Mr. Harris-said that the latest conservative estimate places, the yield for the state this year at between 3.0,000 and 40,090 r: bales while other place' the figure a high as 45.000 bales. The growerSj he raid, were pretty, hard hit this year, but Instead of belngmelancholyfand ilpondent over the matter, they are inclined to take a very philosophic ; view of the situation with & realization of "fewer hops, better-prices and are resolved to make the best of It. It has been stated that the crop in N4fw York ryas been "so heavily da.maged'iat the . growers Would rot pick a hop, but Mr. Jlarris'asserts positively Chat, ' on .the contrary, the growers will plciT every burr and every semblance of a burr for with only one-half 8f an average crop t : the home consumption win demand home product to- such a degree'-'that a fancy price is looked rorwara to oy the growersand not without good rea son.

'About o'clock last night the tele- i phon bell In the Statesman office rang and the party answering" the call was informed by a kind and thoughtful pa tron, that there' was a great reflection in th? northern sky and that no doubt the source of the reflection was a great conflagration possibly in the North Sa lem neighborhood. The machinery of newsgatherlng we at once set In mo tion with a determination to locate the supposed fire and to get the details upon the same so that the Statesman's informant. would be gratind with the particulars cencerningit at the break fast 'table this morning. Accordingly a glance at the telephone list of sub ficrlbers at hand . prompted the news detective the only clew in hand being th esuppositionr that the tire : was In North Salem district to have Dr. Ep ley's residence ' rung" up, he being a resident" of the central -portion of that neighborhood, which commsjmdfed a good view of the same, and a. very ac rommodayng personage, and after sev etal at-tempts'ort the part of "Centrat, Dr. Epl'V's voice, which, by the way. was as husky as himself upon this oc casion as though aroused from adeep ft lumber, sounded through the receiver and after the propef salutations; and in troduciFons Twere pafe'sedTBSivas lb formed thatr there - was A'flrsMn his neck of the woods and when asked for Its location he. remarked, between j yawns, "ru go see." A" moment or I two later he returned and said lh;tt as j rear as he was able to locate it, it was j near the Fair Grounds store. He va j thanked, of course, and bidden an af I iectlonate good night. - T i The next place tried was : the" Fair , . effort to secure , nmber; a prty happened along out that wa7 and stated that the nj.e was about three miles north of the pa!r Grounds. This call was aband oned then and the next was given for the home of T.' Fit Walker, a projjper- j ous an up-to-date farmer residing j 6bout ve miles from this city and a wideawake subscriber on the "Subur . , wt, ..rai rrnrt nnnn f i r!ri.i v tmrt h. hv the v. wm vnr Au.nmmn.liitt nr n.1 flji nersever- i ing as the searcher-for news, to rouse J Mr. Walker from a sound and refresh- J inr in nftr a. harrf ilav't work in the ' harvest field, but her efforts were ftn- S J ally crowned with success and Tom's" j j cheery, though -ery sleepy, voice rang J out, vjiello."; lie was likewise In- formed that there was a fire somewhere ' in his neighborhood and informatioii as It 'location and nature would be I gratefully received.

Sev eral moments elapfed before he return ed to take up the receiver, but when he did, he gave the startling Informa tion that the cause of all this trouble end worry was "a burning strawstack c n the Ike Dutbln place." , - The above "narrative illustrates two points very clearly, one ts, the valuable end InJisj-ensable ofRce- which the tel ephone fills in thl advanced stage of civilization, and the other, the great amount of trouble and expense in volved in running down an item of news and the tenacity of purpose which is adhered to securlnj5 .it.

