of German speaking people in this
part of the country is the especial
reason why German should be pre-
ferred here.
Too much praise cannot be given
the Germans for what their advanced
methods have accomplished in re-
forming, elevating, and perfecting
the modes of instruction in the
schools of our land. To those who
oppose German instruction in our
public schools let me say that the
statement that the cost is great is
without foundation; the belief that
the study of German retards the
progress of the children in English
has been completely overturned by
the statistics: the statement that
this is America and. therefore. ought
TO teach the English language only,
IS not worthy of notice: the
assertion that the study of German
tends to Germanize our pupils and
makes them less loyal to our country.
is not borne out by the facts. Be-
sides, your children are not com
PEELED to study German, as it is an
optional branch. have never heard
the first valid reason offered against
this study, and | believe that every
intelligent man who will thoroughly
investigate the subject, free from all
prejudice, must come to the same
conclusion as have, viz: That the
study of two languages is for the best
interests of the pupils. Besides, it
would be better for the interests of
this great commercial country of ours
if much more attention was paid in
her schools and colleges to learning
the great living language of modern
civilization. 1t is a lame ntable fact.
indeed, that few Anglo-Americans
can be found who can speak any
other tongue than the English, while
there are thousands of Germans of
kindred birth in cur midst who are
able to converse well in at least three
different languages, and this is to be
attributed mainly to the difference in
the educational policies in the two
countries, and may the time come
when our people may be equally wise
and far-seeing in their educational
policy"
Now, Mr.. Peaslee was prejudiced
against German instruction. as many
of our educators and especially ed
itors of papers appear to be, and ]
submit above extracts from his lee
ture to the intelligent, common-sense,
thinking, practical American business
men, and they can't help but agree
with such authorities as quoted
above and demand of our present
Board of Education not to lower the
standard of our public school system,
which can at the present compare
favorably with the best in the land.
Chicago is a cosmopolitan city; this
country has welcomed all nations to
its borders. Be tolerant, give chill
dren the best possible education, and
the results will be beneficial to our
future generation, DO away with
this very important branch Of our
education, and you take step back
ward instead of being progressive.

A CONTEMPORARY is responsible for
the statement that at recent pluck
ing at the Coronado ostrich farm one
bird yielded nearly 5000 feathers,
adding that when curled and dressed
these feathers will be worth sos.
There is something wrong some
where, for at 80 cents apiece. which
would certainly be low average If
the feathers possessed any merit at
all they would amount to ST, 800
One can hardly believe that even in
the first market, real ostrich feathers
are sold as low as . l-6 cents apiece.

This apportionment grants a gen.
eral increase over the amounts ex-
pended last year. The chairmen of
the committees interested are gener-
ally we'll satisfied with the arrange
ment. An attack on the allowance
for special studies was expected, but
the fact that teachers in these
branches are employed for the year
ending in June induced the opposi-
ton to withdraw its forces for the
present.
The apportionment grants the
School Management Committee nearly
$400, 900 more than was expended last
year. High schools are given an in
crease Of $4,000. The allowance for
drawing is $50 900, the same amount
given last year and 81, 906. 81 less than
actually expended in 1892. German
cost $3.50, $40. % last year and Sl55. 600
has been apportioned for that depart
ment this year Chairman Halle Of
the German Committee says there Is
an unexpended balance of $40, 600,
and rs he does not desire To extend
the system he declares himself salts

of the bonds, and alleging that
the ~trustees failed TO protect its

then filed a cross bill, alleging that the
mortgage was prior and paramount to the
judgment liens.

several judgments against the H.. II. S. IL

t-ics court Of Cascade county to recover
$14. 900 value of wool and sheep belonging

to a federal court OH motion Of the d defend
ant where the latter Is d. resident OF an
other state. Judge Knowles took the same
view and the case was Hemanded to the Cas-

The ZETETIC SOCIETY.
The Last Meeting of the Pres
ent Year.
Election Of Officers for the Next
Term-A Prosperous Or
ganlzation.

Friday evening was the occasion OF
she last meeting of the Zetetic society
for the present year. This society was
organized and has been maintained
during the past year by students of the
Territorial Normal school.
A full attendance last night witnessed
the closing scenes, while many visitors
were present to applaud those who par
ticipated. Officers were elected for the
ensuing term, beginning in October, al
though during the discussion of the
feasibility Of an election to take effect
was vigorously opposed by some OF
the members, who argued from the
standpoint OF casualty, urging that
death or matrimony might intervene to
disqualify the newly elected officers
from taking their seats in the fall 1T the
re-opening OF the next term. The ex-
igencies OF the occasion, however,
seemed to demand an organization to
begin with, as it was thought desirable
20 have the society in working order at
the commencement Of the next year,
besides 81 in silver coin remained in
the treasury. This surplus was placed
in the hands Of the new treasurer, with
instructions that it be placed in the
bank of Tempe to await the opening OF
the fall term.
After the election. which was quite
tedious owing to the number of candi-
dates for each Office and the regulations
Of the society requiring a majority to
elect, a program, both musical and
literary, was rendered, after which sd-
dresses of encouragements, good. bye or
regret were made by various mem bers.
At 10 80 the society adjourned.
Although most of the participants are
in the first half of their teens, parlia.
mentary rules and usages were closely
observed and degree OF efficiency was
shown that would compare very fsvora.
bly, with any society made up Of pupils
OF a similar age even in the older
states.
One noticeable fact was the total alb
sence Of embarrassment, everyone be-
aug able to address both the president
and audience without betraying any
signs OF fright.
The closing remarks OF the pupils
revealed the fact that they considered
the present old building entirely in
adequate. but they were hopeful that
the recent legislative appropriation
would enable them to hold the sessions
next year in she new building.
