E. J. Seely. Committee. Desebvcs Tab and Fxatheks. Grants Pass Courier : Perhaps one of the most emphitic cases of total depravity in the hnman animal is that of one Hendricks who deserted his wife and four little children to run off with two young fe males a few months ago. Hendricks. who was in the emolov of the W. L. P. A Co. of this city, had neglected his family long beiore nnaiiy deserting tnem, and it was a notorious fact that the wife and little ones were suffering for the neces saries of life while he was sporting a high-priced bicycle with expensive "sweaters" ana other paraphernalia about the city. His wile, an honest, in dustrious and good woman, with her youngest child, left a few days ago to prosecute him at Ked ttiutr, uai., where Hendricks was living with one of the girls as his wife. The other is said to be at Sisson, under an assumed name. The three remaining children two girls and a bov. bright little folks were sent down Sunday to Red Bluff through the charity of some kindly disposed neighbors. Whiskey sometimes causes a man to lose all self-respect and love for family, but this was not a whiskey cate. It was simply a cold-blooded and premeditated desertion and one of those rare cases which cause the ordinary mortal to blush for bis race In comparison to the lour legged brute of the forest.

Second It is fair to presume that the county officials levied upon property for delinquent taxes with full knowledge of the law. it they did not, they certainly should have before prxeeding. E. W.

Nowhere else a-e theae les sons taught as in the public school, hot it requires the co-operation of parents to have three results Tbbfoiloaine is an axiom in school work : No child ever succeeds well in school whose parents or friends do not manifest a persona! interest in its school life. Children need encouragement and sympathy manilesution of personal interest in their well being. I recognize that according to the law of the division of lalior a great pan of the education of the child is consigned to the teacher. The teacher hat grave responsibilities snd for a time twing is in loco parentis but there are some things teachers can not do without assistance from, parents.

Clark presence in the city called upon him at the St Charles, not for a formal interview, for the Democbat is not an "nterviewer, bat to meet cne of tbe prominent men of the U.

Air. dark is a pleasant appearing, shrewd looking gentleman of about 60. He treated the Dexocbat man very courteously ; but, remarked that newspaper interviews were very distasteful to him, as be hsd no desire for notoriety, and besides they generally were not correct versions of a persons statements. The one in the Uregonian, for instance, did not do him justice, as it would lewd the reader to be lieve that he was oppoeed to river and harbor improvements, whereas, as a; matter nf fact, he was verv much in fa vor of them where needed, aa his record would show ; but woakl make them in a business way. Yaquina, for instance, had been improved by driblets for 13 years where the work could have been done in three. Tbe appropriation was expended, and the work allowed to re main until the next appropriation, when it took nealy hall to repair that already until completed, a very level-beaded' proposition Major Clark was favorably j impresM-d w ith aqaina as a coast har- bor. and is in favor of its improvement in a business way and as extensively as i circumstances will justify. Ia reierence to the Colutul-ia he sees what is undoubt edly discernable to many, that when Astoria secures a railroad the mouth 61 tbe Columbia ai l become a harbor and Uie river this side will not need con tinned extensive improvements just for the benefit of Portland. It was this thai raised the ire ot the Oregonian and brought out Mr. Scott's choice vocabu lary of invectives. Major Clark was very much pleased with the Wiliamette valley and can see great possibilities for it in the future. After remaining at Newport for some time kmgfr be will return t his botae in Missouri, taking back a good impres sion of the northwest and the people of this country, as well as the good will of the many who have been favored by meeting him.
