Churches.

What is q church? The honest SEX
ton tells: Il
'Tis a tall building, with tower and
bells.
That the churches in any commun-
,ty exercise a most potent influence
for good, is conceded by all except the
most rabid or blatant infidel whose
egotism and s~elf-conceit blind MS
mind to the ineStimable value Oh
Christianity. But to what extent are
the churches valuable in this commun-
ity? The Galilean teacher said OF
His disciples: "Ye are the light OF
the world.n .'Ye are the salt of the
earth" Hence, if all His disciples
| are the light of the world and the salt
| of the earth, the logical as well as
| the scriptural conclusion is that they
/ are the light of the community in
which they live.
These declarations, however. do
not preclude the possibility OF the
light going out being hid under a
bushel-or the salt losing its sadness.
Bbt certainly no reasonable or fair
minded person would accuse the
churches of being wholly composed OF
united bands of hypocrites. For IL
matters not to what extent sin, 10
its many forms, may prevail the ranks
of any church, you will find, within
its membership, conSecrated men and
women. And it should be borne IN
mind that it only requires few OF the
aforementioned class to become the
light Of the community.
There is not man in u TOWN.
however Indifferent to the claims o.
christianity, would want to rear bis
family here if there were no churches
or church influence, for he at once
recognizes them as the guardians o.
the morals Of the community. Wha'
would be the condition Of this com
munity at the end of the next ter
wears if from this time until then TIT
churches were closed? To what ex
tent would life and property be safe,
And yet, with all the organized
agencies Of the churches, the devil tot
frequently holds high carnival. VIVA
might we not expect IL wholly diPest-
ed of those good influences?
The high moral standing OF TIL
community is due to the fact that II
has beeAermeated by Christian in

radiated from the various church

Perhaps no class OF people meet
with so much or SO we're criticism as
teachers. Much Of this criticism is
unjust and exists solely because par
ents and others listen to unverified
reports and do nothing to acquaint
themselves with the real inner work
ings of the school room. Any person
experienced with children knows that
these reports, even when absolutely
truthful from their point OF view, can
not be relied upon. Again, any q
who has the training Of children, has
experienced the notifying that even
the best trained children sometimes
woefnlly lapse from their knowledge
of good manners and courtesy when
away from home and among other
children. Some mothers will not
tolerate any correction of their child
ren's manners by the teacher, taking
it as a direct insult to their home
training, when 1t is but the result OF
childish heedlessnesS or self-will. NO
greater injury can be done a teacher
than to condemn her at home IN the
presence Of pupils. There are many
they usually allude to teacher as
school-marm-who persist in believ-
ing and encouraging that q school
teacher is never tC be regarded with
other than suspicion.

The committee has been discussing
Statter's nomination for the assistant
secretaryship of the treasury depart
ment, and it is the concensus of opin-
ion that men of more business and
financial experience that Statter has
should be named for these places
While the Statter nomination may not
be defeated, there will be a careful in
quiry into his qualifications for this
place in the great financial depart
ment of the government
"The publication of the presidents
intention to appoint Statter was pre-
mature. 1t was agreed upon between
the president and Secretary Shaw
and Senators Piles and Ankeny 10
days ago, but the announcement was
to have been delayed until next Mon
day, when Assistant Secretary Keeps

naturally desirous that the. test be
made when climatic and other condi-
tions are favorable, but Mr.. Wilson
hopes that it can be induced to al
low the water to be turned in, in a
few days.
The only appreciable damage done
by the recent hood was where the
waters of the creek OverflOwed just
below the Wickersham bridge and un-
covered about 100 feet of pipe and
caused it to bulge up. 1t is said that
the pipe was uninjured and that it
will be easy to excavate beneath it,
and take out the dirt which was
washed in by the flood and put the
pipe back where it belongs.
The large ''T" will not be installed
until the exact site for reservoir
is selected but it will be possible to
turn the water in at the Wickersham
place without waiting to put in the
"T", according to Mr.. Wilson.

