This institute, on Fidalgo Island, is pre-
pared to furnish thorough and economical
education TO students of both sexes. The
location is favorable to health and light
expense, and also because OF the quiet and
removal from city alurements. Ad-
vancement rapid, by individual attention

UNIFORM RATES NEEpED.-We
take this method Of suggesting to
the newspaper fraternity of Wash
,ington Territory that a convention
be called at some convenient time
and place, to enable publishers TO
agree upon a system of uniform
rates for legal advertising. 1t Is
q well known fact that great divers
ity of charges obtains from various
causes. Unwise competition, undue
leniency of publishers toward beg
ging litigants and administrators, as
well as many other causes, often op'
crate to unsettle prices aud degrade
the business. "The laborer is wor-
thy OF his hire" Especially is this
true in the case of editors and print
ers, who are proverbislly he poorest
paid professional men in the coun-
try, in proportion to the labor per-
formed. Uniform prices would do
Justice to all, and thus harm no one
while bene6tting others. We hope
this subject will receive prompt and
careful consideration at the hands of
those most interested. Seattle
would be a suitable place to meet.

lowing expression of coincidence was

sustained by the sudden and unexpected
death of our worthy fellow-member, Will
LIAM KLUGE, and hereby tender our most
heartfelt sympathy TO the bereaved fami-
ly of the deceased, who have lost in him

The new pOstoffice and United States
court house at the present rate of doing
business will probably be ready for Oceu-
pancy some time during the next three
years. Mike Butler. Col. Cook or any of
our city contractors could easily have
completed the building within six months
and saved the government thousands Of
dollars. IL the work continues much
longer the fees paid architects, clerks
and hangers-on will amount to more
than the cost Of the building. We
understand that when the work was
first commenced the government paid
fellows travelling expenses aud
eight dollars per day to come down here
from Washington TO tie n knot or two in
the derrick ropes and see that they were
all right and perfectly safe. When he
reached here he discovered ladder with
lot of ropes attached 10 IL, and one OF
the derricks on the ground. He paid a
small boy dime 10 tell him which was
the derrick, and when the proper time ar
rived, u negro laborer tied the necessary
knots, and the "rigger," for so they
dubbed him returned 10 Washington and
thus il is red tape and natural Incllna-
ton TO beat Uncle Sam and waste the
public funds. II the Democrats were In
need Of any campaign materialthey could
get lot of II out OF the new postoftice
and court house building now in course
of erection At this place.

The other night at a late hour and just
about the time Mr.. Hofheintz, con-
Quoting general dry goods and gro
Gerry business on South Red River street,
was closing up for the night, he observed
four men near the store. They APP
preached, and seeing another man, we
believe Mr.. Hofheintz's brother, in the
store, stopped. and one of them draw
ing pistol fired four times in
the direction of the store door,
one Of the balls entering through the
door and lodging in lot Of goods. II Is
the general belief that these men were
bent on committing robbery but the APP
pearance of two men in the store caused
them to give up the job and they fired
the shots out Of pure cussedness. Mr..
Hofheintz did not recognize either OF
the men but he thinks all were white.
