TOTS FOR PROGRESS.
Tomorrow (Saturday) at 1 o'clock
the polls will be open for ft vote on the
school bond question. Said polls will
close at 4. o'clock, during which time
all qualified persons will have an op
portunity to register their good will
toward better school facilities in St.
Helena. The following qualification
for voter at school meetings is handed
down by the state superintendent,
taken front an opinion reudersd by the
attorney general :
"I have been in conference with the at
torney general, and ha haa riven nie his
opinion on U same. Therefor I state to
yon bis opinion, which I accept as the law
coveraing the case.
'A legal voter is a person who is 21 yean
of age, a proper citizen of the United States
and the state of Oregon, and has resided in
th state a sufficient length of time to be
an elector, and has resided in th district
90 day immediately preceding the said
school election, and has property in the
district upon which he or sh pays a tax
"A bnsband and wife to be entitled to
voWander this interpretation of the law
mast have property in their own ludividual
names and on which they pay a tax in their
own name severally. This applies to dis
tricts of 1000 inhabitants and upward.
"In districts of less than 1000 inhabitants
this same qualification entitle a person to
yot. and the privilege ba been extended
to parent of children of school age, and
th attorney general give it a bis opinion
that any parent of children of school are.
whether father or mother, or both, have a
right and are eu titled to vote at a school
meetings, although they have no property
on which they pay a tax.
"Taking this opinion as a foundation and
desiring to be specific, I will state in specific
details the following:
"First An elector at a school meeting
XBUsl be 21 years of age.
"Second A citizen of the United State.
Third Must hare resided to th slate
six months preceding.
"Fourth Mast have resided In the dis
trict SO days immediately proceeding the
election.
'Fifth Must have property upon which
h or sh pays a tax. ,
. "Sixth In cas they have no property,
then in the districts of less than 1000 Inhab
itant an elector must be the parent of
Children of school age and it includes both
father and mother of said children.
"I believe this is a clear statement of the
law a may be necessary for yon to com
prehend the same. 6. M. Iawur,
"Sap. Public Instruction."
The qualifications of voters as set
forth in the foregoing by the state su
perintendent and attorney general
seems to be clear and easily nnder
Stood, so that the judges of election
seed have no difficulty in interpreting
the law. It will be noticed that the
qualifications for districts of less than
1000 inhabitants, where a man or
woman, or both, who pay a tax in their
own name, or where either or both
have children to educate, can vote.
The qnestion to be decided tomor
row is of vital importance to every
man, woman and child in this school
district, for upon an affirmative vote
depends largely the prosperity of the
community,' and especially the possi
bility of higher education. The suc
cessful termination of this election will
mean a great deal to St. Helens in the
future.
Thomas Coofrb, who bandies the
Northern Pacific land business at this
end of the line, is a very busy man
these days, says the West Coast Lum
berman. He reports business in his
department brisk with very encour
aging indications for the return of
prosperity on the coast While open
ing his ordinary pile of mail the other
day, be remarked t "The mail we get
is a good index of the business eondi
lions, particularly in this state. There
Ss a noticeable difference from a year
ago. Then the farmer east of the
mountains were indifferent as to
whether they retained their lands or
aot; this year they are anxious to se
care extensions and manifest a hope
ful feeling. With the present pros
pects for crops there is no doubt that
Easier Washington will come out
this year in good shape." Speaking
of the call for timber lands he reports
considerable activity in this line and
the sale of 4,000 acres in Mason eoun
ty within a few weeks, one-half of this
amount to Sol G. Simpson, the logging
king of this section, and the balance
to the Kneeland firm and the Mason
County legging Co. Mr. Simpson is
turning out 10,000,000 feet of logs
month. Six gangs of land cruisers
were sent out the first of March to
cruise the company lands.
Not many men are left in public life
of those who were in either branch of
Congress when the late Daniel W.
Voorhees entered the House in 1861
Galusba A. Grow was Speaker of the
House in which Voorhees began his
congressional career. William S. Hol-
man, who like trrow, ia a member of
the present House, wa in that body
at thai time. Bo waa Justin 8. Mor
rill, who haa served for th put thirty
year in the Senate, while John Sher
man, who haa jut gone to the head of
the State Department, wae in the Sen
ale then. John B, Henderson, of
Missouri, was appointed to the Senate
of the Congress in which Voorhees'
service began. A. few member of the
Congress of 1861 are living in retire
ment, among them being George V.
Julitin of Indiana, Albert G. Riddlo
and John A. Birjgham of Ohio, and
Henry L. Dawea of Massachusetts.
The great body of the men composing
the first war Congress, tbongh, depart
ed long before Voorhees.
While business prospect do not
look so bright as one would desire and
demand for labor has not yet greatly
increased, the fact must not be over
looked that the labor commiraioner of
Pennsylvania report 100,000 more
men employed in that stats at present
than were employed lust fall. The
same condition, to greater or lees de
gre, may reasonably be expected in
other state, and if the facts were
known, here in Oregon, there is n.i
doubt that a greater degree of activity
prevail than for many month. Indeed
there has been a noticeable advance in
the price of all commodities, and this
could not well be without an improve
mentin labor conditions. It taker
time to resuscitate business interests
which have been almost entirely de
strayed.
It is evident that cedar shingles
must advance without any concerted
action, as the demand exceeds the sup
ply. A few big manufacturers and
shippers got together in Seattle on the
8th irist., and agreed to raise the price
five cents from their present quotation.
They will immediately iisue instruc
tions to their traveling men to sell
Stars at one dollar and five cents, and
Clears at one twenty. Their next lists
will be issued on those figures. With
a rood strong spring trade another
raise will have to be made.

hurry. Hatlesa and ooatleas himself and

The services were of a missionary character
and the pastor took up the annual mission

One of Lindgren' horses took sick Mon
day afternoon and the number of persons
that prescribed for tbat hors with the dif
ferent remedies each declared that the horse
needed, so confused Charley tbat he did
not knew what to do. He feared the
horse' stomach could not hold them all
and th drug store could not supply them
He did occasionally dose him as the horse
U a useful one and seemed quite sick, but
h did not try all tbe remedies proposed,
and for that reason, probably, the hors is
living and improving at last account.
David McDonald, while working at El
liott's camp, received an injury that came
nearly proving fatal. He was engsged on
the side of a bill and was ran ever by two
logs that started nnexpectedly from a short
distance above bim. It was thought at
first be was killed, bnt inequalities of tbe
ground's surface saved bim from getting
the fall weight of the logs and bis injuries.
while severe, are not considered dangerous
Dave is well known about here and every
body, while sympathising with him, feel
like congratulating him that be got off as
well as he did.
. Our Beaver friends held a district school
meeting last Friday and report sars tbey
were "not very much agreed among them
selves." Some new school desks in the
school building that a majority seem will
ing to use bnt not willing to pay for by a
tax, seems to have cansed a little difference
of opinion. It is quite likely that the good
people over there will find out that they
cannot use school desks and not pay for
them unless someone else is willing to do
the paying. Further developments here
after. .
