MARRIED MONDAY.
Harrington.-Swann Nuptials
Celebrated, ~

A ripple of surprise passed
through Corvallis circles Mon
day evening, when the news
went the rounds that Claude V.
Swami, the old star on the bas-
ketball team at OAC, had been
married that afternoon and had
left with his bride on the eve
ming train for Ashland, where
the young couple will reside.
At O'Clock Monday afternoon
at the home of the brides par
ents on Fifth and Van Buren
streets, Miss Myrtle E. Harring-
tom was united in marriage to
Claude V. Swami, Rev. D. II.
Leech, of the Methodist church,
performing the ceremony. The
wedding was very quiet and was
witnessed by only theimmediate
relatives of the happy couple.
Mr.. and Mrs. Swami left on the
evening train for Ashland, where
the former has been secured to
coach the basketball team of the
Ashland State Normal the com
ing season. So quietly were all
particulars carried out and the
necessary arrangements made,
that not the slightest suspicion
dawned in the minds of their
most intimate friends
The bride is the daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Harrington,
old and respected residents OF
this city, and is an estimable
and charming young lady. She
is graduate Of the Oregon Ag-
gricultural College and was for
several years a most successful
member on the girls basketball
team. The groom is the only
son of Mr.. and Mrs. w. G. Swami,
numbered among Corvallis best
citizens, and is a young man of
worth. He is also an OAC grad
uate and her greatest basketball
player and figured as coach of
the famous Alaska basketball
team wnicil toured the United
States last season. He was also
tember Of OAC's athletic team.
Both bride and groom have
host of friends in this city who
wish them all happiness and
success in the new role of hus-
band and wife.

OAC. FIGHT FOR BIG GAME.
Corvallis Will Send a Large
Delegation. Hard Game.

Everything seems to be pro-
crossing in fine shape at the OAC
athletic field. Coach Norcross
will spare no pains to make the
contest exceedingly interesting
for the U. of O., and in order to
satisfy himself as to the perfect
condition of his great football
machine the boys will pass a
final grand review under the
criticism of Sickle, Smithson,
Pilkington and Dow Walker.
The boys realize that U. Of o.
will make a desperate effort to
regain lost laurels and hence are
wisely guarding every possible
emergency The people OF Eu-
gene will back their team as
never before and express great
faith in the outcome of the con-
test
1t is said forty cars have been
secured to carry the crowd and
that two thousand Corvallis cit
liens will witness the game. The
cars will be profusely decorated
with bunting and penants- Plans
for big parade from the train
to the athletic field are being
promulgated and the boys will
perform many interesting little
stunts to make things lively.
The big game of football on
the Multnomah field will draw
the largest crowd that ever as
sembled to witness athletic sport
and the game be the most inter
esting from various standpoints-
Great pride is manifested in the
success of OAC by the citizens OF
Corvallis and the trains on Sat
urday will present a gorgeous
display of black and orange the
black, perhaps, being indicative
of the drubblng in store for u.
of 0. on this occasion. Rooters
galore will lend 'encnantment to
the scene and the citizen of Cor
Wallis who stays at home on that
day will 'eertainly be a mighty
lonesome duck. If the Phiio
math burglars should make a
raid on that day they could clean
every business house in the town
without any trouble.

NOVEMBER WEDDING
Celebrated at High Noon Yes
terday.

An 1uIcIeSIlilS WeoQlHS Wds
celebrated yesterday at high
noon at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Emery Allen on South 3rd
street, when their daughter, MISS
Edna, and Charles Shenefeld
were united in marriage.
The rooms were handsomely
decorated for the occasion, Rev.
Evan P. Hughes, of the Congre-
gational church being the Off
ciating clergyman.
The bride was handsomely at
tired in robe of white, with veil,
and the groom wore the conven-
tional black. The young couple
entered the room, unattended,
the wedding march being played
by Miss McBee.
The punch bowl was attended
by Mrs Berchtold, which was
followed by a delicious wedding
dinner.
Many invited guests were pres
ent from this city, and the fol-
lowing were guests from other
places Miss Nina Smith and
Miss Blege, Miss Johnson, A. w.

Michigan.
Many beautiful and costly
presents were plainly visible
thus showing they had been
kindlysremenabered by their host
of friends. The happy couple
took the evening train for Port
land.
The bride is one of Corvallis
best known girls, having spent
her entire life in this city, and
is one of her sweetest singers.
She has made many friends who
will wish her all OF the joys and
pleasures OF welded life. ..-
We have watched the growth
and development of Charley

To Withdraw Tract of Land.

The General Land Office has
decided to withdraw on January
20, 1909, 91,5O0 acres from the
Umpqua Forest Reserve. This
embraces some of the finest
dairying, fruit aud timber lands
in Oregon, being located in Coos
and Western Lane and Douglas
counties.
The dairying and fruit lands
will be subject to the Homestead
Act only, but the timber lands
will be takeu up under the tim
Der and stone law.
One of the peculiar features of
this opening is that squatters
rights will be recognized. After
December 21st, persons may set
tie on the land and prepare to
make it their hone. The rights
of such squatters will be receg-
nized as prior to those who file
Oh January Lutn.
1t is expected that there will
be a great rush for these lands,
owing to the fact that similar
land in that section is held at
from $50 to $500 per acre. The
proposed railroad from Drain to
Marshfield runs directly through
the center of this tract which

1t was learned today that the
suit now pending in the courts
for the purpose of testing the
validity of the initiative and
referendum amendment. to the
constitution involves the validity
not only of all the proceedings
under that amendment, but all
acts OF the Legislature of 1908
and 1905, as well.
One purpose of the suit is to
have the initiative and referen-
dunn declared void because it is
alleged to be in violation of that
section of the United States
Constitution which guarantees
every state representative form
of government. 1t has been
generally assumed that if it
should be declared void such a
decision would carry with it
only those laws and amend.
ments which have been proposed
by initiative. But if the initia-
tive and referendum amend
ment is void not single act of
the Legislatures of 1908 and
1905 is valid, because not one
has an enacting clause, in &C
cordance with the constitutional
requirements. 3"
Before the initiative amend
ment was adopted the constitu-
tion required that the style of all
bills shall be, "Be it enacted by
the Legislative Assembly, of the
State Of Oregon" The Supreme
Court has held that, an act is
void withoutthat enacting clause.
The initiative amendment pro-
vided that the style of every bill
shall be, "Be it enacted by the
people OF the State of Oregon"
In order to be on the safe side,
the Legislature of 1901 put both
enacting clauses on every bill.
The Legislatures of 1908 and
1905 used only the enacting
clause provided by the initiative
amendment, but if the amend
ment is void there is no authori-
ty for the use of such an enact
ing clause, and the old require
ment is still in force. Since the
acts do not contain the old en-
acting clause it is asserted that
they would be void if the initia-
tive and referendum amendment
is void.
The State Supreme Court has
already declared the amendment
valid but the case now pending,
that of the State VS.. the Pacific
States Telephone & Telegraph
Company, was framed for the
purpose of presenting the United
States Supreme Court the ques-
tion of validity of the Oregon
scheme of direct legislation and
the case will be taken to that
tribunal. Many lawyers think
it probable that the United
States Supreme Court will put
its disapproval upon this varia-
tion from representative govern
ment. 1t is possible, of course,
that the United States Supreme
Court might declare all of the
nitiativeandreferendum amend
ments valid except the single
sentence which prescribes the
form of enacting clause, but as
thisais part of the provision for
legislation by the people, doubt
is expressed whether this one
sentence would stand and all the
other provisions fall
