Tbs GElSp jury of Washoe county
wind up their Report rs follows:

We have serious doubts as to the pro-
priety OF county officers travelling with
tree passes. furnished by railroad COM
panies. As there is no direct statute
against the practice, the recipient of this
unequivocal favor may content himself
with the happy reflection that he violates
no law: but whether the duties of his
office be ministerial or deliberative. and
whether lie lie swervei from duty on not,
he cannot be free from Il sense of ob,iga-
ton to the company. nor can he escape
ut least suspicion Of corruption. All
o which is respectfully submitted.
We have long been i'll = mind to ap-
prove of this sort of a suggestion. There
is 10 better reason why public officer
should ride free ON railroad than that
lie should be boarded free ut a hotel or
get his garments for nothing. So. toe
with the newspaper fraternity. The ctli-
torial de,d-kend Is not properly Iii order.
Railroad companies pay fOr their adver-
'iseins hts and job printing, and they i'll
turn. should be paid for carrying the
publishers and editors whom they thus
help to support. IN Editor whose opin-
ion can be bought with a railway pass is
not to be appraised nj a very high va!u

A Fafr Field,

Seventy-fve students have entered the
Massachusetts Normal Art School. More
than half of this number are ladies. The
director of the school, Mr.. Walter Smith,
says, concerning them, that ''if it be found
that in this race the pace is too severe for
women, and they have to fall out OF the
ranks to save themselves, then, as that will
be their own act and deed and not be
thrust upon them by others, no one can
complain, and the world will be grateful
that one phase of this interesting subject
has been fairly tested and fairly solved.
The most strenuous advocates of women g
rights have, believe, never asked for more
than a fair field and no favor, and here
they have it most completely. For my
part, experience has educated me upon this
question, and have never had lot nor part
in any scheme which deliberately ignored
in one half the human race faculties OF the
utmost value, which are proved to exist
and await development, and l have seen
nothing in this country to change my opin-
ion, but very much to confirm it,

An amusing anecdote is told in connec.
ton with one of the Arundel owls. On one
occasion, at dinner at Arundel Castle, the
butler caused great merriment by coming
into the room, and saying, in q solemn
voice, "May it please your grace, Lord
Thurlow has laid an egg" The late Duke
of Norfolk was asked if the story was true.
His grace said, "Yes, we have always be-
lieved it in the family; but do You know why
the bird was called Lord Thurlow? Lord
Thurlow and his daughter were once STAY
ing at the castle, and the young lady went
to see the owls. On passing one of them.
she stopped suddenly and exclaimed, 90:
how like papa!" and the bird was ever after
ward called Thurlow. 1t must have been a
very wise looking bird, for Lord Thurlow
looked exceptionally wise, even for a Judge.
Fox, the statesman, once said, II suppose
no man ever was 90 wise as Thurlow looks"
