Kay was lu Lebanon Monday, on his way to Salem, Mr. Kay informed us that theie was a muss meeting in Waterloo last Saturday evening, to consider tho proposition of digging a large water ditch, The ditch Is to be constructed by a stock company, and will cost In the neighborhood of $6,000. The Thos, Kay Woolen Mill company will be the chief stock-holders. County Surveyor Fisher spent four days at Waterloo last week, surveying different routes for this ditch. The length ef the ditch will be one mile and 200 feet, Instead of six miles, as hus been reported by several papers throughout the stute. The principal cost and trouble will be u ten-foot dum that will have to be constructed In the river or by putting in a fifteen-foot dum they will only have a few hun dred yards of ditch to build. The cltiisena of Waterloo are In earnest lu the matter, and Mr. Kay save he thinks the ditch will surely be J built. He savs that as soon as sufficient water power is assured, there will be I plenty ef frctor.es nady to use the power. Several persons have already spoken to him about coming to yvaienoo aou ouuuiug uuurmg uiiwn. sawmills, pinning mills, etc. ' in answer to a question concerning the railroad proposition, he said: "The railroad business is uot bothering me. As 1 have said befoie, us soon os we get something for a ruilroud to come here for, It will come. Some one will build it. It this present company don't, some one else wll). I predict that the year 1897 will be a bright and prosperous year for Wuterloo." The Legislature, The latest reports from the state leg islature state that nothing has yet been accomplished. Yesterday 10 seuators and 29 representatives met in joint convention, but nothing could be done towards electing Mitchell. The fact that only 10 senators met with the Benson bouse indicates that Mitchell lmh)g groHnd. In M probability his name is "Dennis." Groceries quality excellent prioes low at Bach & Buhl's. We Btill have bargains In shoes. The Teachers' Institute, r The program for the institute, us published In this puper lust week, was carried out. The program for Friday evening was in every way a success. The ex ercises opened with a song by a number of small school children. Although the little folks were somewhat timid, they did quite well. Prayer by. Rev. Harmon was followed by an address of welcome. Although our city mayor is not accustomed to public speaking, he proved himself equal to the occasion and gave a line address. Then fol lowed the response by County Super intendent Wheeler, who in a happy vein acknowledged, in behalf of the teachers, the hearty welcome and kind reception by the people of Lebanon, The public school octet, although suffering from the effects of la grippe, rendered a difficult piece of music in so pleasing a manner that they were re called, and responded by singing a plea ing medley. The recitations by the young lady and little miss were quite well ren dered. The main feature of the eveniug's exercises was the lecture by President H. B. Miller, of the State Agricultural college. His theme, "Industrial Edu cation," was one of interest to all, and was presented lu an able manner. The institute met at the public school building Saturday morning at 9:30, and was called to order by Supt. Wheeler. After the singing of "Amer ica," by the institute, a paper entitled "Teaching as a Profession" was read by Prof. Truelove. The paper showed careful thought and preparation. Af tei discussion by the lustitutc, the next on the program, "A Plea For the Dull Boy," was presented by Prof. 8. A. Raudle. It was indeed a plea for the slow but faithful pupil. The pro fessor set forth the importance of patience, tact and careful study of the characteristics of the individual. Space will not permit of a review of the two excellent papers. They were well re ceived by the institute and called forth many favorable comments. At 12 o'clock the institute adjourned to meet at 1:30. During the ufternoon session several motions and resolutions were offered, causing spirited discussions. On motion, the county superintend ent was requested to take such steps as he may deem expedient to organize a county teachers' institute to meet monthly during the school year. On motion, a committee of three (the county superintendent to be ex-otllcio chairman) was appointed to prepare a program and to select a place for the next meeting. Prof. Tyree, principal of the Albany public schools, and Prof. Baker, principal of the Lebanon public schools, were appointed on said com mittee. The attendance during both sessions was quite good. M. A. Miller, J.B. Thompson und other citizens were present and participated in the dis cussions, and all went away feeling that the first local institute for Leba non for the year 1897 was a success.
