very life-like.

'The Antelope Herald says: "Mr. J.'
PI. Sberar, of Sherar'a Bridge, displays a
friendliness towards educational inter
ests which is but rarely found among as.
He refused to charge for tollage, feed for
team, or for meals for three gentlemen
from "foe Dalles, who were en route'
to the educational meeting at this place,
saying that be could not charge them
while they were helping along such a
good cause. Such jajl.epirit is highly'
commendable." jHis interest in the
welfarerof Antelope has also been very
extensively displayed, he having charged
but half toll on all the lumber shipped
from Wamic to re-build the part of that
town which was destroyed by fire.

"Within the past few days reports
came in that several hundred head of
sheep have died j,n various sections of
the country, seemingly of poison," eaye
the Heppner Gazette. "In an interview
with Frank Farnsworth, he informed us
that over one hundred have died within
the last day or two in their corrals, be
longing to bis father and Mr. Bishop.
His supposition coincides with, other
sheepmen, who believe that climatic
conditions have brought to the surface
an alkali poison which is doing the mis
chief. Messrs. Herrin and Stevens are
also reported losers of a number of head.
It. seems a wise suggestion that an
analysis be made and the result might
enable the .sheepmen to combat the
evil."
Even the stare and toss of the head

ing has' not caused ub to repent our
article concerning him yesterday; but
wj are inclined to believe, from reports
brought us this morning, that perhaps
the town cow is entitled to as much cen
sure as the city goat. While she is capa
ble of jumping over the moon, she seems
to consider herself the cream of society
and therefore etately lifts the latch,
walks in the gate and forgetting the
milk of human kmdnees which she
should possess, cruelly nips the flowers
in the bud. There is no excuse for her
being allowed to run at large through
our streets, and she will soon find that
she has made a missteak. We have a
city pound, where all stray cattle belong.

From reports given of the educational
meeting at Antelope it must have been
an exceptionally interesting as well as
profitable one. The proceedings were too
lengthy to give detailed account of them,
but the resolutions, which were adopted
are too important' to be overlooked.
They are as follows v.
1st. The financial year should be
made to conform to the school year and
end about the first Monday in July.
2d. It should be made more difficult
to obtain state papers and the fees
charged for granting same should be re
duced one half, and said reduced fees
should all go to the county institute
'fund with the fees for county certificates.
3d. With fewer state papers, second
and nrst grade county certificates should
be re-issued as the result of regular ex
aminations. 4th. Teachers should be required to
attend the county institute at least five
days, and if during school terms, be al
lowed full pay for the time.
5th. The state board of education
should be authorized to prepare a course
of study for rural schools.
6ih. Th members of the state board
ot examiners should be' paid for their
services, and should meet after each ex
amination, and grade the work of all
applicants for state papers.
7th. The enumeration for the pur
pose of drawing school money should
be changed from 4 to 20 years, as at
present, to from 6 to 20 yt-ars inclusive
-to conform with th"e agea for free school
attendance.'
8th. .Xhe term of the county superin
tendent Ehould be increased from two to
four years, and only persons holding
valid first grade county certificates (or
better) and having taught tcbool at
least eighteen months in Oregon should
be eligible to the office.
9th. Qualifications for voterB at
school meetings - and elections should
be uniform for districts having less than
4.000 population (those diftrtcts having
only, three directore) and should include
tax payers and parents having children
to educate.
10th. The law should clearly give to
each district the power t decide whether
or not' high school studies should be
taught in addition to the common
branches.
lltb. The two present normal schools
maintained at state expenses are amply
sufficient for educational needs of Ore
gon for ten years in the future.
12th. The minimum school term for
drawing pnblic funds should be in
creased from three to four months.

A Sore Sign of Croup.
Hoareeness in a child that is subject
to crcup is a sure indication of the ap- .
proach of the disease. If Chamberlain's
Coogh Remedy is given as soon as' the
child becomes hoarse, or even after the
croupy cough has appeared, it will pre
vent the attack. Many , mothers who
have croupy children always keep this
remedy at hand and find that it eaves
them much trouble and worry. It can
always be depended upon and ia pleasant
to take. For eale by Blakeley & Hough
