WHY TEACHERS ARE SCARCE.

As illustrating the general tendency of schoo
boards throughout the state to reduce the salaries
of educators we reproduce the following from the
Albany Herald:
Some time ago word was sent out from Baker
City that number of school districts in that county
would not be able to hold regular terms of school
this year owing to the scarcity of teachers and
where several districts have thus far been unable to
secure the teachers they requireno but that there
are enough teachers here to supply the demand, but
they are not the kind required and the county super
intendents office is overrun with requests for GER
tain class of teachers that are not readily available
There are five school districts in this county that
want experienced teachers three of them having
pressed desire for male instructors only. The sal
aries paid in the districts asking to be supplied are
from $40 to $55 per month for terms of from six to
eight months Four of the districts have eight
months school,
1t not surprising that teachers should be scarce
in Lane county. Indeed if the salaries mentioned
prevail generally throughout that prosperous coun-
ty it is remarkable that there is ateacher within its
borders.
School teaching requires thorough education. 1t
is one of the least agreeable tasks imaginable, and
yet one of the most important avocations of all.
Educators have much to do with formation of the
character of pupils, and generally shape the lives of
the members of the rising generation. Yet we find
Lane county school boards offering $40 to $55 for
school teachers Why, the proprietor of livery
stable would not have the temerty to offer his stable
boy such wages! The common laborer makes more
money, else he could not exist. ~at. es.sa* 'aa
If school teacher is worth anything, he is worth
more than Lane county wants to pay Competent
teachers should be employed Low salaries necessar-
lily mean incompetent teachers, and incompetent
teachers mean incompetent educational facilities.
The standard of the schools can be raised only by
increasing the wages of educators. We pay our
public officers fairly good salaries and there is no
valid reason why teachers should not be paid quite
as well.

OATS FOR THE WORLD.

| w. j. Armstrong, one of the enterprisng farmers
of Skagit county, recently harvested ITO bushels OF
marketable oats from four-aere field says the St.
attic Post lntelligencer The yield averaged lttl,
over III bushels per acre. 1t is probably entitled
go on record as the greatest oat yield known
in the history of agriculture The field is situated
the most wonderful oat-growing district on earth
The farmer who does not produce over 100 bushels
per acre is considered poor man in handling tie
soil.
The Swinomsh flats comprise one of the richest
sections of Washington. The soil is perfect and has
the appearance of being forever fertile. Fields that
have been cultivated for 80 years continue to give
annual returns of the best cereals. The stran ~
may travel for Is or 20 miles in any direction be-
fore reaching the borders of the great oat field 1t
is dotted with modern farms carrying all the marks
of prosperity. The homes are large and finely fur
nished. Every modern convenience possible for
ruralists may be found in profusion
Estimates made by the department of agriculture
and published in the September issue of the Crop
Reporter place the oat crop of the United States at
60,219,2l7 bushels. OF this output of the great
cereal nearly 100000 bushels will be shipped from
the little county of Skagit Fenced in by dikes, and
divided into scores of individual tracts, this min
iature world is the wonder of agrcultursts, 1t is
the home of the intensive farmer. Dairying and
fruitgrowing have their places in the commercial
fields, Every avenue of soil culture is occupied to
its fullest possible limit.
The success in oat culture in Skagt county sim
ply illustrates what may be accomplished in other
sections of Washington With climate for all pur-
poses and variety of soils for producing every
grass and cereal, there are no bounds for possible
future growth and development. What the farmers
of the Swinomish flats have done may be duplicated
in scores of similarly situated localities The eoun.
try is open and bidding for settlers and home build
ers Nature has made a paradise in the forest and
called to men and women of the world to come and
build homes within its enclosure

AMERICAN THRIFT.

The statement that was made the other day by
Chairman Tuttle of the savings bank section of the
American Bankers Association to the effect that the
aggregate of savings bank deposits in this country
now amounts to over So 30OO0O0O0O constitutes pref
ty conclusive evidence that the American people are
very "forehanded'' race These deposits are
owned by over 100000 persons nearly onetenth
of the entire population of the United States.
Encouraging and impressive as this evidence Of
American thrift is, however, it only partly reveals
the whole story In addition to this legion of savings
bank depositors 100000 persons in the year 1900
owned homes of their own in this country and of this
number of homes about 100000 were free Of in
cumbrance. Furthermore in 1903 nearly 100000
persons connected with assessment life insurance
companies and orders were carrying policies aggre-
eating sc, ,5OO.00OOO0 and 17,600,000 persons were
carrying policies in the regular, old lne life insur-
ance companies amounting to $10,50U,0O0O00 1t IL
well known, too, that large number of persons of
moderate or small means have investments in real
estate railroad bank and other classes Of securities
After making due allowance for the duplication of
names of persons in the foregoing tategdres, it will
be readily seen that very large percentage Of the
population of the United States consists of persons
who have made, or who are making; material pro.
vision against the future.
That this widespread spirit of thrift Is contribut-
ing vastly to the upbuilding of the nation can not
be denied 1t is conductive to the greater stability
of the republic 1t is the foe Of riot, lawlessness
and disorder It is opposed to anything resembling
anarchy. 1t is conducive to the increase of good
citizenship and to the development of the best that
there is in each individual

