E TOO LARGE
President Campbell, of State
University, Upholds Legis
lature's Action.
EVERY CENT NECESSARY
For Maintenance Alone $80,000 Is
Needed and Balance of $125,
000 Will Be Used for
Improvements Only.
EUGENE, Or.. April 8. (To the Edi
tor. Since an effort is being made to
Invoke the referendum on the univer
sity appropriation of 1125.000 a year.
It is no doubt due the public that a
plain statement be made of the univer
sity's needs, and of the uses to which
the money will in the main be put if
ultimately secured.
The budget for maintenance for the
year 1906 was approximately J70.000,
which sum Included the payroll of
the university, amounting to $57,166.
and some 112.000 of miscellaneous ex
penses. It was estimated that not less
than 110,000 per year should be added
to the above for the next two years
to supply the increased teaching force
needed at the university. The chairs
in geology and political science would
, need to be filled, a high-school exam
iner and assistant in the department of
education secured, additional force sup
plied for the library and a number of
assistants employed to prevent the
overcrowding of classes through rapid
ly Increasing attendance.
The 18 departments at Eugene al
ready show an enrollment ranging
from 1B0, maximum, to 35, minimum,
to the department. The present en
rollment of 340 students, all of college
grade. In these departments promises
to grow to between 450 and 500 be
fore the next session of the legisla
ture. Overcrowding, either of classes
or of recitation buildings, should be
carefully guarded against, as being ex
tremely detrimental to the Interests of
the students.
Salaries at Minimum.
It is perfectly plain, then, that J80,-
000 per year is only a fair estimate for
maintenance alone for the next two
years. It would be extremely diffi
cult to reduce this estimate, as the
salaries paid are on a minimum basis
as compared with those paid by other
state universities, and the miscellane
ous expenses have been kept at the
lowest figure at all consistent with
maintaining efficiency.
Deducting JS0.0O0 per year from the
total $125,000 of the appropriation,
there would remain $46,000 per year
to be used in providing additional land,
buildings and equipment. To this sum
should be added the Income from va
rious university funds, amounting to
from $10,000 to $12,000 per year, mak
ing a total of, roughly, $65,000 per
year to be used for betterments.
Against this is to be figured $25,000
for an additional recitation building,
or an addition to one of the old build
ings; $25,000 for land; $30,000 for a
girls' dormitory; $20,000 for books for
the university library, and not less
than $30,000 for additional equipment
for the departments. This approximate
estimate, which would, of course, be
subject to final revision by the board
of regents, indicates a needed expendi
ture far In excess of the amount pos
sibly available. Other Important needs
have not been mentioned, such as a
glrlH' gymnasium, an extension of the
heating plant and repairs and improve
ments on the buildings and grounds.
The striking fact that the appropri
ations for the University of Oregon
have been amongst the lowest. If not
the very lowest, of any in the Union
readily accounts for the pressing needs
vhlch now beset the institution. It
will require Severn! years, with an ap
propriation of $125,000 per year, to
standardize the equipment of the de
partments, to say nothing of bringing
u the university library to an ap
proximate equality with the libraries
of such Western States as the Dako-
tiS.
Figures From Other States.
The following figures will show the
appropriations made by some of the
Western States for their universities
frr the school year 1905-6: Colorado.
$140,000. total income $166,000; North
1 koto. $77,000. total Income $152,000;
Scuth Dakota, $60,000, total income
J7I..000; Utah. $130,000. total income
1 54,500; Washington. $148,600, total in
rotns $161,000.
All of these states maintained a
State Agricultural College In addition
to the university. Colorado and South
lakota also each maintained a Btate
School of Mines. Washington raised
Its appropriation to the university at
the session of the Legislature Just
closed to $300,000 per year for main
tenance, in addition to a very liberal
appropriation for new buildings. Idaho
appropriated $250,000 for the biennial
period, and California nearly a million
dollars per year.
The mill rate for the support of the
university In a number of the states Is
as follows: Arizona, three-fifths of a
mill: California, one quarter; Colorado,
two-fifths; Nebraska, one mill; North
Paltota, two-fifths; Wisconsin, two
sevenths; Wyoming, three-eighths.
The rate required in Oregon to supply
$126,000 per year is approximately
three-tenths of a mill, or 30 cents on
each $1000 of valuation. This estimate
is based on the total state valuation
of $437,000,000.
