"SUCH A FOOLISHNESS. ''
In Pittsburg, Pa., next week
there is to be a banquet given
in honor of .-vndrew Carnegie
and hi3 spouse. The banquet is
to follow the dedication of the
Carnegie Institute at that city.
This is all right and proper and
so far we have no criticism to
offer. But it seems that the
deuce is aN)ut to be raised in
' "social circles" on account of
the shortage of available seats
at the banquet. Here is where
human nature is tne weakest -in
toadying for social prefer
ment. What miserable, ignorant and
depraved wretches are some
times picked up by good people
because in their very souls they
believe they are advancing them
selves in the social world. The
best way any person can advance
themselves in any way whatso
ever is to have a care to the kind
of company they keep and be
courageous enough to keep aloof
from the society of those whom
their hearts warn them are un
worthy. A little notice, a dose
of subtle flattery, an overween
ing desire for notoriety will
cause many people of really good
hearts to do some mighty foolish
things.
In the case of the banquet
given in honor of the ''Laird of
Skibo Castle,' and his common
place f rau we have an example
of the exaggerated importance
placed on the mater of invita
tions to "be there." Those not
invited may as well leave town,
for they will never again be
quite "top-notchers" from a soc
ial view and mo it of them have
not enough good sense to be
thankful that it is so. ''Such a
foolishness!"
HARRIMAN, THE POLITICIAN.
We have no history of men
who dabbled in politics all their
lives without wearying of their
jobs. In every community we
find men playing the game in
greater or lesser degree accord
ing to the possibilities afforded
by said community and the limi
tations of the player. Many get
into politics not from personal
choice, but from some chance
proposition, and there seems to
be no stopping place once they
are in the race. They go the
pace generally regardless of
whether accident or design plac
ed they in the game and in the
long run regret that politics ever
beckoned them and curse their
weakness that they should have
been snared by the web.
The latest to come into the
political lime light is E. H. Har
riman, better known to fame as
a railroader of great ability. In
the railroad business Mr. Hani
man had, or has, no peer, but in
politics he certainly is a frost.
For some little time in the past
he has attempted to throw poli
tical stones at one Teddy Roose
velt. In this Harriman has not
proved so illustrious as in rail
roading. He has been at a great
disadvantage. The trouble with
Harriman has been that when
ever he said something which
Teddy did not like the latter
characterized the statement as a
"d d lie" and let it go at that.
The worst of it all from Harri
man's standpoint must have
come from the knowledge that
when Teddy branded his utter
ances as "d d lies" the pub
lic seemed to take Teddy's word
for it-
A recent letter given out by
. Mr. Harriman seems to show
that gentleman up in the light of
not knowing his own political
faith. Small wonder it gener
ally come to some sach end, es
pecially when one has made a
mess of their politics. - .
VOICE THEIR OPINIONS.
Regarding OAC President Mult
nomah Orange "Resolutes-"
The Pomona Grange for Mult
nomah county (representing all
the granges of the Patrons of
Husbandry in Multnomah coun
ty) has taken action to show the
kind of a man the grange wishes
to have at the head ot the Oregon
Agricultural College. Mr. Thos.
Paulsen, long one ot the most
promiuent members of the order
in this sUte, offered the follow
ing resolution, wh'ch was adopt-t-d:
"Whereas, There is at pres
ent a vacancy in the office of
president of the Agricultural
College, and
"Wheteas, This office will
be filled in the near future by
the regents of said college, there
fore, be it
"Resolved, That we, the
members of the Pomona Grange,
ot Multnomah county, demand
that whoever is appointed to this
office shall be a man thoroughly
competeut by actual experience
in the work of education as it
pertains to agriculture and a man
of natuual reputation if possi
ble "
The discussion on the resolu
tion showed that the members of
the grange understood the im
portance of having a man at the
head of the institution who is
thoroughly fitted to be the head
of an agric hural college both by
education and work and in abil
ity and standing. They will al
so make no objection to the pay
ment of a salary sufficient to se
cure such a man. Rual North
west.
The board of regents in mak
ing a selection for a man to take
the place as president, should
choose a man who bas the quali
fications necessary to fit the name
of the institution. Above every
thing else he ought to be a man
trained in agricultural - pursuits,
and one who will make the
teaching of agriculture and horti
culture science the main feature
of the Oregon Agricultural Col
lege. There are plenty of op-
oortunities offered for the train
ing of pharmacists and electrical
engineers, but if we are going to
tax ourselves to maintain an in
stitution called an 'Agricultural
College,' let's be consistent and
put tlje farmer boys who attend
the school to the front, instead of
pushing the other fellows for
ward, and dubbing the farmer
hovs 'hayseeds.'" Ncwberg
Graphic.
