THE PROPOSED BOND ISSUE.

A meeting was held in the Fourth
ward amusement hall last night at
which the members of the board of
education discussed the proposal to is
sue bonds for the erection of additional
school buildings. The matter was fully
considered in all its various details
AT the regular meeting of the board
of education tonight the date for the
election will be fixed, and after the
statutory ten days notice has been
given the election will be held, prob
ably about Christmas.
The issuance of bonds is at any time
a serious matter and one that requires
careful and conservative consideration,
and it becomes a matter of more Sc
! robustness when it is contemplated I'M
! der financial conditions which surround
US at present. The board is composed
Of conservative business men who are
fully aware of the financial depression
and its effects; but they are confronted
by a condition. hard, practical condi-
| tIon-not theory and it must be met,
A few facts at this time may not be
amfsS to taxpayers who are considering
| the matter unbiased, with a view to
determining it in a manner that will
/ preserve the efficiency of the schools
and advance the progress of those in
situations.
When the schools opened this fall it
was found that the enrolment increaS-
| ed about 400. The schools had hereto
| for been overtaXed; the accommodation
was limited: and the prospect was that
| the enrolment would still increase.
How to provide for this was the ques>
ton which confronted the board.
| Old buildings which had been dis
carded were reopenedi but this was not
sufficient. and buildings had to be
rented. all this mourning an extra ex-
pense. But this method was entirely
unsatisfactory. both to the board and
citizens; because one taxpayer object
ed to his child being placed in badly
| ventilated, unequipped room, while an
others was in a modern room with all
the necessary fittings and facilities.
Sickness broke out amongst the chill
dren, and while this epidemic, SO to
speak, is not chargeable to the sani-
| tary conditions of the old buildings
| any more than the new, it conferred
one blessing, although it was misfor-
tune which produced it, it relieved the
/ terribly congested condition of the
| schools.
Then there was another phase of the
question which presented itself. There
is no reason to believe that the in
crease in the school population will di-
minish this year, it having increased
during the past two years, and with
another large influx next year, and no
extra accommodation a deadlock would
be the result.
The board decided to erect a four
roomed schoolhouSe in each ward, five
in all, and to meet the expense it was
proposed to issue $4,000 of bonds OBJ
lection has been raised to this, it be-
ing claimed by some that buildings
should be rented, but it has been dem
nostrated that little if anything would
be saved by renting, even could the
buildings be secured and they were
suitable. and consequently the bond
issue is being pressed. 1t is a, matter
which deserves the best considera ton
of the taxpayers and doubtless will re-
ceiVe it.

A Murderer Caught.

The arrest of Ernest Russell, wanted
in Oregon City for the murder of j. NJ.
Brown, was made on Monday by Sher-
if Harrington of Morrow county. Rus
sell was arrested near Long Creek,
Grant county, where he had been liv-
ing with his brother.
Brown was murdered in Oregon City
on December 81, 1894, and from that
time until a few weeks ago the iden-
tity of the assassin was enshrouded in
mystery. All the efforts of Sheriff
Maddox and his deputies to run down
the murderer proved futile. No motive
could be assigned for the deed, and
the authorities were at a loss for a
clue. 1t was only recently that they
obtained their first clue, and it came
in a singular manner, and from an en-
tirely unexpected source. In August
last a, brother of Russell, an engineer
by occupation, was arrested and lodged
in, the county Jail at Oregon City for
the unlawful slaughtering Of elk. In
the iail was a locomotive engineer, who
was serving a sentence. Both belong
ed the Brotherhood of Engineers and a
friendship soon sprang up between
them.
one day Russell, in an outburst of
confidence, told his cellmate that his
brother was the murderer of Brown
Shortly after RuSSell was OlScHdrSeu
from custody From then on his cell
mates troubled look was the subject
of remarks by the other prisoners. One
day Sheriff Maddox entered the CELL
and the man said: Sheriff, there is
something L ought to tell you, but the
man belongs to the same order I dc
and I do not like to talk"
He refused to say anything at that
time, but a. few weeks later he over
came his conscientious scruples and re-
lated the whole tale. He did not re-
member names or place, and Russell
had to be jailed again to retell the
story.
Meantime Ernest Russell had left
Clackamas county. After an extended
search he was located near Long Creek
/ Last Thursday Sheriff Maddox came
to Pendleton and, finding that the trip
TO Long Creek at this time of the year
would occupy some days, telegraphed
Sheriff Harrington, who made the ar
rest. The Clackamas officer left Mon
day night for Willows Junction, where
the Morrow sheriff will await him with
the prisoner. There is another man
mixed up IN the case.

Since the financial grip Of two or
more years ago was frightened gently
upon us, the residents of these parts
have sorely felt the hard times more
than many others, as we have in for
mer years had much succor from the
means and cash that the mines have
brought US from Alta and Big Cotton
wood, and the markets these places
have furnished our citizens.
The Mines.
The mines at Alta, Big Cottonwood
and Gold City are almost at a stand
still But little ore is being mined or
shipped.
Gold City is still practically dead.
Only one or two mines are being
worked and most of the former build
ings and tents are pulled down and
moved away.
Electric Plants.
Over two years ago quite a stir was
made over electric plants said soon to
be a reality in the locality of the
mouth of Big and Little Cottonwood
canyons. AT the former place two or
three of these industries were begun,
but for some reason unknown to the
public they were not pushed to any
extent; but of late there seems to be
a waking up of those electric sparks
and at this writing two companies are
each running a force of twenty or
thirty men, with hopes that there will
be plenty of work for fifty or one hun
dred men the remainder of the winter,
or at least until the labor is finished
and the plants begin operations.
Other Items.
Our fruit crops have been excellent
the last year and the present outlook
is encourag ing for next year. The soil
here seems nicely adapted to small
fruits, and our neighbor, Mr.. John
Boyce, has fully proven to us all that
the most luscious fruits can be raised
here. He has some twenty acres Of
small berry plants which yield him
handsome profits when the seasons are
favorable.
We are now shipping from the
mountains nearby considerable lum-
Der, which gives work for most of our
able-bodied boys, whilst the girls and
children generally are enjoying the
happy school hours under the able di-
rection of Mr.. James Erskine, of your
city.
The health of the people is improv-
ing, as many the past week have COM
planned of an influenza. or sort of la
grippe, but it is fast letting go its
hold and preparing to vanish.

Dad. Very Bad.

We were very much annoyed as well
as embarrassed by the disorder and
confusion made by a crowd of Cedar
young people at the Presbyterian SER
vices last Sunday evening, says the
Cedar City Record. The confusion was
so great and the perpetrators so per-
sistent that it finally resulted in the
breaking UP of the meeting. Had an
officer been present they would pro-
badly have spent the night in the
cooler. We think the children Of the
Latter-day Saints should be exemplary
in these matters, instead of actually
disrupting the services of other de.
nominations
