A long argument between counsel ensued as to tho witness' ability to tell when Orchard coaBed to exorcise control over the mine.

The referendum petitioners, through their attorney. Til Ford, today pcrforted their ap peal In the 1'nlviVslty of Oregon case.

From bis decision an appeal to the supremo court baa been taken, and the effect will be to stoll further hold up the university appro priation, which seems to bo tho ob ject of tho petitioners.
