The bible IN PUBLIC oCHooLs.-ln
OHIO there has been long agitation Of
his subject which has now reached a
judicial decision. A year or two ago
the linclbnaii Board of Education pas
sed resolution declaring that religious
of all sorts, including the
reading of the Bible. should be prof ib-
tied in the public schools of the city.
The declared object of this action was
4. to allow the children of parents of all
sects and opinion $ in matters of faith
nd worship to enjoy ali ii, l.1ttt
of the common school fund"
Appealing from the school Board. the
friends of the Bible took their cause to
the Courts. praying an injunction to re-
srrain the Board from carrying the res
olution into effect. The Superior Court
of Cincinnati, after long hearing,
granted al injunction, and the Bible
was retained. But the Case was carried
to the Supreme Court of the State
where decision has just been rendered.
reversing the action OF the Superior
Court. and the Bible is thrown out.
The substance of the decision is that the
Courts have no jurisdiction in such
cases, the common schools being under
legislative irect;on exclusively. In
other words, where the Legislature has
plac. d the management Ill the hands OF
local boards the people must look to
them. This seems to accord with sound

Gus editors of the Steilacoom Express

TO the personal reflections INDUCED III
by our assailants, we Lave nothing to
say; this is style of controversy only
resorted to by those who lack the ablll-
tv To maintain their cause either by facts
or arguments, and Is the unm'staka-i ie
sion of either a bad cause or weak ad-
voeacy. Of the balance OF these afu :
cles put forth in the interest OF the land
ring there is little more can be sad ior
the very good reason that they amount
to nothing. The con- parison OF the ad-
vantages of Stelacoom and Tacoma over
Seattle is answered much more eifectu-
ally by the business and population OF
the places named than any words we
might effect. Steilacoom was flourish
ing town. supported by military sta
ton when Seattle had only an Indian
trading post. In the mean time. Seattle
has increased to 2 500 inhabitants, with
more trade than all the rest of the towns
upon the Sound combined and Stella
COON has less population ard much less
trade than it had ten years ago. Taco
ma never attracted business or popnla
ton, and never had settled population
of hundred souls. Seattle has grown
into. the first commercial town upon the
Sound solely by its own natural advan-
tages and resources and will maintain
its CON inercial supremacy in spite ol
,neefforts of the spectators and land
rings to destroy it.

T This ends the miserable farce played

Commissioners, under the false pretence
that the Northern Pacific Railroad Go.
was not owned, controlled and run ex-
clusively in the interest OF the land
ring--a combination more corrupt and
more false to the trust reposed III them
for the public benefit, than the Credit
Mo,ilier of infamous notoriety. we
have conceded and still maintain that
.Jndoe Rice and j. c. Ainsworth have
heretofore maintained a reputation for
honorable intention and fair dealing
,monp their fellow men; but neither OF
them stood fairer than did Oakes Ames
up TO the time of his connection with
railroad ring, and the proofs OF the con-
nection of the latter with the Credit Mo-
bilier were not more conclusive tnan the
nroof that Rice and Ainsworth have
been controlled in their location OF the
terminus in the interest OF the Lana
R;no connected with the Northern Pa
eihc Railroad Company. 1t IS now
manifest to all that their determination
IN This matter was settled before their
annointment, and that the propositions
invited from ohter points Was but a hhnd
TO deceive the pnblic as to their real IN
teptions. The offer from Seattle was
more than they or any one else dreamed
Of; and when weighed in the balance ol
honorable competition was ten times
more to the Railroad Company than Ia
coma had to offer. In fact. the present
location is nothing 20 the Company, but
everything to the Ring. 1t Is ou' "a re
,ost;t,on of the location at Duluth ana

still has the management OF the roau'
notwithstanding the recent changes III

AGAINST the ring, no place Will proh'

with Credit Mobilier in Its belly can
command the means to complete The
antern,ize. The direct line across the
mountains cannot be built within Inc
time limited by the Congressional gram
and a rail. oad from Kalama to Tacoma
is from no place to no place, which can
never command sufficient business to
pay running expenses.
Under these circumstances, oea''lt
has lost nothing by the decision OF 'he
Commissioners. The people have but
to act prompt, to secure more vainao'e
and direct connections. With the cap

AGREEMENT.-lt Is n suggestive fact
that all the newspapers upon the Sound
with a single interested exception, take
the same view of the terminus 10 cation,
.houeh no two Of these have heretofore
been known to entirely agree upon any
ot.er pubic matter The Port Town
send Arg,ls just prior to the public an
nouncement of the location, said:
1t is now almost positive that the ter
minus of the N. T. Railroad will either
be ut Tacoma or Seattle. There are
two things that may have caused the
selection thus to b.. made; the power OF
the Land Ring, or the lack of funds, or
possibly both causes may have affected
the choice of the location. One thing
Is certain, whe- her the terminus be 10
Gated ut Seattle or Tacoma, the location
so made will leave out tract Of coun
over which it would be very eXpen
sive to build road, ard the extensive
tract of land owned by the Land Ring
of Tacoma is known to be power al
work in favor Of Il at place.
The policy that has been pursued by
ihe North aru Pacific Company has well
nigh crushed it, and Its questionable
course, together with the disrepute that
the Credit Moblier has thrown on all
railroad enterprises in the United States
has made it next tc impossible to dis
pose of its bonds among foreign capt.
alists, and we have been Informed, from
very good authority. that the IS mile OF
road being constructed at this end of
the route is the only contract for road
buildlng that has been let by the com
pany this season.
