PLEA FOR APPROPRIATION.,
Communication to Albany Democrat

To the Editor:
What la the matter with aome of
the people of our beloved atate -of
Oregon? Why do they fight against
their own Interests T la It a fact that
our citizens do not believe in educa
tion higher education? And can a
state Institution exist without reason
able support from the state?
I am not opposed to denominational
schools. I believe In them. I am not
opposed to the State Agricultural col
lege. We need that too. In fact, we
need a'.l our schools. But we cannot
do without a university, a place where
girls and boys with limited meana can
get an education that will prepare
them for good positions. Examine It
; ou will the papers that contain the
positions that are filled by the class
of 1907. Now, there are boys, bright
Intelligent boys, who ' are working
their way through college, doing any

Borne writer aatd, through the Ore
gonlan, that the professors of the uni
versity were a set of ungodly men.
That la not true. The teachers are,
from the president down to the assist
ants, members of our leading church
es, with a few exception, and not only
members but better and more eff 1-
Hont men and women I never knew
anywhere. The school does not claim
to be a religious Institution, and yet
they are laying the foundation for a
betterment of. men and women. A
prominent business man told ma a
few days ago that the saloon element
were going to vote against the appro
priation because the professors work
ed so hard in Eugene tor closing the
saloons.
And now why are some taxpayers
making so much noise about the ap
proprlation? Just go to work and
figure out how much more our taxes
will be on account of raising this

I money for the university and you will
wonder why any reasonable man ob
jects to It. Lest you do not under
stand the advantages of the state uni
versity, I will gfve my experience In
this matter. Almost eight years ago
I was left with a little money and
one child to educate. I lived In Al
bany. I love the place, for better
people can be .found no "place on
earth, and It was In that place that
I apent the happiest days of my life
and yet, after I lost everything but my
little girl and a few hundred dollars,
I knew that, although If Ood spared
my health I could make a living, yet
It would be impossible to educate my
child. So I decided to come to Eu
gene, and here with the opportunities
that a state Institution affords, I have
given my daughter an education that
has enabled her to secure a lucrative
position, and has prepared her aa a
university graduated get a situation
In almost any business.

Communication.
Mr. Editor: I notice advertised ex
tensively In Portland papers and else
where, the announcement that In La
Grande Baturday, April 18, there will
be an unholy and spectacular show,
via.: that of a couple being publicly
married at the horse show. It Is to
be sincerely hoped It Is a false state
ment and that no silly persons can
be found who will prostitute the holy
manner. La Grande Is not In need
of such advertising.
Surely no minister could be found
who would so disgrace his holy and
exalted office as to play a second fid
dle side-show such as that Nor
would I think any self-respecting Jus
tice of the peace could be found to do
It. ' J. D. GILLILAN.
