INTERCOLLEGIATE GAME
WON BY OREGON 8 TO 0
O. A. c. ACKNOWLEDGES ITS Defeat.
Saturdays Game on Multnomah Field Was
a surprise and Disappointment to
Every Friend of Corvallis Team.

; 3.
"The people of Portland have
always entertained a most kind
ly feeling for the Oregon Agri-
cultural College as an educa-
Etional institution, but tits safe
to say that fswe realized what q
splendid student body was at
tending the college until the
showing made blythe cadets, as
they marched through Portland
streets. Led by a band OF over
80 pieces, over 500 young men,
all clean Of limb and bright of
eye, marched through the busi-
ness district and then hsbanded
in front Of The Oregonian build
ing. ''s,,
It was heart-thrilling sight
to see these young men, soldierly
in their bearing and dressed in
the brown regulation Army uni
form keeping step with the pre-
cision of the well-drilled soldiers.
No wonder there were exclama-
tions of admiration and surprise
by those who crowded the side
walks along the line Of march,
for the showing made by the ca
det students was we'll worthy OF
the praise that was SO openly
expressed. twas as fine a body
young men asconld be gath
cred together anywhere, and SO
closely did they resemble the
regular soldiers in their bearing
that at first many thought the
lads were regular troops until
told differently.
Another fine showing was
made by the Corvallis CONNER
cial Club. They marched in a
body behind the cadets. As
with all good things, the best
was saved for the last, and bring
ing up the extreme rear was a
four horse tally-ho containg the
wives and sweethearts of the
marchers.
The Corvallis rooters were
equipped with varicolored sheets
of cardboard with which they
improvised megaphones, and at
given signal these megaphones
would be reversed from pale
pink and rose color to bright
orange, making most striking
impression upon the spectators.
Before the game started the
Corvallis cadets gave a drill on
the field that earned the ap-
plause of all who saw it. Under
the command Of Captain U. G,
McAlexander, U. S. A. the ca
diets marched on the field, and
formed in three sections, each
representing a letter, o. A. c.
These sections countermarched
in such clever manner that the
formation of the letter stood out
ct all times, and just before leav-
ing the field, the cadets, by drop
ping gilt paper, left the letters
imprinted on the sawdust- strewn
gridiron."

Object Is to Prevent
Dishonest Legislation
PARTY PRINCIPLES UPHELD
Representation in legislature
Would Be Assured in Pro"
'a portion to Strength of Vote,

A. w. Prescott of Salem writes
to the Oregonianthat a plan has
been suggested which, if found
practical in other respects, would
solve the problam eof; preventing
mem bers of one party from regr
istering> as members of another
party, and at the same time furn-
|ish a basis for distributing rep
resentation on q proportional
principle. The plan is that
each party shall be assured rep
resentation in the Legislature
in proportion to its registration.
This would induce every voter
to register honestly his party
amliation and at the same time
determine fairly and equitably
what representation each party
shall have. Under such a sys-
tenn, if any Democrat registered
falsely as a Republican, his par
ty associates would censure him,
instead Of encouraging him, as
has been done in tie past.
In practice the plan would
work something like this: If q
legislative district had five Rep
resentatives to elect, and the
party strength as shown by the
registration should be three to
two, the Republicans would be
entitled to three Representatives
and the Democrats two. Nomi-
nations would be made in the
usual manner, and the election
conducted as now but after the
| votes had been counted, the
three highest Republican candi-
dates and the two highest Demo-
cratic candidates would be de-
clared elected.
| Any plan of proportional rep
resentation would require the
formation OF districts large
enough to entitle them to about
three Representatives at least.
A proportional representation
would be impossible in districts
with only one Representative,
and in most cases, fair distrib-
ution could not be made in dis
ltricts with as few as two Repre-
sentatives. Exact proportion
would be impossible in almost
every instance, for the odd Rep
resentative would always be al
lotted to the party having the
larger fraction of the number of
voters taken as basis of appor-
tionment. Thus, if a district
had 1000 voters and five Repre-
sentatives with theparty strength
divided thus, Republicans 4100,.
democrats 1000, Prohibitionists
1900, Socialists 400, each party
would be entitled to one Repre-
sentative for each 400 voters.
The Republicans would be en-
titled to two Representatives,
with 1900 votes to spare; the
democrats would be entitled to
one Representative, with 600
votes to spare. Neither of the
minor parties would have maj
Or portion of the number of vo-
ters required. This would give
the Republicans three and the
Democrats two Representatives.
The plan of basing proper
tional representation upon reg
istration has been discussed by
men who have given some
thought to the subject, and
though it is open to some obiec-
tions, its advantages are thought
to be as many and as strong as
/ those of any other plan OF divid-
!. ing representation among the
parties.

say that several of the players stayed out

they did not feel the thumbscrews Of
discipline they repeated the perform

1t is related that on one occasion Mr..
Ebbets was talking to Donovan in one

Friends of Donovan claim that his
failure was due to the fact that he was
not allowed to have a free hand, but
this is denied. The truth about the mat
ter is that Patsy was entirely too gem

is, he was not disciplinarian. and as
a consequence he was imposed upon

INDIVIDUAL DRINKING CUP

Each pupil Of the Minot school has
his individual drinking cup. which he
carries in neat little case. The
cup can be closed up SO that It does
not take up much more room than
! common watch. This is a progress
sive move on the part Of our schools
and il one that should prove con
ducive to good health. One Of the
most common diseases Of the day,
ana the most dreaded too, is con.
stump ,tion. and one Of, the most
common methods Of transmitting this
disease, is thru the public drinking
cup. Let consumptive drink from
a cup, and nine chances out of ten,
he will 'eave some of the deadly
germs lurking. in that cup. A healthy
person drinking from the cup may
or may not contract the disease. but
II his system Is in the right condi-
ton for receiving the germs, he
stands pretty good chance Of get
ting it. There are many other diseas-
es as well that can be contracted
thru drinking cups. Consumption
or tuberculosis, is claiming a great
many thousand victims in the United
States every year. about three per-
sons dying from the disease on the
average, every minute in the day.
Think of 1t. It will take the com
bined efforts of ali to- keep the
