RESPONSIBILITY.

The Tribune this morning quotes
sentence from a communication which
appeared in the News" Of last Friday
over the signature of Mr.. Charles
Ellis, and censures this paper on ac-
count of a statement made by that
writer, which was n severe reflection on
some of the early non-Mormon resi-
dents of Utah. 1t would be a sufficient
answer 10 the Tribune to say that
when a correspondent of n newspaper
makes a statement over his full and
true name, the newspaper publishing his
communication cannot be held in any
degree responsible for the sentiments
expressed. or statements Of fact made
by such correspondent. Such is the law
of journalistic ethics.
But the News" viii go farther than
this. and will state that it does not
now and never did in the past, even
when feeling ran the highest in the
distracted Territory of Utah. regard
the early non Mormon settlers in the
light in which the Tribune's construc-
ton of Mr.. Ellls's remark makes them
appear, n construction, by the way.
which we regard as too sweeping. An
other thing: The News" not infre-
quently secs sentences in the columns
of the Tribune which are decidedly UNI
pleasant reminders of old times, and
in many such instances the law of
journalistic responsibility would not
shield the paper. But we have OBJ
served an apparent purpose on its part,
especially of late, to work for the
prevalence of better conditions in the
State, and particularly in its capital
city. and have withheld criticism.
Lastly, the News" reciprocates the
sentiment of the Tribune that it is bet
ter to let the offensive skeletons Of the
dead past remain buried.

The state board of equalization
which began its sessions on Friday.
will probably be the busiest BODY on
the coast. From all sections of the
arise protests against the alleged ex-
'cessive assessments of this wear. and
In some cases the courts have been in
vaded to secure a reduction. The
bungling work of the legislature in
the revenue bill, especially the clause
exempting from taxation $500 worth
OF personal property, has caused much
confusion. In many instances prop
erty was listed considerably higher
than it ought to be, in view of the ex.
emption, and after that clause was de-
clared unconstitutional there were
multitudinous protests and efforts to
secure notifications. Altogether it is
probable that the board will have
some interesting and sensational sess-
.aops, Ledger.

Turner Paid for His ssWhistle."

1t is now conceded that Colonel
Turner, brother of Senator "LeRoy"
Turner, owns controlling interest in
the Seattle P.-I.; but it is very broadly
limited that the senator is the real
owner, the purchase money coming
from the LeRoi mine. Circumstan-
ces seem to justify this conclusion.
The P.-I., however, is to continue re-
publican in politics, which means that
it is to gouge the liver out OF the 'fu-
sionists" who elected Turner to the U.
5. Senate. If all these statements and
surmises are correct, there is nothing
very inconsistent in the matter; for if
public opinion is correct, Turner paid
for all he got, and consequently owes
nothing to the fellows who elected
him. Besides, such action would be
entirely consistent with his nature, in
any event. He is the personifcation
OF lngratltude and selfishness, and if
the pops do not see the day when Tur-
ner will knife them, it will be because
1t is not for his personal interest to do
so, By the way, will the pops please
tell us what Turner has done for their
interests or for the interests of this
state, since he has been in the Senate?

IT is said, according to the Trade
Register, that there are over 1000 cars
now available in the grain belt of this
state for moving the crop to tidewater
The Northern Pacific has 1900 box
cars and 0. R. & N. has 1900. of
which 400 are between Umatilla and
Spokane. The Great Northern is also
prepared with cars and equipped for
all demands. In the Walla Walla
and Horse Heaven and certain sect
ions of the Big Bend harvesting is
early completed, while in the Palouse
region it is much later. No rain that
has yet fallen will damage materially
the grain crop and even if consider
able precipitation should follow. the
farmers are prepared to carefully har-
vest the wheat with view of protect
ing it from the rain.

Our Governor Has Been Confdenccd.

The Tacoma Sun, in which Senator
George Turner is interested to the tune
OF $500 at least, is printing some in7
teresting ante-election letters written
by the fusion executive shortly after
his election. Some of these commu-
nications are not very complimentary
to the men who worked for his elect
ION, says the Tacoma Ledger, bnt, as
the Sun says the offenders now hold
Office and must take the medicine
without audible protest. In its issue
of yesterday the Sun editorially says:
We have had number of inquiries
from gentlemen, prominent in the
peoples party movement, as\ 'ng if
his excellency had anything to say
about them in his letters to us. In
answer will say that we cannot call to
mind all who are mentioned, suffice is
it to say that the old man is, or was,
very verbose and all persons who hap
pened to come into his mind. at
the time of writing were mentioned III
his letters. Some of the parties now
hold Office, and while they curse it
must be under their breath.

lowing under the caption

My Dear Judge: Your kind favor Of

for the opinion and Texas references.

