ON Co-EDUoATloN.

The announcement is now made that
with the beginning Of the new year
the sexes are to be segregated IN the
University Of Chicago In each OF the
Junior college courses, for which thirty
or more students register the class
viii be divided on the basis Of sex And
eventually the segregated classes VIII
be conducted In different buildings. This
decision looks very much Ike a retreat
on the part Of the co-educationallsts,
and yet that system seems to have pub
Ne endorsement go Overwhelmingly
that to depart from It requires great
courage, and can be justified only on
the supposition that It has been tried
and failed 70 give the best results.
According to Dr. Butler the presI-
dent Of Columbia University co-educa-
ton ls a question settled by the people
beyond further controversy, In sup
port OF this statement he points to the
school statistics Of the country, There
are according TO him, in this country
l5.OOO00O children In the elementary
schools, all being co-educated, OF the
public secondary schools, in 1878, 81
were for boys only, 20 for girls only
and more than 800 were cO-educatlon-
al. OF the private secondary schools,
1925 were co-educational, 321 were for
boys only, and bSS were for girls only.
DR.. Butlet says these latter figures
mean that In the East and South many
Of the well-to-do prefer separate edu-
cation during the secondary school per-
iod, chiefly for social reasons. OF the
colleges IN 1898, 70 per cent--or, omit
ting the Roman Catholic institutions,
so per cont-wcre co-educational From
lS9O-9S the number of men IN co-edu-
cational colleges increased 10 per cent
while IN separate colleges for men the
number increased only 50 per cent
These figures speak for themselves.
And yet II would hardly be safe TO con-
clude from them that the system has
been demonstrated to be the best, There
are fads and fashions in educational
matters as in everything else. and
fashions always change The Chicago
experiment viii be watched with much
interest. Possibly a rule that may be
all right In elementary schools is not
necessarily applicable TO the higher in
stltutes Of learning, where the super
structure Of education is to be built,
aud the finishing touches given.

The protest OF the Ministerial assocl-
alton against the election Of Hon. Reed
smoot as United States senator, VIII be
found IN fun In this paper this evening.
We have no time or space now for ex.
tended comment It Is evidently de-
signed as II bluff to the Utah Legis-
lature, to prevent the genteman's cleo
ton. We think the members elect have
been too long in this meek Of the
woods to be scared by the hootlug Of
owls. The alleged reasons why the
gentleman objected to should not be
admitted to the Senate, are simply silly.
and do not embOdy one legal obstacle
to his taking the seat if he should be
elected. It does not appear to US
that the aversion Of this little clique of
preachers to the Mormon candl-
date, forms any startling reason why
he should not be elected. What has
their opinion on the matter to do with
II anyhow?

Tue OLD "CRY" REVIVED,

The Salt Lake Tribune, after being
thoroughly exposed in It's classification
of the position and language Of the
Deseret News on the school board
question, changes It's tactics and at
tacks the Mormon Church, charging
that It is making q Church fight for
the recollection of member Of the
Board Of Education, A venomous
Tribune editorial on this point closes
as follows:
''The pity and the wrong of It Is
that there should be n distinctlvely
Church candidate for membership In
the Board OF Education: but as that Is
the Church programme II must be
beaten If we are to have in reality any
public school system worthy OF the
name"
'The pity and the wrong Of IT. Is,
that the intimation In that paragraph
is grossly untrue. The Church has
named no candidate. The Church has
no programme" as TO the election. The
Church has not uttered a syllable to
indicate any choice OF individuals or
an Individual to serve ON the school
board.
It Is very clear to all onlookers that
the very opposite Is the case. The
Tribune has set itself to oppose a
Mormon" member OF the board, sim
ply because he is a Mormon" With
Its latest ayowals IL Is easy TO under
stand the drift Of all its mendacious
assaults on the Deseret News, per-
yertlng our intentions, dstorting our
utterances, and inventing sentences
which we never printed and quoting
them as ours.
All that the Deseret News has urged
as to the school election has been, that
political and religious influences shall
be kept entirely out OF the proceed
ings, and that no candidate shall be
chosen or rejected on either Of those
grounds. We now repeat our advice,
aud add the further exhortation that
"fE 'VANAc ehih Vbtf iiA iAAeroNf am ~
tend the conventions In the respective
municipal wards or precincts. and see
that the wishes OF the people, and not
the dictates and falsehoods Of few
conspirators and bigots, shall prevail
In this election.
Notices as TO the times and places
for the primaries mass meetings, or
conventions-whateyer they may be
called-will be found in another part
OF this issue of the News" and we
urge upon all citizens who are inter-
ested In the cause OF education, to
make 1t a point to attend them and
show, by choosing the best men avail
able as candidates, that they are not to
be Influenced by the false and stale
and miserable cry Of Church innu-
ence."

