The Eugene City Racing Association has concluded to give a couple of days racing, Oct 23d and 24th. ou the Lane County Fair rce track, just west of this city. Workmen are putting the track iu excellent repair for the occasion. A number of horses are already in training to take part in the different races. The following is the programme selected thus far: ruiDAY, oct. 232 ?. if. Running race, one-half mile, free for all Purse, f 100; first, 70; second, $30. SATURDAY, OCT. 242 P. M. Trotting race, one mile, two best in three, free for nil. Purse, $50. 4 P. M. Running race, COO yards, free for alL Purse, I . There will likely be several more races, but they have not yet lieen fully arranged. A large crowd will undobtedly be in attendance to witness the trials of tiieed. If the proper en couragement is offered, the association intends havinir race once every three months here after. Set thi Calaboose on Fire. Policeman Witter Thursday evening about midnight ar rested a fellow who gavo the name of Monroe, tor drunkenness, and housed him in the city jaiL Mr Witter hod hardly got outside the jail, when he noticed smoke coming from the building. Monroe had ovidently set fire to the straw bedding which Policeman Witter succeeded in putting out after a hard fight. 1 he incendiarv was then locked up in the county jail where he now remains. He has now been arrested bv Sheriff Campbell on the charge of arson and will undouhttdlv be held to appear before the Circuit court. It is very likely that he will serve a term in the rwnitMiitiarv. Another tirisnner was in the opposite cell and if the nightwatchman had gone away without noticing the smoke, there is no doubt that we would be compelled to chroniclo the terrible death of two men by burning. AYol'no Cyclone. A week ago yesterday a portion of the people of Springfield precinct were treated to a yoi.ng cyclone. The first in dication was a funnel-shaped cloud passing through the sky rapidly. The wind began t blow furiously, and first commenced its work at Geo. Ehbert't place, blowing two or three litferent fences several yards. At Mr. J. H. ioodmaus place the wind Mowed a phmk fence away and then struck a workshop and took it up in the air and carried it at least fifty feet and broke the plank in tin same itito iplinters. It next struck a Uorlf of sheep and carried them iu the air for fifteen yards, buV lid not kill any of theirv it is the cener.il opinion that the storm was of a cyclonic nature, .Nothing of the same kind was ever seen in Lane county heretofore. Can it be piHwible that Oregon will be subject to Eastern cyclones in time!' The Public School Again. Rumor have been tc ittere.l throughout town thi week to the effect that the public clot.. I wonlil be closed toou ami a paid school would be commenced instead of the free one, W assure our readers, upon authority from thn board of directors, that the cho., will be continued right a'ong free for all childreu, at least until about Decern ber 13th, when the directors will ask the voter of the district to levy a tax for tl.e support of the chol until the end of the present school year. For the next two nlbuthi warrant w ill be drawn on the clerk tor the salaries due, which w ill be paid out of the first money ructived by him. During the past two years the board of director have borrowed enough mooey ou their iioli vhlual notes and pud the t.iUrie of the teachers as thty accrued until the tax was levied each year in December, but this year they have coucluded to issue w arrants for the aino instead. We believe the people will ustain the director in their action, by vot ing a tax in December. We tlm.k it is legal beyond a doubt to itsue the warrant. It appears that toiue of our less public-spirited uitixeu are willing to close the school to the poor people of the district, but w think that when they coolly reasou over the mat tor, they will attend the meeting aud vote the needed money. We are certain that a majority ot our people are iu favor of a free school. To substantiate our views in the o.nttor of the legality of issuing Warrants, we have had the ichool laws examined by a lawyer, who say he cauuot find one syllable that would not permit th ichool director from contracting a debt in the shape of salaries of teachers. The law says, however, that a majority of the voter of a district must be iu favor of the purchase or building of a school house, fuel, lights, etc, before a debt can be contracted, but for the employment of teachers the law gives the ditector a right to employ teacher and to draw war rants for the payment of the lame. We herewith quote the law aa givee in sub-di-visions 6 and C of eectiufl 37 ol the ichool laws iu relation to this matter) 5 To employ teacher aud assist in the government of to school." U lo audit claims against the district and draworderiontue clerk for theaniouut." By referring to the Supreme Court reports it will be found that the Court ia Third Ore gon, page 56j, in the case of Howard vs. liamfonl, held iu constructing tub-divisiou "o" a follow; When theie are outstanding warrants against a school district, the clerk may pay those first presented. It it not necessary that the money ot each year be exclusively applied to pay for schools taught duribg the year in which it was levied. Where the clerk has money in hi hand applicable to the payment of a warrant, which upon pres entation be refuses to pay, the proper rem edy is by mandamus. It will be seen by the above that the di rector of the district can order the warrants Irawu a the teachers' salaries become due, aud theu the clerk of thn district can pay the lame out ot the first money collected.
