cmocrat. FRIDAY JULY 16, 186 KHKtW IX THE UlBk A Republican cotemparary, itching for something to cainpUin of at a Dem ocratic ad ntoisti ation, and finding nothing; bstttr. tolls about what souie correspondent says about mail uciliiies from Brownavilio to Albany, and thus gats in aoharaotaristio growl about "thin wn Democratio administration of re form progression." It is laughable to eee bow some men will run thsir own hatla into halteia which thor have cunningly sot for others. The ootem porary spoken of would follow into any forbidden path to get an axsuss for growling about a Democratic adminis iratioa. The truth about this matter ia this : Long before a Democratic ad ministration was inaugurated at Wash iagton a schedule had been established by a Republican postmaster general for eirrrini? the mail from liaise? to o Brownsville and on to Crawfordsville After a while the people found that by that schedule :t took two days to gel a letter from Brownsville to Albany, so they made application to the posts agent to change the nchedute time which he did without consulting the authorities at Washington. The agent had no power to make this ehauge. but the mail was carried on uuder this change until the oonlract was entered into the fust of July, when the con tractor waa informed by the agent that he must travel b? the echedule estab lished by the po3t office department. He was infoimed at the same time tbst the change could be made if the post, masters at each end of the line would request it fiom the post office depart ment. This request has already been forwarded to Postmaster General Vilaa and we have no tleubt vhat the change will eooa be made. So all this growling was abju; a seheJute adopted by a Re publican administration and enforced by a Democratic admiaiat ration. ol DM 111. Oar neighbor of the lltrald M "off his bangs" again. (We believe he ween bang.) He says that Presideut Cleve land haa vent ia 2427 appointments so far, snd that the Senate has "returned only 17 cor: IroieJ " Its readers will not be surprised t this stupidity. The n iblie. without reflection, will seo the r a' surdity of this statement. The truth it that of appointments which have to b confirmed by the Senate, President C cveland St ud 24 27,and a Repub lican Senate, ever watchful to Snd any excuse for rejecting an appoiotment,ba beu able to find objections sufficient to reject only 17. Over eighteen hundred htve bean confirmed and the Senate hca returned 17 as not confirmed. This is conclusive of the remarkable care which fie Preeident exercises in making selec tt ins of those who are to do the work of the poblic. Tois great care and du exettfa of Bound discriminating judg ment on the part of the President is ca'llofij out gennine encomiums from all intelligent Republicana and Democrat alike. siwrs. Hops ere said to be nearly a failure In tbo great hop regions of New York The lice are said to be eating th6 vines and hops literally up. In con sequence the price hss bounded up to 18 to 25 cent In the hop regions of that state. As high at 25 cents psr poand has been offered at 8cramen to. They will probably go higher. Psci lie Coast hops will command the beat price. It is evident that the attitude of thA American nainle toward the political pirties in England during the late parliamentary elections had much to do in bringing about the de feat of the English liberals under the leadership of Gladstone. The Amer ican people were altn wt a unit in their dfcire to ?e the liberal party win, in order t Hie immediate adap tion of home rule for Ireland. Of -oure there hag always much r..d!c:l antagoni-io between the po litical policy of tho American and Englih,and whatever the Americans would recommend a the true and beat policy of EngUnd toward Ire land, would be regarded by the Eng lish aa the opposite of what would be bpst for thorn to do. Hence tbo wish of the Americans which was loud and out spoke.n has resulted lu the overwhelming defeat of thst which they desired t") see ucv'' d. Their interference has been unwiso and unpolitic, and ti con.ri'Mi'J In set ting horn ) ruio f r Ireland back for some time at least. Uncle Jeme ApplegaU',one of tbe old pioneers of Deuglas county, has been committed to tha Insane Asylum. He is 75 years of age and no hopes of re covery is entertained, it is said that bis losses as suoty en th? bond of Sam May, Republican Secretary of State, who was a defaulter in a large snm soma years ago, broke the old man down in body and mind, and that be has never rocoveied from the shock. The Swnate committee on commerce has reported adversely on the nomina tion of Herbert F. Bjechor, sn of Henry Ward Bsecber, to bo Collector of OustomH fit Port Townsend, W. l H.

