CITY OFFICIAL NEWSPAPER
kindred subjects has different ideas as to his life work than has the doctor or
lawyer, for instance. The schools never have consolidated harmoniously and
never will.
Not only that, but there are numbers of legal questions that enter into
the case when the subject of removal is. discussed. Where would the school
be located ? What' would the state do with the university buildings at Eu
gene ? What are the status of the property rights that are involved ?
Moving a school creates a panic in the town from which it is taken and
starts a boom in land values at the one to which it goes. Right there begins
a sectional prejudice that would mean a great deal to the state.
- The law as passed by the legislature is a necessary appropriation for the
school, and should be approved by the people of the state at the polls next
month. ' -
UNIVERSITY Skimping in the appropriations of funds for state institu
APPROPRIATIONS tions is the worst sort of economy. It hurts the
state, in the Inner run. wnrsp thnn anv nthpr enrt nf sauinor that rnnld hp nrnr-
ticed. The legislature of this state has appropriated $175,000 for the sup
port and improvement of the University at Eugene and has divided that
money into funds that will pay for the various buildings that the president and
board of regents of that institution now have in mind.
Reports from all of the officials of the institution show conclusively that
new buildings are needed. The rooms are crowded and the members of the
faculty overtaxed. Even the halls and cloak rooms have been turned into
recitation rooms for the classes and the students have been jammed into every
conceivable place where they could be given the education. that the state pro
vides. With the growth of the state's population and the resulting increase in
the attendance at the higher schools of learning, the usable space at the Uni
versity will be even more limited than it has and the classes will either have
to be stuck away in some of the odd corners of the buildings or the young
men and women will have to be turned away without that education to which
thev are entitled as citizens of the state.
To refuse an education to aman or woman who has the energy and am
bition to take the higher courses is not only a calamity it is a crime. Educa
tion is but one means that the state provides to train its men and women in
the ways of citizenship. It takes the boy or girl and puts him through long
years of work in the lower grades finishing the training with a course in the
higher institutions of learning for but one purpose.
The more education there is at the reach of the rich and poor alike, the
fewer will be the jails and the fewer the criminals. Education reduces the
criminal class wherever it is placed within reach of all classes of society. It
trains the men or woman in citizenship and instills in him the respect for law
and order that a ruffian of the street does not get and never will get.
To be skimping with appropriations that produce such a lasting good for
the state is nothing more nor less than shortsightedness. The legislature of
the state saw how much the added room and equipment would mean in the
training of its citizens and the appropriations were made by an overwhelming
vote. The referendum that was slapped on to these appropriations is backed
by men who have ambitions for a consolidation of the agricultural college
and the university and who believe that such a consolidation would be more
economical and for the best interests of the state.
Such a claim cannot be verified by facts. The statistics of those states
where the two schools are consolidated shows that the cost per capita is almost
twice that now in the Oregon University. The bill to the state increases.
The entity of the two schools is submerged.
Each institution has its own peculiar function to perform in the develop
ment of the state. Each has its own class of work to do and appeals to its
own class of students. The work of the agricultural college would be seri
ously hampered by the conslidation with the university. Either the college
would gain the supremecy in the university or vice versa and the results would
be neither beneficial nor economical to the state.
States that have tried the experiment regret it. They are usually seeking
a change. The two schools do not amalgamate. They are different insti
tutions with different ideas of work and effort and appeal to a different
class of students. The boy who wants to study agriculture or any of its

TIME TO The approach of the opening of the Panama Canal should
CONSIDER "cause the citizens of this community to pause and consider
whether or not they are ready for the change which the use of this world
waterway will bring to the Pacific Northwest. . By this change is not meant
the vast increase in trade, so often spoken of by orators at club meetings ; but
the tremendous influx of immigrants from Europe that will be brought di
rectly to this coast, and here spread about among the various communities.
These immigrants will need two things, places wherein to reside, and
work wherewithal to earn their livelihood. They will find work those of
us who are here now need not worry for them on that score. If they can
find it in no other way, they will' do by underbidding present native labor.
By so doing they will bring on another problem, which will have to be met
when the time comes. But before that problem arises will come the other
one that of housing the new arrivals! How will Oregon City care for its
share of these arrivals?
Will it build tenements that will rent cheaply, and which will not pro
vide sanitary home life for the newcomers? That will be the easiest way at
first, but if it is. followed it will bring about future trouble in the line of
epidemics and other undesirable evils. There is another way that these
people may be cared for, however, and Oregon City should take cognizance
of it now, and prepare for the fast approaching day of the first shipload of
new citizens to enter the Willamette valley. 1 ' '
There is much vacant land irt the immediate vicinity' of this city; land
that is suitable to residence purposes, and that is sufficently near the mills
and other, labor-employing centers to make it available for homes. This land
should now be platted and divided into home tracts of say approximately 50
by 100 feet. On each tract a plain but substantial cottage of three or four
rooms should be erected, and then homesites and cottages should be offered
for sale to the new arrivals on easy terms not over $25 down and say ten
dollars a month to care for the balance, including interest. This can be done
at a profit to the land-owner, and if it is done it will provide not only a de
cent home for the new citizens, but a scheme of extension and growth for the
city that will accomplish much good. i
Most of those who will come here as immigrants are thrifty people who
will pay their bills promptly. They will also, for the most part, be skilled
in"small farming," and will be able on these small tracts to raise such vege
tables and produce as they will need. The superb climate of Clackamas
county, together with the prolific fertility of the. soil, will enable them to
grow better and more vegetables than they have been accustomed to, and so
will work for their better development, physically.; just as the suburban life
will work for their better mental and moral development. They will be able
on these tracts to raise the major portion of what they will need, yet they
will not be able to raise enough to compete with regular market channels.
Thus they will be self-supporting, but will not strike at any established farm
endeavor.
This ability on their part to raise enough to provide for their daily needs',
will enable them to devote their earnings to paying for their land, to buy
ing clothes for their families, and to the education of their children. They
will provide a profit for those land-owners who are willing to invest a little
now in preparing for the inrush ; and they will develop a sturdy new genera
tion which will be ready to take its place in the progress of this American
community. In short the scheme will benefit all the immigrants, the pres
ent land-owners, the city itself, and the new generations to be born. And it
will do away with the danger of congestion in city tenements, which is the
greatest curse of immigration to this country.
Citizens of Oregon City should consider this phase of the coming inva
sion. On it depends much of the hoped-for prosperity that the Panama
Canal is scheduled to bring to the Northwest. If the new citizens are not

together with such additions as were made to the group from time to

a few generations be an improved race of humans? There can be no
