Immediately after arrival the
company piled out of the train,
began to unload their camp equip

after which they marched awuy to
their (luurters at the armory and
wero dismissed. The boy lost no
lime in hurrying to their homes
and donning citizens garb again.

military cota that were used during
tho Camp Clatsop encampment,
which wero hauled to the armory

stood that these eots will be used
for s lee il ilk purposes at the arm

by the various visiting drum corps.
I'nder tho caplhiii. "Pro fan It v
in tho Classroom." the 1'ortluiui
oreg.miau today prints the fol
lowing editorial, which will be
of interest to local mining men,
iuifsmuth as It was tho report of
tho parly most eomerned that
.deflated the great Jackson county
tin boom of Ht2? :
Public opinion wilt uphold
the action taken by the ro
. gents of Oregon Agricultural
college in asking for the res
ignation of the dean of mines
of that Institution, in view of
the facts as given out offi
cially, co ii tied with other In
formation that has been made
public.
i Protest against the regents'
; decision was made by tho
Kastern Oregon Mining asso
ciation, which cited as tho
grounds for the dean's dis
I misKiil his "exposure" of so
called tin and platinum dis
coveries in southern Oregon
and his use of profanity in
the classroom. The associa
tion urged an investigation of
the charges.
J. K. Weatherford, presi
dent of the board of regents,
declares that tho controversy
over southern Oregon miner
als did not enter into the sit'
nation, but that tho hoard
acted "solely on the busts of
personal and administrative
conduct on the campus, which
tho board deemed incompat
ible with the high standard
insisted upon at this Inst it u
linn." No denial Is made that tlTo
'use of profanity In the class
room was alleged, and Mi.
WVatherford says that there
was a detailed hearing of tho
accusations. From unofficial
but reliable sources it is
known that the retiring head
of the school of mines was
charged with using extremely
violent and blasphemous lan
guage before his students, in-
eluding groups of freshman
boys. The vote to oust him
was unanimous.
Io tho mining Interests
which have come to tho de
fense in this case intimate
that such conduct should bo
condoned? More latitude is
allowed these days than for
merly in methods of teachnig
and of scientific Investigation,
but academic freedom cer
tainly does not extend to per
sonal conduct that violates
the proprieties. Our colleges,
public or private, are not .the
place to introduce barroom
standards of expression.

The application yesterday of
Krank Crouch, superintendent of
I tho Pacific Shaleries and Timber
'company, formerly the llartmann
Syndicate. Inc., for a railroad right
of way over a tract east, of Hear
i creek, designated by tho county
court as a county road, yielded a
crop of conjectures, locally. The
j county court denied the applica
tion, with tho proviso that If any
thing more definite was produced
favorable action would bo granted.
Commissioner' Victor liurs e I I
said this morning:
"I told Mr. Crouch, that If he
, would get the backing of the Mcd
I ford and Ashland chambers of
commerce, and show ho had sub
tuntial hacking, that the county
cturt would go further than half
way."
Commissioner Jtursell also said
that about a year ago un applica
tion wus made for tho right-of-way
"by two other parties." who said
they would file formally If "they
! Interested the partlctt they thought
i they could. Nothing ever came of
this.
j Mr. Crouch In his application
jgnvc no hint of his financial back
ing, or if ho was representing in
terests other than his own com
pany. The county road right-of-way
extends from Agate to Kant Jack
son street. According to Mr. Hur
sell, a survey has been made from
Agate up Antolopo creek for about
ten miks into the mine and timber
holdings of the Pacific Shnlerles.
The stakes have been driven.
"I also understand," mild Mr.
Iturm-ll, "that there Is n low divide
between this section of tho coun
try and the Klamath country. A
road could bo built to tho Weyer
haf user holdings without serious
engineering problems, I am In
formed."
It has been known locally for
-some time, there was considerable
nil! maneuvering going on In
southern Oregon, one . outstanding
Incident being the granting by the
Grants Pass city council gC an
option for (10 days to Jr. J. K.
