CAN'T GET TEACHERS.
New Britain Schools Have Difficulty in
Filling Vacancies.

AAAkhA NNG@hSASSs
New Britain, July 15.-G. A. Stewart.
formerly superintendent of the local
schools, in speaking of the difficulty in
getting teachers, makes the statement
that graduates of the commercial course
in the high school and business colleges
can get better places for the same time
spent on their education than those who
prepare to teach.
A commercial high school graduate
can get more money the first year out
of school than a person who continues
at school two years longer. A normal
school and business college graduate
can get more money the first year than
a graduate of a school. The result of
so many young people going into busi-
ness will be that school committees will
be obliged to increase the salaries paid
to teachers

Quiet in Borough.

In the West Haven borough court
yesterday morning three common
DRINKS and two breach Of peace cases
were the sum total of Saturday night
and Sunday arrests, showing that de-
spite the immense crowds affairs were
conducted orderly.
The most serious case was that Of a
young italian, giving the name Of Poll,
who was locked up for. causing a gen
eral disturbance. Poll insisted on sing
ing at the top Of his voice In several
prominent drinking places. 1t became
necessary to place him under arrest.
Polls singing cost him 50 and the Of
f1cers' fees, as recommended by Pros
ecuting Attorney c. K. Bush. He paid

A LUCKY OMEN.
Would Have Had Forty Days of 1t Had
1t Started to Rain Yesterday.

Luckily yesterday was fair or it
might otherwise be the forerunner of
forty days rain. For it was st. swith-
ems day, and the legend which comes
down over a thousand years says that
If rain should fall on the saints day,
it would be followed by forty success
i've days of wet weather.
The rainy saint had charge Of the
education of King Alfred, and in S52
was consecrated bishop of Winchester.
Swithen died July 2, S62. and was bur
led according To his own desire in the
churchyard of Winchester. When a
century later he was canonized, the
monks, not cnsidering this fitting
place of rest for the saint. exhumed
his body for the purpose Of depositlng
1t in Winchester cathedral. The re-
moval was to have taken place on July
10, but was delayed by violent rains,
which continued without intermission
for forty days. Out of this circum-
stance arose the still current belief that
If rain falls on July Is, it will continue
to rain for forty days.

MAY DE DISCONTINUED.
New Train ON the Naugatuck Division
Not Well PatrOnized.

Railroad officials here say that 1t is
probable that the new early morning
train which was put on the Neugatuck
division q short time ago will be dis
continued within q month. The num-
Der Of passengers carried has been so
small that the railrad has lost heavily
on the train, and 1t is not thought that
there is any great demand for the SER
vice along the route.
The chief advantage to- the towns
along the route as result of the new
train has been the earlier arrival Of the
New York malls, This reason will pro-
badly not weigh very heavily with the,
railway officials unless the patronage
increases sufficiently to make the train
a paying proposition.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. GROWTH.

The pioneers and optim;sts of the
east end of Umatilla county who have
waited and hoped for tie coming of
the deserved business enterprises to
that favored district are now about to
realize their dreams to the fullest ex-
tent.
The electric line is about completed
into Milton and Freewater and today
the East Oregonian announces in its
Freewater correspondence that over
100 acres of tomatoes have been con-
tracted for the new cannery now being
built there.
"All things come to him who waits, u
(if he waits in the right kind of coun-
:rv). Soon the RECONSIDERATION dis
trict will be huinning with industrial
enterprises and the ricn agricultural
land of that locality will be yielding
fabulous returns.
This is but the beginning. The elec.
trio road will not stop at Freewatel
and the Freewater cannery will not bt
the only one built in Umatilla count!

ROOSEVELT, REvoLUTIoNIsT.

The announcement made from the
White House yesterday, concerning the
notification of state legislation on the
railroad question by the national gov
ernment, and on the dismantiIng of
gilt-edged railroad bonds by the
treasury department, was positively
alarming, revolutionary, from the con-
servative standpoint.
President Roosevelt does not believe
in holding watered railroad bonds as
security for public deposits evidently,
and intends to squeeze the water out
o. the inflated values and place them
on their proper level.
He is absolutely right in this posi-
ton. There is no more reason for
accepting railroad bonds as security
for government funds than there is in
accepting the bonds of any small con-
Germ in Pendleton as security. The
principle involved is the same and II
the government shows discrimination
the people lose faith in 1t.
The tendency has been to place the
influence and assets Of the govern
rnent behind private corporations, Il
the corporations were big, and in this
way many Of the rich concerns Of
the country have specuIated ant
