The quarterly report of Superin
tendent J. D. Lee of the peniten
tiary gives the number of convicts
as 302, ru increase of ten for the
quarter.
The Oregon Tituberman for
January comes to our table this
week with sixty-eight pages of de
scriptive reading about the great
timber interests of the state and is
highly illustrated. It is indeed a
fine publication and deserves a
wide circulation.

Secretary F.J. Hard of the Ore
gon Mining Stock Exchange, who
intimated his intention of resigning
the office of secretary some time
since, will not be permitted to exe
cute his plans. A storm of protest
has been raised by the brokers do
ing business on the floor of the ex
change, and a determined effort
will be made to get Mr. Hard to
reconsider his intentions. He is
the right man in the right place
and should by all means be kept in
the position.
After many days of successful en
deavor and crowned with ample
success, the friend of the prospector,
mining engineer, promoter of mines
and mining, capable mining man
and thorough gentleman, George
W. Lloyd, is back again from "bis
eastern tour and habilitated with
that which makes the wheel turn
Tound. He has gone to Bohemia
and will let a contract for extend
ing the tunnel of the Gold Cross
100 feet. Other material things
which interest us all is best given
in his own voicement: "The Bo

money in the treasury to develop
their property extensively during
The officers of

the company have cone over all the
details of their property, and have
decided to put in concentrating
works as soon as the railroad is
completed, not to cost less than
$50,000. As soon as spring opens
it is the intention to let a 350 foot
contract in extention of the Boston
tunnel, it now being in over 400
feet."

Evening Telegram.
George V. Lloyd of Cottage
Grove, president of the Crystal
Consolidated Mininpr Company,
was a visitor at the Oregon Mining
Exchange this tnornintr. having
just returned from Boston, where
he spent two months:
"Eastern people are beginning to
think well of Oregon mines as an
investment." said Mr. Lloyd this
morning, "especially as they real
ize that most of the mines in this
state are tunneling propositions
They are afraid of sinking
properties, both by reason of the
expense of mining and overcoming
the water difficulty. There are
mines in Colorado that spent $i,
000,000 pumpiug water alone,
Gold mines are in strongest de
mand. This is due to the fact that
gold values remain unchanged
Gold is not looked upon as a com
modity of fluctuating value as is
copper, silver or the other metals.
I look for large eastern investments
in Oregon mines during the next
few years, and believe I am safe in
the prediction that in 10 years Ore
gon will be ahead of Colorado as a
miniug state."
The meeting on Saturday Inst to
reconsider the action taken two
weeks previous, by which our pub
lic school was closed for lack of
funds, was largely attended, bring
ing out in force the friends of edu
cation and progress, I. lie scnooi
was closed on a refusal to raise a
five mill tax by a, vote of 61 to 22.
It was opened by a vote of 152 to
44.
When the meeting was called to
order it was addressed by W. M.
Miller, county superintendent of
public instruction. He went into
a detailed explanation of the dis
position of school monies for this
year, and clearly showed that the
board of school directors had not
been in reedpt of the amount of
money that many of our taxpayers
were under the impression the
board had at its disposal, conse
quently there could not have been
a waste or leakage of money
through the board. All the money
handled by the boart was accounted
for and the great trouble was that
not a sufficient amount had come
into the hands of the board to main
tain the actual and necessary ex
penses of the school for a full nine
month's term.
The sicht of over two hundred
children with bright and smiling
faces eoing to school on Monday
morning redeemed Cottage Grove
for the dark anil ominous cloud
that hung over it for the two pre
vious weeks. At no time in the
history of this town could the clog
ging of the wheels of progress been
so disastrous in the closing of our
school as just now, Hundreds of
families are looking to this section
for settlement and homes and the
lack of school facilities would surely
divert them to other localities, for
the first thought of the wise and
loving parent is the education of
the child, and this thouRht is not
confined to the educated parent
alone: it is equally shared by the
illiterate one. for that one tnort
than all others realizes how badly
he has been handicapped in
the life struggle by not having had
the benefits of the schoolroom.
Now that this school is once
again in active operation the ear
nest, energetic and progressive
workers who are striving night and
day to build up this commonwealth
and make it what it can and will be
can look the stranger again in the
face and say with pride: Yes, sir,
we have a school and a good one.
and we invite you and your family
to come among us.

Dispatches from London say
Miss Portia Knight ol Snlcm has
been paid by the Duke of Man
chester 1000 pounds or $5000 and
all legnl expenses incurred up to
the day of settlement for keeping
her breach of promise suit out of
court. Her father, Col. N. U.
Knight, was employed by Secretary
or State Kincaid in 1897 to defend
him in the Supreme Court in the
tnaudainas suits brought to compel
him to issue warrants to pay claims
for which the Legislature had not
appropriated any money. He re
ceived a certificate of 300 for his
services. Soon afterwards he be
came verv anxious to nave a war
rant issued so he could sell it for
cash, explaining that he must have
money to send to his daughter,
then in the east. After repeated
failures to have his persistent and
urgent requests complied with, it
was reported that he sold tne cer
tificate at a very heavy discount.
He is now in London helping his
daughter worry the duke, and if
the telegraph tells the truth they
have done him up in great shape.
Mr. Zimmerman, the Cincinnati
brewer, whose daughter the duke
married, is no doubt finding out
that dukes, with all sorts of debts
and breach of promise suits and
other old things hanging over them
to be liquidated, are expensive
luxuries. Men who sell their
1 nncr liters to worthless metl of
a
worthless titles usually get their
medicine sooner or later and per-
the sooner the better. State
