To meet this contingency. various ex-
pedients were tried. First. an edict
compelled the Israelites to perform ar
duous labors. which It was hoped
would undermine their strength. On
the contrary. they seemed to flourish
increasingly with every burden. The
ncxt repressive measure was The edict
that every male child Of the Israelites
should he strangled at birth. But this
command was disregarded. the mid
wives claiming that they arrived too
late. The final resort was the royal
edlct that the lsraeites must drown
every newborn male infant. Failure
TO do this was made punishable
crime.

There is no end to the effort which

the management OF the Lincoln Chau.

the Pacific year ago and bring Hon.
Chas. H. Poole from his New Zealand
home TO this country to fill two hun.

The outcome proved that the move

the most popular lecturer on the
course. He lectured In only few
towns outside OF illinois. and his 70.
turn TO those few towns will be hailed
with Joy. In one OF these towns last
summer the superintendent Of schools
said Poole's night address was
worth thousand dollars to their

The fame OF this speaker was not
confined TO America alone, and last

approximately $4,000 and, if the city
must pay this amount, it means prac-
tically two mill tax upon the prop
erty in the city. Any taxpayer can
easily figure what amount of the total
he would be required to pay.
The above deductions are, of course,
conditional but they are well within
the thelm of the possible and some well
informed authorities seem to regard
them as by no means improbable
However, in order to preclude any de-
| termination of these question if pos
sible, City Attorney Carter who re-
fuses to divulge his opinion as to what
the results of the decision will be II
| allowed to stand, is preparing to ask
for a new trial and is now securing
matter for his argument in behalf OF
his petition.
1t is very probable that he will call
the attention of the court to a pos
sible error of its own. In referring
to the mistake in the description the
court says: The description is un-
certain and cannot be ascertained
from the notice. The notice does not
refer to any man or plat of the assess
ment district on file" The notice in
question appears on the minutes OF
the council meeting of Sept. 5, 1912
and was also published in the East
Oregonian for ten days. In part the
notice reads: "to be improved, in ac-
cordance with, and as shown in, the
provements of said portion of Jack
son Street prepared by Geary Kim
brell, City Surveyor, and filed with the
! City Recorder on the 4th day of Sep
tember, 1912, which plans and speci-
fications are hereby particularly re,
ferred to- The question then arises
What is a plan If it is not a map oil
a plat?"
The city attorney will also probably
argue that the mistake misled no one
for the boundaries of the district were
/ shown in the plans, were matter o1
common knowledge and were knowr
to all whose property was included.
Decision is Important.
The decision Is generally consider
ed by local attorneys as being one OF
the most important handed down by
the Oregon supreme court for some
time inasmuch as it practically settles
the question of whether or not a pat
ent on an article creates a monopoly
Far from being a victory for "the
common people over the Warren Con-
struction company" they declare ii is
a big triumph for Warren Bros. and
that it will mean many thousands OF
dollars to them.
The decision is eleven pages in
length and in part reads as follows:
1T does not appear from the testi-
mony that there was anything to pre-
vent any contractor who desired to dc
50 from having a plant installed and
from manufacturing the compound
upon exactly the same terms that the
Warren Construction company re-
uuired Perhaps it would have been
Improbable to have done so, but by
the same token it is frequently i'm

small contract in a town remote
from his place of business. When bids
are advertised for in any case the con-

The following opinions were secur-
ed today by Dudley Evans, on the
CTaffney- Bennett fight Tomorrow
might:
DR. Best-"Bennett looks to be a
sure loser. Gaffn ey has improved
both in his boxing and in a physical
sense over former battles.
Joe Guill-"Gaff should win on i'm
proved form and youth.
Mick Downey-Gaffney all the way.
Can't beat the Irish.
Bum mphrey-Bennett chances
look best but he might lose.
Bill Brown-Have seen these boys
box twice Bennett has best head
and should win on experience.
Ed Marsh-Jockey inside of ten
rounds
Mike Briggs-An even bet on Jock
aey on the long end on form and ex-
preference. Both boys are good.
Roy Ritner-Both boys look good.
Its an even bet.
Clark Cunningham-Looks even al
though I think Jockey has shade.
Ernest Wright-Jockey looks best
bet although it will be close
Roy Stewart-Gaffney carried my
money both times before and with
flis remarkable improvement should
battle the jockey to the bushes.
Charley Gritman-Don't care to ex-
press a choice 1 do think it will be
d tough one to pick a winner in.
Martin Anderson-Have seen both
former battles. With the claims of
Improved form for Gaffney by his
supporters it looks to be a dandy
scrap.
Guy Matloek-Have seen all OF
these boys bouts here. Gaff looks to
have most stamina
N. F. Peters-Gaff is younger and
can stand the route better.
Jack Basset-Bennett should win
on experience. But Gaff is sure a
game boy.
Ike Cohn-Billy Gaffey is as good
a boy as have ever seen considering
his short experience. He has good
punch and can take it like veteran.
Tommy Gaffney-Have never seen
the kid battle. He has game blood
in him and if Jockey could not beat
him when he was an amateur | don't
see how he can be figured to win.
