To the Editor OF The Republican.
Our school authorities will soon
be called upon to elect teachers for
the ensuing scholastic year--no un-
important duty
We believe that those having this
matter in charge will not object to
receiving expressions from friends
and patrons of our cIty schools.
We ask that they give us the best
talent they can secure-those who
love the profession of teaching and
are likely to make it a life work.
We ask their pardon in advance
for suggesting the name of one for
principal of the Oakland schools
who has had years of experience in
graded schools, and who ranks
among the first teachers in the
Stare; one who possesses fine scho.
lastic abilities and strong in teach
ing power. We refer to Prof. r.
r. Sanner.

him you will make no mistake.
Quite a number of our Young la
dies and gentlemen say il he can be

this large, and we may add, rapidly
increasing library. In the library
we found books which were printed

Aside from their intrinsic worth,
they are very valuable as books Of
reference and quite curiosity. Mr..

HritiSh India.

Great Britain has been stretching her
wings over India. In 1912 she laid claim
to 626, 900 squares miles Of that coun,
try. She made additions to this every
year except 1913, 1916 and 1862, down tC
1856, when her possessions aggregated
$50, 900 square miles. Advances We're
made in 1866, 1882 and 1886, and now
the area of India under British rule is
927, S87 square miles. British India is
larger than all that part of the United
States lying east of the Mississippi river
and its population five times as great as
the present population Of this whole
country. Great Britain may not be able
to acquire much more of India. Indeed
there is likely to be difficulty in retain
ing what she has with native dissatisfac,
ton and the watchfulness of her aggra,
waiting enemy on the north, who in the
last 40 years has moved his boundaries
over many degrees Of latitude.-Texas

BrOnZe Powder Making.

Nearly a hundred establishments are
engaged in the manufacture of bronze
powder in and near the cities of Turth and
Nuremberg, Germany. 1t is composed OF
copper, tin, zinc and anthony melted
in proper proportions and cast first into
rods of half an inch in diameter and
about three feet long, these rods being
rolled until about two inches wide and
then cut into suitable lengths for han
ding. The pieces go to the hammers,
where they are beaten into a very small
fraction of their former thickness, and
are then taken to a sulphuric acid bath,
where each sheet is washed to remove
all impurities, rust aud dirt.
After being thoroughly dried the
sheets are again hammered by steam
hammers until no further reduction is
possible, there being a limit to which
machinery can be used. Up to this
stage the treatment which the metal re,
c~eives, whether intended for powder Oh
metal leaf, is identical, but now the
process changes. If designed for metal
leaf, the further beating is done by hand,
but if for bronze powder the sheets &c

tlvely moderate rate will give it on one
hand 1900 900 years Of existence. while.
on the other hand, the inevitable fall Of
the meteors into the sun may double this
number.
Even if you suppose the duration of
the sun to be prolonged to 40. 0OO, 900
years, 1t is still incontestable that the
radiation from the sun cools il, and that
the temperature Of all the bodies tends to
any equilibrium. Then the earth and
all the other planets Of our system will

be erased from the great book and will
r%evolve, black cemeteries, around an ex-
tinguished sun.

You'd a doubt, for the small bodies such

survive Us. These it'll worlds lose their
elements Of vitality much faster than
the sun loses it's heat.
From century to century, from year
to year, from day to day, from hour to
hour, the surface of the earth is trans
formed. On the one hand the cont
nents are crumbling away and becoming
covered by the sea, which insensibly and
by slow degrees TENDS to invade and sub
merge the entire globe. On the other
hand, the amount of water on the globe
is diminishing. A careful and reason
able calculation shows that by the &C
ton Of erasure alone all the land on our
planet will be covered by water in 49,
600, 900 years.

WE ARE ALL EIGHT.

Those here who complain of hard
times would do well to look upon the
condition of the balance OF the country.
1t is dull here, but we believe there is
more money in circulation in proper
tion to population than in any other
neighborhood in the state. There is i
general business stagnation Throughout
the United States and while its effects
are visible here, we are so much better
off than other places that we should
feel contented. In the manufacturing
.Ceuters of the east, and toe silver min
ing centers of the west thousands of
men are idle and not far from actual
want. We have had a good crop Of
small fruits, that bought fair prices,
and put $4,000 in circulation here
within two months, or about Sl5,0o
for every man women and child in the
valley. Besides this our other crops
are good, we have plenty Of wheat,
plenty of vegetables, and the apple
crop promises a good yield, and good
prices. Indeed it we so to making
comparisons with our neighboIing
towns, we cannot help but realize that
Hood River has much to congratulate
herself for.

THE CUTE SALMON.

The salmon run during the season
just closed, has been the poorest known
since white man began to fish fer them
in the Columbia. Tuesday dispatch
from Astoria stated that splendid run
began that day, the latch averaging IS
to the boat. Last year a similar state
of affairs existed, the run commencing
just with the close season. That the
sslmon have caught on is therefore
evident, and we believe that Orion
Kinersly and Emil Shut, Of The
Dalles are responsible for it. Two
years ago, the former gentlemen dump
ed cart load of almanacS in the river,
and the latter disgusted with the i'm
possibility of enforcing the fish laws
dumped another cart load of fish laws
in pamphlet form at the mouth of
Mill creek. At this time the big Chin
ooks were drifting back to the ocean
and every individual rascal of them
swiped a copy Of each and put out to
sea how be could evade the laws. A
convincing fact in this connection is
that the run started on the Sth instead
of the 10th. The fish were
cute enough, but the almanacs
were those of 1891, and they thought
Tuesday was the 10th Instead of the
tn. They got fooled by few days
only, but they followed the fashion,
made run OIL the fishermen and the
latter were compelled "tO close their
doors" Col. Sinnott of the Umatilla
house, the best posted man in the
country on salmon will Youch for the
statements above made. He is ac-
quainted with Knersly, Shutz and
the salmon.

more attention than any sinliar doc
tument in the past thirty years, II Is
briet, concise, and devoted alulnSt eu-
tirely to the financial question. Il j. u
conservative document, putting the
facts plainly, is not dictatorial aui in
brief is so happy a presentation ot The
Subject, that those who are opposed Ia
he presidents views, can find 40
,ult with IL. The president urges the
Immediate repeal of the Sherman bill,
but makes no suggestions concerning
legislation on the subject, besides this
except that what is done be done
quickly. tie conciUdes his message by
saying that HAD the financial situation
not demanded imWediate attention,
he would have called a special session
of congress in September to revise the
tariff laws. From which it will be
seen that he has not lost sight u the
party pledges or platform, aud that is
soon as the silver question is settled,
the revision Of the tariff laws will be
undertaken.
