Claim Referendum
Copies Stolen

Because some one stole copies OF
the referendum petition bearing the
names of several thousand Oregon
voters from the office of Attorney
John Veatch of Portland last Satup-
day night, the three-year office act
for directors of public schools Of the
first class went into effect yesterday.
Had the rolls not been taken and
the petitions filed Saturday night,
the law would have been void at
least until November, 1917, when the
voters Of the state would have de-
cided its fate.
The names Of more than 1000 Eu-
gene voters were attached to the PEI
tition asking that the law be stayed,
These were taken to Portland by w.
R. Rutherford, city school superin-
tendent. They, along with those from
Portland and many other parts OF
the state, were in the office Of At
torney Veatch Saturday evening when
Mr.. Veatch went out for dinner.
When he returned several copies Of
the petition were gone. The result
was that petitions bearing the names
of $4,000 legal voters could not be-
filed at Salem Saturday night, ala
though Secretary of State Ben Olcott
was at his office until nearly mid
night. |
"The count Saturday evening show
ed that we had few more than the
required $4,000 necessary names to
keep the measure from going into eff
feet" said Superintendent Ruther-
ford who returned to Eugene yester-
day. "But when several copies OF
the names were stolen nothing furth-
er could be done. Eugene Register.

continue study. August Goth, 1917, in
letter to State Superintendent of
Schools, Mr.. Francis G. Blair says:
This war is making its heaviest draft
upon the educated young men. When

REMARKABLE GET-A-
WAY OF DORT CAR

Talk about getaway; the many
cylindered cars may be quick at it.,
but they will have to go some to beat
the performance Of the sturdy four
cylindered bort on the athletic oval

week.
1t seems eric" Templeton, who is
coaching the Leland Stanford boys
this season, had a bunch of his best
out on the oval last week, when a
bort enthusiast blew along in his car.
The motorist, who by the way is a
friend of "Ric's", was expounding the
good qualities of his car so broadly
that eric" is reported to have said to
him, Suppose you think you can trim
standing start" House, by the way,
is "Ric's" best man this year and
holds a record of 0.10 2-5 seconds for
I the distance. "Surest thing you
I know" said the motorist, and the
crowd gathered around to see the fun
and the subsequent discomforture of
the motorist. But this was one Of the
times when the dope didn't run true
to form, for while House put big
lead on during the first four seconds,
while the motorist was getting his
mount into high, he was all of three
yards in the rear when the tape was
crossed, the bort having made the dis
lance in less than 10 seconds, which
is "going some," as Dave Leigh says,
and Dave Leigh says that anyone who
doesn't believe this story can look at
the San Francisco Chronicle of Mar.
4, and see it all there for himself.
Sounds like a pretty big story, but the
bort is "some car" and no one has
hung anything on Dave Leigh yet, so
we may as we'll believe it.-Adv.

Mr.. Chairman, the pending Smith

aid to vocational education. has been
heralded far and wide as Demo-
cratic measure. The bill will soon
become law, and in the next poll

spoken of by Democratic orators as
one of the great accomplishments of
the Democratic party. and especially
of this administration.

since become known as the Page vo-
cational education bill.
The proverbial uncertainty of
American politics swept into the
, United States Senate a Democratic
majority on March a, 1913; and
Senator Hoke Smith of Georgia, be-
came chairman of the committee on
Education and Labor. Senator Page
took his place in the ranks.
The substance of the Page bill
was introduced by Senator Smith, as
the chairman of the committee on
Education and Labor, following the
report OF commission to investi-
gate the question, and the measure
then became the Smith bill. But let
II ever be said to the credit of Sena-
tor Smith that he has not tried to
deprive Senator Page and other Re-
publicans of the honor of fathering
this great legislation.
The present distinguished chair
man of the Educational committee
of the House, Mr.. Hughes, introdu-
ced a bill for vocational aid along
the lines of the Smith bill, and the
joint measure is now referred to as
the Smith-Hughes bill. Every Re-
publican on the committee on Edu-
cation, of which the gentleman from
Georgia (Mr. Hughes), is chairman,
is giving this bill his enthusiastic
support. Not long ago the brilliant
and able Republican leader, the gem
