Regular Examinations to Be
Held This Week
SUPT. MEYERS TO HAVE CHARGE
Schools All Over the County in Flour
ishing Condition-New

The regular November examinations
for teachers certificates will be held
| in the superior court room in the
court house Thursday and Friday Of
this week The examinations will be
conducted by Superintendent j. Ell
mer Myers There will be several ap-
plicants take the examination.
Il do not expect a very large class
at this time" said Superintendent Ny
ers Nearly all the teachers in the
county are employed and there are not
very many new ones coming in from
other places. There are some teach
ers here however, who will not take
the examination this month. There
are recently from the east and are
looking for positions. Inasmuch as
the last legislature abolished the reg
ular February examination, 1t fur
nishes these class of teachers an Op-
portuniy to let this months examina-
ton go by. Then they can apply to
me for a temporary certificate, which
under the law 1 am compelled to issue.
They can then secure positions and
teach for five months before another
examination is held, the next being
in May next year. AS rule they will
have finished their contracts and left
the county. Is Of course, this will not
be felt so much in Walla Walla coun
ty as it will be in other counties. II
have reliable information that in a
number of counties on the sound there
are numerous teachers of this class.
Il have just returned from a tour
of the county and 1 found all the
schools in f1ourishing condition. The
attendance in nearly. all districts is
large and the work is being carried on
in an exceptionally good manner"
The directors of school district No
Sc, in Snake river, are having a new
school house erected. The building
will be completed in a short time and
will be we'll equipped. In addition a
! horse shed is to be constructed. John
Geyer of Prescott has the contract
for the erection of the buildings, at
an estimated cost of 500.

SHIELDS CIRCUIT
New theatrical Venture Of
Edward Shields.
FOR VAUDEVILLE PURPOSES
Portland Manager Will Send Shows
Through the Inland Empire
Cities.
VAUDEVILLE PURPOSES

Edward Shields, Of Portland, is or
ganizing a new theatrical circuit for
eastern Oregon and Washington, and
will send out his first show over the
line next week. The circuit has been
formed for vaudeville purposes only,
and towns IN the circle are the most
prosperous throughout the Inland EN-
pire. The towns on the circuit are
Walla Walla, The Dalles, PendletOn,
La Grande, Baker City and Sumpter
AS these towns cannot support a show
for seven days every week, Manager
Shields has arranged to make short
stands instead of long engagements
For instance, The DalIes and Pendle-
ton will divide one week; Walla &Valla
another, and SumBter one night Ba-
ker City four nights and La Grande
two nights will account for the third
week, thus giving performers three
weeks on the road from the time they
leave Portland until they get to the
end of the circuit. This circuit will be
operated in connection with the Ed
son circuit, which has houses in Ia
coma, Seattle, Victoria, Vancouver and
many other towns in Washington and
British Columbia.

Esteemed by the Queen.

Count -Benkendorf. the Russian ambas-
sador. is a particular favorite OF Queen
Alexandra, who learned to know and ap
preciate him at Copenhagen. where nc
was stationed for many years as Mus
covite minister, and where he became
persona Eratissfma with all the mem
bers Of the reigning house Of Denmark.
Thanks to these exceptionally close
and friendly relations between the pFin-
cipaI ENJOYS accredited to the court OF
ST. James and the British reigning fam
lily. the position of the diplomatic corps
in London is a particularly agreeable
one, far more so than at most Of the
big European capitals, since the great
world at St Petersburg. at Vienna. at
Madrid, and in Paris rather holds aloof
from the members OF the diplomatic
corps, from the ambassadors down TO

Ex-senator Henry c. Davis received
a letter this morning from Charles N.
Pepper, recently appointed by the Presi-
dent a special commissioner to South
America in connection with the pro-
iected Psn-American railroad.
The letter was written in New York
last Saturday. just before Mr.. Pepper
sailed on his mission. and after he had
enjoyed a long conference concerning
the proposed railroad with Andrew
Carnegie. Mr.. Carnegie has agreed to
act as fiscal agent for the project, and
raise the sZ00. 000 coo necessary to com
pIete the connecting links.
In his letter. Nr. Pepper informs Mr.
Davis that MI. Carnegie is greatly en-
Unused over the scheme and reiterated
his promise 10 obtain the finances
necessary. Mr Carnegie urged NJ

influence TO secure hearty cooperation

MANY LIVES SAVED
BY REVENUE CUTTERS
Wisdom Of Presidents Order to Cruise
in Winter Season.

