Tho question of raising rovenues for -Institutions of hlghor education by Bomo other way than a direct tax was discussed at tho meeting of tho Stato Grange rocontly hold at Eu gene, and while tho report of tho commlttoo was shoved oft" to tho last, nnd too lato to got It boforo tho con vention, tho mnttor nttractod a great deal of attention. For a stato with only half a mil lion population to appropriate half a million blonnlally for higher edu cation ,1s an abnormal load for tho taxpayor to carry. With tho small lncomo from tho lrreduclablo school fund, and tho needs of tho public school so great tho grange has taken u wlso atop In Booking to find some othor sourco of rovonuo to tap than tho taxpayer's pockotbook. Tho fight on tho state unlvorslty appropriation was not a fight against hlghor education as such but against Soaping up a burdon of direct tax ation that has grown out of nil pro portion to tho rost of tho Interests of tho Btnto.

SAVINGS DEPARTMENT CAPITAL NATIONAL BANK '' plo seem to be somewhat divided In their feelings respecting theso high er Institutions of learning, A groat many take an ndvanced and progres sive view, and' consider them a ne cessity in our public system of ed ucation. Whllo others look upon them n3 luxuries that can bo dis pensed with, without sorlous dnmago to tho prcsont, and tho future thoy feel no Interest In. All with a fow Isolated exceptions, recognize tho worth of theso Institutions to our advancing civilization, and yet thoro nro many, whllo admitting their vnl uo aro disposed to procastlnnto In granting them adequnto support for tholr proper development In tholr ovor widening Hold of usefulness. To overcome theso objections and to banish that desire to procnstlnato and leave to tho future tho needs of tho present, la to carry on a vigorous and continuous campaign of educa tion among tho people. To head and conduct a campaign of this kind nono nro bettor equipped for tho work thnn tlio officers, professors nnd tcncl.cra of those Institutions.

Your commlttoo unhosltntlnglj upholds tho higher Institutions of learning. Wo consider them tho nat l ors and tho menace to tielr hlghot iimuiiuiuiia ui tuiumiiK ia uuihuiui- Your committee 1b firmly Im- prossed with tho Idea that If proper Interest is manifested by the Stato Grange that ways and means can bo found In this stato to raise funds In abundance for tho adequate support and proper development of our hlgh or Institutions of learning without resorting to any form of direct tax ation. Aside from a graduated tax on inheritances and a tax on all corporations doing business In our stato, wo havo vast natural resources that if secured to tho state to hold In perpetuity for tho benefit of tho stato and her public Institutions would yield an annually Increasing revenue for years to come tht would meet the expenses of the whole Btato government. Wo have within the borders of this stato thousands of acres of mouataln laad unfit for agricultural purpose, but well adapted to graz ing and for timber. A great deal of It !b nt present covorod with forests of flno timber, on othor portions tho timber has boon destroyed by foroat fires, but With propor care It could soon again be mnde to produco mer chantable tfmbor. Theso lands should bo granted to ' tho state to( hold,ln perpetuity, with tho right to soil tho tlmbor and lease tho grazing privileges for the benefit of tho, Btato. Another natural resomrco which tho stato should havo tho porpotUAl benefit of is tl vast water, powor In tho numerous stroams flowing down from olther side oftho two mountain chains t'ravorsln'g our stato from the north to the south. Eloctrlc power fer: driving, machinery and lighting purposes, Is yet In Its infancy, but alt indications point -to Its rapid development, and electricity can bo generated moro economically by water powor than any othor process.' If thoso powers wore presorved t"6 tho stato tho rental from, thorn would increaso irom year to year as uio in dustries of our Btato grow In Impor tance and In' tlmo would bring mil lions of dollars annually Into our, stato treasury. Wo havo another natural resource in what is called desort land. Thin desert land could bo made very val uablo to tho public In general and rob no ono Individual in particular, by tho government withholding it from ovor passing Into private own ership. Let the government put and maintain water upon It and thon by a system of long leases In small tracts at a low but profltablo and non-spcciilatlvo rental placo families upon thorn to cultlvato and mnko tholr homes there. A system of this kind would provldo Independent homos for thousands who nro strug gling against adversity for a poor living and nt tho samo tlmo bring In a vast rovonuo ovor and abovo ox ponsos which should bo given to tho states In whoso borders such lands aro located to support tholr public Institutions, Your commlttoo Is of tho opinion thnt theso Institutions enn bo moro economically administered by bolng all undor ono stato board of control. Wo thoroforo recomond that thoro bo a stato board created for tho purpose of "managing our hlghor In Btltutlnns of learning. TIiIb board should consist of not loss than three nor moro than flvo persons. It should ho n mlxod board cdmnosod of both mon and women and o ar ranged In tho election or appoint ment of Its members that tho major ity of olthor sex ovor tho othor Bhould not oxecod ono. This ,bonrd should havo dlroct cha,rgo qt tho, ox pondlturp of all monoy used In .tho Intoroat of thoso Institutions. It Bhould bo its duty to oversee'' and provldo buildings, apparatus, teach ers and ovorythlng needful for tho propor prosecuting of tho work. Thoy should kcop nn account of all oxpondlturos- and mnko a detailed ro port to tho loglslaturo at tho begin ning of onch rogular sossloh, to gothor with estimates of tholr moeds for tho tlmo Intervening bo'tweon sessions. By plnctng them all under ono board of control wo bollovb thoy can bj moro economically carried on, besides It would do away with tho political scandal which has hereto fore boon attached to tho appropria tions, Your committee has only toudhod upon .sonio of tho vnluablo natural resources of our stato which should bo secured to the stato to hold in porpotulty for tho benefit of tho wholo peoplo. A. thorough Investi gation of the matter would no doubt reveal many othors which tho Btato should hold the monopoly of for tho benefit of tho prosont genera tion as woll as thoso who come after us. In conclusion your committee would recommend that this State Grango takes 3tops to collect reliable Information touching upon thoso nat ural resources of our state, which aro -now fast passing Into private hands and private corporations and lay tho mattor boforo tho proper au thorities and use the best efforts at Its command to secure to tho state In perpetuity these valuable natural resourcos for tho benefit of tho wholo poople. Wo fed sure no hot ter method for tho support of our hlghor Institutions of learning can ho doylied than that from tho In come dorivod from the natural sources of tho stato. re- Stinnct Troubles.
