FOE STATE UNIETY.
( Kast Oregon ian, PeiidMon. Or.;
It i to x: niowrely hutd ttint the
voter of OregoD s 1 Inivtmity
of Oregon appropriation bill at the
eoniinif election. The hill will b on the
official ballot for a referendum vote
Oregon cannot afford to have it aiii
that vhe refilled to btiihl up le-r tttate
iiniveriitv. She cannot afford to drive
her young men orl women to Wash
jug ton and Idnho to seen re a bighei
t-d neat ion.
I'nton Kepiibliean, Feb. 1: Among the
referendum bill that frill eome lx-fun-
Ihe people this spring will be on that
deals with the appropriation for t In
state, university at Eugene, and
hH the signs are misleading it will be
appro ved by an overwhelming major
ity, and it is up to eastern Oregon to
do its part in this matter. A state
that atrarigls its educational insti
tutions is a good one to get out of.
and Oregon does not propose to be in
that class.
Inily Herald, Columbia. Mo.: In Ore
gon tin referendum has been invoked
by persons hostile to the Htate univer
ity to tie up the appropriations for
that institution. At the last general
assembly of Oregon a bill was passed
increasing the university appropriation
from $47, to 1J.,,00. The bill had
practically a unanimous vote in the
general nsnemhly. -Now, however, it
must, upoo petition from a number of
voters, be approved at the November
election. Ju the meantime, of course
the university suffers. To have the
people veto the legitimate appropriation
hill would not only cripple high educa
tio nio Oregon, but lie a blow to tin
system of referendum. It is to be hoped
that there will be no such result.
Eugene Register: The people of Ore
gon are rousing up to the fact that to
striko at the state university is to
wound he slate in a vital spot and in
flict au injury from which it will take
yearn to recover. Nothing would giv
Oregon a blacker eye with intending
homeseekers all over the Cm. .11 than foi
the voters to any they are opposed to
higher education. If eople who livi
in Oregon, or come to this state, havi
to send their sons and daughters to out
side universities in order to give them
a complete education. Ihey will be di
potted lo move to the states where sue)
means of cduentiou are upheld with
pride by the M-ople. To carry th,
referendum against the slate iir.iv.riU
will be Ihe beginning of n genera'
movement against all forms of adauc
ed education, finally resulting in elirn
ination of nil but public schools. II
Oregon should become the only slat)
in the I'nion without a state univer
sity, it would Ih the one state held ii
to worn by the whole civilized world
as the spot on the Pn.ifir coait tr
stay away from as they would evd
a land infested with the plagii.

hovers of railroad grant lands from
the Op-gun k California may be at

under the Knllon resolution, iiiithoriz
ing the attorney general to begin suits
to enforce the compliance with the
terms of the grants namely, that lands
shall be sold for an acre in hts of
uot more than ! acres to each pur
chaser, and to actual svttlers only.
This double authority conferred on
the department of justice by the res
lution greatly concerns holders of the
lands, wh have obtained their tracts
from ihe railroad in violation 0 thew
terms. Xiarly 70,0o0 acre have ln-en
sold by tit's, railroad in violation of
these t' rnis, and much of these lands
contiiu the most valuable timber in
th) Hiit'. The Ms-Hors have sub

The resolution also authorizes the at

as to the lands granted to the Coos Hay

road from Hofoburg to Cm Hay. H
Ihe terms of that grant the land wen
to be sold for not more than '-,.. an

These restrictions have been violated
like those attached to the railroad
lauds, by sale in bulk and at higher

ORCHARD
We are al.le t. offer for a few tlays tlie most desirable
vomic on-hard within a few miles of Medford, which
we have been able to otter our customers for a year,
and within reach of the man with reasonable eapital.
The tract consists of 2TJ acres of on-hard land, with
tiO acres in cultivation and 4" acres in orchard of th-i
rL'ht varieties of fruit, just coining into- bearing.
Thirty acres of the orchard is in Smtzenberg and New
town apples and Cornice pears. Fifteen acres in
prunes, with good dryhouse on premises. Fully 60
acres more of good fruit land on the tract, covered with
brush, but with enough firewood on same to pay for
clearing and setting to fruit. .Now is the time to act in
this matter, for values are advancing so rapidly that
onlv the rich can afford an orchard in this valley in a
few years. AVhy shouldn't values advance, when the
right kind of an orchard is yielding such fabulous re
turns ?
