Judge John Waldo Dead.
Judge John B. Waldo, formerly su

spected citizen of Marlon county,
died at his home In the Waldo hills,
Marlon county, Monday night after
an Illness of two weeks. Judge Wal
do was born In the Waldo hills, on
the old Waldo homestead In 1844 and
has been a resident of the state of

ration of his term on the supreme

HALFCOMPLETEO
ARMORY HELD UP
BY REFERENDUM
Supreme Court Holds Ab
sence of Warning Clause
Does Not Invalidates
CIRCUIT JUDGE GALLOWAY
DECISION WAS REVERSED.
"The Statute Has Not In Terms En
acted That There Shall Be a Warn
Ing Clause,'; Says Supreme Court:
Therefore It Is Not .Essential Ar
mory Appropriation Not Specifical
ly Mentioned, But Inference ' and
Association Seem to Include it In
the Present Finding.
As a result of a decision handed
down by the supreme court Monday,
Pendleton will have to wait at least
until after next June's election be
fore tl can be given an armory build
ing. On Monday Chief Justice Bean
rendered an opinion for the court in
the case of the referendum petition
against the University of Oregon's ap
propriation. The petition had been
declared Invalid by Circuit Judge Gal
loway because It did not contain the
warning clause. However, this was
held by the supreme court not to be
a fatal defect, and the following ex
tract from Chief Justice Bean's de
cision states the attitude taken by the
court:
"The purpose of the petition (or
re(erendum Is to Identify a particular
enactment of the legislative assembly,
which the petitioners desire to have
referred to the people a question of
identity, not of legislation."
"The statute has not In terms en
acted that there shall be a warning
clause upon the petition, but only In
giving the form of the petition In
cluded a warning therein, which It
provides 'shall be substantially the
form of petition,'" and 'this part of
the statute Is only a provision of form
to aid In carrying out a right already
existing. Independent of the statute,
nnd expressly states- that It Is not
mandatory.' "
While the armory appropriation
case was not one of those decided by
the court, the facts in the case are
snld to be identical with those In the
rnlverslty of Oregon appropriation
case. Consequently, it is feared that
the guard appropriation will also
have to wait until the people can
vote upon the measure nejtt June.

LOUIS GLASS SENTENCED.
Following Conviction for Bribing Sn-IK-rvlsors.
San Francisco, Sept. 4. The court
said In passing sentence upon Louis
uiass. convicted of bribery of super
visors:
"There are two general confedera
tions pending upon the mind of the
court in determining the measure of
punishment In this case. The first
turns upon the situation of the defen
dant himself. The man is well ad
vanced In years and has appeared In
court charged the first time with the
commission of a public offense. The
other consideration Is the nature of
the offense, which In effect Is a crim
inal transgression upon the Institu
tions of the country Itself. The cer
tnlnty rather than the extent of pun
ishment Bhould control. Weighing
both considerations, I have reached
the conclusion as to the measure of
punishment, which I feel should be
both Just and fair under all the cir
cumstances presented.
"Louis Glass, It is the Judgment of
the law and the sentence of the court
thnt you be confined In the state pris
on of the state of California at San
Quentln, for a term of five years."
For some moments after the sen
tence Glass stood as stunned.
