Baker said the mayor had made the request i snd that he believed the enunoll should rant them. Cellars replied that the mayor had never aaked for them and then the betting began. The eontroveray arose over tha ordl sauce whloh wea Introduced two weeks ago by Councilman Kellaher providing for the additional patrolmen snd an ap propriation of $4.0oo for their salaries. That meaeure was laid on. tha table at I the Isst meeting and. when DeDUtv Audi tor Orutse called attention to the fact that the meaaure waa still on the table, the councllmen Jumped Into the debate without taking the ordinance from the table. I After threshing the subject about fort it minutes Kellaher aaked whether It! waa PFOPly before the council.

With only one more score before the final one the excitement of all the stu dents will be at its height The next score, which will appear 8aturday, will show each student where he or she stands, snd all will know that they have only one more effort to win a- fournal scholarship. Between now and 0 o'clock next Saturday will be the only time contestants will hsve to re trieve themselves, and not a single min ute should be lost In making a thorough canvass of ths field. It is expected that some skyrocket work will be done, end that some of the scores will go op like balloons. There Is no telling yet, however, whether the winning Dauoon win nover over Port land, Dallas, Monmouth, Grants Pass or Baker -- City. Straws generally ahow which way the wind blows, but the shifting winds may yet pick up some of tho doubtfall straws and carry them to the winning points. Perhaps some . Students who expect to get their choice of all the scholarshlpa may hava to be contented with what Is left after sev eral other clever students get their choice. All Oyer Saturday. The battle of the ballot is about over and to the victors will belong the spoils. The winners Will hava rood rmann tn be proud of their victory, and the van quished will have ample time to solilo quise, and wonder why they were not able to secure just as many or more votes as their clever competitors. It will be all over but the shouting Sat urday, and the ehoutlng will be loud and long by the happy atudents who will carry away valuable scholarships, to gether With roodlv sums of raid whlnh they so faithfully worked for during 'SMOKE UP," SAYS BOARD TO SOME, "DON'T SMOKE," IT SAYS TO OTHERS .
