A Fresh Start “Alca jacta est,” the reporters of 49 B. (’. quoted for the words of Caius J. Caesar, when he waded into a muddy creek in Northern Italy to emerge on the other bank facing de cidedly uncertain prospects. Today’s election presents the Uni versity in a situation less serious in the stakes involved, but manifestly parallel in the interesting uncertain ty of the outcome. If the millage bill carries, no one knows what a new Board of Regents will do. There may be an astonishing shake-up of old is sues and new. If is fails, things are equally uncertain. When Caesar took a chance with Pompey, he had nothing on Oregon. But be the outcome of this election as it may, the University will still he here, and here to stay. No one thinks that the state will lightly aban don the valuable buildings and cam pus at Eugene a fifty year start to ward a emit university. A Univer sity is the embodiment of a spirit as much as a creation of physical equip ment, and cannot be made in a day nor transplanted at will. Vastly less probable is it that it will permit the doors of the institution to be closed. The next legislature will at least re new the regular appropriation for maintenance which the University now enjoys. The passage of the millage tax bill means opportunity for growth and expansion. But its defeat no more spells disaster for the University than it does for the Agricultural College. Nevertheless, this is an important day in the history of Oregon. We shall soon know in what direction we are to advance. The captain gives the word today. Tomorrow we make a fresh start.

The answer received from U. of O. might be called a modification but it would mean humble submission for us to consider accepting their prop osition. What semblence is there to their proposition of a binding con tract? None. The second game to be played in Portland—providing a field can be economically procured. Well, what if a field cannot be econ omically secured and if it can be, who will decide whether it is economical or not. Grand chance for a slight disagreement. A loose, slipshod con tract is not what we want. It is es sential that future years be provided for definitely, so that neither school can go astray. It seems as if the students at U. of 0. are absolutely sincere and will ing to have a binding contract, but not so with the faculty. They seem to see only the Eugene horizon and forget that outside that village, there is a far greater number of loyal U. of O. alumni, who are anxious to see justice done than there are students attending U. of O. at present. Our actions have been governed by the popular demand and so they should be for 0. A. C. and U. of O. are state institutions and not local affairs and hence should satisfy the people of the entire state rather than to allow a few petty merchants dic tate directly or indirectly policies so that they might benefit from them. 0. A. C. made a fair, just and hon orable proposition and will not de scend from her present position to meet a substitute which is inferior.— O. A. C. Barometer.
