SCHOOL EXERCISES
FRIDAY EVE AT
COURT HOUSE
President Campbell, of Monmouth
Normal, and Presideut Chap
man, of Eugene, Were Present
and Made Addresses on Educa
tion Large Attendance.
On last Friday evening at the
Court House the citizens of Hills
boro and vicinity were agreeably
surprised in witnessing one of the
most interesting meetings held in
Hillsboro for some time.
The meeting was instituted by
and under the supervision of the
Hillsboro public school. It was
the first of a series of public meet
ings to be given once each month
during the term of the school
should the first prove successful.
Hon. S. B. Huston, as one of the
directors of the school, presided.
After having called the meeling to
order, he stated that the object of
the?e meetings were intended to be
instructive and educational and to
promote an active interest in the
efficiency of our public school; that
the presence of so large an audi
ence left no doubt in his mind of
the future success of the meetings,
and they could not longer be con
sidered an ' experiment.''
After the rendition of a vocal so
lo by Miss Grace Poe the chairman
in a few brief words introduced the
first speaker of the evening, Pres
Campbell, of the state normal
school at Monmouth, who, in a
short address forcibly portrayed
the necessity of an education in this
world of strife and competition ;and
closed with an eloquent appeal for
concentrated effort in the better
ment of ou'cqmmon school train
ing. The Glee Club, under the direc
tion of Prof. Werschkull, then ren
dered a selection which was enthu
siastically applauded, after which
the chairman introduced as the
next speaker Pres. Chapman of the
State University.
Pres. Chapman, in a pleasant,
methodical and deliberate manner
outlined the duly of parents to
ward their children from an educu
tionul standpoint; not forgetting,
however, to endeavor to instill into
the minds of young students the
importance of their own responsi
bility in acquiring the necessary
education to fit themselves for the
struggle for existence, even thougn
it must be acquired by their owh
individval effort.
After the singing of another se
lection by the Glee Club, Rev.Cline
requested permission to ask the
uelion, "What are our boys to do
que
who graduate from our common
schools, which have no advance
course, while they are yet too young
to work, too young to be trusted
away from home and yet not qual-
fied to enter college? He suggest
ed that boys in this condition were
being "educated to hoodlumism."
Pres. Chapman, in answer to the
question, enumerated a dozen or
more towns m Oregon some not
as large as Hillsboro where they
were maintaining a four year aca
demical course in the common
school, enabling the graduates of
these schools to enter college; obvi
ating the necessity of sending boys
and girls away from home to pre
pare for a collegiate course. He de
plored the abandonment even of
the two year advanced course which
the Hillsboro school maintained for
several years, and hoped that the
time was not far distant when the
Hillsboro school would again insti
tute the advanced course. ,
It would seem that our public
svhool is going bacdward instead of
forward, and while there are some
mitigating conditions that tend to
excuse our attitude toward the pub
lie school in disfranchising our boys
and girls from the benefit of an ad
vanced course, vet our tax navers
t
should arouse themselves from that
state of lethargy which has had
bad effect upon their votes at school
meetings heretofore.

Mr. L. Wilbur, Snohomish City
Dear Sir;' We wish to add A testU
monial in favor of your Wilbur
Blood Purifier. ,Two years ago this
summer our son Ernest, aged 15
years, became affected with chronic
eczema caused ty impure blood
We Becured the services of the best
chvsicians, and all agreed, that
his case was hopeless. After spend
ing a large amount of money, this
way, we concluded to try your Pur
ifier, of which, five bottles complete
ly cured him, and eradicated every
taint of the dreadful disease. When
he commenced taking your medi
cine his body and limbs were liter
erally covered with large ugly sores
and the muscles of his legs had be
come contracted to such an extent
that the boor'boy was almost bed
ridden. Last year scrofula symp
toms appeared again. . We immed
iately ordered a few bottles and
gave him. Now he is perfectly
sound and well. We" cheerfully
recommend the Wilburs Blood Pur

kept in every home. Respectfully

REVOLUTION IN
AN INVENTION BY
L. E. WILKES
or Hillsboro
A Minor's Money Gone to The Fonr
Winds With no Probability of
Recovery Will Left by Robert
Imbrie Hillsboro People Will
Pay a 23 Mill Tax This Year
Besides The School Levy.
L. E. Wilkes, of this city, is in
receipt of a document from Wash
ington, letters patent on a type
writing machine for recording on
regularly bound books. The ma
chine promises to revolutionize cop
ying in public records and as it is
an entirely practical device, copy
ists are likely to regard it with dis
favor. There should be a great de
mand for the machine in public of
fices of record and it will save
many dollars which are now paid
for penmen.
Mr. Wilkes commenced work on
his model nearly 18 months ago and
his success is due to his natural
mechanical ability and application.
As the invention is one of merit
there will be no trouble in inducing
capital to take hold of the manu
facture of the machine. Mr.
Wilkes is a Washington county na
tive and bis good fortune is fleas
ing to bis large circle of friends
and acquaintances.
All experts who have yet seen
the model pronounce it a practical
and labor saving machine. Mr.
Wilkes was materially assisted hy
his brother, Mr. J. B. Wilkes.

Minor's Patrimony.
Several years ago, some money,
amounting to about. $200, was
placed in the hands of the county
clerk for Charles Mitchell, of this
city, who van then a small ; boy.
The money was left to him as a leg
acy and as no guardian .,waB. ap
pointed the proceeds were to have
been loaned and interest paid' an
nually to the boy. Each year he
has received the interest and noth
ing was thought of the transaction
until several months ago, when the
boy, having arrived at IJJ years of
age, commenced to study the mat
ter over. It has transpired that
all there is to represent the loan is
a note signed by E. C. Hughes, for
$200, which bo far as value is con
cerned.is practically worthless. The
note is dated in July, 1892, and is
drawn one day after date. Since
Hughes has gone out of office the
interest has been paid out of liti
gant's fees which were due him un
der the statute, and which, as soon
as collected by the clerks, have
been applied on the interest of the
note. This resource is said to he
about exhausted and the trust fund
is now a very poor asset. It is
said that this is not the only cas3
where like funds are in notes which
are about, worthless. It would
seem that some law should be
passed to cover these cases so that
children cau not be deprived of
their legacies by some ollicer s act
ion, made intentionally or other'
wise.
