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

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.

It is a well known fact that carbon
ate of ammonia i used by baker in
the preparation of the finest and most
wholesome bread and cake, and haa
been from time 'immemorial. ' It is

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. .
