Five acts of the Legislature have been referred to tho people for con firmation or rejection one against the State 1'nlverslty repair fund, one against (he State University building appropriation, one against the ster ilization act, ouu against the County Attorney bill, and ouo against the workmen's compensation act, The two refereudunis against the State University are fathered by II. .1. Purklsou, formerly a larbor agi tator, now an amliulauce-cliaslng at torney, They, like tho previous rof orendums, which were composed of fraudulent and faked signatures, are nil abuse of the referendum for spite purposes an elfort to cripple tho Stnte 1'nlvorslty and hamper its use ful work In order to "get even" with tho c!!y of Eugene because l'arkl koii would not make it a "closed town." Tho pretense is put forth by Pnr kison that ho Is acting In behalf of tho future consolidation of the Oregon Agricultural Collego and tho State University. Consolidation would mean a single Institution lo cated at Portland and create a for tune for the land speculators alleg ed to be backing the scheme, and n great logs to tho state in tho aban doned institutions.
