The following resolutions were here passed unani mously,' amid cheers and the univer sity yell;. "We, the students of the University of Oregon, - in mass meeting assem bled, do hereby express our pride in being members of the body politic of Oregon. We call attention to the fact that an -understanding of the value and -need of higher education rests with no class or caste in Oregon, but is diffused among the entire popula tion, and we believe that in no state is there a firmer foundation than this on Which to build for the future. "We express our admiration for the aule and loyal service performed by the press of the state, which was all but a unit in clearly understanding and effectively and truthfully present ing the immensely Important issue at stake. "We regard as leaders whose noble example we shall in our lives strive to follow, those disinterested, energetic, private interests to be served, and no possible personal reward to be gained, gave freely and liberally of their money, their time and their enthusi- asm with thought only of the welfare of their state and of posterity. "We regard as vastly significant for the future of education in Oregon the fact that one of the' most energetic leaders of the campaign in behalf of the university is a regent of the Ore gon Agricultural college, and as still more significant the fact that the c.ity of Corvallis returned a handsome ma jority in favor of the university meas ures. We attribute this in no small degree to the broad-mindedness and wise patriotism of our fellow students at the Oregon . Agricultural college, and as students at the University of Oregon we wish thus publicly to ex-pi-ess our appreciation. , : ''We furthermore take this occasion; of pledging to the, state of Oregon our renewed loyalty, and of affirm ing again our determination that in us the people of the state shall And the the sacrifices they have made for higher education will redound many fold to the public advantage." ; The resolutions then closed with a repetition of the well known "Oregon pledge," by which the student dedi 'cates himself to the welfare of the state.
