LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWS Itemized Account of Doings in City and Country. VOLUNTEER IMMIGRATION AGENT. What State Supt. McElroy is Doing,and Proposes to Do. State Supt. McElroy is arranging for the coming State Teachers' As aociation to be held here July 6th, Cthaiul 7th, and for tho National Teachers' Association to be held in San Francisco, beginning July 10. Prof. McElroy is a rustler, and his work has Oregon way in the lead in everything. He is doing a magni ficent immigration work, in arrang- inn for visits from a great many of the leading educators of the Union. He has recently invited the Terri torial Superintendents of Dakota, Montana, Idaho and "Washington, and through them, their teachers to visit at tho Salem meeting of the State Association, and has arranged half rates from all these territories over the Oregon Short Line, North ern Pacific, and Oregon Railway & Navigation Co's railroad lines to Portland and return, tickets good to return until Sept. 30. These tick ets will be placed on sale at Terri torial points as early as July 2, and tickets from Portland to San Fran cisco will be placed on sale at Port land about July 10 to 18th. This gives teachers, intending going to San Francisco, plenty of time to come to Salem, and take in the Ore gon xVssociation on their way. Prof. McElroy has also made ar rangements for opening headquar ters for Oregon in the Baldwin ho tel in San Francisco, during the Na tional Association, where literature and information concerning this state will be disseminated among the visiting teachers from the East. Supt. McElroy has asked several Hoards of Trade to bear part of the expense of renting rooms for these h quarters, which expense will not be very small, and it is likely he will get this aid. He should, at any rite, for lie has given a greatdeal of time, and has already dene an enor mous lot of work not required by the statutes.Esimply in a spirit of public enterprise, and a desire to push his state forward. Prof. Mc Elroy deserves much praise, and aid in his enterprising endeavor to at tract the attention of these educated people to Oregon, and especially Halem. Mayer's Assignment.
