Oregoulau.
In fulfilment of its pledge the
stRte of Oregon yesterday de
livered to Major W. 0. Lang
fltt a deed conveying absolute
title to the Govern ment of the entire-
right of ay for the Dalles
Celiio Canal. This action re
moves tho last obstacles to the
construction of the canal and in
euros the early beginning of
work.
The delivery of this deed was
made necessary by the condi
tion imposed by Gougress that
before the canal should be con
structed by the Government the
state should deed to it freo of
cost the lands contained within
tile right of way. This the state
pledged itself to do, and, after
much delay, in suits and the
arranging for the purchase of
the lands, the state not long ago
secured full and clear titles to
all necessary land.
Tho transfer of this right of
way has been made to the
Government in one deed, with
the title warranted by the state.
A. full abstract of title to the
property accompanies the deed,
and these will be forwarded to
the department in "Washington
fo the approval of the United
States Attorney-General within
the next few days.
ANKfcNY GOES TO THE TOP
Will Be Chairman of Irrigation Com-mlttcc--Has
Thorough Knowl
edge of Irrigation.
Okkgointan News Bureau,
Washinton, April 0 Senator
Anlcney, of Washington, is
slated for chairman of the com
mittee on irrigation in the next
Congress. This is a piece of
exceptionally good fortune, for
tho promotion comes under the
Senate rule of seniority.
When he entered the 3euate,
two years ago, Aukeuy wao ap
pointed a member of tho irriga
tion committee, but ho was given
next to the last place oil tho list,
ranking only Senator Fulton, of
Oregon. By a peculiar turn of
the wheel of fortune, four of the
six Republican members of that
committee who ranked Ankeny
were not re-elected to the DOth
Congress, 60 that only two stand
betweeh him and the chairman
ship. But by another bit of
good fortune both of these Sena
tors are already chairman of
mote importnntfcommittees than
irrigation, so neither will stand
in his way.
This is a fortunate tUrh for
Ankeny, fbrih addition to se
curing U very desirable chair
manship, he Will be placed in a
position where he bah exercise
considerable influence over the
reclnin&tioh survicej and can do
much to promote Government
irrigation in his own state and
in Oretron, for he is friendly to
Orecon as well as Washington.
Moreover, Ankuey has a veryJ
thorough knowledge of irriga
tion matters, being himself an
irrigator and having interest
in private irrigation enterprises
lit Eastern a'ahingtOm It will
be left&infc to him to have
oharge Vf a otininiUtefc whose
work is Vo confceulftl ah'd whose

flirtOAitmK. Straits Settlement,
April 8. The Ruseatn Baltic squadron
oaeeed here at 2:80 o'clock this after
noon. The 47 ships, steaming slowly
at eight knots an hour, four abreast,
presented a striking speetaele. The
vessels, -however, bore evidences of the
effects of their voyage and at the wa
ter line showed seaweed a foot long.
The squadron was led by a large
cruiser, followed by three converted
former Hamburg-American Line ves
sels. Then came tho cruisers, colliers,
hrUtlcMhtns. eta. The coll era were
moutly in the center of the fleet. The
decks of the warships were coal-laden,
while the colliers rind the former
Hamburg-Anierlcan Jlneiy were .light
of draft. The fleet passed'seven miles
out.
The admiralty points out the great
Importance and advantage to be

Togo's heavy ships before he can effect
a complete concentration of nls scat

Togo Is waiting near the Island of For
mosa, 1800 miles northward or siga
poroi At the rate tho Russian squadron
Htenmed from Miulagascar, which av
eraged eight knots an hour, the great

Uojeslvensky fucefl great odd, owing
lo the Immense superiority of theJa

and reliance for his success Is based
upon the seven battleships with which
lie can minose Toko.
It Is thought unlikely that tho Vla
divostok squadron will attempt a June
lion with the Baltic fleet, though It Is
(iilile nosslble It may make a diver

The proposal of the prescient,
of Princeton to develop tutorial
instruction Is one of the hope-
ful signs in American educa
tion. In the past we nave been
accustomed to regard the tutor
as a mere nurse for lame ducks
something a little better than
the crib, horse or pony, of the
lazy and the dull. Our ideals
have been those of Germany,
where the only education
thought fit for university men
is private reading, founded upon ,
abstruse lectures, and leading
to the pinnacle of independent
scientific research.
In England the ideal of edu
cation has always been the
training cf mind and character
in conjunction. Tho tutorial
system has, been the protagon
ist of university teaching; and
though, as there practiced, it
has many boyish abuses, those
who know it thoroughly and
from the inside have never
doubted that.it is in essence
sund. For a doren years Har
vard has been quietly progres
sing along the path upon which
Princeton to now starting.
There is as many lectures and
special researches as ever but
it has become more and more
the duty of the younger in
structors to throw themselves
into personal relationship with
incoming freshmen, and in all

"Manners Makyth Man" is
the motto of Winchester the
father of the English system of
public schools; and no nation
that intends its education anq
culture to strike deep, knd pro

Jowett, Pusey, Newman, Lang,
Pater and the Arnolds spent
years of their lives as tutors;
and it is scarcely to be doubted
that personal intercourse with
such spirits in the realms of lit
erature and art were the happi

A keen and intelligent electi
