WALlA WALLA APPLES At
THE LEWISTON NEWS
DEPOT.

THE ODD FELLOWS gave an installation
ball and supper Tuesday night, to which
each member was permitted to invite one
person beside his lady. About forty-two
couple were present, and a splendid even
ings' entertainment was the result of the
painstaking efforts of the members of this
organization. We have heard that few
were dissatisfied at not receiving Invitations
but it must be remembered that the order
is all exclusive one, established for the
mutual benefit and projection of it's own
members, and no one outside of the order
has any claims upon them. 1t is folly to
think that any person was sighted or ostra-
cised because they were not invited The
presumption is that those neglected were
just a. worthy as those invited, and they
have no just cause of complaint. The sun
will doubtless shine upon them just az
brightly, and the blessings of life flow to
Them jus: fully and freely as if they had
been invited

Growth of tho Monster.

Under the above caption the Oregon
V'dette has the following: Do the people Of
the United States realize the steady, silent,
but constantly increasing growth Of the
monopoly monster! At the census in 1860
the class Of people comprised in the farmers,
mechacics and mcrch ,nts owned 60 per
cent of all the property in the United
States, and the bankers and SPECTATORS
owned the other 40 per cent
In 1870 the census showed that the pro.
portion of property between these two classes
had 80 changed from ratio of 1860 that the
bankers had secured so per cent. OF the
property, while the farmers, mechanics aud
merchants held only the other half, or the
other so per cent.
And now in 1881, the census shows that
the bankers and spectators have secured
60 per cent, or three-fifths of all the pro.
perty, while the farmers an | others have
now only two tifths of the property Of the
country.
This vast change of the possession and
ownership of property, from the hands Of
the many who labor, to the hands Of the
few who sit in nice offices, has been effected
by means Of the National Bank, railroad
and tariff monopolies. And the change is
still rapidly going on, and if not checked
by fair and just laws to protect the people,
it will not be fifty years until the produc
ing class of the United States will be as
veritable slaves to their lords and masters,
as the people of Russia and Ireland are to
day This is why we are an Anti Monop
olist.
I'VE are not advised of the authority upor
which the 1idene makes the above state
ment in regard to the increased proportio.
of the capital of :he country being in thu
hands of Bankers ana capitalists. But TIN
announcement is startling, and demands in
vestigation, and if it be true as stated b,
that journal, it certainly behooves the PEG
pie to enact some law that shall bette
distribute the capital of the country. tn

GARFIELD COUNTY. THE election in Gar.
field county comes off on Monday next.
The contest between different points for
the comfy seat has been growing warm
for some weeks past, in case the temper and
tone of the papers, published in that county
can be considered test Of the feelings of
the people upon the question. 1t is not our
province to interfere with this purely local
question belonging to the people of that
county alone. They don't need our adj
vice, and if they did they would not thank
US for volunteering it unsolicited from
another county. We can wish and hope
that the question will be adjusted in man
ner for the good Of the entire people Of that

MIR. JOHN BREARLY who has just return
ed from short visit to Portland, informs
us that real property IN that city is booming,
that large number of new brick blocks are
being constructed at great cost, that the
people there are very sangui e, with few
exceptions, of the prospect for Portland's

The School ENTERTAINMENT. Friday
eve the scholars of the Grammar and High
School, entertained their parents and others
with . rehearsal of original and selected
pieces; spoken and read in highly cred,-
table manner 1t was the first public show
ing they had made under the new order of
school arrangements, The performance
was listened to with marked attention and
evident satisfaction, and gave evidence
that during the two months the school has
been in session, considerable diligence has
been employed in instruction, and in sys-
tematising and disciplining the school.
Near the close of the exercises, Mr.. Gard.
ner, the principal, gave a rendering Of
Grays bard in quite all Evolutionary style.
Every appearance of the evening evinced
progress, aud We may have reason to hope
that If not interrupted by splenetic cavilings
of parents and guardians in the presence
and hearing of the pupils, our schools will
under the management Of Mr.. Gardner,
still progress to a much higher standard,
and become An ingredient for reasonable
pride and boast Of our city.
