1910,
quotes 24-inch steel pipe at $4.2O f.
o. b. Ashland, allowing over 81 per
foot for digging, hauling pipe, laying
and back filling. Mr.. Butterfield
stated to the writer that he planned
using lighter pipe as it was to run
from the main at the foot of Crowson
hill to the auxiliary plant at the low
er intake. AS to the cost of wooden
pipe, Mr.. Roberts report was not
! clear AS to the other items of cost.
machinery, installation, etc, it would
take time to get data and figures.
MIR. Butterfield states that he
would be willing to take the contract
and give bonds to do the work, eX-
elusive of the extensions to pole lines,
for the $4,000 1t would seem a
good stunt, if the bonds pass, to have
this done.
The writer for one heard c. w.
! Root quoted as approving the esti-
mate and asserting that it would not
injule the water plant. On being
told this, the writer expressed the
opinion that there would be few
votes against the bonds from those
/ knowing Mr.. Roots standing as an
engineer, if this were so. Mr.. Root
was asked as to the truth of the re-
port, and his answer is in signed
communication elsewhere in this is
sue.
Ashland tidings. [volume] (Ashland, Or.) 1876-1919, 1912-12-12
w. c. T. U. Service.

The w. c. T. U. will hold an all
day service in the Congregational
church Tuesday, December II, be-
ginning at 10 a. m. and continuing
throughout the day. This has been
custom with this organization for
many years past to hold a service
on election day, and so is no new
thing.
The program will be along Gus
tomary lines as in the past. The
public are invited to attend, either
to remain a short time or remain
through some period. The exercises
will be varied and carried on by some
fifteen representatives from various
churches and other organizations.
BY order of president.
