THE OFFICIAL PAPER OF GILLIAM
COCNTY. OREGON.
OOVO SCHOOLS
It is matter of profound gratHfeatfon
to Ihe penjile of Eastorn Orejrnn thirt
B-iiu mvtiftl luks just Iwea. awartlrd to one
ol her piibU -IhmK ) iimj Ootnmis
imJM it the OhiaIia Tmn-Mimiipl
JMpoaiUoa r lUo best eilneational dis
play iiMute t greitl show, Ksliibks
were marlc by wHiooW from nil over the
United Siites. ami after a thorough ohu
ass of theut nil, tUe judge taave dotmled
thai Baker City Oregon is entitled to the
iBtsilal for general escellenee.
Blter City people iuwy well be proud
d this high honor and while the people
of the entire state wilt feel proud of
Baker's triumph, the rest of us should
ot stop there but. a far as possible, em
uUte her eauple and eudeavor to make
our schools as much like her as we
can.
une toe best rntenons by which to
judge a people is by the high or low
standard of their educational institu
tions and while trie Trans-Mississippi
Commissioners have declared that Eas
tern Oregon has cue public school that
U the best in the United States it is a
matter of regret to many of us to know
that we have many other similar insti
tutions which are not the best.
Baker City people will doubt lees con
tinue to strive after new excellencies in
their schools even though they now
stand at tlie head of the class; how
much more then should those of us who
have schools that are inferior to theirs,
feuive to improve the standard of ours.
e can all help in this work; teachers,
parents, pupils, directors, press and
pulpit, but the people who vote
and pay the school tax have the
matter largely in their bands, and when
ever a liberal policy prevails at the an
nual school meeting we may expect to
oe the schools begin to forge ahead a
Jong the path to success which has been
so Driiiiantly blazed by our neighbors of
facer wiy.

A circumstance illustrative of the re
marable fortitude of Claude Branton bas
been given out by Deputy Sheriff Day.
Before going on the scaffold, Day told
Branton that when the noose was ad
justed he should incline his head to the
siue where the knot was, as that would
make the result more certain. After
the black cap was adjusted. Branton
leaned over to Mr. Day and asked him
which way to lean his head. He was
. told to the left. He immediatly stood
erect aud inclined his head in that manner.