Some objection has been urged
against the purchase of land by the
University by those not conversant
with the facts. The present tract of
27 acres is altogether inadequate to.
meet the future needs of the Uni
versity. Washington has 270 acres.. and
most of the other state universities
have tracts far exceedlag that of Ore
gon. Now is the time to buy. as the
value of land, practically now all city
property. Is rapidly advancing In the
neighborhood of the University. The
regents are not at present committed
to any specific purchase of land, and
are perfectly certain to guard against
any imposition on the state in the way
of unreasonable prices. The fact that
condemnation proceedings can be re
sorted to In case of ultimate need
gives absolute assurance of a fair
price. New university buildings will,
before many years, make the need of
more land Imperative. If the purchase
is delayed, the price paid will neces
sarily be much higher than at present.
Women's Dormitory Needed.
As to the need of a dormitory for
the young women of the University, no
one can have a doubt who is familiar
with the conditions. The young men
are provided with a comfortable dor
mitory, while the young women must

find board and lodging as best they
can In the town. The state wisely
provided two years ago for a woman's
building at the State Agricultural Col
lege which is to cost in the neighbor
hood of $S0, 000 when completed. A
similar wise policy should be pursued
with the University. As to equipment,
the departments should certainly all
be placed on. a standard basis. Most
of the students at the University are
not financially able- to go away to
other states to secure their training.
Fully half of them are largely depend
ent on their own earnings to make
their way through college. At their
home university the expense for the
year need not be above 1200 or $250.
The total expense of going to any
other- state, including travel, could not
be less than double that amount. In
addition, the self-respect of the state
requires that It maintain at least
standard efficiency at the University.
For many reasons it is best that its
sons and daughters get their under
graduate work in their own state. If
sent away while yet mere boys and
girls they may be tempted not to re
turn, and the state loses a part of its
most valuable asset, its ambitious
young men and women.
As to post-graduate and professional
work, the case is ' different, as the
students have matured into men and
women and have formed home attach
ments which are pretty sure to bring
them back.
But the university should provide in
struction not only for the students with
in its walls, but also, through a well
organized correspondence department, for
the men and women In the shops, on the
farm. In the schoolroom and In the office
who are prepared to take advantage of
the courses which Its departments can
offer. The University of Wisconsin has
recently Bhown the way by which a state
university can help every man and
woman who is anxious to learn. Some
J2O.O0O of the $1,000,000 which Wisconsin
appropriates for its university has been
set aside for the maintenance of a de
partment of correspondence, and its ex
tensive courses are being pushed vigor
ously throughout the state.
Benefits of tbe Library.
The benefits of the university library
should also be made available to every
citizen of the state. Especially should
the library be brought into intimate re
lations with the high schools, so as to
supplement the meager supply of books
usually found on high school shelves.
The immediate effect of invoking the
referendum on the university appropria
tion is more serious than those favoring
It probably understand. For the past
two years the university has been on a
basis of 180,000 per year of state ap
propriation (for all purposes) and for the
preceding two years it was on a basis
of $60,000 per year from the state. Special
appropriations, one of $25,000 and another
of $62,500, supplemented the fixed annual
appropriation of $47,500, making the totals
as given above.
In the meantime the students enrolled
in the departments at Eugene have in
creased in number from 218 in 1903 to 340
at the present time. To place the uni
versity baqk for a year and a half on
the old appropriation of $47,500, with the
need of caring for more than half as
many again students, would be a very
serious hardship. Not only would the
development of the university be re
tarded, but the students in attendance
would suffer from the lack of equipment
which should be provided.
In conclusion It may be suggested to
those who are favoring the referendum
on the ground that the Legislature did
not provide additional sources of reve
nue for the state, that the real remedy
would seem to lie in an initiative meas
ure to provide new revenue rather than
In a referendum which could give but
little relief and would be perfectly cer
tain seriously to retard the growth of
the university.

PLEADS FOR PURITY
Rev. J. E. Snyder Preaches a
Sermon to Men at Sellwood.
TELLS UNPLEASANT FACTS
Condemns Double Standard of Mor
ality and Praises Women of
Present Day for Their
Superior Virtue.
