The reault waa un expected. The only democratic ap- SHcant for apeaklng time vraa Hud leilon of Alabama, who ilta ao far over In the liberal wing of the party that b Joined laat aprlng In the "progreaalve ronferenee" of inde pendent and Imurgenta. Hudilleston lambaated the admlnli tratlon In aura atrong language that tb rep'ihllcana, aelrlng the opportnn ltr to dub him a democratic spokes Sian. acruaed (hat party of favoring the dole. The repuMlcena war faring even worse in the aenate. Damoi Rap Moaei Th western independenta made go publie atatement of their reason! for bolting Moea, but privately they aid a great deal. They let It be known that they were tired of alight ing remarks Motea had made about them, resented a reported threat by him to deprive them of committee rhslrtnanshina and felt there was too much ateam-rolllng in Moses' methods when presiding over the1 senate. of the Men's Glee club working on der John Stark Evans. Due to econ omy measures that irrouo was aban Uoned this year and the division of I lie poiypoonic naa unaeriasen to car ry on tbe male choral work. Another group of distinction that appeara on the program Sunday ia the I'niverilty eynipbony orchestra. Tbie group, developed by Rex Un derwood, le one of the few college or chestras in the country capable of adequately performing in a "Mes alah," believes Mr. Boardman, who will direct the Joint performance Bun day afternoon. The four soloists for tbe oratorio will be Nancy Tbielsen, soprano; Ktargaret Himms, contralto; lisilley Crawford, tenor; and George Bar ron, bass. The solo work with uni versity productions is passed around between the variotia advanced stu dents In tbe school of muilc. Mr. Boardman explained. Laat year 22 different students were given chances to do solo work. The silmlsslon price for the ora torio has been reduced to 26c nnd a much larger sudlence Is expected since changing the place from tbe Music auditorium to McArthur court.

An Inviolate rule la thnt re porters ire not reporters on gridiron Sight. The democrats did not escape. A roup of party leaders, Including Al fred B. Smith, John J. Ilaskob, John W. Davis, Jnuett Slinuse and Gov ernor Franklin P. Koosevelt, was shown stop tbe Empire building In New Tork. Everything went fairly well until tne ghost of Thomas Jefferson ap peared. A cock crowed. The spirit nailed It aa the democratic rooster but learned: "Don't let the rooater turn Into goose or the mule become s jackass.1 "What a nerve," Ttasknb exclaimed the apparition disappeared, "No body Invited him." ti 1! STORY (CONTINUED FROM PAGE I) expressed this ideal" In the ' following way: "The general rnlturnl effect of mu sic In universities Is fur reaching. That th teste of the public ia be coming more appreciative of good mu sic la shown lu ths Increasing quality of broadcast music. One of the sev eral means through which this chance kaa been brought about Is In the uni versities where deeper appreciittinn of greet music Is constantly being cnulred by the student." In commenting on th "Messiah," John J. anriiburjr, drsn of the school of music, elated that Handel's com position holds the same place In church music that the Bible holds in religion, that Hhakespenre holds In literature, and the constitution in pol itics, lis believes that intimate knowledge of the "Messiah" is Just aa important to tbe educated man a. the Bible, Shakespeare or the con stitution. "I would feel very disappointed to find student who wss graduating from the university and did not know the 'Messlnh' " Dean l.sudshury said. Tbe work of the polvnhonle choir has attracted wide attention during i unique experiment in giving trained Instruction In choral work to all stu dents who wish to participate. The choir la divided Into three sections. The first la made of persons whose ability admits them to knowledge of musical literature of a hkh order. These are not necessarily trained inters. Th second group la composed of II students who csn carry s tune and hsve the desire to slug in the group. Th third division ts uisde up of male students from the first division. Althonsh this experiment Is a new nture, It Is pliiniied lint the group will oon make Its first appearance sepsrste from the full choir. Msny of tb members were formerly members retiring bonds, Improvement of state hlshwnvs. and oiling, there was only sold l,7,,rW of which $."OU,000 has been spont on atnt highways, nnd the balance on county roads. There has b.en apent up to December 81, 1IKX), for construction on state highways, a total of fA.2Sl,664.o8, over half or fa.n80.84fi.23 by tbe etate. fl.881, 087.20 by the county. l,lfi.flo2.75 by th government, f.10.150.28 by the cities, and $nl,(H0.U by the rsllrosda. During this time there hsa been spent for maintenance, including oiling, by th state $800,8080. We have ex pended during this time on general roads, market roada, end special taxea In mad districts voted by th people, approximately $.1,720,412.2. We received during the yeara 102T to 1030, Inclusive, from O ft 0 funds for roads, nB0,768.65. of which J080,. 07rV58 was used to reduce the bonds and applied on stnte hlithwnys, and le Included above. The balance of $272. 711.1.07 was expended for oiling which, added to the above amounts, makes grnnd totsl of (1 1,480,270.07, expend ed in Isne county on rosds and high ways during the previous ten yeara. Interest Is Saved "It wns evident, that the bond Issue would not complete the roads contem plated to be built in cooperation with the state highway commission and the bureau of public roads and It wna necesenry that the county court pro vide aome meana for meeting tnelr share of these cooperative jobs. Funds wore available from the state and bureau and th county having ad vanced funda to start work on the Willamette highway and l,e Roose velt highway from Florence north, i.i order to get th work atarted for which state and bureau money was not avu bio st that time, we asked the slats highway commission last year to advance I.sna county's share neces sary to continue the work on the un completed stnte hluhwnys and retain th nutomnbil license fees to spply on this advancement without Interest until lb amount waa fully paid, "This proposal wns submitted to their attorney and finally an agree ment wns reached Oclolier 21, 11KIO, the same to take effect January 1. ItKtl. This insured the sneedv comple tion of the state hlirlnvnvs. saved a large amount of Interest as compared to selling more bonds and It Is greatly to the advantage of Lane county to complete these rosds as soon as pos- sinie anri turn tun maintenance over to the state hlchwav commission. T.sne county hss 811 mllca of stnte hlnh- viti which tm mnra hn tn county In the stele, end It has been ' mostly very hesvy construction, but If there Is no change In the law, we will he relieved of a very heavy ex pendltnr for maintenance when the roads are finally turned over to the state highway commission. Durlnn this time the stnte haa received as their shnre of the automobile licenoe feea from Lane county and ths estl- mated Income from the gasoline fat M.o.s.' flns -n. it is evident from these flenres that the etate hlvhwav com mission hss received from Iene eonntv pnrotlmstelv as much as haa been expended by them in the county and that the money provided from the bond Issue hss been exnended in counties, which due to their smell population did not provide much In come from these sources."
