TUE ACiKICl'LTFKAL COLLEGE.
What Governor Pennojer Says in
IIIh MeMftaer.
From the Governors Mettle
This state institution has now an
endowment of more than one hun
dred thousand dollars, the proceeds
of the sale of the Agricultural col
lege lands donated by the General
Government to the state. It also
receives $15,000 per annum from
the Federal government under the
Hutch act. It has a commodious
building, erected by the generosity
of the citizens of Corvnliis. All
that is now needed to give it a lair
start is to furnish it with necessary
land for its la:m. It wouid.be
proper therefore, tor the legislature
to appropriate $10,000 for such a
purpose. When this shall have
been done, together with the abol
ition of tree scholarships, the Ag
ricultural college at Cor vat lis, like
the State University at Eugene.will
be able with frugal management to
enjoy h prosperous existence, with
out being a perpetual pensiouer up
on the taxpayers of the state.
And the great fact should be im
pressed upon the legislature that it
will be compelled, sooner or later,
to choose between the alternative
of supporting no higher schools at
all than our common schools by
taxation of the people, or that the
number of such high schools, sup
ported by tax, will be indefinitely
increased. The people of other
sections of thestate will argue,and
with justice, too, if high inst tutions
of learning are supported by the
public treasury at Corvallis and
Kugene City, that it is no more
than just or proper that normal
schools should be supported by the
public treasury in other cities in
different parts of iliu st;tie. This
latter course would open tiie door
oi the treasury to an unlimited ex
penditure ol money for the support
of an unlimited number oi nidiii'er
ent schools. The safe course to
pursue is the just course. No gen
eral tax should be levied lor the
support of any school but those oi
general benefit
The fear that the r-latc, which is
now in possession oi tbe Agricultu
ral college building and grounds,
may io.se such possession is entire
ly without foundation. By author
ity of law the governor has accept
ed the college buildings and
grounds for and in behalf of the
slafe, and as such property is un-
dttrtflJrmUwMiii ite .
tue ci' deedb of title and possession,
no Miit can be maintained against
the state in regard to it, because,
as no sunject or otiicer oi the sov
ereign can command the sovereign
so no court can have the jurisdic
tion (which word innilies sujrerior
ity of power; over the t-fate rcqui
situti roust the sUte from such
possession. As no provi-ion lia
been made by general law for
bringing .suit against the state, as
might have been pernii:ted under
our state constitution, any parly
aggrieved bv the state's jrossessioii
of the Agricultural col.ege will be
compelled to appeal.as every other
party having" claims against the
state must, to the legislature in or
der to jrersuaue tfie sovereign to do
that which no subject or ofiicer oi
the state lus power to compel it to
do. If there be any justice in their
demand the legislature should
grant it: if there be none, it should
denv it.
