After all the fuss bud feathers
last winter, and the exploitation of
a scandal in the public service, a
legislative examination, and the dis
charge of several innocent parties,
the great fact comes to light that
there wa? nothing in it, says the Sa
lem Journal. In what? Well, the
modist reparter doesn't like to tell,
but it has leaked out that the ter
rible calamity that was reported
from the penitentiary last winter
tiflcftr hawDened. In short, the
woman prisoner, Mrs. Carlisle, who
basely slandered herself to the detri
ment of several male officials last
winter now stands a living witness
against herself as having, as it
were, obtained goods under false
pretenses. In short, her reported
condition at that time is now proven
almost beyond a doubt to have been
a fake, a ruse, a bold sppeme ror
liberty.

Mr. J. Frf d Yates in discussing "Dan
ger Signals," said many young people
only think of massing wealth. They
strive and toil to accomplish this desire
when by so doing they fail to observe
and to enjoy the beauties of life every
where surrounding them. He urged all
tp secure at any cost a good common
school education and then press on until
a college education is secured. He in
sisted that an education waa the birth
right of every American citizen; that
American methods, manners and cus
toms were encircling the globe. His ad
dress was full of inspiration, good
thoughts and excellent suggestions for
the rising generation. '
Miss Foshay in discussing, "Does the
state coarse of study meet the condi
tions of coantry schools?" thought tfiat
it did not. She pointed out the many a
stances to support this. She thought
the pupils should be better sight readers j
and should learn how to study. Sop't
Den man, while admitting that the state
course did not meet every requirement,
said it was doing a preat work in eystem
izing the work, thereby elevating the
work of " country schools. He . thought
that irregular attendance, short term of
school, multiplicity of recitations, lack
of familiarity on part of many teacheis
and lack of- support from districts boards
was to blame in a great measure tor
some of the troubles arising. . ; ;
''Should the child be encouraged to tell
tales but of school ?'' brought out a warm
discussion and a diversity of - ideas.
Mrs. DuMullin thought parents should
know what is going on in school. The
quiet talks between child and parent
were indeed beneficial. Miss Mary Dun
lap thought it a dangerous thing to he
permitted. " Pupils are apt to tell the
story in an entirely different light from
which it occurred. Parents should visit
school and investigate for themselves.
Mr. L. N. Edwards read a fine. paper
which received the-uu07?ement of all
who heard it, Mr. H. T. Bristow
thought children should be encouraged
to tell what impressed them in school
Let little things pass unnoticed, but give
attention to important things; .Mr. M,
M. Waltz, W. Belknap an4 Rev. Skid
more joined in the discussien.
"Our duty when trouble arises ia the
scboI,,r was introduced by ' Mr. J. H.
Edwards. He said "Be sure a thingps
worthy of attention before acting;' hear
the story from child but be sure and hold
your . peace.'' Have a talk with the
teacher as soon as possible.. Try to pre
vent trouble before it comes. Mr. Earl
Brown said, if corporal punishment is
necessary be ' sure and use the hazel.
In so doing he Aim and deliberate, im
pressing the child that the punishment
ii enly for his good. Enforce the laws,
and rules concerning the same; impress
the unruly parent .with the good work
her child is doing and endeavor to show
her that he excells his fellow pupil.
Rsbert Kyle said, the parent should
stand by teacher first, last and always.
First know your duty, tbeu have back
bone enough to act. Wilbur Starr said,
first train the child at home. .Impress
the child with the idea that the teacher
is in place of the parent. Proper train
ing at home will do "much to help the
teacher in her troubles. When trouble
arises, enforce the laws and rules govern-,
ing same. , ;
Mr. M. M- Waltz in discussing "Duty
of state to ' common schools," thought
the state should be more loyal to the
common schools. - While he did not op
pose higher institutions of learning re
ceiving state'help, yet tLis should not be
done to the sacrifice and injury of com.
mon schools. . He showed by figures the
comparative help that each received
from the state. No tax is .paid' that
effects the welfare c-L the home more
than than that of school. The wonder
ful spreading of American industries in
foreign lands was due to universal edu
cation. The crying need of the hour is
better provisions for schools, better sal
aries for teachers. The law should make
a belief iu God a requirement to secur
ing a certificate..
The subject VWhat Ihould the school
do for our gitls?". Was ably presented by
two excellent paper. Mrs. E. H. Bel
lman said if a na ion ia to become irreat. it
must av grea w.men, great mothers.
Te ch-irs thould dj iu rvery way compe-
tent. Our girls' need a teacher who is
strong mentally and morally. Mrs.
Silas O. Starr thought the girls should
be kept little girls as long as possible.
Character formation ia an important
mission of theschool. If the . teacher
desires to influence the little girl she
must love her; lead her on with lore
and sympathy.

The dtv council met i social
sbssion Tuesday evening to con
sider somi anjendments to the
specifications' wilich will be suo
mitted to bidders for a water
plant franchise from the city, and
to give attention to the matter of
the city's light system. These
changes were made in the specifi
cations, a summary of which has
heretofore appeared in the Ga
zette:' s
The franchise will be granted
for a term of. 50 years if water is
supplied from Rock -creek; if
from any other source, the fran
chise will be limited to 25 years.
Water must be soft.
A pressure of at least 20 pounds
per square inch shall be main
tained on the, first floor at all
faucets for private use. Ori
ginally, but 15 pounds pressure
was required.
The clause stipulating that a
pressure must be maintained dur
ing fires sufficient to throw
streams a height - of 75 feet from
three different-i openings at one
time from any part of the mains,
has been amended to read : At
any point between First and
Eighth streets, and Washington
and Van Buren streets, inclusive.
Outside of that district, . one
stream will be required from a
single hydrant and two streams
from a double . hydrant. The
council reserves the right to say
whether hydrants, hereafter put
in, shall be single or double.
A committee of two was ap
pointed to ascertain the city's
needs with regard to a light
plant . "

was to give the local members an
opportunity of witnessing the
ritualistic work in all its beauty
and detail. The Corvallis team
has the reputation of being one
of the finest in the state, and its
floor work was a revelation a
rich treat and highly appreciat
