B. F. Yoakum, head of the Rock
Island-Frieco Railway system, predicts
a long-drawn-out period of prosperity
for this country. Jim Hill, another
famous railway magnate, takes an
opposite view of the situation. The
optimists and their name is legion
are betting on the Rock Island prophet.
An Ill-Advised Movement.
We think the movement being made
iu some locilities to invoke the refer
endum on the appropriation made by
the legislature, in support of the Unt
versary of Oregon is not well advised,
for two reasons. One is that we believe
it will not be sustained at the polls, and
much effort and considerable expense
will be incurred for nothing. If this
be so the result will be rather to dis
credit the referendum feature of the
constitution, which should be used only
when strongly demanded by public
sentiment. If used several times with
out sufficient exouse and unsuccessfully,
tue people may thereby become dis
couraged from Invoking it when it
might to be done.
But a larger and more direct reason
is that in our judgment the appropri
ation, If it goes before the people,
ought, under tbe ciroumstances, to be
unstained. To defeat it would leave the
University for nearly two year9 without
u large portion of funds that it needs
urgently and must have to carry on its
work. Tbe state has the University
and unless it means to abandon it en
tirely, which nobody proposes, it should
be supported with a fair degree of liber
ality. It needs to be built up and im
proved and thiB can only be done with
money. The sum voted by the legisla
ture, $250,000 for two years, seems
rather large, but it is no more than the
institution ucedsand it can well expend
if if it be made one that will do really
good University work, and of which the
state may be proud. The University is
ip the hands of a capable, trustworthy
Board of Trustees, aud the mouey will
bo well spent. Even if the amount is
more than the legislature should have
grauted, yet as between lotting the ap
propriation stand and cutting it off
altogether we have no hesitation in
saying it ought to staud, and tbe Uni
versity ought to be supported.
A good argument might be made
against state support of higher educa
tion iu any form even tbe high schools,
that state education should be strictly
confined to the "common branches,"
but it would be a waste of time and
effort to attempt to maintain this prop
ortion. Like all other states, we have
a State University, an.i are going to
keep it and maintain it somehow. Since
this is thi settled policy, the other
proper tiling to do is tomaiutain it well
and make it a place at which the youth
oi iue state can ootain as goou an
education as can be obtained elsewhere
Portland Journal, April 5.
Tbe Oregonian's partial poll of tbe
state press indicates that a large ma
jority of the newspaper publishers de
sire to force President Roosevelt to
accept another term. We believe the
President's inixnp in tbe Taft-Foraker
contest in Ohio will result in more barm
to his case than can be overcome by
Oregon sentiment.

Bill Squires, the heavyweight Aus'
traliao scrappor hns lauded on Ameri
can soil for the purpose of getting
licked and, incidentally, scrappiug a
little.
It is now reported that the big stick
will soon laud on the lumber, trust,
which has been charged with being a
wealthier concoru than Standard Oil.
We can't understand why President
Roosevelt didu't got busy, revoke the
patents to aH the. timber barons' hold
iugs and throw the same into a forest
reserve on or about the 4th of March.
That would have bceu simplified litigation.
The Polk County Court, has engaged
ejtpert cruisers to furnish estimates of
the amount of timber on each quarter
section recognized as timber land in
that county in order to secure a fair
assessment. The work will cost Polk
cpuuty about $10,000, but it will un
doubtedly be worth a great deal more
tliitu the expense. Lincoln county will
do well to follow Polk's lead. Timber
html should bo assessed in proportion
lo its rapid advance in value.
