Good Price Received.
"The price to be secured for
these lands, after eliminating the
sections of possible agricultural
value, will be twice what they are
actually worth, in my judgment
and | am further satisfied that
when we consider the element of
interest to be earned from funds
arising from this sale, that these
lands will never be worth the
amount of the principal and inter
est in other words, while these
lands may possibly increase to a
considerable value in the course
of 80 or 100 years, yet their val
ne will not be as great as $40
the selling price per acre, placed
at interest for the same length
Of time, while the children of
the state will be deprived of the
earning power of this money for
many years to come. Our state
schools and other state institu-
tions are being established now,
and are in special need of funds
at this time.

saction, and the funds, amount
ing to over 100000, can be inn
mediately loaned out on farm
loans at 6 per cent interest.
Many Urged Sale.
"While we have had a num-
Der of protests against this sale,
we have also had very strong
letters urging the sale. These
letters came from representative
men in all walks of life, and in
Guided the president of the Farm
ers union in Latah county, who
may be presumed to be in touch
with the best interests of the set
tiers of his county; also from four
of the five regents of the univer-
sity, the fifth not taking suffic-
lent interest to express his views.
The elimination of the Swamp
creek lands should, to large ex-
tent, overcome the objections of
the settlers.
"The question of this sale has
been before the land board for
over a year, so that the decision
of the board is not the result OF
hasty action, but of careful in
vestigation and consideration.
The question has been before the
legislature, which refused to in
terpose any objection to the sale,
and the legal features have all
been passed upon by the supreme
court in the ease of Pike. The
board believes that no one will
be injured by this sale, but that,
on the contrary, the state will be
greatly benefited financially. II
is a good bargain for the state
made possible by reason of the
peculiar logging conditions ex.

Judge and Mrs. j. l.. Collins left
for Eugene this morning to be present
at the graduation exercises of the
State University tomorrow, when
their son, Dean, will complete his
course with the degree of Master of
Arts. Aside from the pleasure of the
trip and the occasion which called
him there, Judge Collins looked for
ward with great enjoyment to being
able once more to revisit the scenes
of early days in that region, when he
was the first white man to winter on
the site of the present beautiful city
of Eugene. That was in the winter of
1916, when the landscape was as Ma
ture made it. Game was plentiful,
and he depended upon his rife for his
food supply. His camp was at the
foot of SINNERS Butte, on the spot
where a monument now marks the
former location of Skinner's cabin.

Three Dallas Men In Boat win
Enjoy Vacation There

About seven points off the star
board quarter of the Methodist
church, lying in a secluded cove of
grass, tent is anchored. The route
is uncharted, but the few adventur-
ers who have found their way thither
have discovered therein full fiedged
boat yard in its infancy. The pro-
prietor, designer and master me-
chanic of the plant are embodied in
the person of T. c. Stockwell, who
somehow got the idea into his head
that he could build boat that would
float. In his spare moments he has
demonstrated that he could at least
build boat Whether 1t will float or
not will be determined when he and
c. G. Coad and Frank Morrison
launch it on the siletz River while
they are enjoying their vacation,
which is to begin on the ninth of
next month.
The craft is a neat, trim little
double-ender, is feet in length and of
s0-inch beam. 1t is very light in con-
struction and when covered with
waterproof canvas will weigh less
than ZOE pounds. The party expects
to explore the headwaters of the
siletz In the boat and there win be
something doing in the way OF fish,
ing stories when they return.
