INSURANCE RATES
ON SCHOOL HOUSES

We have noticed several articles re-
Gently relative to insurance on school
buildings, and find there are some sugges-
tive figures in a recent issue OF THE Car.
IrAL JOURNAL in regard to the matter.
We find that, according to this article,
Marion county paid for insurance on
school buildings, during the FIVE years
from 1891 TO 1895, inclusive, in round
numbers, $1,000, an average Of $500
per year. The paynent for the five
years from 1896 to 1900. inclusive, is
s9740, an average of $3.50 per year. This
shows a saving in insurance paid during
the two periods Of $40 per year. THE
OREGON FIRE RELIEF AsSOCIA.
TION wished 20 claim portion Of this
saving as due to its work in Marion
county. They do not claim that they
have saved the whole amount OF over
500 per year, but do claim that they are
insuring large number of school build.
ings in Marion county at about one
third the cost of old line insurance, and
that this saving OF two.thirds the regu-
lar standard rates on the number OF
school buildings they have insured in
Marion county is the occasion OF part OF
the above mentioned saving in insu
rance. Taking the amount of insurance
paid in the state for the past 10 years as
shown in the article quoted, sl20. 900, we
agree with the writer of the article i'm
thinking that this isa great deal too
much TO pay for insurance, and II is
quite probable that three fourths of the
above amount could becarried in the
OREGON FIRE RELIEF Ass0CIA-
TIoN at cost of about $4,000 instead
OF 100000. This would mean a saving
of 100000 during the 10 years, or one
half the amount which was paid for in
surance. Now while II might be wise
for the state to insure school buildings,
IN preference to paying the regular
standard companies rates, we consider
Il quite doubtful ii they could afford 10
do so il all the school districts who
could were carrying their Insurance
with the Association. The Association
is conducted on \ safe conservative
basis and furnishes insurance TO its
members at actual cost. We admit
that if'school buildings were insused in a
class by themselves, as would be the
case il the state insured them. the-e
might be a small saving over the cost in !
the OREGON FIRE RELIEF AsSO-
as the records of insurance
companies for years have shown that
the rate on school buildings is higher
in proportion than it is on most other
classes Of property. Any school district
in Marion county that has been payiug
regular insurance company rates for in
surance and has any desire 10 obtain in
surance for a more reasonable cost. |

1T rs IMPORTANT
To Know What You Are Taking When Uslnl
CatarTh Medicines.


Catarrh is the short route to consnmp-
ton. aud the importance OF early and
iudicious treatment Of catarrh, whether
located in the head, throat or bronchial
tubes, cannot be too strongly empha.
sized.
The list Of catarrh cures is as long az
the moral law and the forms in which
they are administered, numerous and
confusing, from sarays, inhalers. washes
ointments, and salves TO powders,
liquids and tablets.
The tablet form is undoubtedly the
most convenient and most effective, but
with nearly all advised catarrh reme-
dies 1t is almost entirely a matter Of
guess work AS 10 what you are taking
into your system, ss the proprietors,
while making all sorts Of claims as to
what their medicines will do, always
keep il close secret as 10 what they
are.
The success and popularity Of the new
catarrh cure, stuart's Catarrh Tablets,
is largely because it not only cures
catarrh, but because catarrh sufferers
who used these tablets know what they
are taking into their systems. Stuart +

Eucolyptol, Hydrastin, Guaico and
similar yaluable'and antiseptic ingredi-
ents, and are pleasant 70 the taste and
being dissolved in the mouth they take
immediate effect upon the mucous lining
Of the throat, nasal passages and whole
respiratory tract.
The cures that Stusrt's Caiarrh Tab
let's have accomplished ia old chronic
cases Of catarrh are little short Of re-
tnarkable, and the advantage Of know
ing what you are putting into your
Bt0mach is Of paramount importance
when il il remembered that the cocaine
or morphine habit has been frequently
contracted a. the result Of using secret
cataTrn remedies.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets meet with
cordial approval from physicians, be-

BKEZE GIBSON
AT ASTORIA
A Correct Version of His
Wanting to Bag Sea GullS.

Oswald West. Salem bank cashier
now employed at Astoria, is quite a
joker, and tells this on prominent
Polk county farmer:
Breze Gibson was in town yesterday
He said he was down for a change Of
diet and wanted me to direct him to a
restaurant, where he could get good
meal. took him to an oyster house
and after ordering him a couple OF dozen
on halt shell, left him A few hours
later | found him down on the docks
taking aim with his fingers at the eea
gulls sailing by and wishing he had
brought his gun. | asked him how he
liked the oysters. He replied:
"I liked the inside part bully, but my
teeth are little tender and couldn't
eat the hulls, but didn't want TO leave
anything l paid for, so | just put the
hulls in nv pocket and am going to
take 'em home and grind 'em up for he
chickens"
Sure enough, Breze had his pockets
full Of oyster shells. l hope he got back
to Polk county without being shanghaied
Mr.. West adds that when the waiter
in the oyster house asked Mr.. Gibson
how he wanted them served, that gem
tleman stated that he wanted 'em
killed, by gum"
Gibson is bit ola sport and. no doubt
got square with West before leaving
town. The sea gull story needs amend
ing. Mr.. Gibson knew it was unlawfu
TO shoot them, but he had his gun with
him. He did point his finger at some Of
them sailing around, they looked such
nice shooting, AMI as he has little
impediment in his speech here is what
he said "I'd give five dollars for sol
at one of them she-gulls."
