RE THOROUGH. As the etymology of the word signifies, education is a leading out from, a development. This is a continuous process, never ceasing in its operation. "Never too old to learn" is an adage which rests on the fact that education Is constantly progressive and that no one can acquire possesion of the aggregate or sum total of human knowledge. Whoever knew a man who knew all about everything? It is equally certain that no one man ever gained all knowledge possible concerning any one thing. However, learn ed-a man may become he may never say "ne plus ultra," for he well knows that deeper down than he has yet digged, further along than he has yet traveled are concealed great stores of knowledge. He may dig to greater depths, travel greater distance, then lie down and die conscious that some other man will come after him and discover principles and truths more pro found than he himself had ever dreamed of. The field of human knowledge is illimitable. It ever reaches o t into the inf! nite. But the knowledge which may be gained by any one has its limitations. The most learned men realize liow little the sum of their know ledge, and how inperfect, in the light of to-morrow, it may ap pear. It is wisely ordained that he vcho would attain to any consid erable knowledge must do so mainly through his own unceas ing efforts. Books, schools, in structors are adventitious aids not to be lightly valued, fortu nate the young man to whom these are available and who uses tbem wisely and well, but it still remains true that his education is his own work. The most, the best perhaps that schools and teachers can do is teach the use of the tools or instruments nec essary in gaining an education, j.i!ace them in the youth's hands, open wide the doors of "The Temple of Knowledge" and bid him enter. Corvallis offers unusual oppor tunities to the young of either sex to obtain a desirable scholas tic training, and we hope that an increased number of young men and women will enter the Agricultural college here. Every line of human endaavor is calling more and more insistently for educated men or women to "come and help." Whatever vocation a young man or a young woman may choose, whether chopping wood or guiding the ship of state; whether washing dishes or lead ing a great moral reform, it will be better done and be conducive of greater happiness when direct ed by right education, for it is this element which ennobles both the doer and the thing done. Let the young man be industri ous, energetic, alert, observant and thoughtful; but above all else he must be thorough. He must make his knowledge part ; of his own consciousness. Erasmus said, "not how much but how well." Scorn to be a smatterer. The world already has too many such. Know things, .then you may do things; but re member "It is better not know so much as to know so many things that are not true." Dig, disc, dig, early and late, but ever dig for the truth. MUST REMAIN SO. The latest statement from Mr. Bryan is that he does not know what the real issue may be in the He says it is too early to see what it will be. Mr. Hearst has been no more successful in finding a real issue. The conservative dem ocrats in all the northern states, especially in New York, seem to be more concerned at present how both Bryanism and Hearst ism may be eliminated from the democratic party and the strength of their devotses. utilized by the party. They find no issue in New York upon which they ean hope to carry the state. L In the last election for governor, Hughes, a republican, was elected over W. R. Hearst who put forth his ut most efforts to secure the election of himself. Of all those on the Hearst tiokef who were then elected there seems to be none having the qualifications for lar ger things. Nearly all have failed to "make good" and could not be elected to succeed themselves. The administration of Governor Hughes has been wise, successful and highly satisfactory to all ex cept the long time "bosses" of all parties. The governor has wholly ignored them and by doing so has greatly strengthened him self with the masses. So coura geously and wisely has he per formed his duties and wielded his power as executive of the state that the democratic leaders can find no issue on which they may hope to carry the state, nor can they hope to impair thegovernor's popularity. The democratic party in New York is really in bad shape because unable to find either man or issue with which it. may hope to win. The reason for this is that the peocle are satisfied with the ad ministration of public affairs as conducted by the republican par ty. Its principles and policies cover the wholefield and so wisely have these been applied and so hsnificent have been the results that the people are satisfied. The party is enough conservative to be "safe and sane," enough pro gressive easily and quickly to con form its methods to the necessi ties arising from our changed and changing social and indus trial conditions. Clinging tenac iously to its principles, consist ently pursuing its comprehensive poTicies it has yet retained that element of flexibility which makes it the most desirable and efficient instrument in reach of the people for conducting the affairs of their government. It is no easy task for the demo cratic party to find an issue for the republican party leaves none lying around loose, so it was com pelled, long ago, to become the partyof obstruction and negation. It has played at these so long a time and so devotedly, that it has lost all the power of constructive statesmanship it ever possessed. It has discredited itself with the people, and is thoroughly dis trusted. When it purges itself ancTcleanses itself from the taint of Bryanism and Hearstism and finds a real issue it may regain but until then it must remain the partyof obstruction and negation. GOOD I WILL RESULT. It is not probable any inter-national complications will grow out of the race riots occurring at Vancouver a few days since. Ja- , pan will now, most likely recog- nize the wisdom of making treat- ies w:th both Great Britain and jthe United States whereby Ja- panese coolie immigration to these countries shall not be par tially restricted but absolutely prohibited. "It is a consummation devoutly to be wished. " Much as we need ! laborers in the Northwest the Japanese have already proved that they are not the sort of men to fill the requirements of our need of labor. They are not in dustrious, not truthful, not teach able, not reliable and not at all desirable as farm hands. Such, at least, is the, verdict of Oregon farmers who have given, them fair trial. Compared with the Japs the ble. But we have found good reasons for prohibiting . Chinese coolie immigration and nowshould certainly prohibit the coming of a less desirable people. , Our, immigration laws might well exclude others as well as the Chinese and Japs. y We are per mitting a large influx of the most undesirable peoples on earth. We never can Americanize them. It is with great danger to our social and political institutions that we undertake to transform such hu man cattle intoAmerican citizens. Better let our demand for labor go unsatisfied than attempt to meet-it by importations from such sources. Good sometimes is wrought by evil. Riot, arson, rapine, murder are unmitigated evils and must be sternly repressed. But if re striction grows put of these dis turbances we shall hail it as great ' good. Additional Local.
