"Pmr 7 PAY IN PDRTLAND LEAST SCHOOLTEACHERS GIVE URES OJf SAIiARIES. FIG- Los Angeles, Oakland and Seattle All More Liberal In Treat ment of Pedagogues. 'Portland's BOO school teachers are the poorest paid of any In cities of this rank on the Pacific Coast. Few cities In America pay as little to the teachers of the public schools as does Portland, the most prosperous city of the Pacific Northwest. The most poorly paid teach er in Oakland, Cal., receives $30 a year more than do some of the Portland teachers who have been teaching- for six years. The highest paid grade teacher in Portland receives only $7 a month more than does the poorest paid teacher in Oakland. In the lower grades Oakland pays her teachers over 41 per cent more than does Portland. The best paid grade teachers in Oakland received over 31 per cent more than do the Portland teachers of the same standing. In Lios Anseles the lowest paid high school teachers receive just 40 per cent more than do the same class of high school teachers in this city, Oakland and ls Angeles both pay their best high school teachers over 36 per cent more salary than does Portland. The lowest paid high school teacher In Oakland receives $ per cent, more pay than does the highest paid high school teacher in Portland; and the lowest paid high school teacher in Los Angeles re ceives over 14 per cent more pay than Portland gives to her best paid high school teacher. In other words, if Port land's best paid high school teachers should go to Los Angeles and start In at the bottom of high school work again and receive the lowest pay in that city their salaries would be Increased over 14 per cent, or $160 per year. Or viewed in another light: The poorest paid high school teacher in Los Angeles would not, on a salary basis, accept the best paid high school position in Port land. The lowest pay for a principal in Oak land Is just double what it is in Portland. The highest pay for principals in each of these two cities is the same; but pay tat principals in Oakland averages just 25 per cent more than it does in Port land. The lowest paid principal in Los Angeles draws 27 Per cent more than the same principal in Portland; and the best paid In Los Angeles draws 7 per cent more than does the best paid In this city. The lowest paid principal In Seattle re ceives just 35 per cent more salary than does the same in Portland. Seattle pays her teachers bf all kinds more than does Portland, with - the single exception of the highest paid principals, who in Seat tle get Just 20 per cent less than the same office pays In Portland. With this single exception, affecting only a very small proportion of the teaching- force, Port land pays less In all lines for teachers than does Oakland, Los Angeles or Seattle. , For heads of departments Seattle pays 25 per cent, more, Oakland 60 per cent more , and Los Angeles 70 per cent more than does Portland. Figured In percentages, Oakland pays her teachers 40 per cent, Lxs Angeles 32 per cent and even Seattle 18 per cent more salary than does Portland, the rich est city of them all. The Portland teachers are asking for a level increase of 20 per cent. Even If this Is granted, Portland will still stand only third compared with Oakland, Los Angeles and Seattle. At present the. rat ing list is: Oakland, Los Angeles, Seattle, Portland. With the 20 per cent Increase the rating would stand: Oakland, Los Angeles. Portland, Seattle. - At present Portland stands at the bottom of the list in all Items except two, exceeds in only one item and equals in but two. With the Increase of 20 per cent, Portland would still be at the bottom In three items, third In three, second In one and highest In one. Her average would be third. To put Portland on an equality with the best in the list, Los Angeles, the increase of 20 per cent that the teachers are asking would have to be Just doubled. The following table, prepared by the local pedagogues, shows the salaries paid in the four cities named as compared with the salaries asked by the Portland teachers: REYNOLDS FEARS VIOLENCE DOES NOT SAITj FOR ALASKA BUT GOES EASTy Jesse Martin, His Cashier, Leaves for Valdez, and Seattle Creditors Fear They Are Outwitted. SEATTLE, Wash., Oct. 20. (Special.) H. D. Reynolds, promoter of a string of Alaska enterprises, which either col lapsed or was endangered by the failure of Reynolds' Bank at Valdes and the abandonment of work on the Alaska Home Railway, did not sail for the North on the steamship Tucatan. Seattle cred itors have the story that at the last mo ment before sailing Reynolds received a tip that he would be in danger of vio lence if he went to Valdes, and he hur ried East Instead. Jesse Martin," cashier of Reynolds' Bank at "Valdez, and Frederick T. Fisher, representing- Seattle creditors, were to have gone north with Reynolds. Martin did not make the. trip, but when Fisher learned Reynolds would not go he stayed in Seattle and a hurried meeting of local creditors will be held tomorrow to. decide upon an Instantaneous plan of action. The proposal was made by Reynolds to local creditors that a trustee be named for all his Alaska creditors at Valdes until he has a chance to pull out his properties. This was declined. It is now feared that with Martin on the ground as Reynolds' representative, such action will be taken and Seattle creditors will lose something between $65,000 and $100,000.

It is reported Reynolds owes a quarter of a million in-Valdez. Ex-Governor John G. ' Brady, who also failed to go north yesterday, says he has been ruined by being Involved in Reynolds' schemes. He says he had im plicit confidence in the promoter and In vested heavily with him. It was Brady's connection with the Reynolds Alaska De velopment Company that led to a demand for his resignation. Coos Bay Advertising Well. MARSHFIELD, Or., Oct 20.-(Special.) Walron Lyons, secretary of the Marsh field Chamber of Commerce, has been sent from Coos Bay on a trip to advertise this locality.

No housewife with any sense of cleanliness or daintiness could offer her family Beef Trust meat, even were it a free gift. You see it carted around the streets without protection or covering, and in the markets it is exposed to all the dust, dirt, contaminated atmos phere and insects of the neighborhood. Add to this the fact that the meat has been shipped miles in ice-cars and served its sentence in the cold-storage rooms of the Beef Trust, where it grew sticky, soft and sloppy who could eat it? , Notice that Smith's meats are absolutely fresh and are always kept behind glass until YOU select them.
