A divided city council is in the way of intich that could be accom plished in the best interests of our city. Linn Comity Council patrons of Husbandry and Governor Cham berlain are very ehumiug, but the vote of the people on the University of Oregon appropriation will re move the stain put on the slate, by so great a majority that the oppo nents to education will forget that thev are on earth. Citizens are waking up and not only soon will they be heard from but at luture elections candidates will have to show their hand pretty thoroughly before people interested in the welfare of Cottage Grove will stand for the "stand still" movement now going on. The city council evenly divided with the mayor on the wrong side A8 ""ZW&f? Of rJI ity oaddies may say the mayor is on the right side. We say get unani mous and give Cottage Grove a chance to grow. F. B. Thilllps is a good presiding officer, a man in whom the people have confidence and the Commer cial Club made a wise selection in electing him president. It is cer tainly the right thing to pass the honors along, third terms are not popular and one term is the best policy. The retiring president, Fiu gid Hinds held down the chair for one year with honor to the club and credit to himself. Mr. Hinds was rigid in cading meetings at the tick of the clo'-k and hit method of dispatching business canuot be im proved upon. He did not believe in clique rule or the appointment of committees that would not work. He retires with the good will of all and is sure to continue his effortB through the club to secure for Cot tage Grove all that is coming, as has been his motto since the or ganization of the club. lu the nummary of cash on hand in the Oregon banks outside of Portbinil, the reports of December .'trd to the Comptroller of Curreucy makes a splendid showing for the financial institutions of the state and gives the First National Hank of Cottage G rove fourth place in the State for reserve fund on hand and first place in Lane county. The law requires a reserve fund of 15 per cent. The First National of Cottage Grove has 51 per cent, or 3G per cent, more than is re quired. Conservatism, accommodation and straight forward business principles count when close timps are immi nent. We do not boast over less fortunate communities, but we con gratulato ourselves on having solid banking institutions in our city, and feel some pride in reading that Cottage Grove has a . bank that leads nil baukiug institutions in the county for reserve money on hand to pay its patrons. I B. riiiIHp8 nnd other property holders on Main street eucomaged the paving project brought to the attention of tho Commercial Club Monday evening. Pen Lurch, prob ably the largest holder of frontage and on whom the greatest expense of any one man wouM fall mado no objection but did not commit him self. We venture to say that when the issue is up Mr. Lurch will not bo fouud in tho back ground. Ho has always been In favor of city iru provements and to tho front with his share of expense. He knows a good thing when he sees it; every dollar expended in street or city im provements adds ten to tho value of the property. Of course you can count on Mr. Lutch. PORTLAND CORRESPONDENCE. The statements of the National banks of Portland ou Dec. 3rd proved that they had ample cash more than the most enthusiastic had anticipated. The same is true ol banks throughout tho state. "ICighty chances to wiu you can't lose" is the slogan of the port laud Commercial club in its final work connected with the foOOO prize contest closing Dec. olst. People in general seem engrossed with the fiuancial conditions, and their neglect makes the chances of those who do compete even more pronounced. The Oregon apple has captured the Orient and Russia. Yadgjog lou Rrotbers of Vladivestok, after making a display in one of the principal show windows of the city, removed tho display and after it was crowned and surrounded with American and Russian flags it was photographed aud is to be repro duced in colors for international ad vertising. Thus the glory of the Oregon apple goes around the world. The displiy was unusual becaupe most of the boxes were shown ready for ocean shipment, each encased in burlap. Varieties of apples included the, winter ba nana, Ortley, Hyde's King, and Ar kansas Black. "Profitable Advertising," pub- j:l,.i t--. leading journals of its character in tho United States, reproduces the letterhead of the. Oregon Develop ment League in its December num ber, and prints an exhaustive letter from the secretary telling of the League's niethous and accomplish ments. Oregon is nationally known for her development work. October and November statistics for wheat and flour shipments from Portland and Puget hound ports are particularly interesting as show iug the immense resources b.-ing converted into actual cash in Ore gon and Washington. 