of the primary or 1st grade. She
seems especially adapted for the
duties incumbent upon her and is
very popular with her pupils. If
the report that she intends retir-
ing from the school at the end of
the year be true, it is a matter of
regret. An especial effort should
be made to have her retained.
.::The school, as a WHOLE" con-
tinued Prof. Denman, ''is making
rapid advancement. Under the
supervision of Prof. Pratt, the
standard of the work and general
tone of the school have been ma
terially raised. He is careful,
cautious and experienced and is
popular with both pupils and
teachers.
MY inspection of the building
resulted in findine it in excelldnt
condition, with the single eXcep-
ton that it appears to be settling
in the center. 1t would perhaps
be we'll for the directors to give
the matter attention"
There is no doubt that the ov-
ercr ,wded condition of the school
is matter of serious concern to
patrons of the school and at the
coming school meeting some
means should he devised for rem |
edyIng the trouble. It has been
suggested that an assembly room
might be constructed in the third
story that would be suitable for
two recitation rooms. The out
lay would not likely exceed 5000
or 800 and for the presant. at
least, would afford all the addi-
tional room required.

Sensational Death.

Miss Ellen Beach Yaw, who
sang in Salem recently, died al
Binghamton, New York, on
Jan. Z. Her death was sensa-
tional and sudden, says a New
York paper. She was singing be-
fore an audience and, in reaching
the high notes, for which her
voice is noted as being higher than
PATHS ever reached, the Jugular
vein in her throat burst and she
bled to death OH the stage before
her audience. Miss Yaw was able
to reach the highest note of any
cantatrice in the world, which
was due to Il peculiar formation of
her throat. In straining to get
this note. muscles of the throat
were pressed against the jugular
vein and injured this by abrasion,
until the membrane was worn
through, causing hemorrage. She
had been warned by the best vo-
Cal masters that the result would
be so if she persisted in singing so
high, but their warming was not
heedel. -...

Salvation Joe.

The prophecies of old have
been fulfilled. The lion and the
lamb have lain down together.
Concessions have been made
both by the common council and
tn Salvation army, and peace
once more reigns within our city
borders.
1t has been a long time since a
trial In justice or polio" court
has attracted so much attention
and caused so much comment as
the arrest and trial of Joseph
Cowan, native son of Erin, who
IS soldier of the cross in the Sal.
vation army.
The night police, W. L. Skip
ton, thought Joe was too bolster
Gus in his worship and arrested
him for following on the streets.
Cowan demanded a jury trial and
the case was postponed until Fri:
day at 10 O'Clock. Before the
hour arrived the police court was
we'll filled with spectators, COM
posed of Christians of all denom-
nations, as we'll as skeptics and
worldly people.
Joe put up his trial fee as re-
quired by law and was represent
ed by Attorneys Yates Il Yates.
The city was represented by City
Attorney E. E. Wilson and +. l..
Bryan, of Philomath.
The following jury was agreed
upon: G. E.. Hou:, J. L. Porter,
S. L. Shedd, Frank Abger, L. j.
Creighton and J. q. Phillips, and
the case went to trial.
The city proved by several vii
nesses that Joe followed too loud
and the defense proved by ii mul-
titude of witnesses that he did
not and that the army was good
thing. During the whole of the
afternoon up to nine O'Clock, when
the jury retired, standing room
was at par in the courtroom and
in the hall.
After considerable deliberatlon
and several ballots, the jury
agreed to disagree, and Joe was TO
be retired on Wednesday.
While w. E. Yates was making
his argument to the jury, word
came in that the captain OF the
army had been arrested and lock-
ed up, which caused much ex-
element. A movement was on
foot to have public street parade
of all Chr stian people in town
who were In sympathy with the
army, and the council had spe-
cial meeting to consider the mat.
ter of Cancellation. There were
diversified opinions as to who was
right and who was wrong, and the
army people threatened damage
suit against the city.
Finally, committee appointed
by the council, together with the
army captain and the attorneys on
both sides, held joint meeting in
the city attorneys office, at which
time concessions were made on
all sides, and all concerned
smoked the pipe of peace.
Thus endeth the first chapter.

