ture for Institution.
WALLA WALLA. Wash.. Nov. IT.
(Special.) Whitman College twgan a new
epoch today. From a sectarian college,
the Institution has expanded to a non
sectarian university. The formal passing
to a '"greater Whitman" took place this
morning when the members of the new
board of overseers ratified and signed
the new articles of government.
The occasion of Whitman's forward
step was marked by the greatest gather
ing of educational men ever held In the
Pacific Northwest. The 600 or more out
side members of the educational congress
arrived In Walla Walla this morning hy
special trains from Portland. Seattle.
Tacoma and Spokane. They were met at
the Northern Pacific and O. R. A N.
depots by a reception committee consist
ing of 25 representative citlsens who con
ducted the entire party to the Y. M. C.
A. cafe, where they were breakfasted
and asslcned to their resoective places
to be entertained during the two days'
congress.
For the hour Immediately preceding the
opening of public sessions in the College
Chapel, the new board of overseers met
In room 16 of the Memorial building for
Its first meeting. Practically every one
of the 60 members constituting this board
was present and took part in the delib
erations of the board's first session under
the new regeme.
Judge Barke First Chairman.
Judge Thomas Burke, of Seattle, was
unanimously elected temporary chairman
of the board, to act until permanent or
ganization has been perfected. Although
the general policies to be followed in the
campaign to build a greater Whitman
College were discussed at this meeting,
there was but little detail work done, the
greater portion of which will follow in
the meetings tomorrow.
Promptly at 11 o'clock the board of
overseers entered the spacious chapel
amid the soft Ftrains of the pipe organ
played by Miss Nina Markley. The board
took seats in the places reserved for
them to the right of the stage. Seated
on the platform were President S. B. L.
Penrose. Rev. Francis J. Vanhorn, of
Seattle: Judge Thomas Burke, also of
Seattle, and Dean A. W. Hendrick. Pres
ident Penrose announced that the Rev.
Mr. Vanhorn would lead chapel exercises.
After a brief Scripture lesson, read by
the Seattle pastor, and a prayer follow
ing, the exercises were concluded by the
sinking of "America" by the audience.
On the conclusion of the rhapel exer
cises. President Penrose Introduced Judge
Burke, temporary president of the board
of overseers, as president of the con
gress. Foarsoti's Xante Cheered.
In opening the congress. Judge Burke
paid:
"On behalf of the Board of Over
seers of Whitman College I extend to
you. ladles and gentlemen, a cordial
welcome to this meeting, which in
many respects stands unparalleled In
the history of the Northwest. On be
half of the faculty especially I de
sire to extend a hearty welcome to
that munificent benefactor of Ameii- 1
can citizenship. Dr. D. K. Pearsons, of
Chicago, who beside giving liberally
to the support of Whitman College,
has made generous gifts to other edu
cational Institutions of the United
States."
On mention of Pr. Pearson's name
the entire audience joined In hearty
and prolonged applause, directed to
ward the venerable old gentleman
Heated just in front af the stage.
Continuing his remarks. Judge
Burke said:
Location of College Ideal
"Few of us can realize the great
and far-reachlna- Influence which this
meeting is to have on Whitman Col
lege. Walla Walla, the Northwest and
the entire Nation. Blessed with the
most healthful climate on earth and
surrounded hy an In.mense territory
of the richest soil that can be found in
America. Walla Walla is wonderous
ly adapted as the location for an insti
tution of higher learning1, which will
disseminate knowledge to the young
men and women from the three North
west states. Washington, Oregon and
Idaho. Ladies and gentlemen, again
I welcome you with the fullest meas
ure of cordiality."
Sneaking on "The History, Tradi
tions and Spirit of Whitmau College."
President S. B. I- Penrose brought
prolonged and hearty cheers from his
audience, when he mentioned the self
sacrificing deeds of the pioneer mis
sionary and builder of civilization. Dr.
Marcus Whitman, the man in whose
honor the present Institution has been
built.
Iiv. Cushlng Eels, the founder of
the college, and the many other brave
men and women who helped to make
Whitman College a Buccess through
their untiring labors and denials of the
pleasures of this life came in for eu
logies. The address of President Pen
rose was illustrated by large-sized
stereopttcon pictures thrown on can
vas to the rear of the stage.
Pays Tribute to Cu.-hlng Eels.
In part. Dr. Penrose said:
"Either Cushing Jiels was a man of
marvelous foresight or else he was provi-
dentally led In deciding to establish a
college to the memory of his friend. Dr.
iiari-us Whitman, at the point which now
S"eros to be the getgraphical center of
that 'oid Oregon" for which Dr. Whitman
lived and died. It illustrates the friend,
ship of one true-hearted man for another.
Cushlng Eels had no thought of perpetu
ating his own name in the institution
which he founded With sublime self
negation he founded it in tlie name of
his friend and obliterated himself tn lay
ing its foundation. Whether you reflect
upon the heroic career of Dr. Whitman,
or the saintly life and service of Cushlng
Kela or the splendid generosity of that
great-hearted business man. Dr. Daniel
Kimball Pearsons, you see In them all
expressing Itself In different forms, the
sme spirit of patriotism, ready to give
money, self, even life for the sake of the
country over which the stars and stripes
float.
" Such has been the history of Whitman
Ci'llese. Today It stands chiefly for two
hinus. scholarship in the true sense of
the word and a broad free earnest Chris
tianity. Whitman College has done great
taings in the past, but it is now in the
first stages of formation of a greater In-
iliuuoo, which. I believe will beneUt in J
the future three persons It has been of
benefit to one in t.te past."
Following the address by President Pen
rose, Dean A. W. Hendrick, who is at
the head of the campaign to raise funds
and secure other support In the building
and equipping of Whitman College, spoke
on "The Greater Whitman, its purpose
Tft twnmM t Vi nmrvwntallvf orivate insti
tution of the Pacific Northwest." In the
course of his remarks. Dean Hendrick
briefly showed the plans wnicn mo
posed to be carried out in xne imu
elri which undoubt
edly lies before such an institution as

