GOOD SHOES CHEAP
FIRST WOOL CLIP
CUNNINGHAM SHEARED
THREE THOUSAND BUCKS.
Early Shearing Is Becoming Popular
for Several Reasons Especially
Advisable on Account of the Vigor
and Better Health Transmitted to
the Spring Lambs Greatest Re
sponsibility is That of Affording
Sufficient Good Shelter.
Tho first of tho wool harvest Is in
sight, and In a short time tho clip
will be coming Into the warehouses.
Charles Cunningham has begun to
shear his sheep, nnd has already fin
ished a flock of 3,000 blooded Meri
no bucks near his Pilot Rock ranch.
Ho is now at work on tho owes, and
will shear all, or nearly all of them
at this time.
Mr. Cunningham has followed the
custom for soveral years of shearing
most of his sheep at this time of the
year. The fleeces on tho bucks are
now beginning to be heavy for them
to carry, and the wool Is getting ro
long that the sheep begin to have
trouble to see. It has been found
that the sheep do better if relieved
of the load of fleece and especially Is
this true in the case of the bucks,
which are strong and well able to
stand the loss of their wool this
early In the year.
With the ewes It is also well to
shear this early, and relieve them of

the load before tho lambing season.
All of tho owes' aro now hcglnnlng
to become heavy with young, and
this, In addition to tho heavy
fleeces they aro carrying. Is hard tin
them. It has been found that If
they have a warm place to stay for
the first fow days after being shear
ed until they have become used to
tho change, they do much bettor
without their coats than with them.
They do not havo tho long wool to
carry, and pick up In flesh nnd
strength.
In another way It has been found
by the sheepman who studies tho
question that tho system of early
shearing is a good thing, nnd that
Is In the good to tho lamb. All of
the extra strength that tho owe can
gain after having been sheared is
given to tho young, either born or
unborn, and tho result Is stronger
lambs and larger.
In the early shearing tho condition
of tho sheep Is taken Into account,
and those which are cot strong
enough to stand tho sudden change
from the warmth of tho heavy llceco
to tho cold of tho first fow days af
ter shearing, aro left until later In
the season, when the warm days f
spring havo come, and there Is nn
danger of taking cold. But tho plan
has been found to bo a good one
and will bo more generally adopted
than it is at present. As soon as all
of tho early shearing has been fin
ished, Mr. Cunningham will haul the
clip to the warehouses, where It will
bo held until tho spring wool sales

UNUSUAL I88UE MADE
CONCERNING TEACHERS.
Question of Legal Eligibility to Hold
Their Positions Relations of
Diplomas, Certificates 'and Per
mits to the Requirements of the
Law Made and Provided.
Tho school board hold a special
meeting last night at which time tho
teacher muddlo was gone over and a
now phaso sprung. It would seem
from an opinion of tho attorney-general
that thoro aro two teachers m
tho high school who aVo not legally
nblo to hold tholr positions. Tho
law provides that tho (teachers of a
high school shall be graduates of
tho normnl schools of tho state of
some collegiate school or universi
ty or shall havo a qtato certificate
or diploma.
Miss Dewoy, tho principal at tho
high school who has roccntly come
from tho East to take tho place Is
a graduato of a college, but It Is out
of this state anil she has no certi
ficate or diploma from this state.
Whether or not this will disqualify
her Is not known to tho board, but
It is thought thnt a pormtt can to
granted to her until such time as
sho enn comply with tho technicali
ty of the law.
Roy Conklln on tho other hnnd, !s
mnro up against It. Ho Js not tho
graduate of an Institution and has
no state papers. What tho action of
the board will bo In tho mattor will
bo determined by the answer which
Is returned by State Superintendent
Ackormnn. A letter wns sont to tho
department this morning asking for
advice by tho hoard and Its answer
will bo awaited with interest.
It was decided by tho board at tho
meeting last night that If Mr. I.e
Masters, the head of tho Sloyd work
In the high school would take a pri
vate examination which County Su
perintendent Nowlln has promised
to give him, that his work would bo
continued, otherwise tho Sloyd do
pratmcnt would bo dropped for tho
rest of tho year.

8UICIDE UNNERVE8 INDIANS.
They Cannot Understand Why a

While In Sound Mind.
Paul Show-away, tho well known
Umatilla Indian, In talking of tbo
Btilcldo of Jim Joshua yesterday ovo
nlng, says that a nulcldo unnerves
tho Indians.
Thoy can understand how a man
can die of dlseaso or old ago, and
how ho can bo killed by another tr
by accident, but by what mystorlouB
Incantation a man can bo induccu o
tako his own life, thoy cannot undor
utand nor reconcllo with nay of tholr
rules of reasoning.
It has a grnwsomo and unnatural
surrounding which causos thom to
distrust ovcrybody nnd everything,
Thoy naturally think somo porson
has exorcised unduo powor ovor tho
