entirely harmless, it is not respons-

The great virtue of Ely's Cream Balm

F. P. FRIDAY WOULD
COMBINE COLLEGES

The following letter from F. P. Fri
day, Of Hood River, was published in
the Oregonian last week:
'The editorial in The Oregonian of
February 22, and the letter of Robert
c. Wright of February %, about con-
solidating the colleges, is a subject
that never should be dropped until the
consolidation is accomplished. | would
go one step further would merge the
university, the agricultural school and
the normal school, and make it one
institution and at one place. We now
maintain three presidents, three facul-
ties, three boards of regents, three
heating plants, three equipments and
three gangs of logrolers whenever the
Legislature is in session. IT the
logrolers would contine their tactics
only to themselves it would not be so
bad, but they infect the whole Legis-
lature, throwing it into chaos and de-
moralization. The effect on the last
Legislature was not so bad as on the
preceding one, when we had the addi-
tional normal schools influence over
them.
"Our institutions of learning ought
to be exemplary IN every respect.
Being teachers and supposed to be in
tellectual, the proposition ought to
come from them to unite the three into
one. But being anxious to hold their
jobs we need not look for any com
ments from them, except perhaps to
defend the particular institution that
pays them their salary.
'The Oregon-Washington Railroad
& Navigation Co. is going to expend
$8, 100000 in building cutoff from
Spokane to Pasco, all for the sake of
economy in the management Of its
business. Wholesalers discharge the
salaried help they do not need for the
sake of economy. Retailers sell at
discount their stock that is superfluous
and out of date. They pull down five
and ten story buildings, throw senti-
ment to the dogs, and build over again
and do it right. A farmer finds fruit
trees in his orchard that are unprotit-
able and superfuous. He cuts them
out without any sentiment. A COW or
horse which has served its purpose and
becomes a burden to the farm is sent
to the butcher or to the woods to be
shot and buried. So let it be with our
superfious educational institutions.
Let us centralize our efforts on one,
and let that be a good one.

Uncle Sam Thinks "Star Brand Shoes
Are Better.

The fact that the United States War
Department has Just awarded a con-
tract aggregating $452, 900 to the
Roberts, johnson G. Rand Shoe Com
pany, of st. Louis, seems to indicate
that Uncle Sans prestige as a shrewd
and discriminating buyer is not on the
Wane.
The contract, covering 175,000 pairs
of army shoes, is the largest ever
awarded to any one manufacturer, and
was fairly won on its merits by the
st. Louis concern in competition open
to the entire shoemaking industry.
1t is a we'll known fact that the Gov
ernment buys shoes on strict specifica-
tions, requiring all leather. While this
requirement placed certain makers in
certain sections of the county at a dis
advantage, it operated directly in
favor of the Roberts, Johnson & Rand
Shoe Company, whose famous slogan,
mo substitutes for Leather" is ia
mIliar to the public.
The pure shoe law, drafted by the
Roberts, johnson & Rand Shoe Com
pany, introduced both at Jefferson City
and Washington during the last legis-
lative sessions, will be recalled as a
practical move to protect the consumer
against leather substitutes. 1t would,
therefore, seem only reasonable for
the shoe buying public to join in with
Uncle Sam and insist upon getting
only shoes containing no substitutes
for leather.
At the price fixed in the contract
named above, it is said the Govern
ment will net saving of $4,000 over
the figures paid last year for the same
quantity Of shoes. This order is for
Goodyear welt, high grade shoes, made
especially to withstand the heavy strain
of army wear.-St. Louis Republic.
