Two foreigners appeared before county clerk Moees Tuesday and declared their intention to become citizens of the United States. They are Wm. J. Johnson of Philomath, and Chris. C. Johnson, of Aleea.

A few years ago they went up into British uoiumoia ana went into mining but before they could file on a claim they had to become Canadian citizens renouncing all allegiance to the sovereign ruler of the United States. But they came back and now they seek to cast off the yoke of Kins Edward. The football game between OAC and the University of Idaho did not materialize yesterday as was anticipated because it had been de clared off a few days earlier in the week. The matter did not become known in time to make a public announcement and as a consequence several were doubtless disappointed in having come here to see the game and hearing that it was not to come off. The reason for the cancelling of the game was because of the physical condition of the OAC team the lack of any object in playing the game, as no championship was at stake, and from a financial point of view it would have been a losing proposition. Idaho did not insist on having the game and OAC was not very anxious to have it for the reasons above stated. It was thought that a game might be ar ranged with some other team just for the sake of having another game of some kind, but that matter fell through and nothing came of it It is talked in football circles that Multnomah has again asked for game with OAC. If the wounded players will consent to play, there is some probability that it wil come off.
