MRS. HELEN LADD CORBETT. ; Mrs., Helen Ladd Corbett said: ; ' ""'.l' believe that there wUl,Te no diffi culty to carry i the election. for th free klhdergartens on Monday, If It be called to the attention of the people with suf ficient thoroughness, f I have fdund quite a number of the voters who do not know if the, general adoption of the kinder garten as a part of the public school systems in Eastern states, and tbat It need but be mentioned to receive support from some who have heretofore ,been in different. , This work ilt bringing it to the attention ot the people he been , under taken by the Free Kindergarten Asso ciation of Portland,, with some success. Many of the most influential eltlsens snd prominent taxpayers are openly favoring It, while none, so far as I know, are lending opposition to the project. "In the East there la now wesrcely no vestige of opposition to the , publicly maintained kindergarten, and wherever it has been incorporated into the public school systems It is retained without pro test from any source. As a matter ot fact, the public kindergarten; is now so generally a part ot the public school sys tem that It Is beyond th pale of de bate In the older communities of the East.J V "I Believe that it is time tor Portland to take this forward step. We have been somewhat too eonservatlve In this respect, and should accept this enterprise Inn onk f the several that 'must "be In-1 mw .r-c - m - j Ugvrated if Portland is other cities of the Pacific Coast are en- Joying. I hope that you will urge the free kindergarten Idea up to the time of ,the election." 3 JUDGE C. B. BELLINGER. Judge Charles B. Bellinger, ot the Fed eral Court Of this city, said: "You may. say that I am strongly Jn favor of the free k'ndergarten being made a part of the public school system, and that I hope that the people will. adopt It on Monday next at the election. It Is my purpose to go to the polls and vote for the enterprise, end r iruM thatThere will be no lack of supporters for the movement. Tt Is something that will make for the better development of the local educational system, and bears possibili ties that are greater for good than the average person realizes. By all means, let the people support the free kinder garten lde at the polls, and let them add It to the publicly maintained schools of the city." ' W. R. MACKENZIE. . 'The Portland Free Kindergarten' As sociation was organized about 16 years ago, and until last year they have main tained ' free kindergartens In Portland from funds received- from public-spirited eltlsens. The association has kept up this work without Intermission until the present time, Most of the credit for' the management and continuing the Work is due to Mrs. Burrell. Mrs, Ladd and Mrs. Corbett, who have always beerr willing to see the work maintained by. their In dividual gifts. ' , "A year ago this association received $5000 from the School Board and im mediately opened new schools and branched out in portions of this city, where there seemed to be a': need ot kindergartens. This fund la now e, hausted. .-. "On account of the growth of the city the time has now come when more Schools should be organised, and greater facilities given to the schools now In 'Operation, and this, in my judgment, should ot be done by charity, nor by askvtnt these public-spirited women for donations any more; than to ask them; to payor the support of the publlo schools) The .Kindergarten Association hat therefore decidedf to submit the question fat this time to the .taxpayers ot Multnomah CoUntjft as to whether or not ; these kindergarten schools should become a part of the public school system and with this in view we have been trying by newspaper articles' and literature " to make It clear to the taxpayers so thatl they will know the exact facts in rela tion to kindergartens in this city snd In other progressive cities ot our country. I have great hopes that on Monday this proposition will be' carried by a large majority, and that Portland Will advance along this line as other American cities are doing." - . - .-.?- ,t ' An Irring Story. ; A would-be actor, on applying to Sir Henry Irving for an engagement, said that he had played with Sir Henry in "Hamlet." Sir Henry failed to recall the man's face, and Inquired for, what part he was cast. "I was the cock - that crowed three times behind the " soenes, and you were pleased to compliment me highly upon my performance of the'role." Well,", said Sir Henry,' "I am .sorry I cannot offer you an engagement at pres ent, but I have a new play in -which I might place you when I put It In-rehearsal. The part Is that of an ass-dd you think you can bray as naturellyyts yon, can crowT" "Certainly, Sir Henry, without doubt" 80 the kindly tragedian dismissed him with a smile and a sover eign. t-V " , "Beating Down" Addition table ' It. was only another exemplification of th old adage, "Bred' in ' th bono.

Saturday, June 14, the new UnlonPlan lng Mill of the' Frank Schmltt Company, corner . Kajt Salmon and East Eighth streets, will be thrown open for public Inspection. " Frank M. Schmltt, the manager of the company, When scn yesterday, said: "Oup mill was put in operation Monday solely for the, purpose of easing up the machinery and smoothing the bearings. You canuot put up a planing mill and then start forH, at qrioa. The machinery has to be tested, first. , , v t r ' The hlllf "wlti open for .permanent workMond'a June' 21, about 30 fnen and boys elng engaged to start with.

I think we will have all the work we can handle the moment we stai upi . "Our mill Is modern in every respect. The entire building will be piped through out for the purpose of conveying the sawdust. and shavings out of the build-' lug. We will employ none buTthe most expert' men. 4 "Speaking of the lumber proposition, we can get all of It we want. Mr. Pout sen, of the firm ot laman St. Poulsen, was lh to see us yesterday, and he said that h .would sell us alt the lumber we wanted. He said that the people were mistaken when they thought that the muiS had placed a boycott on the union men. Mr. Poulsen says that It Is abso lutely false. The only agreement that they reached we that they would refuse to rell any goods to the small contractors unless they paid in advance." The new mill as It stands at present represent an. expenditure of about $26,000. A 100 horse-power boiler Is located In a brick building adjoining the main build ing. The machinery Is run with an 80 horsepower engine. Only -union men will be employed at the new mill, the mana gers conceding the union demand for the nine-hour day. Promising Salmon Market. Under the head, "Oregon Salmon In Germany," United States Consul Mon aghan at Chemnlts, Germany, has the following: ) "During a recent conversation with a hoter proprietor of "this city, I learned that Oregon salmon was sold in Germany to a very limited extent This gentleman believes that a large business can be done in this particular fish. If special attention is given to" transportation. He said he had eaten the fish in Magdeburg and Hanover, and found it "delicious. In quiries as to price showed that, Oregon flalmbn could be bought for 1.1 marks (28 cents, while German salmon costs at tthe presnt time 5 marks: fr.v about L25) per pound. He alsco stated tbat the fish were frozen in Oregon and shipped in this frozen state to Europe. . It Is claimed that If thawed In cold water and then cooked, the i1.h retains Its flavor. '"'"If the above 1 correct, there can be no doubt f that this empire' would make a very good market a there la hardly any fish worth eating that can be had for less than 40 cents per pound. The packers of Oregon, salmon , should look Into this matter. A distributing house could be establlshedd In " Hamburg or Bremen which would attend to the ship ping of the the fish to, th Inland German cities and towns." Railroad Contract Let. It Is not yet known to whom will be awarded the contract for the Rlparla Lewlston line.
