Long Expected Come at Last.

1t looks as though the time We 'old
settlers" have been hoping for so long
had arrived, says the Olympia Courier and
that our country is now witnessing that
change that has come to our more favored
sisters east of the Rocky Mountains
The natural resources and capacity of this
northwest coast have been as household
words to us for many years but the COM
binntion of capital and enterprise needed
to develope and utilize them was lacking
Enterprise was abundant-in fact 1t was
the spirit of genuine enterprise that
brought us all here so many years ago,
but the money was not here that alone
could fill up the valleys, cut down noun
tains, bridge rivers and construct the vast
and costly works needed to open up the
country TO settlement and tn transport It's
nroductions to and fro. The o. S. n

eastern capital, in the hands OF men who
have had the best training in the world,
that the daily experience with railroads.
steamships and kindred matters, has be-
gun to pour into this western land. 1t Is
a reasonable hope that the work now IN
progress may be pressed forward and that
the other enterprises that follow the rall-
road and telegraph may multiply on every
hand

The Milk in the Coeoanut

The Spokane Times in its last issue
makes an attack upon Judge D. c. Lewis,
the land agent of the North Pacific COM
pany at Co.fax The attack was unwar-
ranted, and until the Northwest Tribune
came to hand the reason therefor was
wrapped in mystery. The following from
a letter written to the Tribune previous to
the attack will throw some light upon the
subject:
About three months since. the editor
of the Times wrote TO the \. 7. L. Il:
Co.'S. Office at ColfaI. saying that he had
been frequently asked if the \. T. X X.
Co could give a god title to these lands
that he did not know much about It, but
if the company would sell him halt Sec
ton of land, that he would name, near
Spokane Falls, and take pay In advertis,
ing IN the Spokane Times, that ne would
tell the people that in his opinion IT could,
and that he had confidence enough IN IT IN
buy. The proposition WAS declined on
the part of the company
1t is very evident from this that the
company have no particular use for the

Rlaeknailing Rascals.

1t has been our duty as an editor TO ex.
pose the rascally tricks of q couple of Lit.
tie rascals who have for some time been
running blaekmai!ing sheet in this CITY,
and made an exis.ance by terrifying some
at our citizens into giving them work and
advertising, under threats Of writing sian.

the majority of our town folks their over
lures have been met with scorn and they
have literally been shown the door
IN many instances and treated with such
well merited contempt that their sheet
has snly ben used by few political hacks

have used to blacken our character, there

past 10 years in this upper country but
they have written to for information that
they might publish All these letters
have stated that the nnmes of the pivers
OF such. information would not be- used.
and the request was also made that if
they knew nothing. the address Of some
one who could give such information
would be very acceptable. So far the
result has been an utter failure. We
know We have many enemies but to their
honor be It said they are gentlemen who
would sccrn to write falseho,ris respecting
one who has ever done his best for the
country both IN developing its resources
and facing every danger in time Of dire
