There is war in school district No.
los, Holdman, the same being brought
on by an attempt of the directors of
the district to remove the teacher,
Isaac H. Gobbell from office.
Evidently the actions of the above
teacher were not what they should
be in the judgment of the three
householders whose duty it is to
guard the interest of the school for
n short time ago they filed a report
with the county superintendent of
which the following is an extract:
1--WE, w. L. Gurrsnt, j. 7. Thorne,
and L. C. Johnson, directors of school
district No. los, of Umatilla county.
render the following decision based
upon testimony heard before the said
board:
First; We find that the said Isaac
n. Gobbell did assault and beat one
Ray Etter without sufficient cause or
provocation.
Second; that the said Isaac H
Gobbell was angry and made no in
vestigation to find out who was to
blame or who started the trouble.
Third; that the said Isaac H. Goeb-
bell did use partiality in melting out
the punishment.
Fourth; that these findings are
sufficient reasons why the said Isaac
H. Gobbell should not continue
teaching the school,"
However, the said Isaac H. Cob
bell' was not content to accept the
actions of the directors as final and
: accordingly took advantage of his
right to appeal his case to the county
= superintendent. The same was done
in a brief which might pass as a SUI
preme court document. Among the
many points upon which the directors
% "erred" are the following:
1.-THE school board erred in finding
that the teacher, Isaac H. Gobbell,
assaulted and beat Roy Etter without
sufficient cause or provocation.
"The school board erred in finding
that the said Isaac H. Goebbell was
mad as is commonly understood by
the term while correcting Charles
Paris and Roy Etter.
''The school board erred in finding
that the said Isaac II. Gobbell used
partiality in melting out the punish
ment on Roy Etter and Charley Par
rish.
''The school board erred in not
finding that if Charles Paris did not
receive as many strokes as Roy Etter
the cause was that of the cracker OF
the whip flying off instead of a par.
tiaI administration of punishment.
"The school board erred in no
finding that II was purely an acci

DAINTIES FROM DIRT
Some MmUeLs Wrought IN UtiiizG-
ton of Waste.

Originally beautifully situated amid well
wooded hillsides. golden cornhelds or verdant

times the mounds OF unprohtable rubbish. I'm

derived from the atmosphere. thrive on such I'M
productive soil.
In other parts this waste may be utilized IN
retaining or forming land: but this is only
possible where special geographical conditions
prevail. at the mouths OF rivers marsh
or bog land. At the estuary Of the Tees miles
OF sandy marsh have been recovered nom the
sea by tipping Stag refuse from the innumerable
blasting furnaces which abound on both banks
Of the river. This reclamation OF land is effected
as follows: An embankment of Stag is pushed
out from the land above highwater mark. and
gradually extended outward over the marshy
ground covered by the tides. This embankment
is extended along the line OF low-water level
until a large tract Is inclosed. BY continuous
additions the bank is bToadened until OF suf-
fcient strength to resist the incoming Of thu
water. The inclosed space is then filed IN and
allowed TO settle down. and where few years
before was naught but wilderness OF desOla-
ton a thriving town quickly springs into being.
Minor uses OF this waste from iron smelling
are numerous. Stag wool. silica wool. is IN
appearance and properties similar TO asbestos.
