DRUIIKEN STU-
DENTS MUST GO
They Will Not Be
Tolerated
SO SAYS PRESIDENT JORDAN
Use of Intoxicants Most Be
Entirely Eliminated from
Stanford UniTersify. 1
President Jordan says thai all
drinking at Stanford University
must stop. At the first assembly
of the student body, in deliver
ing his annual address to the
entering class, he called atten
tion to the trouble of last year,
saying thrctthe ideas followed by
the committee on student affairs
last year would be strictly en
forced this semester and that
the use of intoxicants would
have to be entirely eliminated
from the university life here
after. He said:
"The drunken collegian is the
greatest injury to any institu
tion, and Stanford is no place for
those who can get drunk and
not be ashamed of themselves.
We have no time to train such
men, as our faculty has some
thing else to do than to watch
the doors of saloons. When a
man is doing the v university
more harm than the university
is doing him good, then it is
time for him to leave the insti
tution. : We have no prohibition
rules, and I do hot believe in
prohibition, but you of the stu
dent body of Stanfoxdunivers
ity have two lteruatiVsf before'
your You . must cut out Stan
ford, or you must cut out the
saloons. If we cannot celebrate
our- athletic victories without
beer-busts, then we must either
do without the athletics or else
fire our coaches and meet defeat
at the hands of the University
of California."
The statements were received
by the students with the great
est of interest, for up to this
time the exact attitude of the
faculty had not been known. I
is now clear to every one that
the lid will be down, and down
tight, at Stanford this year. Last
year the faculty set out to ac
complish this purpose, and al
lowed nothing to stand in its
way. Students showing oppo
sition were quickly disposed of,
and though it looked at one time
as though the entire student
body would " strike, those in
charge showed not the least sign
of weakening, and now that they
have their end accomplished the
drunken ' student will probably
hereafter be as unusual a sight
on the campus at Palo Alto as
he would be on , the grounds of
the most strict denominational
college on the coast. "
County t1fgh School Organization.
' The Gazette is just in receipt
ol tne oepiemDer number of the
University of Oregon Bulletin,
which treats of "Country High
School Organization and Train
ing of Teachers," and is one of
the most valuable bulletins re
cently issued by the University,
for those interested in the bet
terment of our rural schools. - It
contains an exhaustive account
of the methods adopted by other
states for the training of teach
ers, and- discusses fully the so-
called Lane county plan for the
establishment of country high
schools. To quote from it:
"This plan will allow country.
districts to organize high
schools, as the tuition is to be
paid by the whole county. The
country high school can have as
good a teacher as the city " high
school. . Inasmuch as this plan
allows any enterprising district
to start a high school, it does
away with the necessity of a
vote. The trouble with the
Union High School Law is that
it requires a majority vote or au
t.hft districts before the hieh
school is started." Under, it3
workings,- some four or five high
schools are being established in
Lane county in places where it
was impossible to maintain them
before. A small county tax ' is
levied and each high school
student, regardless of location,
draw its share of the tax; the
more the high school students,
the more money the district
draws from the county. Under
this law, country high schools
can be established in every
group of districts in the state
that is not over twelve miles in
extent, and that has fifteen or
twenty pupils that can attend
high school, lhe legal lorm
necessary , to secure, a, vote.- is
Eriven. and the Bulletin can be
secured free by writing to the
Registrar of the university, ,

CAKE SURRENDERS
Serrons breakdown Forces
State Chairman to Quit '
. All the machinery of the Re
publican party of Oregon has
been surrendered" by State
Chairman W. ' M. Cake -to,; an1
executive committee, and Chair
man Cake will take no part in
the Presidential Campaign. He
has been forced to adopt this!
plan 'through the advice of his
physician. . Chairman Cake has
been in charge of Dr.. W. T. Wil
liamson for some time, and yes
terday the physician declared
that his patient must not assume
an active part in the conduct of
the campaign. From his sick
bed Cake sent word to the execu

have to relinquish his duties
and leave the direction of the
campaign to other hands.
The committee which is to

