spect to the object and purpose Oh the
Leland Stanford, Jr., university OF CaH-
forpia: "Generally the objects OF the
institution are set forth In tie articles of
endowment, but there is, OF course,
an object not set forth 10 them.
ia this institute desire students shall
be made to appreciate evil consequences.
There are probably in California to- day
more adult men engaged in selling dis
TILED LIQUORS than are engaged In tilling
he soil, ard am satisfied, taking the
country al large, that with the waste OF
time OF the numbers of people engaged In
The selling, and the waste consequent oy
there is q loss to the country
I'm general fully equal to % percent OF the
power of production. want the educa-
ton of students to be such as shall give
them q realizing sense Ct the I'M
portance Of temperance. desire every
student TO have an opportunity 70 prac
ticslly learn how to cultivate the soil Tor
eyery branch OF agriculture, and parsicu-
lar attention will be given TO the suol'c:
Of cooperation. / want IN this schooi
th.tour. sex shall have eqnAl advantages
with the, other and want particularly
thst females shall have open to them
eyery employment suitable 10 their sex.
Vi believe by doing so thst they Will De
stronger physlcslly and mentally ano
better fixed for wives and mothers, sno l
believe that II the avocations OF

their engaging in anything unsuitable to
their sex, they car add another 70 per
cent. to the powers of production OF the
country, and this will go far toward real
izing the possibility Of giving comfort
and elegance to all orphans. As desire
this institution to deal particularly with
the welfare Of the masses 1t will be open
to the poor as well as the rich,
and the price of tuition will be Sc
moderate ss to be within the reach

are welcome to this institation II they
win come, but the object is more particu
le-)v TO reach the multitude and the PEG
Die VINO have to consider tie expenditure
of every dollar. The hope is TO care ever
for orphans. They may oe sen
there, provided for comfortably
and will be looked after
Free scholarships will be provided 10
meritcrious young people who are unsol
to pay for their education, and such stu
dents will be gwen an opportunity t
earn money to help them through thei
