.IoNAM AND TmE WHALE.

Over in Davenport, Lincoln county, a
son Of citizen of that county recited some
doggerel verses in school, intimating that
the whale did not swallow Jonah It ap-
peared that the teacher inquired one after
noon if the boy had piece to recite. He
said that he knew but one, entitled "Jonah
and the Whale" The teacher made no
further inquiry but remarked, 'fThe whale
swallowed Jonah, all right The next
day, when the boy had nearly completed
the recitation, the teacher ordered him to
stop and take his seat. He promptly
obeyed. The teacher declared, Il will not
allow amy such blasphemy in my school;
we all love our God" On Monday the said
boy-Henry Selde-was expelled from the
school. His father, Peter Selde, Sr., waited
on the members Of the school board and
entered a protest, demanding the reinstat-
ing Of his son as pupil of the school, He
was informed the board would sustain the
teacher. The child has thus been deprived
Of the right and privileges of education
since that time, Dec. IA, 1891. Peter Selde
Sr., the father Of the said pupil, Henry
Selde, thus testifes. q waited ON the
school board, they promised to look into
the matter and let me know their decision.
Myself and family were taken down with
lagrippe and did not hear from them;
soon as got well enough to 60 to town [
called on Mr.. Plough, one of the school
board. He said the board had decided the
boy could come to school If he would ask
forgiveness of the whole school, and speak
a piece to be selected by the teacher, and
not otherwise. Mr.. p. told me to go to the
clerk and he would give me this decision
Of the board in writing. Theclerk declared
no decision had been made, other than that
the school board would sustain the teacher,
C. B. Reynolds, secretary ofthe Wash
ington Secular union, has sent Superin-
tendent Bryan the facts Of the case, say
ing: 81 respectfully solicit your Issuing
peremptoTy orders to the members Of the
school board, Of school district No. ID.
Davenport, Lincoln county, Washington,
to Teinstate the said pupil, Henry SeIde, in
the school, and that he be allowed to re-
aume his studies without prejudice, let or
hindrance on account ofany religious belief
or sentiment he OF his parents may enter
tain. And will you please instruct the
said school board and the teacher of said
school that IT is not the teachers right,
privilege or duty to dictate in matters Of
religious belief, or to reward or punish pu-
pills because Of their entertaining religious
belief or sentiments at variance with those
held by the teacher or the school board,
much less to expeI children from the school
and debar them from pursuing their edu-
cation because they recite something the
teacher had failed to first read or hear. Mr.
Bryan had no jurisdiction in tile case and
so informed Mr. Reynolds.

OILY NJ IA,
Thurston County.

It has superior advantages over all other
points on Puget Sound.
1t is the capital Of the state and has finer
location than any city in the state.
The immense water Of the Des Chutes river
makes it desirable place for manu-
factories.
Olympia is at the head Of navigation on
Puget Sound
It has the Northern Pacific and lie Port
Townsend Southern railroad running
through it and the Onion Pacific in
course Of construction.
Ills connected with all points of the state
and country by rail and steamer
lines.
L has fine agricultural, fruit, timber and
mineral country back Of it,
There is no reason to doubt that
Olympia il the next ten years will
become city Of $4,000 population.
She may not become a great sea-
port and commercial center like
Seattle or Tacoma, but she will be
second to them alone.
Perhaps no more satisfactory
evidence can be found than the
opinions Of men of known ability
and wide experience, and certainly
none are keener nor more observant
than the managers of the great
railload system The fact that SO
many lines have made Olympia
their objective, shows clearly the
confidence these able men have in
her future growth.
General Sherman in brief
speech to the citizens here many
years ago said that Olympia was
natural, strategic and commercial
point, and that one of the greatest
cities on the Sound would one day
grow up here.
Olympia, too, is a city of homes,
Of schools, Of gardens, and fruit
trees and shade trees, a city which
draws visitors, and attracts families
OF means and refinement, families
with children to school and bring
up, as a place of residence.
The capital Of such a state as
Washington would alone suffice to
build up no mean city The per-
nnanent residence of the governor
and state officers, the seat Of the
United States land and surveyor
generals offices, the place of meet
ing Of the legislature, the supreme
court, and many state boards, must
attract considerable population.
Come to Olympia if you want to
make permanent residence in a
splendidly growing state and city.
