The succfHH or tne university or
Oregon Is'Iiik located n Eugene, Is
greatly due to the efl'01 ts and liberality
of Mr. Scott. Ho was a firm friend to
higher education, as well as to the

the member) of the Union University
AssiM'iatlon appointed to solicit funds
for the purcli ae of land imkui which
toliK-ate the University of Oregon and
also lo erect t tie building now know n"
as Deadv Hall. It might be well to

act of location llie University In l'.u

for tho University and lo place thereon
and furnish a bulMing to be of not less
value than toO.tHIO. It will be seen at

not contain a imputation of over 1200.
Of course tho other member of the