7,434,091 bushels of wheat aud C40.012 bar rels of flour are the exact figures yet it must be remembered that the crop is only just getting under way in earnest. During the two months of Fall colonist rates. Sept. 1st to Oct. 31st the Denver & Rio Grande railroad sold 8,081 homeseekers' tickets to the northwest, which was an in crease of 2,817 over last year's bus iness, or more than 00 per cent. President K. T. Judd, of the Ore gon biate JJuiry Association, be comes more enthusiastic as the con vention approaches and says that tho 12th of December will see a splendid Jot of dairy products en tered for award. Tho committee in charge of arrangements is already in receipt of several cheeses from Tillamook and the next boat will bring a very complete line for dis play. Delegates are being named by the various commercial bodies in every mail. The meeting of Oregon business men at the Portland Commercial Club on the 1st, followed by the announcement of Governor Cham berlain that the present holidays would be discontinued after the 14th have been the most discussed events of the week. That the representa tives from forty communities should unanimously uuite in resolutions forcefully expressing confidence in the outlook and financial strength of the entire state is in itself indic ative ot constantly bettering conditions. Mineral Locations on School Sections. F-ditor Daily Mining Record-1 have a croup of four mining claims located. Three of them are in whole or in part 011 a school Mo tion. In amended locations I have tho claims grouped and have each claim recorded nnd named ob bo longiug to said group. lam run niug a tunnel for tho purpose ol crosscuttiug the ledge. Tho tunnel is in tho hill to a depth of 125 feet, crosscuttiug the formation. The tunnel is not ou the school section but near the section line. I have information from the cleik of the state land board that the school section, "at a later date is to be ad vertised and Bold to tho highest bidder." What is my status with my mining claims? Oregon Sub scriber. Answer. The so-called school sections upon the public domain are granted to the Btates by tho na tional government. While the grant is a general one and reservation is made thereunder, it is mauifest that the title cannot pass to tho slate until survey is mado aud approved. Only a general answer is possible in this case, because it is supremely important to know whether the sur vey of the school section has been made and approved and the title passed to the state. This is import ant, for the reason that it is the in tentiou of the government to re servo mineral lands, the grant in cluding only non-mineral lands. If, however, the title passes to the state under the assumption that it is non-mineral land, the title is not revoked by subsequent discoveries of mineral. When the usual school section, No. 10 or 30 of the town ship, falls upou laud that in known to bo mineral bearing, the mineral ground is subject to location and the state is indemnified by an allot ment of uon-miueral land in some other section. Iu the case of min eral lands that have passed to tho state the discoverer must deal with tho state. The state ot Colorado holds two sections in the Cripple Creek district. On the other hand, some of tho richest ground in the Goldfield district has been staked Huuiu jonMuiy nave passed to the state of Nevada had it been surveyed before the discov ery of gold at this place. University Notes. The University of Oregon is ex- psriejeing the largest demand in its history for graduates, both men and women, to take principalships and positions as teachers in the high schools of the state. Of the fifty-three members of last year's class, twenty are teaching in the high schools and colleges of Oregon and the northwest, and the demand was much larger than the supply. At the present time there are a num ber of positions vacant, because there is no one available who is ad equately prepared to ttke them The University would bo able next year to place as tenchers some forty or fifty men and women, if its grad uating class furnished that number. The class of 1!(08 now numbers about sixty members. University of Oregon football men ourmg tuo season just past have mado good records in the class room as well aB on the football field. The records of the Regis trar's office show that of the twenty men composing the regular squad, only half a dozen have received grades as low as 'D' in any of their subjects. There hae been no fail ures and their work as a whole compares favorably with that of last year, when in the final exami nations in February, tho football team . ranked slightly better than the average for the whole student body. The records show also that for the two months just past, foot ball men have cut fewer classes than any other class of students. Reports of absences of all students are sent to the Registrar's oflice daily aud a careful record is kept. Tho University works on tho theory that students are there first to study, and this means regular at tendance at classes. Announcement.
