I N connection with the demand for economy at uie schools of hiirher education in Oroiron, a sonoH oi i.ui- i;u miiiiuimri liv tiio Orptrnn Voter in its current edition are of interest. Tho tnbulntions are hased on figures taken from a federal report of 1922, and in con sidering them it Hliould be homo in mind that attendance at the University of Oregon has considerably increased Bince that time, and that the growth of its revenues has T.nt irnni nam with that increase. A compnriHon of reve nues from all sources of Pacific coast universities as given by tho Voter shows: , ' Ter Student University of California $572.57 University of Idaho 760.5G University of Oregon 390.fi:) ITnivornitv of Washincton ... - 354.38 The following tabulation shows the revenues from taxation of tho various universities: Per Student University of California $281.16 University, of Idaho - ?!2-P4 University of Oregon 3(i0.39 TTniveruitv of "Wasliintrton ... - 209.08 As to how well the various universities are manned in point of the number of faculty members employed, there is tne ionowing: Students per professor University of California .... - 1.1.49 University of Idaho - - - - - - - 11.71 University of Oregon - 18.30 Univorsity of Washington .... 20.18 Tho Voter finds that Orecon is more liberal than any other stato of equal or greater population, out of 6i Biates on WHICH It ijiihub iu wiuuiuwwn, i mv; iuuk- ter of providing for higher education. This state ex pends annunlly on higher education $2.80 per capita of population. Appreciation of tho opportunities of fered is iighor in this state than in any other on the Pacific coast, as is evidenced by tho fact that tho per centage of attendance at Oregon's university to the total of tho stato 's population is .822, as agninRt .463 for California, .391 for Idaho and .562 for "Washington. Such a showing is a tribute alike to Oregon's liberality in the causo of higher education, to tho excellence of tho opportunities offered at its university, and to the, recognition of tho valuo of those opportunities on the part of Oregon's young peoplo and thoir parents. Mr. Bryan En Tour. IN one of his diatribes ngainst those who venture to differ from him in religious belief, and arguing for the upholding of tho funny anti-evolution law in Ten nessee, Air. Bryan said at New York: "Wo must win if the world is to be saved." That is precisely what Mr. .Bryan said in 189(i, only then it was tho United States which was to bo saved by tho victory ho was to win for freo silver. ' Mr. Bryan and freo silver lost and tho United Slates has gono right nlong. Mr. Bryan at present is giving the most notable publics exhibition of individual bigotry of recent years. When a student nt Brown university asked him a ques tion tho othor day that stumped him, ho insulted tho student and stalked off tho platform. When a Congre gational minister at New York differed from his stnto ment that modernists cannot send missionaries abroad "because they have no messago to send," Mr. Bryan rudoly declared: "After this I'll exclude tho Congre gationalists. If they have no creed nnd stand for noth ing I'll loave them out." In his receut spooolies Mr. Bryan has repeatedly advanced the idea that "the Jiand that writes the pay check is tho hand that controls the schools." Tho impli cation is sinister. Mr. Bryan would make the test of a school teacher's qualifications his adhcreneo to a beaten track in religion. Apparently ho would strike from tho school payroll the names of all teachers who do not believe as ho believes. Since tlio Tennesseo law was enacted and il ease to test it brought in court, and since Mr. Bryan embarked upon his expedition of support for the law, people have begun to aBk about and study tho theory of evolution who never hod given it thought before. This undoubtedly is as true in Tennesseo as in other states. General iii torost and speculation in the subject have been aroused, mainly through Mr. Bryan's efforts.' Ono of two men who are to bo hanged nt Salem Friday is so crippled that ho will not bo ablo to stand alono on tho trap, but will be strapped to a board and dropped, board and all, to the rope's end. The poor wretch is guilty of inciting murder and is of no earthly uso to himself or anybody. But what n spectacle! What price justice I Petition hawkers for tho tithing bill and the bus and truck tax bill are said to be finding the going rather hard. That is good. If tho attempt to invoke tho referendum on these measures fails, that fact will go far to offset tho contention that tho initiative and referendum nro subject to grave abuses in Oregon. Speaking of optimists, there is Curl G. Washburue. Ho has worn his straw hat down town everv dav ihis past week. x .COMMENT OF THE PRESS sia. ; tn tut much denounced L.

STEWART (NEA Service Writer) WASHINGTON, , May 20. Word from France that several Ameri canautomobilc parties are in, or at any rate on the edge of the Moroccan war zone, is causing acute uneasiness here. It'a a wild country, of wandering tribesmen, with a picturesque native village here and there and a spice of peril. " ,p Adventurous tourists like it. The emphasis, however, on the item of peril is rather too heavy .to be pleas ant just now. The Gallic military au thorities are discouraging civilians from running irtfo dnnger hut the reckless ones nre hard to control. Washington officials nre .not much nfrnid Abd-el-Krim, th-e chief rebel, will kill any Americans he may cntch, except by accident. He kills Span iards, whom ho particularly dislikes, hut no far an known, he has nothing agaiiiKt tho United States. What is considered likelier is that he'll hold Amerienn captives to rnn som He does this even with Spaniard! if their friends have money enough to bo worth while. Occasionally, when somebody's relatives aro slow in re mitting, he sends in one of the pris oner's ears, as a gentle reminder. Officials are aware in advance that anything of this kind pr noticed on an American would stnrt a terrible howl, not only from the victim, but here at home, as well vehement demands that "something be done." And it might be hard to think up anything effective to do. The state department recalls that President Roosevelt had such a case to deal with once minus the detail of the amputated ear. It was that of the naturalized American he was born a Greek Perdicaris, who was kidnaped for ransom by the Moroccan bandit Raisuli. "Perdicaris alive or Rnisull dead!" was "Teddy's" cabled ultima tum to the sultan. It worked that time. The ultnn dug up the ransom himself. But there's no en Ita in to ca ble to now. An ultimatum might be served on Abd-el-Krim, but the French and Spanish impression is that he's ultimatum proof. Speaking of the sultain reminds the state department of another experi ence withthe ame ruler. A Chicago private banker named Stensland had skipped with depositors' money. He turned up in Morocco. ' The state department asked for him. "Not," said the sultan,, "while his money lats." There was no ex-1 'tradition with Morocco then. Assist ant District Attorney (now judge) Harry Olson of Chicago went over to nee about it. He cultivated the sultan socially became his warm friend. 1 II tlTssf:t II NT Then he asked for Stensland just as & friend. "As a sultain," replied the monarch, "we have our dignity to consider. We can't surrender him, but perhaps he'll go voluntarily," And he ordered Stesland locked up. Anybody who knows the inside of s Moroccan prisen knows why, in a couple of days, the captive sent for Olson and begged for the luxury of Joliet.
