26.— The
House committee on immigration
and naturalization submitted a fa­
vorable report today on a bill to
create a Bureau of Immigration and
Naturalization under the Depart­
ment of Commerce and Labor and
to amend existing naturalization
laws. Representative Bonynge, of
Colorado, prepared the report,
which reviews naturalization frauds
and says two principles controling
naturalization are incorporated in
the bill, namely:
That before an alien can he
naturalized he must be able to
write either in bis own language
or in the English language, and
read, speak and understand the En­
glish language.
That the alien must intend to re­
side permanently in the United
States before be shall be entitled
to naturalization.
Notwithstanding President Mul-
key’s absence, the work in the var­
ious departments of the Normal
school is progressing smoothly, and
much the same as usual.
“ What is the difference between
slang and poetry?” asked a bantam­
weight philosopher the other day.
“ It all depends on who wrote it. If
one man writes it, it is poetry; if
another writes it, it is slang.
All
the slaDg that Walt Whitman cre­
ated is called poetry.
All the
poetry written by George Ade is
called slang. Slang is poetry be­
fore it has taken out its license.
That’s the only difference. If you
write about the 'snow upon the old
inan’B brow,’ that is poetry; if you
speak of the alfalfa on the old man’s
chin,’ that is Blang.
I challenge
the world to oombat my theory.’’ —
Oregonian.

worthless. A thorough survey, lo.

available, it is not probable that the
survey will be made this summer,
