Only last issue in SDeaking of
closing of the Lewis and Clark
Exposition, we made it a point
to speak in praise of the manage
ment and the excellent condition
of affairs connected with the
Fair so far as we had been able
to learn. Possibly we were a
little hasty in our eaitoriai, al
though with the best possible in
tention.
Not long ago the Journal
known as the Oregon Booster
changed hands and came out in
.new form as well as name. It
is now The Saturday Review. It
is under the management of J
M. Shawhai and a portion of an
article in a recent issue is pretty
hot stuff for President Goode of
the Lewis and Clark Exposition
Incorporation. Mr. Shawhan
makes some very pointed and
direct charges and openly chal
lenges denial. So far President
Goode, so far as we are aware,
has not attended to Mr. Shaw-
nan's case. If this is a case
where "silence gives consent
then the statements made about
Mr. Goode and his reign must
savor of truth, sorry as we are
to say so. In another column
will be found the article in ques
tion. The reprint is worth read-
-in'g,
GROWTH OF OAC.
Until within the last few
years O. A. C. was not so great
lv favored with students from
Eastern Oregon as we had sup'
posed she would have been.
This is not a reflection in any
way upon the college nor its
management in the past it was
simply a condition that belonged
to that period and which until
within the last few years had
not been changed.
However, now all is different.
Many are the students from
Eastern Oregon. The reason for
increased attendance is found in
several things, conditions or caus
es. In the first place the col
lege has been making a healthy
and steady growth and her repu
tation has gone abroad and to her
credit, too. Another item of no
small importance, is the class
of graduates turned out. Hun
dreds of graduates of 0. A. C.
are scattered throughout the
land and in nine cases out of ten
are living, breathing advertise
ments for the school. To see
what has been achieved by form
er students at this institution
acts as a great inducement to
others to come.
Another factor in advancing
the interests and increasing the
enrollment at O. A. C, is the ef
ficient work done by Dr. Withy
combe and his efficient assist
ants in. the way of holding farm
ers' institutes throughout the
state. These'.institutes have un
doubtedly been of inestimable
value to our college.
Then again, especially during
the past year, Prof.: J. B. Horn
er has made a trip or two through
the eastern part of the state in
the interest of 0. A. C. That
such visits were productive of
good results, is evidenced by the
number of new ' students from
that section of the state visited
by the professor. -
- It is interesting to note that
two years ago Malheur county
sent but three students to 0. A.
C Last year she sent us thir
teen, but this year nearly forty
lads and lassies are enrolled from
Malheur. Wallowa county, too,
has an interesting record. We
are informed that last year there
were only a few students attend
ing 0. A. C. from that county
this year we are favored with
something like twenty. Four
years ago, Eastern Oregon con-1
triHuted only about fifty students
in all to our college. Now there
are from one hundred 'and fifty
to two hundred enrolled from
the eastern part of the state.
Surely these things are encour-
aging to ail who have the wel-
fare of the school at heart.
The Logic of Facts.
There is a great difference in
theory and practice now and then
to the everlasting surprise of
some people. Commenting along
this line, the Seattle ' Post-Intel-
igence recently had the follow
ing:
In short, the exports of manu
factured goods under the Dingley
aw, which Free-Traders claim
would injure our export trade,
are nust aouoie what they were
under a Democratic Tariff design
ed for the express purpose of en
couraging a development of our
export trade, according to the
Free-Trade-Tariff-reform school.
This demonstrates the trouble
with Free-Trade and Tariff re
form arguments. They are all
right for closet purposes; they
figure out all right on paper; but
the irresistible logic of facts per
sists in proving the precise con
trary to the closest deductions.
Nevertheless, it is to be expect
ed that the Democratic Free
Traders and their Tariff reform
allies will persist in their claim
that the present Tariff law is
bad for expansion of foreign
trade not just now. maybe, but
at some time in the future it will
work out that way. It has ex
panded our exports steadily for
nine years, but that does not
prove anything to the Free
Trader. Can't Afford Information.
Uregon has land script, repre
senting 50,000 ' acres on her
hands, and Governor Chamber
lain is working on the questiou
of how to dispose of these rights
to the best advantage. Failing
any purchasers for the script,
which was offered lor $6 an acre,
the Governor would willingly se
lect some large body , of timber
land and hold it for the State,
but here again he is met by the
obstruction that there are no
frauds at his disposal, it is stated,
to employ the timber crusiers to
select good lands.
- The reason the State, and the
Governor, as anthorized agent to
select school lands, on behalf ot
the Sta'e, cannot sell the script,
is that no individual is allowed
by law to purchase more than
320 acres from the State. Less
ihan that amount they may re
ceive, and prefer to receive from
the Governor direct.
