then a mere village, that the frame
structure which housed Corvallis col
lege served also for Il time as a public
school building and meeting house and
that all grades from the primary to
the academic department were accom-
modated. The Southern Methodist
church came into possession Of the
property in 1865. Forthwith Rev. w.
A. Finley was chosen president, with
Professor Armstrong as assistant. The
two composed the faculty. This was
the beginning.
This, then, was the institution and
such the conditions prevailing within
it's precincts when the legislature of
Oregon offered 10 locate with tin
deed, to designate 1.-THE Agricultural
College Of Oregon. Therefore in 1868,
it appearing that unless an agricul-
tural college is provided by law at this
session of the legislature the grant by
congress will be lost" ETC., the legisla-
ture of this state passed an act offer
ing to designate Corvallis college as the
agricultural college of the state, and
the board of trustees of the college ac-
cepted the donation of the state. Two
years later another definite step was
taken in the form of an act which per-
manently located the agricultural col
lege at Corvallis.
The faculty now numbered three,
DR.. Joseph Emery having been elected
professor of mathematics, and these
three 1t was who arranged a two year
course Of study and distributed the
work of 1t among themselves to be
carried along with executive burdens
already shouldered.
The agricultural course of two years
as outlined was one Of the best in the
nation at that time yet it has been
likened to a course in pharmacy with
the pharmacy left out. 1t was good

matics, and It made good, scholarly
men and women. 1t served its purpose
well in its day, and the mathematics
and science, like so many letters Of
the alphabet, have since spelled out In
full the courses introduced later in ag-
riculture, agronomy, horticulture, etc.
From this embryonic stage the
growth Of the agricultural college has
been phenomenal and particularly dur
ing the last few years. There came a
change in the Office Of the executive
IN 1872, but not until 1882 do we find
the first emphasis by the authorities Of
the peculiar character Of the institu-
ton as noted in the election of a train
ed agriculturist to the chair Of agricul-
ture and chemistry.
In 1885 the church voluntarily relin-
quished Its claims on the funds Of the
agricultural college, and the state, as
suming control, proposed to. relocate
the college at Corvallis on condition
that a brick building to serve as a col
lege building. to cost not less than
$4,000, be erected by the citizens Of
Benton county on the agricultural col
lege farm previously purchased by the
board. Corvallis rose grandly to the
occasion. The sacrifice required for
the erection of the building-the pres
ent administration building-was so
heavy at the time that 1t came like
their very hearts blood from the max
ers Of the college, but it came.
In 1885 the then agricultural col
lege" as such ceased to exist, but in
It's stead was born the Oregon State
Agricultural college. How fitting then
that this decisive point in the develop
ment of the institution should be cele-
brated at this time! The infant of
twenty-five years ago has become a
potent educational factor Of today. A
few comparisons Of its past and pres
ent scope and usefulness to the citi-
zens of this state will be apropos just
here. The first graduating class mum
bered three; the class Of 1910 will in
rlude approximately 100. The faculty
from three in 1867 has grown to nine
ty-two in 1910 The proud old lad"

building, born a quarter of century
ago, now has seventeen descendants.
From the four courses then taught
namely, agriculture, mechanic arts,
household science and general science
have developed twenty-six thorough
ly equipped departments, which offer
scientific training in as many branches
of industry as well as an education of
culture and refinement. Ten or twelve
years ago only a limited number of
students could take advantage of gra-
tuitOus instruction at the Oregon Agri-
cultural college. These came from each
senatorial and representative district
of the state. All others paid tuition.
Today any person may avail himself
of the opportunities offered at the Ore
gon Agricultural college free Of charge.
From twenty-three students in 1867
the enrolment has grown to over 1900
in 1910 including representatives Of
eight different countries and several
states of the Union.

The celebration Of the quarter CEN
tennial Of the Oregon Agricultural col.
lege at Corvallis on June ii lends par
ticular significance to the history Of
the institution. Its growth, which has
so closely paralleled that of the state
has a peculiar interest at this time.
The origin of the college harks back
to the sixties, the beginning Of an era
Of prosperity and Industrial develop
ment in the history of Oregon. Home
seeking rather than gold Seeking"
people were pouring into the state.
The tendency Of the time leaned to-
ward agricultural development and in
tellectual advancement.
To this disposition of the period the
Oregon State Agricultural college owes
its existence and present location in
part. In 1862 congress appropriated
10000 acres of land for the support Of
an agricultural college, with the con-
dition that the college be in operation
by 1867. Under this act a denomina-
tional school of the NJ. e. Church
South already existing at Corvallis
and known as Corvallis college was
charged with the management of the
agricultural college. Just here it is in
teresting to note that Corvallis was

Merrill and
O'DELL FIGHT
TO A DRAW
GO AT THE CASINO LAST NIGHT
WAS A VERY SNAPPY
AFFAIR.

The six round bout between
Slick Merrill and George O'Dell
that was pulled off at the Casino
last night was one that the fight
fans will not forget for some time
to come. 1t was near the hour of
one when the fighters entered the
ring and after several minutes of
selecting gloves, talking over rules
and arranging things in general,
the fighters went at it. In the
first, round Merrill had shade
the best of the mill but in the sec
ond O'Dell got busy and nearly
put the black man in the land of
Nod. The remaining rounds were
even to both of the combatants and
at the end of the sixth round Ref
cree Monahan declared the fight a
draw. Should the boys agree to
again don the gloves they will un-
doubtedly draw large audience.
Merrill after the fight visited the
Bonanza Office and stated that he
was not satisfied with the decision
and is willing to fight O'Dell again
providing the same would be for
twenty of twenty-five rounds and

ARRESTED FOR MURDER.

Jim Jack was arrested at Carson
Monday on suspicion of having
killed squaw at Gardnerville Sat
urday evening. The Indian who
did the shooting must have sneak
ed up to the campodie and shot
the woman through a hole in the
house. An automatic gun was used
and when the doctor arrived at the
scene of the trouble and exam
ined the dead woman he found
seven bullet holes in her body, all
of the bullets but one passing clear
through the woman. One of \ the
bullets made a flesh wound on the
husband of the dead squaw who
was sitting beside her when the
shooting was done. According to
Sheriff Wyatt the Indians in the
valley maintain that the killing of
the woman was good thing as
they have considered her witch
for some time past They also
assert that she attempted to poison
Jim Jack. who is believed to have
murdered her, and that it was for
this reason that he killed her.
