A VERY PROPER MOVE.

The New York State Society of the
Son of the Revolution has purchased
Frunces tavern, which stands at the
southeast corner of Broad and Pearl
streets, New York City, and which
was originally the mansion of the Le
lancey family. Having later been
turned into a tavern, it became as
early as 1858 assured of historical
memory, for in that year it witnessed
the organization of the New York
chamber of commerce.
But the event which madl this tav-
ern interesting in many other ways
and is of greater interest was its
choice by Gen. Washington as his
headquarters when he entered the city
after its evacuation by the British.
The great general remained in New
York City but nine days. Then at
noon on Thursday December 4th
1888, he summoned the chiefs of his
army to meet him IN the great room
of this tavern. Thus came about the
famous farewell meeting of the Ameri-
can generals at the close of that re-
markable war. The scene has been
described as follows:
"It was one of the few occasions
in Washingtons life when he gave
way to emotion. With the men before
him he had shared the perils and
hardships of the long years OF the
war. His words to them were: With
a heart full of love and gratitude
now take leave of you, and most de-
voutely wish your latter days may be
as prosperous and happy as your for.
mer ones have been glorious and
honorable He drank their health,
and after a pause said: I cannot
come to each of you to take my leave,
but shall be obliged if you will each
come and shake me by the hand
Gen. Knox came forward first. and
then the other officers silently I'M
turn"

TIE INTELLIGENT WREN.

(John Burroughs,in May Outing.)
One cold day late in December, on
going to my "Slabsides.' found a
winter wren in the spare chamber. y
As entered the bird did not lose its
head at all, as birds usually do under
such circumstances. 1t did not, in a
sudden panic, make dash at the win
dow, but circled about, came out the
door, flew down the stairway, passed
between two windows without heed
ing them, and went out the open door
What struck me was the coolness and
circumspection of the little bird. It
appeared to know all about windows,
and that they we're not what they
seemed, and it appeared to know the
lns and outs of that house like an old
occupant. | concluded that the wren

Company, has bought large tract Of
gold-bearing land six miles from Gold

that is taking out $500 to $1,000 a day

AZ buckets that hold eight to 10 cubic
feet of gravel, or, heaping full, yard
of earth. These buckets are on an
endless chain, and a bucket and one

will dig 50 feet deep. The capacity of
the dreIger Is $4,000 cubic yards per

FARMERS AND THE AGRICULTURE.
Al COLLEGE.


The state grange in a report raise,
the question, whether the State Agri
cultural college might not be made
more of a farmers college, anC
showed that out Of 354 young men IL
attendance only So were taking the
course in Agriculture.
The Journal always seeks to place
the responsibility where it belongs
and in place of finding fault with the
college, directed the attention of the
grange to the fact that out of thirteen
members Of the board of regents ap.
pointed by the governors of oregon
only one was a farmer
The Journal did not say these re.
gents were unfit or improper men in
any sense of the word, but If board
of all farmers were appointed to run a
business college the unfitness would
be very manifest, and the criticism
would be fully as pertinent.
OF the lawyers, bankers and poll
ticians who have been made regents
for the Agricultural college there is
one notable exception who is farmer
in practical sense of the word, and
that is w w. Cotton, attorney for
the o. r. & N. Co.
We are informed that he is conduct
ing personally large farm and max
ing 1t pay as a business, and so far
aas Mr.. Cotton is concerned, the crlti.
81 cism is unfair. He was appointed by
SGovernor Chamberlain.
To make this whole matter plain,
there are farmers and stockraisers
in Oregon who make that their sole
business, who DO not rely on some
profession for living, and who do
not farm as amateurs, who SHOULD be
put on that board of regents.
A capitalist or public official or
lawyer or banker who lives at some
big city. and incidentally owns several
farms or herds of cattle and who
farm by proxy, can hardly be called
a representative OF the great agricul.
tural class for whom the college was
Intended.
BY no stretch of imagination can
the present board of regents be ac.
cused of being band of horny-handed
tillers of the soil They are city
men, public officlals. men who man.
age politics, anything but farmers, and
this is not said as any reflection,
Farmers of the state have reason
to be dissatisfied with the agricultur-
al college II it is run too much into

In the direction of agriculture, and
that seems to be the case
