Homer, of Oregon Agricultural college, that there are now 655 stu dent? in that Institution and that the enrollment will perhaps reach 800 be fore the close of the year, seems re markable when it Is considered that Oregon has a population of only half a million. The school growth In this state Is outrunning every other development. Schools located In the small towns of the state Corvalils, Monmouth. Drain. Weston and other towns of tha class, are simply taxing 'the capacity of those towns. The same story comes from a'i of them. Dormitories filled to overflowing, students sleeping In the hallways, on the floor, in tents. In rented cottages anywhere, to live while acquiring an education. This condition must be relieved. The agricultural college needs a dor mitory to accommodate the students who are going there from every coun ty in the state. Weston state normal needs a dormitory and the legislature must keop pace with the school devel opment of the state of Oregon. Re markable strides are being made. The growth Is so rapid that it Is easy to get out of touch with It. ANOTHER AUSTRALIAN IDEA. Australia may not be depended up on for anytnlng If not for originality. Ideas seem as numerous there as bushrangers were a few years ago. The most gratifying feature about these mental illuminations is that they are all designed to effect some civic good. That we Import the ballot sys tem now in use from the antipodean commonwealth is evidence of this. We have been asked to investigate other Innovations of King Edward's South sea empire, but time and money, or something else, has been lacking. A movement has Just been launched by the Australian government that might well be the subject of Inquiry from this country to the end that pub lic relief work might be simplified. A year and a half ago a commission was appointed by the Australian gov ernment to Investigate the workings of an old pension law In two or three of the provinces of the' empire. The commission ha made Its report and unanimously recommends that the government take steps Immediately to adopt fur the entire colony a similar system. In New South Wales there are now 22.000 pensioners receiving from the state 12,600,000 per annum. In Vic toria there are 11,452 pensioners re- Hi ( SI.'- .'J At "a. .t S4M AM chins $1. 0:5.000. with the cost of ad- ion IS500.

A rule has been devised where by the pension will be decreased In the exact ratio of the Increase of In come from other sources. A pension Is forfeitable If the recelplent proves to be of dissolute or Intemperate habits. It Is Improbable that the average cost of maintaining the Indigent In the United States reaches the sum of 12.50 per capita when only the In mates of the state, county and muni clpal eleemosynary Institutions are computed. But these Inmates com prise a small proportion when com pared with the number of aged and Infirm who are supported In whole or In part by various private charitable organizations. 1'AN'AMA CANAL LAROR ISSl'E. Whlle the public learns but little of the Inside condition of the Panama canal situation. It is evident that the gjvernment Is In a serious predlca ment. one which It will require the ut iv on diligence and most capable man agement to successfully escape from. Tne tan r ranclsco Argonaut, one of the most conservative and perhaps the most thoroughly Informed papers In the United States deals with the subject as follows in a recent editor- la'.: On the labor question the canal commission has backed Itself Into blind alloy, says the Argonaut. It threatens now to be blocked at both ends. There Is apparently no way out. The canal commission has announc ed that labor from the United States will not be used; that the eight-hour liw will not be enforced; that Jamai can labor can not be made feasible, and that adequate labor from other parts of the occidental world can not be made feasible, and that adequate labor from other parts of the occiden tal world can not be procured. The canal commission has advertised for bids to furnish Chinese coolies In blocks ot thousands and has practi cally announced to the world that the canal cen not be built except by Chi nese labor. It would have been far wiser for the canal commission, before so far com mitting Itself, to be sure that It would be permitted to procure the Chinese labor. It would have been far wiser first to consult Peking. The crafty Chinese government has piacc'cally refused to allow any coolies to leave China until it Is thor oughly Informed as to the conditions of their transportation, their employ ment, the wages they are to be paid the hours they are to be worked, the manner in which they are to be f and lodged, the provision for their medical attendance, the temporary burial and return to China of the dead, and a host of other conditions, questions concerning which it will be extremely embarrassing for the canal commission to answer. It Is easy to seo the ulterior motive. The Chinese government is endeav oring to force our government to mod ify the exclusion laws. Rigid exclu sion, no coolies; modified exclusion, Dint coolies; removal of exclusion, unlimited coolies. The Chlr.eBe diplomats are placing our government lr. a hole. In one part of this country we rigidly exclude Chinese workers from United States territory; in another part we find their presence absolutely essential on United States territory for the completion of a great public work' It will be Inter esting" to see how the administration and the canal commission get out of the Impasse into which the Asiatic diplomats have led them. WESTERN RANGE CONDITIONS. So far as western range cattle are concerned it Is evident that the bulk of the season's supply has been mark eted, says the Chicago Livestock World. Recent reports from the ranges In dicate that 75 per cent of the cattle The Woman Who Writes lo her friends will create a fine im pression Irrespective of her diction if she uses "swell" stationery.

