Menagerie Coming. - A letter was received today by the secretary from Prof. Eugene .H. Orubb, of. Carbondale,. Col., stating that" he would be here wkth specimens of his menagerie to exhibit at the livestock show during the meeting. Mr. Orubb , is a prominent breeder of the western slope of Colorado, and on a large game. preserve, which ho has established on . ma niwi inft a w. nan . . - - - - ' successfully put Into practice the theory - or "diversified range stock growing. In i other" words, he has subdued his elk. bear,, mountain sneep una oiner nraun- tain animals that are native m mai district, to such an extent that they roam over his pastures in perfect brotherly love. This may seem strange to the Oregon stockgrower, but Mr. Grubb Is prepared to demonstrate that bis representations are jtrue. Mr, Orubb has i recently been elected professor, of chemistry at the agricultural experiment station of Colorado, and w.ill bring with him ' Prof., W. . U Carlyle who . is pre pared to prove . to th Oregon people that meat can be made without , corn. This is ; of particular Interest to the Western states by reason of tha fact that corn Is not raised to any extent Tha ZKajr-8afferlaff Btooknea. A letter received from' a prominent utockman at Bait Lake City has, the fol lnwinir to say for his territory: "Your favor of the Eth received and " noted, encloBtng call for the convention at Pbrtland from January 11 to 16. 1904, and a synopsis of matters to be dis cussed on that occasion. I hope we will be able to send you a good delegation from Utah. "I know we have a great many abuses to correct. On of the most Important I think Is the wretched service the rail road companies are now giving us when we shin our stock to the marKCV ire tiuently being 18 and 20 hours running 100 miles, and laying our stock out on sidetracks snd loading the trains down with dead freight, and I see also they are going to cut off return transporta tion for the shippers who actually ac- tha rtrw-k in market. . "It seems to me that the big packers and the railroad companies are disposed to cinch- the stockmen harder all the time. The stockmen have the power, If they will only use It, to regulate these thinsrs. and If they would pull together as harmoniously and persistently as the big packers" and the railroad companies do they would accomplish great deal of good in their own behalf. I think the stockmen are more lenient and in clined t have abuses heaped upon them ' than any Other class of business men In ' the country. T.hey certainly' represent the wealth aud power to accomplish much for themselves If they would only so at It with the vim and energy they should. I hope to be able to attend your ' convention and assure you you have my best, heartfelt wishes for success." ' An Authority oa Arid tan 4s. CoL John P. Irish Of San Francisco, who is said to be better posted on the question of arid lands of the West than any other man, aad who has spent a great many years endeavoring to have the stockmen adopt" some plan by which this Important matter can be remedied, writes the secretary of the association .- na follows on this subject "I am certain that sentiment Is such that a conservative move forward now will be very useful. I would advise the . strongest urging of the president's plan ijfor a commission. In the action In fwhlch this Is done the whole situation .; should be stated the war over the dls iippearing range, the transfer of the ; livestock business to Canada and Mexico, ajand with . .great emphasis the fact that proposed changes In the land laws threaten to entirely cut off . the income Intended to support federal IrrU . Ration. If the range is leased and the Income turned into the Irrigation fund, as we have always proposed, there will 1 be no need of resorting to direct appro priatlori out of the treasury, to which the East is solidly opposed." Gov. James K. Toole of Montana has appointed the following delegates to the , National Livestock convention" to d neia 'in Portland January 12 to 16 inclusive: C. ' J. McNamara of Big Sandy, William Lindsay of Glendive, and A. J. David son of Helena. The local executive committee and the various sub-committees of the Rational Livestock and "Wool .Growers' associa tion conventions, to be held in Portland January 11 to 16 inclusive, -will meet this sfternoon at 4 o'clock at the Com' murcial club. The object of the meet iug is to confer regarding work already done and to make final arrangements. "Save Me!" "Save Me!" 'You Often have heard this appeal.

A comparison of the conduct of the business of the schools -with otner olnces -similarly situated shows, conciu iilvely that the charge of extravagance cannot be laia at tne aoors or ira ai rectors: on the contrary, It is question able if we have advanced along the lines of education as. -have schools 01 other communities. Titers is a striking rrowth in nrlvate schools In this com munity, and it is not , improbable that this is a result of over crowding and failure to keep up with' more modern methods. Be this as it may, the work in the grades covered by the public school system should be kept at huch a hlsh standard that there will be no nee.d from this cause of any child attending any other school. There may be, and are: arounds for disagreement as to how high in scholastic work the public school system should go, but there Is no dis pute that m the fundamentals 11 snouio be thorough. Over-crowding is a serious obstacle to good work, both for teacher and DUDtl. In considering the com para tive table following, it must oe oorne In mind that In schools like those of Denver they have both manual training and the kindergarten, and other features that- we. do not havei At Seattle tney have manual training.

