These were the only promotions ade
to the high school during the year
from any of the city schools.
The school closed quietly yesterday
without any especial programme being
carried out.
The Third ward school also closed
quietly without any elaborate pro-
gramme. There were about 400 pupils
enrolled who passed the examinations
with credit to themselves and their
teachers. Professor II. Shelley Roller
was principal of the Third ward school
and was aided by the following corps OF
assistants: Miss Nina Graves, Miss
Fannie Carnefix and Mrs. Mary w.

The Belmont school is new institu-

entirely controlled by ladies. The able

The highest clouds, cirrus and GIRO

of nearly 10000 feet. The middle clouds
keep at from about 10, 900 to o, 1000 feet
above the surface of the earth; the
lower clouds seldom lower than 5000 or
higher than 1000 feet. The cumnlous
clouds float with their lower surface ut
Il height OF from 1000 to 5000 feet,
while their submits frequently extend
upwards to height of 10000 feet. The
tops of the Alps are often completely
hidden by clouds of the third class,
while those of the other classes are fire..
quently seen shooting up the ravincs
like sheets of smoke. Prof. Moller took

ONE-HORSE STORE.

We noticed an article in last week 8 GA
zETrE complaining about the way goods are
sold at Il little ons. horse store in town
which was evidently driving at us, IN which
the writer states that we are giving our
goods away. Now, we want to say right
hsre that we pay for our goods and we ex-
pect to sell them, or give them away, as
we please. We admit that we are not a
very large concern, but We can supply any
body all the goods they want at any time,
and at the prices quoted. We have four
horse goods but one. horse prices. We have
an unlimited supply of first class goods and
will cobtinue to have rs long as San Fran
cisco and Portland hold ont. So let the
people come and buy us out. Money saved
i'll buying is as good as made BY hard labor.
1t seems that the brother is little nervous
about the prices we are asking for our goods
but as times are hard and money is scarce,
it is necessary to come down to bedrock
prices. This will be our motto in the fu
ture. What is the least we can afford tc
sell this and that article for. We ask the
people to try US and see il the above is not
verified from now ON. Yours Truly,

FOR GOOD ROADS.

Pursuant to call which appeared in the
city papers number of the public spirited
citizens of Benton county met in this city
last Saturday for the purpose of taking
some action towards securing legislation
which will tend to give us better county
roads,
The meeting was called to order at the
court house in the afternoon and Hon. G.
B. Crosno was elected chairman, and W. s.
HuGord secretary.
The following motion was introduced and
seconded: sit js the scnse of this meeting
that all favor direct road tax, and That
our representatives are hereby instructed
to secure proper legislation to that end. >
This was carried by unanimous vote of
the meeting.
It is proposed to introduce a bill from
this county at the next session or. the lesis-
lature which will provide for the repeal of
the present road laws and levy of two.
mill tax on all property in the county for
read purposes; also road poll tax ranging
| from Sl.50 to So 90, the same to be collected
(! and to be kept in separate fund to DO dis
| bursed for road purposes. It will be left
with the county court to npportion thi'
money am,ng the various road districts.
The court is to distribute this money ac
corling to the amount Of taxable propert.
and condition Of the roads in each district
the c,urt to have the power to let tn
work by contract or day labor and to ap
point a general superintendent and sucl
forenoon as may be deemed necessary t
perform the work.
The times are ripe for a movement to
wards better road laws and improving on
county roads and these are being made al
over the country, showing that the peopl
are awakening to the great Importance {
having good roads. Let everybody encoul
age this move as much as possible.>

SOME PROBABLE LEeIsLATIoN.-Very
soon all eyes will be turned toward the
legislature, for some wise legislation is ex-
pected this winter, insomuch as it is badly
needed. One of the laws that cries loudly
and yet more loudly for change from year
to year is that relating to taxation and as
sessment. Under shs present system the
property more and more of it escapes tax
alton every year, while in the different
counties the indebtedness ESQ claimed) is
growing alarmingiy. Some believe pre-
clpet assessor system should be established
and that there should be no exemption
for Indebtedness. There will be an act pro.
/ posed exempting homesteads from execution.
And then there will be an act for appropria.
tion for a fishway at Oregon City, and one for
the completion of the state Misunderstanding
it on the north and south ends according
to the original plans, which would add
much to the beauty and symmetry of the
| building And then there will be an eff
| fort made to established a jute bag factory
at the state penitentiary. 1t would require
an appropriation of Is. 600 to equip and put
in operation such q factory as is proposed,
but such an institutation would save tens
of thousands of dollars annually to the
| farmers of the state on grain sacks. There
is general feeling throughout the state
and among the members favorable to the
scheme and from conversation with men,
bers of the legislature the opinion is formed
that the proposed bill will become law
