COLLEGE LAWLESSNESS. The colleges generally are setting down cjii Uie toughs, all over the coun try, ami il is certainly time for a cam paign in the matter. A crowd of row dies go to colleges merely for the fun of it, and the experiences, beer guz zling, hazing promoters, libertines and idlers. They do a great deal of harm. Like a walking boss they sometimes influence a good many to evil. Per haps there are not many such; but there arc some in almost every col lege, particularly the big ones, and the move to eradicate them is certainly in the right direction. It should be kept up. While it is proper for young men in college to have a good time along reasonable lines, it is not right for them to develop the spirit of law lessncss and revel in the cultivation of bad habits. The fight against these things is a good one. OUR RESOURCES. Conservation of resources docs not mean to keep them out of use in Fed rral reservations. Nor do the advo cates of conservation propose to do so. The predatory interests would like to get hold of our water powers, as they have our other resources to so large an extent, and hold most of them out of use while they exacted monopoly prices for those they allow ed to be utilized. The real fight against conservation comes from that clement in the country, for with the water powers rented to any who would use, and with the rent or leases collected from grants of power wheth er used or not, it would be impossible for any offshoot of the Standard Oil crowd to gobble the electric energy provided in our mountains. IDLE PROPERTY. Any neighborhood can hold a few meetings and take steps to beautify and improve Us schoolliouscs. The expense can be made up by simply taxing the idle holdings of land in the district a little more. The man in Am sterdam, Holland, or New York City, or London, England, is not doing us any good with his patch of timber or his rented fields. Let him pay taxes on the full value of his holdings, and if he don't like it we may be sure the lariri will remain there just the same .-as it has since Adam was in the Gar den of Eden, lie is not doing any thing to keep it there. A higher tax will help improve the schools, the roads and the condition of the com munity, it may induce the absentee land holder ' -cl busy or let some body else ( . . '.;.l'y. EMPTY LOTS. Albany is advised by the Eugene Register to tax its empty lots to their full value, and thereby increase the public revenue and induce the owners lo build or get out of the way and permit others to do so. We will get after them in good lime, but mean while there are a few other cities in Oregon besides Albany with men who think they are the salt of the earth but who simply straddle and ride industry and enterprise with their land holdings. We have more enter prising capitalists, however, with faith in Albany than of the mossback spe cies, and Albany will develop rapidly lice...- -e of men who use their wealth ami Wains. THE TAFT COMMITTEE. The reception committee in Port land who had charge of inviting peo ple to meet the president were a lot of chumps. They did not invite the governor of the stale until jarred up about it. Any fifth rate newspaper juau on such a committee would have li.nl sense enough to have invited members of the slate federal courts. Mate officers, and a few leading grang ers. Taft was a guest of Portland, and not of Oregon; but the Portland fix and whiz reception committee should eat a whale a week for a year or two in the hopes of getting sonic I r.'.ins where their think tanks are lo cated. . BRYAN COMING. Mr. Bryan is coming out to the Northwest to attend llic fair before the close. A great man in character ami intellect, it is to be hoped his visit is simply a friendly i-ii, and not a political one. There is a ueticral sen iiui-nt that Mr. llryan in e-idciit as many time ; has run for is he should ,,! that further than that be should not even attempt to dictate who shall run on the democratic ticket. That i f..r the members of the party.Aand they should be permitted to do so.rtii franiclhd. Fireplace Goods. The A lary Hardware Co.. 211 W- fit st -tree', Ins the finest stock of fir- . . . .

A Eugene real estate advertiser has an interesting table: From 20 to 30 it is well to let others !,oiv wild oats. 30 to 35 the boy finds he is not as wise as he thought. 35 to 40 life is a reulUv in!:.!. 40 to 45 97 per cent of men meet reverses. 45 to 50 97 per cent have lust a'd. 50 to 60 only one in live thousand make a second sui-ces Moral: First lay the foundation, second look ahead, third save, fourth use caution, fifth prepare, sixth secure success by safe investment. This is good advice whether in an advertisement or anything else. The real estate man even if lie is trying to sell property is on the right track. Men do well not to give in to every wild-cat speculation that comes up, however gilt-edged it may look. It is dangerous business, and where one succeeds ninety-seven fail, or nearly that proportion. A man doesn't want to be so cautious that he dare not go into anything, but he should be care ful, and in investing money altogether there is nothing better than real es tate; but even in this one does well to weigh his bargain, and not go into wild-cat real estate speculations out of sight and unseen. ILL-MANNERED BOYS. It is said that some boys out at the depot during the short visit of the president here acted ill a very dis courteous manner, calling the bead man of the nation Hill and numerous other things of a disagreeable nature. Of course they didn't mean to be rude. Perhaps they were just aping the men in the off-hand style; but whether man or boy, when they conic face to face with the head man of the nation they should be polite and refined in their treatment of him. As chief ex ecutive he is entitled to some defer ence and it should be given him. The reputation of being rude is not a good one. Some people would call it ignor ance. Whatever it is called it is a good thing for boys to start right and not get to thinking that they have special privileges in a crowd. It may be true that boys will be boys, but they don't need to be hoodlums to be. JUST A TICKLER. Taft knows bow to tickle the peo ple of the Pacific Coast when he says is in favor of the Federal Govern ment issuing bonds for $5l),lX)0,ill)U to lend on irrigation projects. Sure, Mike, that will catch 'em. Speaker Canon can be relied upon, however, to veto any populistic scheme like that, h' t! -ere is going to be any bond lies -.ricd to anybody the Wall street ; : '.-.biers need them.
