LA GRANDE OREGON ridiculous sum It is undertaking to care for about 400 students, practical ly a." from families of moderate means; for those who can afford it, rather send their sons and daughters to an Institution so handicapped by stinginess and shortsightedness, nat urally send them to well-equipped uni versities and colleges in other states. The result is that Oregon sends to in stitutions beyond its borders in pro portion to Its population more of its young people than does any otner state in the union. That It retains on ly those who cannot afford to go else where is Indicated by the fact that CO per cent of the boy students of Its university and many of the young women are working their way through supporting themselves in order to get the education they want. The only way the university can make .both ends meet is by doing without really necessary equipment and by paying its faculty less than any other state pays any every one knows that profes sional salaries are at best disgracefully low. In other words Oregon is denying to the very class that has most pluck and . ambition, the very class that as the history of this country demon strates has been of most value to it, an dbeen its greatest glory, a fair chance as compared with that offered the same class In most other states It has pretended to maintain a uni versity and has thereby suggested to these young men and young women that they could get there the higher education which they longed for. But it has only placed at their disposal the meager Instructions and equipment which less than $50,000 a year affords, It robs them, under false pretenses, of a certain part of the years they spend there by giving them short measure. !
