Circuit Couit rroceeritugg. Professor C. L. Gilbert, Republican candidate for county school superinten dent, is well known throughout the comity, having occupied that position for the past two years. His devotion to educational matters, together with tho marked interest he has manifested during his term to im prove the schools of Wasco county, will insure him a very large vote. Mr. Gilbert has the reputation, where ever known, of being "the right man in the right place," having performed his duties as superintendent justly and im partially to all. Mr. Gilbett has filled the position of principal of the public schools at Hood River for four years, having taken charge of these schools at a time wlitn they were perhaps not what they might have been, and, during his administration, brought them up to a standard ia ond to none in the county. Hia efficient work for the last two years throughout the county is manifest, and we can predict that if he is superin tendent for the next two years, Wasco county will be able to say proudly that her schools are second to none in the state. All who feel an interest, and every good citizen should, in the future welfare and education of ttie young, give him their hearty support in tho coining election. He has always been an earnest, con sistent Republican, but for all this he has never allowed his political views to influence him in tLo least in the dit- charge of his duties as superintend! nt. Vote for him and you will never regret it. Tho following cases were disposed of in the circuit court yesterday: LAW. G IS Bartell vs. Geo T Thompson, con tinued.