The Secretary Of the Interior In his
annual report says that the ayowed
policy of the government TO preserve
the public domain for homes for
actual settlers has no more implaca-
bic and relentless foe than the class
that seeks TO occupy the lands for
grazing purposes by maintaining I'M
lawful fences thereon They are enc
mics to everybody, and when found
should be punished. Those who are
guilty Of this olfense are generally the
great cattle companies. but not al
ways, and through sheer arrogance
and contempt Of law drive out the
would-be settler. Utah has suffered
less In this respect than some Of her
neighbors and ls to be congratulated.
The public domain should be reserved
for the public. which means the peo-
pie.

THE COUNCIL AND THE BOARD

The City Council VIII probably take
some action this evening on the dis
pute with the majority Of the Board
OF Public Works as to the appointment
Of clerk. 1t viii be remembered that
the board made new appointment,
without attempting TO obtain the con-
curronce of the Council.
The City Attorney, It appears, has
given his legal opinion that the board
has that power irrespective Of the City
Council. That is enough Of itself to
cast doubt on the proposition, in the
minds OF people who have noted the
numerous legal blunders Of that official.
But let us look into the facts Of the
case as Of record:
On March "a, 1900, the Board Of Pub
lie Works applied TO the city Council
for a clerk and inspector, showing that,
at a salary Of SIS per month, money
would be saved to the city, as the in
spector would perform duties that
would render unnecessary the employ
ment OF special inspectors for work
done under the direction Of the board.
The actual daily clerical work was
then small and was previously per-
formed by the deputy recorder,
on April 10. 1900, the Council granted
the application, and a clerk and in
spector was appointed during the
pleasure OF the City Council" on May
S, 1900. resolution was introduced by
Councilman Cottrell ordering the EN-.
rSoyment OF John NJ. Whitaker as
clerk and Inspector, to have the over
sight Of all works done under the d.
rection OF the board. at an increased
salary as his work OF inspection was
thus extended considerably. It was
passed unanimously and was duly APP
proved.
Under the city ordinance Of 1892 1t
was provided, that all appointments OF
Inspector must be approved by the City
Council. Now, observe, there Is no
office OF clerk Of the Board Of Public
Works separate and apart from that Of
Inspector In the attempted new APP
poiniment by the board, the person
chosen is named as clerk Of the board
The appointment is void for the reasons
herein set forth. II the board wants to
make a change, # must nominate a
clerk and Inspector, and submit the
name Of the appointee 70 the city
Council for approval. That is the gist
OF the whole matter. and Il Is very sim
pie and easy to understand.
There Is no need for any body, or or

We indulge the hope that the commits

and that il will report such regulations
as will be far and just to the miners,
and avoid all distinction between union

the safety Of the republic Both opera

fair and Just compromise win finally be
adopted which will give peace to the

'Brookshire." and lies between Pattie
and Ellis avenues on the east and west
and Kellogg and Hunter streets on the

Mr.. Charles Hunter. The addition is to
include thirty-eight lots of from fifty
feet to 200 feet fronts and 40 feet deep.
The plat of ground has a beautiful COW
ering of blue grass. which has hereto
fore furnished a productive pasture for
cattle. Chisholm creek runs through it
and nearly bisects It with its serpentine
curves over by the Kellogg school
The gentlemen who have made this ad-

they feel that Wichita is not large
