Tho warehip Baltimore and Charlea- 1 ton, paasod up lt Saturday morning at 7 o'clock, on thoir way to Portland, the Baltimore ruirning about two milea ahead of her companion hip. In passing thi place they were saluted by the atoam aawmilla, to which they promptly responded, and also at the " lighthouse jut above town. It waa a groat surprise to bur people to aeo the peed of theae monater vessel in the river. Thoy were probably making Uteen miloa per hour when they passed thi place, and reached Port land about 10: 30 o'clock a. m., where they were royally received by the clti zona; Indeed, the coming ot the presi dent would not attract half so many people to Portland aa did the arrival of this fleet. They will probably atay In Portland two or three woeka, after which it I thought they will be ordered to Bobriog aoa, and later to Nw York. Our people ahould not mlsa this oppor tunity to a these two no t vessels ol tba United Sutea navy. In lhe case of the State of Oregon vs. Mr, vy. M. Qrtddii, for asiwult and battery upon the person of Thomas McVay, an unruly pupil, tried in the circuit court Wednesday, the jury, after a few minutes' deliberation, re turned a verdict of not guilty. Our reader will remember that about the middle of January lust Mrs. tiaddi was arraigned in Justice Burnett' court at Ooblo for punislUng this boy, who was at that time a pupil in her achool. The jury la tho justice' court ("Una the defendant guilty a charged in the complaint, and the justice placed the fine at 150 and costs, alto gether amounting to (110 f The defendant at that time gave notice of appeal to thi court, and bore it only took the jury about fifteen minute to decide that alio waa not guilty. A we stated at tho time of tho former trial, the whole proceeding from the be ginning wus a farce, in fact an imposi tion upou both Mra. Quddia and Co lumbia county, having caused both a targe expense for nothing. All the belter class of citieens admit that the punishment inflicted upon the buy was no more than he deserved. Some people are too prompt to go into court without cause when the slate i at their back. Thi case is an example that ahould not be. lost sight of for aome time to vome. The regular meeting of the Ben Harrison Republican Club was held in the courthouse last Friday night. The minutes of the previous meeting was read and approved. Thirty-six new names wero retried as being en rolled for membership since last meet ing, making the total membership of the club fifty-nine. The Glee Club furnished music for the occasion.

Johnnie reporta that a very en joyable lime was had, and he ao doubt wuthe birthduy dinner would come of toner. In the asaossmcnt case .tried at Salcin Wednesday, wherein the legal ity of the state board of equalisation's action for raising the assessment iu the stale was (lending, Judge Boise decided thai the acliou of the board was legal. Tbe case will now ge to the supreme court, and a decision is looked for oori. Captain F. A. Lamont wa on our treat again one day thia week, lhe first lime for several month.

New York Journal. Sehoolhoa Notes. Dan Richardson visited school last Friday, and Bert Mason was a visitor Tuesday. ; May Slavena and Modjeska Tiuk- ham, of Gillton school, answered cor rectly question No. 1, 2, and 3, Little Lavel'.e Watkins, Mabel Strachan, and Sherman Milea, are fre quent visitor at school, and are 1 way well behaved for such small peo 7r ple. We would be very much pleased to receive the directors at school any day. They have not paid us a visit thi term and we are beginning to fed lighted. It might be the proper and correct thing td teach a little table etiquette at school, siuce we learn that one of oar schoolmates came near drinking the content of his finger-bowl at a restaurant in Portland last Saturday. Last Saturday moat of the - school children gathered on the river bank to see the warships pas by on their way to Portland. This is an event lonir to be remembered, and the salute from the Baltimore was of such unusual character that it leaves a lasting im pression on the minds of all who heard it. About fifteen ot the pupils went to Portland to get a baiter view of the fine war vessels. It is, to say the least, tery bad form for a public speaker to, assume that men of hia own calibre are the only people of sound judgment and cor rect vies. We also think it poor taste for a speaker to bemean aud find fault with those who differ with him, es- pecially after telling hi audience (hat he doe not believe in "vituperation." No teacher can sit quietly by and hear (nose oi in proiession classed as crank and narrow-minded people, and not feel justly indignant. Teachers are, and ought to be proud of their profession. It Is one of the highest and most important of all profession, since teacher have the training of mind on which the future greatness of I hi country depend. Teachers should be proud of their profession be cause tome of the grandest and great est mind of thi country have sprung from their rank. Ja. O. Blaine, the most learned, the moat talented, the most widely known, and possibly the greatest thinker of the world, was once a teacher. Teachers should be proud because they have an honest, a neces sary, and a conscientious work to do. Enough ha been said, but many oilier tilings that teacher have done could be enumerated. A speaker who does not believe in "viluperalion'and then refers to "luperanualed school teach er, in so contemptuous a manner, must expect to meet with resentment from most teacher. .
