The state seeks to appeal from a trial court order sustaining defendant's demurrer to a uniform traffic citation and complaint. An order which merely sustains a demurrer and does not dismiss or set aside the complaint is not an appealable order under ORS 157.081 and ORS 138.060, which provides in part: "The state may take an appeal from the circuit court to the Court of Appeals from: "(1) An order made prior to trial dismissing or setting aside the accusatory instrument; "* * * * *." This was also the rule under former ORS 138.060. See State v. Cloran, 233 Or. 400, 374 P.2d 748, 377 P.2d 911, 378 P.2d 961 (1963); State of Oregon v.
