EQUALITY OF INTELLECT.

The Review Of Reviews for Janu-
ary in a brief editorial mention OF
rss Civic Federation banquet given in
NV York. during the Christmas holi-

'BaIoor leaders and representatives OF

Every individual teacher in Umatil-
Ia county will be held responsible for
the educational exhibit that is sent
from this county to the Lewis and
Clark fair. The very life work and
professional standard of the teachers
of this state are now at stake. Edu-
Gators from every state in the Union
will closely scrutinize the work of Or
egon pupils at the fair next summer.
Doubts are entertained in the East,
as to the excellence of Western educa-
tional standards, and school facilities.
The exhibit at the Lewis and Clark
fair, from Oregon counties, should
dispel every doubt and fix the West
ern standard indelibIy upon the edu-
cational records of the nation. Now
is the time to vindicate the West.
Now is the time to give a true inter-
probation of its intellectual and tech
nical spirit and If Oregon teachers
fail to do this, it is they who must
still rest under the distrust of the
East. The work and spirit are pres
ent in the West. and all that remains
to be done. is to collect an education
al exhibit, truly typical and represen-
tative of Western standards.

The Eddy corporation tax law has

state since it went into effect less

will be slow to repeal or amend. for
the worse. such a fruitful source of

The most inexcusable pagan in the
world is not the naked cannibal who
hurls his lances at the sun and drinks
blood from a cup made from human
skull-it is the civilized man, who.
enjoying all the splendors of ciyiliza-
tion. yet has the morals and inclina-
Iions OF the savage. 1t is the money
hungry, lustful man, who tramples
down the beautiful, sublime and di-
vine in human life, for the satislac-
ton of his appetite, for the gratifi-
cation of his selfish and narrow aims.
The cannibal is excusaple because he
knows no better. This other pagan
