Ell PASO, Aug. 26.-The plot of
Mexicans to cross the Rio Grande and
swarm into Texas had for one of its
objects the release of Huerta, now
held at Fort Bliss. The plans of the
Mexicans are believed to have been
crushed by the speedy military prep
arations which were made here, but

lowers of Huerta, Orozco and Car

.COUE. : 1NISSION
VACANCY CHOICE TO
Be JOINT AGREEMENT
SELECTION MUST BE MADE BY
MARSH AND COCKBURN De-
CLARES OPINION.

That the appointment of a man to
the vacant commissionership in this
county rests jointly with County
Judge Marsh and Commissioner Cock
burn and not with the county Judge
alone is the substance of an opinion
from the office Of the attorney gen.
eral Of Oregon.
The attorney generals opinion was
sought by District Attorney steiwer at
the request Of Judge Marsh who
wished to be sure of the law in the
case. In response to the inquiry the
following telegram was received by
Mr., Steiwer last evening.
Salem, Ore, Aug 25.
Hon. Frederick Steiwer,
Pendleton, Oregon.
Judge and commissioner appoint
commissioner Russell versus Crook
county, 146 Pacific, S96.
J. A. BENJAMIN,
Asst. Attorney General.
The district attorney today inform
ed Judge Marsh Of the opinion re-
ceiyed but Mr.. Steiwer himself has
not vet given his own opinion in
formal manner. He wishes to look
up the ruling more fully and will
probably advise Judge Marsh on the
subject tomorrow.
According to Judge Marsh he ex-
poets to heed the advice Of the Of
ficial attorneys on the subject. He
has never been fully satisfied that he
had the authority to make the ap-
pointment by himself He has also
had in mind to consult Commissioner
Cockburn on the subject, regardless
of the law, so if requested to do so
will be following a course not ma.
terially different from what he has
had in mind.
The county court convenes a week
from yesterday and it is possible an
appointment to the vacancb may be
made at that time.
The Crook county case cited by the
assistant attorney general is not iden-
tfcal with the case here but the ruI-
ing of the supreme court holds that
the commissioners as we'll as the
Judge compose the county court
when convened for transacting coun.
ty business. In the ruling Judge
Mcbride says that if the constitution
had intended the commissioners
merely to sit with the judge it
would have been just as effective had
it been ordered that the county judge
sit with two joints of stove pipe.

of the street committee. other steps
taken in the street improvement
