ette unlveralty to accept the chair of
soology tendered him by the trustees
of Denlsoa university at Granville,

among tha students and hla fellow
members of the faoultr. Dr. CoghlU

unlveralty at Foreat Grave, where h
had held the chair of biology and neu
rology for alx year. He has been one
of the professors In ths medical col

recently made vacant by the resigns
tlon of Profeaaor C. Judaon Herrlck,
Who baa been made professor of neu
rology In Chicago unlveralty. Dr, Her
rlck was editor of the Journal of Com
parative Neurology and Paychology, to
which Professor CoghlU was a con
tributor... The new position cams to the
Willamette unlveralty professor unsolicited.
Tha new marine laboratory which Is
to bs conducted at Newport this sum
mer under the auspices of Willamette
anlveraity Was ons of the creatleaa of
Dr. CoghlU and President J. H. Cole
man., and it la. a matter of great re-'
sret that ths learned professor will not
bo here to see the laboratory's work
brought to fruition. He said last even
ing that unless a successor wss chosen
by the Willamette unlveralty board of
trustees Immediately ho would continue
the remainder of the year with the

decision which knocks out ths county
horticulturist and other county offi
cers who Have beea appointed by the
boards of count? commissioners Instead-
of being eleoted by tha people
as the state constitution requires.
Ths constitution provides that va
cancies la count offices shall be filled
by the board of county commissioners
and this is the aolutloa of the prsssnt
sltustioo now proposed. Th plan Is
to treat the offices aa being vacant
and. then havs the commlalonert make
appointments to fill such vacanolea. At
the next' election the offices can be
filled by election the sams as all other
offices are filled. The attorney-general's

would probably meet all ths require
meats of th constitution and the su
