When aaked about the sale of bottles

"I quite agree with Mr. Beldlng that
such articles should sot be sold for the

said I would Inveatlgate the question
which I did. I also told Mr. DaggoU
thla week that the sale of bottles wns a
menace to public health and should not
be allowed.
"However, as near1 as I could deter
mine the quantity of bottlea sold waa
rifling. Few of them reach the gar

bottlea on their rounds of collection and

consider the question of dividing the
school district, the town of Gladstone
to pull away and form a new district.
with the Clackamas- river as tha di
viding line.
All the people from Oladatone were
there In full force, and so were all llv
Ina- at ParkDlaca.
ParkDlace DeoDle are unwilling to let
uiaostone go, and at tne aame time
Oladatone wants to ao. In order to
keep Oladatone in the district, the Park
piece people are wiiiina- to cut no I
achoolhouse In Gladstone and furnlah
two primary teachere. Thla $ropoel-
uon win not oe considered at uiaosione.
and the next move by the Parkplaee
feople is to help the organisation of
he propoaed school district at Jen
nlng's Lodge, which would take In the
western portion or Uladatone. and there
by cripple the prospect of a school dls
trlct In Oladatone at present.
The matter waa warmly debated by
both sldea. and will come before the

As soon aa thla hprama known fn

ment mrougnout that peaceful com
munity, and yeaterday a remonstrance,

against being annexed to Jennlng'a
Lodge for school purposes, was filed
witn tne county auperintendent. and
alao one for the organisation of a school
district at Gladstone, with the names
of the signers of the remonstrance,
signed to it.
The petition for the school district
at Gladstone alleges that there are 12G
achool children In that place, and Glad-
tone people assert that there are but
27 cnlldren of achool age at Jennlng
isoage.
Gladstone la across the Clackamaa
river from Parkplaee and Is- a portion
of the Parkplaee achool district, and a
great many would be well pleased to re
main In the old district, aa the Park
place school atanda high among the

classes running up to the tenth grade,
but If the Oladatone people are to be
cut off from the old district, they pre
fer to go It alone, and run their own
school.
The matter will come up before the
