The meeting was called at the In stance of Governor West to discuss aaestlons which are confronting the two schools and which have apparently taken on serious aspects as to the fu ture existence of at least one of them. CeaaoUdatloa la Oppeae. Tt was moved and unanimously adopt ed that It "Is the sense of the meeting- that the boat educational Interests of the state cannot be promoted by con solidation of the two educational Insti tutions." Governor West, actlnc as chairman, anoolnted two committees today, which will work largely toward the future f the two schools, one, a committee of five, is comoosed of Governor Weet. Judge Robert 8.

Millage Baala Cyrua Polph moved that the Institu tions be placed on a permanent millage basis, the committee already named to work out the details, and this motion carried. C. E. Spence. master of tlie State Grange, declared himself to favor a millage basis and this wa the con census of opinion among the regents. Superintendent Alderman suggested that more bulletins be printed and spread through the schools and used for reading there in place) of some reading which Is now used. The cost was the main objectionable feature to this plan, there being no funds on hand, and Superintendent Alderman asked that plans be made to secure funds for the printing. At the session of the University of Oregon Regents, held In the morning. President Campbell submitted a report aa to the crisis which seems to be facing the. affairs of the Institution, and urged that steps be taken toward organization and permanent revenue raising. Thia was accompanied by the registrar's report, which showed a to tal enrollment of 14SS students at the university. without duplicates. It showed that students are In attend ance there from ovor 20 different states. Superintendent Campbell, In Ills re port, said In part: "As to any large economy resulting to the state from the consolidation of the university and the Agricultural College, the history of the appropria tions during the past five years In the states having the combined institu tions would seem to give a negative answer. Wisconsin. Minnesota, Illinois and California pay more per student in their great combined institutions than Michigan. Iowa. Kansas and Washington In their separate institu tions.

Including appropriations for maintenance, buildings and equipment, and reducing all attendance to a stand ard college year of 3 weeks, are as follows: . Per capita Cst per Year.

"The argument for mere economy from consolidation Is plainly fallacious. "Instead of consolidation, a policy of intimate and hearty co-operation, on the present general basis of organiza tion, la proposed. "Second only in Importance to the question of organization. Is that of a sure and permanent method of financ ing the Institutions. In most of the states a permanent levy of a fraction of a mill has been resorted to as a means of securing a sure basic appro priation for maintenance. The millage basis gives security and permanency, while the budget system gives accuracy t adjustment of means to needs. meatfly Halt Ceases I sv. A resolution was adopted by the Board of Regents, In which the Gov ernor Is requested to take steps toward bringing the Friendly suit to a hearing vg Its merits: Governor West made the suggestion to the regents that they withdraw one of the appropriations for llti.Ooi) and allow the other to go before the people, stating there would be a chance for one of the appropriation bills to carry, while opportunttlea for either to carry would be reduced to the minimum If both were allowed to go before the voters. President Campbell ezpressed the be lief that both of the billa would carry. Senator Miller, of Lebanon, declared that neither of them would carry In any county In the atate If both went on the ballot.

True to the name of Roseburg's biggest annual event, strawberries will be In evidence on every hand to be had for the asking. Unlike the practice of former years, the committees In charge of this year's carnival have realized fully the Im portance of the strawberry Industry In Douglas County and nothing will be left undone that the fruit may re ceive the recognition It deserves. The committees already have appropriated 1500 for strawberries, and it Is likely this sum will be Increased by several hundred dollars by Wednesday.

WATER RIGHTS STATED STATE EXGLVEER ISSUES BOOK FOB TSERS' BEXEFIT. Claimants Are Given Instructions on How to Make Proof and Also Warned of Pitfalls. SALEM. Or., May 11. (Special.) State Engineer Lewis has prepared a pamphlet containing Information for water users of the state in connection with adjudication of water rights. In many Instances proceedings have been started by users of water from various streams and tributaries to es tablish rights for Irrigation, power, mining, domestic, stock and other uses. Upon a final determination of these proceedings a decree Is entered in the circuit court defining and establishing all rights. Thereafter certificates are Issued by the state which are the basis of title to the water and are recorded as are deeds to land. The announcement lays stress on the fact that failure to make proof of the claim will bar the subsequent assertion of the right and It is absolutely neces sary, it Is stated, for the protection of whatever right may be claimed, that the claimant appear and submit proof. The announcement of the State Engi neer says: In many cases water rights were Initiated prior to February S4, 100U. which have not yet been completed and the right perfected. The appropriates has a reasonable time after he Initiates his water right In which to com. plete the same. and. therefore, the right he has under sn appropriation depends upon the diligence which he has exercised la apply ing the water to the intended use. There are many cases where the appro- priator, prior to the adoption of the water code, had been exercising diligends to com plete an appropriation and where a reason able time for the completion of the same has not yet elapsed. Such uncompleted rights rhould receive the same consideration ihon which were perfected, when the question of unreasonable delay and lack of diligence docs not arise. The ouestlon of diligence depends upon the surrounding circumstances, but In any events the right to water xor tne irrigation ot isnue not Irrigated Is confined to comparatively recent appropriations ana does not mciuae other appropriations. The older the date of priority claimed, the more difficult it becomes for the claimant to show due diligence In the application of the water within a reasonable time after the Initiation of his right. If he Is claiming a right to irrigate lands not Irrigated at the present time under sucn oio r.nau - . . .w .ititlnli.l 1 . nnt now Irrigated may be Irrigated from the same"! ditch through wnicn lanas are imgHiea un der an old right, does not give the appro prlator a right to Irrigate those lands. His right Is confined to the lands actually Irrigated by him under the old right, and the application of water to such additional lands not now Irrigsted when a number of years hare elapsed since the right was Initi ated, can only be made by virtue of an en largement of such old right or the Initiation of a new right, and In either case, the right to Irrigate such additional lands will date from the time the proper steps wars taken to bring such additional lands under Irriga tion, either under such enlargement or by the Initiation of a new right.

Government officials of the Entomo logical Bureau are here to cruise the territory cut over last year by their department in the war waged upon the pine beetles that have been damaging to the forests of Eastern Oregon. A year ago the Government spent $15,000 in the forests near this place In the fight upon these little insects. The method used was to cut down and burn all the infected trees found In the area the beetles were working over, and about 100.000 trees were treated in this manner. This year the Gov ernment men will cruise over the same territory to observe the result of last season's work.
