The Prevalence of Crime.

Every mornings dispatches brings
to us the narrowing details of crimes
committed throughout the Uuitcd
states and the world. a man shoots
his wife, negroes arc lynchcd and
hanged for murders and rapcs, and
sons and daughters are found guilty
of high crimes committed in their
own families. The fratcrnal ties of
kindred instead of restraining the
bad passions, seem to add stronger
fire to them, and to prompt deeds ten
times more dcvilish. 1t is a common
remark that crime is on the increase.
The good old days Of hundred
years ago are referred TO as days of
virtue and integrity, Of which our
degenerate times form but sorry
contrast. 1t is true that crime is more
prevalent now than formerly, and
there are many reasons why this Is
true, the chief of which is the rapid
increase Of population. Second to
this is the rapid acquisition of wealth
and its consequent unequal distribu-
ton among the people. But there
is also reason why there should
seem to be a greater prevalence of
crime than formerly, and that is the
improved means for the transmission
of news. Now days important events
arc known all over the country al
most co-temporaneously with their
occurrence, and crimes and INSIDE
meanors of lesser grade, Of which
in former times, the world outside
Of their particular localities knew
nothing, are to day, when they occur
telegraphed to every nook and cor.
ncr Of the land. We know more

Seeing a communication in your

been induced to try and describe the
country lying between the East and
North forks of Lewis River for the
benefit of migrants or othcs who
contemplate settling down.
Lewis River proper, foikes about
three miles from the mouth, one
branch running from a Northeasterly
direction, the other from the East.
The tract of land lying between them
that is known to be generally adapt
ed to agriculture, extends back
twcnt or twenty-five miles and its
avcrgc breadth is from eight to
twelve miles; comprising within its
limits, some of the best farming and
timbered land in the Territory.
The Chclachic and Yackall, with
numerous smaller prairies, are as
good agricultural land as can be
found in any country. The soil
is a rich black loan with red
clay sub-soil. Then we have a good
" portion of creek and river bottom
lands which are unsurpassed in fer
tility, producing in some instances

Of what is going on in the world
fifty or hundred years ago, and in
deploring the degeneracy Of the
times, we should not forget to take
this into account. Humanity is very
much the same in all ages, the world
over. Surrounding conditions mod
ify its sterner aspects, but guilt and
suffering still have their allotted
spheres, have their mission to fulfil,
and will be more prevalent as the
arena of humanity's action in any
given country is enlarged.

The Special Tax.

In another column Of this weeks
issue appears communication from
Judge Petrain and others, relative to
the school tax and the Catholic
Mission, which will no doubt be read
with interest by all concerned in
these matters. We advocate the
public school system, and arc in favor
of taxes for its support, and that these
taxes be levied upon and collected
from the people at large the same as
other public revenue is raised but we
ad>odate just as strongly the princi-
pie tina. all these measures should
be supported by legal and fair means.
No candid mind should desire to sue
coed in any cause by resort TO eva
sion of Justice, by tricks and serrupti-
tious proceedings. In The present
controversy the Directors of this
School District have proceeded to
levy a special tax under law pur-
porting to giv> them that authority.
Under that law the Directors had at
least color of authority to lew such
a tax. But the question arises is
that law constitutional: Does it lc-
gally confer the authority assumed
by the Dircctors: That is the ques-
ton now sought to be decided. 1t
is Just that it should be decided, and
no candid mind will condemn those
who initiate the proceedings ncccs-
sary to obtain such decision. Upon
the other hand, we do not see how
any one can reasonably object to the
manner of proceeding i'll these mat
tiers of school taxation. a vote Of
the people decide the matter. 1t is
the majority who say yes, or no to
the special tax, and when voted like
other taxes it falls equally upon all;
as we'll upon the man who votes, yes,
as upon him who votes no. Who are
to rule if not the majority of the peo-
pie; First let the COrstitutionality
of the law be decided, then if ma
GRITTY iavors special tax let us have
the tax. There is certainly no tyr
amy, from oppression about this.

