Edi tor Enterprise: It Is an established fact that the greatest duty of a people to Itself Is for the establishment and maintenance of schools for the edu cation of the young. No greater aer vlce can be rendered tothe state of which we are cltlrens than by raising the standard of citizenship In that state. No community or atate which Is slow In building up an educational system can hope to make any great progress along Industrial, aoclal, eco nomic or moral llnei. People must he educated In order to make progreaa. The achoola of Oregon City are at last coming to take their place with other school of the state. Our Pew high achooi building, with the Im proved course of study now pursued. I a credit to any community. Can we not go a step further In thla dlre's tlon and aee that our State University gets the appropriation for which It asks thla present session of legisla ture T Our leglalators are all public-spirited, men and If they belive that their constituents want the appropriation hill pned, they will rote for It- 80 It Is up to the people to let Senator Dlmlck and Uepresentatlvea Jones, Carter and Magone know thnt theirs' hearty aupport cf the bill Is expected. Four years ago an appropriation of 1125.000 wa secured. Since then the attendance haa nearly doubled, requir ing more Instructors and buildings for the accommodation of the greater Student Body. Although nearly $100, 000 per year Is required for University salarlea, the Instructors are not paid as well aa they are In other school of the aame rank, yet every one of them la working up to the limit of time and endurance. The Incidental expense connected with the Unlveralty, In addi tion to the annual expenditure of flOj 000 for book for the library, easily, consume the.balano of the appropria tion and leave no margin for building purposes. The urgent need for new building la apparent to all familiar with the growth of the University. Every Inch Continued on page two. INJURED WHILE COASTING.

Miss' June cnarman, stenographer In tbe First National Bank, was large ly responsible for -the unexpected cap ture of a self-confessed forger shortly before noon' yesterday, and ahe waa quite an unintentional .sleuth, too. Just after the bank opened yester day morning two men came In. one of them presenting a check on a bank at Solo,- Linn county, and drawn by C. ' W.. Beard. The men were unknown and Cashier F. J. Meyer declined to cash tbe paper, . unless he received telegraphic Instructions from tbe ScIo banking Institution. Thla the man said he would obtain and left the bank with hla companion. Not long afterwards, tbe constable at Sclo telephoned Mr. Latourette. at the bank, to bold a man posing as C W.

Thinking it waa the Sclo officer, and that he meant telephone. Instead of telegram. Miss Charman answered that the message had been received, and In a few minutes In walked the forger to get his money. Instead he waa met by Charles E.

He waa recently pa roled from the Oregon atate peniten tiary, and It la aaid hla corect name Is Harry. C. Beard, and that he haa a brother named C W.
