Hubbard Men
Recover $500
In Civil Suit

Suit for the recovery of $500
alleged to have been forcefully ex-
torted from his wife was won by
Koehne Of Hubbard from j. r..
White, who claimed that the mon
ey was paid to him with the per-
mission of Keehne whom he states
assaulted and made improper pro-
posals to Mrs. White.
Testimony in the case started
Friday afternoon In the circuit
court before Judge Kelly with
Koehne, who stated that some
time after the alleged assault was
made he was met by White who
threatened to kill him II he ever
entered his house again, and that
h was going to sue him for $4,000
and have him placed in the peni-
tentiary If he did not pay $500 at
once. The witness stated that
Mrs. Koehne later visited Whites
and was forced to sign a check for
$500, forging her husbands name
in doing so. Her action was not
discovered until Koehne made a
trip to the state bank of Hubbard.
He then started suit for the recov-
cry of the money from White, who
his attorneys charged with having
tried to obtain money by extortion.
The verdict of the Jury was rem
dered in one hour after the final
were made Saturday.

Strenuous protest against the

letter to H. A. Hinshaw, general
freight agent of the Southern Pa
cific company.

Iiams writes. go The best rate
that the dried fruit men have in
Oregon to date is $166h. It
stands to reason without argument
that this is not only basely dis
cfiminatory and preferential to
California but hurtful in the ex-
treme to the fruit production in
the state of Oregon.
eve are very much surprised
that the Southern Pacific line
which traverses Oregon from north

Tried fruit section should counte-
nance such a difference in rates,

The lands to which the states

fined almost entirely to the beds

that the state has mailed to fur
nish sufficient proof of the swan

B y N unn
State Engineer Says
Temporary Routings
Safe, Sure, and Well
Defined

Complaints registered by tour
lists anent the lack of proper de-
tour signs and the condition of de-
tour roads are not justified by the
facts, according to State Engineer
Mum who returned today after
five days spent in touring the
roads between Salem and the Cali
fornia state line.
All detours on state roads cover
ed by Mum, he declares, are prop
erly and conspicuously marked
and the detours are passable in eV-
cry instance.
II do not mean to say that the
detours are to be classed as good
roads," Num- explained. "lf they
were good roads we would improve
the detours rather than the main
roads. But they afford safe and
sure passage around construction
work and certainly allow no room
for Just complaint when it is con-
sidered that these detours are
merely temporary provisions ror
passage around permanent con-
struction work. And as TO signs"
he added, there is absolutely no
excuse for any motorist missing a
detour unless the sign has been
purposely misplaced Dy some prac-
tical joker as is sometimes the
case"
Mum states that consia. ra. le
difficulty is experienced with
boys who find mTsh sport in NOV
ing detour signs and then watch
ing the unsuspecting motorist Turn
off onto the wrong road.
Considerable difficulty is also
experienced with motorists WHO
refuse to heed the detour signs
posted along the highway. In one
instance which he mentioned,
three automobiles drove around a
barricade on which was posted a
conspicuous detour sign, only to
be turned back when they came to
the construction work a half mile
farther on. In another instance a
tourist coming up from the south
ignored detour sign and ran into
the "hot stuff" ON paving job for
which the foreman of construction
proceeded to administer a ver bal
chastisement punetuated with
some rather emphatically pointed 4
opinions of the driver. This tour
Ist, who was clearly at fault, Mum
insists, proceeded on his way pro-
Oregon as one of the
'meanest states in which he had
ever toured"
81 do not mean to convey the
that our engineers are
not sometimes at fault" Num-
concluded, but | do say that in a
great majority of cases the fault
les with the tourists themselves
many of whom wilfully ignore our
Efforts to direct them on the prop
II way. Our engineers are doing
'verything in their power to aid
he tourists but they have other
work to do too" II

Insurance Firms
Organize to Fight
Compensation law

own figures Please bear in mind
that the area Of Massachusetts is
small and the Industries compact.
Both California and Oregon are
large states and in each state lum-
bering is one OF the principal in
dustries. 1t takes a longer time to
obtain reports and to make pay
ments. Under the circumstances
one would expect to find much
better results in Massachusetts,.
But what are the facts?
THE percentage Of cases in
which the first payment had not
been made within six weeks are
as follows: Liberty Mutual 20 per
cent; Oregon state fund 1879 per
cent; California state fund 22.1
per cent. Oregon in spite of it's
large area, had better record and
California almost as good as the
Liberty Mutual.
Now take the percentage of
cases where first payment had not
been made in ten weeks: Liberty
Mutual, 6.3 per cent; the Oregon
fund, 3.9 per cent; the California
fund, 6.5 per cent. Again Oregon
has a much better record and Cali
fornia equally as good as the Lib
erty.
There you have a fair test, it
seems to me, and it shows that the
best state fund has better record
as to promptness of payment than
the very best insurance company.

Run; McKenna Plays
Star Game - Legion
SuccumbS to Keene

Salem fans held their breath
in the first inning when the Am
erican Legion nine lammed out
enough hits to net them two runs
in the game between that organ
ization of oPrtland, and the Sem
ators played yesterday at Oxford
park. In the bottom frame Of the
same inning, the excited speeta-
tors gave their first, last and on
ly yowl of delight when McKen-
ma romped up the home path for
Salems first score and Hayes, af-
ter a daring steal of two bases,
reached the plate. After that the
game was a bore, and ended to
. in favor of Salem.
The American Legion boys
couldn't get on and ride. ONeil
in left field seemed to have
weights in his shoes and when
he did get under anything it was
usually a safe bet that he drop
PED it. Donaldson, made a couple
of wild pitches with men on third
which were responsible for two
scores made by the local team.
Garner at first base, played a
good steady game and did some
hitting, but with Keene, supsti-
tuted for Knudson, at the mound
in the fourth inning the battle
of the Legionaires was nil.
AS far as playing went the Sa-
lem nine worked well, though
keene was a little wild. MeKen-
ma played a star game and was
for a couple of dou-
BILE plays and a bunch of regular
hits. Edwards knocked the only
home run of the game, winning
all the prizes in sight. Knudson,
