A GOOD INVESTMENT.
At the last session of the Oregon
legislature it passed an annual ap
propriation of $125,000 for the sup
port and maintenance of its state
university. In the past, the univer
sity had been struggling along on an
annual appropriation of $47,500, the
smallest, we believe, of any state in
the union. It has an enrollment of
400 students, and that is also prob
ably the smallest of any of the state
universities, and explains why Ore
gon sends more students out of its
boundaries to be educated than any
other Btato In the union.
The appropriation of $125,000
seemed so large that It caused the
farmers of the Willamette valley to
open their eyes in astonishment and
they at once called for a referendum
on the bill. As a result the appro
priation is tied up until their elec
tion on Juno 1G, 190S, when the peo
plo will approve or reject the bill.
While not all of the farmers will re
ject the bill many are inclined to do
it now and will bo aided by ad
vocates of other schools, some not
in favor of progress and a few dis
gruntled politicians. It behooves the
people of Oregon, who are inclined
to progress, to wake up and save
their university for business reasons
if for none other.
We have in Illinois a university
that the legislature appropriates sev
eral millions of dollars annually to
without one word of protest, and as
people are not in tho habit of giving
something away for nothing, or al
lowing their representatives to, ei
ther, thon their must bo good re
turns from tho money Invested. And
there is.
If it should happen that a protest
would bo raised against any appro
priation for the university there
would at once appear at tho capital
of the btalo a lobby composed of
every manner and kind demanding
thnt tho University of Illinois bo not
crippled.
What has been accompllhsed in Il
linois by her state university may bo
repeated in Oregon if tho people will
care for their stato university as they
should.
As said before tho University of
Oregon Is about tho smallest of the
stato institutions, but it is doing well
considering tho limited amount of
money It hns. Tho members of tho
faculty aro not well paid, neither has
it tho equipment It should have, but
instead of tho farmers laying a straw
In its way they should become its
warmest supporters and within a few
years tho institution would grow and
prove tho blessing to that country
that the university of this stato has
to Illinois, not only from tho educa
tional standpoint, but to tho smallest
industry. Tho Champaign, 111.,

O Lord, If only my will may
remain right and firm toward
Thee, do with me whatsoever
it shall please Thee. For it can-
not be anything but good,
whatsoever Thou shalt do with

that I should be in darkness,
bo Thou blessed; and if it be O
Thy will that I snould bo in

If Thou vouchsafe to comfort

With humbled steps and head
bowed down,
May bear on earth the heaviest cross,
But wears In heaven the brightest

Then let us bless tho weary way,
Tho cross, the thorn, tho cruel
rod,
That lift us from our gods of clay
To know tho true, tho living God!

cellar into his eye, looked at the In
testines of the watch and then queri
ed: "Where did you get it?" "From
a mail-order house," was the reply.
"Hump! That's what ails it!" said
Tom, as he turned away.
"Yes," confined Mrs. A, "I find it
very profitable to give my husband
a dressing down occasionally. I
gave him one to-day."
"But how is it profitable?" quer
ried Mrs. Z.
."Why, he generally gives mo a

"Dressing up?"
"Yes; to get mo In a good humor

COl'XTV COMMISSIONER.
M. J, Krantz, who is a candidate
for tho Uopubllenn nomination for
county commissioner, has lived in
Coos county for 3ii years. Ho help
ed assess tho county two years ngo
and is thoroughly familiar with all
sections. Ho lias been prominently
identified with road building and is

