If you feel tagged out, listless and

summer weathers. These symptoms
indicate that tonic is needed that will
create a healthy appetite, make diges-

impart natural activity to the liver.

THIRD DISTRICT.
Special to the News.

Special to the News.
In this district at Hickory Grove, is
the 22nd school district. 1t was so
made by the county court about the
year 1895. The design of it was to give
us better school which it did. At the
January term Of the same court last year
she acted very prudently in enlarging
our district which gave us money G.
nOugh to employ a good teacher and
run about months in the year with
out injury to or interference with any
other school, but the legislature has
played havoc with our school by recent
ly passing law requiring all school
districts to be co-extensive with the ci-
vii districts. 1t may do fairly we'll in
some districts where it will not shorten
the term of any school, but it cannot
fail to cut ours from s to about months.
While we are submissive 60 the law we
are not in favor of any system that will
shorten the term of school, Better
lengthen it instead. What we need is
better schools and longer terms and any
method that will give them to us should
be hailed with gladness by every friend
OF education. Why not give our child
rem good practical education at home?
1t can be done by using the school fund
in such a way as will promote the edu-
cation If the law would permit, but the
law requiring all school districts and
civil districts to be co-extensive will be
very detrimental to education. Many a
child is reared by poor parents and has
to be trained in the free school for their
parents are not able to pay board and
tuition while they go to college. 1t is
a shame on = legislature to enact law
| that can't fail to rob poor little children
of about half OF their school days. just
why it passed such law without max
| ing provision for special schools is more
than we can understand. Patron.

Awful Rush over Canal.


Washington, Nov. 2O.-The commits
sion from Panama, accompanied by
Panama Minister NJ. PHILIPPE Bunau
varilIa, was received at the State de-
partment today by Secretary Hay.
The exchanges, while informal, we're
most cordial and were in English.
DR.. Amador informed the secretary
that the commissioners had carefully
inspected the Hay Bunau Varilla
treaty and desired to take this oppor-
tunity of expressing entire satisfac-
ton with its terms.
DR.. Amador assured the secretary
that no time would be lost in its ratifi-
cation by the Panama government.
He then paid high tribute to the
services which the Panama minister
had performed in promptly negotiat-
ing the convention.
The secretary and the commission
ers then discussed the future of the
republic. 1t was pointed out by the
minister, that the junta felt that it
must first accomplish the mission for
whichit was called, namely, ratifying
the new treaty, and then it would turn
its attention to the equally important
though ''less immediate" work of es-
tablishing more usual form of gov
eminent.
Secretary Hay expressed deep in
tere4t in the new state.

From I. & G.. y. Territory.
Pursuant to call of the immigration
and passenger departments of the 1. &
G. n. railroad company quite num-
Der of real estate agents from along
the line of the 1. s; G. n. met in Pal
estine at the city hall this morning to
perfect an organization.
General Passenger Agent d. j. Price
briefly stated the object of the meet
ing, and Mr.. J. F. Weeks of Palestine
was called to the chair, and Mr.. H. L.
Wright of this city was made tempo
rary secretary.
Mr.. R. r. Claridge of the l. & G. N.
immigration department made good
practical talk on the advantages and
necessity of organization, and his talk
covered many practical points.
Mr.. Peddie of st. Louis, real estate
agent, was present, and spoke of the
difficulties in the way of this section
in the matter of attracting farmers
from the north and east. Said he had
been here some days, and had seen
farm and virgin lands of the county.
He said we had good soils, and COM
bined with delightful climate, could
grow to perfection almost anything,
but he said he noticed a general ap-
pearance of slovenness; with our
farmers such thing as fall blowing
was not known. The fields grew up
in rank weeds and grass, the refuge of
destructive bugs and insects. Said
they should use log drag, crush down
weeds, cotton and corn stalks, burn
them and pillow under the soil. Fields
rank in weeds made bad impression
on those he wished to impress with
the lands and country. de recon-
mended honesty and candid dealings
with those who buy. Imperfect titles
is this sections greatest drawback.
He recommended scientific farming
and fewer acres. Scientific farming
he said consisted in growing two bales
of cotton where one grew before, two
ears of corn where one grew before,
two blades of grass where one grew
before.
At 1:30 committee of five was APP

New Canal Treaty Goes There for

canal treaty here until it was ratified

OPEN RIVER-HOW TO GET 1T.

Major Langftt's letter to Cover
nor Chamberlain several days age
shows the Oregon Legislature how
to bring about early construction OF
the Cello canal. The National
Government will begin construction
just as soon as it obtains ground
and right of way free of cost. Such
was the recommendation of the
Board of Government Engineers,
approved by the Chief of Engineers
and the Secretary of War.
Here, then, is the opportunity
that has been long awaited. By
an expenditure Of from $4,000 to
100000 the state of Oregon can
induce the United States to expend
S4,O00,000 for the long sought open
river. If the Legislature of this
state could appropriate money for
a more profitable purpose, it has
never yet done so.
Oregon may labor through the
courts, state and Federal, to con-
demn ground for the portage; it
NAV invest S165 600 in that enter
prise, and yet, when done, it may
find the portage Of no utility, since
Three-Mile Rapids, leading up to
the lower terminus of the road,
would not be navigable. The state
does not provide means for remoy-
ing the distractions in these rapids.
The work devolves reasonably up
on the National Government. The
United States is ready to perform
that duty. Its plans include re-
movaI of the distractions. And it
doubtless would make Three Mile
Rapids navigable whenever it be-
gan construction of the canal, inas-
much as that is naturally the first