I EDITORIALS; OF THE PEOPLE Why Salem Does Not Absor 1; . lutely Need a High School THE ; PRESENCE HERE OF WIL LAMETTE. UN IVERS IT Y MAKES IT THE DUTY OF SALEM. PEOPLE TO AID AND PATRONIZE THAT INSTITUTION. . (The Statesman - Is pleased to print communications upon topics of general interest.' at any time. There is scarcely any limit tof the topics of general In terest, It Is asked only that corres spondents refrain from personalities and use care that nothing be written of a libelous or unworthy or untruth ful nature.) " (From Saturday's Daily.) Editor Statesman: I wish not to en gage In controversy over the Salem schools, ihave no personal interest to serve Involved In the question, . and consider It only with reference to the community and the schools. Hit cannot be controverted ; that Salem has as good 5 a school . system and aaV good schools of their- degree,, as any in the state, and as good : as generally exist In other states. This, as far as they go.J They stop short of a high school. There are at - least two good reasons ; why they should do so. The district Is heav ily. In debt with Its consequent Interest chrge.' How It became so Is not per tinent to this discussion. It has a uni form S district: levy of sjm or eight irtills tax, in addition to the five mills county school tax. Portland has less than half perhaps not more than one third that levy. The city of Salem, which 'is comprised within ' the school district, has a uniform levy of ten mills, against Portland's six to eight mills, and our combined levies are . In - the neighborhood of forty mills, sometimes a fraction over. A four per cent tax Is a heavy if not a crushing burden. Not a few new comers have in the past and present been turned away from us by it, and not a- few will seek othef local ity on account of It. A high school can not be established and maintained without increased taxation. The higher grades create a proportionate 'expense. Hut a, very small proportion of the children go higher' than the grades of the common school. A small per cent only continue the higher course,- and the parents of such as do go arewith out ejcceptlon able to pay the added expense, and, with very rare exception, cheerfully do it. The Willamette Uni versity, fortunately -located ' ... in - our midst, like all our Colleges and normal schools, has an academic course to which all have access. It Is not only the privilege, but In a large sense the J duty y0t the town ; and V surrounding country to glyesupport to its Univerr eity. I Forced to compete with the num erous free state colleges. It is struggling for its very life. It is able to give better service than a high school can. Under lt3 new management it gives promise of new life and growth. It is & factor In local, life and business, affordina ma terial aid. standing; and character SALEM AND SURROUNDING. Where Do the? People Come In? Editor Statesman!: ' ' The "Note and Comment" man In the Oregonian rises to remark that If Gov ernor Geer could think of some way to boil down his Immense popular vote of nearly 45,000 for United States Senator Into a 'sufficient number to secure an Election In Joint eonventton, he would probably have the. pot ready for the '"1 at once, adding, however, that, his popular VOie IS to unsUDSianttai lor Inspissation. x , , It might be remarked, though, In TiasKing. that there are a srreat many old fashioned people yet left In Oregon who are watching to see what th few . who think they have the disposition of the Senatorshlp especially consigned j to their hand, will do with that vote, j ca. under one of the laws of the state. ?

Anent the "School Question." your correspondents would , have tos Infer that the defects of our public schools are suppled by the advantages of "Old Willamette. This may be right. One i mig-ht further infpr that, Willamette is t the only school of higher education for f-"aJ-m. This Is an error. An& if our aJ-m. public schools are working in the Inter- et cf our private Institutions of learn- In?. th?n let us not forget the Academy- of the S.icred Heart, ; eonducted'by the 1 lifters or the Jto.'v r ,imc. !

Those then, who would kep " the "public schools where they are in the Interest of the private schools will remember that the pres ence here ofv the Sacred lleart Acad emy makes It the duty of Salem people to patronize that Institution. . - OLD SALEM ITE. Sakm. Aug. 16, 19U2. i Favor . Improvement, Editor. Statesman: . " , Since r"Salem and Surrounding" brought, up the matter o? a high school fur Salemxln this morning's States man, I feel -that a friendly dlscussfon of some- of the points he mentions would not be out. of ' place and might prove interesting : to the many people in the school district who are anxious to have a high school established. -. Your correspondent states that Sa lem schools are as gpod as anylnthe state as far aslthey gov This is truf, but why should they not go Just 'as far as any In the state? Are the people going to be satisfied with public schools that do not go' as faf- as other schools in tne state uugnt iney to oe aaus- fled with "good as far aa they go. when the very best Is easily In reach - and can be had with small if any ad- ditional expense? ; Wjien most of the towns In Oregon, all .except Portland much smaller than Salem, are support Ing high schools, does it not seem strange that Salem cannot? . "Salem and Surroundings' urges that the presence of Willamette University makes a high! school unnecessary. The following cities of Oregon have schools or colleges doing the same " grade of work covered by the course of Will amette University, yet are doing high school work in their public schools Albany, 10 grades of public school work; Ashland, 11 grades. Eugene 12 grades; McMlnnville. 10 grades; Cor vallls, 10. grades: Nwberg, 11 grades and following cities nave gooa. acaa emies. while .they :a-e perfectly willing to support high schools: Pendleton, 12 grades; Portland, 13 grades; Astoria, 12 grades; Medford, 11 grades; Milton, 11 grades, and The Dalles, 11 grades of nuhtln Mfhrioi wmlc. We are told that Portland's MiliU( tax is very much less than the tax ai Salem, but ; since valuations are s& widely different, this does not show a true result. At Portland It costs .$28.03 tq. carry a pupil through a year of school. At Salem the cost is $19.26, or a .saving of ?S.77 for each pupil. This makes a saving of $11,839.50 in Salern over Portland Taking this Inf con? sideration .we And that the schools in Salem are. run much more economically than In Portland where we are told, the taxes are much legs. 4 )ft e, are( told., that only a ,imalh per cnt of pupils who enter school attend the, high school, and that the parents of this few are able to pay the expense of a higher education. . I am willing to admit that this is true, but It Is the large number who do not attend and whose parents are not. able to pay for secondary education that we want t reach by the high school. Following this reasoning thatOnly a small jer cent, enter the.high. school,: since only 4J 4:r vr-iii ui pupita woo enter icnutn get beyond the fourth grade, the fifth sixth and seventh and eighth grades frhould be dispensed with. No one would : for a" moment advocate the leaving out of these grades, and, why should the high school be omitted since It lst-admltted a nec-ssary part of the' comnion school course by the mot pro gressive people In the country. .
