He has had no opportunity to show his ability at spirited debate, but has already proved himself a leader in plain vpokun explanation of matter before th eeuate. His best addres thus far was his earnest und effective plea for the proper support of tho stau university. ........ As a plain, inatter-of-taet, business talker, Senator Ikxith of Lane has fw equals. In nominating Me Bride foi senator on the second day of the session, ha displayed eloquence, but seems gen eraliy to incline toward unadorned statements of facta and conclusions. , Advertising is ft business projKisiUon. ' That U. of O. Appropriation. Tho appropriation of $47,500 annually for the University of Oregon, as pro vided for in the Han is bill and passed bv the Legislature, puts that institution on a sound nnanciai looting, .it. i Strousr. the President of tho University, is an educator of the practical port, a man of exceptional ability, and an inde fatigable worker aim will place the I . of 0. in tho front rank of educational institutions in the West. To the untir ing efforts of S. II. Friendly, more than to any one person, is duo the credit tor bavin the University iHjrmanently fi nanced. Foi months before the Lcgis- lature met he gave his valuable tune and personal expense in gathering data with which to go before tho nglsla tivo committee. Tins act of the icn-la live assembly is not only a great help to those seeking higher educations, but is an advertisement fcr the Slate that will be worth many times the cost to the taxpayers. As Bill Nye said about kistsing a pretty girl, "if von becin advertising for business, don't try to grab ii at once. Take your time. It's there."

Owina to the pressure of appropria tion bills, the Ship Subsidy bill is not making much progress in the Senate. The Oleomargarine bill has been re ported to tho Senate, and its friends will endeavr r to get it through, but lack of time makes their s iccess doubtful. The Senate Committee on Territories has practically decided that there will not he time to art on the bill for the ad mis-sioa of Arizona to statehood at this session of Congress. . 4 4 t Extra session of Congress talk has been civen a boom by no less a person acre than the President himself. In a idiort message transmitting the report of the Philippine Commission to Con cress, the President recommends speedy 1. giidation for the Philippines. HOW TO TRAVEL.
