A Student Explains tho Advautaceu uf tha Agrlcultaral Oolleg. Corvali.1!, Oregon, AugUkt 111. 1S91 EUITOK OltKOON tL'OUT: As the time draws uear when I lie young people of Union county begin to think of educational mutter, and the question of going uway to bchool is briug agitated, allow me to ay a few words iu behalf of the Agricultural College. I am under the impression that if Eanteru Oregon people were better aware of the merits of this institution they would not be so poorly represent ed here. For any industrious boy or girl no better advantages for securing an education could be desired. Here they inay receive the best instruction in the majority of htudies which tend to expand aud cultivate the mind, not only agriculture and all things per taining to a thorough knowledge of l hie important tcience, together with the kindred arts, as chemistry, botany, horticulture, physiology, zoology, en tomology, etc., are taught, but also mechanical training is given aud liter ary studies are pursued as well. Young ladies are received and placed on an equal footing with the boys. Bpeeial courses have been prepared for them by substituting domestic economy for agriculture. Domestic economy comprises sewing, cooking, millinery, care of the sick, special hygiene, chemistry of food, social etiquette, etc. Young ladies may tako the agricultural or the B. S. course if they prefer to do so. Some pcoplo seem to he under tho impression that because this is an agricultural college, nothing is taught but agriculture and domestic economy. Now this is a very great mistake, as will soon be per ceived by any one who will tako tho trouble to read our course of study. Literary subjects are not neglected, but on the contrary receive hpecial attention. Three languages, French, Lutin and German, are taught. The agricultural colleges not only teach the same subjects as are taught in the uni versities, but they have additional facUitiet for teaching agriculture and domestic economy. Military drill is another feattuu of the college course, and the boys arc all required to wear a uniform of cadet grey during school hours. The uni forms are procured at the college and cost about if 10. The department of military Bcience will be placed under charge of a United States army ofDcer tli is year. The students are divided into companies and are commanded by cadets ehosen for their proficiency in drill, scholarship and deportment. Every student is required to perform ono hour's compulsory labor, every day, on the farm, garden or grounds, aud thin labor is made instructive as far as possible. During the rainy season, in the winter, the compulsory hour is worked in tho shops. A large, commodious, new boarding hall is Wing erected, which will ac commodate about 150 boys. Tho dor mitory formerly used by tho boys is being repaired and will hereafter be occupied by tho young ladies. This will accommodate about 50 girls. Board can be obtained for $2.60 per week, and washing 35 cents. Tho rooms are furnished with bedstead, mattress and pillowc, chairs and wash eUind. Everything ontsido of t this must be furnished by the students. Tuition h 5 per term, or flS per year. HtudeuU holding appointments havo free tuition. A preparatory de partment is attached to the college for the benefit of those who are sufficient ly advanced to enter the college course. The course which a student receives here girts him an insight into the naturo of the ehjecta and forcru with which ho has to dual, and tho general education is such as tends to rnako useful and intelligent eitlieus; which oulllvaUs the tatus of the student and onahlts hint to giro expression t hfi knowledge und opinion. h, 9, WASHINGTON. News Notos From Uu: tional Capital. FARMERS' ALLIANCE MOVEMENT. China atths WorltVf, Fair Moro S2 Notes to bo 1'rluted From the Han cock Plate. V.biiiNiiTON, August II, 1891. EniTon OitiaioN' Scout: There is more bustle tit tho head quarters of-the fanners' alliance this week than at any other place in Washington. This was partly owing to the fact that the Maryland alliance held its third annual convention in Baltimore during the first half of the week, and that at its dote many of those who attended came over to headquarters. The action of that bod iu uuanimously endorsing the Ocala platform as well as its refusal to endorse the democratic nominee for governor, seemed to meet with general approval, although those who ought to know say that Brown will receive the votes of most of the Mary land alliance, because it was tho al liance that compelled the democrats to nominate him. Tho Maryland al liance claims that it will certainly con trol the next lcgUhiluro which will elect two U. S. senators, but that upon certain conditions it. may allow Sena tor Gorman to be re-elected. Among tho visitors to tho alliance headquarters was Col. 11. C. Uom ming, Secretary of the l'ennsylvania Industrial Union, who came to com plete arrangements to havo Senator Poller and Representative .lorry Simp sen address the Pennsylvania fanners on the 21st inst. at Mount Gretna. Ho reports that the alliance and kindred organizotions will number 5)0,000 in that ktate before next November, and that they will vote practically unani mous against either or both tho old parties whenever it becomes necessary to protect their rights. It is rather a curious thing, but nevertheless