character which has oeen oon

the three Northwest states, nuninpciuu.
Oregon and Idaho. He closed by urging
those present not to overlook the needs
of a "Greater Whitman" and the fact
that the support of every citizen m ine
three states is needed.
At 8:30 o'clock this afternoon Dean Al
fred E. Burton, of the Boston Institute
of Technology, spoke on the question,
"The Economic Value to the Pacific
Northwest If the Massachusetts Insti
tute of Technology Were Transplanted
from Boston to Walla Walla." In open
ing his address. Dean Burton made a
harpy hit with his large audience by
saying that If he had been wording the
question on which he was to talk he
would have worded It thus: "The Intrin
sic Value to the Boston Institute of
Technology Were It Transplanted from
Boston to Walla Walla. Continuing,
Dean Burton said, in part:
Confident Money Will Be Coming.
"The Boston Institute of Technology
is considered to be the biggest and best
of its kind in the United States, and yet
It is probably not so big as it Is gener
ally conceded to be. Although the
work which we turn out is of a higher
degree, it might be better. If the in
stitution were smaller from the start,
we have had a struggle to finance the

Woolmen Demand Senator

Interests.
BURGESS MAKES IT PLAIN
President of WooIgTowers Associa
tion Directs Ills Remarks to
Tariff Issue Ellis Prom
ises Ills Support.
HEPPNER. Or., "ov. 17. (Special.)
That it is essential to the woolgrowing in
dustry of Oregon that the Legislature
elect a Republican Senator, was the key
note of the address of President Burgess
before the convention of the Oregon Wool-
growers' Association in this city today.
Congressman Ellis addressed the conven
tion and declared that he would oppose
any reduction of the tariff on wool that
would work to the injury of the producers.
The convention was called to order by
Vice-President George Curren, who pre
sided until President Burgess delivered
his annual address. The forenoon was
taken up by the appointment of commit
tees and short addresses by different
members. This afternoon Congressman
Ellis was the first speaker and dwelt
for sometime upon the tariff question in
relation to the duties on wool. He prom
ised his support to the aid of the wool
men and said that he would favor no re
duction of the tariff whatever if in any
way that reduction would affect the pro
ducer. Mr. Ellis further stated that the
Eastern people had an erroneous idea In
regard to sheep-grazing upon the public
domain; that they thought that sheep ate
and destroyed the timber and that the
sheepmen set all the fires which cause the
immense forest fires, simply to remove tne
timber so as to 'furnish a large grazing
area.
Mr. Ellis Is the first Representative
to Congress to attend a meeting of the
association for many years, and upon
the mention of this, three rousing
cheers were raised for the Congress
man. Montle B. Gwlnn, of Pendleton, made
an able address on the National forest
and its relation to livestock, which
was followed by George McKnight, of
Vale, on leasing the public domain.
The lecture by Dr. McClue tonight at
the Orpheum Theater on bacteriology
and animal parasites was largely at
tended and exceedingly Interesting.
The adoption of resolutions will oc
cupy the attention of the association
tomorrow, and in the evening the mem
bers will be banqueted at the Palace
Hotel.
President Burgess spoke In part as
follows:
"The past year has been one of trials
and tribulations for the Oregon sheep-
growers. The decrease in price of
sheep, dating from the panic of Oc
tober, 1U07, to the Presidential elec
tion. November S. of this year, was
fully 35 per cent, and the price of
wool met -with a corresponding de
crease. This disaster, coming during a
season of protracted drouth, the worst