United States revenue cutters sta
toned on the Atlantic Coast north Of
Cape Hatteras have recently closed a
season of winter cruising which has
proved many times the value of the
Presidents order commanding these cut
tiers to cruise daily TO aid vessels in dis
tress During this season-December 1,
1902. to April l. 19C3-the cutters went
to the assistance Of thirty-six vessels
in distress and relieved 10 people in
danger of losing their lives. The ships
saved we're valued at S5S6.S0e and their
.cargoes at $zS2-799
Dry figures have little significance and
it is impossible TO express by mere sta
tistics an idea of the service rendered
to humanity and commerce In almost
every case the cutters we're successful
in their efforts 10 save life and prop
erty. The cutters which cruised in these
waters were the Dallas, Dexter. Ores
ham. Onondaga. Seminole, Tuscarora.
Window. and Woodbury.. These vessels
covered in their winter cruising 40, GOO
nautical miles This distance was prac-
ttcally all covered in the day time. for
their orders do not require them to
cruise at night, when, indeed, it would
be next to impossible TO see a vessel IN
distress.
From now till next December the cut
tiers viii cruise at the discretion OF
their captains. or under special orders
from the department.

OURS 4 CONQUEST OF
THE WORLDS MART
James 7. Hill Talks on Securities and
Industrial Supremacy.

NEW YORK, April 2f.-Ameriea must
fight a battle for world markets, ac-
eording TO James ]. Hill. and win It,
il she is to gain industrial supremacy.
The keystone of our prosperity, he be-
deves. is Industrial welfare, and 20
keep it from falling and to place it N
an impregnable position, it is essential
that America should be able TO place
commodities and manufactured articles
wherever there is a demand at cheaper
price than any other nation. With this
object in view, among others. he said,
the Northern Securities Company was
formed.
In referring to this question today
as one of the objects toward which he
had been reaching in his upbuiIding Of
the Great Northern Railroad and
Pacific feet, followed by the formation
OF the Northern Securities Company,
Mr.. Hill said:
The boundaries Of the United states
should not hedge in our ambition We
must look farther-iuto Europe and Asia
and Africa. if we are to progress. We
must build ships and cross the ocean,
meet competition and conquer
The day mas come for competition
not between individuals as such or
States as such. but between nations.
The future Of our Industrial prosperity
depends upon our conquest Of the
worlds markets
TO meet the necessities Of the occa-
sion We must control commerce. not only
from New York to san Francisco. but
on the seas We must meet Germany
and Belgium and England in the Orient,
they through the Suez Canal we through
the Pacific in our OWE ships That is
the reason the Minnesota was built. and
that the Great Northern Steamship Com
pany was formed. It was one of the
reasons for the formation OF the North
ern Securities Company
We are not stock jobbers or manipE-
Iators. It is the world market. not the
stock market, that We wish to conquer.
The public does not understand this. 1t
must be educated
"Our railroads must be well intrenct-
ed. Equally strong must be our steam
ship lines. At the launching OF the Min
nesota last week I said: In steamship
transportation we are children. Today
any old tramp steamer Of any nation
that spies an American ship putting into
a harbor with bundle Of freight viii
shout Drop that bundlei" and imme-
diately the bundle drops That eondI-
ton is true, but there must be a change.
The competition extends all the way
through from the production-the trans
portation to the cars and laying down
the production in foreign ports It IS
this competition which must be met
Mr.. Hill indicated the feasibility Of
Pan-Amertcan railroad. which was re-
Gently reported to be a product Of the
near future.
If you should erect a Marcont sta
ton OF the peaks OF the mountains. and
could send train along the line o.
tlse wireless message 1t would be FEAST
BILE" he said. we crossed two noun
tain ranges. and that is enough for me-