Chairman Cake has been under
a severe strain,' for at that time
he began the management of
his brother's campaign for
United States Senator. He had
to fight through the primaries,
and then the general election,
and then'prepare for the Presi

Several hundred graduates of
the institution were on the

the race track a crowd pi college
boys fathered and gave the col

Lectures were given by col

ious other topics of "interest.
Demonstrations were given by
the college instructors in tree
grafting and in apple-packing;
Professor Rutherford, of Winni
peg, gave an instructive talk on.
judging a horse, pointing otit its.
desirable and undesirable char
acteristics of both draff ; and
driving animals; A large crowd
of farmers- heard the address
and . -every person there went
away: much more competent: tb

had ever been before. " 4 A 'rM.
-.LECTURE .WELL RECEIVED.
Addresses with . a similar pur
pose were delivered by - Pro
fessor. Stoeder, of Kansas, on
bee cattle; by Professor Scrib

tle, and by Professor Carlylersof
Colorado, on sheep. Each lec
ture being illustrated by show
ing the. good and bad . points, of
animals that were led into the
arena where the lectures were
given.
This hew feature of the State
Fair has been so extremely pop
ular that it is certain there will
be a demand that it be made a
permanent department under the
supervision of the Agricultural
College. Professor E. R. Lake,
who had charge of the college
exhibit, this year, has made a
great success in enlarging the
scope of the work of the college.
President W. J. Kerr, of the
Agricultural College, was a vis
itor today and after inspecting
the various departments of the
Fair expressed himself as great
ly surprised and highly pleased
with the splendid exposition of
Oregon's resources.
COLLEGE STRONGER WITH PEOPLE.
The college bas greatly
strengthened its position in pub
lic esteem by the1 very practical
and consequently very valuable
work it has done during this
Fair. The lectures delivered
here this week will induce many
farmers to go to Corvallis and
take the farmers' short course
next Winter, for they now as
never before realize the practi
cal character of the institution
given. .
Tomorrow will be get-away
day, the closing day . of the
greatest Fair" Oregon has ever
seen. The weather is certain to
be favorable and through the
great days for attendance were
Wednesday and Thursday, to
morrow will see an immense
crowd on the grounds.

DAY A DIG ATTRACTION
Married.
f At the residence of Floyd Lane
in-Oorvallis, Saturday evening,
occurred a wedding, the an
nouncement of which Sunday
morning was a surprise to the
many friends of the contracting
parties. The secret of the event
had been successfully guarded
and its consummation was only
additional proof of the queer
pranks of Cupid. Frank Seits
and Mrs. Gleason were united in
marriage in the presence of a
few invited - friends, Judge E.
Holgate performing the ceremony.-
- The groom is a pioneer
and prominent rancher of Lin
coln 'county.1 He has trodden
the path of loneliness for a good
many years and his friends feel
that he has taken just the proper
course m doubling up. Mrs.
Gleason is well known to Cor
vallis people and they may fer
vently congratulate ' h erv upon
this recent change in hereourse
of life. There are many good
wishes for the future happiness
of Mr. and Mrs. Seits. - -
Norcross came back
and will at once organise - the
football squad for "training pre
paratory for ihe opening of . the
football season. Mr. Norcross
is a hustler and -. knows :bow to
manage a football team on busi
ness principles, as demonstrated
in- the last year's work. He will
have practically all of his cham
pion team of last year at his
command again and, with the
new material in sight," will make
things lively on the gridiron.
As usual the battle royal will be
between OAC and U of O, and
when they meet on the Multno
mah field on Thanksgiving day,
there will be something doing.
Of course Norci oss will bend ev
ery energy to sustain his repu
tation, so here goes for a hot old
time in the football circles.
Keeping Pace
The pretty, little town of Phil
omath seems to be keeping pace
with her "big sister" in Benton
county and as the time draws
near for the opening of college,
the citizens are making earn
est effort to provide homes for
the young men and women who
are striving to prepare for life
work by securing an education
which, in this advanced age of
culture in refinement, becomes
absolutely .necessary in securing
profitable employmemt. - , .

