tion held in Portland on November

ed perfect score with the exception

Portland getting grade of 95 per
cent perfect The Toledo creamery
received a grade OF SO per cent Two
other creameries were in between the

Albany received "a 3-4 and Fritz
Kuecht of Portland received grade
Of "a " The Corvallis creamery was
fifth with grade of 80 per cent.
]. Swearingen, manager of the local
concern, is proud of this record and
well he should be. Lincoln county peo-
pie can well afford to demand this
local product and know they are get
ting quality for their money.
The score sheet of the local cream
cry was as follows:

Body-possible 25 per cent ......25
Color-possible Is per cent ....... 10
Salt-possiblee 10 per cent .......1 10

MAY FAIL TO REACH
STATE PRISON SUIT
BEFORE APRIL Is
CHINESE MURDER TRIAL SETS
DISTRICT COURT CALENDAR
BACK TWO WEEKS.

Helena, March 14-Although the
trial of the case Of the State of Mon
tana against Frank Conley, former
warden of the state penitentiary, de-
manding an accountig Of his stew
ardship, was relatively set for March
9th in the district court of Lewis
and Clark county, it now seems like
ly that the case will not be reached
before the middle of April.
The Conley matter, which is the
outcome of the long investigation of
prison affairs, instigated by Govern
or Dixon, was placed at the latter
end Of the cases set for trial during
the present jury term of the district
court, it being assumed that it could
be reached about March 9th.
Murder Trial Interferes
However, SO much more time has
been consumed in the trial of the
Chinese murder case, just brought to
conclusion, that it will throw the
court calendar back about two weeks
with the likelihood that the Conley
ease cannot be reached before April
18th
AS this is a case in equity, to be
GTIGu DeIOT0 the C0uTl WItiiOut d jury,
it will not be taken up until the con-
clusion Of all jury cases and not I'M
til the trial jury serving during the
present term shall have been dis
charged.
Pleadings Filed
All the pleadings in the case with
the exception Of the reply of the
state to the defendants answer, have
been filed in court. The reply, which
was completed and ready to Be fled
a week ago, has not been filed. due
to the absence from the city of At
tornev General w. D. Rankin, and
will not be filed until he has seen and
approved it. However, a copy Of this
proposed reply has been furnished
counsel for Mr.. Conley, with the I'M
derstanding that it will be subject to
any changes the attorney general
may deem advisable. It is general
in character and brings nothing new
into the case.
