When Oregon, Washington and Idaho territories were organized by Congress, Oregon in 1S49, Washington in 1853, and Idaho in 1863, by their organic act they were each given 800, ,000 acres of public land for school purposes. Also, when California was admitted into the Union as state, in 1851, still this liberal grant of 500.0O0 acres public land was donated for the same purpose. Washington and Idaho territories, and the State of California and Oregon, are all proud tO~day of their univerSi> ties, built ana maintained from the proceeds of the sale of these
 lands, and whose institutions are among the first in the country.
