of the amount due him for his ser
vices.
The second or supplemental con-
tract covering the additional 10000
acres and calling for payment of the
additional $4,000, the court declares
to be ultra wires the board of direc-
tors and therefore null and void.
The court then passes to consider
alton of other expenditures by the
board of directors and attacked by
the plaintiffs and decides as follows:
/. That the action Of the board
lin voting themselves compensation
in excess of So per day was unlawful
and warrants for the excess amounts
should not be paid by the district.
2. That transportation and ex-
penses paid by the directors and their
employees in attendance upon con-
ventions and irrigation congresses
and not in the actual performance Of
official duty were not legitimate
claims against the district and should
not be paid by it.
3. That the expenses OF picnics
and celebrations are not legitimate
charges to be added on the district
and that expenses of that nature will
be disallowed.
4. That expenses Of circulating
petitions, attorneys fees and other
charges incurred by the district prior
to its organization are not proper OBJ
LEGATIONS of the district and should
not be paid out Of its funds.
s. That the action OF the board
of directors in voting $4,000 out OF
the funds of the district to defeat this
suit and other pending litigation
wherein they we're defendants was a

palpable abuse of discretion, if dis
erehonary, and that their action was
void and cannot burden the district.
6. That counsel performing any
actual service for the district as such
have their claims to be settled with
the existing board, or failing in that
they have access to a court of law to
enforce their just and legitimate de-
mandS.
Finally the court holds that, save
as to demands that are not legitimate
claims against the district as indica-
ted, there is no sufficient ground to
enioin the collection of the district
tax.
This memorandum opinion does
not constitute the final findings and
decree in this cause, but is sum-
mary of what the final decision of the
court will be.

Senator Charles Hall of Marshfield,
who has long been mentioned as one
Of the strongest prospective candl-
dates for Governor, has announced
definitely that he will enter the guber'
material race. This announcement has
been expected by his friends for some
time. as strong pressure has been
brought to bear upon the Coos and
Curry Senator since his name was
first mentioned as a prospective can
didate.
He was born on a farm in Jefferson
County. Pennsylvania, and came to
Oregon in 1901. Shortly thereafter he
began his business career as clerk
in a drug store at Clatskanie, Oregon.
Eventually he acquired ownership of
the drug store, sold it and bought a
drug store in Hood River, where he
lived until 1914. In Hood River his
ability for organization asserted IL
self. During the eight years he spent
in that town, he was one of the build
ers Of the telephone system there, the
Oregon Washington Telephone Com
pany, and built the Central Building,
Oregon Hotel and the Hall Building,
and owned and planted number Of
orchards in the Hood River Valley. He
also served as Director and President
Of the Hood River Commercial Club.
His activities were transferred to
Coos Bay in 1914 and Immediately
thereafter a number of new organiza-
tions in that district came into being.
He organized the Coos and Curry
Telephone Company of which he is
President today; organized the Bank
Of Southwestern Oregon in 1917 and
was President Of that institution until
1921.
Outside of his business activities in
Marshfield. he soon became one of the
prominent citizens Of that district. He
was one Of the original promoters OF
the State Highway program. He was
elected Senator from the Eighth Sena
torial District comprising Coos ant
Curry counties in 1920.
Senator Hall soon became one Of
the leaders in statewide politics as
fearless exponent Of the highway pro
gram. As a Legislator he played
prominent part in all important legis
lation during both sessions in 1921
He risked censure from the exponent
Of the 1925 Exposition Bill when h
refused to listen TO any proposed in
roads into the road funds for the pur
pose Of financing the Fair. Halls uI
deyiating course in this latter actiol
brought forth the highest praise fror
all parts Of the State.
Since his debut into statewide pol
tics, the leadership in various nor
political movements has gravitate
naturally to him He is member
the Oregon Land Settlement Commi
sion and served for three years a
President Of the Oregon State Chan
Der Of Commerce and 10 now a directt
OF that organization.
Friends Of Senator Hall proclail
him as a natural leader, and point wit
pride to his record Of achievements
public and private life. Others co
cede that his Judgment is sound al
admit that no outside pressure or 10
rolling can swerye him from any pr
gram or movement to which he h
dedicated himself
Mr.. Hall was married in 1906
Portland to Ann English. They ha
three children, two boys thirteen a
seven. one girl nine.

GIVE THE FAcTS-(St Paul Daily News, July 24.)-
Railroad executives issuing statements about the strike
situation would in opinion, much deeply impress
the public mind they endeavored tell facts and truth
We have at hand statement given by the western
presidents committee public relations which there
this quotation, as well others equally untenable:
The situation is what better in eastern territory
than elsewhere but railways report increasing
numbers of men returning work, and of them
Port the movement of trains normal"
Undoubtedly those responsible for such declaration
are OF the opinion that it will develop public sentiment
II their favor Our szeup OF the matter is that the
way to assure fair popular Judgment to tell facts and
then let conclusions be formed
In view OF what is plainly observable we are at loss
to understand how any broad statements such as quoted
above will be taken seriously With 247 trains
cancelled throughout the country with local service from
St Paul to White Bear Saltwater Tayors Falls reduced
to minimum, with coal shortage impending with
freight embargos talked Of with railroad yards and shops
almost deserted with nearly all trains delayed We would
be interested in knowing the basis upon which the west
presidents committee figures here ist an Improvement
in the strike situation.
The truth OF the whole matter of course is that rail-
roads, right confronted with as serious condi-
ton they have ever faced in their history and most of
It.
Railroad executives will advance themselves in COM
mon estimation if they appreciate this fact and decide to
let the public know precisely what they are up against and
how the situation looks in the light of truth

Columbus of Today
By Richard Lloyd Jones

Amundsen recently sailed from Seattle to be-
across the north pole.
What's the use, you wonder. Man has already
been to the north pole and there wasn't anything
there but lot of cold weather It's lonely place.
Why go again? -
Columbus was jeered when he sailed against the
whole worlds unbelief He set out to find new
seas. To his own amazement he found new shores
Even when he returned, TO tell his tale wise men
declared the venture interesting but what's the
use the new found land was so far away no on$
would ever go there.
Recentlysome mountain climbers seeking TO
set foot the "roof of the world" ascended tfe
unexplored attitudes of Mt. Everett High up. in
the Himalayas they found vast plateaus rich IN
soil with forests and lakes and grasses such as e
found in the north tier of American States. These
were not little pocket spots in the mountains but
a vast region that would measure out Minnesota
and Montanas IN
But what's the use of it all? We say, we [
get there. Mile high precipices prevent.
The Legislature of New York came within tyhc
or three votes of refusing to grant the Delawafe
and Hudson Company the right to build a railroad
because it would scare the horses. But it asths
railroad and not the horse that made possible this
great nation of homogeneous people more than
three thousand miles long x,
They jeered at Fultons boat, at moves! thky
crieds To their amazement it moved up the river
When the first steel ship was launched foolish
folks went down to see it sink. The crowd saw
only the iron hull they knew iron sinks. The<fIf-
ventor the air in the iron hull he knew th air
would float.
The world today is full of out of the way places
which tomorrow will be as much part of the busy
world as the shores Columbus found
AeropIanes will lift us up into the MINES,
and the Montanas of the Himalayas Rich
will be there, towns, colleges, cities like Bi IN

versation around the whole world. 1t is going tc

Now scientists talk of sending heat waves tha

but whole Australias where Amundsen is gon,
