TEACHERS MAY OBTAIN
POSITIONS ON COAST
Many Needed in Northwestern State. to
Fill Depleted Forces High
Salaries.

Spokane, Wash Aug. 6-Posit.
ions await several thousand teach
ers in the public schools in Wash
ington, Oregon, idaho and Mon.
tana, according to Bruce Nj. Wat
son, superintendent of schools in
Spokane, who said that fully 500
will be required in this city next
fall. There were 448 teachers on
the city's payrolls last season, at
salaries ranging from SIS to 500 a
month. =. =. =.
One explanation offered for this
unusual demand is that hundreds
of teachers have left the profession
the last few years to marry, while
others entered other lines of work in
the northwest.
Hundreds of teachers from east
ern states come to Washington every
year who are qualified to teach when
they arrive. having taught in other
Schools" said DR.. H. w. Allen,
chairman of the board of education
of Spokane, and this is true of Ore
gon, Idaho, Montana and other
states in the West. No statistics
are available as to the exact number
of teachers who obtain positions here
each year, but it is probably safe to
say that 33 per cent of next years
force in this state will consist of
teachers who are from eastern and
central states, or Of those who have
had no previous experience.
Statistics compiled in Iowa show
that the teaching force of that state
changes every three years, while of
the 1858 teachers receiving certifi-
cafes IN Kansas last year $500 had
no previous experience. The many
schools opened in Washington and
other northwestern states each year,
and the added number of teachers
needed each succeeding year in all
of our rapidly growing cities and
towns, causes an unusual demand
for recruits to the teaching staffs.
Because of the many opportunities
in other lines of work a larger per-
centage of teachers leave the pro-
fession in this and other states in
the northwest each year than in
eastern states" @g-s...s -

McMurray's agents, it is charged,

Gore measure" According to Gore
the bribe was offered to him in an
effort to induce him to withdraw it.
Bill Narrowly Escaped Death.
/ The Gore measure was favorably
reported and seemed to be we'll on it's
way toward passing. During the alb
sence of Gore on June "a, however, it
came up in the course of routine busi-
ness and it's enemies had practically
killed it when Gore rushed into the
chamber. '- '..
Realizing that only the most ex-
|streme measure could save the bill at
that stage of the session Gore made
his sensational speech in which he
|: charged attempted bribery and that
| various members of congress were in.
terested in the deal. But at that time
he mentioned no names.
On the last night of the session,
just before final adjournment, special
committees were appointed by both
the house and the senate to investi-
gate the matter.
Gore had succeeded in having his
bill reamended and adODted in such
shape as to be satisfactory to him.
Under the previous law it was pro-
vided that all blanket contracts with
Indian tribes required the approval of
the president and President Roosevelt
in 1908 refused to 90. K" tribal con-
tracts made by McMurray., The Nc
Alester attorney then proceeded to OBJ
tain individual contracts, which led
Gore to introduce his bill.
