3CchOOL Notes
by Miss Virginia Luten
N County Supt

A bill has been introduced in
TO the Legislature by Senator
Montgomery which provides for
the maintenance OF the State Nor
NAL Schools and State University
out of the common school fund of
the State instead of the general
fund as they are now maintained.
This means that, should this bill
become a law, S237 600 would be
taken from the common school
fund and teachers salaries would
be decreased. Such a measure
would drive many of our best
teachers from the work and seri-
ously cripple our public schools.
The common school fund is the
fund out of which the State per
capita is paid TO rural, graded
and city schools. Those who do
not wish this fund to be depleted
should protest against the bill.
There seems 10 be much inter
ost manifested in the Edmiston.
Cayce and Rush Creek districts
in having a better school. They
are considering the plan Of con
solidating and having a high
school department. There is no
doubt that an excellent school can
he maintained in this way. We
suggest that the patrons of these
districts talk the matter over
with their respective trustees and
then the matter can be put before
uhe county board and q vote call
ed if wanted. A school of this
kind composed of the three dis
tricts should have at least three
teachers, two for the grades and
one for the high school. At the
next meeting of the county board,
Feb. 10Th, the matter will be
given consideration and the com
munity can be notified what Il.
nancial aid the county can give
toward the new building and TO
ward maintaining the high school
department.

HUGHES CARRIES
OREGON BY $4,000
Olcott Endorsed For Secretary Of
State and IL. HI. Corey. of Salem.
Wins Nomination Over Ed
Wright For Public Service
Commissioner.

Chas. E. Hughes of New York, and
member of the supreme court bench
of the United States, received the Re-
publican nomination in Oregon for
president, getting a majority OF the
votes cast. Albert B. Cummins, of
Iowa, was second and Theodore E.
Burton, of Ohio, poor third. The
result of the election in Oregon has
added great impetus to the Hughes
boom in the East and he is now con-
sidered stronger, although ever the
same silent candidate for the great
national convention next month in
Chicago.
In Morrow county Justice Hughes
carried, with but one exception, ev-
cry precinct. The exception was Irri-
gon, which went for Cummins 13 to
II with only one vote for Burton.
His majority over the state will ex-
ceed $4,000. Theodore E. Roosevelt
has received the progressive endorse
ment.
Ben W. Olcott, present incumbent,
won over Chas B. Moores, the other
republican candidate for the secre-
tary of state nomination by $4,000
votes. In Morrow county Olcott re-
ceived S62 votes to his opponents
333.
AS predicted before the primaries,
the closest race developed in the con-
test for the public service nomination.
H. H. Corey, present secretary of the
commission, has apparently won out
over Ed Wright, of La Grande, his
nearest opponent. The others fin
ished in order named, McCulloch,
Kyle, Service and Rusk. In Morrow
county Wright was first with 1862,
Kyle second with 153 and Service
third with 1856. Corey received "a
\ votes, McCulioch n and Rusk so.

FIND PROCLAMATION
INCITING HOLY WAR
British Claim Document Produced in
Germany Proclaimins War Against
All Non-Germanic Christendom.

The British Embassy gave out a state
ment yesterday morning to the effect
that among the documents found at the
Austrian Consulate at Sslonika are 800
copies of a long Arabic proclamation to
the chiefs OF the Senussi, melting them
to holy war on non-Germanic Christen-
dom. The statement from the embassy
says:
They were found in a sealed parcel
addressed to Austrian military attache.
Athens. The proclamation contains the
following words:
"'Of all the instruments Allah has
chosen for the protection of our religion
the surest is the German nation. In
these circumstances, we have realized
the imperious necessity of proclaiming
a holy war. In Northern Africa, the
most powerful ruler. and one possessing
most authority In Mussulman world, is
his excellency, the Imaum illustrious
examplar champion of Islam In the cause
of Allah, who is our Lord and master.
the sure guide of all elect. This leader
is bred in the truth of the Koranic law,
and his soul shining with its pure efful-
gence has undertaken the task Of purify
ing all corrupt souls and directing them
in paths of life revealed by holy book
given all Musselmans.'
There is evidence that this procIaua-
ton was produced in Germany, a coun-
try whose monarch is always invoking
God" adds the embassy statement
