One of the greatest events ir. the history of the United States is to bo commemorated by the North west In 1905 Oregon holds the Hey to the success op that celebration. She Is the cus todian or its life She Is responsible for its triumph. She can make or mar It She can write its history In glory or dim It In defeat. The spirits of Lewis and Clark the proud heroes of tho greatest tri umphal march of the 19th century, await Oregon's answer. The world, that Is listening to the chorus of civilization that has burst from the thronging industries that hum along the great river courses r.nd mountain passes, immortalized by that memorable Journey, is waiting to catch the word that shall fall from Oregon's Hps. The state stands today at the divid- lag pathways of fate. To right nnd left the two highways lead. One to glory, through united, pat riotic action, through a policy thnt places all factional and selfish inter ests beneath the heel of triumphal fialernlty. the broad, sunshiny path of good will and loyalty to Oregon. The other, through factional clam oring and jealousy, lends to disrup tion and disgrace. Choose between them. Say to the angry papsimis Mm' av--i.ow smoking, that the interest of Or egon shall first he served. Say to par tisan feeling that there is a hlchei consideration to be first disposed of Sav to the political lnsh that Hero Is a higher master lo obey In the great issus that lies before the spiv nnts of the people. Say to the old .wounds that may lankle In the political henrt of Orp gon, that for one consecrated hour, the chosen servants of this great state will rise triumphant o'er their evil promptings and serve the people with unstinted loyalty. Oregon's appropriation for the I.fwls and Clark fair will he an Index to Its magnitude. Oregon's zeal will set the pace for tho Northwest Ore son's figures will decide Its fate. Before the second day of the sesslor closes, the appropriation bill for a half 11 llliou dollars should be a law Ttn fore the sun goes down on the second day of the session, the electric mes stngera should fling the glad news across the tea to the Islea of the Ori ent, that Oieton has done her duty that she has spread the feast at which the nations may gather, to pay hom age to. the memory of those choice rplrlta of the ago, along whose foo- mul schools, and says "of course they must be supported, although the truest teachers receive their training from grandmothers nnd grandfathers, and at mother's knees." Continuing in tho same tone of cen sure, the Telegram compares the grad uates from normal colleges with that recent acquisition to the Journalistic fraternity, the graduate from the cor respondence schools of Journalism. The comparison is unfair, unjust and not warranted by the true condi tions attending the -profession. In the first place many of the stu dents of these "schools" of Journal ism never saw the Inside of. a print shop. They are not familiar with the n.dlmcnts of the profession, when they receive their diploma that puts the wing feathers of a full-fledged "journalist" upon them. Ou the other hand, graduates from normal colleges must necessarily pass through the public schools, receive the hard-earned education and cxperi ence that attends tills preliminary step and In addition, pass a credlta We examination before graduating from tho normal, which at least, re moves the possibility of a comparison between these two classes of profes sionals. iThe legislature cannot nfford to take this view of normal schools, held by the Telegram. It cannot afford to pass this necessary and efficient branch of Oregon educational effort, with a slighting or disparaging recog nition. True, the lovable attributes of cliar,- p.ctor and temperament are breathed with early association nnd environ ment, hut that does not finish the teacher fo.- the keen comnctltlon of today. Tho training received In normal schools fits the teacher to do the work Jenulred by the progress of this day.! It Is an advancing science; step by step the now features, now phases, creep upon It. To keep pace with these, to know these when met with In the profession, and to know how to apply thorn, the teacher must have the help of the normal, and the nor mal must have the help of the state. of the United States h rode down to the AVulte House unattended, dis mounted and tied hlB own horse to tho hitch rack, hung his Bpurs upon the saddle-tree and walked up alone to take tho oath of offlce. Tho recurring appearance of the county scat spectre, reminds Oregon thnt this ghost will not "down" until the whole vexing Issue Is taken out of the legislature. THE DREAMER. Just now the Amerlcan'B fud is the "strenuous life." Men go racing in iiuest of money, honor, power, fame. Hut tho drenmer. the thinker, whose Ideas have been In advance of his tunes; the seer who directed others tc power nnd fame. Is pased by as a degenerate, a failure. Men In the truest sense, men who used their part of the great life that others might see and kiftiw and be free; -men of whom Patrick Henry, I 1 nomas Jefferson, Webster, Fremont,, limine, are types, are spoken of as, overrated, unlucky, and failures. They are said to be impracticable,, because they believe there is some thing better than money or office. I . . . 1 Has this great, much-talked about i prosperity so crazed us that we actu ally believe that Fremont wns a fall-1 ure? ! He did not become a millionaire,! nor president! was he therefore a de generate, a failure? He gave us Cal- norma, no gave to the people of tnei West an ideal of man toward which I they are ever striving. He did more to make possible the great West thain all the millionaires of the country combined. Fifty years from now ho will stand out as a true American, while our men of wealth will have passed Into oblivion. Exchange. THE PIONEER.

His work unfinished, his task open like a book before him. his aspi rations giving color to his life, his plans designed with a statesman's precision, upon the trestle-board of action without warning, without a whisper of tho approach of thnt fate ful hour, he leaves his home for a brief spell, and is carried back to it a lump of lifeless clay.
