the RECALL election Tuesday in this cOun-
ty.
The 2-to-1 vote against County Judge
James Watson and the 3-to-l against
Commissioner Archie Philip surprised
the most ardent adherent Of the recall,
and the defeat is attributed here to a
campaign waged by the AgitatOr, free
lance paper, that had been after the
county court for several years; the
Evening Record of Marshfield and the
Coos Bay Times, also Of Marshficld.
The main charge against the county
officials was extravaganza ana waste

ing regular salaried employment for the

BERRIES BRINGS SUIT
Phez Company Takes Action
Against ]. {. Cunsley To
Enforce Contract.

With a present market price OF B
cents pound, growers Of loganDerries
are facing Il rather peculiar situation.
And this is especially true Of those who
have contracted for three cents pound.
And with the present price of labor
and the extra figure that will have to
be paid for picking, the grower with
three cents a pound contract on hand
is facing serious situction, according
to the views recently eJ pressed by men
familiar with the loganberry interests.
Several efforts have been made in
the way of compromise whereby the
grower with three.cent contract on
hand may be ableto at least be paid
enough to break even, while he is look
ing an eight cents a pound offer in the
face.
Company Sues Gunsley.
The Pheasant Friut Juice company
filed suit today against j. e. Gunsley,
who owns loganberry tract in Holly
wood addition to Salem for failure to
deliver his 1918 loganberries as con
tracted.
The complaint alleges that the de-
fendant contracted the 1916, 1917, 1918,
1919 and 1920 crop for three cents a
pound from three.acre tract Of logan
berries, estimated at 10000 pounds an.
nually, and that the 1918 crop was not
delivered.
The contract reads that MI. 6unsley
shall deliver the berries to the warehouse
Of the Phez company, the buyer to be
the sole Judge as to marketable condi.
tion. It is specified in the contract that
so per cent Of the purchase price is to
be paid on delivery Of the berries, 2S
per cent on the following October l and
the balance on the first of January
following.
Upon failure Of the grower TO fulfill
his part of the contract, it is stipulated
as follows: ''That the buyer may re
cover of the seller damages for sucf
breach, and its hereby stipulated anC
agreed that the sum Of 1h cents .
pound shall be held to be and fixed al
liquidated damages. " 1t is also agreed
that in case Of suit for recovery Of dam
ages, there shall be reasonable attor
ncy fee.
Complaint Is Answered.
Answering the complaint, Mr.. Guns
ley admits the contract signed July II
1915, contracting his berries for fivi
years at three cents a pound. Also tha
he performed all the conditions Of thu
1916 and 1917 contract but that th'
Pheasant Fruit company broke the con
tract in not paying him on January J
1918, for the balance due on has 1871
contract.
Also that be had made repeated dc
mands on the company for the balane'
due him but that the company wouli
not pay. Then be gave the company no
tice, he alleges, that he would be n
longer bound by the contract.
In the suit filed today, the Phcasan
Fruit Juice company asked for damage
Of $3.50 from Mr.. Gunsley with $50 al
torney's fees for failure to deliver II
