IMPROPER CRITICISM.

The Eugene Guard delneans
itself by its recent attack upon
President Chapman, of the
State, University. A mans
household arrangements cannot
be considered a legitimate SUBJ
ject for newspaper criticisms.
The Guard condemns President
Chapman for employing a Jap
anese servant and adds:
cit may be the fault of lack
of aesthetic culture and training
that renders Our western people
incapable of ;appreciating the
propriety of taking such male
servant into household co1npos-
ed of but man and wife. Our
training, however, has been ac-
quired in the wild and woody
west. and we may not be capable
of appreciating the cosmopolitan
spirit and brotherhood-of- man
ethics displayed in daily house
hold association with the broth
er of the yellow race. We hope
we shall never advance to a stage
of culture where such compan-
ionsllip will be agreeable"
The employing of Oriental
servants in the United States
was original with the "wild and
woolly west" But it is hardly
the custom, as the Guard would
imply, in either the east or the
west, for families to make house
hold companions of their Chi
nese cooks.
The Guard has over-stepped
the bounds of newspaper propri-
ETY. in its structures. The EN-
ployment of family servants has
nothing to do with President
Chaplnan's educational and ex-
ecutive abilities.

A QUESTION OF PARSNIPS.

A bushel of bulbs is the root
of the present trouble at the Ore
gon Agricultural College. The
botanical department is panic
Estricken.
Prof. Hedrick and Mr.. Maude,
of Monroe, have had a tilt con-
cerning the plants that were re-
Gently experimentally fed to
calves on the college farm with
deadly effect. "Come into the
garden, Maude," requested the
professor, land be taught the
secrets of the parsnip and the
hemlock. Maude came with a
brickbat of authorities and the
professor hastily retired.
The case is interesting. A
Lincoln county farmer sent to
the college a bushel of bulbs
and asked their name, stating
that cattle feeding on them
died. =
The botanical department con-
cluded that they were wild pars-
nips. Some eight years ago, at
the college, wild parsnips were
fed to cattle, with no bad effect.
The Lincoln county bulbs were
fed to two calves, which iminedi-
ately died. Ergo, wild parsnips
were poisonous.
Mr.. Maude suggested that the
bulbs were not wild parsnips,
but wild hemlock. Prof. He'd
rich had in the meantime been
informed by practical botanists
that the plant fed the calves was
wild henlock, which contains a
deadly poison. He then pro-
ceedcd to inform Mr.. Maude
that wild parsnip and hemlock
were one and the same thing.
The latter asserted the contrary,
quoting Huxley and Fanhi-
land.
Mr.. Maude is evidently cor
rect. All the authorities recog-
nize the existence of a plant
which they call wild parsnip.
The wild heinlock is another
plant altogether. and does not be-
long to the parsnip family. 1t
more resembles parsley. Wild
parsnip, when eaten, sometimes
has malignant consequences
from the excess of acids, the
same effect that, in a lesser de-
gree, green apples cause. Ma
tured, it is harmless. Wild pars-
nip is not poisonous i'll the sense
that wild hemlock is poisonous.
1t is plain that the two calves
were sacrificed because the bo-
tanical department of the college
lacked botanical knowledge.

feelings and disciplining all the agents
of expression, rather than fashioning
him after certain model and sacrificing
individuality to arbitrary laws. The
benefits of this course are felt all along
the liHc of study. There are no set rules
to learn and the pupil, being compelled
to think and act on his own judgment,
IS prevented from becoming mechanical.
He is taught to read intelligently and
understandingly and this training proves
very helpful to him with his other stud
les. In connection with this depart
ment, instructions are also given i'll phys
ical and voice culture.
During commencement week, it is
Miss Crawford's intention to give two en-
tertainments. One night will be devoted
to literary contest, III which represent
atives from each of the half dozen liter
ary societies of the college will take
part. The other evening will be taken
up with a popular elocutionary enter
tainment and will be participated i'll by
only the very best talent in the school.
THE PROFESSORS
Prof Horner has made English litera-
ture life study. He is careful and
discriminate reader and an untiring STU
dent. He graduated from Philomatt
College with the degree of Master Of
Science and later received the degree of
Bachelor of Arts from Willamette Uni
versity. Hs taught his first school i'll
Benton county i'll 1872. He has been
connected with educ ~tional work nearly
all his life and has been exceptionally
successful. He has had charge of the
department of English at the Agricutur-
al College for several years and his work
has always given satisfaction.
Miss Crawford is a gradulte of Will
lamette University, having been pupil
of Miss Brown, who rccei we'd her train
ing at the Emerson School of Oratory
Boston. She is one of the uiest popular
professors at the college and the impor-
tance of her work can not be over esti-
mated. The pupils generally evince a
deal of interest in this department and,
under Miss Crawford's able direction,
have made wonderful Improvement.
Mrs. Ida B. Callahan is graduate of
the COLLEGE. She is an intelligent wo-
man and capable instructress and her
long connection with the college as
teacher has been uniformly successful.
Miss Callahan also teaches history and
grammar.

