TACOMA SCHOOLS
UP TO STANDARD

Professor Yoder OF the University of
Washington was in the city yesterday,
making an examination of the Tacoma
high school in every department, to as
certain whether the four-year course given
by the high school comes up to the stan
dard which schools of the four-year course
should sustain. He went away very well
satisfied with what he saw
Instructors from the State university
are visiting the different accredited schools
throughout the state to see whether the
courses are comprehensive enough to en-
title the graduates of such schools to
enter the university.
The preparatory course at the State
university has been discontinued, which IS
really good thing for that institution
as the work done did not amount to near
" as much as the work done by the high
schools in either Tacoma or Seattle al
though the same amount of credit was
allowed in each case.
"The L. of w. is coming to the front
rapidly and has some very strong in
structors," said a leading educator this
morning at bids fair to be an honor
and a credit to the people of Washington
in a few years"

Nearly everyone who has catarrh knows

Democratic convention held in Paris; res

Mr.. Bowen was sheriff of this county for
four years, and made most efficient and
popular officer, one of the best the county
ever had. He was captain in the Con-
federate army, and has at all times been a
straight and active party man. He has a
large following of personal friends and if
elected will make the county a faithful
officer. His deputy, Jas. A. Gibson, has
acted as deputy sheriff and as deputy
jailer, is formerly Oft Flat Rock pre-
cinct, and has large following, and fully
qualified to fill the place of deputy jailer.

An Important Decision.

In an opinion delivered by Judge Payn-
ter, the whole court sitting, the Court of
Appeals. in affirming the decision of the
Jefferson Circuit Court in the case of
Auditors Agent Frank Lucas against the
Bank of Commerce for taxes on deposit
in the institution, holds that banks are not
required to pay taxes on their deposits.
and that the taxes should be paid by the
depositors. AS a result of this agreed
case about three hundred similar suits
against banks in the State will be dis
missed.
This decision of the Court of Appeals is
doubtless precisely what most of the
members of the legal profession expected.
AS, however, there appeared to be some
difference of opinion on this point, it is
we'll that the question has been definitely
settled. The decision will put an end
to a great deal of litigation, and prevent
the institution of a great many other suits
that would have followed different ruling
as to the law.
