Total amount in banks SPA, ,129. .09
 We found that both the county clerk and the circuit clerk had made due report for tax on instruments, and filed treasurer's receipt for same.
 Just as we had about completed our report, Commissioner Houck, who has had the disbursement of ing the jail, made a complete re- port of disbursements, showing na- ture of same, and showing re- ceipts and vouchers for all amounts. We find that up to the present term, October 1st, 1919, he had paid out the sum of $9,01116, out of a total of $9,377.40, leaving balance in the Bank of Marianna of $336.24 to the credit of the commissioner Judging from the appearance of the structure and the work done, we are constrained to believe that the money has been most judiciously expended. The county judge tells us that he is of the opinion that it will take about $2,000.00 more to complete the building, and that the total cost will be that much more than was contemplated when the work was commenced. However, judging from the appearance, we are of the opinion that it has been money well expended, and that the interest of the county has been safeguarded in the construction.
 As required by law, we listed all of the cancelled county. and school warrants, and in conjunction with the county judge, burned them. The list of which we herewith file with the circuit clerk.

district is out, being behind with its denository. the Lee County Ma tional Bank, in the sum of $1,611.- O7. and with only $72.29 to its credit in the Bank of Marlanna. For further expenditures during the coming year, we presume the .:str.ct will have to rely upon the collection of the commutation tax now about due. We found the books and accounts in the hands of the secretary well kept, and re- ceipts for all amounts paid out. We do think, however, that the Board of Commissioners should exercise closer supervision over the expenditures of the funds. In conclusion, your Honor, we re- turn thanks to the efficient ard accommodating county clerk, E. W. King, for assistance and informa- tion rendered. All of which is re- spectfully submitted,

said Secretary John Scott, Of the rail

understanding must be reached be-
tween employees and employers in all

And now the city, instead Of getting it's
gravel for 65 cents a yard, is paying 90
cents for the rough gravel, $1.00 for con-
create gravel river run and $3.50 per
cubic yard for sand or screenings. There
are at present two gravel companies in
Salem and according to a competent au-
thority, while they may not be breaking
any law by combining prices, the same
authority has noted that each have the
same prices and that each has establish
ed zones for hauling in which prices are
precisely the same. While the Salem
Sand & Gravel company and the Oregon
Gravel company, both of Salem, have a
uniform price of 80 cents for gravel TO
sell the city, it is understood that Al
bany has municipal gravel pit and that
its gravel costs about one-half the price,
charged the city of Salem. The price
of all kinds of gravel has gone up 25
cents yard during the past two
months.

But the city fathers arose in their wrath

Gold Star Covered
With Gold by Troop z

Troop fired her last shot yes
terday when Scoutmaster d. f.
Rumpf paid twenty dollars in gold
to the treasurer of the Soldiers Me-
mortal Fund. The money covered
the gold star of Jacob Smith, 400
Walnut street, who died from an at
tack of spinal. meningitis on his re-
turn to camp from a furlough.
Troop 2 is the first troop to an
swer the last call of the war. This
troop has not always been the first
in every undertaking, but that was
owing to the fact that we went
along quite while without a scout
master, but nevertheless No. held
UP it's own during the war and we
emerged from war service with
many medals and other honors to
our credit. Now since we have an
efficient scoutmaster we expect to
come out on top of the heap every
time.
Some may wonder at the fact that
Troop 2 covered a star belonging to
one outside of the troop, but we can
answer this by saying that our treas
ury is substantial enough to cover
the three stars of our former scout
masters and we would have done so
very willingly if they had not al
ready been covered by others before.

Troop No. z Passes
Second Class Exams

Under the leadership of Scoutmas-
ter Rumpf. Troop No. 2 hiked to the
mountains above Rockville. The hike
proved to be a very successful one,
as everyone present passed their out
door second class examinations which
consist of a tracking a mile in IL
minutes, making a fire without paper
using only two matches and cooking.
Troop No. 2 is going through the
process of reorganization with
bang. First of all we have cracker
Jack troop committee. We are not
afraid to state that our troop COM
mittee is the best that ever represent
ed any troop in the city. This COM
mittee consists of Leon Lowengard,
chairman, Eli Goldstein, Louis Schiff-
man, ex-lieutenant U. S. A. ]. Fried
berg and Henry Levine, ex-soldier.
Not only does our troop have the
best troop committee, but also we
have the best Deputy Commissioner
of the city. We are very proud to
have DR.. ]. H. Eager lead our district
and we appreciate very deeply what
he has done to make our troop a
great success.
The Scoutmaster has registered 32
names on the troop charter and we
hope before the month is over We will
have at least 25 second-class scouts.
