duced:
Whereas. There seems to be some
dissatisfaction with the action of the
Board of Education of this city in clos
ing the Sixth avenue school; and
Whereas, This Board knows of but
two or three families who are more in
convenienced by attending the Walnut
street school, than are large number
of the children in the city; and
Whereas, This Board can see no good
and sufficient reason why said school
should be maintained, so near another
school which it is necessary to main
tain, aud in which there is ample ae-
commodations for the pupils of both
schools; therefore, be it
Resolved, That whenever there shall
be sufficient patronage in said outlying
district to justify the necessary ex-
pense, that this Board will reopen said
Sixth avenue school: and be it further
Resolved, That if this action of the
Board is not satisfactory to the citizens
of the outlying district on the west side
of the city, that this Board will willing
ly release all of said outlying district
that lies west of West street, or extern
stems thereof, whenever a proper ma
jority of the citizens and voters in said

wish to form district of their own.

The Oregonian says: Prof. Me-
Elroy, who has been at work for
months working up an interest in
this state to secure a good exhibit of
all the products, as well as Of its
various resources, will be able to
give the crowds to assemble soon at
Milwaukee, at the Grand Army en-
campment for 1889, an idea of what
Oregon can produce, and what its
immense resources are. The Oregon
land company has done large busi-
ness in city and farm lands at and
near Salem, and has shown great
enterprise and uncommon liberality
in all that tended to advance Ore
gon interests in general, and in this
effort of Professor McElroy in par
ticular. They will expend more of
their own money to make this ex-
hibit, than will be spent from all
other sources, and to them it is
chiefly due that it has the value it
really possesses, for IL is probably
the best exhibit of the kind ever
made.
