The people of Havana are evidently becoming
well fitted for citizenship in glorious republic for
the bakers, the masons and the hackmen are on a
strike and other workngmen are inclined to follow
their example There is nothing SO easy as adapting
ones self to the ways of liberty.
The Postofhce Department has often been indebted
to the West for useful hints. Here is another: Just
outside of Kansas City the other day two fast mail
trains going at full speed smashed into each other.
The mail was distributed in fy throughout the sur
rounding country.
The natives of Manila must be very hard to please
for it is stated that when the American commander in
the city gave the self-styed amigos" chance to
show their rendness by digging trenches and clean
ing streets under military supervision, they didn't like
il.
The future historian will write that the biggest
things brought about by the Spanish war were the
reception of the California boys their return home
and the exposition of San Francisco an illuminated
town.

Lieutenant Albert Jenkins.

While the papers have teemed
with the accounts of acts Of heroism
and daring Of American soldiers
and sailors facing the foe in battle
on land and sea during the past
two years, there have been
evidences Of equal courage, patriot
ism and more self.sacrifce that are
not emblazoned on every printed
page. Conspicuous among such
examples is the conduct Of Lieut..
Albert Jenkins, Of the artillery
service, now in command at Key
West. When yellow fever broke
out and the troops had TO be re.
moved, leaving only a volunteer
detachment in charge, Lieutenant
Jenkins promptly volunteered to
take the command and remain at
the dangerous post, and twenty-four
men responded to his call for
volunteers and remained with him.
Six of these men have had the
yellow fever but there have been
no deaths. Lieutenant Jenkins
has isolated his command and
taken every precaution to stamp
out the disease, giving the sick the
greatest care. lie has himself
escaped the disease and the Eagle
hopes that he will continue to
enjoy immunity from it, and that
he and the brave men with him
will be rewarded by the govern
ment for their heroism in facing
an insidious and invisible foe for
the protection of United States
deienses and property at that inn
portant point.

ages dropped the tiny bags containing
the birthday money little bit more

WHO MAY BE DIRECTORS.
The Question Answered Dy superin-
tendent Ackerman.

A question that has been propounded
to the state superintendent with great
deal of persistency is that of the qualifi-
cations of school directors. In response
to demand for information upon this
point, Mr.. Ackerman has issued the
following Gil Icular of instruction:
'The question has been asked whether
or rot persons who have the requisite
qualifications to vote for school director
or school clerk, only, have the requisite
qualifications for holding the Office of
school director or school clerk. Reply
ing to said question I will cay that, in
my opinion, if a person has the requisite
qualifications to vote for school director
or school clerk, only, said person has
the requisite qualifications for school di-
rector or school clerk.
"You will notice by a careful reading
of the law covering qualifications of
voters that it makes provision for two
classes of voters; one OF which can vote
at any school election or school meeting
upon any question; the other being
| composed of women who are widows
and male citizens over 81 years of age
who have children in the district of
school age, and who shall have resided
in the district 80 days, as aforesaid,
shall be entitled to vote at any school
meeting, for the election of school di-
rectors or school clerk. That is to say,
this latter class can vote for school di-
rector or school clerk, only, and hence
are qualified, according to this ruling,
to hold the Office of school director OF
school clerk. I have based this opinion
upon sections 81 and 80, page 43, of the
Oregon school laws, which reads as fol-
lows:
Section 81. Any person, male OF
female, who is qualified voter al
school elections, shall be eligible to the
Office of school director in such districts
Section 80. At such general Oh
special elections, in such districts, the
only officers voted for shall be that o.
directors and clerk"