mediate sentence. The court was not
prepared, however, to take the mat
ter up at that time, and postponed
the case until yesterday morning.
"Suffering from rheumatism"
When the case was called, Boyd
arose to address the court, the Spo
kane Chronicle telling of the affair
as follows:
"This is only matter of fight be.
tween Mr. Enright and some of the
police officers explained the prisoner
Il admit passing a bad check in Da
kota, but it was on the train from st
Paul, and since the offense for which
l am wanted in Dakota is the same as

son that l am suffering from rheuma.

mo excuse at all, your honor, there

Where is your home?"
Il had rather not say where my
home is"
Have you a family?'
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1907-01-12

mo, SIR
How long have you been in Spo'
kane?"
About two weeks, your honor.
From where did you come when
you came to Spokane?"
From the east
From what part of the east?'
81 had rather not be compelled to
say"
"Since the offense in the two states
is of the same nature, and the prisoner
was arrested here, l see no reason
why he should not be punished here. y
"In View Of Past Life"
''In view of your past life, which
from the showing, seems to have been
full of such crimes" stated the court,
in addressing the prisoner, Il am dis
posed to impose heavy penalty. Your
sentence is that you be imprisoned at
Walla Walla at hard labor for lO
years."
The bad check upon which the
prisoner was arrested in Spokane was
for $40 and was cashed by James Dur
kin, who swore out the warrant for
the arrest. The one cashed at the
train, for which the defendant was
wanted in Dakota was for $67. 1t is
believed that the defendant is not an
amateur in his line of crime.
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1907-01-12

The Walla Walla penitentiary will
receive within the next few days a
much-wanted man whose name will
be affixed to the register as a guest
of Warden Kincaid under sentence
of 10 years. The mans sentence is
a heavy one-a year for every dollar
secured by the COMMUNICATING crime
consisting of having passed a forged
checw for $40.
E. E. Boyd is the prisoners name,
and he comes here from Spokane
bearing an excellent reputation as a
criminal of high degree.
There was novel rivalry on in
Spokane to secure Boyd as a guest
in a state prison. North Dakota was
after him, the prisoner being charged
with having cashed a forged check on
a train from ST. Paul while passing
through North Dakota. officers from
that state were in court at the time
appointed by the Spokane judge to
pass sentence and, they asked that
this action be deferred until reQuisi-
ton papers from their governor could
reach the Falls City.
Throughout, it had been evident
that Boyd was not particularly anx-
ious to return to North Dakota. When
first arrested on the Spokane charge,
he waived preliminary hearing, and

Twelve inches of snow fell in Sc

PROPOSE A REFORMATORY

PROPOSE A REFoRMAT0RY

The segregation of criminals into two
classes-the hardened and the minor
criminals-and the providing of an in
stitution for those of the latter classes,
the hardened ones to remain confined
at the state penitentiary in this city,
are the recommendations made in the
report to Governor Mead by commit
tee appointed by him to consider the
advisability of establishing a reform
atory in this state modelled after the
institutions now being operated at Ell
mira, N Y, Mansfield, Ohio and Hutch
inson, Kan.
The work Of the committee was de-
vided into the examination in detail
of two questions-first, the reason and
purpose as we'll as the advisability of
the reformatory; and second, the finan-
cial side of the question, which involved
the cost to the state and the saving
that might accrue from having a re-
formatory SYSTEM in relieving the PEN
itentiary at Walla Walla.
The report is Important to Walla
Wallans in that it provides for the
sending to this city of only the hard
ened criminals, those of the tougher
class who are known far and wide as
Jail birds and whose sentences GUS
tomarily range from five years to 25
years. Petty criminals would not be
sent here.
Regarding the first point the report
says:
"Since the enormous growth and the
rapid development of Washington, the
study of legislation forces itself more
and more upon the minds of the
thoughtful who have the future in
terests as well as the present welfare
of the state at heart The legislator
who helps to guide his fellowman into
proper respect for the law, if unfor-
tunately he has disregarded it will par
ticularly contribute toward the sue
cess of the laws intent and purpose.
