a Commission for Washington.

Lewiston T,Hn'
Several Of the Puget Sound papers
suggest and urge the cSpedieucy and
Importance of sending a commission
to Washington city the present sos.
sion of Congress to aid Brcnts as
lobbyists in securing the passage Of
the enabling bill for the admission
OF thc state Of Washington, The
WuIlG Walla Union takes up the sug-
gestion and names DR.. Minor and
Mr.. Burke Of the Sound, and Miles
Moore Of Walla Walln, aS said com
missiouers, and further suggests that
north Idaho be represented either by
Mr.. Siugi-cr or some other person
whom the people may choose. Such
Il commission will be attended with
several Thousand dollars expense and
the movement for it should have been
made at an earlier date. The import
auce OF the commission must be APP
parent to every intelligent citizen Of
Washington and north Idaho, and if
selected the members should be men
well versed in topography, geography
and resources Of the section of coun-
try which is to comprise the new
state, as well as the present and pro
spectiye development Of the same,
and the people of north Idaho should
not be in the least backward in con
tributing their pro rata towards pay
ing the necessary expenses of said
commission. Ii anything is to be
done in this direction it should be
done without further delay, 50 as to
be in time for the commission to
reach Washington city and get in
their work upon the members of Con-
gress before the bill for admission is
called up for consideration.

~ SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT, T47C

We are making an effort to bring
this journal up to the cash in od-
rance system, without deviation. Il
i the only legitimate hasisot healthy
business. We are giving full value
in return for support, and our pa
irons can afford to pay up their ar
rearages better than we can afford to
do without the money. In the az
yTegatn these arrearageS amount to
several hundred dollars. In order
to encourage all to lay aside bashfuI-
ness in this matter, we have deter
mined upon an inducement that Is
worthy of consideration. Having
made arrangements with the publish
er of the ChicaJo Weekly Ne,rS which
enable lis to offer that paper as IL
premium to our subscribers, at no
additional cost over the price OF the
ARGUS, we will send it for one year
free to any delinquent subscriber to
our weekly edition, upon payment or
subscription to date and - for one
year in advance. To any new sub
sciber who will send lis - for one
years subscription to the WEEKLY
ARGUS, before Feb. Is, 1888, We viii
also send the Chicago NerS for one
year free. The ARGUS is advancing
with steady strides toward the posi-
tion of leading and representative
newspaper of Puget Sound. We
have added over one thousand dol
lars worth of new material to its
mechanical outfit during the present
year, and no pains will be spared in
the future to make it all that the sup
port will warrant. But subscribers
must aid us by prompt payments.

Civil service reform is curious
thing. Democrats who were furious
in their demands for it year or two
ago, are just as anxious now to put
off action upon this subject for year
or two, in view of the possibility Of
a democratic administration in 1884
Their cat has escaped from the meal
bag through the agency Of Congress
man Brown, of Georgia, who is hon
est enough to say that democrats do
not now want any change made look
ing to a heightened tenure of office
until there is a chance of having the
offices filled by men of their own par
ty. 1t is argued that the offices
should be operated on business prin-
ciples, keeping experienced incum-
bents on duty. No doubt this plan
would secure the greatest efficiency
throughout the public service. 1t is
also claimed with some show of rea-
son that our present uncertainty of
official tenure greatly increases the
temptation to peculation and swind-
ling. On the other hand, let de-
cided change be made and there would
soon be decided objection raised on
the ground that no set OF men have a
right to the offices in this land of
equality; that the new system would
tend toward building up an office
holding aristocracy, etc. On the
whole, it is perhaps best civil service
reform measures should be somewhat
conservative and gradual in the
changes they introduce.

Hamlet" it now appears, was liar of
the first water. He speaks of an "un-
discovered country from whose bourne
no traveller returns" and that too, Just

his fasLer's gost, that had recently
arrived from the said undiscovered

discrepancy is susceptible of n very salts.
factory explanation. The reason no
traveller ever returns from the undis-
covered country is self-evident. II the
country is undiscovered no traveller ever
found it and, of course, it is impossible
for travler to return from a country he
never reached. II a traveller ever did
get to that country Of course it would nc
longer be an undiscovered country.

An eastern exchange objects to the
admission of Washington Territory
to statehood because of its name
which would be likely to cause con
fusion, there being so many wash

likely that the people would object tc
admission under any title, as that is

The ."Peninsular Enterprise" an ex-
celleAt paper published at Accomack
Court House, on the native heath OF
John S. Wise, gives the following calm ac-
count of his speech and the impression
he made among his fathers own, if not
his own, people. The account carries
truth on it's face. If Johnnie hasn't the
strength on the Eastern Shore, where in
the name of pity will he get his votes.
- .'Hon. John S. Wise, the Coalition can
didate for Congress for the State at large.
delivered ]ene thy address to an atten-
tive audience composed for the most part
of those opposed to him politically, at our
Court House on last Monday. His speech
may be briefly summed up under three
heads. First, anecdotes, which we laughed
at and enjoyed. Second, the dead issues
of reimbursement, which fell upon dull and
listless ears, as no one recognizes it AS an
issue in the political contest in which we
are new engaged, and thirdly, his views in
relation to the Arthur Administration,
the obligations Of our people to the same.
and our duty to give it cur support. He
qualified his fealty to the Arthur Admin
istration by saying he was tor Arthur,
Hancock, or any other man who was for
him, but wound up with the declaration
that Arthur was our best friend at pres
emit, or words to that effect. His speech,
from his standpoint, was considered good
effort. but the impression made by it upon
his hearers was not such as to further his
political aspirations. On the contrary. il
is safe to assert. we thlpk. that while it,
made no new friends, 1t convinced many
who had not intended to do so, that it was
theil duty to give Mr.. Massey their sup
port and alienated others, perhaps. who
were laboring under The delusion, because
they were Readjusters, it was their duty to
give him their support.

Mr.. Massey will be elected. He says he
does not hear of single Democrat in the
Southwest that declines to support him,
and that he knows of many Readjuster
Democrats who have heretofore been
friendly to Malone who are now working
for Massey. He thinks that Malone re-
allies now the mistake he made in break
ing with Fulke rson, or he would not have
sent Elan to the Southwest on that er-
rand of recon ciliation which proved such
signal failure. Among tire strong back
ers and staunch supporters that Mr. Mas
sey has in the Ninth District, are Floyd and
Sam Hurt, two of the best party managers
in that part of the State, formerly Malone
men but now bitterly opposed to him.
One OF them was Director Of the Gener-
ais railroad and Superintendent of the
Salt Works. They have the assistance OF
Mr.. Kelley. the Readjuster member of the
House of Delegates. Judge Rhea OF the
County Court, Mr.. Ward, Of the Abidg-
don 'Virginian" and Major Summers, a
prominent lawyer of the Southwest, with
number of late Mahoneites in every
county in the district. The Senator says
that this change in public sentiment Is
surprising, that in Tazwell county it is
especially noticeable and the falling off of
the supporters of Wise and Bowen is. and
the assertions from the Coalition every
where over the State, are so marked that
it will be miracle if Malone is not de-
feated.
