THE SmSHDAY' OBEGfONIAK, PORTLAND, NOVEMBER 15, 1905. LOSES BY ONE POINT Oregon Has Fierce Contest With Washington Team, CRIPPLED TEAM TAKES-BRACE With Three of the Best Players Out of the Game, Oregon Puts the Bail Over and Nearly Tle3 the Score. SEATTLE, "Wash., Nov. It. (Special.) "University of Washington, C; University or Oregon, 5. This score tells the story of the hardest, fiercest and closest football Caste ever seen in the Pacific Northwest, hut it does not tell of the plucky, stubborn Stand mode by the Oregonlans against Washington's relentless assaults, nor of the terrific battle that -was for two hours waged back and forth across the white lined gridiron. "Washington "won because her team was the stronger on offensive plays, although in no other department of the game did the eons of the Evergreen State demon strate their superiority. Neither side scored during- the first half, hut early in the second half Washington worked the ball across Oregon's goal line, and Captain Spiedell booted the leather over between the posts. Battered, shattered and struggling hope lessly against heavy odds, the crippled team from Wcbfoot then took a decided brace, and, with three of its strongest players lying bruised and helpless in their drerslng-rooms, worked the ball down the field and pushed, Fullback Iterron over for a touchdown. It was a magnificent piece of work, and even the Washington rooters rose from their seats and let out a mighty cheer, as the nervy Oregon lads limped hack across the field. Owing to a high wind and a difficult angle, Tcmpleton failed to kick a goal, sand before the two teams could line up for another kick-off Referee Thompson's whistle blew, and the greatest football contest ever seen In the Northwest passed Jnto history. The score probably represents the strength of the two elevens, although many of tho spectators declare that the teams are evenly matched. "Washington's touchdown was 14 minutes after the sec ond half began, after Captain Thayer, Right End Chandler and Center Hush Seed had been removed from the Oregon line-up Tha touchdown was made by Full back McElmon, on a fake play, after a run of 10 yards Just outside Oregon's left "Wing. Washington showed better llne bucklcg ability than Oregon, and this tells the story of the game. Templeton outpointed Spiedell on every exchange of kicks, and Oregon's ends w ere always down under tho points, while Quarterback Latourette played a faultless fnune and ran the Oregon team with rare Judgment. The Oregon forwards played like demons, but Washington's masses were too much for them, as the field was Q8 slippery as an iceberg. Left Tackle SIgrlst was tho best man In Washington's line, but he met his equal today in Captain Thayer, while big Tom McDonald met his master In McKinney, Oregon'e left tackle. Thayer played a magnblcent game until he was exhausted and disabled, when he was carried to the side lines, crying and .protesting- Lanty was Washington's srest ground gainer, but big gains were also made by McElmon, who replaced Lanty in the sec ond half, and by Bagshaw and McDonald. Goodrich, Thayer, Kerron and Templeton were Oregon's ground-gainers, and Latou rette used his quarterback run to ad vantage Goodrich, Chandler and Earl tell on fumbles at opportune moments, and Templeton blocked Spiedell's only attempt to kick a drop from the field. The first half was played principally in Washington's territory, although the ball was once within ten yards of Oregon's Coal The day wa9 stormy, and the cold eouth wind chilled the players to the bone. The contest was witnessed by 2000 spec tators, many of whom were supporters of the Oregon eleven. The game was clean and free from rrangling. and the best of feeling pre vailed, both on and off the field. As a con sequence, tho relations between the Uni versities of Oregon and Washington are more frlendlv than ever 'before. The offi cials were absolutely fair. Oregon was penalized five times for holding In the line, and twice for offside play, while Washington suffered once for holding and three times fo- offside play. Captain Thayer won the toss and chose tho kickoff. Templeton drhing tho ball beyond Washington's goal lino. Spiedell then took a free kick from Washington's 35-yard lino and after sending Goodrich and Thayer through for short backs, Oregon punted. After several exchanges of punts and a number of ineffectual line bucks, Templeton tried a place kick on Washington's 35-yard line, but the ball was blocked and a Washington man Tell on it Washington then began to hammer the Oregon line for steady gains, but the visitors took a decided brace on their own ten-yard line, when Goodrich picked tip Bagshaw's fumble. Tcmpleton's punt was partly blocked, and Washington was Boon back to Oregon's ten-yard line, where Spiedell's would-be place kick was blocked by Templeton, Chandler falling on the ball. Templeton then booted the leather for Go yards into Washington's territory, tho high wind causing the ball to soar far above the head of the Wash ington fullback and roll away toward the cxMd. Time was soon called, with the ball in Washington's possession on her awn se-yard line. Tho terrific pace set during the first half told on some of the players. Chandler of Oregon and Lanty of Washington, giving away to substitutes when the sec ond half oponed. Spiedell kicked off to McKlnnoy, who came hack 36 yards before he was thrown. Thayer drove into the line for a gain of five yards, but Oregon was penalized for holding and forced to punt Wash ington hammered the Webfoot line for short gains, and after more penalties and an exchange of punts, Washington be gan a series of short line plunges, finally sending McElmon through for a touch down, which Spiedell converted Into a goal. Then Oregon took the mighty brace that won for her crippled team the admir ation oT the most ardent Washlntonlans After the final kickoff, Washington was penalized 20 yards for holding, and Ore gon recovered the ball on downs. Fierce plunges by McKlnnoy, Goodrich and Kerron took the ball to Washington's three-yard line, and, with ten well-nigh exhausted players shoving him, Kerron was pushed over for Oregon's single touchdown Just ton seconds before time was called. A goal was impossible, although the faithful ones who had placed their good coin on Oregon shouted to Templeton to tie the score. When seen this evening Coach Knight said: 'I am naturally elated over our victory, for I feel that tho better team won. The Oregon players are gentlemen and good sportsmen, and I wish to com pliment them for the kind of football they plaj." Coach Smith of Oregon said: "Oregon xnado a hard fight and did her best un der the circumstances. We were beaten Wy and honestly, and whilo my men would like to have won, they are satisfied and have no excuses to offer." The lineup: rtlonu TlTrT, Washington.

