Olympia's Schools and Educational
Institutions.

In point Of educational privileges
Olympia stands second to no city on
the Pacific coast. She bids fair to be-
come the Athens Of the West. Hard
to suit, indeed, must the student be
numerous curricula of her institutions
the special line Of study which he may
wish to pursue. The beautiful loca-
ton; the uncqualcd views OF smiling
landscapes, OF mountain grandeur, Of
placid bay; the cquablc climate, all
combine to make Olympia the haven
OF the student, a seat of learning, the
home of schools and scholars.
The Olympia Collegiate Institute is
the Oldest OF Olympia's private schools.
Members of the alumni Of this school
may be found in nearly every county
in the State and testify to the good
work done by the Institute. The fac
ulty has recently been recognized,
and no pains were were spared to Sc
cure men Of fine reputation and high
standing in the educational world.
Several thousands OF dollars have been
expended the past summer for addi
tional buildings.
Providence Acadademy is a school
for young ladies, under the charge OF
the Sisters of Charity. The school
has an excellent reputation, is well
patronizcd and has constantly in
oreasing attendance.
Calathoa College IL a recently incor-
porated institution of learning. Its
curriculum offers the student Il choice
of classical, normal, business and mu-
steal courses. Its incorporators are
well known citizens of Olympia. Per-
manont buildings are to be erected tho
coming year.
The pride of Olympia is her public
schools. They comprise complete
system Of Primary and Grammar
Schools and High School.
The course of study has been care
fully revised and heightened, and in
cludes thorough course in the COM
mon branches and an advanced course
in Mathematics, English, Sciences and
Latin, fitting students for business or
to enter college or university.
The enrolment for 1SS7-S was $40 !;
for 1852, 40; for 1SS9-90, ISL; and
for the present year it promises to cx-
coed 500.
Two beautiful brick school buildings,
costing, including equipment, about
$50, 900 each, are now nearing compile
ton. These buildings, in beauty OF
architecture, in convenience of arrange
ment, in completeness of detail are
surpassed by none east or west and
probably equalled by few, if any, in
the State.
A live, energetic Superintendent and
an earnest, enthusiastic corps OF
teachers, supported by q progressive
school board and the cooperation of the
people are making Olympia's schools
equal to the best for thoroughness and
effectiveness.

Olympia on Merit.

There is no reason whatever why the
vote of the people of Western Washing
ton should not he unanimous for Olym-
pia as the capital of the new and inn
portaat State just ushered into the
the American Union. The larger part
of the population is in that section west
OF the mountains, all OF which will find
it vastly more convenient to reach
Olympia than to go to any point east
of the Cascades, which fact ought to
settle the question ut once, on the basis
OF " the greatest good to the greatest
number" Then consider for a mo-
ment that the two great cities OF Seat
tie and Tacoma, both contiguous to
Olympia, are the largest in the State
and certainly growing as rapidly, and
probably great deal more rapidly than
any within the borders of the common
wealth, not emitting the prosperous
and growing cities OF Bellingham Bay
and OF Port Townsend, Montesano,
Aberdeen, Hoquiam, Centralia, Che
halls, Vancouver and many others,
which find Olympia more accessible,
and none of them being candidates for
capital honors, greatly prefer the pres
ent location to any change, especially
to any point beyond the mountains.
The location, accessibility, pleasant
surroundings and the social and intel
lectual character of Olympia is such
that she ought to receive the support
of every voter in the State, especially
OF the Western section. A very large
portion of the people of Eastern Wash
ington also prefer Olympia as the seat
of government, and in an unselfish,
patriotic and noble spirit are giving it
a generous and hearty support. Moth
ing but the selfish interests of Il few
who are engaged in town-site specula-
tons at one or two points east of the
mountains, are arraycd against Olym-
pia on this question, but they are
making strenuous efforts to capture
the indifferent vote and are expanding
money lavishly and resorting to I'M
scrupulous means to achieve their pur-
poses, regardless OF all considerations
of public interests. In cordially in
viting and urging the cooperation of
the people of the State to secure an
overwhelming vote for Olympia, our
citizens are not actuated by any spec
ulative or sectional motive, but know
ing that it is very near the geograph-
ical center, and the actual center OF
the business and population of the
State, and that no valid reason can be
given for change of the seat of gov
eminent, they place their city before
the people on her merits, confident Of
the result.
