Unless the school board authorizes
the employment of an additional
teacher in the High school. one OF
the most successful features-the
cadet class--will be cut out this year
and II will mean that graduates of
the High school will not have the
advantage Of training for teachers.
The Cadet class was composed Of
members of the twelfth grade and
was conducted by Superintendent
Lieb, who introduced the feature. He
wanted to train graduates for posi-
tions as teachays and the success Of
the experiment Is evidenced by the
fact that seven OF the Cadet class
graduates are teaching school. six of
them IN Paducah. Two declined to
teach although assured they could
get positions.

RareSf u. S. Coin

The rarest United States coin, and
very likely the rarest in the world, re-
poses in the coin collection at the
Philadelphia mint. 1t is the $50 gold
piece dated 1S49 1t is unique, this be-
ing the only one in existence.
The coinage of this denomination Of
gold pieces was adopted by the gov
eminent in 1S49. On March of that
year, congress authorized the design
dies for which were duly cut and this
one copy struck in gold. A delay Oc-
Cured and the year 1850 came before
any more were struck. New dies,
bearing the latter date were therefore
made and this one coin of the issue
was put in the coin collection at the
mint. However, besides this original
coin, there were three proofs struck
from the dies Of the 1S49 double eagle
one each in copper, brass and firegflt.
The piece in copper brought a high
price at a recent auction sale.

Question is To Be Settled in The
Court.
TEST SUIT HAS BEGAN At OLYMPIA
is IMPORTANT MATTER TO ALL
SCHOOL DISTRICTS THE
STATE.

The attorney general has sued the
state hoard of land commissioners, and
the case will be submitted to Judge
Linn in the Thurston county superior
| court on briefs and pleadings. An i'm
portant question to all the school dis
tricts, cities and counties of the state
is involved. The action is a friendly
| one and is brought to enjoin the pro-
posed purchase by the state board of
$1,000 bonds of school district No. SO,
Snohomish county, The relator con-
tends that the state board cannot pur-
chase the bonds because they are H.
legal, being issued in excess OF the
districts limit of Indebtedness.
The contention is based upon the de-
cision Of the state supreme court in
the case of the state on the relation of
Jones against McGraw reported in u
Washington SAP, where it was held
that the proceeds from the sale of
bonds cannot be treated as a credit
until paid.
The state courts recognize unpaid
taxes as credit and permit such to be
charged off to reduce the debts of
county to come within the limit 1t is
hoped that the supreme court will take
a similar view with respect to the
bonds. Where the new bonds and the
debt they are issued to retire are both
charged as a debt, it is asserted in the
demurrer in this case, it makes it prac-
tically impossible for many districts in
the state to refund. The result is that
the districts are unable to take ad-
vantage of the reduction in interest
charge a refunding would permit and
money that might be saved from inter
est and spent for schools. roads and
other improvements is paid out at the
old high rates in vogue when the debt
was first contracted.

PENDLETON, Or, April 1a.-Perry
Gould, president of the Umatilla Coun-
ty WoOlgrowers' association, has called
meeting of the association to meet in
the Commercial club rooms in this city,
April p, for the purpose Of preparing
OregOn's case to be presented at the
meeting in Walla Walla April 27. Dan
Smythe, the secretary, will also present
communication at this meeting, which

letter from the president of the United

WOOlgrowers' association.
Had Best Right.
Mr.. PinchOt, the chief forester, in
explaining how it came that Washing
ton sheepmen were granted more priv
eleges in Oregon than Oregon sheep
men, admits that the joint committee
upon whose recommendation the allot-
ments We're made, consisted of three
Oregon men and eight Washington
men, and that the forest officers who
made the final recommendation upon
which the action was taken were both
Washington men.
1T is quite true that more Wash
ingtOn sheep are allotted to the Wena-
ha reserve in Oregon than Oregsn
sheep said Mr. Pinchot. 1.-The Wash
ington owners were granted range In
Oregon for the simple reason that they
had the best right to it, on account of
long continued prior use. Most Of the
Wenaha reserve is comparatively in
accessible to Oregon sheep, and Oregon
owners were not entitled to the range
granted to Washington owners because
they had not made the same prior use
of it,"