The alternative of selecting
timber land and holding it for
the State was brought up recent
ly .when the proposition was
made to the Governor to furnish
complete information for about
40,000 acres of timber lands in
two large blocks, at 50 cents per
acre, and to take any representa
tive ot the State over the land,
to prove by inspection that it
was claimed. '
The offer was considered rea
sonable, but there are no funds
at the Governor's disposal. It is
possible bids may be asked for to
tender the information, the bid
er to await the action of the next
Legislature on the appropriation
to cover the expense. Itjis deem
ed here there would be no diffi
culty in obtaining an appropria
tion for such information;
That Bill of Goods.
O. V. Hurt, the well-known
salesman at S. L. Kline's is one
of the most obliging of men, and
this fact is known by a wide cir
cle of friends and acquaintances.
Mr. Hurt resides in south Corval
lis, a long way from Kline's big,
busy store, and when he reaches
home, of an evening, the tired
clerk usually feels loath to g
fourth again unless the call is ur
gent. Such a call came Thurs
day evening by phone, just after
Mr. Hurt had reached his home.
"I want a bill of goods," said
a voice, and with visions of $ 20
gold "pieces floating before his
eyes, - Mr. Hurt ; struck, out for
town, and met the customer at
the store.
"What can I do for you,
my i
friend," qneried the polite" sales
man, to which he received reply:
"I want a yard of straw mat
ting, and 25 cents worth of sal
soda." That was all. Mr. Hurt
might have got relief in one way
but he is not a Dtofane man.
NEXT SATURDAY.
O. A.C.
to Battle With Northen
Giants.
What in certain to be ae great a eame
ot football as whs ever seen uu O. A. C.
field takes place there next Saturday
afternoon. A feature will be the giant
line unainst which Steckle'n men will
have to go. The men in it are all giants,
their average weizht being 192 pounds.
The center is six feet four and is built to
mutch. The guards on eilher side of
him are six feet two, ami each weigh
over 200 potmil. Even the ends in this
tfiu'antic phalanx weigh 186 punK
What Steckle's men can do anaiiisr, m.-h
a heavy line is a problem that must go
unnolved until the two big teams zet in
to action next Saturday afternoon.
. What adds to the complexity of this
coinixg battle is that the Washington
giants are, according to dispatches from
the North, not 'only big but speedy.
With all their weight, if they have the
speed that is reported; they will be the
hardieBt bunch that ever hit the local
town, and it is well that the letter are
now stronger than at any time in the
past. Ia any event, the game will be
gridiron battle by big men, the O. A.
C. team having also a considerable avor
dupois, being lighter, of course, than the
northern giants by several pounds per
man. Information relative to the Full
man men appeared in a dispatch in Sun
day's Oregon, which is as follows:
On Monday the State College bovs
will leave for "Old Oregon," where they
will meet Willamette Universitv in foot
ball on Wednesday and the famous O. A,
O. bunch on Saturday. The Willamette
boys, holding Stanford down to 12 and
tieing Berkeley, have a good team from
all reports. : The O. A. G. boasts of su-
pereor material to last year, , so that
Washington team will leave Pullman
fully determined to do greats stunts or
get the short end by Saturday's setting of
the sun.
Pullmen sends to Oregon next Mon
day a team fast and heavy. The line
averages 192 and the back field 174, and
the eutire team 183 pounds to the man j
average of 183 is a happy team. Captain
btewart at center weighs 200 ; Morgan
and Collins, guards, 190; Sapj, i8o, and
Thayer, 208. tackles; Golds? orthy and
Wexler, 185, ends i Miner and SpauUling
quarter, 165; Nissen and Jones, halves,

probably be Reed, line ; Lynch, full

Reasons for Selling.
The transfer of Mr. Sheasgreen's inter
est in the Central Planing Mills to Mr.
Buxton was completed yesterday; con
sideration, $3,800. Mr. Sheasgreen gives
as his principal reason for disposing ot
his business here, the impossibility of
obtaining insurance on this class of prop
erty in this city.
The cause of this is owing to lack of
good fire protection. During the twelve
years he has conducted this business he
was obliged to carry his own risk, and
now has arrived at a time when he con
siders it unwise to continue to do so. "
In order to secure manufacturing es
tablishments a first-class fire protection
must be maintained. Small water mains
aud pipes may by all right to supply wa
ter for domestic purposes, bu; when it
comes to fire protection they are not con
sidered sulficient and insurance will not
be reduced as it should be. - Manufactur
ing plants here, if insurance could be bad
at all, are required to pay 9 per cent as
against 3 per cent in the City of Portland
for the same class.
Man with limited means .cannot afford
to carry Lis own. risk, and it will be im
possible to secure manufacturing indus
tries here under the present high rate of
insurance.
The builders of the proposed witer
system should give this careful attention.
You must have abundance ef water and
good hydrant pressure in order to class
higher in fire protection. ;
