LENTEN FOOD HIGH.
Cold Storage Eggs Exhausted-Fish Prices
Soar.

The chickens strike" said a Washing
ton Market egg dealer yesterday. chuckling at his
remark. land until they patch II up eggs are
agoin' to sell high"
Eggs are retailing now in the market at 40 cents
a Dozen which is the highest price IN years at the
BEGINNING of Lent All eggs TO be had at present
are coming from up the State. one OF the dealers
said. The cold storage article has given out
tirely, which fact partly accounts for the high
prices.
Fish likewise very high. as the observer Of
Lent is bound TO find out TO her sorrow. The long
SMELL OF cold weather accounts for this. The shores
and bays are so thoroughly frozen that the fish
srrnen must 60 out to deep water 20 cast their
nets Roe shad bring from Is cents to 81 % apiece
Red sDappers Is cents pound. goldfish 10
cents suelts IS cents. halbut % cents striped pan
bass D. cents boiling bass 90 cents pound.
During the first part OF the Lenten season tho
cold storage houses will be able 20 furnish fish Ia
moderate amounts. Two-thirds OF the fish now
selling are cold storage, but the supply Is
very limited, and the unusual demand Is sure TO
exceed the supply. Oysters and clans also are
scarce but the price hundred for oysters remains

SCHOOL A F o

The Journal believes that at the close
Of this year there is an opportunity for
the Salem Board of Education to take
n step in the direction of reform.
AS is we'll known the city, county and
state require all bills to be made out
on a regular blank form, fully itemized
and sworn to.
The bill becomes a voucher, and is
numbered ad filed. There are suitable
blank spaces for the names of the com
mittee authorizing the purchase or SER
vice performed.
There are spaces for the attest of
the clerical officer and the go. X" of
the auditing committee. Some of these
forms are now complied with, but the
bills come in On all kinds of paper
scraps, and some of them are not prop
erly vouched for.
This is not a reflection on the school
board, but the inevitable working out
of a bad system, which should give
place to a better system of accounting.
The school district is growing rapid
ly, and should adopt some plan of pur-
chasing supplies at wholesale, and from
the lowest bidder, instead of carrying
open accounts.
There is another growing abuse, and
that is letting contracts without bids,
for bills that run into the hundreds of
dollars. These are only suggestions of
common business sense, and not criti-
cisms.
Even lodges and other bodies trans
act their business on these plans, and
the board of education should take time
by the forelock, and get out of a rut
that is sure to cause trouble in future.

THE NEW HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING

There is great public interest in the
erection of the new high school building
that has been ordered by this district.
The report of the board of education
in favor of erecting a Substantial
brick building'' was approved by the
electors meeting.
The board of education has just pur-
chased the additional lot that gives the
school district a fine half-block site on
Center street, in the heart of the city.
The question of the character of the
building to be erected must be left
largely to the building committee, who
are Messrs. Byrd, Lee and Condit.
The decision to build of brick pre-
cludes the consideration of stone, SON
crete or frame structure.
Fortunately good building brick can
be made at Salem, and common brick
are sold for 81 per thousand, and
pressed brick at $15 to $50.
There is difference of opinion as to
the style of brick structure to be fol
lowed. Some advocate veneered brick
over n frame structure, some hollow
brick walls, and some solid walls with
Turing.
There are houses built on the latter
plan, lath and plastered on strips att
tached TO the brick walls, leaving an
air space so as to ensure dry walls.
1t is a fact that on the south and west
sides solid brick walls cannot be kept
from becoming water-soaked, ever rot
ting the Turing to which lath and plas.
ter are attached.
Hollow brick walls, with Turing on
the south and west sides would ensure
an absolutely dry structure.
These suggestions are thrown out foi
what they are worth, and for the pur
pose of creating a wide interest in the
proper construction of an important
public building,
Ii is not yet known what plan th'
| board viii adopt of securing plans anC

the services of an architect.
One plan is TO buy plans and specif-
cations outright, and then employ a SUI
p~erintendent of construction to see that
they are complied with.
Another plan is to select an architect,
have him make plans and specifications,
and supervise construction. In this way
the ideas Of the board can be embodied
in the building.
On this plan the building committee
could get the benefit of all the architect
knew about school houses, all that the
board knew and practical suggestions
from the city superintendent and prin-
cipals.
Any attempt to get plans to favor
certain contractors will be discounte-
nanced by the board of education, if
they are the servants of the people.
The work of the architect should be
under their direction. His time and SER
vices should be theirs. Then let all con
tractors have an equal chance, and build
early to get the best figures.

ants paid their money. Their patents
were issued in due course, after the in.
vestigators had received their stipend
That money was used by the claim.
ants is not denied, but that it ever
went into the pockets of Mitchell OF
Hermann is an unwarranted assertion,
and cannot be held against the men
who are now under FIRE.
A number Of politicians of various
shades and breeds have made i%nsinua-
lions during the past two years that
Congressman Hermann was guilty OF
fraud, but they have failed to offer a
scintilla of evidence, and as the grand
jury investigation progresses the at
tacks fall fat, and it is doubtful if an
other indictment will be returned by
that body.
The powers behind the prosecutions
do not care to get the little perJurers
and bribers. They do not care to get
the great big land thieves, like the rail
road corporations. They want a few
leading politicians and office holders in
the state Of Oregon, and they will give
all kinds of inducements to the real
thieves if they will turn Estates evil
dence.v and tell things that would cast
a suspicion on the men now in control
of the political situation in Oregon.
There is more spite work than any
thing else against these men, and while
the government is expanding its energy
in that direction, the real timber Ian
thieves and boodlers will make their es-
cape, and the people will never get a
chance TO see the usurpers of the pub
lie domain punished.
The Journal is ready to assist in ev-
cry way in the prosecution Of the guilty
parties, but when a direct effort is made
to pass the main criminals and should
err the responsibility on men entirely
free from connection, it believes, as do
most of the people of the state, that
alone prompts the prosecution.
Turn the search light on the little
fellows and on the big fellows, but do
it for the purpose of bringing them to
Justice, and not for revenge.
