NEW ISSUE NORMAL FIGHT
Olovement May Keopcn Battle at
Special Session of Legislature
and Threatens to In
volve Many Issues.
SALEM. Or.. March 13. (Special.) That
a desperat effort n-ill be made to hold
up the appropriation of J210.000 for Im
provements and new buildings at the Ore
gon Agricultural College Is shown by the
statement of . K. D. Brlggs. Ashland at
torney and normal-school booster, who
stated while here today that a referen
dum petition is being circulated in the
southern part of the state, and lias al
ready received 2500 signatures In Jackson
County alone.
Briggs states that the petition is being
vory generally signed and that the re
quired number of signatures no doubt
will be secured. ,
Club for Normal Schools.
This is regarded as an effort of the
normal-school partisans to secure a vant
age point from which to bring pressure
to bear on the friends of O. A. C. in the
scheme to reopen the normal-school fight.
As only 6 per cent of the electors are
required to refer the appropriation there
seems to be no doubt of the success of
the movement to hold up the appropria
tion. If those behind it are in earnest.
Brlggs, who was in the Legislature'sev
eral years ago, was a member of a
Southern Oregon party of boosters on
their way to Portland to bring pressure
to bear on the Multnomah delegation to
secure support for the reopening of the
normal-school fight. "
Ashland Starts Move.
From Ashland it is learnnl tht ,
referendum petitions have been forwarded
to Attorney-General Crawford .lHr, i,;.
opinion as to the correctness of form of
the petition. Accompanying each petition
iorwaraea to solicitors and circulators is
a slip containing Information as to the
manner of securing and attest I no- th.
names signed and requesting that the
pennons be forwarded to "Drawer J
Ashland, Or."
The appropriation bill for improvement
at mo state Agricultural College is sep
arate from the continuous appropriation
for maintenance. The special appropria
tions, totaling J210.000, are divided as fol
lows: Thirty-five thousand dollars for
new armory, $55,000 for rent! .i,.i
tural building. $35,000 for new heating
pimt. 5--U.000 lor purchase of additional
land at CorvaHis. $5000 for construction of
new greenhouses and $'30,000 for additional
equipment not itemized in the bill.
Arguments as Advanced.
It is argued by the petitioners that
the continuous appropriation for main
tenance will allow the college to con
tinue its work even though the refer
endum should suceed in holding up the
appropriation until the election in No
vember, 1910.
A printed sheet accompanying the
petition sent to the Attorney-General
sets forth the reasons for invoking the
referendum. Tiie Legislature is criti
cised for making such a large appro
priation for the extension of one state
supported educational institution in the
face, it Is argued, of the various evi
dences that there Is hostility toward
paying large sums of money for state
supported institutions of higher educa
tion, as shown by the vote last June on
the University of Oregon appropriation,
which carried in the state by the small
majority of 3580, while seven counties
furnished large majorities against such
an appropriation. Washington County
led off with a majority of 74 per cent
against the University of Oregon ap
propriation. Linn followed with 73 per
cent, Marlon with 70 per cent, Clacka
mas with 69 per cent, Benton with 65
per cent, Yamhill with 69 per cent, and
Polk with 64 per cent.
Solons Accused of Incompetency.
It is charged that the members of
the Legislature are too incompetent to
estimate properly the needs of the
state Institutions, and that this special
appropriation bill should have been re
ferred by the Legislature to a vote of
the people. It is pointed out that the
invoking of the referendum on the spe
cial appropriation bill of the Oregon
Agricultural College at this time will
not Interfere with the school continu
ing Its work as far as maintenance is
concerned. This, it is argued frees
this referendum of the prejudice that
obtained in the case of the referendum
voted on in 1906, which held up the
$1,054,429 greneral appropriation "bin for
maintenance of the state eleemosynary
penal and reformatory institutions in
order to defeat the $113,000 for the
' maintenance of the then four normal
schools.
The circular declares that invoking
of the referendum on the special ap
propriation bill of the college will not
produce any hardship and yet at the
same time affords opportunity and time
for the friends of that educational in
stitution to establish its place in the

