THE ST. JOHNS REVIEW A. W. Morlcle, Uilllor PubHslied Friday of Each Weak r., f-ur. tnjV-jr "f i:T-x-.- Subiorlptton prto $1.60 par year. Tint RKvmw Is entered nt post office In Portland, Oregon, ns uinil tnntlcr of the second class under the Act of Con gress of Mutch 3, 1879. at Every knock is a boost, it is said, and election returns often seem to verify the saying. Owinjr to the Review proint? to nress so much earlier this week local news matter is somewhat 1 curtailed. Men frequently make promises tlmt more mature judgment or urealer consideration impel them to retract. Mistakes are the common lot of the human family. But what often seems mistakes to some peoplo appear just the reverse to others. Una must nave the in side facts to justly judge. The return of capital punish ment ib ono of the measures bo voted UDon today, Friday Why such a step backward, wine the passage of this measure would mean, should bo taken is difficult to understand. In the spelling contest North school tlio three success ful spoilers were Andrew Hasoy Otillia Kutzkey and Clyclo Mon tnea. Thcso met at James John High with eighteen others from the 8th grades on the Peninsula. After spoiling the allotted time Oitillia Kutzkoy and Clyde Mon tago were numbered among the successful five who had not missed n word. Thcso will moot with others for tho final tryout at tho Auditorium at 8 p. m on May 28. Voter of tho I'oninsulu, if you want to nominate a man for County Commissioner who familiar with our territory, wit our surroundings, with our wants and requirements, vote for A. A. Muck. Ho known, and ho other candidate is so well in formed. He has done much for tho Peninsula, and will do muc more it elected. Why make a change at this time? It was largely through his efforts that tho Greeley street project wsa made possible. Tho Peninsula is surely entitled to reprosonta tion in the Commisisoncr's of ice. And Mr. Muck has tin doubtedly been a good man for this section, and if reflected is needless to state that ho wil continue such. Why taku chanco and voto for some other candidate not so greatly interes ted in tho Peninsula's welfare! It is a good time 10 show an proclntion of tho good work Mr. Muck has accomplished. W. C. Aldorson, formerly principal of the St. Johns schools. a charter member of Doric Lodge and a tast chancellor of Iiolmen Lodge, is a candidate to succeed himself as County Supcrinton dent. In spunking of Mr. Aid erson tho uregon voter says: W. U. Aidcrson, Portland; grad unto of Willamotto Univuraity. a Ann . I a iBtw; aorvou Hueci'HHvoiy as principal of Kaimow, Clint in, Kelly, Sellwood, Peninsula and Holman schools in Portland; city superintendent of St. Johns schools, rjuo.UHz: then cIiohimi as principal of Lincoln High school in Portland and served tintil elected county school super intondent in P.) Hi; president of Oregon Stato Teachers' Ass'n; Oregon director National Teach ers' Ass'n; had been active hi oudoavor to socuro adoption of county unit plan for school din trict consolidation; has mado an excellent record; stands high n an educator and an official ami is entitled to ro-oloction. Interested patrons, ontliuni astic children and onrnostsponk en madu up a crowd that as sombled at Central School Mon. day night at oight o'clock. The hall was attractively decorated with flowers and Japnneso lan terns. Tho program was inter pursed with Bongs, drills, dia logues and duets. Mr. Charles Diamond of the G. F. Johnson Piano Company and of the Dia mond Orchestra lent interest by his playing and cheerful respon ses to encores. The children showed careful training and ability. Splendid arguments were presented by the speakers to the parents as tho ones most vitally interested in tho educa tion bills, 310 and 3M, for the support of tho millago tax. It might further bo said that the money obtained for Portland is spent hero and that tli9 teachers are not asking an increase of salary but that tho salaries do not return to a prewar basis.
