After all 1t may be possible that the
Monmouth Normal school board may
be able to prevent the secretary Of
state from referring to the people at
the next election a bill making a $780,
900 appropriation for the school, for
attorneys interested in the subject
believe they have have solved the
whole problem
The solution, they believe, lies in
the institution OF a new suit to re-
strain the secretary of state. A suit
of this kind was originally commenced
by the school, but in the name of
private party an1 this does not con-
form to late decision Of the supreme
court holding that a suit must be in
stituted in the name Of a state officer.
The state failed to make an appeal
from a judgment of the circuit court
and members Of the board for awhile
considered the advisability of bring
ing mandamus proceedings against
the secretary of state to compel him
to pay the appropriation on the
ground that the judgment in the cir
cult court had become final. When
they would appear before the supreme
court however, this Judgment would
likely be declared void.
By the institution Of new~sult in
the name of the district attorney
however, they believe, in fact they are
confident, they can win. The supreme
court held that the work of seven cir
culators in the Oregon university
case was fraudulent, and would be
compelled to hold that their work in
securing names for the petitions to
refer the Monmouth Normal school
board would also be fraudulent. This
being the case, 1t would bring the
number of signers on the petitions to
refer the Monmouth Normal school
bill below that required by law. In
addition to that the attorney-general
and other attorneys representing the
state practically admitted that suffi-
oient number df signatures were
fraudulent to bring the number below
that required by law and In the light
of the supreme court decision in the
Oregon University case and this adj
mission, they would not be in a posi-
tion to contest the point Should they
take an appeal then the supreme court
would have to abide by its former
opinion relative to the number OF
fraudulent names

The Portland, Eugene & Eastern

That it will pass and secure the sig

This city will leap to the front as
one of the greatest interurban towns

If all the lines built in all directions

this a city Of $4,000 to 10000 people

If the Hartman system cannot build

Word was received in this city late
last night that Carl Barr, the 13-year-
old son of T. NJ. Barr, the plumber,
Of this city, was seriously injured
yesterday afternoon about 5 o'clock at
Newport by bank caving on him.
The report came over the leased wire
controlled by the United Press, and as
soon as Mr.. Barr learned Of the acci-
dent he endeavored to get in commu-
nicaton with his wife by telephone,
but failed to get service. The tele-
graph line was not in service either,
and 1t was not possible to learn the
extent Of the lads injuries. No report
has so far been received from Mrs.
Barr, who is there with the lad, and
this leads relatives in this city to be-
lieve that the injuries are not of as
serious a nature as at first supposed.
The report stated that when uncoy-
cred the young boy was unconscious.
r. NJ. Barr left for Newport this
morning at $3.50 and should arrive
there at / o'clock.
