ASHLAND. ore. Jan. lS.-Mrs.
Louisa c. Tozer. wife Of ]. r. TozeF.
died after a lingering illness, aged 6l
years. She was one of IL children of
the late Claiborne Neil, pioneer Of
Jackson county. and in infancy came
across the plains with her parents in
1853.
BAKER, ore, Jan. l9.-Papers
were served Saturday on Frank Kur-
anishi, a Japanese. conducting a large
grill and three-story hotel in the heart
OF the business district. and Miles Lee
and Carl Alder, owner of the pro-
perty, invoking the abatement law to
close these places for year, and to
prevent their use for any purpose for
that period. 1t is charged by the Dis
trict Attorney that the places have
been used for immoral places but II
is not charged that the owners knew
anything about 1t.
SALEM. ore, Jan. l9.-Declaring
that the northern section of the county
would give a large majority in favor
of the $3.50, 900 bond issue for build
ing permanent roads, Blaine McCord,
lawyer OF Woodburn, who was in
the city said all that was needed to
create a favorable sentiment in all
parts of the county was dissemina-
ton of facts and figures. He declared
there was more enthusiasm for the
issue in the neighborhood Of Wood
burn than in this city. Mr.. McCord
is being urged by his friends to an
nounce himself for state senator. and
there is probability that he will do
so.

rI1E uNlNERsIrY,s VALUE.

A little pamphlet entitled "Some
Facts About the University of v,r-
Sinia," recently issued. clears up some
Observation-Disclosures regarding the
amount appropriated by tho State to
tho university and gives some inter
osting information us to tho work it
Is doing. An attempt to measure In
dollars and cents the benefits to Vir-
ginia performed by the university ro-
suits in some interesting reading, and
publishes some facts which have not
heretofore received any great amount
OF attention.
The actual cost Of training given to
tho i74 students from Virginia Is esti-
mated ut s14S.s6o, and the amount paid
by those students is reported as being
i25.9o5. The state, therefore. receives
from tho university sl22,1G7. About
SEQ students from other States attend
tho university md spend moro than
100000 In Virginia. The pamphlet
estimates At s35o.ooo the amount her
were they compelled TO seek their
educatlon elsewhere, and counts this
as a saving to the state.
The value in dollars and cents, how
ever, is the least the State receives
from tho University OF Virginia. AS
Tie pamphlet says. II Is absurd to re-
duoe TO figures tho true benefit to the
state III IS moral intellectual and
spiritual rather than fiscal
Those who read this pamphlet cannot
help being impressed more than ever
with the great work Of the University
OF Virginia and the vast amount OF
good It has wrought The university
deserves Of the people OF tho state the
warmest support. and from tho Cen
eral Assembly should receive in appro
priations all that can possibly BE- spared
TO that purpose.
