The city council aro doing a splendid
work on Second street and aro undoubt
edly taking ii great deal of pains to make
a good job of it. it is probable, too, that
they receivo many suggestions as to tho
best manner of doing tbo work, which if
they would try to follow would land
them in the insane asylum, lint in tho
general amount of advice which is so
kindly and freely volunteered them Tim
Cintoxioi.K suggests that they finish
their work as they proceed. Wo notice
that the street crossings are loft as they
always have been, and that mud is
being continually dragged up on tho
new work from adjacent streets. It is a
good principio in all jobs, wherever
practicable, to finish tho work as it pro-
Krussus, ami inai is wnai mey arc doing
at the Cascade Locks. If wo could have
two completed squares of good street now
which will divert the water as fast a it
accumulates, and present a good, flat
dry surface, we are sure that everyone
would appreciate the value of the work
being done, tlieere would be no com
plaints and the council would fairly ru
cl in the favorable opinion of the
whole community.

tiifttltutlonn of Learning.
PoiiTbANi), Or., Dec. 23, 18!).'t
To lm: Ciino.NR'i.n: During the past
inreo days the educators of tho state
have been assembling at tho high school
UUIKIIUg.
The State Teachers' association and
the College association were both in scs
8ion at once. While the former has
been occupied in discussing topics rela
tive to the best methods of instructing,
tho latter has been doing a no less im
portant work in strengthening and
broadening higher education in Oregon.
Aside from tlio literary and musical
features of both day and evening pro
grams, the lectureH from the leading
college professors were exceedingly en
tertaining and instructive, as well as
highly beneficial in their influence. He-
sides eliminating the defects in the state
system of education, it is tho constant
aim of the college association to bring
advanced learning within the reach of
those who think they have enough when
they have completed the grammar
school. As it is, only about one youth
in tea in Oregon is getting what lie
could have and should have in the way
of schooling to make him an accurate
thinker and an influential leader in our
body politic. Like Mohammet and the
mountain if the masses will not go to
college, the college is going to the
massee ; and this is university extension.
The professors of tho eleven colleges and
five state normal schools of Oregon are
now in stronger sympathetic touch than
ever before. Each school is ready to
help every other. An injury to one is
an injury to all. A defect in one is a
defeiit to all. These facts are now be
ginning to be realized, and Oregon is
ready to step into line with eastern
states in perfecting her system of educa
tion. Ql'IDAM.

Happy New Year
To Everybody.

Christmas is over. We are glad we did what we could
to make it a holiday worth remembering. It is not for us
to say aught of our success. Let the HUNDREDS who
thronged our store and carried thence the many bundles
that gladdened so many homes and hearts ; let the people
to whom every dollar means a hundred hard-earned cents ;
let all to whom we were a Santa Glaus in deed and truth
let these say whether or not we succeeded.
