the state on the land grant
question and in its promotion
of the "land grant confer

recommended a line of action
that meant nothing more mol

If by warning the people

carry the process farther by
saying that the most treason

to be found in the behavior of
the old guard leadership OF
which the Oregonian is the or

has that combination turned a

efforts have uniformly been di.

WHERE WASHINGTON IS


III is a matter of common
III knowledge among school
people that the state of
Washington has better financ-
ed schools than has Oregon and
pays higher salaries to teach
ers, thus generally attracting
good instructors.
One Of the big reasons for
this situation is the fact Wash
ington has a very large ire
ducible school fund. The fund
was created from the sale of
the states land. The land was
sold at fair prices and the pro.
ceeds conserved with conse,
quent blessings to the schools.
Oregon's school land was
disposed of for the most part
under the old political regime.
The land sold for years at
$3.50 per acre wnen it was

''PASSING THE BUCK"

NJ HE Portland Oregonian
" grows critical over the
East Oregonian's endeav-
Crs In behalf of the move to OBJ
tain 40 per cent of the land
grant money for the school
fund.
The Oregonian is noted for
its annoyance at efforts along
the line of disinterested public
service. The Portland papers
notion Of a worthy move is one
that looks to feathering the
nest Of some private combine
at the expense of the people.
It's sentiments were mirrored

hand picked and thoroughly
electrified power confer

something like $18, 900
for the fund. Such a sum Of
money, loaned at six per cent
would produce an income Of
more than a million dollars a
year.
Those who feel taxes are
often too burdensome should
join heartily in boosting for 40
per cent of the grant money
for schools. Every message to
our delegation from people
"back home" is a stroke along
this line.

completely the war and its
conditions have become not
merely a part of, or a side is
sue to, but literally the whole
British existence"
After further celebrating
his despair" Mr.. Brooks goes
On to declare: "Stay-at-home
Americans simply cannot en-
ter into or even conceive the at
mosphere of the belligerent ma
tons in this struggle"
If this is true let us fervently
hope the situation will not
change as far as Americans
are concerned. Why should
Americans worry unnecessar-
lily over a European war or
show any other trait than a
"stay-at-home" propensity.
But if the writer thinks Am
erica has never known the
meaning of war he is mistaken.
There are men still in our
midst who wear G. A. R. but
tons. They have not forgot
ten the experience of the six
ties nor have they forgotten
how certain European govern
ments, now anxious for our
aid, did many things tending
to harrass the Lincoln admin
~istration at a time when a lit
tie friendship would have been
appreciated.
Europe was not distinguish
ed for aiding our government
when the very life of the re-
public was threatened; why
should we fly into Mysteries
over the present difficulties
across the water.

. RosEBuRG,s DISCOVERY

Fostered by the enterprising citi-
zens OF Roseburg. the industry OF
producing broccoli. or winter cauli-
flower, has reached proportions Of
magnitude in the UmpQua valley, the
47th car of the succulent vegetable
having gone forward for this season.
The growers have received from the
single product not less than $50,
this year. and it promises to reach
q much larger figure another season.
Shipments are made to the eastern
markets. Climatic and soil condi-
tons are very similar in the Rogue
and the Umpqua valleys, and there
Is no reason why, inasmuch as our
friends to the north are not apt to
overstock the markets which. their
forethought has discovered, this val
ley should not profit by following
Roseburg's lead. The county agent
might well be charged with the direc-
tion OF rather extensive experiments
with broccoli during the present sea-
son, and It may be that 1t would be
found that the plant could be made
to double" with the sugar beet.