"Three women to one man attend our
churches; our public sohools are being
taught by women, and there are now
more than 140 occupations open to woman
because of her superior moral fiber, her
freedom from vicious habits, her inde
pendence and her high moral standards,
and the question of a few years ago,
'What shall we do with our girls?' has
been changed to 'What shall we do with
our boys?' "
So said Rev. J. E. Snyder in his ser
mon to men yesterday afternoon at Sell
wood Presbyterian -Church on the topic,
"A Man." He began by saying:
"It Is a great privilege, men, to talk
to you this afternoon. Why, there are
men enough In this congregation to swing
this city in any direction. I assume that
you are representatives of this commun
ity. I am interested in you in your
homes, in your business and in your wel
fare. All true ministers are Interested
in you.
"A man dying called his sop to his
bedside and said to him' 'Be strong" be
a man!' That means a great deal. The
boys want to be men and imitate men.
To say to one that he is not Is an In
sult. The boy does the things he sees
men do. He swears because his father
swears. He drinks and chews tobacco
because he thlnk3 it makes a man of
him. He thinks when he is 21 years old
and five feet ten he Is a man. Ah, but
is he a man 7 Physically he may, but
morally he may be far from it.
"The gambler may be a man. The hobo
Is a man. The man who gambles In fran
chises, in merchandise over the counter,
In stocks and who grows rich in .the op
pression of the poor is a man in one
sense, but he Is a viper feeding off the
community. He is a thief in the true
sense.
"Men, do you know that men and wom
en have changed places, and women are
becoming Independent arid rapidly occu
pying places of trust that formerly were
open only to men because her sense of
morality is higher and she is far more
dependable thaa men. Our streets are
thronged with vicious young men who
stand on the street corners only to leer
at the beautiful, pure-minded maidens
passing along. Men, there are men in
Portland who would invade your homes
If they could and despoil them.
"The trouble is that there Is a double
standard one for the boy and another
much higher for the girl. But I tell you,
men. God made man just as pure as he
made woman, and we ought to main
tain the same standard for both, but we
don't do it. A professor in an Eastern
college sent out 600 letters to women grad
uates and asked them which they would
rather be. men or women, and why.
Ninety-five answers were returned that
they would rather be women for the rea
son that men swear, drink, chew and
smoke, steal and engage In all sorts of
vice. - .
"Men, that's the trouble. That's the
reason that three women lo one man at
tend church. That Is the reason there are
so many divorces in our courts 30 In 15
minutes In a Portland cosxt- There are
two standards of morality, one for the
man and one for the woman. Some men
say religion is good enough for women
and children, and that it is an evidence
of effeminacy. It is nothing of the sort
It makes the man. the true man. Men,

of Vancouver upon the advancement that
has been made during the last year and
predicted that the good work so well
launched would be continued.
Governor Mead was followed in short
addresses by General Woodruff, of Berke
ley, Cal.; C. W. Hodson, president of the
Portland Commercial Club; I A. McNary,
city attorney of Portland; B. G. Craw
ford, of Vancouver; Tom Richardson,
manager of the publicity department of
mination to adopt the same moral stan
dard for yourself as you would have ad
opted for your sister?
"What about the man who visits haunts
of vice and associates with the vile and
dissipated then goes home to his pure
wife and children? A true man is that
who accepts Christ. There is nothing
effeminate or weak about him. Christ
was a carpenter. He was a man."
There was a large attendance of men.
A choir of 20 male voices led the music.
Rev. D. Av Thompson, pastor in charge;
Rev. A. D. Wagner, of the Sellwood
Methodist Church, and Rev. George A.

ment." He will continue the services
every night during the coming week.
"STRUGGLE WITH IMPURITY"
Dr. Brougher Preaches on Cure of
Sinful Habits.
"The Struggle With Impurity" was the
subject of the sermon preached by Rev.
J. Wnitoomb Brougher last night at the
White Temple. He said that Impure
thought comes before the actual com
mission of sin. He took for his text Matt
vis, and said that the remedy for im
purity lay in renouncing everything which
would suggest it. He said in part:
There are two remarkable words in mv
text. The word "blessed. " or "happy
means that condition of eoul which gives
to life real satisfaction and pleasure It
Is an experience that fills one with joy
and delight. The word "pure" designates
the quality of character from which the
pleasure or satisfaction arises. The
"pure of heart" are the clean of heart.