The Korean emperor has for number of years
had an American adviser, the son of the American
admiral Sands but the young man has now quit on
account of the ascendency of japanese influence at
the Korean court. He was appointed by President
Cleveland second secretary of the legation at To-
kio, and was continued in that service by the sue
ceeding administration but left it shortly to as
sumo the advisory duties mentioned Little is known
of his performance in that capacity but the ruler
named has kept out of the war raging on either
side of him and even in his own territory he was
probably the recipient of sensible counsel and gave
heed to it till a change of circumstances made a
change of policy desirable. Korea began by fearing
the Russians more than the japanese making strong
er efforts to propitate them. 1t seems that the
Japs are stronger than their foes, and, moreover,
that they mean the Koreans no harm, but rather
stretch forth hand of protection over them. The
returning counsellor brings back a fund of diplo
matte and statesmanlike experience not common in
one so young and if he chooses to write book about
it can probably tell us good deal more about the
politics of the land of the Morning Calm only few
years ago remote and mysterious as the mountains

proposition had a fair majority,
and those who had opposed any
action this fall concluded that
the best thing to do was to unite
with the other members of the
committee and get the best sys-
tenn possible. Accordingly, at
the evening session, when Mr..
Amsden, as a chairman of the
sub committee, presented a set
of rules for the regulation of the
primary vote, they were &C.
cepted with a few minor,
changes and adopted unan-
imously.
Among the motions made to
change the rules was one pre-
scented bv Mr.. G. Hulsman in
regard to the qualification of
a voter at the primaries-strik-
ing out the clause which requires
a voter to declare that he will
vote for the republican nominees,
state and national. Messrs.
Smu]l, Rlx, Amsden and Bentley
opposed the resolution, and the
universal disapprobation of those
present was exhibited against
this attempt to permit democrats
to participate in the republican
primaries. 1t was an astonish-
ing thing to have presented in
a convention of republicans.
Had Mr.. Hulsman's motion pre-
vailed, it would have made the
primary system a farce, which
the party would have been glad
to have abolished at the first
opportunity. Happily, Mr.. Huls-
man withdrew his resolution
before d vote was taken, which
would have shown him how
unfortunate he was in his esti-
mate of the good sense and loyal
ty of the republicans present.
The dates of the primary cleo
ton was set for October 8, and
the Rules and Regulations adopt
ed to govern the same may be
found in this issue of the paper.
and should be carefully read by
the republicans of the county,
that the primary system may be
given a fair opportunity to prove
it's usefulness.

The Twin Brooks News of last
week contained an article that
was false and extremely mislead-
ing, and q reflection upon Mr.
J. N. Stafford, the present deputy
county treasurer, who was for
four years treasurer of the coun-
ty. AT the instance of Mr.. SAT
ford we spent a short time on
Monday going over the bank
record in the t~reasurer's Office,
which shows the balance on
deposit in each bank at the close
Of each day of the four years
during which Mr.. Stafford was
county treasurer. The whole
explanation Of the figures as pub
lished by the News in regard to
those bank deposits is made by
the statement that the banks
bid for definite amounts of the
county moneys. Thus Gold &
Co. had bid for $12, 600, The Far
mers Bank had bid for $40, 600,
The Merchants Bank for $1,000
and the First State Bank for
$1,000. Each bank paid interest
on the county funds up to these
amounts but were not required
to pay on any amount over the
banks bid. 1t has been the en-.
deavor of the county %treasurers
to keep q pro rata of the amounts
as given above in each of the
banks, and the books will show
that this has been done and that
no favoritism was shown Gold &
Co. The figures of deposits as
published in the News show this
Of itself, when it is known that
the treasurer was in duty bound
to give the several banks the pro.
portion Of deposits which their
bids called for. The daily bank
deposit book shows that this was
done, and that each bank had as
near as possible its fair proper
ton of money bid for.
The writer Of the article in the
News must have been Ignorant
Of the fact that the banks bid
for certain amounts of the county
funds, and that the treasurer is
in fairness bound to keep the de.
posits in each bank as nearly as
possible in proportion with the
accepted bid Of the bank, or he
would never have attempted to
make political capital out of the
figures given.
Mr.. Stafford invites anyone
who Is interested in the matter
TO drop into the treasurer's Office
ana examine the bank deposit
book, where the daily accounts
Of the treasurer with the banks
may be seem. We make this ex-
planation in simple Justice 10 him.
