SATURDAY, APRIL , 1906. i v - i ., , . . , BUSINESS MEETING THE POWtR Of TEAmT Maay Mar ae Bui It Tk Gaalaa ta iaiue Wan w tha CounaT Will Conduct Business on Business Principles. and tha Common Council It Unani moua for RatranKmant In Evar Departmant of tha City Govammant. , ine iouowmg petition, directed to the tax payers of Astoria, has been presented to this office with a request that It be published In order that the friends of the pubic schools may un derstand the condition of affairs. To the Tax Payers and the Patrons of the Schools: we, the teachers of the Astoria schools, wish to state to the tax payers and the patrons of the city of Astoria that for more than a year, the teachers of the city have been attempting to navy the SiHaries of teachers placed at , figures commensurate with the living xjen8es here, and with the salaries of the teachers of other places In the state. One year ago at our county institute the subject was agitated by both the state superintendent and the other In structors, and was thorouirhlv dis cussed by instructors and teachers. The teacners were urged to claim their , right in the matter, not on their own account, alone, but professionally. in . sympathy with teachers, not only In the state of Oregon, but also all over the United States. At this meeting we were told that I ine state per capita tax had been raised in order to beneBt teachers. The tax , payers will remember that at about i that time the school tax levy was de , creased, the percaplta tax benefiting the tax payers Instead of the teachers, i This decrease In taxation would about cover .he 20 per cent requested by the , teacners in the petition following. : The result of the agitation begun at the institute was that a year ago, a ; petition requesting an increase In sal aries, was signed by ail of the teach i rs, and presented to the board, June 1904. Later the papers announce ?,. teachers' salaries h,l This was believed by the majority oi . the teachers to be a general and a ma terial increase, until the onenln.- nt ,, - - a -"D wa. laJI term, when it was ascertained that ""crease was slight, ranging from two to Ave dollars, and that this had been granted In only a few cases. ! The teachers then supposed that matters would be arranged satisfactor ily at the tax meeting, December, 1904, by requesting a larger appropriation for school purposes. This was not done. The next move of th tarhr. December, 1904, when they requested Joint meeting pf the board and leacners. They were promised a meet ing which after weeks of delay wa nnauy granted the first of February, 1305. At this meeting a second petition was presented to the board. After holding the matter under considTatlon lor almost two months, the board re plied that they regretted exceedingly that they were unable to grant th in quest at this time and notwithstanding the fact that a petition had been pre sented, June, 3904, they futher stated that had the matter been taken up at me annual meeting of the tax payers and a levy made sufficient to have allowed the increase that they should have been very glad to connly with me request of the teachers.