THE UNDEFENSIBLE MEANS.

The deadlock at Salem cannot
be called the exercise of a minor
ity's constitutional rights. 1t is
the exercise, perhaps, of a mi
naritE's constitutional might, but
the spirit and purpose of the
constitution is opposed to the
revolutionary methods adopted
by those who refuse to perform
their official duties.
We dare not, in matters of
state, adopt the Jesuistical pre-
cept, "the end justifes the
means" Some of those who
have taken it upon themselves to
prevent the people from making
laws through their chosen repre-
sentatives may honestly believe
that the object they desire to at
tain thereby is good. They Of
fer more or less plausible excuses
of this kind, but the people can
not accept them.
The spirit manifested at Salem
by tide obstructionists is a 1nanace
to civil liberty and threatens ou1
democratic form of government
1nent. Are these men establish.
ing a precedent? What will the
"public object" be in 1899, an6
who will decide that the end is
such as to justify the means?
The constitution of Oregon
says ''the legislature shall con
vene." This is the issue before
us as citizens and, when con
fronted by such an issue, W.
should forgot to be partizans
How little do the sleek explana
tions offered by resourcetul poll
ticians weigh in deciding such ;
matter. The question reache
far beyond temporary justifca
ton from a personal, from a part.
or from a public standpoint.

COURTS WILL DECIDE.

Thirty -one, majority of the house of
representatives, yesterday took the oath
of Office and effected permanent organ
ization. This was the only course left tor
them to pursue, and by their action they
have, without doubt, upheld the spirit
and intel. of the constitution. They
are morally right i'll the step they have
taken, and whether they are legally right t
is matter to be settled by the courts
1t is possible that the senate will refuse
to recognize the house as now organized,
but the members of that body must bear
in mind that the state has three distinct
branches of government-the legislative,
the judicial and the executive. Each
branch has its peculiar duties to perform
and should not encroach upon the func-
tions of either of the other departments.
When the house gives notice to the
senate of its organization, the latter is
bound to recognize it. 1t has no legal
right to go behind such notification. The
question of constitutionality does not en-
ter into the matter so far as the senate
is concerned; that is a matter alone for
the courts to decide. The fact that the
house is organized is prima facia evidence
that the organization was legal. Should
any disagreement arise in the senate as
to the course that that body should pur-
sue in the matter, the senators have as a
guide for their own course the action of
Chief Justice Moore when he admins
tered the oaths of Office to the permanent
officers of the house. This policy will
be the likely one for them to adopt 1t
is the only consistent one. Senators
have no right to usurp judicial func-
tons. They are law makers-not law
Interpreters. Should they go behind the
notification of the house of its organiza-
tion, upon the grounds of supposed
doubtful constitutionality, they, as a
legislative body, will be guilty of un-
warranted interference with the duties of
the judicial branch of the government.

THE constitution did not con-
template giving a minority the
power to prevent legislation by
willful neglect of duty. The
obstructionists should be given
every opportunity to act as legis-
1ators and if they refuse to obey
the demands of the people, let
the members who will, organize
as best they can, with any NUM-
Der they can, and the people,
democrats, populists and republi-
cans, will endorse them. ST.
mons devi1ish reasoning is not
potent among the masses, how
ever 1t may blind the unsophisti-
Gated country Legislators. Des-
perate diseases require desperate
remedies.

IT is with pleasure that this

tempt to organize a boycott.
While it is unfortunate that she
assumed to speak for the faculty
in the matter, it seems that they
in no way encouraged her, but
on the contrary, several of the
professors did all in their power
to deter her from taking the ILL
advised step.

No one regrets more than the
editor of this paper the unpleas-
ant mention of Miss SnelIs
name. The lady, however, has
herself invited and made neces-
safy plain speaking. In her ex-
traordinary attempts to coerce
the press, she has strangely for
gotten her duty as an instructor
of young ladies and as a MEM
Der of society. This paper has
no fight to make against Miss
Smell. 1t only desires to rid the
college of its incompetents and,
notwithstanding her serious for
getfulness, does. not number her
In. the list.
