Last Wednesday at ten o'clockin the fore
noon, a special meeting of the Bo ril of Re
gents of the Agricultural College was held

electing a teacher to fill the chair of math
ematics which had been occupied so long by
Prof. Emery, who resigned some time ago.
The board was called to order by the presi

present B. F. Burch, A. Cauthorn. R. L.
Buchanan, E. B. McElroy, M. Jacobs, J. A.
Cauthorn, J. M. Applewhite B. L. Arnold,

Prof. E. B. McElroy as chairman was des

Taeaat chair were read consisting of the fol
lowing named persons, John B. Lecher of
Virginia, Thoa. M. Snelling of Georgia, Al

just as long been regarded as an active, able
and successful teacher. He will no doubt
give good Satisfaction and prove to be a val
uable worker injthe college. He will begin
his labors in the college ou the 10th of next
month.
The Narrow Gauge Again.
We have recently heard considerable out
side talk about contemplated improvements
and extensions of the narrow gauge system
of roada. Around Airlie rumors of a new
round house being built at that point have
been flying thick and fast. The people of
Kings Valley confidently expect the narrow
gauge to be extended from Airlie to a con
nection with the O. P. road. This would
open up a country wonderfully rich in agri
cultural and other recources and would give
them a market at their very doors. West
Side. Mention was made in these columus
sometime ago of the fact that the people of
Kings valley expected extension of this road
-would be made in a short time, but whether
or not any action has been taken by the
..managers of the road to this end, we are not
informed. However, it is evident to all
thinking minds that it is greatly to the in
terest of the company to make the exten
sion, if not this season, at least in time fur
next season's crop. Fourteen miles of grade
from Airlie, the present terminus, will con
nect this road with the Oregon Pacific near
the Summit. We are informed that a good
rorrte can be obtained with a comparatively
Sght grade. It certainly demands the con
idaration of the company if they would
look to their own interests.

Occasional reports from E. W. Allen in

name for our state wherever it goes. A
correspondent of the Lebanon (Ind.)

"M.ij. Allen, coin nissinner from Oregon

The car has now ceased its wanderings in
the west, and is en route for the
New Orleans Industrial Exposition, where
the contents will be aided to the Oregon
exhibit. Mr. Allen has rendered our state
valuable services in his connection with this
"missionary car," or "Oregon on wheels.'

again Dyer swore out a complaint against