The associsttcn of the teachers of Oregon convened at Yaquina City at 1 o'clock, Jtly 6tb, 1886 Tbero was a very large attendance, the hotel buing unable to acoommodate the people. The nrocram was opened by Ptof. J. B, ilorner.Fnueiplo of the Hoseburg Tun ic School, in ii very able addreas on School lAovernmeur, The speaker showed nut only that he had studied the subject from UN practical side, but that he hnd all the theory. This,added to the fact that he i well known as a model governor, made his address of especial value to the association. Prof. Frank Itigler, of Park school, Portland, was called to the rostrum ou The Study of History. An cx:urston to the South Biuch aud other points haying been previously planned, the association adjourned. Another heavy train arrived iu the ersmngt tilling tbe omoers oi me asso . , - .a i m . I ciation and the various hotel hoi la with consternation. But.throuch the aston ishing energy and address of Prof. Mo- Kirov, the .State Superintendent, sua the great Grant of the Ysqutua Hotel, all were made coaitortuble. Among all the genial aud capable hosts of tbe hos pi table North West, Mr. Grant, of the aoove named house, deserves a very prominent plaoe. As to the State Su perintendent, he is like Billy Sherman of war fame. The bovs will all rotutmi ber bow Billy used to know where - everv regimeut was to camp ; and when any boy would be wanted in the middle of the night for some duly, the boyi med to swear and complain tbat old Billy knew where to find every one of them. This great army of teachers U quartered at least at four points. About one hundred are at Nowport,about one hundred and fifty at Yquina,auout ona bundled on South Beach, and others at otber points. Besides the transports tion of so man by special anaOgemeot ith the railways must have taxtd tbe genrrtileblB ttea OK kt n-know SfJgtJl superior. Ou Wedncs-lay evening at 7 o'clock the association convened, and ws open sd by Prof. W. S. Walker, of Browns ville, in an address on Industrial h lo cation. II i maintained that the han should bo taught before the head. It believed that, if children go into schoo at six years of age and remain untt twtntv-ooe. when wiil they learn to work ? Children should not go into school until the age of ten or twelve. By this limv, tbe beginning of a trade may ho made ; and habits may be form ed uuder the wh leome influence of home, from which ;luv art) under lb present aystem, too early emancipated Then l'ror. Kigler came on witb an ad Jreas on History. The auMnct was taken up and discussed at lergh by number of speakers Mr. Dtnli.ii nJ otbr ladies made some god dsmont rations of Kinder garten work. J be aw jeca of Kinder carten work waa then discuastd. Prof. Walker ssked .Mr . Dunisp whether the work aimed or tended to a founds uon tr tho luntional courses now used. She did uot answer directly in ths affirmative. She 'jaid that it ia not a school It sims to develop manners and morals, as well ss the m$ f th band, eye and all .he fscuhi'-s. Preai dent J. W. Johnson, of the Oregon Stats University,an:icipatcd tbat those advocation tbe Kindergarten srstem would, in the end, aim to make it an appurtenance of the public school, and to be, like them, supported by public tax, took the conservative aide, and made a very able speech. It is range how mere gallantry will make men, in so grave au assembly, in tbs face of so serious a question, suppress real opin ion. Pres. Johnson did not das; but he quietly maintained his defente.qual ifyiig bis opponents who jjanihted in misinterpreting his position. Ifo had the popular vote in the end. A motion to refer this question to ac . limit tee on resolutions wse made by Prnf. Miliar, late of Philomath College. It vas re ferred. Tbe association a-lj :urn-d. Tbe evening sessi ju was not well at tended, owing to a storm ou the Bay that prevented the attendance of lha Newport and South Biach delegations. The regu.ar program was anspended, and a frea lanc3 discussion occurred of ths question of giving prizes in school. Prof. Walker took the view that prize were good. Ho had much withy oppo sition.and beemed to snflVr a gay defeat. But he determined to use prtzea for ever ! On the p: oi th e ar''ri.on wa a song ty Mia Hie Parri-,h.

Thursday morning at 0:30 the pro gram was oteued be an addreaa on Journalism as au e i:icator,by Mr. 1 aac Manning, of th Silera Statesman. His paper showed labor, taste, skill and special reference to the present dliber ative season. Mr. W. C. Htwiev. P'incipal of (Jmpqua AcadtiuivJeotured on the "Devc'oomeitt of tho I utelJect." Good, clear and well delivered. Miss E. M. Howard, of Albany, introduced "Language Lessons i" Primary Classes." She is a good speak c, and a e'ear, en ergetic worker. O. M. Miiler.of Phil omath College, lectured on "Methods of Conducting Br eaftf atsaiss.' Hn speaks very freely, having tho avbieof treated under three beade, nsuiol, the When, tbe How and tbo Why." All agreed witb him. Whispering in school was a topic for general discussion open ed by Prof. 0-awford of Portland pub lic schools, lie allowed whispering in school, under the control f judicious teachers. He was followed by Prof, Reid, Superintendent of Public School for Linn county. Ho very clearly showed tbat it is a vice, and xhootd b "upprMaed so far as possible. Others followed. Closed by Prof. Ilival of Oregon City. The first thing in the afternoon ses sion waa the resumption of tbo whimper ing question. Many good remark wer9 made, among tLcm whs a Hpeech made by Mr. Jackson, of Orsnt county. He is the oldest teacher in the state. having beea in the work here forty-one years. Ionic sol-ta was taken up bv Prof. Parvin.of Willametto University, after Mr. Jackson bad sung two songs to tbe liveliest satisfaction ot the Asso ciation. Prof. Parvm defined the svs- tem and treated the subject very ably. ltev. m. Li. Iiug, ot Silera, came upon the stage in a very Btrong and graceful address on the abstract or metaphysical problem of education. Ho beizaa -with cbildhond, "Buy tho truth1 ws bin text. He defined truth. !f. m&d Olt! the order of exercises wsj thoohairmtn of the committee on resolution made a pirtial rep n. It related to the Kin dei gat tea, aud recommended that the law be so changed that children uuder six years of ago tie allowed (roe Kinder garten instruction at the expense of the state. The resolution promised that children over four years of age draw itiblic monev ; but until the age of six, or about that, somewhat less than une- third of the children of the state aro without instruction. Dr. Atkinson, of Portland, took the floor in tbo aflirma tive. Ho spoke ably on the subject. e eularged upon the philosophy of tho demand. He said that a child two and a half yours of age is the measure (d'the stature of the full grown man The child of that age is half the stature of the crown msn. He showed thit no other voars of a child's life are so im Kirtant in his training as those between our and six. He argued that Kinder garten instruction was best of all adapt ed to tbe child a mind. The whole ss Homniv discussed tne question very eautiouely,for the reason that ths school legislation of the state haa been, in tbe past, somewhat nuiaohiovous. ' Ths re port was recommitted. Tho evening session wss an svent long to bo remembered. Good music by one of the best bands of the state, the Mechauin'a Baud of Albaoy,and by the boat vocalists of the state, Hyely reoitations,anthuaiastio eucors,s crowd- ed house, happy faoe, happy hearts,all ft an imperishable impression on tbs hearts snd mmds of all. Notable among the L-erforinano?s were an instrumental solo bv Miss Cummins, of Chicago, a number of snugs by Miss Parrisk, of Salem, a quartette of male voices as follows, Z. M. Parvlo.W. A. Witzel.T. H. Crawford and I. A. Manning,a dust by Miss Parriah and Prof. Parvio, and a Parody on Barbara Fritobie,by a sec ond Jay Buford. Also "Tbe Boat swain's Story, "a song, by Prof. Parvio, a recitation by Miss Emily Hswlet, "The Famine" by Miss Sencer,of Cor vallis, and a sweetly rendered solo by Misa WiUhv'f Salem. Ths old Fourth Header class was then rendered by Mr. Wetsl. It was simply the funniest thing ever seen 1 Pardon.gentle Christ ian editor ! I am under the spell of it tQI, and 1 may be guilty of hyperbole. Tbe next wai a solo by Prof. J. 8. Sweat, "Ths Shabby Genteel.'' Good. The solo by Mrs. Wetzel, "Bonnie Sweet Bessie," proysd ber to be with out a peer as a vocalist in this state. She waa enthusiastically encored until she returned to tbo atage and sang,ob ! ao beautifully, 'Comtn' Through tbs Ke." Mias'Tupner, of tbe Portlaod High School, presented two very 6ne natations. The latter of the two was an Irish character recitation, "fluriin' Ducks." It waa wtll and humorously ftusUinad. Closed with a sons, "It was a Dream," Camitle Walt., by Mrs. Watsil. Excursions up the river by the three steamers of tbe harbor, under the chatter or the Women's Christian Temperance Uoiun,with free lunch waa announced. Adjourned. Fi'iday morning session was opened by a proposition to make a perm toeot organization of the association. Post poned until afternoon. Prof. Bairn tben came to the fron; with a maoltkio, and made remarks upon its ua and tbe study of physiology in school, rrof. Walker moved tbat, in connection with this branch cf science, tbe subject of tm per a nee be taken up, as connected with the above named science. Mrs. L. A. Nash, of Corvallia, made a good address. She was followed by Prof. J Burnam. He delivered a good argu ment. Tbe dissuasion of tbe temper ance question showed much preparation and waa aa well fcrmalsted as any otber work of tbs institute, f bun, we see, the matter weighs on the poblic mind. In the efternoon of Friday, two ad dresses were delivered by Prof. Condon, of tbe State University, sod by Pres. Ellis, of Pacific University. It waa agreed to have an evening session, but when the association bad convened it was deemed beat for some reasons to adjourn. Tbe present meeting of the association will be remembered long and well as one of the moat successful ever bad. Resolution next week. A bsMtJBJ. ISrowniaville.
