Dccauso tho editor of this paper has commented on tho roport of tho Sate Orange, tho rogonts and management denounco him as an onomy of tho school. That assumption Is false and begging the Question. Tho fact that thoy aro sensltlvo to criticism reveals a hopoful mental con dition that may lead to great changes In the course of study. If they will get more fully In touch with ngrlcul turo thoy will sqc tho Justice of our vlow. Tho fault found by the Stafo Orange lies not with tho present manage ment, nor with tho regents, but with tho governors of Oregon, who have not sufllclontly recognized that tho prldo of Oregon Is agriculture. Moro prldo In tho real agricultural rosoiirces of Oregon would All that board of rcgonts WITH ACTUAL FARMERS, and that college with 8TUDENT8 OF AGRICULTURE. Would that bo an abnormal condi tion of affairs? Would not that bo a demonstration of a reasonablo degreo of prldo In agriculture, Instead of playing "farmer politics?" With untried soils, with sour, heavy. undrnlned, worn-out unprofitable lands with farming on an experimental basis can wo afford to spend a day at' that collego TEACHING AUGHT BUT SCI. ENTIFIC AGRICULTURE7 This Is ovldently tho vlow tho tliange Hakes. This Is tho vlow the farmors should tnke. This Is tho rea sonable vlow tho board of regents should t,ako of tho coiuluct or an agri cultural college, and that tho govor nors of Oregon shotill.t take In ap pointing regents. Political gontlomon. bankers, law- yora, omce-holdors, who wish to stapd well with ho rarmor, who visit tho collogo a row tlmo a year on regular occasion, may be good business men In tholrdlne, but aro thoy nctual rep resentatives or the tlllors or tho soil? Not by a Jugful. Oregon has too many Institutions al ready turning out prorosslonal people. Wo aro n commonwealth top-heavy with professionalism, and weak nt the ronndntloiu Industrially and In real productivity. On top or too many poorly-equlppod tenehors, lawyers, doctors, chemists. engineers, liookkeonors and whnt. tints, we havo too muoh Interior rami.

W. yester day was presided over by Grand Mas tor George Durham and was openeJ by tho report or the committee on distribution, which had segregated from tho annual report of tho grand officers certain portions to bo submit ted to tho officers of the grand lodgo and tho supremo representatives. In tho report or Grand Master Durham ho alluded to the proposed change rrom what Is termed tho classified to the level plart of Insurance. The ro port said: "Our grand lodge, with practical unanimity, declined to adopt tho pro posed plans, believing that we were strong enough to continue business Indefinitely en the classified plan now In force here. Strenuous efforts have been required to retain our member ship and gain recruits. This work has been prosecuted under much hard ship. Many or our members protest ed against changes, others bolted at once, and a reeling of uncertainty and apprehension paralyzed the efforts of many more. It must be admitted that our death rato has been unprecedent ed and that our consequent liabilities have been so large that we havo been unablo to meet them with tho prompt ness which In the past has b'een our boast. "Wo wore notified that lr we de clined to adopt tho proposed plan or tho supremo lodge we would have to assume and carry the deficiency which had accumulated and Is constantly ac cumulating on tho c'ass of members ovor the ago of 55 yeara. As wo have In round numbors about 1400 In, tills class, It will bo seen that the addl. Monal burden placed upon ns In a year Is ovor $80,000.

Cecil I.nwla had nn exnerlence with a bJg bear last evening that he will not soon forget. With his father ho went to their logging camp In the evening, and upon their arrival were Informed that acalf had been bellow ing out In tho brush, and that it must be mired. Lewis and Albert Griffins at once started in tho direction Indi cated, and upon reaching a point where the brush was very thick they saw what seemed to bo a youncr bear. On'y the head and shoulders could' be seen, and the young men were misled In consequence. However, they hast ened back to the camp,, and there load ed a couple of shells. Upon returning to the scene they round bruin gone, but soon, traced him to a point upon some rising ground a few hundred jards away. Approaching cautiously. they were suddenly startled to see a monster bear charElnu. Lewis nut un tho gun, but stumbled as he fired, and the ball went over bruin's head. The next moment he found' himself on his back, his feet In the air, and bruin chewing at ono of his legs, and shaking It as a terrier would a rat. Ho endeavored to rise and work the lever of tho rifle. This he succeeded la do ing, but when he pointed the gun It went off before ho could take aim. and the last cartridge wa3 gone. Grit flths, who had brought an ax with hlnr, struck at the bear's head. The light was poor, and ho missed his aim, the ax handle striking on bruin's head and breaking. The bear then left Lew- M and made for Griffiths, but returned almost within a moment. Lewis then kept the Infuriated animal at bav for a time by kicking It in tho nose with his corked' shoe3. Eventually the. bear made another attack upon Griffiths.
