DEATH FROM AfroPLEXy. Mr.. Andrew
Pitts, highly respected citizen, who lived
near the head of Dry Creek, WAS stricken
by appoplexy at an early hour Thursday
morning, ard died at ii o'clock that night.
Deceased was native Of Pennsylvania, but
was raised in North Carolina. He subse-
queptly removed to Missouri, and enaigrated
from that state to this valley, in 1860. He
first took up claim on Dry Creek, the place
where he died, and then removed to the
Willamette valley. The climate not suitlng
him he returned to Walla Walla IN 1858,
and from that date to this has been resi-
dent of this valley. He was about Is years
of age. and was a man of fine personal ap-
pearance. In his immediate neighborhood
and among those who know him well he was
highly esteemed. He leaves an aged wife to
mourn his death. After the first attack he
partially rallied, but the hand of death was
upon him and he passed away at the hour
noted above.

CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTIONAL Puget
Sound paper charges that Governor Ferry,
through the means Of his tools, is arranging
to capture the constitutional convention, and
that ali the wires are already set for that
purpose. In advance, it is well enough 10
have it understood that if the convention is
controlled and manipulated by Ferry It's
work will comc TO naagl.t. The people Of
Washington territory lave come TO regard
Ferry as a political tricl,ster Of the worst
type, and any measure that hears his ear
marks will be viewed with suspicion. His
connection with the Harmon insane asylum
swindle stamped him with infamy and made
him a stencil in the nostriis of all honest
men. Very many taxpayers now favor the
state movement, hoping thereby to get rid CT
Ferry and his gang of thieves; bat if tie
change IS to have 10 better result than to
perpetuate ring rule, they viii have rone
of it. If Ferry and his confederate thieves
really desire the success of the state move
ment, tkey viii keep ont Of sight. Any
prominence on their part viii awaken dis
trust ard be quite sure to defeat the measure.
In this matter kIares are expected to take
back seats ard allow honest men 10 ccme to
the front.

likely to receive the republican nomination
70 succeed Mr.. Jacobs in congress- Mr., Allen
is said to be very popular on the Sound and
stands well with all divisions OF his party
Messrs. T. J. Anders and I. II. Brents, both

with the nomination. Both gentlemen have
warm friends who will labor for their snc-
cess On the democratic side we hear named

Of this formidable arrsy of names the parties

LOYALTY is a word the abuse Of which has
rendered it almost repulsiye In the late
mutton-hcad Legislature petition was pre-
sented signed by every settler living at the
head of Dry Creek, asking to be attached to
Walla Walla county. In the district named
Tie people unanimously desired this change,
and Hon. W. T. Earnes, their Immediate
representative, introduced bill to meet their
wishes. Tie abuse OF TIE terra loyalty >
row comes in. When Tie lii came III on
its final passage, Mr. iaGa refused to vote
fer il, assigning as his reason tEat Wa!ia
WaNa county was ,Es!eyal to t!e territory.
Next Mr. Ringer, Of Whitman county, dis
regarded the wishes of the people, on the
same poor, ri;iiul plea, Messrs. Ringer and
LaDu are both democrats, and it is possible
that democratic Walla Waiia VIII at some
day have an opportunity to repay them n
kind Both of them are men OF ability, ant
both cf them are supposed to be ambitious,
and hence it is quite possible that, sooner or
later, they will be asking the suifrages of
our people A day of reckoning is sure to
come, and until that time We propose TO
keep a rcd in pickle for these loyal "
gentlemen.