CHAMBERLAIN IS PLEASED
Tells New Yorkers How Much He
Likes Direct Primary.
NEW YORK, March 12. George Earle
Chamberlain, new Democratic United
States Senator from Oregon, presided to
night at a meeting of New York's Civic
Forum. The session was for the dis
cussion of the question of direct primary
nominations and the chief speaker was
Senator La Follette, of Wisconsin.
Before Introducing Senator La Follette,
Senator Chamberlain spoke at some
length of the Oregon direct primary,
prefacing his remarks by a history of the
conditions and events which, led to its
adoption.

possible one of the most remarkable
protests' against machine rule on record
the election of a Democratic Senator
from a Republican state, and by a Leg
islature in which the Republicans ha I an
overwhelming majority. The people are
so well pleased with the result of their
new primary as well as with their initia
tive and referendum that there is no
likelihood of any changes in the law for
years to come."

"When Answering Questions.
TACOMA, Wash., March 12. (Special.)
With the admission df Prosecuting At
torney McMurray that the moral char
acter of Joshua Klein was not questioned
by the state and the statement of Police
man Albert F. Brown that lie was to wait
at the Sauvageot home until the arrival
of Attorney Fremont Campbell and
Prosecuting Attorney Rowland before
making the arrest of Klein on the even
ing of Klein's alleged attempt to kill Miss
Dora Culberson, the defense professes to
have gained two great points in the trial
of Kiein's case.
Throughout the trial, witnesses for the
state have attempted to show In their
statements of what actually led to the
assault as charged,, that Klein possessed
a baleful influence over Miss Dora
Sauvageot and Rose Karasek, which was
immoral in many respects. This morn
ing, during the cross-examination of Mrs.
Nellie C. Suavageot. mother of Miss Dora,
Attorney Charles E. George for the de
fense forced the issue when he asked:
Questions Disconcert iler.
"Do you know of your own knowledge
of any acts of immorality on the part of
the defendant?"
Airs. Sauvegvot was plainly disconcerted
and appealed to judge Easterday. She was
told to answer it with "Yes" or "No."
The woman replied faintly, with head
bent :
"Yes."
"Then, were any of these alleged acts
of Immorality on the part of the defend
ant directed against you personally?"
queried counsel for the defense.
Again Mrs. Sauvageot was embar
rassed. With face flushed a deep red
she appeallngly gazed at Judge Easter
day. lVoman Appeals to Judge.
"Do I have to answer that. Judge?"
she queried with trembling voice.
Prosecuting Attorney McMurray Jumped
to his feet with the statement that the
moral character of the defendant was
not questioned by the state and. Inad
vertently, not only carried the defense
through what they say was a critical
juncture but gained for It one of the
main points at issue in the trial.
Instantly Attorney George was upon

LOS ANGELES. Cal.. March 12. tSpe-
ciai.j Politically Los Anreles Is In
state of chaos tonight, and there is no
prospect that order will be established
before Monday at the curliest. The city

are anxious to resign. The City Council
today met in a chamber crowded with
citizens Intent upon the straightening Out
of the tangle that Harper's resignation
caused, accepted the resignation, but
failed to appoint a successor and put off
action until Monday.
Will Name Smith, Defy Recall.
George A. Smith, an ex-Councilman
has been decided upon by a majority of
the Council as Harper's successor, and
mere is little doubt that he will be elect
ed Monday. His appointment, however
will provoke as bitter a fight as that
against Harper, and the courts will Anal
ly be called upon to settle the mess into
wnicn Los Angeles city politics has been
plunged. .
Councllmen Dromgold. Blanchard and
Tonkin have been threatened -with th.

Governor Gage. John II. Calland. United
states District Attorney, Oscar Lawler
who, with other prominent ittornrr.
agrees that the cause of the recall
election has been eliminated by the
resignation of Harper, the antl-Alexan
der faction decided to direct its tlsrht
on the constitutionality of the recall
law Itself. An Injunction will be sought
directed against City Clerk Leland. ,i.
mandingr that he show cause why he
should not be permanently enloine.i
from calling the recall election, and the
court will be asked to determine upon
the legality of the recall at once.
The Aexander forces promise a bitter
fight on this proportion and demand
that the election be held. They main
tain that Harper's term expires March
26, the date set for the recall elec
tion, and that Ills successor cannot
be named to hold office beyond that
date.
Meanwhile Harper has dropped out of
