DONATE LAND TO
PUBLIC SCHOOLS

That the Oregon & California land
grant, If recovered by the United
States government, should be donated
to the state of Oregon as an addition
to the irreduclble school fund, is the
opinion Of Superintendent of Public
Instruction j. Ii. Alderman, who will
bead q movement to have the Oregon
delegation in congress take steps to
have such a grant made as soon as
the land has returned to the owner
ship of the United States.
"NO better disposition OF the land
could be made" said Superintendent Mt
Ackerman recently in discussing his
idea. The land was granted by the
government to aid the development Of
he state Of Oregon Thu ough the build
ing OF railroad, The government
fixed ii maximum price and establish
ed other restrictions as to sale of the
land.

O. At the same tire the irIeducible
school tnnd, which is now only about

would get beneht of the grant, and

SALOONKEEPER AND HAT SELLER

Mr. G.. R. WAsHBURNE, the secretary of the
Model License League, which boasts that it rep

hundred million dollars" is quoted in numerous
press dispatches as saying, eve intend to show
that the saloonkeeper is as much business man

Mr. WAsHBURNE has set before himself and
his associates task which, it is perfectly safe to
prophesy, they will never accomplish. The
ture of the saloon mans business" is coming to
be very thoroughly understood by the people of
this country. The man who sells shoes and hats
or the man who sells any of the other numerous
and almost nnumerabe commodities that people
buy for personal or household use is differen-
tiated from the saloonkeeper by one broad, dis
tingushing fact-he gives his customer valuable
return for his money. The saloonkeeper, never

customer valuable return to the extent OF the

WASHINGTON'S CAMPAIGN

The Prohbitionists of the state Of Washing
ton are justified in believing that they have &C
complished most remarkably successful piece of
party work and are feeling encouraged and en-
Unused for still greater effort. The two cam
palgns that have recently been conducted in that
state by Messrs. STEWART and HOWARD are al
most without parallel in Prohibition party his
tory anywhere, and certainly have never been ap-
preached in Washington, WHERE although there
has been much earnest effort the general public
has maintained an adamantine attitude toward
Our propaganda.
Readers of this paper will remember that Mr..
HOWARD spent about month in that state speak
ing at large number of points, greeted every
where with large audiences and much enthusiasm,
and that the people at his meetings, besides pro-
vding for his fees and expenses, contributed
more than four thousand dollars to the state
Prohibition committee
Of course, this might have been explained
upon the ground that Mr. HOWARD was new to
the field, somewhat of novelty, and had been
preceded by great reputation But Mr.. How
ARD was Immediately followed by Mr. STEWART,
who is by no means to Washington au-
diences and in whose case there nothing in
the way of novelty for an attraction, and again
the people poured out in great audiences to lis
ten, and from what little HOWARD had left them,
beside providing the expenses of Mr.. STEWARDS
campaign gave the state committee more than
three thousand dollars more.
Of course, all this did not "happen over night"
There are reasons lying behind it all, and the
chiefest of these is the hard patient and faithful
work that has been done by the Prohibition
party workers of that northwestern state, year
in and year out when there were no signs of
victory to gladden. the skies and when they had
nothing of reward save the consciousness of duty
DONE
