Siletz Homesteader Replies.

Editor LEADER:--I notice an
article in the last issue of the New
port News Reporter asking Mr..
Siletz Homesteader" where we may
be found. Some 0 us in the eastern
part of township 10 south, range II
west can be found on our claims
any time and any day, and such has
been the case for the past three
years. We can be found in Toledo
frequently, where we trade, where
our roads lead to, and where we can
and do earn Fart OF our living
without having to pay a license to Sc
cure and hold job. Even if most of
the Siletz homesteaders did skidoo
out of the timber as soon they could
that is not any reason why we should
be unjustly taxed and country
school districts deprived of their
just share of taxable property.
In reply to Mr.. Minthon will
say that it is unfair and unjust for
the Newport school districr to hold
the Siletz territory annexed to it on
account of its geographical situation
and the needs of the Newport
school district or the number of
pupils in the district has nothing
to do with it. When | attended
school was taught that narrow
channel of water connecting two
larger bodies of water was called
a straight, but it is beyond my COM
prehension how a long, narrow
strip of land connecting two larger
bodies Of land, and then only by an
error in surveys, can be u straight
proposition in the division of terri
tory between different school dis
tricts.
AS to the legality of the annex
alton of this territory to the New
port school district that can best be
decided by the Courts, if such proves
necessary. The people in the ad-
joining district should arouse them
selves and each district petition for
its fair share of this territory, which
they can certainly secure by united
action. Let those interested go to
the County School Superintendent's
office and examine q map of the
Newport and adjoining school dis
trict and investigate for themselves
the truthfulness of my statements.
In conclusion | would ask Mr..
Minthorn to have map OF the
Newport and adjoining school dis
tricts printed in the News-Reporter
to prove that this territory justly
Lincoln County leader. [volume] (Toledo, Lincoln County, Or.) 1893-1987, 1910-03-18

elongs to the Newport school dis
trict. He or any other Newporter
does not dare to have such map
printed in either of the Newport
papers as it is a matter that won't
stand publicity. Come, Doc, print
map OF your school district, before
someone else does it for you, and
show your distric : fairness to other
school districts and the iustness in
it to us people to be attached to
youl district and to be taxed to
support your city schools. Also ex-
plain how it is that the Otter Rock
Resort is in the Newport school dis
trict, but the people there have to
cross another school district to reach
Newport. Yours uly,
STLETz HoMEsTEADER,
In the Newport school district.

Vacancy on School Board.

Lincoln County LEADER: There
Is at present a vacancy in the Office
OF School director in the Waldport
District and | am informed by one
OF the remaining directors that the
County School Superintendent has
decided that it is not necessary to,
call special meeting to fill this
vacancy, and there IRE about twelve
districts in the County which have
only two directors. Inasmuch as
Section 104 of the school laws of
Oregon provides that "A special
school meeting to fill said vacancy
shall be called in accordance with
section 1870" | am at loss az to
why such advice should be given by
the superintendent. The law sure
ly contemplates that there shall be
three directors in each district, not
part Of the Time, but all the time.
| am told that the Toledo district is
one in which there is vacancy.
Section 81 of the school laws pro-
vides that the directors shall visit
and inspect the schools from time to
time. The monthly reports in the
LEADER nearly always show no
visits by the school board. Since
school opened at Wa'dport last Fall
we have had one visit by director
OF our district. Very truly,
VIM. +. Ready.

In most schools 1t IL considered a
mistake for any girl to appear more
deliberately dressed than the others.
And In certain private schools OF the
kind termed exclusive" there prevails
the democratic custom Of wearing a

But even when perfect uniformity Is

Of the procession II the girls OF the
class agree upon harmony In small do
