NEW BRIDGE COMPLETED
AND FARMERS REJOICE

Ault. sept. 1l.-People in the
Olive Branch peighborhood are re-
ioicing over the fact that a bridge
has at last been constructed across
Owl creek at the point two miles east
of the Olive Branch school house,
where the crossing was particularly
bad. During many months OF the
year the creek is dry but at certain
seasons big floods come down. and
it has happened more than once that
n farmer has crossed over dryshod
on his way to Pierce and few hours
later would be unable to return be-
cause of the high water. The Tor
nation of the banks made it hazard
Gus to attempt to ford when there
was much water in the creek.
Commissioner Baldridge has had
his men at work there for some time
and the bridge is now finished. There
is also considerable grading beihs
done in that vicinity.

MORALITY IN OUR school
Local Minister Takes Issue with Magazine Writer on sh
of Higher Education 00'''''

Moral conditions in the schools
OF Greeley are improving and taken
generally, the conditions among the
pupils of the schools are better than
those existing among the youth out
side.
This was the position taken Sun
day morning by the Rev. John Doane
in his sermon at the First Congrega-
tional church, in which sermon he
answered the article of a writer in
the Cosmopolitan magazine in which
the latter attacks the morality of the
schools and colleges of the country.
The Rev. Mr.. Doane cited as his
authorities some of the leading edu-
Gators of the country and said that
while the Gospel was not being
taught perhaps as it should be, at
the present time there was tend
ency towards better moral con-
science through the schools and that
the work of education was advancing
to higher plane of effort. The
magazine writer declared he had
made careful investigation among
the high schools and had secured his

the schools. '''ie p"piis OF
The Rev Mr., Doane said that ,ho
high school boys probably knew
more OF the moral atmospbera !"
which they We're working than the
teachers themselves, but thought
that the writer had been little
biased In his Judgment. He con-
tinued TO speak of the great moral
responsibility resting with the teach. @
ers In the schools and the uplifting
innuence 1t was possible for them to
employ IN their Instructions
There are probably no schools of
the country where a better inf,u-
ence Is eXerted than in the schools
Of Greeley, Every tendency has mt
the educatiye work on a more refin-
Ing basis and while religion as a
religion is not taught perhaps, there
Is that recognition of greater and
better things which trends towards
the more perfect character building
of the pupils. The preacher took his
lesson from the school boy DAYS of

1T seems to me like bad judg-
ment said grain dealer of Gree
ley today, pointing to car of Kan
sas hay in the railway yards. Ito

agricultural possibilities as this.
That hay sells here for s12 ton and
the railroad gets most of that profit.
This community should be self-sus-
tanning and the farmer who is first
in position to supply the market
should pull down nice bunch of
money. That is good hay all right,
but ii should be raised here. and |

TO

SESSION

Denver, Sept. Ex-Governor Shat

special session of the legislature
early in April to redeem the pledges
made by the Democratic party in its
platform. The governor will insist
upon the enactment of the direct pri-
mary law, initiative and referendum.

viding for the choice of United States
senator's by direct vote of the peo-

When asked yesterday when he

ril is the proper time because the

tive until ninety days after their

at the special session. The message
may contain reference to other meas
ures n the legislature fails to do
it's duty within satisfactory time
shall prorogue it and leave the
question with the people, In addi-
tion to the primary law, which will
contain the features of the Oregon
primary law, I want law which
will require that each candidate for
the state senate or house of repre-
scntatives place himself on record be-
fore the people as to whether he
will vote for the peoples choice for
United States senator or use his own
Judgment. The people can then
Judge him according to his answer
and the law will compel him to
stand by his promise. This is the
nearest we can come to direct
election of United States senators
without submitting a constitutional
amendment for ratification by the
other states.
IL do not expect the sDecial ses-
sion to last long. and I will not toll
crate any dilatory tactics. They
must get down to business from the
beginning and let the people know
whether they are in earnest