They are the ones who have been
washed white, and not merely white
washed, the latter being the condition In
which Christ found the hypocritical Phar
isees. The promise and the requirement seem
alike impossible and would Indeed be ab
surd If Jesus Christ did not have the
power to make possible that which seems
impossible to human endeavor. Those
who are willing to pay the price may
have the joy and happiness of a pure
heart and may ultimately realize the
presence of God In their lives.
The infidel, the heathen, the Jew and
the Gentile, all unite in declaring the
statement true that a pure hearted per
son will surely be happy. Pure things
are always the best of their kind.
It is better to have an unclean body
than a filthy mind, for the man who has
pure love and aspiration and hope will
find a way to cleanse his bodv
Heart purity also commends Itself to
man's conscience. High above the cry of
sensual desire for gratification can be
heard the voice of conscience speaking
Its word of warning or inflicting sharp
pangs of punishment There Is a longing
In the human soul for the perfect and
Sure, and this desire, eays Christ, shall
e satisfied.
A man who seems to enjoy an impure
life would not be absurd or Insane
enough to stand out and declare that im
purity Is the ideal of life. No man could
be found who. In his sober moments
would eulogize "the luxury of life in a
pig sty."
Guard diligently your heart purity
Never, lost it, for If it be gone you have
lost from the casket the most precious
gift of God. But you say everyone has
lost that purity of heart with which he
came into the world. This is too true
and too sad that it Is true. Let us be
ware, therefore, of everything that sug
gests Impurity. Whatever suggests evil
to the mind whether It be painting or
statuary, the theatre or the dance, ro
mance or song, Impure literature or evil
companions', ambiguous allusion or the
figment of one's own Imagination let
these things be instantly and everylast
inely renounced.
Last, but most Important, cultivate the
habit of pure thinking and let Christ
come into your heart. Let him clarify
vour spiritual vision until you "see God,
and realise his presence with you.

UNION A MISTAKE
Church and State Should Be
Kept Separate.
THE0CRATS ARE IN ERROR
Elder Snyder Says Attempts to Re
vive Old Biblical Ideas of
Government Are Not Very
Good for Citizens.
Under the title "The Theocratlo Party,"
Elder G. A. Snyder, at the Seventh-Day
Adventist Church, last night discussed the
movements being made in the United
States toward a union of church and
state, and said that all laws looking to
this end are subversive of the principles
of the Constitution of our country and of
good republican government. The lecture
In part was as follows:
"The- zealous and well-meant endeavors
of those who attempt to, enforce the ten
commandments or any one of them by
civil law are not In accord with the teach
ings of the New Testament, nor of the
principles of the Constitution and of the
Eeclaration of Independence.
"About April 1 there appeared In local
newspapers a number of letters In which
examples from Moses, Jeremiah and Ne
hemlah were cited as criterions for mod
ern legislation.
Israel a True Theocracy.
The government of ancient Israel was
a true theocracy, where the Important
functions of the government were admin
istered by men who were directly appoint
ed by the Lord, himself. Under such a
system It was perfectly consistent that
the divine will be enforced, and that even
the penalty of death be administered to
all violators. This was right because the
divinely-appointed priests, prophets and
rulers were carrying out their work under
the immediate and direct instruction of
Jehovah. Bribery and graft were out of
the question.
"No one will question the fact that un
der the ancient theocracy the church and
the state were so closely united as to be
practically the same, and it Is therefore
self-evident that those who are so anx
ious to revive the theocratic gystemf
thereby publish the undeniable fact that
they really desire a union of church and
state In this country.
No Moses Is Needed Here.
"Those who are so zealously praying for
a Moses or a Nehemiah as Mayor of
Portland so that their ideas of Sabbath
observance may be enforced are really
praying for a system the logic of which
would culminate in nothing short of a
slaughter of all violators.
"It la easy for the modern theocrats to
say that they have no idea of interfering
with those who observe some other day
as the Sabbath than their own views point
out, but the fact remains that scores of
people have been worked In chaingangs
In this land of the, free under just such
theoeratical Sunday laws as these over
zealous people are praying for In Port
land. "There Is absolutely no authority In ex
ample or precept of Christ or his apostles
for the revival of the old theocracy of
Israel. On the contrary, we have this
rule laid down by Paul on this very ques
tion: "One man esteemeth one day above
another, another esteemeth every day
alike. Let every man be fully persuaded
In his own mind.'