ever known in the state, has been the
cause of probably the greatest finan
cial loss In the history of the sheep
Industry In Oregon during the same
length of time.
'However, there is now every indica
tion that a reaction has taken place,
business of all kinds is good, the fac
tories and mills are all starting and
running full time and the outlook is
that we will be able to enjoy another
four years of prosperity. The wool
market Is active and much stronger
than It has been at any time during
the past 13 months. The sheep market
in the different parts of the United
States, even with the highest prices of
feed, are much stronger, and mutton
will undoubtedly reach its normal
value during the coming Winter.
"From sheep reports available. It is
noted that we have an increase In the
United States of probably 400,000 sheep
during the past year. This increase
has taken place largely upon the small
farms and It more than offsets the
decrease that may have occurred upon
the open ranges of the West.
We have In the State of Oregon ap
proximately 200.O03 sheep worth prob
ably J800.000. This, together with the
wool clip of the present season of 1,
KUO.000 pounds, gives a value for sheep
and wool during the year of almost
$1,100,000. From the best obtainable
reports we find that we have exported
from this state during the present sea
son 430.000 sheep, which we may safely
value at is a head, which have re
turned to the state $1,290,000. as the
value of our exports of live sheep for a
single season."
Here Mr. Burgess' remarks turned to
the tariff on wool and he spoke at
length in support of a tariff. He
said:
"During tho period of free wool
there was a decrease in wool produc
tion In the United States exceeding 4.
400.000 pounds, with a corresponding
decrease in the number of sheep. The
price for washed Ohio clothing wool
during the time of four years of low
tariff averaged 19 cents. The average
for the same wool under protective
tariff from 1898 to the present date has
been 30 H cents, showing a difference
of lli cents per pound in favor of the
period of protective tariff.
"Our present Congress has a Republi
can majority, but it is not altogether
safe as far as the tariff on wool is con
cerned. You well know that free impor
tation of wool has always been advocated
by the Democratic party, also some Re
publican Senators of the East are in
favor of a reduction. Gentlemen, how
fere we of the Western woolgrowing states
to protect our interests against a grow
ing sentiment in the East which means
financial death to us? We never can
do It by electing Democratic United States
Senators to represent us at the National
Capitol.
"I trust that even' sheepman In the
state will give his support and assist
ance to the election of a man whose
political affiliations and whose past prin
ciples and present policies assures the
woolgrowers of 'this state that he will
stand for no reduction of the tariff on
wool."
Mr. Burgess also touched on the sub
ject of the continued cuts in the grazlngr
limit of sheep each year In the National
reserves, and called upon the members
to urge Congressmen and Senators to
stand together upon the wants of the
sheepmen and by their great Influence
demand that the National Forest Service
give justice and protection to the West
ern flockmaster.

Food " fads " are good
things for the dys
peptic to let alone
Better stick to the good
old reliable H-O, the
oatmeal that is cooked
three hours in steam
the "meat" of the oats,
without the hulls or dirt
It ctfsts a little more than ordinary "rolled
oats " but it' twenty times better because
it contains more body-building nutriment
and is more easily digested. It ii the only
team-cooked oatmeal oa the market
dainty, delicate, delicious. Ask yoar
grocer for H-O.
"Wish I could have more H-O"
