III STATE GRANGE
Discussion of Appropriation
in University Town -:
Eule gut -; , .
(pedal Diapttck. to The Jonrnat) "
: .Albany, Or., May -The Linn county
arrange will not attempt to carry ths
University of Oregon referendum net
teV into the sessions of the .state
g ranee, which will be held at Eugene.
- At a recent meeting of the council It
. wae decided that 'It would be inadvis
. able to carry the fight into this meet.
. ing unless discussion was precipitated
-and -the necessity of - vindicating; Us
attitude was forced upon it.
A resolution favoring the California
?lan of - apportioning county ' school
unds was indorsed. - This provides that
the funds be apportioned on the basis
- of the number, of teachers in charge
of duly organised districts. It Is
thought this plan will give each dis
trict equal advantages as to length of
terms.
Linn's delegates to the state grange
were instructed to wqrk foi a change
' In the rules of the order so that it may
' be possible to confer four grange de-
f rees at one meeting. This to be op.
, lonal with, each subordinate organlaa-
tlon and subject to the approval of the
national grange.
Allan Eaton, father of the University
of Oregon appropriation measure, was
present and explained the needs of the
; university. He was accorded evry cour
tesy by the leaders in the fight for the
referendum on the appropriation meas
ure. Professor I R. Alderman was
: present and as president of the unlver.
eity alumni spoke in behalf of that
, Institution. The friends of the unlver
, sfty feel tMat the very existence of
that Institution is endangered and that
the sustaining of the referendum will
- be a direct blow at Oregon's educational
system.
Eugene Palmer, and Cyrus H. Walker
of the Linn county grange answered
their arguments and explained the mo
tive that actuated tpe grange In invok
ing the referendum on the Baton meas
ure. Altogether the session was a most
harmonious one and resulted In draw
ing the warring factions closer together
and may possibly serve to convince the
leaders that sincerity of purpose is pos
sible on both sides. '
The fight over the university refer
endum has been waged with more or
less bitterness in this county and in
other sections of the state. Linn county
people, in common with all others, feel
that the university is a necessary part
of the state's educational system and
do not desire to do It injury. The
members of the Linn county grange
also believe In higher education and

" FORCE " Is made of the best white wheat, teem-cooked",

pouring tke oream in the other side, dipping the flakes a eaten.

BOARD THE REAR PLATFORM
IF YOU REALLY MUST SMOKE
SOUTHERN
AG
Tomorrow and thereafter you can
smoke your cigar on the back platform
of any and all streetcars In Portland
except those on the O. W. p and Port
land Heights lines.' Safety here re
quires that the platforms be kept dear,
so a dry smoke is in order on .these
two lines. But otherwise Just light
right upon the back platform. You
must keep off the front platform, how
ever. The reason for this sane but be
lated rule I" that the cars now stop
with the front platform nearest the
" wallrVso more people are supposed to
step in and off the. front platform than
from the bank one. In actual practice
In other cities, however, one platform
Is used lust as much as the other.
The change promises to be a good one,
as heretofore the smoke from the front
platform blew back into the car, where
on the back end It goes trailing in a
thick murky cloud out over the rear
rail. On open cars this summer the
poor depraved male smokestack will be
allowed to fumigate the two rear seats
as usual. Smokers generally hail the
new rule witn whirrs or lov. The ac
tual order causing all this change reads
thus:
"Portland Railway. Light ft Power
company. Effective May 7. on Portland
railway division only, smoking on closed
cars will be allowed only on rear plat
form; Conductors " will keep the rear
doors closed as much as possible ana
will not allow passengers to stand on
the rear platforms to the extent of
blocking eitner tne piatrorm or me
steps, thus Interfering with passengers
entering or leaving me car.
STOLE OLD SILVER SERVICE
IN EXCHANGE FOR KINDNESS
Mrs. B. M. 'Denlson. of 262 Sixth
street, Is looking for a handsome, tall,
dark, young man about 22 years of
age, gifted with a smiling and affeot
ing command of the mother tongue,
and armed with a splendidly consistent
hard-luck story warranted to go to the
heart of any tender-feeling housewife.
And she wants him bad. He answers
to the name of Taylor Adams and sup
posedly halls from New York, though
If you . talk to him long enough and
he doesn't want to work you he will
admit that he has been all around the
world and It has coat him nothing.
But although It is his silver that
she is after it Is not In a matrimonial
way that Mrs. Denlson is looking for
him. There are other chains than
those of Hymen that she will have
waiting for Mm. She wants the stiver
ware that she believes he stole from
her trunk In the basement after she
bad trusted him.
Mra . Denlson moved Into the flat a
few days ago when it was vacated by
Mra. R. D. Cannon, a friend. The
young man had worked on Mra " Can
non's sympathy and In the process of
moving sne naa rouna mm an aoie
assistant, wtlllna? to do anvthlna- "be
cause he had looked everywhere for
work and had not found It." So she
bequeathed him and his services to Mrs.
Denlson who- listened to his story and
Java him a place In the basement Fri
ay night.
Saturday morning; she went' tb call
him for breakfast and he had dlaap-
fieared. Slightly suspicious she lookod
n the trunk she had left in the base
ment but all looked smooth and un
disturbed. Last night she went down
to get her silver and found it gone
though the top of the trunk had been
carefully arranged to cover the theft.
The old silver service. Including coffee-pot,
teapot, sugar-bowl, creamer
and spoon-holder, which belonged to
her mother who is now In the east,
was gone. The police were notified, but
from Saturday to Wednesday Is a long
stretch and Mra Denlson Is skeptical
about ever seeing her silver again. How
ever, she is anxious that other house
wives should not be so Imposed upon
and so Is willing to make her dis
comfiture publie.
