"Although advices from Salem place the state levy at approximately S.S mills, the levy will really have to be higher, aa we have to figure In dis counts and other things." said Mr. Hhaw. "The state merely notifies us that Multnomah County must con tribute so much money and we figure what the levy will have to be. The state officials probably take the total assessed valuation of the state and divide It by the amount they require and take no exigencies Into considera tion.' BOND FIGHT COST UPHELD City Officials Satisfied With Result In Broadway Case. It cost the city $1100 to "get even" with Farson, Sons Company, bond buyers, but that It was well worth that sum for the purpose of "showing" the Arm that Portland means business when It advertises Its bonds, was the opinion expressed by City Auditor Harbur. City Attorney Grant and mem bers of the Council committee on ways and means yesterday. A Judgment was recently given in the Circuit Court and the question of returning a certified check for :5. 000 with interest Is now before the Council. Farson. Pons A Company bid on an Issue of 1250.000 of Broadway bridge bonds in the Simon administration and, after waiting for months, replied that their attorneys had given them an opinion that the bonds were defective. Mayor Simon recommended that the certified check put up as sn evidence of good faith be held by the city snd the Council so order-id. Whether the bonds were defective, as the firm said, or not. is now a ques tion pretty well settled, since J750.0O0 worth of them have been sold and the Broadway bridge Is nearlng comple tion at a rapid rate. The substructure Is nearly finished and the upper por tions are soon to be started. At the meeting of the ways and means committee. Auditor Barbur said that he had loarned since the cou troversy with the Farson company that the Arm tried to aell the Broad way bridge bonds all over the South and. falling, telegraphed their attor neys' opinion, alleging defects In the issue. t Mr. Barbur urged the members or the committee to recommend that the city secure opinions of Us own from high authorities on all bond Issues In the future but his suggestion was not adopted. He said he thought It might facilitate the sales and perhaps bring better rates, but the members dis agreed with him on these points.

Although the total of arrests is nesrly a 11 per cent reduction rrom v.. tntal of iQlil three and four times as many arrests appear against gamb lers, saioonaeepers ium,c. - disorderly places. Most notable is the falling off In the number of drunkards arrested, the re duction being more than SO per cent. Much of this. It Is believed. Is trace able to the campaign waged by the police and the Municipal Court against saloonkeepers who sell to Intoxicated men. After two such offenders were sentenced to the rockplle and many others were heavily fined, the number of helpless drunkards In the North End and similar places fell off rapidly. There were 17 saloonkeepers arrested on this charge and two In 1910. In 1911 there were 16.074 persons ar rested, as against 18.234 the preceding year. The whole of this reduction Is found In the "plain drunk" column, there being 244 arrests In 1911 and 7717 In 1910. Disorderly drunkards declined from 791 to 574. 45 Fighters Arrested. The most remarkable decline was In the figures for assault and battery. Only 45 persons were arrested for that offense, where 7 hail been taken Into custody, the year before. Vagrancy canes fell from 2S50 to 1938. Automobile drivers had a compara tively peaceful year, due largely to the .a............. . k . .t.t, ano ltv kvi were In such a muddle that regulation of the traffic was out or tne nanus ui u police. While 270 speeders were ar rested In 1910. only 178 were taken In 1911, and nearly all of those appear In the early part of the year, before the city ordinance was held to be abrogat ed.

Stone Against Union of Oregon and 0. A. C. ITS FAILURE IS FORESEEN V. JL O. A. Secretary Declares Con solidation of Institutions Wonld Sacrifice Study of Farming for Classics. OnDoaltlon to the orODOsed consoli dation of the University of Oregon and the Oregon Agricultural College waa expressed last night by H. W. Stone, general secretary of the Portland Young Men's Christian Association, in an Interview in which he brought out arguments against the movement which have not been expressed by others who have participated in the present discussion. The loss or prestige that consolidation would mean to the courses now conducted at Corvallis is the chief argument advanced by Mr. Stone. "If the university and agricultural college were combined it would certain ly mean the overshadowing of the agri cultural branches by tne university courses." said Mr. Etone. "This has been the experience In practically every Instance where a state institution has attempted to cover such a wide field. "When the classics and other liberal arts are taught in the same school as the practical sciences there is always a tendency to regard the classical and literary courses as the most advanced.' Students who take the more practical studies are patronizingly known as 'aggies' and the practical courses come to be looked down upon. The resnlt Is that such branches as horticul ture, soli chemistry, poultry and live stock husbandry and others lose ground. California One Example. "This Is well illustrated in many states, which have combined Institu tions. Indeed, this has been true. I believe, in every case, with the possi ble exception of Wisconsin. California la a good example. While the Uni versity of California is supposed to cover the same field that the combined University of Oregon and Oregon Agri cultural College now cover, little at tention Is paid to the practical sciences. There have been years at the Univer sity of California when there were no graduates in the agricultural depart ments, and one year a girl was the only graduate. Meantime Oregon with a much smaller population was building up a strong agricultural college and attracting students from many states. There la a California club at Corvallis todir made un of students who would doubtless stay in their own state If California had a separate agricultural college. "On the other hand we need go no further than Washington to see two strong state Institutions that have been developed on tne same lino as ine ore rnn si-hools. The three greatest asjri cultural colleges in the country Kan sas. Iowa and Michigan are separate from their state universities. . Develaeerm, State's Need.