There are all sorts of rumors
and reports as to the probable
choice of the board of regents of
the Oregon Agricultural College
of president of that institution
A report is to the effect that
nearly all of the candidates for
the position are normal school
men. The board of regents is
under no obligation to confine its
choice to men who are appli
.:ants for the position. Men who
are eminently qualifier to be at
the head of normal schools might
be most unfit to be at the bead
of agricultural colleges. The
natural presumption is against
tnem. The board should cer
tainly choose a man who has
been educated in an agricultural
college and whose work as an
educator bas been such as to
develop his knowledge of agri
cultural education. Editorial in
Oregon Agriculturist
Mother and Teacher.
In the city ot Cleveland there
is a club composed of mothers
and school teachers, the object
of the organization being to se
cure co-operation between par
ents and teachers in the educa
tion of the primary grades.
Parents and teachers have a
strong common interest in the
welfare ot children, who can be
properly trained only through
complete sympathy and unre
milting endeavor on the pait of
both.
Unwisdom or indifference on
the part of one will do much to
neutralize the best intended and
the most intelligently directed
efforts of the other.
If the highest results are to be
accomplished for the children
there must be no working at
cross-purposes by parents and
teachers, between whom effective
co-operation is as easy as it is
desirable.
Their respective fields of acti
vity are clearly defined, and both
are moving toward the same
goal bv different paths. ...
: Probably there is much greater
svmoathy between parents and
teacher than the publicity once
in a whil given to exceptional
cases' of discord would seem to in
dicate.
It is undeniable, though, that
in many cases there is a disposi
tion to abdicate the parental
function and to burden the teach
er with a responsibility which
should be assumed by the parent.
The work of formal ' education
weighs so heavily upon the teach
ers that it is .impossible, even i'
it were desirable, for them to
provide, except indirectly and in
cidentally, the more fundament
ally important training which is
obtained either at home or, as a
rule, not at all.
Show Their Faith.
There seems to be a general
buildimg boom on in Corvallis,
and the many new structures
that are going up, together with
other improvements, show that
capitalists have faith in the town
and believe in its future other
wise they would not be building.
Bur the things most needed to
make Corvallis continue to boom
and to grow are factories, mills,
canneries and other industries
that will establish .payrolls and
give the laboring class some
thing to do after they have come
to Corvallis.
Of these things there is a
dearth, and it is up o local cap
italists to get their heads to
gcther and decide on something
along this line that will pay,
and then set about to establish it
in this city.
The . cannery idea has been
advanced time and again and
other towns ih the Valley have
taken up the proposition and
will have canneries in operation
this season to take care of the
coming crop. While it is not
advisable for all towns to have
canneries, perhaps, there are
many other enterprises in which
Corvallis could engage with pro
fit and general benefit to the
community, and it is high time a
start was made in this line by
some wide-awake citizen with an
eye to business.
Held a Reception.
In honor of the 50 or more dele
gates who are in attendance at
the United Evangelical confer
ence now in session in this city,
a reception was held at the Unit
ed Evangelical church Wednes
day evening, about 100 guests
being present.
There were songs and toasts
and a general good time for
everybody, and the feast ended
only in time for the beginning
of the evening's services.
Charles Heckart presided as
toast master, and toasts were
responded to as follows: "Our
Visitors," Rev. C. T, Hurd;
"Blest Be the Tie," Bishop Heil;
'Presiding Elders' Perplexi
ties," H. L. Pratt; "Settin' on
the Conference," H. Barendrick;
Crossing the Bar," G. L. Lov-
ell; "The Stationing Commit
tee," A. A. Winter; "An Old
Evangelical," John Bier.
Splendid music was furnished
during the evening by Messrs
Lovell, Caves, Hurd, Wood,
Chamhers and Hotchkiss, be
sides which the chorus choir
pleased everyone.
At the conclusion of the affair
unique souvenirs were presented
to all, and latter the company
listened to an interesting sermon
by Rev. N- W. Sager of Dallas.

only good never harm. Its whole effect
is to strengthen, invigorate and regulate
the whole female system and especially
the pelvic organs. When these are de
ranged in function or affected by disease,
the stomach and other organs of digestion
become sympathetically deranged, the
nerves are weakened, and a long ' list of
bad, unpleasant symptoms follow. Too
much must not be expected of this "Fa
