AN ALPINE CLUB.

Probably no state in the Union offers
more attractions to an Alpine clue
than Utah; but there is no such club
in the state. During the summer the
mountains are filed with people from
this and other cities and it would be
an easy matter to form an Alpine club.
The ascent of the peaks around the
CottonwoOds is a task worthy of old
and experienced mountain climbers
When these are conquered there is
TImpanogas peak in UGah county, be-
hind which lies a glacier. that is one
of the grandest mountains TO be found
anywhere. In Juab county is Mount
Nebo and beyond that is the Beaver
Badly, all of which are easily acces-
sible, railroads running by them all ex-
cept Badly, and that is not so very far
off from. railroad. To the north there
are plenty of fine peaks. such as those
around Ogden and Brigham City. Then
if the members of the Alpine club de-
sire something more ambitious they
can try the peaks up around the head
waters of the Weber and Bear rivers.
and from there they can go into the
Uintahs, where win be found peaks as
grand and of the altitude of Mount
Blanc, the Jung Frau and the Matter

horn. Our own state presents field
for the mountain climber equal to the
best.
There is nothing finer than mountain
climbing. 1t is hard it is true, and there
is some danger attendant upon it. but
these are only stimulants. Who ever
stood upon the top of great mountain
and surveyed the country round but
experienced nobler feelings and had
higher. holier thoughts than before?
The groves may nave been Gods first
temples, but the mountain peaks are
the pinnacles of those temples. No
one has ever known nature IL its
grandeur and impressiveness who has
not scaled the mountain top If our
own people do not take advantage OF
the opportunities that nature has Of
fered them, they need not expect others
to come TO take advantage of them.
An Alpine club should be formed.

SALT LAKE CITY CHOSEN.

The Gold Mining congress at Denver
selected this city as the place in which
10 hold the next meeting. This is a
matter of congratulation to the people
of Utah and great triumph for her
delegates. They deserve and have the
thanks Of the people.
The congress changed its name TO the
international Mining congress. and il
did wisely. In future it will consider
the mining industry in its entirety and
not merely a single section of it.
though the congress at Denver was
broad and liberal in all respects.
There is much work for the congress
10 do. Aside from consideration of the
mining industry from the practical and
scientific point there is work for the
congress in the need of a complete
revision of the federal mining laws.
which have become 10 a greater or less
degree obsolete. There is also need of
greater harmony among the mining
laws Of the various states. And there
IS no way in which all this can be so
well and readily accomplished as
through the intelligent action of public
opinion in the mining states as ex-
pressed through the medium of a
mining congress. 1t viii concentrate
public opinion and give it a force that
nothing else can.
Nothing gives greater promise of
promoting the mining interests of the
west than these same congresses. And
salt Lake City is extremely fortunate
in having been chosen as the place for
holding the first International Mining
congress.

DEATH OF MRS. H. II. WELLS.

The sympathy of the people of the
state will go out to Governor H NJ
Wells in his great bereavement In
the death of Mrs. Wells he loses a true
and loving COMPANION. She was
noble woman. beautiful in person and
in soul, and all who knew her loved
and respected her. She was of a most
cheerful and happy disposition and
carried sunshine wherever she went.
In the hour of death when naught but
grief and sorrow hover around, words
are powerless to carry solace to those
who mourn and many of them seem al
most moclzery. Governor Wells has
the sympathy of the people as do

CLASSIFICATION IN SCHOOLS.

At Thursdays session of the Nation
al Educational association in Milwau
kee. United States Commissioner of Ed
ucation Harris read a very interesting
and timely paper on grading and clas-
sifcation. He maintained that the chief
care in the mana cement of a system of
city schools is to grade or classify the
pupils in such manner that the in
terests of some are not sacrificed for
those of others. He said that when
pupils of slower temperament are
strained to keep pace with quicker,
brighter ones they become discouraged
and demoralized. He advocated reclas-
sifcation every two or three months.
What Commissioner Harris advo-
Gated is in line with the best thought
on school management and is coming
TO be more and more advocated. The
same subject was treated exhaustively
in the June number of the Atlantic
Monthly and it was there shown how
the Plan now advocated by DR.. Har-
ris can be made TO work successfully
1t is almost sure to be adopted by the
schools of the country, especially those
that are progressive and seeking to
improve all the time.
In the common school system of the
country it is an impossibillty TO give
that attention TO each Individual pupil
that is bestowed on him in some
schools, because the classes are too
large and it is impossible to give such
personal instruction to each pupil as
Will develop ali his powers to the great
est degree. But the system of keeping
all the pupils of a grade in it through
OUT the year without classification is
bad 1t IS had for those pupils who
can do the best work and with the
greatest ease, and it is equally bad for
those who can not do such good work
and who find If difficult to do the pass
work; it is unsatisfactory in every re-
spect. With fifty or sixty pupils in a
room there will of necessity be a great
difference as to capacity, although each
one is doing the same work and none
so poorly as TO be put in a lower grade.
In the past there has been too much
of the theory and practice that the pu-
pill should be made TO fit the school
system rather than the system to fit
the pupil. and the result has been far
from satisfactory. A school system
must be judged by its results and not
by the elegance of its school build
ing and the perfection of its catalogue.
The teaching is everything: all else is
comparatively nothing. All over the
country the fact is recognized the
great outlay for education, and the
sacrifices that it has entailed. has not
produced those results which it was
fondly anticipated would follow. and it
is felt that perhaps show has been al
lowed to take the place of substance. /
All this augurs well for the betterment |
of the schools.

The Cincinnati Enquirer says that
Howard university, an institution for
colored students at Washington. has
conferred the degree of LII. D. on John
Nanamaker; that both the university
and Mr.. Wanamaker should be
ashamed of this performance the one
for comforting a degree on a man who
is not entitled 10 it by scholarship or
achievement, and the other for accept
ing However. Mr.. Wanamaker might
give this extremely bad habit a back
set by refusing the degree. Something
pertaining to a bargain counter would
be better suited to John.
The comforting of the degree of doctor
of laws has become such a common
practice that the degree is held cheap,
as it should be. The practice has been
almost epidemic this year and il is now
