Tho visiting team showed good stuff but the clever passing of Bend was one of the strongest factors In piling up tho score. Both teams woro fairly evenly matched.

BENDS POSTAL INCOME GROWING RAPIDLY (Journal,) WASHINGTON', l. U Jnn. 17 For the first time In tunny years, Oregon Is not represented In tho list of estimates submitted by tho treas ury department for public buildings. This Is because previous sundry civil bills hnvo npproprlnted nil the money needed to complete buildings under construction. Since l'J13 no general public) building hns been pnssed, and except In the ensu of n limited number of special acts, no new buildings have been authorized. Tho super delayed from ono rauao or nnothor, that until this year there hns up pearcd no substantial diminution In the number and cost of public build ings. This year there Is a sudden falling off, which will bo still morn pronounced next year, unless thore Is new public building legislation In tho meantime, but of this there Is llttb likelihood. Hocrotary McAdoo haj nnnnuiired vigorous opposition to om nibus bills, and while tho huuin pnssnd u bill of that sort In the last congress, It proceeded no further. In that bill It was proposed to nulho rlni buildings for Hood River, Klam ath Falls and Corvallls, nnd to pur- rhnsw n site nt Oregon City. Noim of these ambitions Is likely to bo realized III tho present session.
