Was Not the Jim Jams.
Rosxbckg, Jan. 25. To the Eorros:
In today's issue of yoar respected journa
there appeared an item under the head
of "Yoncalla News" referring to the
finding of a man on Saturday last in a
delirious slate, wading in Elk Creek.
The man was discovered by Oscar TbielS
and Geo. Staley, and was brought to
Rosebnrg for treatment. Although there
were no name3 mentioned, 1 know that
the article referred to me, end snch being
the case I would beg leave to ask you to
kindly make a correction in justice to
SBysell and the many kind friends who
have cose to my assistance. The article
Mates that it was undoubtedly a .case of
delirium tremens, and I will say in ex
planation that such is not the case, as I
am cot a drinking man and am strictly
temperate. It was just a case of tempo
rary aberration of the mind, caused by
extreme hunger and exposure, brought
about by a trip on foot from Portland in
search of work. Being unused to such
hardships all my life my system natur
ally caved in nnder the strain, and hence
the temporary unbalanced state of my
mind. Hy feet were frozen and I am
bow under the care of a physician.

Grand Rally at Yoncalla.
Yoxcaixa, Jan. 24. Captain Peters,
post commander of Oakland poet of the
G. A. R., liaving received orders of the
department commander to organize a
G. A. R. post at Yoncalla, Jan. 23, 1695,
met the genial post commander of Drain,
Dr. J. P. Easier, on the field. They
found 16 charter members, and forth
with proceeded to muster according to
G. A. R. law, naming the child Gen.
EOet Post. Then the election of offi
cers followed, towit: A. W. Lamb,
Post Commander; L P. Kinman, Sen.
Vice; John A. Tracy, Jun. Vice; Ir. H.
Palmer, Chaplain; E. Jones, Q. M.;
.Martin Gulh, p. Day ; George Warner,
A. J.;W. S. Fegal, O. Guard; W.J.
Buchanan. Sar. 31.; Dr. Charles, Post
Secy. These were duly installed with a
due amount of signs, grips and pass
words. Then the rank and file left the
spacious hour e of tho adjutant, to make
room for the incomplete ranks of the
Ladies, Relief Corps, assisted by the
wifes and daughters ot the soldiers, and
many true friends of the boys in blue,
who showed full well that the days of
foraging parties were over. Surely any
quartermaster of 'C3 or 'CI could realize
that all he had to do was to send an
orderly to each kitchen and his requisi
tion work would be done. If any old
boy in bloe went away hungry it was bis
fault, but even an old Eoldier can't eat
all the time, and so one another were
slipping out to Comrade Warner's fence
for a rail or to his wood pile for a chip to
throw on the camp fire, which soon
blazed up filling the hall with light and
laughter, which continued till all were
assured that Yoncalla post had come to
stay. Many thanks are due from the
Post to all parties concerned, especially
the ladies. Comrades, everywhere, re
member a cordial invitation is extended
to you to meet with us the second and
fourth f-aturdays of each month at 2
o'clock eharp. Chaplain.

Insurance Troubles Over.
The trouble which has for some time
kept tho insurance fraternity in a stnto of
nnoasinees seems to have at last beei
practically eettled. Tho Pacific Insur
ance Union has gono out of existence
This has bion succeeded by tho Board of
Firo Underwriters of San Francisco,
which Las mado some changes, doing
away with the system of dividing com
mission to secure business. Tho board
instead of paying local agents 20 per cent
commibsion, as heretofore, proposes to
pay office rent and 15 per cent com mis
sion. It is thought this will have a ten
dency to prevent agents from dividing
their commission with patrons, but as
further safeguard azainst this, the
hoard provides that any agent found di
vidiug his commission shall not bo ul
lowed to write any more ineurance for
year, and tho property-owner who takes
a uivv" on commisBion win uavu u

vast project so long and vigorously urged

Told of Joe Simon.
Much is being said of Joe Simon,
president of I he senate, but it is generally
of a nature showing him up aa a political
bow. The. following story is said to bo
true, and tends to show tha bright fide
of his character in a"wav that makes us
nil feel better:
A bright son of a Salem widow boarded
the car that carried Joseph Simon frcm
the Salem depot to tbe Willamette hotel
I am tho son of a uidow .1 newsboy
and I support my mother," tho bov re
marked to Mr. Simon. "I want you to
appoint me as a page. Wc are poor and
want to help mamma." "You shall
havo the placo. Come nnd see me to-
moirow," was Mr. Simon's rply. And
tho boy got the place. For this we like
Mr. Simon. We are fclad that that en
terprising newsboy touched the politi
cian's heart, it shows that Air. bimon
has a pal pit a tor in tho right place now
and then.

"I entered upon the discharge of my

conception of the" great responsibility and
confidence reposed in mn by the people
of Oregon, in trn3ting the leadership
of tbe great cause of education to my
direction. Tho affairs devolning upon
mo as- superintendent can bo lessened
'n niany ui'.tances an 1 rendered more
pleasant by the hearty co-oieration on
tho part of tho county superintend'
ents and others of the school offices. I
sincerely solicit tho aid and support of
'he county superintendents, school direc
tors, and all persons interested in the
welfaro of , education and its advanee-
ment. Our educational affairs arc eo or-
ganized that no one m m can liave that
success s detired without the support,
co - operation, and help of the frienda of
education. As chief executive ov r all
the educational affairs of the state, I
shall, with due courtesy, strive to dis
charge the duties ot this oiiice with 1m-
partiality, and, a tiras possible, accord-
mc to law. I respectfully ask that al1
county superintendents thoroughly a:
quaint themsetves-with their dutie3 as
. .. .
821 forlh in the school law, and also the
duties of tho board of directors and teach-
era 'hat they may be prepared to give
such information as properly belongs to
their departments.
"The state superintendent
will take
great pleasure in furnishing county sup
erintendents all proper information when
called for. Frequently questions are
sent to this office by directors, teacherw
and others, for which decisions are de
sired. All snch should be first presented
to the county superintendent for his de
cision, and. if such decision is not satis
factory, then thev may, along with the
copy of the complaint and decision of
the county superintendent; be sent to
this office for final decision. It is tny
determination to render all possible aid
fn forwarding the educational interests of
e state. I am anxious to meet the
public, nnd stand ready at any time to
visit any school of the state and deliver
addresses npon education whenever and
wherever desired. It is my desire to
msAc aH 11,0 departments of the schools
of Oregon aa good a3 possible. In order
to do thia, I need the hearty co opera-
tion aa'J ,ielI' of a!1 ,he county snperin-
tendents, directors, teachers and frienda
of education throughout the state.
Wishing you 11 the greetest success in
all your,: work, I remain your fellow
worker. '

the full committee on pensions in favor
of his bill to extend the Mexican pension
act to the Indian war veterans of the
Caytree Indian war, and of tho war of
1855 and 1836 of the states of Oregon and
Washington. Tho chairman of the com
mitte distinctly announced to tho com
mittee that he too favored this legisla
tion. Mr. Hermann reminded the com
mittee that tho limitation of time recog-w
nized the service pension legislation as to
all the old wars of the put, has now
been reached in this year as to the In
dian war survivors of the Pacific North

sion of thia amendment the committee
