Pup and Pupil.

1t has become the custom among i'll
bred people to apply the word pup
or puppy" as Il term of reproach, but
there Is nothing in its derivation to
warrant such a use. The editor might
apply the term to all school children in
not only an inoffensive but perfectly
legitimate way. for it is merely n con-
traction of the word pupil" which, III
It's turn. comes from the Latin pupil
lus. and means little boy or a little
girl. A dog is called a pup, perhaps
because it is a pet.-Chicago News.

TH|RTY-THREE PASSED EIGHTH GRADE

After grading all the papers Of the
pupils who have lately taken the
eighth grade examinations In Una
tilla county it has been found that
out of the 100 applicants for diplo-
mas only about SS passed. A num-
ber of the pupils in the district at
Milton were failed because the
grades were below the required aver
age.
1t has been found since the exami-
ners completed their work that a
number of the pupils from Milton
district are probably entitled to a
passing grade. Several were mark
ed mo paper" in history and other
wise had excellent papers and were
failed for that reason. It has Just
been learned that the history papers
had been mislaid by the examiners at
Milton and that they could not be
found for some time. They were To-
Gated after the examiners had COM
pleted tho work Of grading and for
warded to the county school superin-
tendent's office.
Superintendent Welles has not vet
ascertained Just what disposition will
be made of the case, but intends to
see that the pupils who were unjustly
failed receive fair treatment.

INDICTMENTS PROMISED.
Federal Grand Jury May Name 15s
Members of Furniture Trust.

There is reason TO believe that the
federal grand jury has voted an in
dictment against more than $50 MEM
bers of the furniture trust through
out the states of Oregon, Washing
ton, Idaho and California, says the
Portland Telegram.
The names of the defendants are
not obtainable, for the indictment
has not been returned into court. II
it is not likely that the return will Be
made for several days, owing to the
size of the indictment, and the fact
that much time will be necessary for
its preparation.
In scope and the number Of per
sons involved, the oregon furniture
trust case gives promise Of being one
of the most colossal aggregations u
defendants ever brought under the
ban of the law by one swoop OF &
grand jury. and its Importance will
be felt over the whole northwest.
1t is not probable that anything
definite regarding the action OF ths
grand jury will be made public foc
several days or until the usual course
of red tape has been followed. The
strictest secrecy is being observed By
United States Attorney Bristol and
Assistant James Cole.
The investigation conducted en-
tended through wide and labyrinth
ian ramification of schemes and al
legged conspiracies. Wheels within

That the rules recently made by
the board of sheep commissioners arc
constitutional is the opinion of Attor-
ney General Crawford.
In accordance with a proclamation
of the governor declaring that quar-
antine exists on sheep brought in
from the states of Idaho, Washington
and California, and directing the COM
mission to make such rules as theT
should deem expedient, certain to
quirements were made by the board
The rules were forwarded to the at
torney general and Dan P. Smythe,
secretary of the board, this morning
received letter from the attorney
general in which he said that in his
opinion the rules were not in conf o.
with either the state or federal consti-
tuition or void for any other reason
He said that he found, on the con-
trary, that states are authorized under
their police powers to make and en-
force such laws as will protect the
health and property of their citizens
SO long as the law is within the pro-
visions Of the police power there could
be no question as to the validity. But
81 1t goes beyond that o any material
extent, SO as to become a revenue
measure, then it would be Judged by
the rules relating to taxation. So far
as he has perused the law, the attsr-
ney general says that the new law is
not revenue measure, but is purely q
police regulation and there can be No
objection TO it on constitutional
grounds.
1t is expected that decision win
be had on the law in the near future
as the question will undoubtedly be
taken into the supreme court by some
of the outside sheepmen who wish to
Craze on Oregon ranges without re-
strictions.

William Coffman, a former member

citizen, was severely injured Saturday
night by fall from the street into the
excavation being made in front of the
odd Fellows building on Main street

istic lectureer on the corner and was
leaning against the temporary railing
at the edge of the pit, when It gave
way and he was precipitated onto the
gravel below. A shoulder blade and
two ribs were broken.
1t is thought that internal injuries
were also sustained, these being evil
denced by the severe pains across the
stomach. AS Mr., Coffman is large
man and one well along in years, 1t is
thought that his injuries may be dan
gerous.
