CLARKE AND WIFE HONORED Thinks Present Constitution Good Enough for Them State Master’s Rejfort Not Satisfactory to Grange. Friendsand Relatives Gather Around Festive Board to Celebrate Their Fiftieth Wedding Anniversary. Birds-eye View of Mt. Scott Park Cemetery, Recently Opened Ruckwood Grange bn* vot««l unani mously against (be proponed amend ment« to the constitution of the Oregon State (»range. The »object *»« thor oughly debated and it *«' decided that there wa> no reason in exacting a larger per capital tax, becaua«» there 1» a constantly growing surplus in the State Grange treasury and that the increas ing number of sulairdmste grange* will ■till further increase that »urn; beside«, if the State Grange is relieved of the bunion of imying the per diem of dele gates it would not nee»! as much money as it n<<w receives. The custom of electing the same per son as Master over and over again was used as a factor in voting against the proposed method of choosing delegates, ami it was shown that no city but Port land could hold a full delegation if all the granges should happen to be repre sentcd, which is very unlikely, however, because it it feared that manipulaSioua by interested persons would take the meeting a of the State I irange to isolat ed parts of the state on certain occas ion«. thus making the trip prohibitive to many of the granges which could not afford the expense. There was some dissatisfaction ex pressed because the State Grunge gets no revenue, as far as known, from the balanc«M in .th hands of its State Treasurer, other orders get interest on balances ami an increased amount would only give the treasurer that much more to use year in and year out without interest The State Master's financial state ment in the Bulletin was far from being satisfactory, as he used one item of fU'O twice ami failed to mention the yearly revenue of about $7iM*> now coming in and which would be increased alsiut L’n per cent under the promised new law While the present law is not all that is to tie desired, it was considered that it is la tter that the one now being voted on, as it was shown that each grange may now increase its dues if it wants to. also, that there wouki be no relief to counties with an equal grange imputation, but with a leas number of granges. Thus Multnomah county with ten granges now has six delegates, while Clackamas county, w ith nineteen granges, has ten delegates. Both have almost the same nundier of grange memliers and the new law would give Multnomah ZOdelegates and Clackamas :W. It was contended that the repre sentation should he on a numerical basis, ■o that laith counties would be repre sented alike. Rockwood Grange is just ns "pro gressive' ' as anv of them, but it also claims to have intelligence enough to be wide awake. SYCAMORE SCHOOL HAS STORMY IIMf Assailt and Battery Com- plafat Filed Against ’Teacher. Charging that the teacher. Miss «label Stevens used violence against thoir daughter. Mr. and Mrs. Tannler have filed a complaint in the Justice court against her. The trouble arose in district 15 joint, at Pleasant Valley. It in said that three teachers have had trouble in en forcing discipline in this school and that the trouble with the little Tannler girl is the outcome of this teachers efforts and determination to secure discipline. The girl whois 15 yearsold, had been told by the teacher to remain after school. This the child would not do, and the teacher then held her against the wall until the other pupils hail passed out into the yard. When the child went home she complained bitterly of her treatment and parent-like they took it up with the result of the charge, which however was dismissed.