Allen is in close quarters financially.
The boys--his sons-are strong repub-
licans and do not like to "carry" him
and rather fancy are urging him to
come out On an independent" course.
Mind you, l only surmise this from
what I see. I do not know it. The
last populist shows its teeth. All the
world admires fighter, and Winsor-
the old man, for l assure you he is
back of all this-is a good fighter
Allen will not stand against him. So
you see the Seattle situation is more
complicated than ever, for the w. c..
popu!ist is backed mainly by Way and
the ''single takers" with a low down
gang of saloon bummers and Catholic
A. P. A. shouters really Irish demo-
Gratis. The better class of populists,
including Maple, county treasurer,
and large numbers of the old ''stand-
bys," say they are disguised with the
whole situation. The amount of it is,
city politics appear to be able to dis
courage any reform party.

goods and, of course, between us. AS
ever, yours truly JOHN R. ROGERS.

the year 1896 shows total enroll

An eastern journal speaks OF "the
state of Washington not attracting
much attention" The fact is that
Washington not only has great crops
OF all kinds, but she is at the golden
gateway, and will get round prices for
everything. Not state in the union
has more promising outlook than
this comparatively new state OF Wash
ington. She has the climate, the soil,
the minerals, the timber, and the live
energetic people to make the most of
everything. The great trade of the
far west is centering in Oregon and

Beautiful Service Held Every Year on the
Anniversary OF His Death.
Every year on the 18th of December
Queen Victoria holds solemn service
to commemorate the deaths of the
prince consort and of Princess Alice
of Hesse. Gu this occasion the beauti-
full memorial chapel is open to the
court and to certain of the queens
tenants and tradespeople, but under no
pretext are the public admitted to
either the plantation at Frogmore,
which surrounds the mausoleum, or to
the building itself. The service held
this year followed the usual form laid
down many years ago by the queen
and the music, most exquisitely rem
dered by the choir of ST. Georges
chapel, had also been chosen by her
majesty.
As each year goes by a greater inter-
est attaches to the vacant space above
the tomb of the prince consort, for on
the now empty slab the carved effigy
of the queen will one day lie. When
her majesty first announced her inten-
ton of being buried by her husbands
side, considerable difficulties were
raised, and it was urged that an Eng
lish queen could only be buried among
her crowned predecessors at Westmin-
ster, or Windsor. But no arguments
have ever turned her majesty from her
purpose, and in time the beautiful in
closure at Frogmore will be her ac-
cepted royal cemetery. The mausoleum
of the duchess of Kent is but a stones
throw from that of the prince consort.
Outwardly, says writer in st. Paul's,
it is the more pleasing of the two, and
the bridge across a placid lake, by
which the mausoleum is approached,
and some fine weeping willows, lend
it most picturesque and peaceful air.
The anniversary of the prince con-
sorts death is passed by the queen in
absolute retirement. After the service
at the mausoleum her majesty retires
to her own apartments, where, if so
disposed, she receives few members
of her family. There is no music in the
castle on that day, and the princesses
and ladies Of the household are ex-
pected to appear in black gowns, or in
grey with black bonnets and gloves.

Teachers Reading Circle.

At a meeting of the state Board of
Education held at Ellensburg, April
"a, 1897, in conjunction with the
County superintendent, then in sess-
ion at the same. PLACES VT was decided
to reorganize and enlarge the work OF
the teachers reading circle, and to
that end chose an executive board OF
which B. w. Brintnall of Olympia is
Secretary and state Manager, and ar
rangemenls for carrying on the work.

that credit applied On common school
and state certificate. In three or four
years reading the several branches re-
quired for u second class certificate
and that with the additional examina-
ton in the other branches for a state
certificate.
The county superintendent have
been requested to organize circles
where practicable, but where one lives
too far away from circle to make it
convenient to attend, is also mem
Der though not an attendant at the
circle meetings. Every member must
take the annual examination in order
to receive credits.
The books will be distributed, when
ever possible, through the county su-
perintendents to save expense, but
those who do not find it convenient to
de so may get them from the state
manager.
The Northwest Journal of Educa-
ton is the official organ of the state
circle and will contain the outlines,
synopsis, announcements, etc. of the
work.
The books for 1897-9S Circle year
beginning Oct. 18TH are (History of
Education,) Quick's Educational Re-
formers, General History,) Quick's
Europe in the nineteenth century,
and Literature,) Matthew's American
Literature. Price is three dollars.
They will be delivered at the Co. SUI
perintendent's Office Gncluding the N.
w. Journal of Education and mem
bership fee OF % cents for $3.50 when
cash accompanies the order. A Cir
cular will be sent to each teacher and
to any one desiring it.
Teachers, prospective teachers, and
others interested in education are in
vlted to cooperate to make this circle
profitable and successful one.
