Oregon School Law
Is Knocked Out

Washington-Oregon lost in the su-
preme court its fight to compel chill
dren to attend public schools.
The court held that the states, in
enforcing compulsory education laws,
cannot require the attendance of chill
dren in public schools, to the eXclu-
sion of private or parochial schools.
The Oregon compulsory education
law, requiring children between the
ages of 8 and 16 TO attend public
schools, therefore was declared in
valid.
In educational and religious circles
keener and wider interest was shown
in the attack upon the constitution
ality of the Oregon public school law
than in any other controversy which
reached the Supreme Court in recent
years.
Like most states, Oregon has a
compulsory education law which re-
quires children to attend school, and
prescribes the course of study. The
right to enforce such regulations has
not been seriously questioned in the
courts. But in 1922 the voters of
Oregon, 1866 to 103,685, went a
step further and enacted law under
which children between the ages of 8
and 16, with some exceptions, would
after September, 1925, be required to
attend public" schools.

SWANK GETS VACATION

Many things have happened within
the past year in our official city fam
ily which have occasioned surprise to
the public, but the unexpected deposi-
tion of Chief of Police SWank by
Mayor Stevens last week, was entire
ly unlocked for, as it was generally
supposed that these two were getting
along o. x. The order for a thirty
DAYS suspension was issued last Fri
day and the cause assigned was in
subordination.
While we do not entirely agree to
all the official acts of Chief Swank,
both friend and foe will admit that he
is an efficient officer of long expert
ence, and has never failed to dis
charge his duties thoroughly and
fearlessly. 1t is stated he incurred
the i'll will of the Mayor because he
objected to the latter assuming au-
thority not authorized by law and
countermanding orders issued by the
Chief, who has charge of the police
force and directs and controls the ac-
tions of the men.
But there is no pleasure in being a
frog in a puddle unless you are the
chief frog, and consequently our city's
alleged head felt constrained to prove
he was it by decapitating Charlie for
thirty days.

Fire and Enginemen
Are i'm Convention
(By Federated Press)

Detroit-A months work more or
less lies before the 900 delegates to
the Both convention of the Brother
hood Of Locomotive Firemen and En-
ginemen which opened in Detroit,
June /. Secretary-Treasurer A. II.
HaWley reports 112,264 dues paying
members in 1924 and cash assets Of
$13,500,000
President d. B. Robertson reports
satisfactory wage agreements
throughout the country. He warns
against attempts Of the rail manage
ments to collaborate with the work
ers in running union organizations.
AS employees we have claimed the
right to run our affairs in our own
way and we have denied the right of
the railroads to interfere" Robertson
told the delegates.
The Firemen now have Legislative
boards in every state and in Canada
and they cooperate with 19 other ma
tiOnal railroad labor organizations in
pressing for legislation at Washing
ton. Robertson recommends adher-
ence to the Conference for Progress

the railroad unions.

THEY SAY IT'S SO

1t is alleged that the gasoline tank
of the automobile of Miss Ethel Slack,
Red Cross nurse, while parked one
night this week in the yard OF the
central patrol station, was drained of
it's last drop of fuel, and that this
thing has happened before: At least
that is what the "Hired Man" read
in one of the city dailies.
This seems hardly possible, for it
would take a nervy kind of a cuss to
get away with this sort Of deal
headquarters-yet it reminds US OF
the time a few years ago when still
bolder yegg toted off the iron safe of
the billiard room just across the alley
from the patrol house, on a truck,
and hauled it down to the creek bank
to be pounded open with a sledge at
his leisure.
Truly this is an age of wonderful
achievements

LOOKS LIKE A GOOD THING

The prospect of bringing a rubber
novelty manufacturing plant to New
ark, as made public by the Chamber
OF Commerce at an open meeting on
Monday night, sounded mighty good
to most of those who were there;
Especially SO when the rating and
standing of the owners of the busl-
ness was vouched for by those who
had Investigated it. And then too a
big wad of cash is not asked for,
merely a loan of $500 upon which
interest will be paid.
A committee was appointed to see
representative citizens and business
men with a view of negotiating the
required loan.
Now that an opportunity is Offered
to those calamity howlers who have
been cussing the &C. of c." for not
bringing new industries to town, let
them help raise the small sum neces.
sary to land this new factory in New
ark.
Either put up or shut up!

evidently done by filing claims for
sheep killed by dogs, and wanting
substantial cash damages, when their
tax returns for 1924 and 1925 how
ed that they did not own any sheep
at all.
1t is said that there are about ten
birds of this kind already discovered,
and what the final outcome will be
is not known. But the safest plan is
to be sure the animals are listed on
your tax returns before you swear
the dogs killed 'em.

STORY NOT SO, SAYS MAYOR

The rumor, evidently started by
some misinformed or eVil-minded
person, that the Mayor and Service
Director were at swords points and
were wrangling over the recent pur-
chase of the big supply of water met
ers, with the result that His Honor
wanted to add the Directors scalp
to those already hanging to his belt,
is branded as false by Mr.. Stevens,
who is quoted as saying, eve are good
friends, and the meters are standard
and of a recognized type; they were
not bought by Director Fulke, but by
the board of control"

Fire at Sidney Bog

During the rapid firing for effect
by Battery c, 152nd Field Artillery,
at the North Augusta-Sidney Bog
range, Wednesday afternoon, which
was being observed by General Nor
ris B. Payne of Hartford, Conn.,,
commanding the 43rd Division, of
which the 152nd Artillery Battalion
Is a Unit, the dry growth in the bog
was fired from the high explosive
shells being used, and in the stiff
west wind blowing across the big
waste tract, the flames spread rap
idly in spite of the efforts of the ar
tillerymen to check them.
All men of Battery c, who were
on duty at the observation posts and
at the firing position near the North
Augusta Grange hall at the time,
were set to fighting fire, and Major
Malcolm S. w. Dingwall, command
ing the artillery battalion, rushed or
ders to Camp Keyes for more men
and equipment.
The troops of Batteries A and B
and the Headquarters were dis
patched to the scene with picks and
shovels in the big army trucks, and
a force of some $50 men were eX-
erting every effort to prevent any
further spread of the flames last
evening. The soldiers of Battery B,
who were on the range when the
command to cease firing came, and
who made a valiant effort to squelch
the underbrush fire at that time,
labored on until relieved by rein-
forcements from Camp Keyes, and
their evening meal was brought to
them by a detail from the camp field
kitchen.
Sidney Bog is vast tract of waste
land, heavily grown to blueberry and
cranberry bushes in spots and with
some hardwood timber of small
growth. There are stretches of sew
eral acres extent covered with swaIe
grass, and due to the long period Of
hot weather without any appreciable
rainfall the bog was very dry, and
after becoming ignited from the ar
tillery firing the blaze spread rap
idly. 1t was not believed last night
that any material damage would re-
suit from the fire and the officers Of
the artillery battalion expected to be
able to confine the blaze to the waste
bog land.
