If the populists are in earnest in
their support of the principle of
free coinage, let them go at it in a
business way. The thing for them
to do is to withdraw Watson as a
vicepresidential candidate and give
Bryan and Sewall hearty support.
There is no time now to be divided
by the influences of the single
standard people.

Astoria Regatta.

Astoria will hold its third annual
regatta during the week of August
1922, which will include the
State Firemen's tournment. The
battleship Oregon will be IN the

of the features will be an ocean race
between two of the fastest schooners
on the Pacific coast. Astoria is
making great preparations for the
event, and expects to entertain at
least 20, 1000 people.

Toledo, Lincoln County, Oregon, Thursday July 40 1906
The 0. A. c. President.

The board of regents of the Ore
gon Agricultural college held a
a meeting last Tuesday afternoon,
at which time they elected a presi-
dent of that institution to succeed
Prof. J. M. Bloss, who recently re-
signed. The principal candidate for
that position was Hon. H. B. Miller,
of Grants Pass, and Mr.. Miller was
the successful candidate also. In
the selection of a president strong
fight was made, some of the regents
feeling that it would be to the best
interests OF the school to place
man OF known reputation as an ed
ucator at the head of the institution.
However, this element of the board
of regents was voted down by vote
of eight to five.
The action of the board in the
selection of Mr.. Miller, as president,
does not give satisfaction to friends
of the school in this county. Mr..
Miller has many warm political
friends here, and is esteemed as
gentleman of honor and integrity,
but there is firm belief that he has
no qualification as All educator.
There is also strong belief among
the friends of the o. A. G. IN this
county that there should be an alb
solute enforcement of the school
from polotics, and the selection of
Mr.. Miller is generally looked upon
as political deal. This belief is
reinforced by the very recent res
ignation of Mr.. Miller as one of the
regents, and the appointment of
Mr.. Hughes, of ofWashington county,
to fill the vacancy. Mr.. Hughes
cast the decisive ballot for Mr..
Miller, as the vote would have stood
six and six had Mr.. Miller been
one of the regents and notvoted for
himself.
We cannot help but feel hat
there has been very unfortunate
mistake made in the selection of a
president. There is certain feel
ing against the Agricultural college
in existence throughout the state
already. This feeling was in fair
way of being overcome by the care
full management of the school, and
had the standard of the school and
its officers been kept high, this feel
ing would have soon died out. But
as it is now all the old antagonism
will be aroused.
At the meeting besides selecting
a president the board also chose
Miss Helen V. Crawford, of Albany
as instructor of elocution; H. F.
Condor, of Eugene, was made stem
ographer, bookkeeper and pur-
chasing agent; Prof. Berchtold, was
made dean of the college, and Geo.
Clark and Lester M. Leland were
given charge of the printing depart.
