Brower, district attorney lor Klamath county , In a letter re el?ed by GoTernor ; Olcott from R. H. Bunnell, county Judge of tnat coanty, and the two county commissioners. Barrel! Short and Asa Fordyce. . , -- 1' ,?; Brower recently wrote letter to the roTernor complaining: that the young peoptle of his commun ity were In danger of being led astray through negligence of the properly constituted officers to enforce the law. The governor, in a. reply, reminded the district at torney, that the responsibility of law enforcement was largely on bla own shoulders. .' The letter received from the county Judge and commissioners Mrs that any assistance the gov ernor can give in causing the of fice of district attorney; at Klam ath Falls to be vacated without obliging the taxpayers to go to the expense of a recall will be appre ciated. The letter follows: The undersigned desire to compliment yon upon the position you hare taken regarding the statements made by. the district attorney of Klamath county, rela tive to the crime situation and his ability to cope with it. "We desire to add to what you may; already know, that the mat ter of crime in this coanty is 99 per tent purely petit, and that the officers, both municipal as well as county and state, at all times are doing all in their power to BOYS HAVE LEAD OFjWME Returns Are Received on February Check-up in Salem Public Schools There are Just 21 more boys attending the public schools in accomplish the arrest and convic- j Salem than girls, according to the tlon of malefactors with what co-' monthly report for the school operation they may obtain from ! month ending February 24.

In the third grade things are changed, as in this grade, the gins in me puuuc scnoois numucr 171 and the boys, 163. Girls are also in the majority in the fourth grade. The figures show that there are 143 girls and 133 boys registered in the fourth grade. Boys again take the lead in the fifth grade, as they number 185 while the girls number 156. In the sixth grade of all the public . schools in the city, girls are in the majority with a total of 152, compared to 137 boys. Girls outnumber the boys In the seventh grade, as they number 161 while the boys can muster up only 136. This includes all the seventh grade pupils in the city. In the eighth grade, in the junior high schools, girls number 166 and the boys 162. The ninth grade, known as the senior class of the junior high school, numbers 225 boys and 199 girls, a total of 424. This is the grade that will be clamoring for admission into the high school building next fall. It is of es pecial importance that next year, the sophomore class of the high school will be a class with boys largely In the majority, something quite unusual. All past records show that as the high ' school is reached, boys drop out and the girls greatly outnumber the boys. But for the month ending February 24, the sophomore class of the high school numbered 170 boys and 189 girls, giving the girls a ma Jority of 19. The junior class of the high school shows a falling off between the two years, as there are only 93 boys and 121 girls, who will be real seniors next year. There will be graduated from the public ' schools next June a class of 170, the largest class on record. Of this number, 69 are boys and 101 girls. It is probable that the high school building will face a serious proposition next fall, as while only 170 will be graduated this coming June, a class of more than 400 will come from the junior high schools, asking admittance to the high school as members of the sophomore class. As the high school building is now crowded to the limit, the problem is that of graduating 170 and crowding in more than 400, and this does not include many who will come from rural districts.
