TEACHERS wAGEs-CoNTINUED,

On last Saturday evening the East
Qregonian printed an editorial adyo-
eating an increase in the wages of
school teachers.
But there is something more to be
said upon the subject.
UNLESS TEACHERS EARN
THEIR SALARIES, DO THEIR
WORK CONSCIENTIOUSLY, GIVE
PUPILS THEIR BEST EFFORTS,
GIVE INSTRUCTION WHEREVER
THEY CAN TO ADVANCE PUPILS
INSTEAD OF SENDING THEM
HOME To LEARN WHAT THE
TEACHER Is PAID TO TEACH
THEM. PUBLIC SCHOOL BOARDS
ARE NOT JUSTIFIED IN RAISING
SALARIES.
Where a teacher simply teaches for
the salary and does not give his or
her oest thought to the work, there
should be no advancement, no in
crease in salary for that teacher.
Spending the public money for the
education of the young is a gigantic
and serious problem, and those hiring
teachers should know just exactly
wha. kind of work every teacher is
doing Too many teachers hold their
jobs through some pull, private influ-
ence. personal advantage. Their
methods would not keep them in a
school room week without this out
side influence.
Too many pupils in the public
schools, not alone in Pendleton, but
everywhere, are sent home with the
command to learn certain things, on
nenalty of severe punishment on their
return to school.
Too many teachers expect young
children to learn without assistance
what the teacher knows after years
of experience. There is not enough
genuine instruction, too much driv'
ing. There Is not enough persona
contact, too much mechanical pro
gram, in teaching methods.
The East Oregonian believes il
high salaries for teachers. But
also believes in high personal meri
in teachers. The janitor who consci
enticusly earns his salary is just a
much entitled to an advance as tn
teacher whose increasing officienc'
brings better rewards.
And the slovenly teacher is wors
than the slovenly janitor. becaus
more is expected from the teache
than from the ianitor.

THE COSTLY COMMISSION.

The democratic governor and the
republican legislature of oregon were
elected by practically the same peo-
pie and have the same interests to
protect and serve.
In the consideration of the railroad
commission question both the COVER
nor and the legislature should re-
mcmher that Oregon has but about
1900 miles of railroad and that a
$50, O,OOO-pcr-year commission is a big
burden for a sparsely settled state.
The railroads should be regulated,
bur 4 strong rate law. state tax COM
mission ana then fearless and un-
failing enforcement Of the laws, re-
gardlnss of annual passes, would fur
rish sufficient regulation, it seems
for the present population and rail
road mileage Of the state.

jamestown Wants $4,000
From Oregon

An appropriation approximating
$4,000 for an oregon building at the
jamestown tercentenary exposition
was recommended to the Multnomah
| legislative delegation at n meeting at
the court house last night by Jeffer-
son Myers, a member of the provision
al commission appointed by the gov
ernor 10 report on the ACCESSIBILITY of
an Oregon exhibit, says the Oregon
/ Daily Journal.
| Mr.. Myers said to the delegation
/ that to send an exhibit would be
waste of money unless it We're con-
centrated in state building. An OPP
| tion on one of the most desirable sites
/ on the grounds was secured for the
| Oregon building. The option expires
! February s. Mr.. Myers mentioned this
fact in urging upon the delegation
! that whatever action is taken should
be taken promptly.
The proposed site of the Oregon
building is 15Ox3OO feet. Commissions
er Myers believed that the Oregon
| building should be about 60x12O feet,
two stories and basement in Colo
/
tion was secured is in the heart of the
grounds, and just across the avenue
from the steamboat landing.
People know where our state is
located" said Mr.. Myers. but they do
not know what it contains. We must
advertise it. II is much harder for
those people in the east to accumulate
$1,000 than it Is for Us, and conse-
quently 1t is difficult to get them to
make experimental tours of our state.
We must show them what they will
find when they get here.
with 21,OOO,O0O people within 10
hours ride of the jamestown eXposi-
ton site, firmly believe this exposi-
ton will be one of the best for adver-
tising and immigration ever held.
Freight rates for our exhibits will
be one-half of the regular rates. The
exposition people guarantee that our
fruit and other exhibits will be un-
loaded within "a hours after their ar
rival. BY a special resolution passed
by the exposition officials. manufac-
turers and producers of the three Pa
cific coast states may have their ex-
hibits in their respective state build
ings and compete for prizes, while
those from all other states must go
into the machinery, agricultural, arts
and other special buildings and buy
exhibit space before they will be elgi.
bic 10 compete"
Special Importance was attached tC
stereoptiCOu views and lectures and tC
county exhibits as advertising medi
ums by Mr.. Myers. He pointed to tho
fact that Harney county has traced
over 100 immigrants to their $1,000
exhibit at the Lewis and Clark expo
: sitlon as an illustration of the valu,
of county exhibits. That the Oregon
building be constructed from Oregon
I material by oregon workmen is be
, lieved by Mr.. Myers to be necessary t,
, accomplish the best results. Consid
erable interest in the exposition wa
manifested by the Multnomah delega
ton.
Drafts of four bills recommends
by the republican club were presente,
to the delegation by Attorney c. E
Lockwood. The bills related to votinj

In raising the sustentation fund for

HISTORY MAKING FACTS

The News-Scimitar has more than
once stated the belief that IN 1908 or
1912 Bryan, Roosevelt and Hearst will
be supporting the same presidential
candidate.
Roosevelt in this may or may not
have behind him the dominant por-
ton of the republican masses.
News comes from Washington that
financial influences in both the par
ties will begin a fight on Roosevelt
through an attack on COrrelyou; un-
less the negro regiment incident be
the beginning OF this movement
against the president. particularly
from republican class interests. The
dead or dying conservatives in the
democratic party, or those who believe
in any means to accomplish party
ends. it is said. will join force with
any influences in the republican party
in beginning the warfare on the pres

g CAUSES OF WRECKS.

