Comparative Statement.

There has been some talk of reducing
salaries of teachers in the public schools
of the county. Believing that COM
parative statement of The Dalles with
other cities in this regard will aid the
board in considering the matter, and
enlighten all citizens interested in the
public schools as well, we give space to-
day to as accurate table as it is possi-
BILE to get. It is very complete, showing.
besides the salaries of the places named,
which is believed to be representative of
the entire section of country covered by
them, the census of school children,
average daily attendance, cost per pupil,
months of school, etc. The table is in
tended to convey all needed information
hs regards school work and will be valu-
able for future reference.

think he can do so, his preliminary trial
will take place.
It has come to the attention of the
Rod and Gun club that parties are fish

Squirrel Poison.

Among the numerous pests of the
farmer, the squirrels take first rank.
They tpull up young corn to get the
kernel in the ground, devastating entire
fields, destroy cabbage and all young
and tender plants, and later steal the
wheat from field of grain, carry away
and bury potatoes, eggs, prunes, and in
a thousand different ways harass and an
noy the man who depends upon what he
raises for livelihood. The best wav to
rid the fields of their presence Is by
poison, which is a very thorough meth
cd, if persevered in. Among the best
recipes is the following, taken from
correspondent of the East Oregonian:
"Take one and one-half gallons of
warm water, add two pounds of sugar,
one-half ounce of powdered strychnine
and small stick of licorice (squirrels
are very fond of the latter), stir the mix
ture until the poison is entirely dis
solved, then put in what wheat the lie-
uid will cover and let it stand over night.
In the morning empty the mixture into
bucket that has hole in the bottom and
| place it over the can in which you mixed
the poison until the liquid has drained
off the wheat and you can utilize it again
lPurchase your strychnine at some reli-
able druggists or in the crystalized form
and powder it yourself, as it is fre-
quently adulterated. One small tea
spoonful of wheat prepared in the above
manner will destroy eight or ten squirrels
and they go for it every time.''

a Quarter of Million Sinners fin n
New York City.

From the Philadelphia Record.
There has been a good deal of gossip over
the statement made by DR.. Charles H.
there are at least quarter of a million un-
faithful husbands and wives in the COM
munity. The minister, however, is certain
that he did not overestimate the matter
In his sermon. DIR. Parkhurst among
other things said:
THE love between husband and wife is
kept true in some cases by the possession
of children, but / have learned enough 20
know that iE the case of any couple that
might present themselves before me to be
married l would not at any rate of pre-
mium issue an insurance policy on their
conjugal felicity good for more than five
years, unless on the contingency Of OFF,
spring or on the basis of their common
faith in God.
IF a lady goes to the store and buys an
article that she is sure is marvelousiy
cheap and cannot understand how such a
piece Of handmade goods can be procured
at SO pittable figure, she knows If she
knows anything about the world she lives
in and the industrial conditions that pre-
vail, that some poor girl in some sickly
back alley has been half paid for her
work, and She the elegant lady going shop
ping In her carriage, gets the benefit of it.
IniS city Is full OF this, and SO Is every
other city. She does not kill the girl out
right, but she helps to kill her by inches"
Mrs. Elizabeth B. Grannis, president of
the Social Purity League, thought Dr.
Parkhurst erred in placing the number at
quarter of a million.
There are more than that" she said
land the most of them are in the upper
circles of society.
Here is society running around to save
the miserable 10000 depraved women in the
cl fhay ifl, h..
more than 100000 married persons who are
no better than they?
DIR Parkhurst tells us about these things,
and they are all too true. but he does not
prescribe any remedy for them. 1 do not
believe what he says about there being no
faithful love without religion or a belief
in Father in heaven. | have seen too
many cases where there has been faithful
love without religion. What We want is
some one to preach and carry forward a
law on the subject.
There is not the semblance of law pro-
tecting marriage in the state of New
York"
