In Oregon our text books are selected

state board of education, consisting
Of governor, secretary of state. and
superintendent of public instruction
Assuming that the state superirtend-
ent follows the example of past super
intendents and limits the number Of
the board of examiners to 9, It Is a
plain proposition that IL the state su
perintenjent is in alliance with the
American Book Co., or any other book
trust, the members would be corpor-
ate monopoly voters. We have 80
county superintendents in the state,
and . members of the board of ex-
aminers, making Al votes to be used

sumption and supposition have arisen
in the state and the outrageous school
book contract which the supporters of
our public schools are compelled to
meet was saddled on the state by
methods suggested above, January 1st,
1895.
THE REMEDY.
Vote only for men who are known
by record or by pledge to oppose this
contract with the American Book Co.
and who will use all the power Of the
law to provide our schools with as
good books. at as low cost, as can be
had in any state of the Union. Our
candidates are irreproachable on this
proposition, their position is known,
and they will if elected, guard the
interests of the schools. The next
book election occurs in 1900, under
state superintendent and secretary of
state and governor to be chosen at the
coming election.
Work and work hard for their cleo
ton; be unceasing in your efforts; let
no opportunity pass by for bringing
this great question before our people.

REUNION OF BOYS IN BLUE.
GRAND ARMY CAMP FIRE AT
FORESTERs' HALL.
The Veterans Rally and Enjoy
Their "Reminiscences Of the
Late War.

The Grand Army Posts of this city
held campfire and reunion last night
at Foresters' Hall, which had large
attendance. and a number of ex-soldlers
and sailors We're present by invitation,
as we'll as a number from other posts.
The first thing in order was speeches
from various members. Comrade
Easterbrook of Warren Post led off and
made a rafting speech, during which
he said that Sumner Post monopolized
the intellect of the organization, While
Warren Post monopolized the good
looks Comrade Bennett of Sumner
Post followed, disclaiming for himself
the compliment to his post of the pre-
ceding speaker, but acknowledging its
justice, although modesty forbade him
to appropriate it personally
Comrade Wiley spoke of the organ
ization as the grandest on earth. and
alluded to the close companionship it
induced in those who had partaken of
the perls and vicissitudes of the war.
Comrade Tozer described the Grand
Army reunions he attended while on his
visit to the East, and how the veterans
brought their wives and children to at
tend them and become thoroughly ac-
~
his visit to the Bull Run battlefield,
and the change since 1861, when the
houses were few and far between then,
while now it is the most prosperous
farming section in the East, being dot
ted with farmhouses, and shows very
little sign of the tremendous conflict
waged there.
Comrade Seaman of Los Angeles said
it was a privilege to belong to the or
ganization, and that in these piping
times of peace there is still much for
it to do and battles still to fight against
the evils that threaten the country.
From the applause that greeted his re-
| marks on Americanism, putting up the
bars against foreign immigration. the
freedom of Cuba and the Hawaiian
question, any hearer would have very
| little doubt of the sentiments of the
| Grand Army on those questions.
The assembly deferred further speech
making in order to partake of hand
tack. coffee, salt horse and other deli
cacies of the days of 81 and succeed
ing years.. after which Comrade Meas
ure set the ball rolling by reading the
letter of a pension claimant to Com
| missioner Black, depicting his tribula-
tions from medical examiners and other
causes. Stories and war "reminiscences
followed and then some rafting
speeches were made by Comrades
Mott, Kanouse and Fitch, and the as
sembly dispersed after singing Amer
lea" with a will.

on favorably by the court. This would
make a difference of $201 to the county,
and the call was for the highest and best
bid. Time is an object, as the Com
missioners have only till January i,
1889, in which to finish the road.
Mr. Carroll, representing Harris &
Co, stated that their bid did not con-
template going into court, but only that
their attorney should pass favorably on
the bonds
C. F. Dillman said that the check was
guaranteed by Harris & Co. for their
representative. but he thought this was
hardly g certified check.
MIR. Carroll said that, if necessary he
would within twenty-four hours have a
certified check for the amount on Mr..
Dillman's bank, and the latter laughed
and said that ought to be satisfactory.
Supervisor Mclaughlin moved that
the matter be taken under consdera-
tion for ten days.
Supervisor Curtis said he thought two
or three days should be sufficient.
Mr.. Carroll stated that some time ago
he -telegraphed to the Clerk, asking
that papers be sent to him, in order that
the firms attorney might examine them
and be prepared to pass on them. In
equity, he thought that the board
should take that fact into consideration,
and that the Clerk informed him that 1t
could not we'll be done. 1t would take
at least six days before his attorney
could pass on the matter of the bonds'
validity, and it was only fair to give MIN
the necessary time.
Mr.. Dillman offered, if the board
wished to accept the bid in open board,
! to raise his bid $202, but the board de-
cided that would not be fair to the other
bidders. who had no such authority.
On motion of Supervisor McLaugn-
lin, the consideration of the bids was
postponed until the 21st inst, at p. m
The members each presented lists OF
! jurymen from their respective districts.
: The claims of b. Leonard and Charles
Gradoni as election officers were re-
jected, and the board adjourned till the

her voice, which is wonderful one for

been deep contraltCs. No song this ac-
