In spl'o of this, however, tho be lief persists here that Hill Interests nre back of tho P. G. W. This belief Is strengthened by the fact that Por-( ter Bros., known to be close to the; Hill people, hnvo recently acquired i lcrgo holdings In tho Sluslnw conn-, try, nnd nre now making extensive purchases of burnt-over timber In! this district. A condemnation suit i filed In the Circuit court by the Pa cific Great Western against Porter Bros., is known to be morely a friend ly suit brought for the purpose of j securing n conn runng on uounun rles. Within the Inst week agents of the Oregon Electric hnve entered tho field from tho Eugene end, nnd are rnpld ly securing rlght-of-wny to tho North west In tho direction of Albany. In addition to a number of rlght-of-wny deeds from land owners through whoso property the lino will pnss, deeds were filed on Wednesday for three blocks of property In Junction City, presumably to bo used as yards.

Oregon University Appropria tion Referendum Case Brings C; Fraud Evidence. PORTLAND, Ore., Oct. 10. The hearing n the enso In vol v ng the Ore gon University referendum petitions, which opened hero Wednesday, was discontinued "Saturday, tb be re-opened In Salem, October 24th. Me.in whllo the nttorneya for the tho Stite will compnrc the pciltlons with tho registrations 1 st In Multnomah Coun ty, nnd will otherwise prepare to meet the case that has been developed by the University counsel. The lr.ct testimony wns simply more of the snmc ev deuce that hns jeeu piled up during tho pnst few days, Including that of ninny citizens who swore that their nnmes lintl been for ged, or they nnd signed under the ic prefentnt mi that the petit. on would help tho University get Its money, rr Hint It was a measure for a municipal paving plant. How eas'ly this lat ter class were dupitl, and how many mny not hnve kno..n whnt t'.uy vero signing, Is Indicated by the fact that fully live thousand signatures arc n blnnk pages, wh ch have no petition or other printed matter on them. Among the witnesses wns Hon. Ben Selling, whoso name had been writ ten In one of the petitions, testified thnt h's father, whose signature Also appeared on tho petition, died before tho petition wns circulated. The lawyers for the University state that on nccount of the limited funds nt their commnnd, there ore thousands of names that appear bad that cannot bo investigated. Practic ally nil the Investigation has been tho work of Portlnnd circulators, who op erated here, at ABtorla and the Dalles. In Astcrla, n circulator hung his peti tions on tho wnll of a saloon, bought drinks for the crowd, and naked "'ho boys" to sign, which they did wii'lo ho went out on the street. When he came back, tho sheets being filled up, he hung up another petition, which was later tilled In. At Tho Dalles nn old c ty directory was used, and names forged to the petitions wcro of men dead for ninny yenrs. A prominent citizen and nn old resident, on rending over the list of ono hundred nnmes, could not mnko out nny logal voters. Instances havo been shown where c'rculntors asked who lived at tho houses, nnd upon Information signed tho nnmes, thus saving tho voters tho trouble.

Mr. McClaln Is not only an enthtis ast on tho pedigreed stock but Is also, perhaps, one of the meet expert horticulturists In being able to distinguish absolute varieties In the fruit district. Mr. McClaln can tU 'every variety by the serration In tro leaf nnd Is spending considerable of I his time In going over the different orchards picking out odd varieties. "I bol'evo tho pedigreed apple tree will be in demand by intense apple growers,'" said Mr. McClaln last night. "It was found necessary to have podlgreed animals to insure the pure strains nnd It Is apparently just ns important to have thoroughbred fruit If you please.
