the county treasurer the right to des-
ignate county depositories, with the
approval of the county court, the
banks to bid against each other for
the right to handle the funds.
AS a bill along similar lines will
come before the legislature for ac-
ton, committee of three was ap-
pointed by President Cleeton to go
to Salem and confer with the legisla-
tors in this regard. The committee
consists of County Judge E. c. Judd
of Clatsop county, Judges V. P. Moses
