From Monday's Oregoulan: Mult
uomah had Intended meeting Cor
vallis on the gridiron Held next
oat unlay, In fact the prelimlr.arie for
the game bad been arranged; but the
match I on and It I unlikely that
r.ugeue win consent to play Lorvallts
again. The conduct of three meinbeiM
of the Agricultural College team and
the behavior of sotuo nf the spectators
at tne r.ugciie-lorvallls game at Cor
vallis Saturday Is laid to bo Ihe cause
or tne latHNi. it I reported, on goo,!
authoilly, that three mcuibci of the
i orvalll eleven, Urady llurtielt, 1 truce
liiirnctt and Keloey, initiated slugging
tactic iu Saturday' game, and played
dirty football as long a they were' lu
the game, while the language they uro
aid to have used toward their oppon
ent lu the game was such as, to put It
mildly, should have been foreign to
eollege young men, meeting on Ihe
field of sHirt.
The official of the game wvro FJ
Raley and F U Iturckhaidt, of the
Multnomah club, who had been agreed
upon by the members of Imtli teams
ts-foreliand. The treatment received
by Mr Hurckhardt was referred lo In
Sunday morning' dispatch from Cor
vallis, but Mr Rulev who returned
yesterday, staled that (be particulars
were not correct. iir Haley said:
"Eugene bad the ball on Vorvalli
ID-yard line and carried It over the
line, but lost It by a fumble. Two
men fell on it, and Hurckhardt walked
up to nee who got It. 'That man has
the ball,' he exclaimed, touching
Coleman' shoulder. At the time he
did not know whether he was a Eu
gene or Corvallis man. He certainly
never cliangea his decision, l-.ugeue
tailed to kick a goal, aud the men Itn
mediately ran down lo the center of
the field for the next kick oil', llurck
hardt was following them down, when
Ivelcvy, who Is a hoi serobla-r lu
livery stable there, and not a student
at the college, ran up to lilm aud
without any warning struck him In
the face. Hurkhanlt waa totally tin
prcpated and waa taken oil III guard
"Kelcey and llrady lluruett, who
ran under Multnomah color lu Ihe
last championship games, and hi
brother Itruee Iturnett, played the
llrlleet ball 1 have ever seen. From
what I heard lliein say before the
game, they started out with the delib-
etate Intention or playing dirty ball,
and they carried It into execution
One of the faculty said to me after the
game, siicaklng of their playing: 'It is
a disgrace to the college, a disgrace to
the laculty, a disgrace to foot ball, and
a disgrace lo amateur sport.'
"The faculty declared to me after
the game that Keloey would never la-
pcriiiiled on the college ground,
1'hey also apiiologlzed to Hurckhardt
and myseir ror the treatment llurck'
harill bad received. The other mem
bcra of the Corvalll team were all
right aud behaved like gentlemen, a
likewise did the Kugetie p.ayera. 1 he
latter aftr Ihe game, assembled
on the Held and swore they would
never play in t orvauis again.
"A for the merits of the two teams,
I think Eugene outplayed Corvallis
In the first fifteen minutes, Corvallis
apia-arvd to have the best of it, but for
Ihe reuialuder ot the game f.ugene
outplayed them. Eugenu ha a strong
team this year. I think though It la
some weaker lu the line than It was
last fall."

Fihii Laddkrh at tiik Falls.
Oregoniau: The people of the Willam
ette valley are again agitating the
question of a fish ladder at the falls at
Oregon City. Two futile aud appar
ently foolish attempts have bean made
to construct a llshway at that point.
Now that the fall are bare and dry In
summer, there Is no reason why some
kind of a practicable laddur should not
be constructed there, if the parlies who
have the matter In charge do not al
low themselves b be misled by the
advice of wrons who are Interested In
the concern being a failure. While
the river latd at the brink of the falls Is
bare and dry, any kind of a ladder
could be constructed, even a stone
stairway, with a railing aud landings
at short Intervals, with seats on which
the fish could rest while ascending the
falls. If the legislature will appropri
ate the unexpended surplus of t lis last
appropriation for tills wore, it ought to
be practicable to put lu something next
sniuirer which will enable fish to sur
mount the falls.