The Baker City boys won by a score of 5 to 0, after a spirited game. The teams played according to the new rules. Boise kicked off. The Baker City team carried the ball down to within ten yards of Boise's goal. A punt by Bolso carried the ball over Into Baker's territory, dan gerously near the goal, where another fierce engagement took place. Baker steadily fought the ball back to tho cen ter of the field. Both teams attempted line-bucking. Tme was called on the first half with no score. Baker had discovered that tho sprinting would not win, because the Boise boys were famous tocklers, and al ways succeeded in stopping the ball near the starting point. The Baker hoys be gan to buck the Boise line, and this style of campaign was effective, and gave Baker a touchdown after 15 minutes of strenuous work. A failure to kick goal only gave Baker five points. The re mainder of the game was fought out in Boise's territory, with the ball moving slowly to-ward Baker's goal when time was called Export football players who witnessed the game say that it was the best ama teur game they ever witnessed.

WANT DALYTO BE SENATOR BENTON COUNTY BALKS AT COST OF SPECIAL ELECTION. Although Daly Holds a Federal Office, Petitioners Say Governor Has No Official Knowledge. SALEM, Or., Nor. 14. (Specials-Governor Chamberlain has received numerous requests from prominent residents and taxpayers of Benton County asking- him not to consider Senator Daly's seat in the State Senate vacant and not to call a special election in Benton County in case a special session Is held. The petitioners represent that & special election would cost $800 and that there is no need of electing a successor to Daly Just for the work of a short special ses sion. It is agreed that the Governor has no official knowledge of Senator Daly's holding a lucrative Federal position and that he need not consider the Senator ship vacant There may be two sides to this matter. s A COST OF $45,000. Tho constitution provides that no per son holding a lucrative office under the state, or the United States, shall be eligible to a seat in the legislature. Ac cording' to law Daly's seat is apparently already A'acant. Under present statutes no tax levy can be made in January. If tho Legislature at a special session should authorize a levy at that time, some property-owners In Benton County might contest the validity as to that county upon the ground that the county did not have the representation in the rLegislature guaranteed by the constitu tion. It is doubtful whether this would lnvalidato the levy, but the question might be raised. Governor Chamberlain has not decided what he will do, but desires if possible to accede to the wishes of Benton County people who have asked that no election be held. SIX MORE SEND ANSWERS. ' Five of the Legislators Favor Short Session to Remedy Tax Law. SALEM, Or., Nov. 14. (Special.) Let ters from six members of the Legislature wero received by Governor Chamberlain today, and all but one of these favor a special session of the Legislature a short session and the consideration of a remedial tax law only. None made absolute pledges to oppose all other legis lation, but with one exception they ex pressed tho opinion that no other legisla tion should be taken up unless it be of "great importance" or of "equal impor tance" to the tax law. Those heard from today were Representatives Wheal don, Hudson, Cornett, Eddy, Purdy and Hume. The Governor has now received replies from 32 members of tho Legislature. JUl except about six hat'e expressed a de sire for a short sessionand tho considera tion of the tax law only. With this num ber ulready heard from, it seems almost certain that replies will bo received from more than a majority of the members, and that fully a majority will favor 1Imltlng the work of tho session to tho wt4""" . iaw. j.nere is now no uhuoi oxouna ine cam to i mat a. special session will bo held, though tho Governor has not yet determined what he will do and has not expressed him self as favorable to p. special session. He still stands by his purpose not to call a special session unless he receives assurances from a majority cf the mem bers that they will oppose other legisla tion than that correcting the defect In the tax law, but he Is not insisting that tho assurance shall be contained in an absolute, final promise Those who aro watching the matter closely feel quite certain that tho Oregon Legislature will bo In session in Salem about December 18 to 2L and that the members will all be at home again by Christmas. The question is still up to tho Gover nor, however, and that official Is not saying what will bo done. Gault Gives His Reasons. FOREST GROVE, Or., Nov. 14. Repre sentative D. M. C. Gault. of this county, haa answered Governor Chamberlain's request ror nis Opinion of tho need of an extra session by submitting somo facts and llttle local history, which will ex plain wBy the sentiment of Washington County is so strongly in favor of a pro posed remedial legislation. The opinions of his colleagues are understood to be quite similar to those expressed in his letter. For the first time in 3 number of years, this county has only Republican repre sentatives in the Legislature, a condition brought about not by victory at the polls, but through the disqualification of Joint Senator Sweek and Senator Wehrung, both of whom were elected oa the Cit izens' fusion movement in this once Re publican stronghold. Mr. Gault says in his letter: "I am in receipt of your letter of tho 6th Instant, touching a special session of tho Legislature to amend the Phelpa-act The letter Is somewhat of a surprise; yet I cheerfully give what information I have which I concede you havo a right to ask. "Washington County is paying Its war rants in cash on presentation, and can continue to do so .without receiving moro NewYorkDental Parlors Fourth and Morrison Sts. Portland, Oregon.

This will be the rule until about January, 1SCG, when tax money will again bo paying in under tho Phelps act. Our monthly expenses av erage 53500, paid out of tha county gen eral fund. "Tho interest on this amounts to nearly 5S00 for tho nine months. The county will be injured that much. Tho schools will be injured the samo way. "Indeed, our Hillsboro school, which, lost a year's tax somo years ago by a cha'nge In method of collecting, 1S93, 1 think, had its high school grade pricked off, and it has not yet been restored. "The most to suffer, however, is the municipal governments, which in this county are levying taxes up to the limit permitted by the charters, Tho towns evidently require tho money, or they would not levy. If a year is skipped, it can never be made up, for the City Coun cil cannot levy in September, 1S04, a dou ble amount, or can the County Court for tho county general fund. These are the facts, but I cannot advise you to call a special session. To call Is your preroga tive, and you must assume the responsi bility for calling or notcalling. " "I cannot see my way clear to pledge myself to follow the lino you have laid down. I would not pledge during tho campaign of 1SQ2, and I cannot now. If I go to Salem for an extra session, I must go free and untrammeled. I wish your letter had not contained tho threat that unless tho members pledged themselves to the amendment of the Phelps act, and then adjourned, you would not call a ses sion, notwithstanding the public welfare ucumuueu remedial legislation.

Leav ing you tho freedom of action that I claim for myself, I remain, etc"- Ojther Matters' Need Attention. ASTORIA, Or.. Nov. 14.-(Special.)-Rep-resentatlve Carnahan, in replying to Gov ernor Chamberlain's letter, will refuse to pledge himself not to favor any legislation outside of tfya tax law. He says ho has no measures which he wishes to introduce, but adds that if the contention already made in tho courts that tho fees charged for recording and many of those collected by the County Clerks are Illegal, is up held, It is as necessary to remedy that law as It is to rectify the error in the tax law. PAY FEES WITH A SMILE. Mining Incorporations Not Checked by New Tax Law.. SALEM, Or., Nov. 14. (Special.) If the corporation tax law passed by the last Legislature is ruining the mining industry in this state, the records in tho oflico of the Secretary of Stato fall to give even an Indication of such an effect. Mining companies and bther Industrial concerns ore taking corporate form daily and corporations organized in other states aqe coming here to do business. Tho number of new corporations is not so large this year as last, and the amount of authorized capital stock is not as great as formerly, but it Is apparent that when a company has a paying business In which to engage, it does not hesitato on account of the" comparatively small sum the state charges for the corporato powers It confers upon the men who own the property and business concerned. The fees collected are running from 5600 to 5900 per week, with an average of about 5750 a week at this time of tho year. In July, when all tho corporations pay their annual license fees, the receipts will bo heavy enough to bring tho total for the year closo to 5100.000. The dally receipts are from new corporations or those newly coming intone stato to transact business. , One letter received by the Secretary of Stato t6day contained articles of incor poration for a mining company, and in it were greenbacks to the amount of 5110, to pay tho incorporation fee and tho license fees for a portion of a year. Earlier in tho week two other mining companies sent in 566 each for tho same purposes. It is noticeable that the cor porations now being formed have less of the "wild cat" appearance that was so prominent a year ago. Tho articles filed this week were as follows: Gold Point Mining & Milling Company, Grant's Pass; 5100,000; F. W. Chausse, W. T. Cope, D. H. Stovall.

The hogs were running at large on Booth's place, and he took them, up, and after the usual notice, the Con stable sold them. Arstell then sued Booth for damages and Booth Justified posses sion. Judge G. H. Burnett held that the law was unconstitutional, because it allowed the Constable to sell without proceedings in tho courts. Disappears From La Grande. LA GRANDE, Or., Nov. 14.