'A Btg Injunction Suit.
Suit ta enjoin the Lebanon
Lumber Company from contin
uing the construction of a ; big
storage-pond, for logs, now be
ing built, southeast of Lebanon,
was begun in the state circuit
court at; Albany last Friday by
the Lebanon - Paper Company,
which ; operates the big '' paper
mills at this place. It is claimed
that the pond, if . constructed as
planned, will eharfge the . chan
nel of the south, Santiam river,
and ruin tne paper company s
dam in that stream and the pow
er canal to the mills.; Big inter
ests are involved and the suit
probably inaugurates a "vigorous
contest.
Watch for Him.
It is said that a certais party,
with a chronic thirst and finan
cial disability, has been .solicit
ing funds ostensibly for the re
lief of a worthy family in our
city, whom he represents as be
ing in dire need on account, of
loss from fire, and illness. ' On
behalf of the family we would
say that they suffered - from fire
alright some years agoand
are now suffering from illness
of two of their members; but
they are not hard up, ; nor in
need of cash, nor are they any
where near that point. They
would be gratified if a stop could
be put to the misrepresenta
tions and the aforesaid party re
strained from further imposing
upon the public for his own ben
efit. i'
THE BEST IN THE W0KLD
Is the American Husband-
American Woman. Happiest.
The American huaband is' the
best in the world.'says .the jRey.
Chas, Aked, D. B., in the Novem
ber New Idea Moman's Magazine.
He thinks . more of "his wife,
makes imore of - his . wife, does
more for-his wife than any other
husband 'the , world has," fver
known. Whether be 'hatlie'
best wife but that is another'
story. Certainly the American
woman' has the best favored ' .lot
that has yet fallen to a human1
being. She has more to make
her happy in her own phrase,
to give her "a good time," than
any other creature on the earth.
She has more money to spend
and better things on which to
spend.it.. She has more free
dom, independence, more power
of initiative and of self-direction.
She is a person of im
portance and she knows it.
The present writer is yet ' seek
ing a female person between the
ages of 7 and 70 upon this con
tinent who does not regard her
self or tne greatest consequence
in the scheme of things. She
quietly assumes mat- sne is
somebody. The assumption is
warranted in fact and conceded
in practice. The American
woman is, up to the present
moment, God's best - piece of
work, a'nd there are no visible
indications of outside-improvements
upon the product!
The American girl can pro
tect herself. She is not as'easi
ly led astray as the girls of many
other countries.' She'is not as
"innocent" in the absurd and
conventional meaning'" of that
much absurd word. She knows
more. She can run alone. She
is more completely mistress of
herself! There is no higher
standard of sexual morality in
any country than this. This
may be safely affirmed : in the
face of 10,000 divorce scandals
and the headlines or a sensa
tional loving press.N For every
unhappy marriage of which the
papers speak there are thousands
about which it says nothing,
But the last analysis the Amer
ican woman has .a better: time
than any other woman because
she is an American woman !

- Important in Oregon from the
outset, the Crater Lake to

now assumes the nature of an
interstate project, the highway
commission appointed by Gov
ernor Chamberlain assertaining ,
yesterday that connection of
Oregon's proposed beauty road
with the state road of California,
for which $3,000,000 has been
appropriated is feasible. Im
mediate steps will be taken to
confer with authorities of the
Golden State to the end that
California and Oregon may col-.
laborate and through their lomt
efforts perfect what may right
fully be termed a boulevard
from Harriman's retreat at Peli
can Bay to the City of Million-
airs, Passadena, nine miles from
Los Angeles.
"No greater enterprise has
ever been fathered," said Judge
George T. Baldwin yesterday,
"and the possibilities are so vast
it is impossible for Oregon to
measure its worth."