The foregoing table will give some idea of the cost of conducting schools in other places as compared with Portland. Isvors XfOBf-Term Bonds. To return to the' question before us. It will be seen that this year, in order to meet the expenditures, the levy should' have been I0V6 mills at least, and the future shows an Increase. The increase in assessed valuation Is but Ave per cent; In pupils eight per cent, with a larger one in sight Tbj Woodlawn school of eight rooms cost $22,002. With the in creased "attendance at least . 24 , rooms al(litlonal'wlll be required ' this 1 year, with-' the probability of a demand ?6r school to take the place bf the Atkinson. A 'strong' demand for improved sanlta tlirti will be made; a new plant for heat ing and ventilating will be asked for the high school; the street and sewer ex penditures will be large, all . over and above the normal Increase growing from increased attendance. On the assessed valuation what is the tax likely to be, and shall all expenses and buildings be paid for through a direct tax? There are two mals.uses to which the money Is devoted! one is the maintenance and operation of the schools; the other, to iew buildings and. betterments.- It has been- the, practice at each school meeting to vote a tax- to maintain the schools and to build the new buildings required. In other words, the taxpayer of today is not only paying for the edu cation and bousing of his children, but for the housing ef the children of the future. ' ...'v -V v-: ' :- W'lth the percentage of Increased. cost already shown to assessed valuation, if continued this tax.will 1b tlnK become verv burdensome. J Jt . ia-truethatJlh9 plan of paying as you go tends to econ omy, but It also tends to. limitations in other directions. In my; Judgment at Jiiast in cases where new building are hniit to- rer)lace -thoasr which t na longer be Used, and for all purchases of real estate, the money lb pay for the same should be raised by sale of bonds running over a long term of years, witn portion thereof payable eacn year, ine annual tax levy should cover cost ox maihtehanciiind operation, additions to buildings not of a permanent character, interest and sinking fund. , Would Have Playgrounds. I concede that the policy of bonding the district opens tip a large question and one that should be very carefully considered before final actloh Is taken thereon. I present the thought now bo that every one can consider It from an unbiased standpoint , Muchcan be said on both-sttes of the question, but for the purpose of this report it is sufficient to bring it to your attention and let each one do some thinking himself on the subject' The character of the buildings to De erected in the future, whether of wood. brick or stone, their size, location, etc., should also be considered. Personally. I believe., as a safeguard for the future If for no other reason. Dlay grounds .should hereafter always be, provided in the neignoornooa or me i, school house. You. have but to. recall I the enormous expense some of the cities have gone to but recently to furnish I Vjf'li"ti I jy i 91 uuiiuo 4-i iw -' in order to realise the necessity for providing for this feature now while land is cheao. As to the character of sanitation re quired, there :an bs but one - opinion. Physicians of the state board 01 neaitn .are making extensive and thdrough in vestigations, reports 01 which aro Demg Dubllshed from time to ume in tne aany papers. As these reports come irom people standing high in their profession, and who, as public ontciais, are dui ao- ln their duty, it would be well to give serious consideration to tneir recom mendatlons. All history tells us that there rlfl be no backward step taken in the public schools, for r If - there is on Idea solidly imbedded in the mind of the average American, it Is that the public schools must be maintained and at a high stand-1 ard. ? 1 I Parents will not consent for any 1 length of time to have their children in unhealthy surroundings, or exposed to I disease; and I nay say teachers are also I unreasonable enough to object to these I conditions. -.1 simply . suggest these I thoughts now for the consideration on the taxpayer, for whether or not he has! the Interests of the schools at heart, he might as well make up his mind that the people will have good schools and comfortable and healthful buildings, and meet the issue accordingly..

Captain Cochran, one of the principal owners, ; gave out sometime ago that, the vessel would probably lay Idle until spring. In the meantime he Intended to look up a route for her. When the breakdown of the Spencer, 00 curred it is said that he began to con slder the advisability of putting : his steamer on that run. It will probably require almost all winter to enlarge the Spencer and to make other contem plated alterations, and It Is pointed out that the Telephone could take ' up the rate war" where It was left off by the Spencer and build up a gooa business, Agent Steelsmith at the Oak-street dock, says there Is now an excellent op portunlty for an opposition boat to he put ori the run ' during the Spencer's enforced layoff, He says that good profits can bo realized - from such a venture. ANOTHER BOAT IN THE SPRING F. P. Baumgartner, local agent of the California & Oregon Coast Steamship company, says k Is very probable an other steamer will be put on tha Coos Bay route about April 1. The proposl tion Is under consideration by his com pany, and he states Is looked upon with considerable favor. ' V i Putting & steamer on the run. early in the spring, Mr. - Baumgartner de clares, would be a profitable move. Dur ing .the spring and summer months good business could be built up to a suf ficient extent to make it possible to leave the vessel In commission during the dull winter months. : A number of factories and mills will be in operation at North Bend by that time, and a good portion of their product will be shipped to Portland. The Nsvarro got but very little Cargo coming, this way. ' : . San Francisco has built up an exten sive trade with the Coos Bay towns, but Mr. Baumgartner says it. was secured by a sort of a reciprocity arrangement San Francisco merchants buy Coos Bay coal, and the people at the latter place patronize Bay ; City wholesale houses, If the residents of Portland would get coal down there, the local agent of the steamship company ; states, it would be an easy matter for them to extend their trade relations in, that section of the country. A. steamer and perhaps two or three- of them could then.be kept In steady commission between Portland and , the Coos Bay towns. . They would always be assured of being able to se cure coal cargoes lor the return trip, At present a steamer from bere la com pelled to return light. . 118,000 rOB HTJBBABXTS XtXATX, . ; (Journal Special Service.)
