And now instead OF one of the larg-
est, we find II the smallest. Seaside,
with, exactly the same number Of pu-
pills receives just S450.0O more than
Newport, and as to unfortunate condi-
tions, they are found in many Of the
school districts of the County. and
believe the better way for us to do is
to all work together and make them
better for another year, but for the
present we will have to make the best
OF things as they are. II you intend
to reform our School System, suppose
you start with some OF the really bad
conditions, for instance:
In District No. 1, they are paying
two teachers to teach "a pupils. One
could do the work.
In District No. 2, the primary teach
er is getting $1,000 month for teach
ing Z or pupils.
In District No. s, one teacher Is
getting $500 a month for teaching
pupils.
In School Dist. No. 8, one teacher
is getting $500 a month for teaching
3 pupils.
There are others as bad. For these
conditions we cannot exactly blame
anyone. We cannot say to the teacher
"Get QUIT" and we cannot say to the
School Board, you should not have
hired so many teachers or paid such
wages" for last year the school had
more pupils.
am q student OF the Newport High
School, and would like to ask; since
when have the Toledo schools been set
up for Newport's pattern? Isn't that
rather a large dose TO ask us to swal-
low? You suggest that we wipe out
the Prlncipalship as they did, mean
ing Mr.. Ortman). Let me ask you
few questions. What was the repu-
tation of our High School before Mr..
ortman came? What has he done for
our schools? This paper would not
have room to print 1t all II should try
to tell It, but anyone who compares the
conditions two years ago with those
today cannot but feel grateful to Prof.
ortman and respect him as all his
pupils do. To suggest that we do
away with him and let the teachers
run the school in order to save his
salary of s1.53OOO, is about as sensi'
bic as to suggest that we let the Leg
islature run the State and do away
with the Governor in order to save the
Taxpayers his salary of s5,O00.oo.
These figures are compiled from the
Official oregon Blue Book, and are
correct:

FOR RHEUMATISM

The torture of rheumatism,
the pains and aches that make
life unbearable are relieved by
Sloan's Liniment, a clean clear
liquid that Is easy to apply and
more effective than mussy plas-
ters or ointment because it pen-
etrates quickly without rubbing.
For the many pains and aches
following exposure, strains,
sprains and muscle soreness
Sloan's Liniment is promptly eff
fective. Always have a bottle
handy for gout, lumbago, tooth
ache, backache, stiff neck and all
external pains. At druggists, rs

President Wilson had asked for
something he should not have want
ed. For years he has not been neu.
tral. He has been ally. He has let
Americans furnish arms, money, and
sympathy that all Germans resented
to England.
He has been surrounded by a Navy
crowd that wanted to fight; by army
men that wanted war; by munition
makers who wanted war; by money
bags like Morgan who wanted war:
and last but not least, by the news
papers Of that money crowd who want
ed profits regardless OF danger to
others
A lot of American fools have been
boarding ships carrying arms and con.
trabrand, and bowling for protection
they had no reasonable right to expect.
Now the president wants to arm our
trading vessels and tell them to shoot
any submarine they see. Harry Lane
objects. So do I.
Now 1t took lot Of moral courage
for Harry Lane to do as he did. He
knew it would hurt him politically. He
knew Wilson and others would pun
ish him for months. He knew Wilson
would have his way in few days.
Yet he stood out. Thank you, Harry.
1t is known to few that all of the
prominent American newspapers in
our largest cities are controlled by a
small crowd of capitalists. Those men
order what the papers print. The
same crowd control the print paper. I
have little doubt the big papers pay
only half rates or less Of the prices
Lincoln county papers pay. Notice

far from the right path, for a Demo-

The axe with which that person
works must be very dull or else the
line very crooked, as he states that Mr..
Ortman receives salary of $1,575 90
Tor the Principalship Of At pupils for 8
months. He said, Just stop and think

Line," the facts, If understand them.
are these; The Principal, (Mr. Genn)
receives the sum of 765.OO per year as
the Principal of the Newport High
School. Mr.. Ortman receives his
S1,5SO.00 (S1,575.OO in the Blue Book
was misprint) as the Superintendent
OF the Newport Schools and was hired
by the School Board as such.
The Editor must have overlooked
the fact that the High School pupils
are also familiar with that little Blue
Book when he juggled the figures 30
carelessly. do not deny that 1t was
clever, for few people can get that
book. We could have excused the mis-
takes (as he only spent two weeks on
the six or eight pages) did we not
know that he was fully informed of
his mistakes before the article was
printed.
You say read and compare the fol-
lowing figures. All right, but let's
take the true figures:
