    Statue Typifying Pioneer of West ts
Gift of Joseph N. Teal to University
A statue “typifying the real pioneer of
Ihe west” will be unveiled on the Uni
versity of Oregon campus within the
next two years. It will be the gift of Jo
seph N. eal, of Portland, who has com
missioned A. I’himister Proctor, the dis
tinguished eastern sculptor, to model the
memorial.
“It has long been my desire to express
my admiration and respect for the Ore
pon pioneer,” says Mr. Teal in his letter
to Judge R. S. Bean, chairman of the
board of regents. “The pioneer repre
sents all that is noblest and best in our
history. The men and women who saved
the west for this country were animated
by the highest motives. Their courage,
foresight, endurance and industry sould
eveT be an inspiration to the youth of the
country.
“I therefore propose to erect a me
morial, which, it seems to me, should
Hand on the campus of our great insti
tution of learning, the University of
Oregon, where for years to come the ris
ing generation will have before them a
[leininder of those to whom they owe
every opporunity they enjoy.
“It is my sincere desire and hope that,
I as the genius of St. Gaudens has typi
fied in imperishable bronze the Puritan,
ihe genius of Proctor will in like de
gree typify the pioneer. Should my plan
meet with the approval of the board of
regents of the University, I would re
quest that at the proper time and in con
currence with Mr. Proctor a place be
cu signated on the University grounds
upon which the monument may be
erected.”
Judge Bean, on behalf of the regents
and faculty this week wrote Mr. Teal
that his desires would gladly be com
plied with. In his letter he commented
on the peculiar appropriateness of this
gift coming from the son of a pioneer,
and a man who has done so much to fur
ther the public interest in his state.
“It was a sincere and deep feeling for
the pioneers nnd for the University that
prompted this entirely unsolicited gift of

Mr. Teal's, ns I well know from long
and close association with him.-’ A. C.
Dixon, of the executive committee of
the regents. “In a historic way it couples
the name of Mr. Teal with those of
Henry Villard, the builder of the North
ern Pacific, and Judge Matthew P.
Deady, first president of the regents. It
draws attention to the opportunity and
the necessity that public men should have
t heart the interests of their public in
stitution of learning.”
The time of the presentation of the
All-Oregon historical pagent on the
University campus at commencement
time may possibly be chosen as the time
for dedicating to the purpose the site of
the monument. The Pageant itself will
be in the nature of an interpretation of
the spirit of the Oregon pioneer.
A. Phimister Proctor, the sculptor
chosen by Mr. Teal, is a recognized lead
er among American artists in the fields
of animal life nnd Indian studies. Among
his American works are t,he tigers at the
entrance to Princeton University.
