ALBERT HOCAMP TAKEN
SERIOUSLY i'll FRIDAY

Last Friday noon when Mr.. Albert
Hocamp, residing i'm Audubon town
ship, and his helpers laid down to
rest, he wandered away from the
house and could not be found. AT
ter diilgent search was made, con-
tinuing all afternoon and evening,
it was decided by the hunters that
it was all in vain and he might re
turn during the night.
At 900 O'Clock A. M. Saturday, a
general ring was placed on the
lines, announcing that he could not
be found and at 700 O'Clock anoth-
uting told the anxious neighlbolrs and
friends that he had been discovered
DIN his auto in the garage, uncon-
scious. A physician was immedi-
|ately summoned. He remained un-
conscious all thru the day but late
in the evening he came to. He is
unable to explain the circumstanc c.
es and is feeling very poorly. An
operation will be necessary which
will take place in the near future.

all of which will be fully stated in
due season. But in it's work of es-
tablishing and improving our coun-
ty road system under the new law,
the board DIS in a very hard place
much harder in fact than most peo-
pie suppose. While this is true,
it is also true that the new road
law is likewise having a very hard
time of it. 1t, too, should be fairly
Judged, not on the basis of minor
faults, of which it probably has a
good many, but on the basis OF
general results. We really want
better roads, and that very badly
too; and it is hard to see SO many
good men out with their hammers
to knock the present law without
giving it fair trial.

his notice was taken kindly, by 9TH

PRIZES FOR GIRLS
AND BOYS Of OREGON
Committee is at Work to Obtain
Prize Lists-TeaChers' Reading
Circles Are Popular.

To the boy or girl who contributes
the best exhibit of livestock at the
state fair in September the Portland
Union Stock Yards Co. will give
Shetland pony prize, The prize, which
attracted more attention than any 9TH
er at the fair last September, was the
Shetland pony given by Secretary Of
State Olcott. Because Of the interest
that was aroused by this the manage
ment Of the children's exhibits for the
coming fair began early to negotiate
for a similar prize for the coming fair,
The livestock exhibit must consist of
at least one trio or pen of chickens or
ducks, and in addition, two pigs and
a sheep. The boys and girls who COM
pete for the pony will have an oppor-
thnity to compete for several other
valuable prizes also.
In the poultry contest there will be
good prizes for the winning trio Of
each breed. j. M. Garrison offers $5
cash to the boy or girl making the
largest and best exhibit of poultry.
The state poultry association gives n
fine cup for the best pen Of birds, one
male and four females. Poultry Life"
gives a cup for which the children
can compete. Hauser brothers have
agreed to give an air gun to the child
raising the most poultry by June 1.
The boy who shows the best sheep
exhibit will receive q substantial cash
prize and the one who does the best in
the pigfeeding contest, feeding and ex-
hibiting two pigs and furnishing an
account of the process, showing cost,
profits and other items will receive a
liberal prize which will be announced
later, and in the prize list which is to
be published in a short time.
The total value of prizes to be Of
fcred children at the fair this year
will be over $4,000.

The Oregon voters are now quite
well satisfied that they must retain
the initiative and referendum. II any
change be made it should be to en-
large their faw-making and law-re-
pealng powers rather than have them
curtailed.
The operation of the direct rule of
the people may appear a little cum
bersome and expensive, but, as things
now run in this state, it is not only
economical, but absolutely necessary,
to safeguard the peoples rights.
The members of the present state
legislature were elected to represent
the people in the enactment of neces-
sary laws and making needful appro-
priations to meet the expenses Of the
state on a basis Of economy
Some of the members have tried
faithfully to merit the confidence
which their constituents reposed in
them, But insidious forces have been
at work Undue influence has been
exerted through lobbyists and other
channels which has resulted in chang
ing the avowed policy of economy to
one of extravaganza.
Why should those members of our
state Legislature, who accompanied the
special excursion into the state Of
Washington to be shown a stretch of
an automobile boulevard, have per-
mitted themselves to be placed under
the undue influence Of good roads
promoters, Who paid the expenses Of
that special excursion and why was
that glorious" trip arranged? Was it
intended to bring about certain defin-
ite results in the enactment of laws
favorable to some private interests, or
was It an act of some philanthropist
whose identity has not been disclosed ?
Those who have been watching this
and other activities with reference to
shaping the course Of our legislature
are quite convinced that the people
of Oregon must retain the initiative
and referendum power in order that
they may protect themselves against
certain laws which their representa-
tives may already have passed and
enact such other legislation as was
for unknown reasons, passed by.

FOOTBALL OUTLOOK
SOMEWHAT DOUBTFUL
Willamette Has Big Games Sched-
uIed and VIII BE Weakened il
Department Are Removed.

Merwin Paget, manager of william
cites football team for next year,
announces that an excellent schedule
is being arranged for next season.
The first game, which will of course
be with the Alumni, will occur in the
early part of October.
The next game will be with Oregon
on Oct. 28 The date Of the o. A. c.
game is not set definitely, but will in
ali probability be some time in the
early part Of the season. A tentative
agreement HIS been reached with
Washington State College and it is
quite possible they will also be on
the schedule.
Another very strong possibility is
that Whitman will be here for the
Thanksgiving game. Just whether
the faculty will allow Of the proposed
Montana trip for a return game with
the University Of Montana is doubt
full. so that all arrangements for it
are up in the air.
With two or three games with con-
ference colleges practically assured
there is little doubt that the 1913
schedule will be the best and heav-
lest of several seasons II Oregon,
o. A. g. and Whitman can be sched-
uled for games in Salem, the local
followers Of the sport will see a great
improvement over the one-sided class
of games played here the past season
But now that we are assured of a
good schedule, the question is being
frequently asked, "Will we have as
good team as we had the season
that has passed|
There is a large chance that the
team next year may be materially
weakened, for If the college of med
icine and school of law are to go
what has heretofore been the source
of the most valuable football material
will be shut off.
OF last seasons eleven, seven men
were from the medical and law col
leges namely, Captain McRae, Cap
tain-elect Francis Rowland, Erskne,
Day, Belllnger and Watson, The loss
OF these men>would make a place on
the squad that It would be exceed
ingly hard to fill
However, there is one thing very
much in favor of the team and that
is that Dr. Sweetland will in all prob
ability coach It, and this fact alone
will be more than enough to bring
in much new material and to per-
haps cause some of Docs" old stand
bys to register in the college Of lib
eral arts and continue under his
tutelage.

SENATE DEFEATS EIGHT.
HOUR DAY FOR WOMAN

Largely through the influence Of
the Malarkey minimum wage bill.
which has been signed by the COVER
nor, the bill introduced by Represen-
tative Lawrence, providing for an
eight-hour working day for women,
with limit of As hours week, was
defeated in the senate yesterday af-
ternoon.
Three reports on the bill were re-
turned by the committee. In a minor
ity report Kiddle, Day and Wood rec
commended the defeat of the measure
on the ground that the minimum wage
bill rendered the bill unnecessary.
Senator Moser explained his vote
against the bill on the same grounds,
and said that he had been visited in his
office in Portland by a delegation of
working women, who had impressed
upon him well-grounded arguments
against the bill.
Dimick submitted minority report
recommending the passage Of the bill,
while Smith of Coos and Curry rec
commended its passage with amend
ments. There were 10 ayes and 10
nays.
