INITIATIVE PROPER REMEDY.

Determined to stop the Normal
School graft, even if they have to
abolish the Normal Schools, and put
other state institutions to great in
convenience, one body of citizens pro-
poses to appeal to the referendum.
Another body of citizens, who are not
willing to punish all for the offenses
of few, proposes a less sweeping but
not less effective measure, through
the initiative. The Oregonian is sure
that a bill can be framed under the
initiative that will meet the situation.
The general desire is to veto the
Normal School appropriation. The
referendum will not do it, 1t appears
to be clear, from the attitude of the
state authorities, that they will feel
justified under the state law in issuing
certificates of Indebtedness for all the
institutions benefited by the appropri-
alton bill now sought to be attacked.
To be sure, if the bill were to be voted
down by the referendum, the public
sense of outrage would be expressed,
but that is all The next Legislature
might or might not heed it, But if,
under the initiative, a measure is
offered abolishing the Normal Schools,
or, what is better, prohibiting the
Legislature from creating more than
one school, the desired end will be
specifically accomplished. Let US,
then. have the initiative, if we are to
have anything. Let the public say
what is to be done with the Normal
Schools, and let the state Insane
Asylum, Penitentiary, Reform School
and the others be permitted to escape
the general public wrath. -Oregonian.
Polk County observer. (Monmouth, Polk County, Or.) 1888-1927, 1905-03-10

Dallas undertaking to build county
roads at her own expense. Such
move would be impracticable, and no
one expects it of the town. The first
thing to be done is to put the streets
of Dallas 10 first-class condition, and
when this work IS accomplished it will
be time to begin work on the roads
leading into town. The city crusher
can be rented to the road districts at
low rate, or even loaned free of any
charge whatever, and crushed rock
can be hauled and spread on the
county roads instead Of gravel. When
the farmers once see the practical
benefits of the use of crushed rock on
the streets of the town, they will not
be slow in joining in the improve
ment of the country roads, and no
trouble will be encountered in secur-
ing a sufficient number of wagons
and teams, without cost, to keep the
crusher running to its capacity. The
work will become mutual. The town
will help the farmers, and the farmers
will help the town, and, almost before
we are aware of it, the county will
have several miles of permanent
roads. After the good work is once
under way, it will never cease-the
people will not permit it to cease-and
even the County Court will at last be
obliged to admit the 'error of its
way' and join in the movement by
purchasing two or more crushers for
general use in the county. But, as in
all important enterprises, it is neces-
sary for someone to take the lead, and
the OBSERVER sincerely hopes that the
people Of Dallas will take this i'm
portant honor upon themselves by
voting to buy rock-crusher without
further delay.

we're taunted and jeered at every tuLp'
and as the train pulled out from lhe
station. a mob of O. A. G. students
and town hoodlums, STOPPING TO the
moral level of sewer-rats, gathered up
mud from the streets and threw II IN
TO the faces and on the clothing OF
passengers on the platforms who hau
not vet found seats in the crowded
cars. No city officer was sent to quell
the disturbance, and one CorVallls
newspaper afterwards had the atfront-
cry to uphold the rioters, saying III
effect that mud will brush off when
it gets dry"
The tough element attempted TO re-
peat these tactics last Friday nlght
but were promptly called down by one
or two determined Dallas men ana
compelled to behave themselves until
an armed officer arrived and took
them in hand. Had this help not
arrived promptly, Corvallis might
have had a few more hoodlums to
bury.
The OBSERVER regrets to recall these
unpleasant facts, and would not men
tion them here but for the arrogant
attempt of the Corvallis writer in the
Telegram to place the people of Dallas
in a false light. While he was telling
the story of the incidents OF the
Dallas-Corvallis game, he should
have told it all.
