As the time draws near for the
public schools to commence, the
question of the expense of school
DOCKS again touches paterfamlias'
sensitive nerve that centers in the
pocket book. Where a parent OF
but moderate income has several
children to educate, it is no joke to
near the oft repeated statement,
ia, will you get me some books,
here's list of them.n "Pa, teacher
says l must have another book or
NOW I'm promoted, you must buy
me some new books" All these de
sires are accompanied with such
smiles of delight, and with such an
innocent ignorance of the cost that
the parent represses the sigh and
furnishes the funds or has it
charged"
IN California, the state prints and
publishes the school books furnish
ing them at the following rates {:
Costprice by mail or at retail stores,
First Reader, 20 cents; Second
Reader, 40 cents Third Reader, 66
cents; Speller, so cents; Primary
No. lessons, 10 cents; Advanced
Arithmetic, 5Ocents English Gram
mar, so cents L. S. History, so
cents.
This is said to he about half the
ordinary cost of such books.
1t is supposed that this covers the
cost to the state. They are about to
put up costly warehouse for stor-
ing them.
a movement was made in the last
Oregon legislature, in favor of the
state publishing its own school
books, but it did not carry. 1t will
likely be renewed at the coming
session, The subject is we'll worthy
of consideration.

The water works at the peniten-
tiary not working satisfactorily for
the insane asylum, DIR. Lane has
ordered a large auxiliary pump for
the new large well at the latter
institution so that they can raise II
million gallons a day. They expect
to use enough water for all house
hold and garden purposes, supply
the penitentiary, the orphans
home and the state fair and have a
good surplus. Certainly that was
a lucky hit of the DOCTORS to sink
that well. Wonder if he isn't n
water witch. The health at the
asylum just now is exceptionally
good. The influx of new patients
has been small of late.

UNRESTRAINED ANGER.
A Threshing Machine Proprietor
Strikes a Blow That May
Prove Fatal.
This comes from BaJlston

This comes from Ballston:
William Davis, who lives in the
northern end of Polk county, is this
season operating a steam thresher,
and boards his employers, having a
cook house on wheels which follows
the machine. On Friday evening
he had completed work on the farm
of County Judge Stouffer, and after
supper commenced cleaning up pre-
paratory to moving to an adjoining
field. Three of the men commenced
complaining about the food furnish
! ed by Mr.. Davis, and after some
words were discharged. The re-
mainder of the crew started to get
the machine ready to move, Mr.. d.
being on his knees at the front of
the machine, when Layton Tindle
made the remark that the supper
had not been fit to eat, and that the
men were right in complaining.
Davis told him to keep still and go
to work. This greatly eXasperated
Tindle, and with an oath and an in
famous name he replied "Tll to
work when l get ready" Davis
Immediately arose to his feet, and
when passing under the feed stable,
jerked out large oak stick that had
been used as a support to the table,
and struck Tindle over the head
with it, knocking him insensible.
Examination revealed the fact
that Tindle was seriously injured,
and Davis, after telling the men to
take Tindle to the house and 90 for
a doctor, said he would go and give
himself up to the sheriff, and then
left the crowd, since which time
nothing has been seen or heard of
him.
Mr.. Tindle is seriously hurt, and.
not likely to recover. Mr.. Davis is
supposed to be hiding in hevicinity,
and if Tindle improves will come in
and give himself up; but in case of
his death will attempt to escape;
Sheriff Smith is now looking for
him. Both men are well known
in Polk County and bear good repu-
tations. Tindle is unmarried.

More Teachers.

And still they come. Yesterday
Prof. McElroy accompanied to
Portland a dozen more of the
national association teachers on
their way home from San Fran
cisco. Tomorrow morning about
forty more, probably the last, will
be on the S:19 train. Great efforts
were made by Superintendent Nc
Elroy, and his helpers did heroic
work in San Francisco to induce
them to return this way, and the
good people of Salem have met
those who went through before
quite handsomely with fruit and
flowers. 1t is earnestly desired
that the good reputation of our city
be kept up on this last occasion.
Fix up the bouquets and fill your
boxes with fruit and be on hand.
And at the risk of being mistaken
for mere advertisers, be sure and
give plenty of leaflets containing
the cuts of our principal buildings.
Thesr tceahers will not stop over.
