The health of the school district continues good, better than during dry, hot weather. We are glad to learn by the Courier Herald that the Clackamas Development Co., is going to start a "sow" mill. We will take a pair of Berkshires, as soon as they can be turned out. , The Barlow school district did themselves proud last Saturday after noon and evening, nothwithstandlng the inclemency "of the weather. They turned out well to the school child ren's rummage Bale in the afternoon, and dead horse or express package sale in the evening. The teacher's efforts were untiring to make it a success and she succeded in her un dertaking to a remarkable degree. The sale amounted to $30.72 net. $25.77 was turned over to the school board by Miss Barlow to be used In improving the school grounds, paint ing school house, etc. Other schools may do as well if they have hustling teachers like we have, and that was not all. A committee of ladies of the town, consisting of Mrs. R. E. Irwin. Misses Veva Tull and Bessie Shepard thought the school ought to have an organ. They went to work to raise the money by subscription, balls, parties, etc. The result was they purchased, paid for and delivered in the school house a handsome Kimball organ, costing $40. A set of resolutions thanking Mrs. Irwin for her persistent work and success in the good cause was read and adopted, for we must not forget that music and cultivation of musical talent is a part of the child's education and refinement. Miss Bar low played the organ while the chil dren sang a few patriotic songs that started the dormant patrioic fire in Grandpa Barlow's soul so strong, that it blazed forth in that old inspiring song, Hail Columbia, which was ap preciated and applauded by all. An other interesting feature of the en tertainment was the musical bird like whistling accompaniment to the violin played by Bud Tull,i,by a young Mr. Nelson, a recent arrival from North Dakota. The ladies on the organ committee made no charges for their long per sistent efforts, but we all feel duly thankful. We have written this rather lengthy report that our Clackamas County neighbors may know that the people of Barlow school district are striving onward and upward toward the goal of a higher and grander civ- ilization, which will never be ob tained by war and prize fights. We are getting perfectly disgusted with war news and pictures of prize fights and prizefighters, murder, robbery, and rapine all over the world in the great dailies. It is demoralizing the young men and minds of our country. Even football is becoming almost as brutal as prize fights. They now play it for high stakes. Give the children music and musi cal entertainments, with an occa sional well-conducted dance, which is nothing more than the vibration of music acting on the nerves, which is enjoyable and healthful, if not in dulged in to excess. With thanks to W.t of Meadowbrook, for the compli ment of which we are hardly deserv ing we remain, hoping for promotion soon, CORPORAL. P. S. About two months ago D. O.

The Supreme Court Decides Philippine Island Case and One for Porto Rico. Washington, Dec. 4. Opinions in the United States today in the liiBt two test cases. One of were rendered supreme court of the insular' them was that known as the "four teen diamond rings case, " involving the relationship of the United States to the Philippine Islands from a tariff point of view, and the other was that known as the Dooley case No. 2, involving the constitutional ity of the collection of duty on goods shipped from New York to Porto Rico. In the former case, the court, through Chief Justice Fuller, held that the diamond rings brought in from the Philippines, and over which the case arose, should have been ex empt from duty under the Paris treaty of peace, as that treaty made the Philippines American territory. The decision in the Philippine case followed closely that of the first Porto Rican case in the last term. In the Dooley case, . decided today, it was held that the duty collected on goods carried from New York to Porto Rico was permissible, but that it was in reality a tax for the benefit of the Porto Ricans themselves, rather than an export duty. The "fourteen diamond rings" case settles only the question of duty on goods coming from the Philippines into the United States, and admits everything free. Under the previous decisions last spring, and under the decision of the second Dooley case to day, congress has the power to. legis late a duty on goods going both ways. No decision has yet been made as to the authority of this government, through the military governor or the Philippine commission, to levy duty on goods going from this country into the Philippines, A test- case has been brought in the lower court, but before it can be decided there will no doubt be legislation ' under and in accordance with the decision in the second Dooley case, which will place a tariff, probably such as the Philip pine commission has just adopted, on all imports to the Philippines, .whether from the United States or elsewhere. Some discrimination might bo made in favor of this coun try's products, but Spain would have the same rights under the Paris treaty, and other nations would de mand equal rights with Spain under the most favored nation ' clauses, in their treaties. The Switchmen's Strike. Pittsburg, Pa., Dec. 6. There was a continued improvement in the switch men's strike situation today.
