At the last session of the Oregon legislature it passed an annual ap propriation of $125,000 for the sup port and maintenance of its state university. In the past, the univer sity had been struggling along on an annual appropriation of $47,500, the smallest, we believe, of any state in the union. It has an enrollment of 400 students, and that is also prob ably the smallest of any of the state universities, and explains why Ore gon sends more students out of its boundaries to be educated than any other Btato In the union. The appropriation of $125,000 seemed so large that It caused the farmers of the Willamette valley to open their eyes in astonishment and they at once called for a referendum on the bill. As a result the appro priation is tied up until their elec tion on Juno 1G, 190S, when the peo plo will approve or reject the bill. While not all of the farmers will re ject the bill many are inclined to do it now and will bo aided by ad vocates of other schools, some not in favor of progress and a few dis gruntled politicians. It behooves the people of Oregon, who are inclined to progress, to wake up and save their university for business reasons if for none other. We have in Illinois a university that the legislature appropriates sev eral millions of dollars annually to without one word of protest, and as people are not in tho habit of giving something away for nothing, or al lowing their representatives to, ei ther, thon their must bo good re turns from tho money Invested. And there is. If it should happen that a protest would bo raised against any appro priation for the university there would at once appear at tho capital of the btalo a lobby composed of every manner and kind demanding thnt tho University of Illinois bo not crippled. What has been accompllhsed in Il linois by her state university may bo repeated in Oregon if tho people will care for their stato university as they should. As said before tho University of Oregon Is about tho smallest of the stato institutions, but it is doing well considering tho limited amount of money It hns. Tho members of tho faculty aro not well paid, neither has it tho equipment It should have, but instead of tho farmers laying a straw In its way they should become its warmest supporters and within a few years tho institution would grow and prove tho blessing to that country that the university of this stato has to Illinois, not only from tho educa tional standpoint, but to tho smallest industry.

Tom stuck his little salt cellar into his eye, looked at the In testines of the watch and then queri ed: "Where did you get it?" "From a mail-order house," was the reply. "Hump! That's what ails it!" said Tom, as he turned away. "Yes," confined Mrs. A, "I find it very profitable to give my husband a dressing down occasionally. I gave him one to-day." "But how is it profitable?" quer ried Mrs. Z. ."Why, he generally gives mo a dressing up." "Dressing up?" "Yes; to get mo In a good humor again he promises me a new Spring gown, a new outing suit and a new Easter, hat." Tho average Coos Bay man is as anxious to make money as the aver age Coos Bay woman is to spend it Son Pa, what do chey havo a "Best Man" at a wedding for? Father To help out the bride groom down and out. "Woman," remarked the old bach elor at the Millicoma, "Is a creature of many moods." "My wife isn't," rejoined tho Mar ried One. "She is always in the im perative mood." COl'XTV COMMISSIONER. M. J, Krantz, who is a candidate for tho Uopubllenn nomination for county commissioner, has lived in Coos county for 3ii years. Ho help ed assess tho county two years ngo and is thoroughly familiar with all sections. Ho lias been prominently identified with road building and is ti bellover in good roads. "Aw, I suppose you don't keep puppy biscuits in this benighted vil lage? ' asked a new arrival on the Plant who was followed by a dog. of a Coos Bay grocer. "Oh, yes, sir. In a bag, or eat'em here, sir?" Nerve, Sure Enough. "The nerviest individual thnt ever 1 encountered," says ox-Senator Mason of Illinois, "was a chap that dashed Into an accommodation train running from Chicago to Evanston on an occa slon when I was occupying a scat ncai tho dour. "Just before this person appeared iu my car the otlier pahs-'ciiger or two and myself had beard a .idling In the train shed, In tho confusion of wincu wo beard some one shout, 'Stop tnief.' "Well, when this person did scanipei Into my car lie looked about for an In staut with every appearance of a hunt ed nnlmnl. Then ho dived under my seat, exclaiming: " 'Sir, I rely upon your honor! " Lipplneott's. Might Bo With tho Buttors. "I hope," said the new made widow, with n dry sob, "that poor Thomas won't be ranged with the goats lustead of the sheep." "Dear madam," replied the consoler, "your dear late partner was a truly good man." "Yes, I know he was; but, no matter whore he was or what he was doing, Thomas would butt in." He Wanted to Know the Worst. A miner who was suffering with dyspepsia consulted a doctor and took bis prescription to a druggist. "Well, bow much?" said the miner when the prescription was finished. "Let's see," began the druggist. "It's .$1.10 for the medicine, 15 cents for the bottle. That makes" lie hesitated, and the miner said Im patiently: "Well, hurry up, boss. Put n prlco on the cork and let us know the worst." Ladies' Homo Journal. DEAL ESTATE TRANSFERS. "The Frolicsome Baste." A lady and gentleman took n short excursion somewhat early one morn ing, and tho horse commenced kicking In such an extraordinary way that, In stead of becoming alarmed, they laugh ed heartily at tho oddity and obstinacy of tho animal, which, aided by the apologies and explanations of the driv er, were ludicrous. "Look now, ma'aui, It's the quietest baste In Ireland" (kick, kick), "but it's a small taste frolicsome out of play" (kick, kick, kick). (Aside to the horse) "I'll glvo it to ye, ye baste, when I git yo home, to be exposing me this way." (Aloud) "It's the blood ye see, sir, tho rale quality blood that's In it suro his mother won the plate at tho Curragh o' Klldare, and It's only too quiet this crajthuru is" (kick). (Aside) Ah, CATO'S FOLLOW-LP SYSTEM. By Herbert Kaufman. If a man lambasted you on the eye and walked away and waited a week before ho repeated tho per formance, ho wouldn't hurt you very badly. Between attacks you would have an opportunity to recover from the effect of tho first blow. But If he smashed you and kept mauling, each impact of his fist would find you less able to stand the hammering, and half a dozen jabs would ptobably knock you down. Now, advertising Is, after all, a matter of hitting tho eye of the pub lic. If you allow too great an Inter val to elapse between insertions of copy, the effect of tho first advertise ment will have worn away by the time you hit again. You may con tinue your scattered talks over a stretch of years, but you will not de rive the same benefit that would result from a greater concentration. In other words, by appearing in print every day you are able to get the benefit of the impression created the day before, and as eacn piece of copy makes its appearance the result of your publicity on the reader's mind Is more pronounced you mustn't stop short of a knock-down impres sion. Persistency is the foundation of advertising success. Regularity of insertion is just as important as clever phrasing. The man who bangs on is the man who wins out. Cato the Elder is an example to every mer chant who uses the newspapers and should bo an Inspiration to every storekeeper who does not. For 20 years he arose daily in the Roman Senate and cried out for the destruc tion of Carthage. In the beginning he found his confreres very un responsive. But he kept on every day, month after month and year after year, sinking into the minds of all the necessity of destroying Car thage, until he set all the Senate thinking upon the subject, and in the end Rome sent an army across the Mediterranean and ended the reign of tho Hannibals and Hamil cars over Norther Africa. The per sistent utterances of a single man did it. The history of every mercantile success is parallel,. Tho advertiser wi.o does not let a day slip by with out having his say Is bound to be heard and have his influence felt. Every insertion of copy brings stronger returns, because it has the benefit of what has been said be fore, until the public's attention Is like an eye that has been so re peatedly struck that the least touch of suggestion will feel liko a blow.

Ashland is dry by a largo majority already, while Medford is pretty evenly divided, with the rural precincts pretty suro to return a strong dry majority.
