Conference Representing Val
ley Cities Called.
FAIR PLAY FOR ALL IS AIM
School Authorities to Meet in AI
bany Friday to Work Out
Schedule II Possible.
A LEANT, Or., March 20. (Special.)
School superintendents and members
of school boards of the larger cities
end towns of the Willamette valley
have been invited by the Albany
school board to meet here next Fri
day afternoon for the purpose of
agreeing so far as possible upon a
schedule of teachers' salaries for the
turning year and considering other
matters of interest to the schools.
The invitation has been accepted
already by the school boards of Sa
l"m, Eugene, Corvallis, Roseburg and
McMmnville, and Is being- extended
also to the schools of Dallas, Silver
ton. Lebanon, Woodburn, Cottage
Ur.ove, pringfield and Newberg.
Trouble last year in many places
over teachers salaries led to the con
fercnee call. At a meeting of the
Albany board this week Alfred C.
Si'ftmitt and E. F. Wiles, members
or the board, were named as a com
mittee to see what could be done
and decided to call this conference.
They invited the boards of the five
cities first named above and the idea
was received so heartily that the
scope of the gathering has been ex
tended. It will be the first meeting
of the kind held in Oregon.
The call for the meeting recites that
there has been a tendency on the part
of larger centers to draw the better
teachers from the smaller localities,
and that when one city pays higher
salaries than others teachers in the
latter cities feel that they are not re
ceiving a square deal. The plan is
to .try to equalize salaries and create
a better fading.
The invitation says there has been
dissatisfaction and disturbance among
teachers and that while board mem
bers want to be fair in determining
salaries the interest of patrons and
taxpayers must be consulted, too. The
aim of the conference is to achieve
fair play for all concerned. The con
ference will be held in the directors'
room of the Albany, library at.
o'clock next Friday afternoon.

off with the interscholastic debate
championship of the west-side district
of Oregon by winning unanimous de
cisions in the dual debate with Tilla
mook Friday.
Robert Kerr and Blair Stewart took
the negative side on the home plat
form, while Horace Dryden and Mau
rice Buxton represented Corvallis at
Tillamook.
Up to this time the "cheese" county
debaters had lost but one Judge's de
cision and had nearly as good a record
at Corvallis.
The question was the same as that
debated in the preliminar- contests
last month in which Corvallis also
won two unanimous decisions: "Resolved,-That
the uso of the injunction
in labor disputes should be prohibited
by federal law."
By winning the district ' champion
ship Corvallis is entitled to take part
in the valley championship debates to
be held at the University of Oregon
some time in May.

both the state and county contribu
tion to the common school fund would
be - increased from $10 each census
child to $-0. The tentative pgramme
agreed upon by the appropriation
committee which was in session here
from Monday until Friday, includes
provision for legislation at the spe
cial Region increasing this allowance
to J10 from the county and. $15 for the
state. This compromise is declared
unsatisfactory to the school forces
. who point out that under such ar
rangement the increase would only
give the educational department
$1,750,000, whereas it Is estimated
..$6,000,000 additional is needed. The
agreement to take up the matter for
, consideration and to grant any in
crease is construed by the teachers
as an opening wedge and they declare
their purpose to press their advantage
and failing to secure a just recogni
tion of their demands to invoke the
initiative. The school forces are de
termined but as yet unorganized and
apparently are suffering from lack
of political leadership.
'The teachers lay stress on the fact
.that, as they declare, the Issue in
" veived is fundamentally the one of pro
jecting the common school system of
the state from complete collapse rath
er than the incidental one involving
increased pay for the teachers, citing
that at the present time the teachers
could secure more remunerative em
ployment in other lines and hence it
ih not a personal matter with them.
Opponents Are Buay.
With the educational conference in
session at the high school auditorium,
opponents of legislation to provide
for the schools at the special session
have had an opportunity to confer
with the new members arriving and
. have not overlooked the advantage to
"be gained by presentation of their ar
gument In advance of the teachers.
The republican caucus has not been
called officially but it has been sug
" treated that deliberations begin early
in the afternoon in view of prospects
for a long drawn out session.

