merce Commissioner Prouty, who
has been through the West as far
as Portland and Spokane, was in
interviewed on his return to Wash- j
ineton and said: "It is useless to
talk about where the people stand
as to second choice. They're for
Roosevelt pretty much regardless
of party. Nobody else is talked
about."
"Is the sentiment growing any
stronger or is it waning?" was ask
ed. "Why, it isn't growing any
stronger," Mr. Prouty replied,
"simply because everybody feels
the same way and what is unani
mous cou't be much strengthened.

Salem, Or.. May o.-The rudi

school, to be taught ua bunch or
side line from the ltudie
and to occupy th same importance
to the country icbool at manual
training does to the city schools, is
the innovation tut President W. K.
Newell, of the State Board of Horti
culture, is strivicf to introduce into
the public school systrra of the
state. At every opportunity he is
acquainting the patroni of the dif
ferent districts with the practicabil
ity of and advantages to be gained
from his theory. Teachers' insti
tutes in the valley give him especial
opportunity,
Mr. Newell believes the first
branches of the itudy of horticul
ture could be taught in the country
districts to pupils who care to take
it up to great advantage, and that
more benefits would be derived from
practical standpoint from this
course of study in fruitgrowing dis
tricts than from the ordinary school
studies. He says certain publish
ing companies have prepared com
prehensive textbooks upon horticul
ture for this special work, and that
these are well adapted to prepare
the beginner for useful services on
the farm or a more extended course
in the state college.
Mr. Newell's plan would be to
give an hour or half hour's recita
tion each week, otoftener if desir
ed, and employ a special instructor

Mr. Newell says he has found

indications are there will be a boun

the possible exception of apples.
which the heavy yield of last year
and the long dry summer taxed to
the utmost in maturing their fruit.
The consequence is a comparative
ly light setting of blossoms this
spring.
The Weather.
The nights were cooler than usu
al, and during the fore part of the
week temperatures of 32 degrees
and lower were not uncommon in
the high valleys in the eastern and
southern portions of the state.
Light frosts occurred frequently in
these districts, but they did no harm
of consequence. During the day
time there was an abundance of
sunshine and the afternoons every
where averaged warmer than usual;
this excess in temperature during
the afternoons was most pronounced
in the western counties, where the
temperature averaged about eight
degrees-above normal in the north
and about five degrees above nor
mal in the south.
The week was practically rain
less, as the only rain that fell oc
curred for a few hours on Friday
and it was confined to the Willam
ette valley and southern Oregon.
It was barely sufficient to lay the
dust, and rain is needed in all parts
of the state.
OTHER STATES
PAY MORE
OO N'T THROTTLE THE SCHOOLS
Other States Make Liberal Appro
priations for Support of
State Universities.
(Seattle Times.)
It would appear to us that Ore
gon can scarcely afford to throttle
its university. That state has not
been lavish toward its leading ed
ucational institution, which never
theless has always maintained a
high place among the universities
of the West. The tax-payers of
Oregon would pay only 3-10 of a
mill to furnish the appropriation of
$H5,ooo.
The State ol Washington sup
plies its university with $225,000
per year for maintenance. Idaho
has appropriated $250,000 for two
years and California's appropriation
approximates $1,000,000. The to
tal annual income for the University
of Colorado is $166,000, North Da
kota $152,000, Utah 194,000.
The University of Oregon has
been on a basis of 80,000 for the
past two years, and was on a basis
of $60,000 for the two proceeding
years. Of these amounts $47,500
was from a fixed annual appropria
tion, and the balance from a special
appropriation of $62,500 in 1905.
President Campbell, oi the Uni
versity of Oregon, says if the refer
endum were invoked on the $125,
000 appropriaaion the university
would be forced to depend for
year and a half on the old fixed ap- jever carried
propliation of $47,500 per year,
plus some $10,000 or $12,000 re
ceived annually in interest on uni
versity funds. The number of
students has increased since 1003
from an enrollment of 218 to an en
rollment of 340, exclusive of the
departments of law, medicine ami
music, which are practically self
supporting. It would seriously
hamper the university to care for a
half more students on the old ap
propriation of 1903. Any develop
ment of the departments would in
evitably be delayed until the fate
of the appropriation could be deter
mined at the polls a year from next
June. Such a result could not fail
to prove calamitous.
So much for the immediate effect
on the university, Ultimately, it
would appear, the appropriation
would stand, as only a small mi
nority of the people of the state op
pose the bill.

That the Columbia river will be
on a rampage within the. next
month, is the opinion of many who
have noted and compared with for
mer seasons the weather conditions
of the high water period. While
the average temperature for April .
was normal, it was not a snow melt- j
ing month. The days were comfor- j
tably warm, but the frosty nights
all over the watersheds of the Col-j
umbia and Snake rivers checked all
tendency of the snow to melt. J
