UNIVERSITY OPENS AUGUST 80
Nevada Students Will Receive
Many Advantages by Attend
ing Our Home College

When the University of Nevada
opens on August 30 the indications
are thatit will begin its most prosper
Gus year. Applications for admission
have been received universally from
the high schools of the State, and
where last year there were two
freshmen from a community, this
year there have been applications
from twelve, and in many cases the
entire graduating classes from the
local high schools are entering the
University this Fall.
The best place to educate the
young men and women of a State is
in the University of that State. All
the more progressive States are find
ing this out and the tendency of the
Universities is to shape their courses
so as to respond to the particular ed
vocational needs of their people in the
highest possible degree.
This is essentially true in Nevada
where our conditions are so differ
ent from what they are in all other
States. The graduates of other Uni
versities, coming to Nevada, FIND
themselves in many respects far less
fitted to cope with the professional.
industrial and economic demands
here than our own University gradu-
ates.
On the other hand, the University
of Nevada is supplementing that
portion or feature of its training
which relates to Nevada alone with
as broad and solid an education along
general or universal lines as any of
the larger Universities are able to
give.
The University of Nevada opens
on August 30th. and every young
man and young woman in Nevada
seeking an education who a find
the opportunity to pursue a course
there should do so.

Southern Pacific
Gets the Long Haul

ST. Louis, No., Dec. 2.-The govern
ment stood pat today ON its insistance
that its action to dissolve the Central
Pacific Southern Pacific is proper. The
defense on the other hand maintained
that the government had not the right
to attend dissolution of combines exist
ing before the Sherman antitrust law
went into effect.
The government holds that the CHIEF
reason for the combination is the de-
sire of the Southern Pacific to handle
Central Pacific business via New Or
leans and by water from there to tho
Atlantic seaboard. Such handling d.
verts business that might otherwise
pass through Ogden and be handled
over the Union Pacific, the shortest
route from the Pacific coast to the At
lantic.
But, it is contended, when the South
ern Pacific can divert the business via
New Orleans it shares particularly
heavily in the division Of through
rates, whereas the combination nets u
much decreased share when the Central
Pacific Union Pacific route is used.

Potatoas Are Firmer.

Portland, Ore, Dec. 2.-Much strong.
er tone is showing for potatoes along
the coast, with growers asking more
money. While purchases Of select quail
ity potatoes have been confirmed in the
country at $1.l0 per GENITAL, and there
is talk of even nickel more than Jhis
being paid, shippers contend that the
outside demand is not keen enough at
the moment to force additional rises.
Some interests claim that the present
advance is due entirely to speculative
interests, who purchased heavily at low
er prices some time ago, and who are
now trying to stop movement from
the farms in order TO take at least q
portion of their profits.
The fact remains that while the mar
ket for seed potatoes is quiet at the MO
mcnt, owing TO the lack Of sufficient
moisture ftI planting in the south, the
table stock is commanding full value,
although on nn higher basiO than the
present marie. in the Willamette val
ley.
Latest reports from the immediate
vicinity of Portland indicate that the
late crop is much below earlier eXpecta-
tions, and that some Of the sections will
have but little TO offer during the re-
mainder Of the season.

