Miss Isabel Whitby Her
Funeral at the Family Home
Yesterday.
The funeral of Miss Isabel Whit
by occurred from the family borne
near Willamett. Grange ball yes
terday afternoon at two o'clock.
Mieb Whitby died about noon Tues
day after a lingering illness. The
operation eix months ago in a Port
land hospital for removal of a
tumor, is familiar history to all the
county. It , was not a successful
operation, because vital organs and
I ligaments were so involved that
complete removal was impossible.
'With great fortitude, however, the
young woman maintained ins un
equal straggle, and for six months
subsequently survived a fate that
physicians thought at times could
not extend beyond the ordeal of
!the terrible opera' ioD. 1
Three weeks ago, Miss Whitby
was taken to Portland for further
treatment, and after a few days,
was brought home, unimproved.
All that affection and medical
ecience could do was bestowed in
the vain hope of finding relief, but
Tuesday toe end came
MORE BUILDING.
For the State College Million
Dollar Appropriation Bill
: r Passed.
Within a short time, funds will
be available for the construction of
a woman's building and drill quart
ers for the-cadet regiment at. the
State College The sum is $6;,-
ooo, and it is probable that building
operations will be undertake in the
very near future. One result of the
election is that the people have
voted to approve of the Million
Dollar appropriation bill. It will
be remembered that the measure
was a huge omnibus bill in which
appropriations for state institutions
were indiscriminately grouped to
gether with Normal School and
other appropriations. It was pass-,
ed during the last day of the legig;
lative session, but not until after
Governor Chamberlain had induced
the legislature to eliminate the
emergency clause so the referendum
could be applied to the bill, r This
the people did, and at Monday's
election, they voted on the ques
tion of v- whether or not the bill
should be vetoed, or approved. -
According to the returns announ
The funeral was attended by ced, they voted to approve the bill.

ducted by Dr. Thompson, and was
simple. A wealth of flowers testi

the dead was held.
Miss Whitby was a graduate of
the state college in the class of

Armstrong, H. S. Guile, H.
Williamson and others.
While the meeting is chiefly for
the cherry, the walnut will receive
no little attention.
It is believed that thousands voted
for the measure that intended to
vote against it, due to the manner
in which it was stated. However
that may be, the bill has the sanc
tion of the popular ballot and will
become effective as soon as the
formality of an official count and
the issuance of the governor's pro
clamation can be made. This form
ality will - require two or three
weess, probably, i ne law says
that the official vote shall be can
vassed by the secretary of A state in
the presence of the governor within
30 days after the. election- Im
mediately thereafter, the governor
shall issue a proclamation declaring
the result of the referendum vote,
'and the" measure so proclaimed
shall become operative on the date
of the proclamation. "The law is as
follows:
Section 9. It shall be the duty
of the secretary of state, in the
presence of the governor, to pro
ceed within thirty days after the
election and sooner if the returns
be all received, to canvass the vo'es
given to each measure, and the
governor shall forwith issue his
proclamation, which shall be pub
lished in like manner as other
proclamations herein provided for,
giving the whole number cast in
the state for and against each meas
ure in question, and declaring such
measures as ere approved by a ma
jority of those voting thereon to be
in fall force and effect as the laws
of the state of Oregon from the date
of said proclamation
