The hoffman Suit.

1t is reported George a. hoffman
discovered the salient points upon
which he bases his complaint against
the city for injunctive relief against
the appropriation of money out OF
the general fund TO pay for the
street intersections on Main street;
the principal ground being that the
original resolution adopted by the
Council provided the whole cost of
the improvement. including street
intersections, should be assessed
against the abuttlng property.
1t seems the Council passed an
ordinance in conformity with this
resolution, which was vetoed by the
Mayor. Thereafter another ordinance
was passed to make the city pay out
of the general fund the cost of paw
ing at the intersections.
Now the question is whether this
defect is jurlsdictiOnal and invali-
dates the entire proceedings, which
if correct will not prevent a new as
sessment, and make additional COS is
and the taxpayers will have to foot
the bills for the Councils mistakes.
The further proposition about the
city being indebted to an amount ex-
ceeding the legal limitation, is an
elastic question under the decisions
OF the court.

ARTICLES of incorporation of the

capital stock of 100000, divided
into $4,000 shares. The incorpora-
tors are W. D. Cody. J. G. Foster

EMOTIONAL PREACHING.-The no.
torious antics of Billy Sunday. who
performed the acts of a harlequin to
amuse the hearers who thronged his
meetings from curiosity to see a
jumping jack in action, if nothing
more; or the imprisoned utterances
of a Gypsy Smith, who it is claimed
caused men to tumble over one an
other through emotional excite
ment while crowding the largest halls
by day or by night whenever or
wherever he designed to make an APP
pointment for his phenomenal meet
ings, reminds us of similar conditions
existing over third of century ago,
when young l.ssie, connected, we
think, with the Salvation Army, de-
veloped SO much of this evangelistic
power that she was allowed to travel
as an exhorter for revival efforts. She
came to Olympia, and literally car
ried the village by storm, especially
the so-called tougher element, and
their alteration of the talented slip
of o girl was unbounded and continu-
ally on their tongues end, the ducats
fairly ratified in the contribution
plate when it passed. 1t literally
proved, however, to be a case O.
too much Johnson" and when, one
evening, she ended an imprisoned
appeal with, my dear hearers |
wish l could take you in my arms and
carry you to the throne OF grace"
the amens from all over the hall be-
came so vociferous as to interrupt
the speaker, while some enthusiasts
crowded the aisles, presumably to be
among the first to be saved. This
was too much, and the friends in the
guild who had sent the exhorter into
the field Immediately recalled her to
more quiet and less exacting labors
of the big drum.

DEMAND FOR TEACHERS OF AaRI-
CULTURE.-The call for teachers who
are prepared to teach home econom-
les, manual arts, agriculture, horti-
culture and allied branches, is imper-
alive. The recent widespread agita-
ton in behalf Of better living in the
country and a more productive agri-
culture arises from permanent need.
Soil must produce more than it does
at present. Boys and girls must be
kept at home, on the farm; and ii
they are not drawn into the cityward
drift, Countrywide must be made bet
ter. All this means that modern
education must be of the kind which
actually helps in the business of pro-
duction and home-making. So we
are witnessing a readjustment of the
whole educational system and the
putting in of vocational and industri-
al subjects in both elementary schools
and the higher institutions and COL
leges. In Washington, under rule
by the State Board of Education,
eighth-grade teachers are required
to teach either agriculture. horti-
culture, or forestry. In other States,
legislation is pending, requiring
teachers to pass examinations in
various industrial subjects.

