rertaining to Clackamas County
School Matters.
County Superintendent Zinser, as
sisted by Professor Gary and R. S. Mc
Laughlin, the other members of the
county board of examiners, is holding
the regular mid-winter examination of
applicants for teachers' certificates.
Thirty-three are taking the examination
for county papers and three for state i
certificates. The examination begun 1
Mouday. I
Thirty-eight districts In Clackamas'
county have pupils taking the eighth I
grade examination, and there are more
to follow. The examination papers are
passed upon by the county superintend
ent, before certificates are issued.
The Oregon City Normal College, un
der the direction of Professor V. H.
Davis and wife, is becoming an impor-l
tatit educatsonal factor in the city. '.
The number of students is increasing at 1
an encouraging rate, and the future out- i
look for the school is encouraging. The '
teachers and students of the school have
organized a literary society, styled the
"Oregon City Normal Coilege Students
Association. At the first mealing htld
last Friday night, Howard Browne!!;
gave the address of the evening.
Superintendent Zinijer's School Bul
letin to be issued this week, contains
the following: The present school year
began March 1st, 1901, and will end
June 16th, 1902. All officers are to
serve tiil their successors are elected or
qualified, and all reports will cover this
period, unless otherwise directed.
County Rock Cruslier and JVtw
Committee on Streets.
At the meetiug of the city council
last week the cojimittee on streets and
public property were authorized to se
cure the county rock crusher to grind
up a lot of ruck to be used on the city
Blreets. It is intended to grind un
enough rock to last for some time, and
when the big machine is ready for oper
ation for the municipality, it will prob
ably begin work on Ninth street. The
county rock crusher caonot be secured
at present, as it haB leased to parties at
i luount Angel lor a brief period, and
undergoing repairs at Story's black
smith shop prepatory to removal.
Frank Glernion will have charge of the
rock crusher at Mount Angel.
The new city council committee on
streets and public property is William
hheahan, chairman J E. F. Story and
E. W. Scott The personell of the
new street committee is satisfactory and
a good selection, but it is a peculiar fact
that the mayor -did not an
nounce tins committee aiong with other
new committees at the last u eeting of
the council. The Courier-Herald is the
only paper that sends a reporter to the
council meetings, and when the mayor
was asked for a correct list of the new
committees, he was referred to the re
corders list lying on the table, which
tabbed with tb committees announced.
No street committee was on the list.
However, it it likely that the the mayor
overlooked the matter of announcing
this committee, as is learned that the
appointment was made several days
previous between the regular January
and February council meetings. But
how is the recorder to make a record of
the transactions, when a committee is
not announced at a regular council
meeting?
Bridge and Mood Improvements.
The board of county commissioners
adjourned the regular February term
from last Saturday until Wednesday.
The greater part of the time was taken

couple of previous postponements, and

ter have the privilege of being taxed for
street and sidewalk improvements.

A. H. Borland, et at, for a county road
was granted, and James Cook and Al
bert Bullock, of Oswego, and Robert
Biehle, of Stafford, . were appointed
viewers of the proposed new thorough
fare. The petition of William X. Davis,
et al, for a county road was denied.
In the matter of the petition of E. E.
Judd, et al, for the improvement of the
Schatzman hillroad, it was ordered
that a survey he made, and the work of
repairing said thoroughfare be pair! out
of the road fund. The petition of II. H.
Smidt, et al, for a county road was
granted, and Cornelius Bair, William
Thompson and Eugene Mitts were ap
