plicable to the parents of young girls
and boys. who are more to blame for
the wrecked lives, the wrong doings and
large share of the suffering in the
world than their children are.
The real scnool for crime is the street.
and the teachers in the form OF evil
associates are ever ready and willing to
Give to the Younger and waywardly in
clined the benefit of their ripper knowl-
edge of things they should not know.
Too many parents rear their children
on the theory that if they clothe ana
food them their duty is done, and that
if the children prefer the streets at night
10 their own homes, they should be al
lowed to inhabit them. The increase OF
crime from year TO year indicates that
with each successive generation the par
ents exercise less authority over their
children. and care less for their welfare
other than physical. As a result the
children of large percentage OF par
ents are growing up more wiiful, more
prccocious and more inclined to follow
the broad and easy paths of life IN TINS
generation than in any that has preced'
ed it. To err is human, and to err Is
hut to follow the natural incinations of
humanity.
In reference to the case mentioned,
neither the prosecuting witness nor the
defendant would ever have been placed
in the trying positions they occupied If
they had spent their unemployed time
in their homes during the last two or
three years; certainly neither is so old
that this would have been too much to
EXPECT. The Herald does not aim to
censure these parents i'll particular, but
is it not reasonable to suppose that in
anv similar case the evils that result
from the ignorance and willfulness of
children might have been lessened if not
avoided entirely by the watchcare and
oversight of the parents? How many
men nave said from the scaffold where
their Improbable lives were ended that
their fate came about through a failure
on the part of their parents to control
and guide them while they were young?
How many women who are leading lives
of abandonment and despair might say
the same thing? A very large percent
age, beyond doubt.
The neglected child does not grow in
to a good and useful man or woman any
more than the bent twig grows into
straight and symmetrical tree. Parents
whose children are going and coming at
will, with companions of their own
choosing, unrestrained and unguided
nave no one but themselves to blame
for the failures that can but be ex-
pected. The children of today are the
hope and dependence of the future, and
it is a duty that parents owe to the
world to their children and to them
selves to see that they are guided, coun-
selled and properly reared.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE CITY
A PUBLIC TRIAL.

Good actors and good architects draw
good houses; but, as an attraction, they
are not to be compared with salaclous
criminal trial. As proof of this state
ment note, not the crowded but stuffed
condition of the county court house dur
ing the progress of the Boyd trial;
damned full by curious humanity eager
ly drinking in the history of boys
depravity and a girls shame; craning
their necks to lose not single disgust
ing detail; listening with avidity to eacn
horrible disclosure and apparently rel
ishing the whole filthy story. The ac-
cused is entitled to a speedy public
trial by an impartial jury"-but it GER
tainly is not the purpose OF the provls-
ion that all persons, in all eases, shall
be permitted to attend criminal trials,
particularly when from the nature Of
the charge, their motives must be low
character, and where due regard for
public morals and decency requires that
spectators be excluded from hearing the
evidences of human depravity which tine
trial must bring to light.
A public trial. is guaranteed to the
accused in order that the public may
see that he is fairly dealt with and not
unjustly condemned; and is not violated
if those drawn thitner by prurient
curiosity are excluded. Any judge on
the bench, who frees his court room
from that class of spectators is making
an order in behalf of the better morals
of the community, is violating no consti-
tutional requirement and is doing for
Others what they should do for them
selves without compulsion, making them
preserve their own self-respect and de-
cency.

a circular has been distributed among
the members of the house of representa-
tives urging the expulsion of Congress
man Helm of Alabama. He is accused
of having alluded in a speech delivered
at Tuskogee to President Roosevelt's
entertainment of Booker Washington at
the White House, in the following lam
guage; There they sat, Roosevelt and
Washington, and if some Czolgoz or one
of his kind had thrown a bomb under
the table no great harm would have been
done the country" And he is further
charged with having said in the same
speech wnen referring to the lynching
of negroes at Statesville, Ca, that it
was "the sending off of few more re-
publicans singing Nearer, Ny God to
Thee" The circular charges that the
first remark was calculated to incite at
tempts on the life of the president, and
that the second was brutal indorse-
ment of the assassination of Mckinley.
Helm claims that these remarks were
intended to be taken as a joke, but his
ideas of humor show clearly that he is
lacking in ordinary common sense.

THE BEST DAY OF ALL.

