FATE OF COLLEGE
HANGS IN BALANCE
TWELVE THOUSAND DOLLARS MUST,
DE RAISED IN TWO
DAYS.
COMMITTEE AT WORK
WANTS HUNDRED MEN TO GUAR
ANTEE S.0,0eO--No EXTENSION
or TIME Is Pos
sIBIE.

The old committee which was so
successful 1--WE years ago In raising
one hundred thousand dollars for the
Richmond college. began its work yes
terday of completing the half million
dollar endowment fund which must
be raised by January LIST, If the cam
paign for a Greater Richmond college
is to prove successful.
The first move planned and put into
execution by the committee was to
raise ten thousand dollars eonditionally
from one hundred men, the condition
being that $2,4oo in new money be
raised In two days.
Twelve thousand four hundred dailars
is needed to complete the half million,
II this fund is secured ten thousand
promised conditionally by two men.
thirteen thousand from the general
education board, will be added.
After 100 Men.
The idea OF the committe is TO in
duce one hundred men to promise one
hundred dollars each on condition that
the balance of the $12, 400 is raised by
tomorrow night. Practically all of
those seen yesterday promised the one
hundred.
There is no possibility of an extern
sion in the time allowance for the rails
ing Of the necessary money. One ex-
tension has already been allowed and
even though it were possible to secure
another those in charge Of the raising
of the funds are unwilling to accept it.
The $4,000 must be raised either today
or tomorrow or the $50, 900 will be lost,
OF the entire amount OF $1,000 600
necessary to make possible the Great
er Richmond college. Richmond was
only asked TO raise $500, 600. 81 fftn
of the amount which was secured
from New York. There has beer
more delay in securing subscriptions
in this city than in any section OF
the State and It In possible that UNI
less the business men OF the city pay
the money subscribed either today or
Wednesday, an amount sufficient &c
equal the $4,000, so that the amount
subscribed Professionally. vnose 10 be
paid provided the remainder is raised
in time complete the sum necessary
the college may suffer to a consider
able extent.
Old Committee Called.
To aid In the work of securing the
necessary amount the old COMMITTEES
was called upon several days ago, and
yesterday began their work In earnes..
4 number or men We're visited, and Al
expressed themselves as being willing
to make subscriptions or 500 II al
ditional amounts are secured to COM

committee to secure loo men willing

Their work must have the oo-opera

SUMPTER VALLEY
REPORTED SOLD

BAKER, July 1.-THE Baker Dem
ocrat says:
The persistent rumor the past few
months that the O.-W. r. e. y. is me-
gotlating for the purchase of the
Sumpter Valley railroad was given
new life yesterday in a news story
purporting to originate from Spo-
kane. which stated that the deal had
practically been consummated and
that the transfer would soon be made.
1t was also stated that the road
would be enlarged to a standard
gauge, and that the O.-W r. & n.
would begin active work as soon as
the deal was a sure go.
OF course all this is in line with
the guess work which recent events.
including the acquiring of Sumpter
property by Frank Redan, Portland
agent for the Western Colonization
company, have inspired. Redan has
acquired several Sumpter business
blocks and has attempted to get con-
troll of several business interests in
the mining town. A we'll known Ba-
ker business man yesterday was au-
thority for the statement that a high
official Of the road had as good as
admitted to him in Portland that the
stories were ture.
These stories, however, are all de-
MED by local officials of the Sumpter
Valley. Joseph Barton, assistant su-
perintendent, in commenting on the
reports and stories last evening, said:
There is nothing to 1t at ALL The o.
W. r. & N. does not want the Sumpter
Valley, and as a standard gauge road
could not operate 1t to a profit. Ger
tain events in the roads affairs re-
Gently have given rise to these rumors,
which are idle gossip and contain not
one particle of truth
The denial by Mr.. Barton is GER
tainly strong enough and other Off
cials have been as emphatic in their
denials as he, but, nevertheless, how
such reports gain currency in circles
usually alive to such transactions is
a mystery, unless there is some real
reason. Anyhow where there is so
much smoke there may be a little fire
Only the future will tell.

HOUSE AT COBLENZ, GERMANY
Speeches Commemorate Founding of
Cooperative Banking System

People Of Germany and other Eu-
rcpran Nations, Gamers.

COBLENZ, Germany July IL
(speoial) The American commission
on agricultural cooperation visited
this city today and saw the monument
and house Of Raiffeisen, founder of
the German cooperative banking sys-
tenn that bears his name It was a
notable occasion, and Mr. David Luz
bin, founder Of the International in
stitute Of agriculture at Rome. Italy,
who was accompanying the commits
sion on its investigation of agricul-
tural cooperation and cooperative
banking in fourteen European cOun-
tries, delivered an address at the
House Of Raiffeisen. Mr. Lubin said
in part:
"We are beginning to discern with
clearness that the task before US Is
not merely economic amelioration, but
that it is higher than that. It reaches
upward until it strikes the true key
note of political stability. ensuring
peace and equity, not merely for the
people of the United States, but po-
litical peace and equity wherever the
principles underlying these doctrines
shall take root.
I'VE hope to add our amendment to
the really great work begun by Father
Raiffeisen; we hope TO show that the
very root and secret of our work is
not merely to find amelioration for.
the farmer-for it would be Just as
charitable to find amelioration for the
shoemaker and for the carpenter.
the scope Of our work goes beyond.
that. In its final analysis this work
will be found to ensure not anchor
alton for the American farmer, but
stability for the American republic
In speaking of Raiffeisen and OF
his work we feel impelled to say that
whatever the results, whether the Am
erican people profit by this inquiry
or no, there can be no question as to
this: that the people of Germany and
of other European countries are gain.
ers through the Raiffeisen system.
1T now remains to be seen whether
it would be practicable to adopt this
system in the United states In this
period Of our inquiry it is too early
for this commission to pronounce in
favor of the adoption by the Ameri-
can people of the Raiffeisen system.
Further inquiry may determine a con-
olusion in the affirmative; but what
ever be the ultimate conclusion there
is no denying the hope, the strong
hope, that we may. towards the end
of our enquiry be justified in setting
forth in our finding, If not the Raif-
feisen system as in operation in Ger
many. then some derivation Of that
system"