INDECENT JOURNALISM.

A vulgar and indecent adver-
tisement appeared in the Orego-
nian of March 18th. The Ian
guage used would have shamed
the Police Gazette. 1t is need
less to remark that the Oregonian
is altogether too decent to'publish
such uncleanliness free. The
advertisement was too columns
wide and half a column long,
and was well paid for.
In the same issue, the Orego-
niar editorially apologized for
filling its columns with prize
fight news, referred to ingalls, as
an intellectual harlot" and re-
marked that the "the idea that
girls should be protected from
evil associations may BE all old
one, but woe betide the family
in which it is recklessly disre-
garded."
The Portland Oregonian is a
synonym for shameless hypoc-
racy.

OUR OWN LANGUAGE.
Instruction in English at the
Oregon Agricultural Col
., lege.

English is the only language taught
in the regular courses at the Agricultural
College. This department of the col
lege work is we'll equipped and every
student is required to devote regular
amount of study to this important sub
ject.
A thorough course in English includes
instruction of the understanding and in
struction in expression. At the college
as much time is given to the practice in
the art of expression and the study of
the use of words as to the study of the
philosophy of language and the laws to
which style must conform. Besides the
regular textbooks, the best English au-
thors are studied and the students are
made familiar with the cream of English
literature. The college literary societies,
six in number, admirably supplement the
work of this department.
The college library is we'll supplied
with representative works in the Englisl,
literary field, while Prof. Horner, who is
at the head of the department, has one
of the best private literary libraries in
the state, to which students are kindly
given free access.
Miss Helen v. Crawford has had
charge of the freshmen class this school
year. The class is so large, about I5c
students taking first year English, that
she could not give necessary time to the
students of elocution proper. Mrs. Ida
B. Callahan will next term take charge
of the Freshman English studies. The
text books used i'll the first year work are
Lockwood's English and Cathcart's Lit
erature The students are taught the
use of dictionaries and encyclopedia
They are give. general hints as to mar
gins, paragraphing, punctuation, capitali
zation and preparation of manuscript
They take UP letterwriting, grammatical
and rhetorical and classification, history
of the English language and anlysis O
words.
Prof Herner has direct charge of th.
advanced classes. The professor does no
favor 'smattering'' education, but he ha
established systematic course. He in
structs the student in principles and de
tails and urges upon him to BE- thorough
The student is taught to criticise intelli
gently aud write creditably. Master

this department deserves.
CHAIR OF ELocUTIoN.
At the beginning of the present schoo
year, the chair of elocution, with Mis-:
Helen Crawford, of Albany, as instruc
tor, was temporarily added, and the
splendid satisfaction she has given as
sures its permanancy. The Emerson
method of instruction is used by Miss
Crawford and is designed to
teach oratory as an art, the theory of in.
struction being based upon the laws oi
nature, and tend more than other meth.
DDS to develop the individuality of the
student. The pupil is taught to make
the will sovereign, leaving him free to
express his thoughts and emotions ac-
cording to his own Interpretation, by
cultivating the imagination, guiding the

If the counties can, under the
law, apply the money raised for
state taxes to the reduction of
their debts, instead of sending it
to Salem for the state treasurer
to speculate with for two years,
they should certainly do SO. If
the law forces this money into
the state treasury to lie idle, as
far as the state is concerned, for
two years, the people have but
to thank the Corbett-Sinon-
Scott Lord Kincaid populist com
bination for it.
