The committee respectfully rec
ommends that the precinct primar-
g ies for the election of delegates to
said county convention be held on
Saturday, March 17, 1888.
W. L. B radshaw ,
Chairman.
The following is the call which
has been issued for the national
democratic convention: “The na
tional democratic committee having
met in the city of Washington on
the 22d_dai_of_Feteuarj^_1888JtjM.
appointed Tuesday, the 5th day of
June next, at noon, as the
time, and chosen the city of St.
I^uis as the place for holding the
national , democratic convention.
Each state is entitled to representa
tionJHerein equal to double the
number of its senators and reprer
sentatives in the congress of the
United States, and each territory
and the District of Columbia’shall
have two delegates. All democratic,
conservative citizens of the United
States, irrespective of past political
associations and differences, who
can unite with us in an effort for
•pure, economical and constitutional
government, are cordially invited to
join us in sending delegates to the
convention.”
<
When Gov. Pennoyerstumped the
state, previous to the last state
election, in his speeches he made a
special point of promising to aid
the people of eastern Oregon in hav
ing the Columbia river opened to
the sea, if possible, by state aid.
Now there is $500,000 coming to
the state from the government for
claims paid by the state during the
Indian war in jSistern Oregon. If
the joint lease is signed and the
railroads continued their arbitrary
discrimination against Portland,
and eastern Oregon in particular,
the Mercury thinks that it would be
a wise move forTDe governor to ful
fill his promises, made at election
time, and, if need be, call à special
session of the legislature and have
the money appropriated for opening
up the Columbia at the Cascades
and The Dalles.— Antorian.
Robt. Clow, superintendent of the
penitentiary, has been removed,
and George S. Downing "appointed
in his stead. The charges against
Mr. Clow are that he worked “trus
tees” on his farm in Polk county
and did not give proper credit for
said labor.
The Toledo Blade very properly
suggests to the democratic national
convention that jt t should have its
tariff plank written in volapuk.—
Sentry.
,
Blaine’s letter was evidently
written in volapuk, as no one seems
Ao understand just how to take it.
LAFAYETTE PUBLIC SCHOOL.
M ak »
7, 1888.
The examinations were held last
week for the winter torn with the moot
satisfactory results we have yet had, as
the sets of questions were much more
difficult than heretofore. We have come
over to congratulate ourselves on account
of having the good will of parents, guard
ians, and friends of the school. When
ever we have had an entertainment we
have been always greeted by a fine
audience, who have aided us to purchase
many things we could not otherwise have
dorè. We now have a library, an excel
lent globe, maps, charts, chairs, teacher’s
desk, fractional apple, grammatical tree,-
rooms decorated with mottoes, thermom
eters, amusements for long noons and re
cesses in stormy weather, rolls of honors
framed, report certificates and school di
plomas, Webster’s Unabridged, (new
pdition), Excelsior School System, two
dozen fine singing books—such as used
in the Portland high school, and an excel
lent Seth Thomas eight-day clock.
Funds were voted last'year sufficient to
run a nine-month’s school, purchase
enough Fashion desks to partially reseat,
and several large cain-seated chairs
extra. At the school meeting on last
Monday, a tax was voted sufficient to run
a nine-month’s school again next year,
purchase more desks if necessary, and
Fashion recitation seats. Fine curtains
on rollers were also put up last year.
•One of tho most commendable steps taken
¡A the Tecent school meeting was that to
furnish a new room for the primary
pupils, who need the best room in any
school building. It was without even
discussion, talked on, voted upon and
carried unanimously, that the board
furnish the necessary room, and, the
probability is, a new two-story building
will be done the coming summer. The
building has been inadequate, entirely,
for the number of pupils enrolled this
year, and another teacher has been very
much needed.
The spring term began Monday, Marcii
5th and will close, after the examinations,
with the presentation of certificates and
diplomas of scholarship, interspersed
with appropriate gesture, on the evening
of May 28, 1888.
