Bookish, learned college professors from the university centers, well dressed worldly pedagogues from the great cities, awkward youths from the district schools, and last, but not least, thousands of gaily-gowned, smiling school ma'ams from all over the broad land these are the com ponent parts of the vast crowd that has captured Cleveland today. This afternoon Mayor Tom Johnson turn ed the keys of the city over to the Invaders, thus formally Inaugurating the semi-centennial convention of the National Education Association, founded In Cincinnati In 1858. It is estimated that between 20, 000 and 30.000 teachers are In the city today and every train Is adding to the number. ' Among the features of convention week will be a national spelling bee, in which grammar school students of several cities will compete for na tional honors. The attendance may swell to 60, 000 or more. The record attendance in the history of the N. E. A. wbf at the Boston convention in 1903 when 35,000 teachers were register ed. Cleveland entertained the asso ciation 38 years ago. The city then had a population of 92,000 and Its guestB. members of the association, were 170. The organization then was eight years old. The national spelling bee Is to b held In Rockefeller park, and the open air reception In the university circle, Jn which 500 boys will sing, three bands play and thousands of electric lights furnish illumination The work of preparation for the con vention has consume! almost a year. The $60,000 needed for local ex penses has been collected by sub scription. POPl'LAR XI I'I,E WKDS. Mr. Frank Kirk, son of Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Kirk, of Drain, and car i:lerk In the Southern Pacific train dispatcher's offices In this city, and Miss Nellie Case, stunographer In ihe local olllces of Forestry Superin tendent S. C. Burtrum, were quietly 'edded at the homo of Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Kent, In this city, Sunday night, June 28. 1908, Rev. C. A. Itexroad. of the Methodist church, jouth, officiated. The young couple left on this morning's southbound flyer on an extended honeymoon trip, which will ultimately terminate at Alturas, Calif., where they will re side. Announcement of the wedding of this young couple cams to thelt many friends as a complete surprise, albeit a pleasant one. Invitations to tbe happy event were limited to Immediate relatives of the groom and a few close frlenda of both him self and his bride. The Kent horn was adorned with boquets of beau tiful roses, and after tae ceremony supper was served. Mr. .and Mrs. Kirk will be greatly missed among the younger set, where they were both very popular. Mr. Kirk's departure Will be felt also in the local band and orchestra or ganizations, where his services as a clarionet player were of high order, in Journeying to Alturas, Mr. and Mrs. Kirk will go by Way of Sacra mento, Calif., and Itcao, Nev. Two weeka from today the matter of street paving In Roaeburg will be formally decided, as the 20 days In which to file remonstrances will have expired on July 12th. It Is already known, however, that the remonstraaceB will be -very few. If any, as most of the heavy property ownerB are actively In favor of the paving. Since about 88 per cent of the oters went on record In favor of this splendid and greatly nwded Im provement In our clt. after hga nev er really Is -en any fMgftt. that the worn Would tie done ajrn aa the necessary legal preliminaries could ba attended to. Itaaidse the gnt convenience of baaing i4tved streta It will alau prove a apieadld business Investment for our cltw. Since the taxpayers uf tbe city liave voted a bond Inane to par nae-half the cost of the ivriTi. and tr built tbe I)rer Creole bridge, the owners of property fronting on the streets to be ftaved will certainly not object to paying the otlx.r half of (He expense of an liMirnvnnnut frnm whlrh thsv will receive the greatest benefits WhlTej Roseburg has beeii growing nlcfiy during the past few year. Its growth will be far wwre rapid from the time the street.- paving Is begun. O Cha. L.

TWELVE NEW LAWS. CtiamU'rluln's Proclamation Duly Is sued June 1. Twelve law and constitutional amendments enacted by the people at the election June 1 have been in effect since Tuesday, June 23, when uovoruor unamueriatn Issued a pro clamation declaring them to be a part of the law of the state. ' Taking them in the order that they were promulgated by the secre tary of state. It will be Been thai the time for holding the general elections will now be the first Tues day after the lirst Monday In No vember, InBtead of the first Monday In June. Consequently the next gen eral election will be held In Novem ber of 1910. By reason of thin change primary elections for the nomination of state and county offi cers will in the future be held in September, the primary law fixing tie time for holding the primaries at the 45th day before any general election. The governor's proclamation thus makes both fish bills effective, so that Columbia River Ashing It strictly regulated on both the upper and lower rivers. Under the provisions of the prisoners- feeding bill drafted and en acted by the legislature primarily foi the benefit of Sheriff Steveus of Multnomah county, all sheriffs in Oregon are now the sole custodians and guardians of the prisoners in their Jails. In Multnomah county al so the sheriff Is allowed 1214 cents a meal for the food furnished to the prisoners. By virtue of the same vote of the people the University of Oregon Is safe In Ite appropriation of 1125, 000 for 1907 and of the same amount for each year thereafter. It is now possible for all public offlclalB who are not doing their duty under the law and custom to be recalled bv the voters who are dis gruntled over their rallure to fulfill the oaths taken.

It will not be binding up on the members of tho legislature elected In June last, The proportional representation amendment is now In effect, and yet is not effective. The amendment pro vides for proportional representa tion, but leaves the legislature to wrestle with the manner of securing such representation. It Is contem plated by the amendment that the leglalature by statute should provide a way of Becurlng such representa tion. It will be up to tho next leg islature therefore to enact a law put ting Into effect the constitutional amendment. The corrupt practice act Is now a law and from this time on It is Il legal to offer cigars to prospective voters and political Bupitorters. In fact, under the act it is illegal to do anything except silently cast a ballot In tho box, or at leant nearly as cloBe drawn a condition as that. Here after campaigns aro Ui ho conducted through the Secretary of State and State Printer, so far as advertising Is concerned. The slate printer Is to make pamphlets setting forth the claims of the various candidates at to why they should be elected. The cost of the pamphlets Is to be borne by tho candidates, who are to pay from 150 to 1100 a page for thelt space. The Secretary of State will mall the pamphlets to the registered voters a few days before the primar ies and another set shortly before the general election. Grand Juries have come back to the people of the state and the dis trict attorney of any district Is not empowered to sit as a grand Jury from this time on. All Indlctmentr are now to he 'returned by Juries and the ailug of Information on lb complaint of the district attorney Is a thing of the past.

James. Laird, of Sltkuin, Coos county, tho veteran stage-line man, has a very largely signed petition to the county court of this county, asking for an appropriation of $1, 000 for tho tjiprovemont of the wa ?ou road fr' m the 18-mlle house to the ccun'.v!. lino. ThlB Is perhapa the worst portion of the old Cool liny wagon road, reaching, as It does, ver the "backbouo" of the Coast Itaiige mountains. It Is Imperative that this road should be substantial ly improved or the mall service be tween Roseburg and Marsh fluid may bo entirely cut off during next win tor. The Mnrshfleld Chamber . of lommerce during last winter used every effort toward expediting the mall Bervlce between these points and a large portion of the heavier mall had to be diverted to other routes tho Drain and Coos Bay roulo or by steamer from San Fran cisco. To--avert the probability of losing this trafflo altogether, It la im perative that the road between Rose burg and Marshfleld be put Into such condition that tho malls can be car--Ind through In a reasonable time at 'ill seasons of the year. Mr. Laird's petition has been almost universally signed by Roseburg's' cltlzenB and will doubtless be favorably consider ed by the county court. i'te OTP JULY EXCUB0N 0ACg.
