Communicated.

Probably the most important body
connected with our city government
is our Board of Education. For it has
to do with the education of our youth,
than which there is no subject dearer
to the heart of the American people.
The citizens of Sank Centre are, and
always have been, intensely loyal to
our public schools. The greater share
of the taxes levied is for the support
of these schools; and there is no
demand made which is so cheerfully
and unhesitatingly met.
The membership of this board
should be composed of individuals of
broad views: they should be free from
bigotry, and utterly averse to that
miserable spirit of gossipry which is
so frequently the bane of our smaller
communities. Above all they should
realize that these positions of honor
and responsibility have been bestowed
upon them with the understanding
that they are to act wholly in the
capacity of public servants, and that
under no circumstances can it be
granted that these offices are to be
used to satisfy personal grudges.
The late action of the High School
Board in summarily dismissing Prof.
Holland is certainly open to criticism.
This gentlemen has been the Prin-
cipal of our schools for two years.
He came to us with the best of recon-
mendations. So far as the public is
aware his services in the main have
been satisfactory. There have never
been any charges preferred against
him; indeed the minutes of the
sessions of the Board do not show
that the question of incapacity upon
his part has ever been subject of
discussion. Now, suddenly, during
the temporary absence Of one of the
members, there is sprung and passed
by bare majority, resolution of
arbitrary dismissal.
This is an humiliation utterly un-
called for. There must be evidence
of gross ineficiancy as an educator
of which, hitherto, there has not been
even hint to entitle the Board to so
much as an apology for this action.
The members know we'll enough,
that in case for any reason, change
in the superintendency is desired, it
can be brought about in a manner in
volving no injustice upon the one
side, nor disgrace upon the other.
1t seems to me that there is no
getting around the fact that an at
tempt has been made to blast a
reputation, something which the past
history of Sank Centre does not war
rant, and an act of which she will not
be proud.
If there are reasons for this extra
ordinary procedure, they should be
made known. The people of our city
have ever placed implicit confidence
in the Board of Education, let that
Board now reciprocate by taking the
public into its confidence.

This story Is told Of Judge Hoar Of

profusely decorated with lilies. and
conspicuous among the beautiful white
flowers was one large rose. A lady
sitting next to the judge remarked
upon the peculiar selection Of that ono

Great Spirit, the same as the wise
men and seers of old used to. have
asked these intelligencies to tell me
about the cause of earthquakes and
tidal waves, and they explain it like
this:
"They say volcanoes are the safety
valves of the earth. That the rim of
the earth is gradually cooling. AS 1t
cools II contracts making the pres
sure on the hot lava in the interior
greater. At last something must give
way, this rim must crack open, or the
volcanoes must burst forth and emit
this compressed lava.
Sometimes 1t is relieved in one
way, sometimes in another. Should
the earth crack in mid-ocean, where
the crust is usually thinner, then the
waters of the ocean fill in and there
is a great explosion as the water
strikes this bed of hot lava, large
masses of the rim are thrown up and
islands appear. Sometimes they stay
on the surface of the ocean, sometimes
they fall back and are again covered
with water, but that upheaval so lifts
the water that a great wave is started
for the shore that carries death and
destruction in its way.
Many of the old safety valves in
the earth are now closing up; only a
few remain. The crust is becoming so
thick that the cooling process is more
slow"

Freewater, May 22.-The strawber-

several hundred crates are being
shipped out daily. the growers receiv-
ing from SO to $3.50 per crate. 1t is
now found that the crop will not be
as large as last year, but there Is an
average yield, and the berries are very
good. The Peacock Milling company
is shipping this year, the S. S. Shields
company and the Walla Walla Pro-
duce company are in the field as
heretofore. These berries are being
shipped in all directions. The recent
cool weather has kept them from
ripening as rapidly as usual.
Candidates are coming thick and
fast just before election, and they are
all good fellows.
That the electric line between
Walla Walla and this place will go
through soon is almost assured. Right
of way is continually being secured
along the route. and the promoters
are pushing the work as rapidly as
possible.

JUSTICE DEMANDED IN NAVY.
Claimed That Punishment Following
Courtn,artiaI Was Too Light.

Washington, May 22.-Naval offic-
ers are much impressed with the com.
ments made by Assistant Secretary
Newberry, as acting secretary of the
navy, on two recent courtmartial
cases, one that of Lieutenant Scofield,
who was held accountable for an ac-
cident on torpedo boat, and the
other that of Paymaster Lukesh,
charged with misconduct on the Ash
attic station. In both cases the courts
failed. according to Mr.. Newberry's
notion, to impose sufficient punish
ment, and the reprimand administer
ed to the officers composing the
courts. 1t is not without precedent,
of course, that courts are rebuked for
their findings, but it is somewhat un-
usual in the navy department to have
administered just the sort of criticism
passed by Mr.. Newberry on the naval
courts.
The officers of the service are spec-
ulating upon the direct effect of these
departmental comments. Some of
them seem to think that the rebuke
will tend TO influence naval court
martial action hereafter; others real
ize that naval or military court is
rarely impressed with departmental
comments no matter how adverse
they may be. Courtsmartial seldom,
IL ever, reverse their findings. and 1t
is the one opportunity which officers
have to maintain something like OBJ
stinacy in the face of higher author
ity.
At the same time, in at least one of
these cases described, there is gem
eral Endorsement of Mr.. Newberry's
criticism of the court, and those IA
miliar with the incident express sur
prise that the court failed to appreci-
ate the gravity of the offence alleged
Nothing in long time has interested
naval officers so much as Mr.. New
berry's action in these particular
cases.
