ADAMS SUES FOR A
REHEARING OF DIVORCE CASE

REHEARING OF DIVORCE CASE
Edward S. Adams, who filed prae-
cipe for 100000 suit against Robert
Mccormick for ''trespass," took an
other court action Sept. 4. He filed
through his attorneys, Haight,
Brown & Haight, a writ of error
granted by Judge Edward o. Brown
OF Appellate Court, calling for a re-
hearing of his divorce suit. His then
wife, Annie l. Adams, asked for di-
Vorce early in March, without ali
mony, and Judge Denis Sullivan
granted the decree March 6. Mrs. Ad-
ans and her sisters husband, DR..
Arthur A. Small, testified to Edward
S. Adams being habituaIly drunk.
Nearly every day for twelve years he
was in a enar stupor from drink,
would make sudden, silly, prOfane re-
marks at table, and was so nervous
food fell from his mouth repeatedly,
they testified. Adams did not appear.
Aug 1, w. H. Haight filed a depo-
sition that the certificate Of evidence
was missing from the vaults of the
superior court clerk on June 1 and
again on July 9. A letter from Haight
to Alexander Powell, who had been
understood to be attorney for Mrs.
Adams got reply from Powell that
Charles Hamil might be liable to
throw light" on where missing evil
dence was. Aug. 1, Haight, Brown &
Haight notified Powell & Hamil that
on Aug. 3 they would appear before
Judge Goodwin to ask court order
for restoration of certificate of evil
dence. The document then appeared
in the court files.

DO We Want A COURT HOUSE WHERE THE

induced to go up over the hills in order
that It may avoid the present County
Seat OF Malheur County, the lowly
situated townsite of the City of Vale.
The last experience Of Vale In the
matter of high water was not occas-
ioned by an ice gorge but simply
matter of high water in flood condi-
tions, and now since the construction
of a concrete dam across Malheur
River less than a mile below the City
of Vale the same amount of water
experienced would render at least a
foot more water over the townsite OF
Vale, or In other words with the same
amount of water had in their last
flood, would raise the high water
mark, in the City Of Vale at least one
foot, due to the fact that this dam
reduces the fall to that point Of the
Malheur River.

To the Voters Of Malheur County

While It is customary in the con-
struction OF any permanent improve
ment to look well to the foundation
upon which the structure or improve
ment is to be built, In the present
county seat location is a pertinent
question and one OF vital interest to
the people Of Malheur County, and
should be carefully considered BY every
voter before he casts his ballot.
II is a fact well known and not
questioned that the course of the NAL
heur River is very uncertain, has no
permanent channel whatever, but will
slough off from one side and build up
on the other side all the way from
its mouth to the canyon. The con-
dition of the Malheur River at Vale,
has changed to some extent since our
last big ice gorge, and we have been
favored since the construction of the
steel bridge by escaping what has
actually happened several times In
Vale, the overflow of the Malheur
River covering the townsite OF Vale
and rendering II possible navigate the
streets entirely around our present
court house, in row boat. and since
II is a fact that this condition has ex-
listed in Vale. In recent years In fact
