1t is recommended to the several
precincts that they hold their pri-
maries on Saturday, April 10, 1884,
at two o'clock p. NJ, to select dele
gates to this Convention and 1t Is
the earnest wish of the Committee
that full convention be had, as the
business before the convention is of
great importance.
Owing to the lateness of the day
in which the call from the Territorial
Committee is received by telegraph,
the Chairman of the Committee
feels compelled to act, not having
time to convene the committee.
Many reside at a great distance and
the time is too short for proper publi-
cation Of notices in hepapers, hence
the action Of the chairman in acting
for the whole committee.
Dated at Spokane Falls April 9TH,
1888.

Central Committe of Spokane

1t will hardly slip the notice Of the
public that the Odd Fellows Of this
city and surrounding country will
give a grand celebration in this place
next Saturday, the Goth anniversary
Of the Order. Every preparation
has been made for having a good
time, and il there should be a failure
attached it will not be the fault of
the members. The celebrated Ceur
d'Alene band has been secured to
furnish the melody and will con-
stitute marked feature of the per-
fOrmance. Besides the street parade
in the afternoon there will be a
grand ball at joys Opera House fol-
lowed by q banquet in the lodge
room at midnight. The following is
the line of march of the parade (:
Column starts from Opera House up
Post street 10 Sprague House thence

THE only reason for the Cheney
papers to find fault with the call for
a Republican County Convention is
that the Chairman made the call for
Spokane Falls. BY so doing they
show their ignorance. At the last
meeting of the County Central Com
mittee held in the Commercial HO-
tel at Cheney, it was there and then
decided by a unanimous vote that
Nhe next convention should be held
Spokane Falls. Chairman Ziegler
followed out the instructions of the
body Of which he is at the head and
Issued the call on the ground as set
forth in the document. 1t will thus
he seen that he was not assuming a
responsibility only delegated to him
by the committee. As far as we are
concerned it is immaterial whether
the Convention is held in Spokane,
Cheney or Marshall. Let it be any
where, but give us unity and
an enthusiastic determination on the
part Of the rank and file to win the
victory at the next election.

TAKING umbrage at the call for a
Republican Convention issued by
Hon. L. Ziegler, Chairman of the
Republican County Central Commit
tee, the papers at Cheney attack that
gentleman personally, coupling his
name with most abusive epithets.
Those papers have monopoly of
blackguardism, and We are never
surprised at anything they may say
Of this place, as it seems to be one OF
the chief aims Of those scurrilous
sheets to pitch into anybody or any
thing pertaining or belonging to the
stte ttff ett Stsftte III tfifs ffftttt fftte1tV-
or to awake prejudice against our
city. Mr.. Ziegler has shown himself
to be a wideawke, active represen-
tative of the party with which he
trains. He has done good work in
the past and is ready to assume his
share Of the labOrs necessary to Sc
cure success in the future. He has
proven that he has the best interests
Of the Republican party at heart on
more than one occasion. The faet of
his having been born in foreign
land is no stigma. He has lived in
America about as long as the pro-
prietors Of the Cheney papers, and it
is rather discredit upon Americans
that natives will so demean them
selves as the county seat organs
have in this instance. twas agross,
contemplate attack, but nothing
else could be expected emanating
from such a source. We believe the
papers below pretend to be Repub-
lican, but it is evident that the sole
object Of this break is to play into
the hands of the Democracy. Our
friends on the other side will prob
ably receive the recruits with pro-
testations of welcome, but will hold
their noses at the same time.

IN political circles the choice Of
President by the Republican Nation
al@Convention is the source Of a great
deal of conjecture. One day Blaine's
stock is up, the next Grants, the
next Logan's, and so on through a
long lst of prospective candidates.
Washington Territory, unfortunate
ly, has not a word to say, but looks
on with a growing interest. 1t is to
'be hoped that this section, deserving
place ON the flag, will have more to
zsay regarding National affairs before
iRnother year rolls around.

Tho concert that was advertised to come
of for the benefit Of the band last Tuesday

SATURDAY in Congress is the day
on which new members take the op.
portunity of hurting their burning
thoughts upon a defenseless people
But little work is done the time being
given up to talk, talk, talk. The
speeches usually made on that day
only see the light through the agency
of the Congressional Globe and even
then find but few readers. Last Sat.
urday, however. was devoted to the
discussion of subject more general
in its Importance than those usually
aired that day. The Fitz John Porter
case was brought up in the House,
and the number of members who had
previously been announced to speak
upon that subject was considerably
reduced. There is but little question
but the bill will pass the II ouse, and
probably the Senate. Having run
the gauntlet of those two bodies the
President will have it before him for
his approval. His veto of the mea-
sure would make him more friends
among the boys IL blue than giving
to 1t his signature of approval, and at
the same time be more nearly In line

THE trial of James Mutt for killing
Dukes was ended at Pittsburg last
Tuesday, the defendant being acquit.
ted on the grounds of insanity. There
will be those to exclaim at the un.
righteousness OF the verdict. but there
will be thousands to applaud it. Trac.
ing the case from it's beginning, with
it's bloody scenes and tragic end
the infamous effrontery of Dukes,
the murder of the aggrieved father,
and the subsequent death Of the VII
liam at the hands of a determined
brother,-even though there were no
insanity in it, there is much of that
which the moral sense of the people
denominates as justice. Even though
the law provides punishment for
the viOlater of purity, for the de-
strOyer of home happiness, those az.
grieved cannot feel that the penalty
in any way atones for the injury
done, and society at large, with that
impulsive warm heartedness which
so manifests itself when woman's
honor is assailed. is prone to wink at
offences which may be done in pro-
tecting or Furnishing the destroyer of
that honor. Technically James Mutt
is guilty of premeditated murder, but
in this instance the law furnishing
that crime is "better kept in the
breach than in the observance"

Only a Farmers Daughter.

One thousand dollars in cash was the
sum actually paid by a well-to do gen.
tleman in Montreal, Canada, for a re.
production at that place of the play,
Only Il Farmers Daughter" For
that night he extended Invitations to
his friends in general and to few in.
innate ones in particular. His case
had been so similar to that of Harry
Lennox in his domestic relations, save
the extreme to which the play writer
makes the latter go, that It transformed
him into new man just as the author
makes the result with Lennon. Nor
did the benefits stop here; there were
four other gentlemen who thus were
made aware of their drifting conditions
and who turned from the error of their
ways. This acturl experience is what
is here rendered as speaking for the
morale of the play. As originally pro-
duced there was vast difference in
the closing scenes, but to finale it as q
dream rom the ed act to the 9Th, has
been deemed by leading critics as the
most acceptable denouement.
This great American Drama, with the
original New York Cast, will be pro.
duced at Union Hall, Tuesday, Jan. 90.
