WHERE ARE the 17s?
in Schools Show That
There Are a Large Number Of
Children Not Attending.

At the end Of the first week Of
school the teachers turned in the
enrolment of their various depart
ments, which are consolidated into
the number in each building. This
is as follows: High school, 1893:
grades in high school building, 113;
Whittier schools. 1863; Eugene Field
schools, 107; Lincoln schools, 145;
Longfellow schools, 176. making a
total Of 903.
The enrolment of last year
amounted to 1882. and there is q
discrepancy between last year and
this Of 179. The question that pre-
sents itself to Superintendent Hon
is, where are these absent pupils.
The present school census shows
there r 1868 school children In the
city and 1t is evident that a couple
of hundred are not attending school
at the present.
The superintendent will take the
names from the census roll Of those
children who are not In school and
turn the list over to the board Of
education with the idea of ascertain
ing why the children are remaining
away. The absence is particularly
noticeable in the grades. The state
law requires the children to go to
school, and the law further provides
against the hiring of children under
school age to work during the school
year.
The work in the various depart
ments is progressing nicely, and al
though one or two are over crowded
the condition will be overcome short
ly.
The work in the high school is
particularly satisfying, the young
men and women settling down to
work to the entire satisfaction
OF the teachers and they give
splendid evidence of getting into
close touch and harmony with the
faculty for the best good of trem-
selves and the schools.

\ QUESTION OF HONOR.

In its usual quibbling manner the
morning paper talks for an hour upon
the subject Of the senatorship and
winds up by saying nothing upon the
one and only vital question involved.
Why doesn't the Tribune come out
with it? Manifestly it would like to
see Governor Chamberlain turned
down By the legislature. Indirectly it
is working TO that end. Why does it
bubble. stammer and stutter about it'
Why doesn't it come out openly and
tell legislators to violate their pledges?
Only by doing 50 can they elect any
one but Governor Chamberlain as
senator.
In q column editorial this morning
the local morning paper contends
there is no law requiring legislators
TO vote for the peoples choice for
senator But there IS such law.
Last June the people Of Oregon, by
practically a unanimous vote, enacted
law which requires that legislators
shall vote for the peoples choice for
senator

THE REGENERATION.

With a whirl that is characteristic
Of Pendleton the regeneration of the
Commercial club was started last
night. The movement is now under
such good headway that it cannot
fail.
Within a few minutes time $4O0
was subscribed towards the remodel
ing fund. A soliciting committee will
now go forth to secure the remainder
os the money needed. They will get
Il and should get it with ease.
Every business man, every profess
sional man and every property owner
OF this city should aid in the matter.
Every prominent stockman, farmer
and irrigatipnist of the county should
become a member, either active or
nonresident. of the association. It's
work is for all of Umatills county.
Then when the money has been Sc
cured the rooms will be fitted up in a
manner that will be a credit to the
city of Pendleton. The office will be
equipped for work and in a general
way the association placed in condi-
ton to do what it should do.
In no sense of the word was the
rejuvenation movement a reflection
upon the present officers of the as
sociation. As president, Mr.. Alexan-
der has done everything in his pow
er TO make the association helpful to
the town. SO has Secretary Marsh;
So mas Mr.. Nye. the librarian.
The principal trouble with the as
sociation has been in the system un-
der which it worked and in the fact
that its quarters had become anti
quated and filthy.
But the rejuvenatlon will cure all
Of this. Inside of a few months Pen
dleton will have one of the best little
commercial clubs in the west The

TANNING THE PAWPAW.

Within the past few days stirring
question has arisen in the middle
states and the discussion Of the same
has reached as far as Puget sound.
The issue is whether or not the paw
paw may be domesticated
Discussing this important subject
the Seattle Post-Intelligencer says;
Some of the newspapers are inclin-
et to pounce upon the domesticated
paw-paw; they are right; the attempt
20 tame the pawpaw is utterly foolish.
The Kansas CRY star says, the Lord
knew what he was about when He
made pawpaws to grow on bushes in
the woods" and It is 'superfluous and
Irrelevant to try to cultivate them
OF course, there are people who do
not care a great deal for pawpaws
people, for instance, who know some
thing of the fine flavor of Cuba's red
bananas. Or take mangoes; some of
them have the tang of quinine, but
others. in a dim sort of way, suggest
the ecstasies of the gin rickey or the
flzz. or the alligator pear, which is
too delicate to get beyond the cities
grouped on the littoral of the Gulf of
Mexico; properly sauced. the same
has flavor not surpassed though 1t
requires some time to get to it.
Pawpaws are rather too sweet for
most men; they are flavorless, in
way though there is a belief in Ken
tucky that possum meat is seasoned
somewhat by the possum's habit of
feeding on pawpaws. All of which is
aside from the main question, how
ever, which has to do with the domes-
t.cation of the pawpaw. The pawpaw
cannot be tanned; any attempt to do
so is not only "superfluous and irrel-
evant," but 1t is also unconstitutional.

The federal court of appeals has
again ruled against the government in
the Standard Oil case. Law is a pecu-
lar proposition. 1t is all in how you
look at it, So long as federal judge
ships and supreme court positions are
occupied by men who have been train
ed in the employ of corporations the
law will be construed for their bene-
fit. The courts need liberalizing. They
need men who will rule broadly and
for the general good. During the re-
cent campaign the cry was raised that
Bryan's election would jeopardize the
integrity of the courts. But the
courts need little "jeopardizing.

And then he won't talk when he

real mad he shouts at mama: "They

there-way back there, of course, and
it's the best story in the paper!"
Then mama says, quiet. like a calm

But he's more like a bear than a
dear, and he doesn't come. but he
keeps on growing at the old paper
guess he finally gets tired of HIM
self, too, and then he jumps up,
throws the paper on the chair, and
tries to dodge mama's funny smile.
Mama's awfully patient, l think,
and she never gets mad, but just
smiles at daddy when he gets cross
at things. Sometimes she asks him
why he wants to keep on being a
newspaper man II it's so awful. One
time he answered ana said it was be-

a day maybe the office would some
time give him as much as the stere-

But newspaper daddies aren't al

downstairs a whole lot earlier, and
then when he grabs the paper he
smiles ali over and shouts at mama:
