Evening Telegram. James Steel, of Portland, is to be Oregon's new State Bank Examiner. His appointment was announced yes terday, to take effect May 25. The office carries a salary of (3000 a year and expenses. Mr. Steel is a brother of State Treasurer George A. Steel and has spent the greater part of his life in the banking business. It now seems certain that the whole Normal School question will be passed up to the voters through the initia tive. This is the course that should have been pursued two years ago instead of invoking the referendum on the appropriation bills The people of Oregon will take their Normal school system out of politics when they once get a chance to vote on the question of which schools shall be re tained and which abolished.

Benson, close their stores at 6 o clock in tee evening. The early closing rule has been In force aboot three weeks and is already highly unpopular, especially among the farmers, mill workers and other Ut-ori eg classes. As the days continue to lengthen, the movement will grow less in favor, as 6 o'clock in the lorsg summer days will seem about like the middle of the afternoon. Even now, it seems strange to see business practically suspended and the streets quiet in broad daylight The Obsebvu. believes that this o'clock rule, if persisted in, will work incalculable injury to the business interest of Dallas, as it will tend to divert the farmers trade to surround ing towffs. The season of the year is approaching, in fact, is already here, when every daylight hour is of Talue to the farmer and laborer, and these men cannot be expected to quit their work and go to the stores to purchase thir daily food supplies. The truth is, tbey simply will oot do it so long as they can make their purchases elsewhere after their day's work is over. Six o'clock in the quiet winter months is not an unreasonable clos in? hour, although in stores and. shops where the necessities of life are sold, eight o'clock would be better. But in the busy summer days, there is no good reason why the doors of these business houses should be closed in practically the middle of the after noon. The Obskkvek hopes that the grocery merchants of Dallas will take these remarks in the spirit in which they are offered and reconsider their early clos ing agreement Eight o'clock closing in the summer and seven in the winter would work no hardship on either the proprietors or the clerks, and would be greatly appreciated by the buying public.

Dr. The County Court is considering the advisability of having the timber lands of western Polk county cruised for tne purpose of arriving at a more equitable valuation for assessment, Since some of these claims are worth much more than others, there is no good reason why all should he as seased at the same figure. The only fair and equitable method of assess roent would be to ascertain the exact amount of timber on each claim and make the valuation accordingly. It is believed that the county would gain enough additional taxes the first year under this plan to pay the expense of cruising the timber. Stats cr Ohio, Cmr o Toledo, Lccas C'ofsmr. I Panne J.
