There is something curious about the

THE ORIGIN AND USE or THE MORO.
"E PLURIBUs UNgM."-E P'gri5m UHun
first appeared on copper coin, struck at
Newburg, New York State, where there
was private mint. The pieces struck are
dated 1856. In l7S1 the motto appeared
on several types of the New Jersey cop
pers, also on very curious gold doubloou,
or sixteen dollar piece coined by gold
smith named Brashsr II was there put
"UHum f. Pluribus." Only four of these
pieces are known to be extant. and they
are very valuable. One of them in posses
sion of the mint is supposed to be worth
over g, 600. When Kentucky was admit
ted, in 1891, it is said copper coins were
struck with E Piari5us THum The were
made in England The act Of Congress Of
1892, authorizing the establishment of
mint, and the coinage of gold, silver and
copper, did not prescribe this motto, nor
was it ever lsgalized. 1t was placed on
gold coins in 1926. aud on silver coins in
l79s. 1t was constantly used thereafter
until 1896. when il was Withdrawn from
the quarter dollar Of new device. In 1894
it was dropped from gold coins To mark the
change in the standard tinsness OF the com.
In 1887 it was dropped from the silver
coins. maxim" 49, area Of the revised

PUYALLUP Coal MINEs.-A recent
examination, Of the coal fields on the
Puyallup developed the fact, that on
Carbon river, IA branch of the Puy-
allup,) and only about three miles
from Wilkeson, there are seven veins
of coal within a space of 900 feet
along the river, making an aggregate
of fifty-six feet of solid coal Of good
quality, and that all lay at the same
angle of As degrees, showing that the
coal is in place at that point. The
Northern Pacific Company built their
road to Wilkeson, at cost of six
hundred thousand dollars, without
having careful survey of the coal field
made, and have spent seventy thous-
and more in costly laundering exper-
iments, and have finally shut down
their mine in disgust. There is an
independent company at work, and
they drove their gangway over 1900
feet, all the way in coal, but with
only light lift, but will reach a
heavy deposit, and other veins on
the Gale claim, in about four hundred
feet more in about two months. Com
petent experts report that there are
millions Of coal there, if the right
means are taken to get it out.-Olyns-

An Inter- Ocean, Bismarck. Dakota

Billings, with several gentlemen who
literally subscribed to the recent
loan of 5000 to the Northen Pa
cific, inspected the extension west
of the Missouri river. 1t is re-
ported that the president found the
work progressing too slowly, and
that he will take steps to stir up the
contractors. Billings says it is his
desire to build the whole distance
to the Yellowstone this year. As
to the change Of management there
is nothing definite, except that Bill
ings means 10 do the best thing he
can do for the interest of the road.

Vice President Stark will be the gen.
eral manager. With the completion
of the division of the Yellowstone.

New coal has been discovered on
the Skagit River, by Mr.. J. J. Conner,
just one mile west of the original
mine. The vein is five feet thick,
with four miles Of what is considered
excellent quality of blacksmith coal.
Mr.. Davis, an experienced mechanic
Of La Conner, pronounces it equal
to the celebrated Cumberland coal.
The outcropping is only one half mile
from the river bank, about 800 feet
above the water level. Mr.. Conner
is quite sanguine that he has made a
very valuable andimportantdis discovery.
The principal deep-sea shipping points
for this coal when mined will be Bel
bingham Bay, Anacortes, (Ship Har-
bor), or Utsalady, the distance to these
several harbors varying from twenty
to forty miles.-Beli''gham Bay MAIL

TREMENDOUS RAINFALL.-N eah

the following has been the rainfall
of the past six months: October,
1876 inches; November, 1871; De-
cember; 8.4S; January, 1898; Feb
ruary, 24.33; March, 1888; total
rainfall, 1O3.O4 inches. Wet as it
was here during the same time, we
have no idea that the entire fall ex-
ceeded 40 or so inches. For about
six weeks following Christmas, not
a single drop fell, while at Neah

The conclusion of the following
item from the Dalles Mou,ata;neer
is eminently correct: The story that
the o. S. n. Co. was about to sell
out TO the company represented
by Jay Gould, appears to be true.
We can't see that this change is 60
ing to be any benefit to the citizens
of The Dalles; in fact, we shall be
sorry to see the change take place.
If we are destined not to have CON-
petition on the Columbia river by
steamboat or railroad, then we would
much prefer the old company to re-
main in possession. The 0. s. N.
Co. is q monopoly; but, as such, it
is the best one on the Pacific coast,
and we "would rather bear ills we
now have than fly to others We know
not Of"

The Dalles Inland Empire: In
spite ofthe appearance of the black
crickets on some of the creek bot
toms of this county, the grain yield
of Wasco will be larger than was
ever known before. Two or three
weeks ago we took drive out as far
as Frank Huett's, on Eight-mile creek
where we saw some fields of wheat
that could not be surpassed even in
the fat valley Of the Palouse. The
establishment of another Touring mill
at this city has been thought by many
to be over crowding the business; but
if the acreage in wheat increases next
year as it has this year, no two mills
will be able to grind the wheat that
will be hauled here for sale. The
growth of grass has been enormous,
and the cattle and sheep are already
as fat as they can waddle. This year
has already been one of unecualed
prosperity for all the country outside
of this town.