LEGISIvATFRE OPENS MONDAY
Special Session in Washington Is
First in 30 Years.
OLYMPIA, Wash., March 20. Wash
ington's legislature meets here Mon
day noon in a special session, the
third special session in 30 years of
statehood.
Governor L. F. Hart's message will
be read to the legislature soon after
the law makers are called to order.
The message, it was thought torfight.
would urge ratification of the suf
frage amendment, favor a bonus for
returned service-men and ask for
financial relief for the schools of the
state.
Members of the legislature, it is
thought, will follow Governor Hart's
suggestions. The governor has held
several conferences this- week with
members of the joint appropriations
committee and a tentative programme
was drawn up. There is little chance
that the session will be long and it
appears that the number of new bills
will be held to a minimum.
Increase of tlje general fund tax
levy limit from three to five mills
probably will be voted by the legislature.-
The state bureau of super
vision and inspection of public of
fices has announced that such an in
crease is unavoidable for th'e state is
facing a heavy deficiency at the close
of the present biennium and many
schools and departments cannot func
tion longer unless immediate steps
are made to get money for them.
The officers of the last legislature,
Dr. P. H. Carlyon, president of the
senate, and Fred A. Adams, speaker
of the house, will call the two bodies
to order. Dr. Carlyon has been here
all week and Speaker Adams arrived
at noon today from Spokane.

exodus to the north, and every boat
is carrying its quota of miners,

season.
The exodus has been under way
since March 1, but the real movement
is just commencing and by May 1,
according to the knowing ones, every
one who expects to make anything of

way.
Silver Strike Attracts.
There is no evidence just now of
any rush to the gold and silver fields,
Dut among, those who have been with
the sourdoughs for the last 10 or 12
years there's plenty of evidence of
keenest interest in the tales of the
silver strike in the Tukon territory, on
the Stewart .river and in the develop
ment of old Forty-Mile district. Proj
ects being developed by eastern cap
ital are taking north many who seek
merely to put in the summer working
for pay, but it is the conseusus of
opinion among the old-timers that
the day is past when the prospector
may head into the interior, etake out
a claim and make money at it.
Freight is still too high.
George Barrett, one of the real old-
timers, got his key from the room
clerk early in the afternoon today
and started for his room. At 4:30
he had progressed no farther than
the elevator and was stalled there
talking it all over again with J. M.
Price, who for more than 20 years
has been mining and freighting

Mr. Barrett is said to have sold one
of his properties for $300,000 last fall

Frocks and Affair Will Be
Free to Card Holders.
Portland women will have an op
portunity to view a fashion show in
Portland, staged along the same lines
as similar shows in San Francisco,
New York and other cities where
large admission prices prevail. In
Portland, however, the show will be
staged by Lipman, Wolfe & Co. and
the general public will be invited to
attend without paying an admission
fee.
The show will be held In the public
auditorium Monday night, March 29.
The same model garments and hats
which were displayed in the magnifi
cent fashion show recently staged at
the Hotel Astor in New York city will
be shown. Because of this acquisition
the Portland show will be almost a
duplicate of that of New York, which
was attended by the leading society
ioik or Mannattan, and which was
heralded as one of the greatest so
ciety events in the history of Greater
New York. r
Arrangements have been made for
special lighting effects and soft
music.
The show will hold interest for
women because of the display of ex
quisite fashions, but the male popu
lation will also find much in the show
to attract attention, for every bit of
fashion offered will be displayed on
the persons of beautiful models, es
pecially selected for this affair. The
Identity of the models is to remain
a mystery until divulged on the night
of the promenade.
Admission to the show will be by

cost on application at the booth on

STATES STORMAN
Gained Twenty Pounds and
Feels Full of New Energy
Since Taking Tanlac
t hav ntneri twenty pounds in
weight in little more than a month's
time and I am reeling as hub aa
ever did in my life, and Tanlac is the
cause of It all," was the statement
made recently by A. Storman, 1309
South Fifteenth street. Tacoma, W ash.,
a popular conductor on the Taeoma
Street Railway Co.
"For several years I have been both
ered with rheumatism in my shoul
ders and right arm, and nry joints
ached so bad I could hardly do my
work. In cold weather I was in almost
constant pain and it was impossible
for me to sleep to do any good. Then,
several months ago, due to overwork
and to my badly run-down condition,
my health just seemed to break down
all at once. I lost my appetite, my
stomach went back on me and I began
to lose in weight rapidly. I couldn't
touch a bite for breakfast and I could
hardly retain anything I ate at other
meals. I suffered with terrible cramps
in my stomach and I would bloat up
with rn until I felt miserable. It was
a job for me to get around and I got
so weak I felt 'all in' all the time.
"When I saw what laniac was ao
ing for so many motormen and con
ductors I decided to give it a iriai.
Four bottles of Tanlac are all i nave
taken, and today 1 have Deen tram up
more than I ever thought was possi
ble. There is not a trace of rheuma- i
tism in my system that I can tell and I
I have free use of my arms ana snoui
dera once more. My stomach was
never in better shape than it is right
now and I can eat anything on the
table without any trouble at all. I
sleep like a log at night and every
morning after a hearty breakfast I
am ready for work and I 'can work
twice as good now as I could before.
There's no getting around it. Tanlac
can't be beat, and I am glad to tell
others what I have found out about
this medicine."
