11AISINO REVENUES FOR HIGH
ER EDUCATION.'
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.
What tho Report Means.
Tho rqport of tho state grange

nnd moans to get monoy by othor

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.
Lot thorn Bet forth tho manifold ben
oftts to mankind to bo dorivod from
hlghor education by making It possi
ble for all who seek a hlghor educn
tlon to find It by menna of our public
InBtlutloiiB of learning. Lot thorn
mnko theso Institutions boneflclal to
tho producing classes of society, by
ovor bolng on tho nlort In guarding
their Interests nnd liberties, by warn
lng thorn of tho danger.? and taking
stops to prevent tho over encroach-

i,y interesting thoniMlves In tho nat-
urai roiourcos of our stato and lead
In securing a portion of them to tho
stato to bo hold in perpetuity for tho
benefit of th stato and her Insti
tutions. 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.