true, that several Chilians located temporarily iu Washington manage to get news from Chili that America's most enterprising newspa pers do not lcceivej this is particularly so as regards tho prompt denial of any news that the newspapers do obtain that happens to be against tho inter ests represented by thebo enterprising manipulators of tho grape vine tele graph, which it seems has had a cable attachment added since the days that it was constantly burdened with full details of battles which wero never fought and victories which wero nover won. Barnum was right when ho said that Americans liked humbug, but Mr. BarMUtn dealt in clever hum bugs, whilo this sham is so transparent that it fools no one. Can Chinese visit tho World's Fair at Chicago? is n warm weather prob lem that oflicials of the treasury de partment havo been wrestling with. China was, of course, invited to tako part in the exposition, as wan every other nation with which wo hold diplomatic relations, and now the in quiry has been made of tho treasury department whether citizens of China who may desire to visit tho World's Fair are to he allowed to land in the face of tho positive prohibition of it contained in tho anti-China law. Acting Secretary Nottleton, ufter giving considerable thought to tho subject, has rofcrrcd it to the attorney gencial, preferring to havo an oflicial opinion as to what solution he should mako of the problem. Ono thing is clcaly apparent, wo cannot expect tho government of China to take oflicial part in tho exposition if wo refuso to allow its citizens to visit it at their pleasure. Tho Chineso government lias not roplied to tho invitation of the United States, further than to semi u formal notification that it has been received, and it may bo that its agents have instigated this inquiry, so that it may know hoforo accepting or de clining what treatment its citizens iuo to expect from us. There in such a pronsing and im mediate domaiid for 2 notes that tho trcusiiry department has ordered 1,000,000 of tliom printed from tho Hancock plate, notwithstanding tho uxMcnco of a dangwroui counterfeit of that issue.

A illtBsourian's Experience of Camp Mfo in tho Hills. On Tim: Kanhk, Aiium It! ls'll. EniTOit Oiikodn Scour: If you will allow nio space, 1 will give you a few itenw from the r.in,e. 1 came out. fioin Missouri last spring and iiavo been camping out on the range of Lookout, mountain all sum mer for the benefit of my hc.ilih, anil with the advantages of the lu e-ing mountain air and tho purest und cold est water that the world all'ords, I f. '1 my health very much iniprovi d, m l I believe many people who are in d'-h-catu health and confuted iu close, warm rooms would find much more relief out in the mountains during tho .sunshine mouths than they do in patent medicines. I havo fallen in love with the moun tain country aud think it far ahead of Missouri for many dilleron ton tcrpriscs. The range is line on tho Powder river and Burnt river slopes, and the many herds of cattle, horses and sheep aro in lino condition, aud I bulieve this will bo a lino stock range for many years to come. I havo boon camping with -Mr. Ben Longloy's Bheop herder part of tho time, and as it does not iteem custom ary to ask names among taiigers in this country, I will just call iiun Bob, ns tho other boys call him. Anyway Bob is n jolly, good fellow and I have become very much attached to iiiiu, as he has takon so much interest iu making mo tcel iu comfort around camp. I havo not only appreciated his company this summer, but his fry ing pan, bread and wild meats from tho mountains which lie is so handy in preparing for table use, and various kinds of us line vegetables as soil could produce, from Mr. Frazier's garden iu Eagle valley. Mr. Fred Frazer has been tending camp for us this summer. Fred al ways gets around about the right time and Bob and I always furnish him a warm reception when ho comes with Peggy tho pack mulo. Mr. Oscar Smith, n young gontlo liian from Coos county, has boon our guost part of the time. Oscar is n pleasant fellow and we havo passed many jokes this summer. I think if I could stay with Bob another month I might mako ii very good shoporcL 1 am informed that herding sheop is looked upon as a low occupation in this country. Will somo ono tell mo why, as I may herd nwhilo myself should my health continue to improve I cannot seo any disgrace in herding, and do not think any kind of labor disgraceful. Iu fact I think thoro is moro truo life in labor than anything else, and 1 believe tho honest laborers are un honor to thoso who stand back, dopending on tho working man or waiting for somo good luck to turn up. A man with a few thousand sheop trusted to his euro 1 think holds a very honorable position, und if nil tho bord ers aro like Bob, I cannot find any fault with them, Messrs. Longloy and Fruzier havo the finest band of mutton sheop that I havo seen, and any one wishing to purchase might do woll to seo them, us they are for sale. Tun Okkoon Scout has beon a wol come visitor to mo during my lonely hours, und wishing much bucccsb to it, will soon bring my letter to a close. I must say that I havo enjoyed the summer splendidly and this camp life iu western lifo Indeed that we tender feet in Missouri aro so often Interested In reading about, uud I will probably make Oregon my home, Very UMittetmiiy,
