Judge Webster Now Out Of
Office But Making Plans

Judge Daniel Webster today turned
over the office of justice of the peace
for the Salem district to Glenn Unruh,
who will conduct the office in rooms
over the Hartman jewelry store, State
and Liberty streets.
Justice Unruh will find docket of
lao cases to occupy his attention from
time to time. Many of the cases have
been hanging fire for several years and
will probably never be called. How
ever, quite a number are live ones and
it is more than probable that Judge I'M
rub will be called upon to dispore Of
several this week.
Although Judge Webster is drawing
near TO his Sjth yesr-having been born
April II, 1885, he docsn t feel that sim
ply because ne is retiring from the Of
flee of justice of the peace, that he IS
ready to quit active life. In fact, Judge
has several plans in view and while ad-
iusting himself to his now life, will con
tinue to make headquarters at his Of
flee for the next month.
About the time Judge Webster was
born, Daniel Webster was one of the
prominent men of the United States
and it was after the famous orator that
Judge Webster was named. Hence
when it came time for the judge to
vote, he east his lot with the young
Republican party, voting for the first
time for John G. Fremont, the first Re-
publican candidate for president. And

HOSPITAL QUESTION
DECIDED AT MEETING
TOMORROW EVENING
Executive Committee To Make
Report Of Its Findings At
That Time.

Now that the state board of control
has ordered the Salem Hospital to move
out of the hospital building belonging
to the state and that if it does not get
out, that Attorney General Brown
shall begin ejeetment proceedings, the
executive committee of the Salem hos
pital is facing a serious proposition.
According to A. A. Lee, executive
secretary, the board has been doing
everything possible recently to find
adequate quarters and have already
several buildings under consideration.
The executive committee. consisting
of. Henry W. Meyers, F. G. Deckebach
and William McGilchrist, Jr., with A.
A. Lee as executive secretary, will
make report of what the committee
has done at a meeting to be called for
Tuesday evening at the Commercial
club.
1t is felt that from the several build
ings in prospect and the absolute ne
cessity of getting out of the Salem hos
pital building at once, that the board
in charge of the affairs Of the Salem
hospital will find one that can be used
at least temporarily.
While the men in charge of the af'
fairs of the Salem hospital have known
for the past year that the state would
insist upon possession of its property
yet there has been no unanimous action
and matters have been permitted to
drift along until now the board is fac
ing the necessity of taking quick ac.
ton, as it is felt the state means bus.
ness and viii not put up longer with
delays. 1t is well known that at times
members of the board have not acted
in harmony for the past year.
