The following bit of inform.
alton appeared in the Oregonian
Tuesday as the result of an inter
view with DR.. Withycombe:
Never before in its history has
the Agricultural College at Cor
wallis been doing a better work cal
culated to fit young men for the
work of helping to bring out the
unlimited resources of the state.
This is the statement made by
DIR. James Withycombe, director
Iof the experimental station at the
college. DIR. Withycombe spent
yesterday in the city, and discuss
ed enthusiastically the work of
the Corvallis institution.
eve have at present. said
he, tan enrolment of 700
students, representing practically
every county in the state. The
work seems to be taking a tech
nical form to large degree, and
at present there are $50 young
men taking the mechanical
and electrical engineering course.
In the agricultural course there
are approximately 100 students.
The constituency of the school is
charming, and last years report
shows that Multnomah is send
ing a larger number of students,
having Sc in the engineering
course. This argues we'll for the
state, as it will help in the de-
velopment of Oregon's immense
resources. The rapid develop
ment of the lumber industry and
the utilizing of the power by
electrical plants creates demand
for these young men.
Great progress in the agricul-
tural features has been made,
and interest in this work is stead
lily increasing. In 1899 there
were but two graduates from this
course, while last year there were
seven, which number may be
surpassed this year. In fact
there is a larger enrolment of
students in the four-year agricul-
tural course than in any state in
the Union in proportion to
population.
"The standard of work in the
entire school is high at this time.
Graduates are admitted as seniors
in such Eastern institutions as
Cornell. The work at Corvallis
is fully abreast OF that in similar
institutions of the East. The
agricultural students are II per
cent of the whole student body,
or 23 per cent of the male portion.
which I regard as being as good a
showing in this department as at
any time in its history, consider
ing changed conditions in the
state"

The most interesting subject for the
coming week is the election next Tues
ay~-congressional election all over
the country, and election OF other Of
Ulcers or candidates In certain states.
Probably many citizens who imagine
themselves patriotic, will not take
the trouble TO vote next Tuesday. Let
no Kentucky citizen be among their
number. A king who leaves the ma
ton TO take care OF itself while he
goes hunting or attending to his per-
sonal interests. is not tit to be king.
The common citizen is the king In
America. He is bound to do his share
In governing his country rightly. The
way he does this is by his ballot. II
he does not vote when he has
chance he is not fit to be citizen.
Another subject OF great interest
all the time but especially now. is
the race problem" A monthly paper
called The Race Question and South

FROM THE WIDE WORLD.

A million school children IN German
Poland are on strike on account OF tn

children especially object to the use

All thru Europe there is more or
less union OF church and state and the
more enlightened countries are hav-
ing trouble in trying to make the
evils OF the system less. Not long
ago France passed law separating
the church from the state. but the
(Catholcl church is making all pos
sible trouble in the matter and the
French Cabinet is making plans for
the enforcement OF the law which
may include the taking away OF rights
OF citizenship from the Roman Cath
Ollie priests. This would be done
on the grounds that these priests, who
obeyed the Pope and refused to obey
the French government. owe their al
legiance TO a foreign power and are
not properly citizens OF France-and
that would be just grounds for dis
reimbursement. Spain Is now begin

The Citizens political position is
independent Republican. That is it
binds itself to the support of no can
didate or policy just because it is
stamped with the Republican name;
in this respect it is independent. But
because the Democratic party in Ken
lucky has gerrymandered the state so
as to make elections thoroly unfair
in their results and because the Rep
ublican party in this state stands for
fair elections and for justice to ne
groes as we'll as white men, therefore
The Citizen is Republican. To those
Of its readers who are Democrats it
has this to say:-First, whatever your
views of national policies are, we
think the reasons we have given for
supporting the Republican party in
Kentucky are good reasons why you
should vote the Republican ticket I'M
til your own party shall make fair
elections possible and stand for equal
justice to white and black. Secondly;
il you think best still to vote with
the Democratic party in this state,
go to the primary next Tuesday and
vote for the best and most honest
men on the ticket So far as we have
seen, it looks as If McCreary, candi-
date for reelection for United States
Senator, Hays, candidate for COVER
nor, and Gullion, candidate for Sup
erintendent of Public Instruction
would be more likely to give honest,
efficient public service than their
opponents on the ticket.

VOTE FOR PRINCIPLES"

This the war-ory issued Republican by their
committee because Bryan and other Democrats say
that the best way support Roosevelt in his reforms to
elect Democrats office they voted for many OF his
which Republicans opposed.
Is Bryan right or is the Republican Com
mittee rightp Both partly right and partly wrong.
The Republican Committee is right so far:
Democrats if gwen majority in Congress will make the
majorities of all committees Democratic will do all
they can to give offices to Democrats and turn Re
publicans OF Office and where Democratic policies differ
from Republican ones, they will favor the Democratic
ones.
Bryan is right so far: An honest Democrat
is much better in Congress than a dishonest
Republican The honest congressman will vote for
what he thinks is right and vote against what he
thinks is wrong no matter whether the bill to be
voted on was presented by Republicans or Dem
ocrats.
What is our conclusionP Vote for principles-the
principles held by the man you are voting for,
and let his first principle be to be honest and serve
his country, rob it, II you believe in Republican
policies vote for the Republican candidates they are
first OF all absolutely honest Any who will vote against
good measure just because it is supported by
the other party, is a rascal and ought to be sent
to the penitentiary instead of to Congress.
Let every citizen vote next Tuesday for national
Congressman but for honesty and ability not for
party name.
