save many lives. Reducing the
mortality in this way will make
possible lower premiums. Lower
premiums will be the best OF adver-
tisements for the company and
increase its business. The more OF
this kind OF work the better.
The establishment of such SAM.
tariums would, indeed, change to
some extent the very nature of the
insurance furnished. In addition to
life insurance the company would be
providing health insurance, at least
so far as this one disease is con.
cerned. The man who buys policy
would not only be protecting his
dependent family in case of his
death, but he would be protecting
himself in case he falls a victim to
tuberculosis. That is the kind OF
protection that would be worth
having all by itself.
How far such health insurance is
possible Of extension is a fair ques-
ton fer consideration In those
countriel in which doctors are hired
by the year to care for families and
keep them in health if possible
something of the kind is done on a
small scale. Possibly some day the
method will be capable of expansion
on great scale by big companies
which employ all the best methods
of prevention as we'll as of cure -

HEALTH INSURANCE.

A few years ago life insurance
companies were trying with one
another to see which could spend
the largest amount of money on its
agents to induce them to bring in
new business. That was wasteful
and hurtful. Today one of the
largest companies of New York is
talking OF spending several hundred
thousands Of dollars on a sanitarium
for the care Of policy holders who
have tuberculosis. II is now apply
ing to the New York state insurance
departures: for authority to buy
land for the purpose. How vastly
better is this method Of spending
money than the old!
Primarily, sanitarium is pro-
posed to cut down the death rate.

reports that about forty five OF its
policy holders die every day from
this one cause, and it believes il can

A DIFFERENCE

Congressman Martin has been
criticized for securing the appoint
ment ofhis nephew, James Dobson,
of Mitchell, to a clerkship in Wash,
ington. Some have sought to
establish a parallel between this
case and the appointment Of Ralph
Gamble by his father, in which case
the son was receiving comfortable
salary as page in Washington
while he was really attending school
at Port Deposit, ninety miles from
the capitol. The comparison is
entirely unfair. Mr.. Dobson, we
are informed, while be does pro-
pose to begin the study Of law next
winter in Washington university,
can do so with perfect propriety and
at the same time perform all the
duties OF clerkship which he holds.
His working hours are over at 4:30,
and the law lectures OF the school
he intends to enter do not begin
until $50. 1t is quite the common
thing in Washington for young men
to study law evenings while working
during the day in the government
service. Huron Spirit.

Oregon Agricultural College. Cor
wallis. Jan. 14.-At the recent meet
ing of the Board of Regents of the
Oregon Agricultural College it was
found necessary, after thorough in
vestigation of the affairs of the col
lege, to petition the state legislature
for a considerable increase in the
state appropriations. The Board will
ask for an increase of $4,000 a year
for maintenance; 100000 per year
for equipment, $500 for a Horti-
cultural building. $4,000 for a CEN
tral Agricultural building, $4,000
for a central heating plant, and $685.
600 for an Armory and drill hall.
Up to this time most Of the sup
port has come from the United States
government, but the attendance is
now so large and is increasing so
rapidly that the support from this
source has become entirely made
quate.
President. Kerr's report which has
Just been made public contains some
very interesting information regard
ing the work done at the college and
the conditions which prevail there.

the games were all and more than

it and vim they could muster-just as
II they expected to win. This was all
the audience desired.
The brilliant exhibition of the pop
ular game put up by the visitors made
up for the disappointment in the loss
of the contests to the lacol teams.
though 1t was not hard to discover
on which side were the hearts of the
spectators. Every burst of speed or
brilliant playing on the part of the
locals-and there were several-was
greeted with deafening cheers
In fact at the opening of the Sec
ond game. when without ony inter-
mission the visitors were rushed from
the Academy game into one against
the high school team. reinforced by

Los Angeles players soon settled into
steady gait which enabled them to
roll up a comfortable margin before
the close of the last half.
Potter and Groenwald showed
they were some stars themselves
while Kimball and Storie put up the
games of their lives.
This was the thirty-seventh game
for the Los Angeles players and with
one exception every game has result
ed in a victory. The one exception
was in the game against the Wash

Every man on the visiting team is a
star and was in the game at every
stage, The ball would shoot into the

the attendance during the past four
years is double that of any of the
segregated land grant college except
Washington state college. That in
the last college year the increase in
attendance was more than double
that Of Washington state college, and
as high as five times as great as that
OF some of the other colleges.
Another feature pointed out in the
report is the great improvement and
extension of the work in agriculture,
During the past two years the num-
ber of courses in agriculture have
been increased from 40 to l69. Dur
ing this time the increase in the num-
Der af students pursuing the degree
