The War Dejmrtmout has arranged to
open recruiting offices nil over the coun
try, so as to procure the Wn provided
lor in tho Army Reorganisation 'bill M
rapidly as possible. " ' "
, in ;
If our representative, L..T, Harris,
maintains the high standard so .far
marked by hie course in the Legislature,
ho will fill a neat In the United Stated
Congress More many years pass over
his head. '
Sound Sense.
TheOregonian oppose Representative
Harris' measure which provides for a
fixed State levy for University purposes.
Rut the measure is a jut and equitable
one and should beeume a law. The idea
of an institution depending front year to
year on tho disposition of the Legisla
ture to provide a liberal fund or a scant
fund for its maintenance, just as the
humor fits them, is a bad poliej to pur
sue. Let the fund be fixed by law, end
thereby put the University on a solid
fiuancial basis. There is no other way
to build up the University, buch an in
stitution should not be held in subjec
tion to the fitful moods of a Legislature.
The Harris bill is all right, and tor the
good of higher education la Oregon it
should, by all means, become A law.

of tillable land, while tho non-tillablo aggregates 1)011,505 acres.. Of this vast acre

One big item is the 00,000 head of borne and mules, tattle, shwp, goats ami
