OREGON COLLEGES
Some of the papers in Oregon
are editorially inclined to find
fault becanse students go from
Gi.;,ou io ulLcr its.:: ?"
tlietr colleges. It is regretable
that young men aiid woiton of
Oregon should do so; but. the
query is. who are to blanii? If
other ststfs have better equipped
or betler ' managed schools
than Oregon, it is theechooU of
Oregon, and not the students,
that should be censured. a Ore
gon's young people have a right
to go whre their time i pent at
school will assure tho best re
sults: and il it is true that any
considerable number cf our boys
and girls are preferring schools
outside their own state to ' ihoBe
within it the cause Hi"refor
ihould oe seriously rf,nsilercd
by those who have the m ttiage
ment of Oregon co)lr; r and
rjniveraities. -
So far as the peoplo ol Ore
gon are proper part.ct to this
icqury it easy be brosdty stated,
lb at from the earliest tt- tilemen,
of this state, "the Oregouiaus
buv taken as deep, if not a
deeier interest in dueitional
uiaiU rs than the ptople of any
nlier new statu. It v,aa the
pretisient aud able work of an
old Oiegonian in 184t, Qainu V
Th irnton, that induced congress
to grant two sections of bind in
nach township of the public do-
rn&iu for common fechoo! fupioit
iQfiead of one aa was the rrle
previous.'
Old settlers. will recull the
effoits of early settlers i t'oM
Oregon to esti.blih high schools,
Academies, colleges and univers
ities. If these tfforts were not
aa successful a$ their promoters
wishtd, can be mere truthfully
attributed to their owu ztnl nud
local -mt ition thaj to want of
ei her. Oumiuencing at Asb-
laiid in Jackson "county the
moot i ouil.em county, then in
ihe a: n e, and eudins wiih
Union county, the then uor;h
weatcrn county, tuost any obi
pionttrcan ret ail from mi inory,
jfithout rtfoienoe to Any record,
mere than a score of bctulcmiei1,
ct'llfg3 and universities thai
were established in early thm
ind passed out ot txislcne f,.i
lack of patronage. The trnubb
was too inueh wop undertaken.
Itwaa found fronisud eitperieiice
that it require? m irethan build

SUJ Wl
and a gn at deal of it
without them Hum bolt, the
Napo'eon of science, could not
have conducted to Buccess an
academy or given therein a
' student the elements of a modern
education. ' ""
The Blue Mountain Univers
ity that lived and died in La
Grande is but a tair sample of
more thaa a (core of others ia
Oregon that might W citad to
prove the folly of trying to
make students or their pareuts
believe that bare walle, empty
book cases and what should be
labratory room filled with rub
bish and a few cheap instrui
inents, can do the woik neces
sary to impart a modern educa
tion. - ' '.""'. ' '"'; :
The fact is even . at this date,
Oregon has too many colleges
and higher '."schools.' tt would
be infinitely better for the cause
of educatiou if we could concen
trate our schools, have fewer,
but better equijped ones, and
not drive our young people from
home to gel what they cannot
