REFoRM.-Our City Council are tax
ing prompt and energetic measures to
redeem this city from the imputation of
being the most lawless and dissolute
place upon Puget Sound. 1t has been
determined to suppress public gambling,
close saloons and business houses on
Sunday, and enforce the laws vigorously
and impartially. Now, if our police
officers do their duly as directed, our
citizens will not be ashamed to have
strangers to look over our town any
day i'll the week. 1t will be observed
also, that in anticipation of this en-
forcement of proper police regulations,
large share of our vagabond popula-
ton have left for other parts, and Jour
city is assuming the aspect of a well
regulated and law-abiding community.
We may now reasonably anticipate that
by the opening of another spring, pub
lie houses of prostitution and dens of
vice will not openly faunt their yocations
to the public gaze.

Mr.. Would it not be we'll
to call the attention Of the public to the
manner in which the public school is
conducted in this place I refer to tho
giving of certain divisions of the school
to teachers not compelled to work for a
living; married women having hus-
bands to support them when there are
so many widows and single women de-
pending on their own exertions for sup
port. For years one department Of this
school has been given to a married wom-
an not compelled to support herself and
and now the same school has been given
to a married woman--one having mon
ey enough at interest to support her
handsomely, and husband in good
business besides, while refined and
educated widow with child to support
besides herself ha= appealed in vain for
tie situation, to say nothing of others
who made application, needy bat equally
competent with the one just appointed.
There is too much favoritism permitted
the directors in this respect. One di-
rector may be acquainted with a lady
for whom he has decided preference.
He fiattered by her sophistry and blan-
dishments is determined that she shall
have the school and so insists upon it
that he finally influences the other di-
rectors and succeeds. Public opinion
at last getting too powerful for that to
continue, another director insists upon
a relative having the school, and sue
cceds i'll placing a woman already in
comfortable circumstances in a lucrative
position to the exclusion of the really
needy. A reform in this matter is re-
quired and should be attended to.

every citizen here knows that all these
things are but subsidiary to the main
business of sGuaw brothel, and it is
known to many that young bows, as well
as fathers of families, are attracted to
this place by mere idle curiosity; but
can no more escape from it without con-
tamination than they can touch pitch

FAIR PLAY.-We know nothing of the
merits of the question discussed by our
correspondent over the above title; but
if there is any favoritism or nepotism
in the school department of our local

public censure, for there is no more
common abuse of official power, or any
to be more deprecated.

John Pinnell conclude to adopt the SEN

So long, however, as he pursues his
present lawless and nefarious pursuits,
he is public enemy, terror to every
virtuous family in the community and q
material obstacle to the progress of the
community in business, religion and
good morals. He uses the wages of
prostitution, of the most debased char
