Proposition to Sell Rural Lines Has
B(n 3Iade Home Company's -
Offer or. $1.50 a Month
Has ' ficen Rejected.
HOOD RIVER. Or., Jan. 18. Special.)
Believing that (trey ought to have a dol
lar a month phone service,, a large mass
' meeting was held by the farmers of Hood
River Valley this aXternoon to try to
force either the new Home company or
the Pacillc Biates company to supply
service at that price. The farmers are
said to be backed up in their attitude
by the local lodges of the Grange, and
members in' attendance at the meeting
from thafc organization " state ' that if
neither of the companies .Till! give thera
a dollar rate they will buy the rural lines
of the Pacitlc States company, which has
.offered them a proposition.
Whye' the . farmers, were holding . a
meeting, which was attended by several
of the officials of the Pacific States com
pany. the rival organization, the Home
Telephone Company, which is installing
a HOO.lXiO plant at Hood River, also "held a
meeting to consider the demands of the
farmers. The refusal of the latter to ac
cept the price per month which the new
company wants . to ask them, $1.50 per
month, is said to mean quite a serious
loss, and it is stated that an effort will
be made to placate them. Officers of the
Home -company say that the stockhold
ers are willing to do anything in reason
to give the Valley the best phone service
It has ever had, 'but that dollar phones
are out of the question. The farmers who
own a good many miles of line connect
ing their homes with the main, line, are
equally as firm In their belief that phones
can be furnished them at that- amount,
and that if It is not done they will buy
and control- a line of their own.
At the meeting of the latter an acrl-
. monious discussion developed as to
whether the Grange had the right to take
tip the telephone question and -a member
of the Grange who .was present, stated
, that it had not. It Was also stated that
the new company liad told tho farmers
that it would force them to pay $V50 per
month for phone service, and a good
many expressed fheir Indignation at 'what
they considered unwarranted and unfair
business' methods.
The- proposition of the Pacific .States
company Is to sell the rural lines to the
farmers, keeping the city lines wit the
same connections as at present. The Pa
cific States company also agrees to put In
a new switchboard and to improve the
service at the central office to meet that
being put in by the new company. The
affair has caused widespread interest,' and
Is expected to culminate Monday, when
Another meeting will- be held between
the farmers and the Pacific States offi
cials. FINDS A GCN THAT KILLS

MAX KING ON WIFE'S ! LAND ?
Fine Point of Law to Decide Linn
'- - .. County Assault Case. . .. ' .-
ALBANY, .Or., Jafl. r18. (Special.)
Because Albert Schultz refused to rec
ognize -William Snider in negotiations
over a 'fence between their adjoining
farms and tried to serve a legal no
tice on the tetter's wife. Snider knocked
Schulta down and was on trial today in
Justice .Swan's court for. assault and
battery. The question of Snider's guitt
depends on whether or not Schultz had
a right to go on the Snider farm' to
serye the notice after he had keen
warned to keep off.
A fence- between the two farms was
down and-Schultz and Snider had in
dulged In some wordy -wars over the
matter, which hd terminated la Snider
ordering Schultz to keep off his farm:
Schultz learned that- the legal title to
the Snider farm rested in the name 'of
Mrs. Snider.' so he equipped himself
with a legal notice to repair, the dam
aged fence- and proceeded to-t'he Snider
home. Snider -met him. in- the door
yard, but Schultz Informed him - that
he came to "talk to the .owner of the
land." Snider ;refused to be ignored
and thereupon disfigured his neighbor's
countenance'. -
In the trial today Snider, admitted
striking Schultz, but pleaded a, right to
take drastic action in that he had
formally warned SchuLtz to stay off
the' land. 'This question of law which
was fully argued, today will be decided
later by Justice Swan and on -this de
cision hinges the -.guilt or innocence
of the defendant.
GIRLS UPHOLD THE HONOR
BOTS COMPLETELY DISTANCED
IN ALBANY HIGH SCHOOL.
Both in Athletics and Debating Stal
wart Young Men Have, to Retire
. in Favor of ' Tlrelr ..Sisters. '.t
ALB ANT, Or., Jan. 18. (Special!)
Femininity has risen several degrees
and is now at a decided premium in
the Albany High Sohool. The girls
alone have been. able to win. honors for
the school this .year in inter-sch.olastic
contests. While the boys , of the High
School have failed to win success in
either athletics or debating, the ef
forts of the girls In both departments
have brought victory to the school
banner. Hence the condition that the
girls of the school are now occupying
pedestals. - ' .
Last Fall the boys' .football team was
not In the list 6f winners, and this
Winter the boys' basketball team has
met with three successive defeats. But
the girls' basketball' team has start
ed a whirlwind career of victory, de
feating Woodburn High School 25 to 2
and Eugene High School 12 to 0.
It is the same story on the debating
rostrum. In the try-out for the local
team four boys and four girls con
tested, and three girls were chosen for
the team. They defeated' the Salem
High School team, which, by a coinci
dence, was composed entirely of .boys,
but were beaten by the Brownsville
High School in one of the semi-final
debates for the 'championship of the
Central Oregon district in the State
High School series.- -, -
Last year four girls were the only
students in the school to receive the
school letter "A,' typifying athletic
merit. This fact, the boys of the
school assert, was due to a neat scheme
perpetrated on the student body. Both
the football team and the boys' -basketball
teams won qeVeral games ut
didn't happen to win' from another'
High School, partly because .of the
schedule of games that was arranged;.
The boys supposed that, having been a
member of a team winning' a victory
they would receive the school letter,
but found, when the time came .to
make -the awards, that a resolution had
been passed by the student body," en
gineered by the K'rls, that to entitle
a student to an "A" he .must have
been in' a victory over another High
School of equal rank. This shut out
all teams but the girls' basketball
team, and only four players of that
team were found to be entitled to the
official letter, , Though diplomacy is
alleged to ba responsible for the con
dition last year, it seems that merit
will decree a repetition of . this un
usual condition this year. .
FARMERS GET BIDS OX SACKS

