SALT LAKE SCHOOLS
The Coming Year to be One of
Marked Progress.
MANY THRIVING INSTITUTIONS.
Class to University Represented
in this City.

The time is near at hand for the educa-
tional institutions to begin their years
work, and, as the schools of city are the
chief criterions of its progress, THE HER
AID notes with pleasure the progress and
development of the institutions OF learning
in Salt Lake.
The history OF the United States fur
nishes the proof. first that in nearly every
state the capital has become seat OF learn
ing for that state, and in many instances OF
a much larger section of country; second,
educational centers.
Salt Lake is the natural commercial cen
ter of Utah, eastern Nevada, southern
Wyoming and Idaho and western Colorado 4;
therefore also the natural educational CEN
center of all that region. This being the
case. citizens should take an honest pride
in the development OF her schools, and IN
the founding and support of colleges and
public libraries. Our public schools are
fast getting on solid basis and this year
promises TO be 4 marked one in their
era of PROCESS. We have here a university
which bids fair TO be the leading
university OF the west. Already the DeS-
eret university is superior in its curriculum,
variety of departments and corps Of
instructors, to similar institutions in our
neighboring capitals. Our preparatory
tages TO the student and their growth and
progress is phenomenal. The time is not
Tar distant when the student will not gain
an iota of advantage by patronizing eastern
institutions while losing Sympath; with
our western institutions.

Rev. Bishop Seaman. The college is new
and commodious building of brick with q
fine red stone basement. The class rooms,
study, hall. iormatories and corridors are

The Marist Fathers who regard edu ca
ton as one OF their principal objects are
untiring in their efforts 10 instil into the
hearts and minds of their pupils, the most
strict principles of virtue, as wellass the
knowledge of all branches OF sound and
practical education. They are resolved To
spare neither pains nor expense 10 keep the
college abreast of the times.
The commercial course which has
hitherto worked successfully, Will, this
season, be supplemented by an actual ousl-
ness course, where theory and practice 90
hand in hand. The course will be made
one OF the leading features OF the college IN
the coming year.

courses, preparatory, commercial and col
legiate. Although still young II gives

SOME QUERIES.
An Active Temperance Worker Puts Some
Pertinent Questions TO Dr. IliH

An Active Temperance Worker Puts Some
Pertinent Questions to Dr. Iif
To The Editor OF THE HERALD:
Is it fact that the Rev. Tiff and other
ministers in this city and county are tenn
perance men, and have they not in press
and pulpit declared that they were op-
posed TO the present city administration in
that it supported intemperance, gambling,
prostitution and other evils that have
brought our fair city and territory in dis
repute. And did not they call a mass
meeting some time ago OF all citizens TO
protest against these outrages, at the First
Methodist church, and didn't they so pro
test against the party now in power. and
did they not advocate and affirm that when
the time came so the people through the
ballot could give expression to their senti-
ment, they would assuredly do so, and
change the present administration, with
their supporters, and give the city and
county good government:
Is il a fact that Rev. Tiff and other
church people worked side by side with
those against whom they had protested, on
election day, and advised their frSeuds and
acauaintances TO vote said Liberal ticket /.
Now. we ask, if said Rev. DR.. Tiff and
others who claimed they were opposed to
immortality and intemperacce, were honest
and sincere. why all this change of base so
suddenly. And is 1t not stab in the
back to all honest temperance
workers. And will the action of
such persons not give the cause of temper
apce a deathly blow, from which it will
take some time TO recover! And is not all
this pious talk of church, priests and peo-
pie mere buncombe and sham, and as re
ported TO have been said by one learned
legal gentleman, is not all their praying
and preaching mere bosh. An answer to
these questions would perhaps be interest
ing TO your numerous readers, and to none
more SO than one who has the cause of
temperance at heart and is willing to back
I'D his profession not only by his words but
by mis- means and acts. Yours for truth
and right, A TEMPERANCE WORKER.
