LARGE COUNTY, POORLY PAID
Thinks Petition Circulators Did Not
Make Mailer Plain to Voters
Clackamas County know what is right
and will do it.
Those who circulated the petition to
refer the bill did not state to the
people that the provision of the bill
that the Superintendent should be re
quired to spend at least four days of
each week from September to June in
clusive -in the supervision of rural
schools makes it necessary that the
office be provided . with competent
help. I cannot stay away from the of
fice that much of the time and leave
it with one who is not competent.
They did not state that there would
be one loss supervisor employed thus
making an actual saving to the County
of several hundred dollars. Some ar
gue that the Supervisory Law will be
repealed. If it should be there will be
greater need for the Superintendent
to be out in the field and therefore
greater necessity for the office help.
I do not bolieve that you understand
the full merits of the measure or you
would not lend your power to defeat it. i

Editor Courier:
In your issue of October lb you
say that it is very probable that the
voters of the county will vote No
on the salary bill of the County School
Superintendent that was passed by
the last legislature, giving as your
reason that the present incumbent
did not announce during the campaign
that he would ask for an increase in
salary. I wish to plead' guilty to the
charge. It is so evident that the sal
ary should be increased that I thought
no patriotic citizen of the County
would question it. Clackamas County
is fourth in the number of children
and fifth in the number of teachers,
but is twenty-fifth in the salary that
it pays its County Superintendent, vices, and will give selections in front
There are twenty-nine teachers in the of the theatre after the parade
county who are drawing a greater Not only will there be good features
this worthy cause. There will be three
performances, the first of which will
ommence at 0 o clock and there will
be a continuous performance during
he evening. At 8 o clock the members
of the Moose Lodge will parade on
Main Street and will be headed by
the G. A. R. drum corps. The old sol-
ers have kindly donated their ser-
monthly salary than the County
School Superintendent. There are
twenty-nine teachers in the county
who are drawing a greater monthly
salary than the County School Super
intendent, whose position is supposed
to Ue or greatest importance. Oregon
ouy pays its superintendent Siuuu a
year.
Did any of your readers ever hear
of a candidate for office who made
it one of the arguments why he should
oe elected that he would ask for an
increase in salary? I went to the Leg
islature tor the increase because the
law says that that is one of its pow
ers. It is also customary. If I am not
mistaken there were others whose
salaries were raised at the same time,
Why do you single me out as an ex
ample
It may be of interest to the public
to know something of the history of
the bill. At the annual institlte held
it the showliouse, but there will be
specialties including a duet by Miss
Anna Snyder and Frank Alldredge,
with violin obligato by Prof. Flecht
ncr; quartette by R. E. Woodward,
Roy Woodward, Joseph Alldredge and
Hugh Kennedy; solo Harry Confer.
Other specialties will be introduced
during the evening.
All should purchase tickets and
help the good cause along. The price

bmce the organization of the
Moose Lodge in Oregon City the mem
bers of the organization have been
liberal in their donations to the needy
and worthy people of Oregon City,
whether members of the Order or not.
Their policy is to be proud of. There
are 300 members belonging to the lo
cal order, and you will always find

The order has a beautiful new struc
ture at Fox River, Illinois, which wasj
recently dedicated. The Building is
known as "Moose Heart Home" and
is a home for the widows and orphans
of members of the lodge. The orphans
are educated and taught a trade, and
allowed to remain until 18 years of
age. 1 tie widows are given a perma
nent home. Beatiful grounds surround
"Moose Heart Home," making it an
ideal retuge lor this kind.

was . a teacher in attendance, asked
the teachers in the advance divisions
to make suggestions to guide him in
nis actions as a law-maker. After
several had been given, he asked:
'What about the Superintendent's
salary?" Instantly three men were
upon their feet, the one who secured
recognition said, "If you wish to
know what I think I will say thut I
think it is a disgrace to Clackamas
County." Mr. Gill then said that the
salary was not what it should be but
did not further commit himself. The
man who first spoke said that the
salary should in hia opinion, be not
less than $1000. The next day when
the committee on resolutions reported
it offered a resolution asking the Leg
islature to fix the salary at not less
man iovv. mis resolution passed by
an unanimous vote. Mr. Gill afterward
