Well he proceeded, "to go to a
different restaurant for New Years
dinner would be discretion"

PALATKA'S CRYING NEED.

Surely Palatka's most CRYING neeC
is new school house. One can but
wonder how the old one has beer
made to serve so long, dilapidated
unsightly, inadequate and fire-trap
This year the eighth grade was put
in a little cottage adjoining the
school and another room was rented
in a residence near by, for part of
the first grade. Otherwise it would
have been impossible to accommodate
all of the children, and as it is, the
entire school is uncomfortable
crowded. When one remembers the
influence Of environments and then
looks at the unlovely grounds and
barn-like old structure, in which near
ly four hundred young minds are
daily being developed, one cannot
doubt the necessity of better facili-
ties.
In the last few years Palatka has
grown wonderfully, and we have all
taken great pride in it. First a city
nall was built, then the streets were
paved, then a handsome new court
aouse and the bridge were built, the
city purchased an expensive chemical
fire engine, and still the old school
has looked patiently on.
Outside of the actual need of new
building, one might consider the
commercial influence on the town.
Would it not increase the value of
A home seeker usually considers
the school in town before settling
there, and so it would be to Palat-
ka's advantage to have a large up-to-
date school house. Certainly new
corners would not be favorably i'm
pressed with the present building,
nor the educational advantages of
Palatka. They do not realize that
we have good school in a very poor
building. | venture to say our teach
ers are equal to the best anywhere,
and how faithfully they have labored
against discouraging conditions.
They have simply made us learn any
way. And do they not deserve some
But now we are hopeful, lot has

PIERCE HONORED.
Statue at Last for Former President
of United States.

Franklin Pierce, the only president
from New Hampshire, seems assured,
at last, of a statue by his native state.
The senate has passed house bill
providing for $4,000 appropria-
ton. Governor Felker is expected to
sign the measure.
The fact that Pierce was Dem
ocrat and pro-slavery man has hith-
erto aroused strong opposition to
statue. The legislature is Dem
ocratic for the first time in forty
years.

St. Johns review. (Saint Johns, Or.) 1904-current, 1913-03-07

The Evening News has at last
been caught in the tolls. II has
been treading on very thin ice"
ever since this what is general
ly supposed TO be olIshoot of the
greatest newspaper trust ever
formed was placed before the
public. The grand jury upon its
own volition il seems has found
an indictment against il in "A case
of criminal libel perpetuated up
on County Commissioner Light
ner ct. al. The News has been
growing more bold in It's perse-
cution of public men, and at last
seems TO have Slipped n cog. "
Owing TO the lax libel laws in
Oregon a newspaper can make
any charge against a public man
so long as il is prefaced by 1--WE
believe" "it is said" or "in
our opinion. This has afforded
the News a field of unbounded
persecution with little fear of
reprisal. But IL seems i'm one of
its TRADES against Mr.. Lightner
il neglected TO preface the charge
properly behind the subterfuge
I'VE believe" and thereby
"hangs the tale" II may posi-.
bly, squeeze through and secure
immunity in some manner, but
il will be a close shave.
St. Johns review. (Saint Johns, Or.) 1904-current, 1913-03-07

That st. Johns will celebrate
the glorious Fourth of July in a
manner beftting that great day
is practically assured. The Fire
Department has taken the mat
ter in charge and is seeking both
moral and financial help for cele-
brating among the business
men and citizens. And they
are securing it. All are practi-
cally unanimous in agreeing that
st. Johns should make the eagle
scream this year since il has
passed up a couple of years with
out indulging in a celebration.
IL is to be hoped that the project
will meet with the approval and
hearty accord of every citizen.
IL will bring visitors to st. Johns
who little realize what a mag
nfcent little municipality we
really possess. All boost for a
grand celebration on the Nations
birthday. and the Firemen will
do the rest.
St. Johns review. (Saint Johns, Or.) 1904-current, 1913-03-07

A bill has passed the Legisla,
ture whereby il will be possible
TO have a measure providing for
consolidation of cities and towns
in Oregon placed upon the bal
lot at the next general election
or possibly at a special election,
without the necessity of secur-
ing petitions therefor. This
measure was before the people
for decision at the last Novem-
ber election, and, apparently, TO
give il added prestige and
strength, a county division meas
ure was tackled 10, but il failed
10 carry. John ii. Nolta, who
pushed the bin through the Leg
islature, is quoted in a Sunday
paper as stating that St. Johns
could now become a part of Port
land as soon as its citizens desir-
ed. This is manifestly am error.
IL is not within the power of the
Legislature 10 override the will
of the people. st. Johns can
only become a part of Portland
after the people of the state, and
not the Legislative body, by a
majority vote declare i'm favor of
a constitutional amendment pro-
yiding for consolidation of cities,
and after the people of st.
Johns, by virtue of such amend
ment again by majority vote de
eide in favor of consolidation. !
1t is hard TO conceive why a fair
minded citizen should object TO !
such constitutional amendment, !
but il is something that will |
have TO be done in the proper
manner and cannot be made a
law by Legislature alone.
