Or maylie he'll hire a warehouse. . f r Senator Kiddle is being mentioned as the likely president of the senate at the next legislative session. Why not? Fred has become one of the outstanding leaders of the senate in the short space of two terms. lie is popular and competent and well versed in legislative procedure and organization. Presidency of the senate is certain to come to him in the next two or four years. - SLOW ON REGENT CONSOLIDATION The legislature has taken hold of the scheme 'to consoli date the regents of the university, state college and normal schools into one body to govern higher education in Oregon and seems to be intent on putting the plan into effect with out knowing very much about it. Today the house was scheduled to take up the question, the senate having passed it previously. Many advantages appear on tho surface of the plan. With only one board of regents, much of the present controversy between boards would be eliminated. There would be a cen tralized control and some economy, perhaps, both in money and1 f!f educational effort. But the change is revolutionary in Oregon. It would be far-reaching in influence, and would or could affect the lives and prosperity of practically everyone in tho state. It's not a movement to be started, huiricd through and dropped as n finished job in tho short space of two or three weeks. Ed ucation is one of the primary foundations of the 'state, and unything affecting it as intimately as a consolidation of regents should receive more attention, more study than this plan has had up to the present time. What states have a consolidated board of regents govern ing all state schools ? What is the plan of organization in those states? What has been their experiences? Do the peo ple and the educators therein feel that the system is success ful? Has tho educational service provided under this cen tralized system been more beneficial ? If it has lcen success ful in some slates and unsuccessful in others, what arc the reasons in each instance and what are the differences in plan? These and dozens of other questions relating to a scheme foriono board of regents should be answered in great detail before any definite action is taken. A survey to gather all tho pertinent facts on the proposal should be undertaken. A ' iuupaign to present these facts to the people as well as to ll .0 legislators should lie undertaken. There should bo some definite public opinion on the subject before action is taken. - A plan that is right in its general aspects can lie ex tremely damaging to the stale's best interests, by inadequate mid poorly conceived details. A consolidate lxmid of regents, it seems to The Observer, has nuieh of merit to recommend it in general. But we have many doubts about the details under which such an organization should be formed. And we are very fearful of the results unless a careful study is made by coniictent men to insure a plan thai has piwed successful under similar circumstances. The idea of consolidation is not new. Other states have tried it, some to their benefit r.nd some to their great sorrow. Mul Oregon should profit by the mistakes, experiences and . i.t fosses of others. What the ('ate of the bill will be in the hou;;e, we cannot predict at this time but the governor will be entirely justified in a veto if it is passed without more exhaustive investigation and study than the plan h;'s had so far. Mr. Patterson is, wc are sure, in favor of the general proposal, but we are equally sure that ho is against a hasty and uniformed exe cution of it. Oregon can well put in another year or so sur veying the entire educational structure of this slate and oth ers and can safely delay definite action on such an important measure. ' WASHINGTON.
