Although Mrs. Cleveland is out of
oflice, so to speak, it is evident that
die is still to bn -a factor in politics
and society. At the Centennial ball
on Monday night she was the recip
ient of much at tention. When she de
parted from the ball room she received
more consideration than the Harrisons.
The ladies rone en mn$fM and threw
their bouquets in front of her and
around lier. She literally left the ball
upon a roadway of -flowers. This was
woman's impulsive tribute to womanly
u rare. I'.ut then the men all cheered too.
Is it a wonder that Mr. Cleveland still
regard h.mr.eit as a cantlulate lor pre V other mount making the plea for kiml
ident'witfh a star of destiny hanging j Wi. and love and blessing rather than
just above his laid head? iV. )' H'o-,. j c,,rsiii.
Thf. Pacific coast has captured the big
gest thing yet given out by the present
administration. It is the contract to
build the mammoth armored coast de
fense vessel that was provided for by
the last congress, which , has been
awarded by the Navy Department to
the Union iron works of San Fran
cisco. Ex-Secretary Whitney is en
titled to the credit of having made it
possible to build such a vessel on the
Pacific coast by the recognition he
gave to the enterprise of the California
capitalists that established this plant
for the building of iron and steel ves
sels. The pric e of the new vessel is
to be Sl.Gi'y.OOO.

DARE NOT GO OUT SIGHTS.
What will the hundreds of thousands
of foreigners who come here to live
think of us? What a disgust they
must have for the land of their adop
ing! The only good thing about it is,
many of them cannot understand the
English language. Cut I suppose the
German and Italian nnd Swedish and
French papers translate it all and
peddle out the infernal stuff to their
subscribers.
Nothing but Christianity wiil ever
stop such a flood of indecency. The
Christian religion will speak after a
while. The bihingegate and low scan
dal through which we wade every year
or every four veais, muse be rebuked
by that religion which speaks from its
two great mountains, from the one
mountain intoning the command:
"Thou jhait not lx;ir false witness
against thy neighbor," and from the

For a few yeara past syndicates, both
foreign and home, have been through
dunwnies, taking up some of the choic
est and best lands on the coast under
the timber land act, which entitles
every citizen to purchase one one quar
ter section of land that can be proven
to be unfit toe agricultural purposes
and chiefly valuable for timber and
stone.
The last administration very prop
erly looked into the wholesale pur
chase of timber land for syndicates,
and iu many instances the department
at Washington refused to grant pat
ents on lands after they had been prov
en upon and theyirchasers had sworn
that the land wa jiifit for agricultural
purposes and vni. able chiefly for its
timber, when it was a notorious fact
that if the timbf

The Rosebut g Vlaiwleahr is against
the Agricultural college, and all insti
tutions 8uported by : taxation except
the common schools. ; But the Plain
Jeahr is in em-r in spying that the
curriculum of this college does not dif
fer materially from that of other liter
ary schools. Under i State manage
ment, we lieUevo the Agricultural col
lego is doing tl: work it was intended
to do. If brother Benjamin will come
up heie and set ;'or himself, he will
have seme of ih-; scales removed from
his even. He will e that practical
n I theoretic d agriculture and
randies related to it are taught with
thoroughness. There is no other course
of study like it in any college in thi
stale. On a little farm of thirty ti.i
acres there ar now growing and
tended by the pupils hundreds of vari
eties of every vegetable and grain that
grows in Oregon, and of nearly every
fruit and flowering shrub. When the
new building shall be finished, there
will be instruction in wood and iron
work, and boys will be graduated not
only as farmers, but, as the law of
congress contemplated, as mechanics
and skilled laborers. This college is,
in our opi: ion, the most important ed
ucational woik in the - State. It is
most important, because it is the only
institution founded exclusively upon
the idea that the business of life is to
make a living, and hence will turn
from its doors young men and women
equipped for the very thing they will
spend their lives in trying to do, that
is to sav, in providing things to eat
and whero withal they many be
