OLYMPIA, Nov. IL, 1888.
Ed. STANDARD:
We have it from reliable author
ity, that Mr.. Judson's friends accuse
the firm of Ballard & McFadden
with causing Mr.. Judsen's recent
arrest for blackmiling purposes.
During the last six months or
more We have been asked by tho
pensioner to bring sui, to recover
from Judson the pension money of
William Ryan, to the amount of
three hundred aud twelve dollars,
which mo aeys, MIR. Judson, in his
written statement admits he took.
Not having enough evidence to sup
port civil action, the writer hereof
wrote Mr.. Cox, the U. s. Pension
Agent, at San Francisco for the
names Of the officers before whom
Mr.. Ryan had executed his pension
papers, and stated that Ryan claimed
he had received no pension for three
years and nine months. This letter
was written in the name OF the firm
by the undersigned who never
dreamed of being the means Of
bringing out the charges against Mr..
Judson. OF this letter Mr.. McFad-
don knew nothing until last week.
Nj. Cox Endorsed the letter and
forwarded it 10 Washington. The
case # Ryan against Judson was not
begun and'ths thought of it mad left
our minds, until last week when
Mr.. Conner, Special Pension Agent,
called at our Office aud produced the
letter We had written, dated June 7,
1883. Mr.. Conner then produced
the vouchers purporting to contain
MIR. McFaddsn's signature eighteen
different times, which Mr.. Judson in
bis written statement says were a.
tachsd by himself. Thus innocently,
the undersignedWas the cause Of
bringing about the trouble which
falls to Mr.. Judson's lot. II
his friends had not accused US of
wrongs We are not guilty Of towards
Mr. 1udson, We had remained
silent. As i, is We shall let the
matter drop At present with
single denial OF the charges made
by MIR. Judson's friends.

be held in Columbia Hall. beginning
on Thursday evening, the 22d inst.
In" proceeds are to be applied to-
waids the completion OF the fine
cdiilce erected by them, OF which
the city has good reason to feel
proud. Many useful and orna.
mental articles will be exposed for
sale and doubtless ample provision
will be made for the comfort Of
the inner man."
The hslf-lot on the northeast cor
ner Of Main and Fourth Streets
owned by Mr.. T. 'mund Sylvester
was sold few days ago to Mr..
kecnapple for 81 600 cash. which in
dicates that Olympia property is
rapidly approaching in value even
though no" boom" has yet been inau-
gurated. The fact is that spectators
have begun to realize that there is
money in local real estate at the val
ues which have been placed upon it,
and prudent men are beginning to
trim their rails for the breeze Of
prosperity soon to sweep over the
whole community. Next season will
show that their course has been guild
ed 10y sound business policy.
A recently arrived capitalist has
rendered an offer of. $4,000 for the
two lots known as the Howard prop
erty on the southwest corner of Main
and Fourth streets. This is 4 most
liberal offer. aud il it would be &C.
cepted we are informed that the i'm
mediate result would lie q stately,
,hree.stery brick block designed for
stores and business Offices. When
foreign capitalists come here and
make ovsrtures which not only keep
pace with the increased intrinsic
value OF real estate but endorsed
with promises of improvements that
throw iuto the shade anything that
our town now can boast. it is sui
cidsl to our best interests to send
them away disheartened and dis
gusted. When will Olympia prop
srty owners learn little wisdom.

The Luling Signal indjtes leader on con-
vict labor. The Signal wants the lease sys-
tenn abandoned and is opposed to hiring out
convicts. With regard to the latter prac-
tice the Signal says:
In the first place it gives convicts good
opportunity to escape, and when once free,
with price for his head, tho convict be-
comes desperate, knowing that any act he
may commit can only consign him back to
The same punishment he has just escaped.
Then a number of guards are required to
lock after these men while at work, and to
che shame of the state be it said that toe
little regard for the lives Of these poor un
fortanaSes has been manifested by those
who have been employed to watch over
them. Convicts have frequently been sho'
down without provocation by brutal men
who We're placed over them, and we have
heard of no instance where the murderer
has been punished
It is an open question whether the guards
are not often worse than the convicts, ant
deserving 10 change places with them.

The Houston Post speaks Of the proposed
Texas Press excursion to Monterey, Mexico,
as follows:
There are many special reasons why such
an excursion will be esteemed enjoyable and
instructive The objective point is one pre-
senting singular features ofinterest toAmer-
leans, and especially to Texans. AS typ
ical representation of Mexican life and bust.
ness of the better sort, and as a health re-
sort with promise surpassed by none,
Monterey is an attraction on the programme
that could be well substituted by no other.
1t is near by railroad, and yet introduces
the visitor into scenes as marked and dis
tinctive As the capital itself. II requires but
a brief absence and small expense, and the
run there will afford view of the hne rail
road improvements which are now remodel
ling the aspects Of our international relations
and laying the foundations of great trade
The Post emphatically indorses the propo
sition of President Gosling, and hopes thai
there will not only be q large and harmo
Nous meeting Of the ASSOCIATION at our sis
ter city, Dallas. but that the majority of tbs
members will avail themselves OF this op
nor unity to run up to the table lands OF
Old Mexico.