WALLA WALLA, Wash., Jan. 18. (Spe
cial.) Three hundred farmers met at Odd
f ellowa' fTeraple this afternoon to consider
plans for letting bids to wholesalers on
about 2,060,000 grain bags ' to be used In
this county. Several . bidders were on
hand, but, owing to the fact that the
farmers are not organized as a corpora
tion, with power to make contracts, noth
ing could be done today. Next Saturday
a committee will meet to draft plans of
Incorporation 'of -the Farmers' Co-Oprea-tlve
and Educational Union, and a' week
later bids will be received on a definite
number of bags. It is reported that ten-;
tatlve offers of sacks as low as .7 cents
each have been made. Last year farmers
paid 10 to 11 cents for Calcutta sacks, and
penitentiary sacks In limited quantities
sold for 9 cents. ' . .-

Atkinson Waiting to See What Mc-
Br-lde "Will Do Rldpath, of
' . - - -. . -
Spokane,.. Said ' to Be a :
Willing. Candidate. ;
OLT51PIA, Wash., Jan'.'-18. (Special.)
A provision- of the- state -constitution
threatens to' become a stumbling block
to the reported aspirations of Superior
Judge W. E. Snell of Tactfma- for., the
-Republican nomination, for Governor 'and
to, -the announced candidacy of Superior
Judge' --Miles ' Poindexter pt Spokane for
Ihe nomination for Congress.
TUe provision is ' the same section of
the constitution that caused. Jldge J. A.
Chadwick of Whitman County to decline
an appointment as a member of the rail
road commission tendered by Governor
Mead, p him three years ago. .
It is section 15 of article four Of the
state. Constitution, reading as follows:.
The Judges of the Supreme Court : and
the Judges of the Suerior Court shall bi
ineligible -to- any other office or .Dubiic em
ployment than a Judicial office or em
Jjloyment dudha the term' for which they
Shall have been elected.
-In respect to Judge Poindexter, his
friends make, the .claim that the Cdn
jjressional position is not to be governed
by the provisions of the state constitii-.
tkin. .
. Waiting 011 McBride.
And in neither cases, as a matter of- fact,
has the fun extent of the provision ' ever
been tested. Attorneys who have raised
the. question say. that although in exact
letter the constitution may not prohibit
a Judge from aspiring to an office -which
he' would', not be called upon to Ml. until
after the expiration of his -judicial term,
the framers of the constitution . mani
festly intended that the section should
obliterate' the chance for. the decisions, of
any judge to be biased' by the possibility,
of political preferment tha. in spirit, at
least, the constitution-prohibits any judge
from aspiring to other political office
while on the bench.
While not wholly eliminated fiom dis
cussion as a gubernatorial, candidate, the
bringing forth,, of this provision of the
constitution has placed Judge Snell some
what in the -background.
On top of it the .positive declaration is
now made by friends -of-, Attorney Gen
eral John D.' Atkinson that hels in the
-race. According to previous announce
ment,' Atkinson, has been- holding -off to
see what Former -Governor Henry Mc
Bride, and -Judge R..-A.' Ballinger," com
missioner of the general 'land office, in
tend to- do. McBrkie is not yet publicly
revealing his exact intentions, but Ball
inger, in letters and in personal inter
views, has said that the governorship is
not one of his aspirations.
Means Fbur-Cornered Contest.
It is generally accepted here that Col
onel W. M. Ridpath of Spokane will be a
candidate and .the situation resolves itself
'at'thls time to a four-cornerec contest
with Mead, Cosgrove, Atkinson and Rld
path in the race. ......
Tacoma will have a candidate in the
field notwithstanding the probable ue
clination of Judge SneH, If certain Seat
tle politicians can bring it about Some,
of these men don't want McBride and
others want to kill off . any slide to
Atklnsop.- McBride is. feared more by
Mead's official family and friends than
any other candidate, hot only on account
of his strength, but because, it is ad
mitted, if he is successful he will not
leave a single one of them In Office.
Atkinson's opponents are led by sev
eral -Senators from the .insurgent wing
of the last .Legislature with Senator
Robert F. Booth in. the foreground.
Booth was let out as assistant attorney,
general by Atkinson after the close of
he Legislature and naturally does an
feel kindly- toward his former chief.
' Atkinson.'s Strong Lead.'
The an ti -Mead faction in a& party' is
expected to settle soon upon some can
didate, and with McBride, Ballinger and
iSnell indisposed, Atkinson seems to stand
a good chance of coralling .that support.
- This (action is admittedly afraid of the
second choice provision of -4e primary
election law and Is seeking a candidate
which it believes- will be able to poll
more 'than 40 per cent of the party, vote,
in which event the second choice votes
are not to be counted. On - the same
theory- that Stead's best chance of re-
nominatlon is through the second choice
provision, his opponents are seeking to
keep the number of candidates as small
as possible, thereby preyentmjj a scatter
ing of votes. .
