THE SCHOOL ELECTION.

Today's high school election is a matter
of great interest to the people, and par
ticularly so to the taxpayers. In the minds
of many there is doubt as to the necessity
for this election, the popular opinion be-
ing that the whole question was settled by
the bond election held in February last.
For the purpose of presenting the case in
telligently to the voters THE TRIBUNE gives
the successive steps in the high school pro-
ceedings which lead up to the present
election.
Last winter the board called an election
to vote on issuing $4,000 for the purpose
of erecting high school building and to
fund outstanding warrants. The election
was carried. The board at once proceeded
to advertise for sale of bonds and also for
plans. By closer study of the law there
arose doubt as to the power of the board
to proceed to build without instructions to
do so. The mateer was presented to differ
ent attorneys of the city and opinions
varied. There also arose a doubt as to the
suficiency of the notice calling the bond
election. 1t was contended that the
amount to be used for the school house,
and the amount to be used in cashing war
rants should be stated separately; also the
site on which the building was to stand.
On account of these questions the board
deemed it prudent to return the whole
matter to the voters, hence today's cleo
ton.
1t is the purpose of the board to erect a
$4,000 building and the question is: Shall
such a building be erected on Union
street, between Washington and Franklin
streets2
If the people want the building the work
will proceed. If they do not, it is proba-
BILE no money will be borrowed, so that the
question of a separate building for the
high school is before the voters on its
merits. The welfare of the schools de.
mand two additional rooms, one for a high
school teacher and one for a grade teacher.
Those who favor the new building do so to
keep the schools of the Capital city in the
lead of the educational work of the state,
and that to do this properly new build
ing is a necessity. The opponents of the
movement say that the attic story in the
Washington building was designed fol
high school purposes, and that an expend-
iture of $4,000 will put it in shape for high
school purposes for several years to come;
that the interest, janitor, fuel, etc., for a
new building will necessitate an annual
expense of fully $1,000, and that the heavy
bonded Indebtedness of the district and
city will do more harm during the next
two or three years than an imposing school
building will do good, if the building is not
necessity. Another source of opposition
is to the cheap building proposed. 1t is
argued that the district should wait few
years and erect a more commodious build
ing. The proposition is a debatable one,
and one to be carefully considered by the
voters

THE NICARAGUA CANAL.

Ex-senator Warner Miller, president OF
the Maritime Canal company, of Nicaragua,
while on his recent visit to the Sound and
the Pacific coast, perfected arrangements
by which the Bank of California, of San
Francisco, has become the financial agent
Of the company for the whole Pacific coast
in the matter Of the projected loan which
is to be raised by the sale of S5,OOO,OOO of
the Nicaragua company's 6 per cent. collat-
sral trust gold bonds The bank will re-
ceive all subscriptions to the loan, receive
and give receipts for 10 per cent. of the sub
scription, which, under the terms of the
loan, is to be paid at the time of subscrip-
ton, and deliver the bonds to subscribers
on payment of the balance of their sub
soriptions, which is to be paid on or before
July 1, 1892.

PROPHECY VERIFIED.

A short term of years before the construc-
ton Of the railroad from Olympia to Te-
ninO, during one of those sleepy seasons
that used to periodically invest our then
unostentatious city, two gentlemen were
standing upon the Charles Williams wharf
just beyond Tacoma hall. This wharf was
in those days the western terminus of
Fourth street, as Long bridge was some
thing not thought Of by even progressive
Olympians.
The elder of the two men, and he has
now gone over to the silent majority, re-
marked to his companion: 81 can see in my
minds eye two trains Of passenger cars Just
rounding into sight over yonder, One
train has just come from Portland and the
other from Hodgdsn's station (Tenino)
The one skirts PercivaIs water front and
glides away down to anchoring ground,
and the other comes dashing into the heart
Of Olympia. 1 can see bridge springing
from this wharf upon which we stand and
reaching to the other side, with draw for
the passage of sea-going craft. 1 may not
live to see all this with my natural eyes,
Wv eANSS OA4A69 d4O OOlulAB IuGS6
startling words were uttered by the Hon.
Joseph Cushman only short time before
his death, and the incident was related to-
day to TRIBUNE representative by the
gentleman who was standing by the side
of Mr.. Cushman and with whom the no.
BILE old prophet was conYersing.
About the time the first train came into
Olympia from Tenino, and when most
people were very enthusiastic over the
matter, somebody ventured to predict that
the time would come when Olympia and
Tumwater would have street railway con-
nection. This brought out hearty laugh
Of incredulity, and old mossbacks who
bOasted Of being here when Mount Rainier
was hole in the ground, solemnly de-
clared that such thing would never take
place, "even in the remotest ANIMAL of
Olympia's history" The best comment
on these ludicrous conceits of the olden
days is the degree of progress now attained
by our proud Capital city. 1t is perfectly
safe to say that Olympia is on the high
road to metropolitan prosperity and re-
OOwn
, 1892-05-27

in general is heartily in favor of the Mica
ragua canal, and believes sincerely in its
feasibility, and is fully aware of the ad-
vantages to commerce which would accrue
in the event of its completion, but doubts
exist as to whether the best means have
been selected to raise the money necessary
for its construction. If instead of trying
to make loan of $5,OOO,OOO the Nicaragua
Canal company would make the amount
S2O,OOO,OOO, with the agreement that no
call should be issued until the entire
amount had been subscribed, we feel sure
that it would succeed much better. It
would popularize the loan, for people
would see then that the amount asked for
would be large enough to effect some sub
stantial progress, whereas $4,000, ,OOO is only
enough to use in scratching over the sur
face and leaving little to show for it.
Men of moderate means having some
money to invest, and appreciating the
enormous advantages which would accrue
to the entire Pacific coast from the build
ing of the canal, would subscribe if they
could find themselves in company with
men whose united subscriptions would
make up the squarter part of 500, 900, and
especially if they were assured that the
first payment would be contingent upon
the whole amount being subscribed. If a
man wants to build a house with 5000 he
does not only borrow enough to lay the
foundations. The bank or the individual
lender looks at his plans, and if satisfied
with the security lends him money enough
to build his house outright, and that is
much the way, we think, that people will
feel toward the Nicaragua canal.

SOME Of the Kentucky counties instructed
for Watterson for president. If democrats
were on the hunt for an honest, brainy man
they would find none who would fill the
bill better than Watterson. Watterson this
year, however, would be at disadvantage.

party is hunting the nest with fne-tooth
