cover the real needs of the schools in
their charge.
AS the state agricultural college
comes to stand as it does more and
more for industrial education, it be-
comes more and more real factor in
our industrial life, and, therefore, comes
nearer realizing that for which it was
founded, namely, that the hand shall
be trained, as well as the heart and
head.
The cause of higher education in Or.
egon, am pleased to report, is in a
fourishing condition, and forms fit
ting climax to the work of the grades
There have been held during the past
two years three association meetings,
two of the western division and one of
the eastern.
These meetings have proven very
beneficial. The school conditions taken
as whole are very encouraging. That
needed changes should be made no one
can deny, but on every hand one can
not help noticing the changing condi-
tions. When new buildings are erected
they are generally built according to
modern plans; more attention is being
paid to the best methods of heating
lighting and sanitation; school grounds
have, in many instances, been made
more neat and tidy.

SCHOOL
RE REPORT
FILED
Number of Recommendations
Made by State Superln-
tendent Alderman

The sixteenth biennial report of j.
II. Aekermann, state superintendent of
public instruction, to the legislature
has been filed.
The report says that the present
school laws are in the main efficient,
but recommends a few changes, among
which is the passing of law making it
the duty of all county superintendents
to attend an annual conference.
Pass law authorizing the county su'
perintendent to appoint a board TO be
known as an eighth grade examining
board, whose duty it shall be to con
duet eighth grade examinations.
The state board of education has en-
deavored to comply with the law gov
erning the issuance of state papers rig
idly, both as to its letter and spirit, and
we believe that in its general workings
it is very satisfactory; hence l would
not recommend any change.
The course of study. of the Uniyersi'
ty of Oregon so closely eorrelates with
that of the course of study prepared by
the state board Of education for ele-
mentary and high schools that there is
now no break between the primary
school and the university.
Our normal schools are potent fac
tors in the uplifting and development
of our public school system. Their
graduates take deep interest in theil
work, and are imbued with prOfes
siOnal spirit, and are ever alert to dis

THH LAND FRAUD CASES.

The postponement Of the land fraud
cases until next April is a clear indica-
dion that they are to be dragged along
for political purposes.
The slurs that are thrown out at SEN
sabOr Mitchell show that the most exten-
a1ave use is to be made to down certain
1Ddividuals.
The persecution of Senator Mitchell
10y an imported prosecutor will not hurt
tthe senior senator a particle with Ore
gon people.
1t indicates the reprehensible depths
60 which politicians will stOop to clear
a man out of the way in the mad race
for official honors.
The attempt has been made by the
most dastardly inuendo to involve Capt.
s. b. Ormsby, of this city, and to make
him appear guilty.
The fact is, the newspapers have
played a most contemplate part in the
whole proceedings-adjudging men
guilty without trial or conviction.
1t is needless to say nothing is ac-
-complished by these processes in free
country and before fair-minded peo-
pie.
The high-handed method pursued will
even jeopardize the interests of justice
and make sentiment in favor of those
really guilty

BOSTON Tea Party Anniversary.

Boston, Mass, Dec. l6.-Under the
auspices Of the various patriotic and
historical societies exercises were held
today in celebration of the anniver-
sary of the Boston Tea Party, which
took place December is, 1878, when
tea ON which the eolonists were ex'
peeted TO pay the hated stamps tax
was dumped into the harbOr by prom
inent Bostonians disguised as Indians.
The party which had beeen organized
at Coles inn, now known as the Han
cock Tavern, swept down upon the
ships, boarded them and threw their
eargoes into the sea. This action has
been regarded as one Of the most pro-
vOeative Of the revolution, as the Brit
ish officers were never able to discover
a single man connected with the raid,
although It was led by Paul Revere
and other well-knOwn characters.
