a Worst Game Ever at Pendleton.

Pendleton, Or., June IS. In a decld
v. dly poor game of baseball. Baker City
r won from J.'eodleton today by the score
t of 15 to s.. The contest became bo raw
that the graTidstanrt and bleeehers were
s practically denuded of spectators, and
those who remained spent their time in
-roasting the players on both sides. It
was undoubtedly t'.ie worst game ever

possible for the people of the state to
pass upon the question before November

Attorneys see a serious aspect In ths
change caused by the alteration m tne
date of holding elections. It means
that It will be practically two years
after an act Is passed by the legisla
ture and held up by the referendum
before the people can have an oppor
tunity to pass their Judgment andeuner
ratify or reject tne measure.
Under the old system,- as Illustrated
by the campaign Just closed, It required
n radically a year and six months to
get action on a measure upon which
the referendum had been Jnvoked. A
bill passed by the legislature some time
in January and held up by the refer
endum could not be acted upon until
June of the following year. This was
due to the fact that all regular ses
sions of the legislature were held on
odd years, as 1907, While all general
elections were held In June of the even
years, as June, 1908.
rue cnange in ine aaie, nowever,
Fostpones the date some five months,
n the future therefore If the legisla
ture of 109 should pass some law upon
which thu referendum should be in
voked, the measure would be held up
until November, 1910. It would be
practically two years therefore before
the law passed by the legislature of
1809 could become of effect.
In the case of an appropriation bill.
as the University of Oregon appropria
tion lust considered at the polls, it
would be nearly two years before the
appropriation could become errecttve lr
the referendum was Invoked. From
another point of view, a measure held
up Joy the referendum could not be
eftBSfr killed or made effective by the
neonle until two months before the sue-
ceeatng legislature Degan its worn.
