the expenditure of state money for
higher education a laudable proposition
if confined to Benton county, having
rien tha normal schools but feeble
support when it should have been for
them whole-heartedly, me noma or ine
.t.ta nnivarsitv. Lane alone of all the
valley counties seems to have absorbed
the spirit of Horses Msnn, bsving
antad Btronirlv for both tne Asnisna

than 800 greater than Umatilla's.
