(Note by our expert.-Polo is town
in Illinois half way between Chicago
and the Mississippi. The official state
ment that the Wheaton team beat the
Onwentsia team in a game of polo is
obviously an error. The telegram
should read that the Wheaton team
beat the Onwentsia team ''at' polo.
The nature of the game is thereby left
in doubt, but was probably bridge or

JUDGE PHELPS DID
NOT SANCTION DEAL
Circuit Judge Testified Before Grand
Jury He Could Recall No Such
Advice to Old Court.

In his oratorical pleas for vindica-
ton and votes. ex-Judge GnlIand has
been making free use Of the name
OF Judge G. w. Phelps who was dis
trict attorney when the UmatiIls
bridge deal was pulled off
Before the grand jury that investi.
gated the case two years ago Judge
Phelps testified he could recall moth
ing OF having ever been asked any
advice regarding the UmatiIIa bridge
and could not recall having ever Civ
en- any advice upon the subject. He
said he had asked the old court to
make its requests in writing when
ever IL wished anything Of him and
had informed them he would always
reply in writing. He testified he had
no record Of any inquiry or OF any
opinion given regarding the Umatilla
bridge. So IL he gave them any ad-
vice they should have produced his
written opinion.
Furthermore. Judge Phelps testi-
fled before the grand jury that II he
expressed any verbal opinion to the
'tA NtAIA ne merely lOl0 tuem they
could proceed under the section OF the
old law regarding building bridges by
a county under a superintendent.
Now listen. Gentle Reader. such an
opinion as that would be a very diff. /
ferent thing from telling the court
TO proceed as they did at Umatilla. I
The point Is that in building the
Umatilla bridge the old court did not
have the county do the work itself
under a superintendent. The bridge
was built outright by a contract, for
a complete bridge. erected in place
That contract is still on file in the
court house and ii shows a direct VI
olation OF the law
so Judge Gilliiand has no license to
hide behind Judge Phelps in trying 10
excuse his bridge deal.
The information as 10 Judge
Phelps testimony before the grand
jury has been thoroughly confirmed
by this newspaper.
