Yesterdays opinion of tho Supreme

Saved by Reason Rule.

MANY arguments are pressed in vari-
Gus forms Of statement which in sub
stance amount to contending that the
statute cannot be applied under the facts
of this case without impairing rights of
property and destroying the freedom of
contract or trade. which is essentially
necessary to the well-being of society
and which 1t Is insisted Is protected by
the constitutional guaranty Of due proc
ess of law. But the ultimate founda-
ton of all these arguments is the as
sumption that reason may not be resorted
to in interpreting and applying the
statute, and. therefore. that the statute
unreasonably restricts the rights to con-
tract and unreasonably operates upon the
right to acquire and hold property. AS
the premise is demonstrated to be un-
sound by the construction we have given
the statute, of course, the propositions
which rest upon that premise need not
be further noticed.
so far as the arguments proceed upon
the conception that in view OF the gener-
atty of the statute 1t is not susceptible
Of being enforced by the courts because it
cannot be carried out without q judicial

the acquisition by that company OF the
shares of the stock OF the other corpora
tons in exchange for its certificates.
THE vast amount Of property and the
possibilities of far-reaching control which
resulted from the facts last stated are
shown by the statement which We have
previously annexed concerning the parties
to the trust agreement OF 1882, and the
corporations whose stock was held by the
trustees under the trust and which came,
therefore, to be held by the ASew Jersey
corporation.
But these statements do not. with
accuracy, convey an appreciation Of the
situation as 1t existed at the time of
the entry of the decree below. since
during the more than ten years which
elapsed between the acquiring by the
New Jersey corporation of the stock
and other property which was formerly
held by the trustees under the trust
agreement the situation. of course, had
somewhat changed-a change which
when analysed in the light Of the proof
we think establishes that the result OF
enlarging the capital stock Of the New

ROSE FESTIVAL MORE
ELABORATE THAN EVER

Portland, Or.-Decorations for
Portland's annual Rose Festival,
June 5-10, will be more elaborate
than ever before, according to plans
now being made by the business
houses for Frightening up the down
town streets. The festival colors are
leaf green and petal pink. but this
year the national colors will be used
extensively as well. Several of the
larger business houses on the line
Of the parades have already made ar
engagements to have their places dec-
GRATED deliberately and some OF them
will spend several hundred dollars in
dressing up their establishments.
One department store will convert
an entire block into a temporary
rose garden. Large vases or jardi-
nieres will be placed al short inter-
walls along the curb entirely around
h block and bloomlng rose bushes
will be placed in them for the entire
week. Lodges and various interests
vii have special designs, the Elks
planning to weave the royal purple
Of Elkdom into the color scheme,
while the Lumberman's building will
feature the designs of the Hoo Hoos.
There will be sharp rivalry between
the business houses of 9Th and 7th
streets as to which will have the more
beautiful decorations, the various es-
adjustments vieing with each other
in producing the best effects.

THE sPENDTHRIFT,
AT OREGON TONIGHT

The new play by Porter Emerson
Browne, THE S~pendthrift.' which
Frederic Thompson will present to-
night at the oregon theater, has for
its leading theme, the wasteful ex-
t~ravagance of the present genera
ton. Theodore Roosevelt and Cardi-
nal Gibbons, nave presented their
views in different articles Mr..
Browne presents his in the form of
a drama. In his new play the au-
thor ~endeavors to show the conditions
which obtain and the results which
follow the latter day desire to "live
up to position" when the wife is not
n mother and the home is not a home
in the full sense of the word. In
THE S~pendthrift" the admiration OF
men and the envy of women mean
more to the wife than the society of
her husband. A new motor-a gown
town n country houses-these
she must have The fact that her
husband spends his days and nights
planning means to satisfy her vani-
ties does not interfere with her pleas
ures. After years of toll he finds that
life has been wasted In securing the
little things which vanish as soon as
they are obtained, and that he has
"a wife who is not a wife nor moth
er" and who, by her mad Indulgence
has plunged him to the verge Of
bankruptcy. Then, and not until
then, h realizes what she has been
striving for. Her life has been vast
ed, n almost too late she, too,
Graves the real things-children and
a real home.
A pretty little auxiliary love story
between the wife's sister and the
husbands brother proves the asser-
ton that the home built on the cor
nerstone Of true love and sacrifice
Will become the home Of happiness.
Mr.. Thompson has given the play
a splendid production. and has Sc
lected an exceptionally strong cast of
players to interpret the different
roles, including Doris Mitchell, Lion
ell Adams, Matte Ferguson, Albert
Sackett, G~wendolyn Piers, Forrest
Orr, Alice Kelly and William Sullivan.

OREGON IN MARKET
FOR 10000 CHICKENS

Portland, Or.-The state of Ore
gon may soon be in the market for
10000 chickens. Preliminary inquiry
has been made as to the possibilities
of poultry raising at the various state
institutions n it is quite probable
that the various farms will be stock
ed soon.
To supply the reform school, the in
sane hospital, the tubercular santa
rum and the feeble minded instltu-
ton with poultry farms would require
between 5000 and 10. hens, ac-
cording to the estimate made by Prof.
James Dryden, head of the depart
ment Of poultry husbandry at the
Oregon agricultural college, and that
institution will cooperate fully In
helping those institutions to raise
their own poultry and eggs

Ability to Swim Saves 2.

La Grande, Or.-What would have
been a fatality had it not been for a
knowledge of swimming occurred
yesterday at Riverside Parks when a
canoe in which were Miss Grace Car
bine, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. E. z.
Carbine, and her cousin, Warren
Weight. suddenly upset. Both went
into 10 feet of water.
Mr.. Weight can swim but slightly,
t~hough~he reached shore in safety
after a hard struggle. Miss Carbine
tried to hang to the slippery canoe,
but lost her hold and, though already
chilled to the bone by her premature
dip, struck out for the shore, some
distance away, arriving there before
another canoeing party could reach
the scene.