"Aw, I suppose you don't keep

"The nerviest individual thnt ever 1

of Illinois, "was a chap that dashed
Into an accommodation train running

"I hope," said the new made widow,
with n dry sob, "that poor Thomas
won't be ranged with the goats lustead
of the sheep."
"Dear madam," replied the consoler,
"your dear late partner was a truly
good man."
"Yes, I know he was; but, no matter
whore he was or what he was doing,
Thomas would butt in."
He Wanted to Know the Worst.
A miner who was suffering with
dyspepsia consulted a doctor and took
bis prescription to a druggist.
"Well, bow much?" said the miner
when the prescription was finished.
"Let's see," began the druggist. "It's
.$1.10 for the medicine, 15 cents for the
bottle. That makes"
lie hesitated, and the miner said Im
patiently: "Well, hurry up, boss. Put n prlco

worst." Ladies' Homo Journal.
DEAL ESTATE TRANSFERS.
"The Frolicsome Baste."
A lady and gentleman took n short
excursion somewhat early one morn
ing, and tho horse commenced kicking
In such an extraordinary way that, In
stead of becoming alarmed, they laugh
ed heartily at tho oddity and obstinacy
of tho animal, which, aided by the
apologies and explanations of the driv
er, were ludicrous.
"Look now, ma'aui, It's the quietest
baste In Ireland" (kick, kick), "but it's
a small taste frolicsome out of play"
(kick, kick, kick). (Aside to the horse)
"I'll glvo it to ye, ye baste, when I git
yo home, to be exposing me this way."
(Aloud) "It's the blood ye see, sir, tho
rale quality blood that's In it suro his
mother won the plate at tho Curragh

CATO'S FOLLOW-LP SYSTEM.
By Herbert Kaufman.
If a man lambasted you on the
eye and walked away and waited a
week before ho repeated tho per
formance, ho wouldn't hurt you very
badly. Between attacks you would
have an opportunity to recover from
the effect of tho first blow.
But If he smashed you and kept
mauling, each impact of his fist
would find you less able to stand the
hammering, and half a dozen jabs
would ptobably knock you down.
Now, advertising Is, after all, a
matter of hitting tho eye of the pub
lic. If you allow too great an Inter
val to elapse between insertions of
copy, the effect of tho first advertise
ment will have worn away by the
time you hit again. You may con
tinue your scattered talks over a
stretch of years, but you will not de
rive the same benefit that would
result from a greater concentration.
In other words, by appearing in print
every day you are able to get the
benefit of the impression created the
day before, and as eacn piece of copy
makes its appearance the result of
your publicity on the reader's mind
Is more pronounced you mustn't
stop short of a knock-down impres
sion. Persistency is the foundation of
advertising success. Regularity of
insertion is just as important as
clever phrasing. The man who bangs
on is the man who wins out. Cato
the Elder is an example to every mer
chant who uses the newspapers and
should bo an Inspiration to every
storekeeper who does not. For 20
years he arose daily in the Roman
Senate and cried out for the destruc
tion of Carthage. In the beginning
he found his confreres very un
responsive. But he kept on every
day, month after month and year
after year, sinking into the minds of
all the necessity of destroying Car
thage, until he set all the Senate
thinking upon the subject, and in
the end Rome sent an army across
the Mediterranean and ended the
reign of tho Hannibals and Hamil
cars over Norther Africa. The per
sistent utterances of a single man did
it.
The history of every mercantile
success is parallel,. Tho advertiser
wi.o does not let a day slip by with
out having his say Is bound to be
heard and have his influence felt.
Every insertion of copy brings
stronger returns, because it has the
benefit of what has been said be
fore, until the public's attention Is
like an eye that has been so re
peatedly struck that the least touch
of suggestion will feel liko a blow.

and spreading the gospel of prohibi

ty by means of public addresses and
literature, une saloon forces nre
understood to bo doing some effective
work, but in A more quiet way. Tho
best Informed people in tho county,
however, aro freo to express the opi
nion that It will bo dry by a good
majority, as a result of the election
In June. Ashland is dry by a largo
majority already, while Medford is
pretty evenly divided, with the rural
precincts pretty suro to return a
strong dry majority. Gold Hill and
Jacksonville, always supposed to be
saloon strongholds, aro said to bo
weak in tho faith themselves, and
their vote as a resiut will not bo
heavy against local option in all
