Practically All Tachers la the Public
Schools Are Young Women.
'Of the forty-one applicants for
teacher's coartificates at the examina
tion held this week by Supt. Zinser,
only three are males. In Portland
of 127 applicants only nine are males.
The young men of this county are
becoming thoroughly aroused to the
fact that there is but little show for
them in the battle of life, and have
under ednideration the organization
of a "Men's Club." It is next to im
possible for men to compete BuccesS'
fully with the fairer and bettre half
of the human race for such occupa
tions as teaching, typewriting, sten
ograpliy, etc. The customs of the
country ' seem to debar them, to a
great extent, from participating in
such work.
It will be one of the objects of the
Club to agitate the subject of "men's
rights" and attempt the securing to
them the oportunity of entering voca
tions now practically closed to males.
Our sympathies should go out toward
the down trodden sex, and they should

securing the rights that are withheld.

HOT SOUP FOR LABORERS.
The W. P. & P. Co. Serves, Free, a Plate
of Soup to Laborers On New Mill
Soup is being served free to the men
who are working on the new mill
that is being built by the Willamette
Pulp & Paper Comany. This innova
tion was brought about by the com
plaints of the men that the boarding
houses of Oregon City did not furnish
them with suitable lunch. Some of
the moiijquit work for this reason and
after investigating the matter the of
ficials of the company saw that? the
condition had not been exagerated by
the men and it was only too true that
some of the lunches were "fierce;"
so they decided to give the men a good
dish of soup free. Isaac Pursifull,
who was tho efficient cook for Com
pany I, in the Philippines, was placed
in charge of the soup kitchen with
the result that the men are getting a
plate of soup that is worth walking a
mile for. The men heartily appre
ciate what the company is doing for
them and show it by good work.

M. J. Jones was brought before Major
Dimick on Monday sod charged with
being drank and disorderly. Ee wai
fined (10 which be paid. He if reported
to have started in to caive things with
his knife but wu stopped by the police
before any damage waa done.
Some knowing ones of our count? have
been ridiculing the idea of the existence
of any valuable ore in the mines on the
Molalla and Ogle Creek, although the
same persons nave never visited the
mines, yet development .work goes
steadily on, and the owners are invest
ing considerable money. If the mines
were worthless, it is hardly probable
that some of our best business men
would be anxious to throw away money
on them.
The opinion be'd of the mineral rich
ness of that part of our county by hoie
interested, ia confirmed by J. 8. Windell,
a mining ea pert for the National Mining
and Development Company, who re
cently visited the properties. After in
specting the claims, Mr. Windell states
that the veins all line in a well miner
alized belt.
