Corvallls Times: "Four names have been mentioned lu connection with the presidency of the agricultur al college.

Mr Miller's name is a familiar one In this section of Oregon. He owns and ojs-rates a large saw udll lu Josephine county.

The province of thosa-ciul committee, consisting of Governor Lord, Benton Kilb-n uud J T ApHT sou, is not to diooe a president, but merely to recommend asiiilul.le person to the consideration of the hoard.

Hud the city tax levy beeu made one mill higher this obligation could have been met without borrow ing any money, but, w hile the mayor and council were aware of the amount necessary to lie raised, they deemed It best to keep the levy down and secure a loan. -- Makrieii.

We found the Mead ows to W ulitiut l"il0 feet above the starting Milnt ut the river, and Little line Openings to be H75 feet above Eugene, measurements being lukeil with u barometer. After a rest of (wo hour wo began exploring the surrounding country by going to (ho highest points und view ing the suriouiitllng country through a licit! glass. From the highest point at the .Meadows wo could see John Hill's Ib id to llie northeast with Big Pruiriejust below Ml June, to the northwest of Bohemia mountain, about two and one-half miles south we could plainly ice the Annie mine aud the building without the uld of tho Ibid gl.iss. We also found that Row river heads In a canyon that huts against the Meadows, and lu the llrst half mile must full between MM) and H .O feel In some plains It leaps fiver pcrpen. dlcular walls from 7o to UK) fis t high. In coming up to tho Mcudows the r.,...l Ml.iilll.l II I III lo on tho south slope of the ridge that we went up, as It is entirely li te irom snow ami smaii canyons, tsing one of the stralghtcst ami smoothest canyons I ever traveled In utiy part of the inouutalini west of Cascade range. It Is covered wilh green tlmlier and of a pumice stone formation free fro 111 rock fir rock iilull's. The Meadows ure about til miles Irom llie ri vi r dtic wesl. From the Meadows to Hie ridge that Mr Jennings' road p.is-es over Is not fiver 2j miles to tho point to join with his road to reach llie mines. The road should pass Just to (lie south of tho meadows iu tl ey are mostly on tho ninth slope uud to keep fin (he oouin slope wouiti nicu thu mud lit least two or threo weeks curlier In the s, ring. Where wo would Join the Jennings road to the Anna mine II Is not over s or . nine. 1 in? whole uinount of road to be built would not exceed nine miles. After reaching the Jennings road we traveled down It to within 5 miles of Cottage Grove anil came homo by way or Walker station. As to (ho practublllty of the two roads or mule 1 consider the Middle Fork mud the best us the grade from the river to tho Jennings road will be less than 12 Inches to Ihe rod, US the ru so Is 1.1( 0 feet In 1) miles. The grade will tint have any short turns and not a switch buck In It. As (o (lie fording of (lie Willamette river It Is hotter than the ford across Row river. As to ihe cost Mr Slinonsestlmatcs It to not cost over I.KMK). I think that Ihe pen phi of Eugene uud Middle- Fork could not make u better Investment Hum to build at once the roatl by way of Mid dle Fork. I think the road from A D Hvland's to ubovo Dead Horse hill will be the roughest part of the whole road. Yours, It. M. Day.
