especially science, but all these are little
more than in their incipiency, anu lime
only will show how wisely we nave Oull'
our hopes.
CONCLUSION.
From what we have said, it is not to
be inferred that there is no room io'
Improvement. Much more must be
done In the future than in the past:
Our advancement will demand more Oh
ms in itself and will enable US TO see our
former defects, and will demand that
thew be remedied. We must give close
attention 10 the selection OF men 70
I'll offices who are thoroughly compe-
tent, and who are also willing 70 Norki
not merely for the dollars ana cents
in the position, but for a higher puT,
pose. Good teachers only shoulu
be employed in the Districts ana these
confined solely to the duties OF iheir call
ing. Central high schools IN the couh-
tries should also be established as soon
as there is sufficient patronage where
the student can get the necessary pre-
paration for a higher education, which
should be furnished him by State IN
stitutiou. such as the University OF
Deseret only more literally supported
by State assistance than IL IS at the pre-
sent time, so that it can dispense en-
tIrely with its preparatory departments,
now so necessary to the maintenance OF
the institut on.
Our progress is slow but sure, and
with the elements that exist IN our
midst. we are content TO leave 1t IN the
hands of time, TO the operation OF ma
turaI causes, confident that such a
future awaits US in education, that Utah
will have no cause TO blush when COM
pared with any other State or Territory
in the Union.

HIGHER EDUCATION.

In regard to higher education not q
great deal has been done. There is but
one institution supported by the State,
namely, the University of Deseret. audit
IS only by courtesy that we can say this
o. 1t, as the 5000 appropriated snnu-
ally 10 Its use is made on the condition
that forty students be educated each
year IN the normal department, free Of
charge for tuition, books, etc, hence
this sum may be considered as little
more than a simple payment for
services rendered. II is true that some
$1,000 was appropriated by the State
Tor building purposes, but this amount
represents only small portion of the
outlay on the present University build

OUR SHOWING.

If we make comparison with many
of the States and Territories, such as
California, Oregon, and others, Utah
may not be able to show as large an ex-
penditure Of means in the erection of
fine school buildings, and consequently
many might be inclined to think that
Utah is far behind, but dollars'and cents
are only primd .fdeie evidence Of what is
done in education. When we come to
examine more closely actual results, we
shall see that Utah is not near so far
behind, and IN fact from an actual COM
parison, according 70 the last census re-
ports, stands far ahead not only of most
Of the Territories but Of a great many
States, some of which can not plead a
recent settlement as the cause OF their
backwardness either, as they are among
the Oldest members Of our Union.
The people Of the Territory show
strong tendencies in the direction Of art.
though We have no means OF making an
actual comparison with the results in
other States and Territories under SINH
lar conditions. Not much encourage
ment in art can be expected from the
population OF q new country, but here
We have beginning in the right direc-
ton and time viii no doubt develop
very satisfactory results. We have a
firm faith in our future in art.
There IS good material in mathematics
the useful arts, language, letters, and

PARTY POLITICS.

One serious drawback 70 the proper
advancement and efficiency Of our
public school system arises from the
fact that in many parts of our Territory
there exist two elements that can not be
made 10 harmonic. namely. Liberal"
aud Peoples" party. As the dis
tricts are mostly under the control OF
the latter element, the former are very
often opposed 70 the payment of taxes
for the support OF the schools: as an
instance we may call 70 mind the case
decided by Judge Zane but a few DAYS
ago, and yet other cases. The Lib
eral" element feel that these schools are
supported and controlled by "Mor-
mons" and they do not wish their
children to be brought up under such
influences, however strict trustees aud
teachers may be in the faithful dis
cha ge of their duties, and in avoiding
the introduction Of anything pertaining
TO religion into the public school. The
| 'non-Mormonh often sends his chill
dren 10 some mission school where rates
of tuition are high, and at the same time
has to pay tax for the support OF a
school he does not wish 10 support. On
the other side we notice also tendency
e..
establishing schools of the Mormon
Church, where children NAV be edu-
Gated not only in the common branches
OF an education, but also IN the doctrines
OF their parents. Here, also, a similar
hardship follows, as they are Obliged TO
| pay the regular school taxes, though
! they receive no benefit from them. So
strong Is the feeling between the two
parties, that many have come to the
/ opinion that the best thing to do, would
be 10 abolish our school system en-
tirely, and let each faction establish
schools of its own. Just what would be
the result of such a change is difficult
70 predict. Each side would be indie
/ pendent OF the other, and might
establish its own schools, and a certain
rivalry might be inspired between them
that would be productive Of good on
/ both sides.

A STYLE Of Lctter-Writin;.

The character and style Of letter.writing
changes quite as much rs anything olse in
the world of fashion. The neatly written,
closely lined epistes OF former times look
as provincial now us by-gone costumes. The
present mode is Of dashy style, quite In
keeping with the spirit fthc times. Rough
Irish linen paper unrulei, n tub psn and
q sprawling chirography go to make up the
hurried notes one receives nowadays In lieu
of tho long friendly letter of olden times
The art of Correspondence, which used TO 10
con idered ono of the greatest accomplish
ments our grandmothers possessed, may be
recovered among the lost arts
At the present day the society women has
no time for letter writing, but when ncces-
sity demands her writing at all she sits down
in the hurry IL the moment and with
business-like air dashes of note covering
several pages, it is true but containing
about "a much matter as could easily be put
upon the dcspised postal card, and then her
duty is done. The old saying that letter
show, tho character Of tho one to whom
IL is written, il it DO true, would argue the
modern society woman tritc too blase, Of
too fast. one or the o.ber. There Is Al
much character in a vonan's writing ms In
her voice. and one feels a little awed upon
oroning a modern billet-douZ, in character
like a printed placard, as lie would upon

The Women of the French Commune.
In reply TO inquiries during recent con-
versation viii an ex-diplomat he gave the
following explanation Of the presence Of the
female element in the commune:
1T is a great mistake" said he, to thins
that the pstro.euses and other women con-
cerned In the commune atrocities were COM
posed Of the lowest dregs Of the capital On
the contrary, they were most Of them the
wives, sisters and mothers Of the laboring
classes who had been driven wild by want
and starvation. Here in France the wife OF
the petty trader, Of tho mo 'hanic, Of the
aborer, Is really a guardian angel No
matter how small the wages, how little tho
income, she always manages by extrsord-
mary devices to put something away for .
rainy day. Well, when the siege began all
trade and all works were stopped and during
the long dreary months when tho capital
was cncircled by the enemy tn, laborinS
classes practically lived on the savings Of
the housewife.
Toward the close Of the siege the distress
/ had become 80 great that large numbers OF
infants and young cbil,lren persisted from
want of sufficient nouri,hment Then the
siege came TO an end, AM all looked for
ward to beginning work immediately But
| for some weeks after the capitalization there
was a period Of commercial and industrial
