To the Board of school Directors
Pendleton District. Umatilla Coun.
ty. Oregon
Gentlemen The signers hereto
representing the Citizens Committee
having in charge the petitions pre-
sented to you on the evening Of June
Sth, 1915, asking the reelection of j,
S. Ianders as superintendent of
schools, and in answer to your sug-
gestion then made that we designate
a subcommittee of five to discuss
with you at future meeting the sub
iects involved respectfully decline for
the following reasons;
First We have no authority to act
in the premises, the powers delegated
to us having been the circulation and
presentation of the petitions, which
speak for themselves.
Second We regard the school board
of this. and every other district, as
the servants of the people, not their
masters. and the manifest sentiment
of the people of Pendleton, as ex-
pressed by the petitions now before
you, would not be changed by any
discussion in which we might engage
Third There are about 100 names
upon the petitions filed with your
clerk, and many more could have
been secured had time for further
circulation permitted. We believe the
petitions reflect the sentiment o.
fully three-fourths of the people ot
the school district probably more
than that.
Fourth. The right of petition is a!
old as the republic itself. and it is tht
only method by which any consider
able body of the people can max
their desires known to public officers
AS we view it, you should welcom'
such manifestation Of public senti
ment, and respect it without contro
versy by obedience to the public will
Fifth The experience we had be
fore your body when We presente'
the petitions was not of such char
acter as would make further confer
ence inviting, either to us or to an
other citizen whom we might desig
nate Respectfully.

RAILROAD COMMISSION
 IS OUT 0F FUNDS

The last contracts for the work of construction of the government rail road have been let for the present year according to the opinion of the men working on those contracts now and the opinion of the men working for wages, according to some people who have recently arrived from that quarter. Of course, this need not necessarily mean that the work will be suspended as there will be un- doubtedly quite lot of work to be done during most of the winter months, but the appropriation was so small and the amount of equipment purchased so large that two million dollars cannot be expected to last very long, Congress meets about three months from now and it is pos sible that another appropriation may be secured at the beginning of the session.-Seward Gateway.

LAKE OF O|L |S l. DISCO WIRED
 NEAR NOME

That a whole lake of oil, great flow ing natural wells and imense streams of the fluid have been discovered to the northward of Seward peninsula is the amazing statement brought to Nome by the Revenue cutter Bear, and a statement proven by photo graphs taken and brought here by the discoverer of what apparently means nothing less than a vastly greater find than any gold fields within the limits of the territory.
 Vanvalin is the name of the dis coverer. He was picked up by the Bear at Wainright just south of the place of discovery of the extraordin- nary oil lake. The lake is situated be. tween Wainright and Point Barrow in the extreme north of Alaska The photographs taken by Vanvalin show clearly that the lake of oil is of large extent, that an extraordinary flow of oil is taking place and that some of the channels through which the oil flows have over two feet depth of the fluid. The lake contains oil of a very color and density. The story has created sensation at Nome and a stampede is sure to result.

MINING ALASKA COAL NEAR E]A|R
 SELOOV|A

Captain J. A. Herbert, who was the first men to secure a lease of coal lands from the government in Alaska, has already taken out more than three thousand tons from his leased prop erty at Bluff Point twelve miles from Seldovia. The output has been sold to Anchorage, steamers, the canneries and will soon be on sale in Seward. The coal is Ignite and the engineer of the Panama steamer Sinoloa, which tested in and brought 1O7 tons, said it was about the finest coal he ever used for steaming purposes. The veins crop out from a bluff right over the beach and a tunnel has been driven 300 feet into the solid coal SO that in future the sort of coal taken out will be far better than the coal from the surface. The government at Anchor age has used a large quantity and is so we'll pleased that the steamer Tyonic is continuing to haul it every day to the new railroad city. The mine has capacity of forty tons daily but this capacity can easily be in- creased and Captain Herbert has in sight enough coal for years and years. The coal shipped before from the sur face was not so good as the quality now being mined. The present output is so clean that handling it does not even soil the fingers. It is, therefore, Captain Herbert says, also ideal for domestic purposes. The captain is on his way to Seattle and will be able to let the world know that the coal which has been so long tied up by tn egov- ernment is now ready to aid in ethe territory's development.
