superintendent Report. /.

/ have the following matters for
your consideration at this meeting:
My observations thus far lead me
to believe that the instruction in
music and drawing as carried on In
the schools this year is of high or
der.
/ believe that the Salem schools
should prepare an exhibit TO be sent
to the Alaska-Yukon exposition, and
that the board should authorize the
superintendent to do so.
Mr.. Joel Hewitt has been employed
by the superintendent to do certain
carpenter work amthorized to be done
by the board.
The increase of high school at
tendance in February will necessitate
a re-arrangement of the seating in the
assembly, and the purchase OF 81 ad-
ditional desks, and two backs.
The increased attendance mention
ed will add five or more additional
class periods. These can not be
handled by the present teaching force
even thought the principal teach all
of his time, which is impossible. /
am therefore asking that the board
authoize the employment of an addl-
tional instructor for the high school,
to begin on February ~.

intendent for the month OF October

IN DEFENSE OF REFUGEE
Mass Meeting Is Held in Chicago in
Behalf of Alleged Russian
Murderer.

Chicago, Dec. William Calhoun
who some years ago acted as special in
Vestigator for President Roosevelt in Pan
anna and VenezueIa, was the chief speak
ct at mass meeting held here today in
the interest of Christian Rudowitz, the
Russian refugee. who. in response to the
demand Of the Russian government charg-
ing him with arson. robbery and murder,
has been recommended by United States
Commissioner FoOte for extraction.
The defense of Rudowitz that he is
political refugee is to be presented TO the
state department BY Mr.. Calhoun in AN
effort 20 have the recommendation of Mr..
FOOte reversed.
Rudowitz is charged with participating
in the murder Of three persons in tbs,
province of Courlaad, Russia, IN January
of 1895.
Mr. Calhoun declared that the evidence
upon which the refugee has been recon-
monded for extradition is flimsy, and that
sending him back to Russia at this .ime
erty. The hearing of the case has Dorne
sity of hearing extradition cases before A
regular federal tribunal and not merely
before United States commissioner, who
is not necessarily a member of the bar
The injustice of existing laws may be
illustrated by a single example, said Mr.
Calhoun. An ambassador, or even any
of his attaches, cannot be sued or at
tackled in any way, even for so little as "A
laundry bill, except before the Tinted
States supreme .ou-s. But an indiVid-
ual accused Of murder can perhaps lie
sent to death on the hearing of a man
who is not even lawyer.