DR.. Charles II. Hughes, o noted st.
Louis neurologist, is the author of a
monograph in which
he states that the recent appalling
accident records Of the railroads are
to be attributed almost entirely TO
mistakes resulting from the brain
strain Of overworked employees. The
hours of those employed in the train
dispatching, engineering and switch
service are entirely too long, the ply
sician declares.

Henry Austin, son of Mr. and Mrs.
f. A. Austin Of Sellwood. has ahead
of him a series of experiences that
probably will be very different from
those Of any other boy who will grow
to manhood in Portland, says a Port
land paper. In the next IS or 20
years this boy will have from 10 to
10 eyes, according to how rapidly he
grows. Every year or 50 doctors will
remove an eye and substitute an
other, and about the time the boy
gets used to this one, another will be
inserted, aud so on until he reaches
his growth, when he can have an eye
of his own that he can keep, The
eyes will cost about $50 each, or a
total Of $3.50 for Is years.

PARTY THIS AFTERNOON

Mrs. Truman Stockton was hostess
at a charming roof garden party at
"Millers" from 2:30 to 5 on Tuesday
afternoon in honor of her guest, Miss
Kenney, of Denver.
The decorations were of a special
character and were unusually attrac-
tive, pink predominating in the color
scheme. Cards furnished the diver
sion, 500 being the game played.
The tally cards We're very pretty and
in color harmonized with the sur
roundings. The prize was a beautiful
hand painted cup and saucer done in
pink roses. The refreshments were
very dainty and the ice cream was
served in pink individuals. 1t was
one OF the most delightful social gath
erings held here for some time, and
Mrs. Stockton may well felicitate her
self upon its success.

BEING MACADAMIZED

Fe railroad tracks to the crest of the
hill at "Elmhurst" ranch, is being
macadamized at the instance of the
county commissioners. The Stag from
the plant of the United States Smelt-
ing and Refining company will be
used in lieu of broken rock for the
foundation, and no doubt will be equ-
ally good for that purpose. The crush
er has been moved to the dump at the
smelter and work begun preparing the
Stag for use on the street. There Is a
heavy travel along South Ninth street
and the proposed improvement will
be hailed with delight by the people
of Lincoln Park, who haveoccasion to

the foot of the skyline drive, the
heads of the horses were directed to-
ward that road and Canon City looked
it's best, in the soft twilight hours.
Nearer and nearer to home drew the
tally-ho, when Home, Sweet Home
was sung SO sweetly, and as charm
lends enchantment, the charms Of the
beautiful song enchanted the world
for the time.
Those of the alumnae partaking OF
the outing were Mesdames Leo Mer-

about the value of The Daily Record
Want Ads and he straightway came
around and put in a Want Ad, des-
cribing the denominations of the bills

say about them.
Herman Graves found the bills out
in front of his fathers hospital. He
is an honest boy, and smart too, and
he knew that if the owner wanted
his money back he would surely ad-
vertise his loss in The Daily Record

The Daily Record came out, sure
enough there was the ad for the lost
bills and Herman knew that the bills
he had found were surely those ad-
vertised for.
Mr.. Callen soon got his bills back
at The Record office. He gladly sent
one of the bills to Herman as a re-
ward, SO both loser and finder con-
slider themselves mighty lucky, and it

MOUNT ST. SCHOLASTICA'S
PICNIC AT ROYAL GORGE

A perfect day! A crowd of merry
fun loving people, and an abundance
of good things to eat! Such were
the circumstances the alumnae of
Mount ST. Scholastica's Academy with
their guests, undertook a trip to the
top of the Royal Gorge, Saturday.
June 22nd.
About 9 o'clock the tally-ho, drawn
by four fresh horses, drove away from
the convent gates and the gay voices
of the picnickers drowned the cares
of life for that day. Recollections Of
the dear absent schoolmates cheered
those present for an hour or more.
By now the distance was sufficiently
great for voices to cause no disturb
ance to the business world and the
echo of song after song fioated over
the beautiful country of mountains.
1t is needless to praise the sweetness
of the music, II it be remembered that
Mrs. Bernadette Shellen is one OF the
alumnae, and those who have ever
been so fortunate as to hear her beau
tiful voice will never forget its power
and richness.
Just at noon the party alighted from
| the tally-ho and there was a race to
scan the wonderful Royal Gorge from
its very base to its dizzying height.
Each and all welcomed the sugges-
ton OF spreading the lunch immedi-
ately, SO while some were arranging
the lunch on Natures table, others
were heating coffee over the camp
| fire" In a very short time all were
called to enjoy the delicious repast
! which had been SO invitingly prepared
by Nelson Bros, and which consisted
OF chicken and beef sandwiches, devil
ed eggs, cheese straws, pickles and
olives, saratoga chips. fruit salad and
cake, fruit and waters and coffee.
Justice was displayed to everything
in the strictest sense of the word.
During the dinner a photograph of
the satisfied group was taken by Mrs.
Myrtle Merritt.
When luncheon was over groups OF
twos, threes and fours strolled of to
favorite rocks and ravines, meeting
again at 4 O'Clock, expressing their
appreciation OF the exquisite work OF
the Creator, according to their differ
ent temperaments-som with exclam-
ations of pleasure. others In silent
admiration.
A great honor was bestowed on the
alumnae by the acceptance of an in
vitation to accompany them, rendered
to the dearly loved Rev. Mother Schui.

emy, and had attended the exercises
on commencement day. 1t was Moth.