Communication.
EDITOR INDEPENDENTS:

| DITOK
In your issue of the 18th inst, APP
pears the following:
The Directors of Vancouver
School District No. 6 have been
served with a temporary injunction
to restrain them from further pro-
cecdings in the special tax law. The
suit being in the interest of the Cath
Ole Mission is brought by Judge
Petrain, etc.
Now we arc surprised to find the
Catholic Missions name used in this
connection when it is publicly known
who the parties are that are making
this legal effort to prevent the col
lection of this, to as, illegal tax. The
Chairman of the Directors could
himself give you better information
than to use the name of the Catholic
Mission in this or any other case.
This is so much the more evident
when YOU consider that the Cath
Ole Mission as such, is exempted by
law Chc law generating church
property from taxation) from any tax
whatever.
The aim of the taxpayers, mot
the Catholic Mission) in opposing
this law, is to uphold and defend the
rights of American Citizens, for if
without prosecuting, we allow our.
selves to be oppressed and trampled
upon by illegal proceedings, we
might know where it begins, but
never could see the end, for unchcck-
cd illcgality brings arrogance and
oppression, oppression, ty,'nny.
And as natural consequence on the
other hand oppression and slavery.
hence, Mr.. Editor, whilst VIC have
paid and arc willing to pay all just
and legal taxes for any and all pur-
poses, we publicly decline to pay till
proved lcgaD this and any other tax
which we consider illegal, whether
that tax be applied to school or any
other purpose.
This resolution we feel satisfied
will meet the approval Of any true,
honest, unprejudiced citizen, to whom
the words "Libcriy and Constitu-
ton are not empty sounds.
In behalf of the taxpayers of

toes per acre. l have raised crop
of potatoes that averaged three hun
dred and sixty bushels to the acre
on timbered land, and have seen over
sixty bushels of wheat produced on
one acre of the same kind Of land.
The timbcred land is mostly good
for farming, which rcpays we'll for
clearing. The first two or three
years it is worth from ten to thirty
dollars per acre to clear the land gen
orally, but the timbered land is inter
spersed with swalc land and fern
openings, to considerable extent.
So that with but few exceptions
there is, on every lot of eighty acres,
sufficient open land to produce veg
ctables for any ordinary family the
first two or three years.
would call attention to body of
timber lying within the limits of this
district few miles bacl, from the
junction of the two rivers, cmbra-
cling several thousand acres, timbcred
with yellow, red and white fir, also
some cedar, alder, soft maple, ash,
etc. etc. There are some small
farms on this tract of land, but talk
ing it all over, it is hard to beat for
timber. 1t would be a splendid
place for a man with small cap:ral
10 lo,ate sawmill which could
hardly fail to be rcmuncrative to
the owner, us timber is pretty
we'll cut out on the river, and
lumber is high, being atprcsent
ten dollars per thousand; large
quantities being used even at this
price. 1t could be cut for less
than two thirds that price, and then
a fair margin left for profit. Plenty
of lumber is one Of the things we
need for the rapid development Of
the country. If some energetic man
of means would start in here he would
find good opening in this direction,
We have plenty of energetic men,
and plenty of capitalists, but our en-
crgetic men lack the capital, and Our
capitalists lack Tie energy, appear

Our Manufacturing Prospects

Western Washington Territory
with its forests, its water power, and
its extensive coal fields is destined, in
time, to take high rank among the
great manufacturing districts of the
world. Nature has here bestowed
variety of native productions
scarcely cxccllcd in any other coun-
try. And while at the present time,
the territory is neither distinctively
agricultural, nor manufacturing, the
variety of its resources render it GER
tain in time, under the hand of labor
and invention, to attain to a high de-
gree of prosperity. In view of this
fact, it becomes the people of this
AGE, if they would conserve the in
tercsts of postcrity, to look we'll to
the protection of these forests. The
forests have been made the subject Of
report by the commissioner of the
General Land Office, referring cspe-
cialv to this northwestern country,
recommending thc adoption of more
effective means 10, preventing the
unlawful appropriation and wiltul
obstruction oftimbcr. This is good
movement, and we trust, will result in
good to the country. Avast amount
Of valuable timber is destroyed every
yearly fires carclessly, thoughtlcssly,
and often criminally started by those
who have neither the fear of the law,
nor regard for the rights of others
before their eyes. 1t is the province
of the local authorities to attend to
this. "Nigilance is the price of lib
crty." also the price of timber, let
every good citizen make it business
to see that the timber is protected in
his ncighborhod from all such ruth
less obstruction. This timber is the
dormant capital which shall sometime
produce abundant wealth for our
people. Let it be protected.