"This 1s the Christian Idea of the
founder of American liberty, but the theo
cratic party may he depended upon to ig
nore both in Its Pharisaic zeal for a the
ocracy." Read From Mrs. Eddy's Book.

Church of Christ. Scientist, last night was
'Arft Sin. Disease and Death Real?" The
Ljtassases read tv ere extracts from Mrs.
Eddy s worK. science- ana neaun, anu
texts from the Scriptures. They brought
out that the discords of Bin, disease and
death are unnatural, simply the falsities
of cense, and therefore unreal. They are)
"not," says Mrs. Eddy, "the etern'al reali
ties of mind."
Mrs. Eddy says:
The true understanding of God is divine.
It robs the grave of victory. It destroys
the false evidence that misleads thought
and points to other gods, other powers, such
as disease, sin and death, superior or con
trary to the one omnipotent God.
By universal consent, mortal belief has
constituted itself a law to bind mortals to
sickness, sin, and death. This customary
belief Is misnamed material law, and the
physician who upholds It Is mistaken In the
ory and in practice. .The law of mortal
Mind, conjectural and speculative, is made
void by the higher law of Immortal Mind,
and should be trampled under foot.
One moment of divine consciousness, or
that spiritual understanding of life and love.
Is a foretaste of eternity. This exalted view
obtained and retained when the science of
being la understood, would bridge over, with
life-discerned spirituality, the interval ot
death; and man would be In the full con
sciousness of his Immortality and eternal
harmony, where sin, sickness and death are
unknown.
MAKES CHURCH OPEN FORUM
Pastor of First Christian Invites
Discussion of Curcjent Topics.
Rev. E. S. Muckley, pastor of the First
Christian Church, introduced into his
church yesterday morning an innovation
in the way of the discussion of various
matters relating to man's spiritual and
temporal well-being. He announced to
the congregation yesterday morning that
on the last Sunday of each month he
will endeavor to have an interesting
speaker present to give his views on
social subjects and those relative to the
everyday life of man. These will prob
ably include the question, "Does the
Worklngman Receive a Just Wage?'' and
"Socialism," "The Home and Social
Life," "Christian Science" and other
questions of equal Importance.
Rev. Mr. Muckley believes that every
ill, physical, social and spiritual, can
only be cured by an application of the
principles found in the Bible. In speak
ing of the matter last night he said:
Men do not always realize when their
controversies have been settled amicably, or
their Ills cured, that the principles of the
word of God have been applied, but I believe
this is true nevertheless. I think, too, that
honest seekers for truth will gain much by
getting together and comparing notes, as it
were. I do not care how radical a man's
views may be, he will have an opportunity
In this public ferum to express them, so he
does It In a charitable spirit.
I wish to remove from the minds of all
the belief that the pulpit Is narrow and
biased, and to this end this forum will be
open to the public.
I expect to send to the various labor
unions of the city an Invitation to attend
these meetings, and to offer suggestions as
to the subjects which ought to be taken
up. At the close of the discussion, I will
deliver a short address.
DISCUSSES SUCCESSFUL CHURCH
Dr. Staub Points Out Requisites at
Sunnyslde Congregational.
"The Requisites of a Flourishing
Church" was the topic of Rev. J. J.
Staub's sermon yesterday morning in the
Sunnyslde Congregational Church, and
the text was fnpm Hosea xi:5, "I will be
as the dew unto Israel; he shall grow
as the illy, and cast forth his roots as
Lebanon." Dr. Staub said:
"Whatever may be said of the emotional
In religion, the church must be deeply
rooted and must receive the dew from
heaven for its nourishment. It cannot
stand if it have a shallow or unstable
foundation. Its roots must be cast forth
Into the solid, enduring principles of di
vine truth and divine love, or it cannot
stand.
"It must be deeply rooted in faith. As
said In the text, 'His branches shall
spread.' The flourishing church must be
a growing church; it must enlarge Its field
of operation; it must be full of sympathy
and extend Its protecting arms around
Its members and those not its members.
Again a flourishing church must be a
useful church. It must shed its dew
upon tbe community and extend its scope
of operation. It must grow and reach
outward.
"The flourishing church is the very best
and strongest argument for the Chris
tian religion. It is an example to the
whole world of the divinity of Christ. It
Is a living demonstration of the reality
of tbe Christian faith. It shows the ef
ficiency of the religion of Jesus Christ."