If all the holidays observed through
out the world were taken away but one.
and that remaining one were chosen for
its beneficial influence upon mankind,
Christmas day would be the best to
choose. Men and women who are not
disciples of Christ admit this to be true;
even non-believers, atheists, of the bet
ter class do not hesitate to say that no
other day has so real and beneficial an
influence on the minds of the people of
the world. Yielding with childish tears
and stubborn little heartaches to the
happy belief in Santa Claus. we accept
with gratitude and Joy the broader, bet
ter belief in the Christ. The coming and
wearing away of the centuries nave not
detracted from the glad JOY of Christ
mas time-they have added to it, and
all because the inspiration, the Savior of
mankind exists in the world Just as
much as He did before the day became
sacred to His worshippers. His infu-
ence is felt and enjoyed today just as
it was eighteen hundred years ago when
He went about among men doing good
and wnen His plying tears fell upon the
upturned faces of the children of Cali.
lee.
Whatever may be said in prejudice OIL
unbelief, investigating minds agree that
the nations whose people live nearest
the ideal Christian life are those whose
moral standards are the highest and
whose civilization is the most advanced
The further away people gets from
the teachings of the Christian religion
the lower their ideals. In the history OF
the world there never has been a force
like it, so strong or so abiding. Hence
the sincerity with which we wish each
other Joy and happiness on this day
What better blessing can we ask than
a Merry Christmas?"

the season to its readers, its advertisers
and friends, and wishes all a Merry

SPECIAL SCHOOL MEETING.

The Board of Directors of this school
district have called a meeting of the
voters of the district at the Central
School House on Friday evening at 7:30
o'clock p. m, for the purpose of ascer-
tanning whether or not the taxpayers
wish the Board to provide additional
school buildings for the pupils of our
common schools, and if so the style of
the building to be erected and the cost
the district is willing to incur for such
object.
That the call is timely one and the
object worthy is apparent to anyone
acquainted with the crowded state of al
most every school room; and the propo-
sition to erect the new building on the
Natchez lots is also wise, when one
stops to reflect. that after this year
nearly all of the Lincoln building will
have to be used exclusively for nigh
school purposes, thus forcing the school
board to procure other school rooms in
that vicinity for grade pupils.
As the building is to be in one of the
most thickly settled parts of the city
it should be of a permanent character,
and some attention should be paid, in
the erection, to the appearance; that is
convenience should not be sacrificed to
looks. but the structure should be made
attractive in form.
In view of the rapid increase of pop
ulation, it will not be long before the
district will have to erect school build
ings on the Capitol Hill and Leaning
additions, and it will be wise step if
the board are empowered to secure build
ing sites in these localities before the
price of lots become pronibitive.
The school proposition, in city in
creasng. growing as fast as this. is very
serious problem. The present board
are careful. economic and at the same
time far-s seeing officials, and it behooves
the citizens and taxpayers to give them
every possible assistance in carrying on
their good work. The meeting on Fri
day evening should he well attended,
the statement and the plans of the
board listened to and examined: and
then ratified by the necessary resolu-
ton empowering them to act.

1t is learned that the people living in
the vicinity of Prosser will go into hop
raising quite extensively next year
There is no reason, so far as the best
informed know or believe, why the low
err county should not add several nun
bred thousand dollars year to its grow
ing receipts. Those who go into the
business next year for the first time
need not fear too low price for their
initial crop, if present indications are
any criterion.

The presses in The Herald office have
been kept busy the past ten days turn
ing out calendars for 1905 for the bust
ness men of North Yakima and other
places in the county. 1t may be sur
prise to many to learn that as good
calendars as can be had anywhere in
the United States have been turned out
of this place and we believe We're L
more generally known that the work
and prices compare very favorably with

is now sent away would be left at home.

mind another season. See samples in

There ought to be any number of good

Yet, why all the abuse that is being

who IS between six and seven
years old, was SO unfortunate as TO
slip and fall. at the city school. on
Wednesday morning, breaking his
right leg.

to turn around quickly when it is
supposed he twisted his leg and
fell. breaking it above the knee.

Garrett reduced the fracture and
the lad is doing nicely.

down.

We are glad to note that the ladies
of this city have formed Civic
League for the promotion of city

that has long been needed. There
certainly can be no reason for the
trash and garbage of stores and
dwellings being swept into the
streets to be blown and scattered
about by the first stiff wind that
BLOWS.
We thought. when we were given
brick streets. that the idea was to
make it easy for them to be kept
sclean. But. if anything, there is
as much, if not more, dust and
trash thrown into business houses
by winds now than was the case
when we had only macadamized
streets. -s- e1ha
sThese ladies are asking the gen.
tlemen of the city to unite with the
League and lend their moral in
fluence. while they (the LADIES' are
willing to do all the disagreeable
work of the organization.
We hope that they may meet with
every encouragement in their labors
for sanitation and healthfulness,
and that such regulations may he
devised and enforced as will bring
about these much TO be desired
ends.