DOES Nor ONE Coon TURN DESERVE
ANOTHER?-It does not seem to be the
proper thing for our people to favor
abrogation OF the treaty OF friendly
relations that have existed between
Russia and the United States since
1892, when we consider that she has
maintained that feeling for over three
fourths of century, and at the cru
cial epoch OF the Civil war, in this
country. when our utmost exertions
were taxed to maintain as o war
measure blockadeof southern ports,
and England was extending furtive
aid in fitting out Alabamas to give
aid and comfort" and cause it to
be Ineffective, condition that would
render it abortive by making it in
adequate against all nations. simply
lapse of power to maintain it unbro-
ken, who was it. but Russia that sent
her warships to patrol the Allan
tic seaboard and practically ordered
Great Britain to keep Hands of
OF . matter which did not concern her.
The present trouble which impels
the United States to interfere in
Russian affairs. is to threaten inter.
vention with the policy pursued by
Russia in regard to the passports OF
certain American Jews in that coun.
try, a trivial matter that it is difficult
to see how it can be magnified into
. matter Of more than protest with a
friendly power. It would doubtless
be as effective if this country has
real cause for grievance.

Keep the Money mt Home.


The citizens OF Tenino are prop
erly very indignant over our city
Council rejecting the bid for con-
struction of the city hall OF Tenino
stone, even though the cost may ap-
pear to be considerably higher than
that for use of concrete, every part
of which, except the water used in
: mixing il, comes from outside the
city and county. 1t appears that
this was specially favorable OPP
portunity for the exercise of that
much laudcd plan for establishing
and building up Thurston county in
dustrieS.
The sole plea for this action was
economy-that little less than ST.
900 would be saved in the relative
cost of material But the Council
men show that they would be get
ting more for their money. when
they suggest that the building is
considered a temporary result, and
that sometime in the future the city
and county will unite in erection of
much better building (of Tenino
stOne) and they meant to keep this
newly discovered chance open to dis
pose of the cement building which
might be easily remodeled and adapt
ed for other purpose, SO that it could
be bid for on bargain cour ter"
to enable q realization of a much
grander project than is now pre-
sented.
1t does seem strange that this was
not thought of before. or a location
secured now. as part of that gor-
geous plan. 1t really looks. to a
man up a tree, as if it is merely to
divert attention and remove criti-
cism from the present action.
The fact that by use of the Tenino
stone nearly all Of the expenditures
would be made in Olympia and Te-
nino. besides adding inestimable
prestige to what promises. with Or
binary recognition and support. to
be one of the leading resources of the
State. it really seems as if the use of
TeninO stone, at the rates submitted,
was by long odds the best bid from
economical view as well as for dura.
bility and ad aptability of the work.
The people of Tenino are making
the discovery that our city is being
run" too much by people in the
larger settlements of the Sound.
Tacoma already swaggers about in
bossing boots through the 7cins;
supplies all our gas. paving. and ex-
pioits bargain.comnter sales daily to
attract hard-earned dollars from
the pockets of our people. They
furnished the plans for the city hall,
and have apparently inside chances
on experimenting its construction,
and it does not seem improbable
that this newly devised suggestion
OF RELOCATING the present contem-
plated building to second place to
enlarge the sphere Of operations for
o. much larger future project may
not have emanated from the same
source.
1t is we'll for our people to think
OF these things. and if possible re-
consider the question of the kind of
supplies to 60 into the present build
! ing.

the bride being given away by her

scheme, with many flowers and ferns.
An informal reception followed the

Boys CORN CLUB

STATE CONTEST TO BE HELD
AT HOT SPRINGS INSTEAD
OF LITTLE ROCK.

Fayetteville, Sept. 7.-The annual
state contest among the corn club boys
will be held this year at the state fair,
Hot Springs, October GA, instead of
Little Rock in November. This is ne
cessitated on account of the fact that
corn club proper at Little Rock did
not materialize, and Little Rock did
not feel it equitable to be held respon-
sible for only portion of an exhibit.
That is, to say, the boys corn club
exhibit was to be part of the general
corn show, a show contemplated to be
of considerable magnitude. This gen.
eral plan, however, failed of maturity,
and as result Little Rock asked to
be relieved of the obligation to the
boys corn club part. Those in control
of the corn club work granted this re-
quest, and in turn laid plans before
the state fair for making the corn