FRAZ lER'S BOOK STORE have been shipped out of Montana and Wyoming, but there ore many yet to come from the small ranchmen In N'r.rth and South Dnkota. As a rule, these farmer ranchmen prefer to wait till the bulk of the sup ply is In, when naturally competition Is less for them. Besides, they have had more time to get their stock In good marketable condition. Ship ments from the small ranchmen prom ise to be largo In the aggregate, and they will be stringing Into market till cold weather cuts them off. WOOI, UN YARN SAWS STEEL BAR. Out of pieces of woolen yarn, un raveled from a sock and twisted to gether, a prisoner In the new federal prison at Leavenworth, Kan., con structed nn Instrument which he used to saw through the top and bot tom of a three-Inch steel bar. recent ly. Mnrk A. Shipley, who resides at 4636 Cook avenue, St. Louis, re turned from Leavenworth and gave the story to the St. Louis Globe-Demo crat, which says: "A photograph of the sawed bars, showing the opening made, was given to Mr. Shipley by the warden. Ship ley was one of the men Instrumental In sending the man to prison. That a common piece of yarn could be made to cut the strongest steel bars, tested with acids and resisting steel saws, Is a discovery that not only surprises police and keepers of Jails and peni tentiaries, but scientists as well. It Is the first case of the kind on rec ord, as far as can bo learned, , and the prisoner who used It In the Leaven worth penitentiary Is the originator. "The prisoner was confined In one of the Isolntlon cells. A guard stand ing on a tier above noticed him working his hands back and forth around the bnrs and notified the guards nn the lower floor. They In vestigated and found thnt the top had been sawed through. The bottom was about half through. The prisoner readily confessed and showed the war den how he had accomplished the feat. Tho ravellngs of his woolen sock he had twisted together as a tailor would pieces of thread. He had made them compact by frequent wet tings. Dust and sand picked up In Ihe quarry were kneaded Into the suing. When finished It was almost as hard as a piece of emery stone. It required two days, he said, to saw through the bar with the string, sev eral new strings having to be made, as they wore out quickly. "The warden doubted the state ment at first. The prisoner offered to show him and made one of the In struments out of common twine. Small pieces of broom stick were used as handles. With this the warden had the prisoner finish sawing through the bottom of the bar. When plans for the new penitentiary were made It was decided to use Bessemer steel for the window gratings, it being deemed harder and nearer saw-proof than the iron which had been used. The bars at his window were the ones sawed. The opening was large enough for a man to have crawled through. " 'The fact that Bessemer steel bars have been successfully sawed with out using steel makes It more and more necessary that guards be con stantly on the watchout,' said Mr. Shlnley yesterday. 'Prisoners have made saws of tin cans and the like, but never before of common yarn.' " "HIM." In "The Education of Mr. Pipp," by Gibson, Mr. Pipp, who Is a Jolly good fellow, well managed by his wife. gives the following rules for manag ing "htm," the husband: When you marry him, love him. After you marry him, study him. If he is honest, honor him. If he is generous, appreciate him. When he Is Bad, cheer him. When he Is cross, amuse him. When he Is talkative, listen to him. When he Is quarrelsome, Ignore him. k If he Is slothful, spur him. , If he Is noble, praise him. If he is confidential, encourage him, If he is secretive, trust him. If he Is Jealous, cure him. If he cares naught for pleasure, coax him. If he favors society, accompany him. If he does you a favor, thank nlm. When he deserves It, kiss him..' Let him think how well you under stand hlmr but never let him know that you "Manage him." BE THYSELF. Be thyself! A nobler gospel Never In the past has been. Be thyself; 'tis holy scripture, Though no Blble-llds between. Dare to shape in thought and lan guage What Is lying In your brain: Dare to launch it, banners flying. On the bosom of the main. Then though coward world may scorn thee, Friendship fall, and fortune frown, Earth Itself grow dark around thee Foes on thee In rage look down. Heed not; there's a word more potent Carried In thy manly heart. Be thyself and do thy duty, Thou could'st seek no holler part. William Denton, In San Francisco Star.

C? c Catarra cannot be washed away with sprays, iuhalations and such treat ment nor can it be smoked out with medicaid tobacco, cigarettes, etc. When you attempt to cure Catarrh with such things you are wasting time and allowing the impurities and poisons in the blood, which produce the disease, to get so firmly rooted as to become not oaly a disgusting trouble, but a very dangerous one. The annoying symptoms o ringing noises in the ears, "hawking and spitting," headaches, mucus dropping back into the throat, impairment to the senses of taste and smell, and a feeling of general debility, prove that there is a deep-seated cause for Cutarrh. This cause is a polluted and unhealthy condition of the blood, and the disease cannot be cured until this is removed. The only way to get rid of Catarrh permanently Is to purify the blood, and S. S. S. is the ideal remedy for this purpose. It soon clears the system of all impurities, purges the blood of all catarrhal matter and poisons, and effectually checks the progress of this disgusting and far-reaching disease. S. S. S. puts the blood in perfect order, and as v,; r,,ire ',,nltliv Mood poes to everv nook and corner of the body Catairh la rjerniat'itntlv cured.