Capital Journal Special Service.)
Oregon Building, P. P. |, f., Dec, 2.
In appreciation Of the hearty cooper
alton of the San Francisco and Oak
land newspaper men in the effort to
bring Oregon to the attention of the
exposition visitors, the Oregon commits
sion gave a banquet at the Hotel St.
Francis, Friday night, at which TWEEN
ty.five notables were present. Com
missioner G. l.. Hawley, resident COM
missioner on the job just now, heard
more kindly things about Oregon and
Oregon participation in the exposition
than he ever imagined any bunch OF
men could say, and he was made to feel
that the Oregon commission and the
men in cnarge here certainly mad ac-
complished tremendously for Oregon.
George M. Hyland managing secretary
for the commission, presided at the
banquet and with others voiced Ore
gon s sincere appreciation of the gen
erOus treatment accorded everything
of interest to Oregon. In turn, the
newspaper fellows told of the pleas
ure that had been theirs in helping
men striving so sincerely and energet-
I ically to give the exposition the best
tnat was possible for their state in re-
turn. Kellogg, of the Call-Post, urged
a continued good fellowship between
the states of California and Oregon,
and ably told why this should be so.
Congressman Knowland, of the Oak
land Tribune, made a strong address
along the same line. Manager Furay,
of the United Press, pointed out that it
was easy for Oregon to get lots of
space because Oregon was always do
ing something worth while. A dozen
others talked in like vein, and all were
particularly happy in expressions to-
ward Manager Hyland, wnom they pro-
claimed to be the one man above all
others who had won his way to hearts
of all and made luppossible for Oregon
to stay in the limelight at the exposi-
tion. Paul j. Rainey secretary tO
Mayor Rolph, who represented him on
this occasion, voiced one of the most
glowing tributes ever paid any man, q
tribute to Mr.. Hyland in which every
man present gave enthusiastic acquies-
cence. the finale of the occasion was
a toast by Commissioner Hawley in
which he voiced one Of the most ap
pealing sentiments ever heard at The
st, Francis, "Here's to you my friends
may you live a hundred years just tC
drive dull care away in this human
vale of tears. And /, too, would live
a hundred years, a hundred years less
day, for | would not care to be or
earth when you have passed away
Tho occasion was fraught with gool
fellowship and will go far toward ce
menting the happy relations formed
between Oregonians and Californian
during the exposition.

Hop Association S Lack Of
License Is Now Big Question

Portland, Ore, Dee. 2.-Questions of
the Legality of the Oregon Hop Grow
ers association is being raised now
that the organization is being reported
to be taking in its hops.
The question arises from the fact
that the association is alleged to carry
no government brokerage license.
Whether one is needed or not is what
government officials here are about to
investigate. The problem has arisen in
the trade as to whether the associa-
tion's business would be legal if gov
ernment license is needed.
The trade is divided as to its ideas
in the matter; some contending that no
license is needed but others assert that
tine association demands certain com
mission on its sales and therefore must
obtain a permit.
There is but little doing in the hop
trade at this time; the dealing being
mainly between brokers. Ralph Will
liams who has been one of the chief
operators for several months, although
buying through other brokers, said yes
terday that he had cleaned up all his
deliveries for the season. Mr.. Williams
made big bunch of sales to English
interests some time ago and practically
all his contracts called for prime hops.
The result was that the market was
often forced higher by those who had
sold shcrt to him and certain quality
was demanded. Mr.. Williams shipped
5000 bales to England alone during
September and October.
1t is now stated that $4,000 bales
have been shipped out of the state
since the season started leaving $1,000
bales unsold in all hands.
julius Pincus purchased lao bales
from dealers at Sc to 10 1-2c pound
and Harry L. Hart purchased two loads
aggregating 80 bales.

The Proposed Amendment.


A writer in the Capital Journal says;
No person should vote on this ques-
ton but those who pay taxes"
Who pays the taXes2 Only the pro-
ducer and consumer. The middle men
and professional men pay no taxes. The
merchant g customers pay his; the law
yer's clients pay his; the doctors pa
tients pay his; the bankers borrowers
pay his, and so on down the line. A
consumer, or producer, may own no
property, but he pays taXes,--pays them
in the shape of reduced wages, higher
rents, and the increased price ON what
he buys
A doctor of one of the manipulating
schools said: ~ must get enough out
of my patients to cover my rents, my
living expenses, my taxes, and surplus
for rainy day. That is the prin-
eiple cf all professional activity.
The common mutt, if he borrows
money, pays the bankers taxes; if he
fees doctor, he pays the doctor IS
taxes; if he employs a lawyer he pays
the lawyers taxes; if he buys groceries
he pays the grocer's taxes and in
addition, if he owns little home he
pays his own taxes, for there is nobody
