for 3000 feet, landing finally at the
bottom of the hill with no bones brok
en, but badly scared and shaken up.
TO OUR CORRESPONDENTS.
We wish the correspondents to the

letter comes from our regular corres
pondent we find It necessary to pick
up the news as best we can from some
other source. But this Is not as sat
isfactory as to receive a letter from a
correspondent we know, and on whose
reliability we can depend.

ANNUAL MEETING
LOCAL CHAUTAUQUA
NEW BOARD OP DIRECTORS CHOS-
, EN WOMEN ARE GIVEN
RECOGNITION.
The Willamette Valley Chautauqua
Assembly held its annual meeting on
Monday, at which time reports were
made by the several officers of the
assembly and the board of directors
for the ensuing year chosen. Vice
president Dye was in the chair.
The report of Secretary Cross as
also that from Treasurer CaufieU
shows the assembly to be In good
shape financially. With all bills paid
the treasury will still contain about
$300, which Is more than a good show
ing when one considers the financial
condition at the end of the session
two years ago.
Since the Inception of the movement
in .this valley the 'assembly has been
working under the constitution and
by-laws of the old Chautauqua organ
ization, but some months ago It was
decided to draft a new constitution
and Messrs. Dye, Cross and Hawley
were made a committee of three to
that end, At the meeting Monday
this committee was Instructed to em
body a rule providing for the election
of thirty vice-presidents, to be chosen
from the several counties and cities
contributory to this Chautauqua. It
was further provided that It will not
be, compulsory for these vice-presidents
to be chosen from stockholders,
but simply that they be friends and
patrons of the movement
The election of the board of direc
tors resulted as follows: 11. E. Cross,
C. H. Dye, W. C. Hawley. J. E. Hed
ges, ,W. A. Huntley. George A. Hard-
Ing, J. T. Apperson, S. G. Reed, A.

A Additon.
The total receipts from all sources
showed $7,699.52, and disbursements
$7.248. S3.- The dining hall showed a
loss of ten or fifteen dollars, the as
sembly not trying to make it a profit
sharing Institution but operating It as
a convenience Instead. , .
The report has much of cheer to
the friends of the movement. It is
recognized that the crucial test to
such an organization comes after the
novelty has worn away, when it is
left in the hands of Its friends, and
the work of the present year seeing
to promise that the friends of the
movement are loyal and with enough
of Interest to Insure great things for
the future.
Principals to Punish.
The board of school directors held
long session Wednesday evening and
adopted rules and regulations for the
government of the city schools. Sev
eral Important changes have been
made. Corporal punishment will here
after be inflicted only by the prlncl-1
pals, in the presence of one or more

o'clock, and the third grade at 3

8CH00L BOARD FILLS ALL VA
CANCIESTHE PORTLAND
BOARD CONSIDERABLE
OF A. PIRATE.
The Portland School Hoard U con
siderable of, a pirate. Notwithstand
ing the fact that It pays more money
for teachers than Is paid In many of
tho smaller cities surrounding It the
board la often up against the proposi
tion of a vacancy, and that In the
middle of the school year. And when
(hose times occur this said board has
no hesitancy In going out and offering
more money to teachers In those small
cities to entice them away, even
when it Is known that the teachers
chosen have contracts covering the
balance of the year In question.
As a result Oregon City has often
been compelled to fill vacancies that
should never have occurred vacan
cies that reflect no credit on the board
who offers the tempting halt or the
teacher who accepts It.
The local board filled Its comple
ment of teachers a few weeks ago
but soon found two vacancies. Miss
Maude Adair Rutherford of Vancouv
er, who was elected last June and as
signed to the fifth grade, has just
discovered she does not wish to
teach tn Oregon City. Miss Jennie
Mae Snedlcor of Medford, who was
Monday night elected teacher of the
ninth grade, had her application In
at several schools and has notified
the local board of a prior election,
which she will accept Wednesday
night the board chose Miss Helen G.
Abbot of Portland as teacher In the
ninth grade and Miss Retta Scoggln
as teacher In the fifth grade at the
Barclay school.
Miss Frances Myers, who has been
teacher In the Eastham school, has
been elected to the Harrison school in
Portland, but so far has not given
notice of acceptance. In case she
does accept Mrs. Harrison of Port
land will be assigned to her work In
the local schools.
It Is perfectly fair for a teacher
without a school to make application
to several, and then accept the first
to elect her of the best one that
so elects her In case her acceptance Is
made within reasonable time. And the
boards all over the state concede this.
But after a teacher has been chosen
to a given position, and after due re
flection accepts It, or after the year's
work has begun. It reflects nothing
to the credit of the teacher who drops
out and starts in elsewhere just be
cause a little more salary Is offered.
And If any school board so chooses
It can stop the" transfer, secure the
abrogation of the teacher's certificate,
and make It Impossible for the teach
er to collect wages for the balance of
the school year.
But with all their troubles the lo
cal board has filled all vacancies and
provided for the prospective one that
may occur any day.

THE COURTS
Railway Asks Right of Way. .
Suit has been filed In tho Circuit
Court against the City of Portland by
the Mount Hood Railway 4 J"ower
Company to condemn a right of way
through the null Run reserve. The
suit was filed locally to secure ser
vice on the city, and the papers were
then serit to the Clackamas District
Court where the case will be tried.
A few months ago rumors to the effect
that the plans of the company would
materially Interfere with the city's
water supply stirred up much public
criticism, on the theory that In de
veloping water power from the Hull
Run River the company would use
much of the water before reserved
for the city's pipe lines.
The company asserts Its chief de-
sire Is to secure a, right of way,, 25.6o ,hat only $05 of this
thuugh the reserve so that the Mount
Hood terminus of Its proposed line
csn be completed. The city officials
are prepared to resist this suit of con
demnation, and a prolonged legal bat
tle Is probable.

Mr. Bryan was recently asked what

"I do not think anyone can say thus
far In advance," he replied. "Much
depends on what Congress does In
tho meantime and what tho conven
tions do. I think the question will
run through all of the Issues whether
the Government shall be administered
on behalf of the people or on behalf of
a few who have been enjoying special
privileges."
