Chapin's railroad commission bill has passed both houses of the Legis lature and the Governor will probably allow It to become a law. It passed the house Monday by a unanimous vote. There was only one dissenting vote lu the Senate, Wednesday, when it passed that body. Whealdon, of Wasco alone voted "no." While the Governor is not satisfied with the bill, for the reason that it provides for appointment of the com mission by a state board instead of by the executive, the bill is in all par ticulars the measure he has favored, so it is not thought that he will veto it because it is unsatisfactory upon this one point.

The lads from Newberg put up a good game, but were outclassed in every particular by the Dallas boys. For the first five minutes after the game was called, it looked as though the contest would be close. Then Fenton, Dallas' husky center, broke the spell by throwing a basket, and this was followed by other baskets thrown in quick succession by Craven and Launer. The score stood 23 to 3 at the end of the first half. The game continued on about the same lines during the second half. Sometimes Newberg would get the ball, but would either throw It out of bounds or lose It to the sturdy Dallas guards, Arnold and Morton, who would pass It back to the Dallas basket. Frank Grannls, of Salem, acted as referee. His decisions were satis factory at all times, and neither team had any complaint to make of his work.
