PLANT TREES ON APRIL 10.
State Superin tendent Higbee's Arbor Day Ci
lar to oSuperintendents.

State superin tendent Higbee's Arbor Day Circu-
lar to Superintendents.
The proclamation of Gov. fattison, desig-
mating April l6 as "Arbor Day" fand recon-
mending the citizens of the state to set out
trees and shrubbery on that day, is posted
in the postotlice and other efficient means
of directing public attention to it are being
employed But the best way to secure gen.
eral action in the matter Is that adopted by
State Superintendent Higbee, who is trying
to rally the children of the public schools to
cooperate in the matter. He has requested
all the county superintendents to impress
the subject upon their teachers, directors and
pupils and from his circular to them are
taken these hints, which are of general in
terest
Select mainly such trees for planting on
school grounds as grow well in your imme.
diate vicinity-hickory, walnut, sweet gum
dogwood, bnttonwood, ash, Eastwood or lin
den, birch, beech, locust, willows, tuliptree,
pines larches, firs, and others too numerous
TO mention. For shrubbery and vines-mock
orange, splfeas the burning bush, deutzia
lilacs, wigelia, hardy roses, honeysuckles,
others, which will give variety, and greatly
increase the attractiveness OF the school
buildings and its surroundings of grass-plat
and greenery.
AS TO the exercises OF Arbor Day, these
may be quite informal, if that shall seem
best-the essential purpose being the plant
ing Of trees, shrubs aud vines. But il will
be eminently proper, where arrangements
can readily be made for a aformal programme
TO make this also prominent feature The
reading OF selection from the Bible, prayer
by clergyman of the neighborhood read
ings, recitatlons and songs by the pupils, an
address by the teacher or other citizen of the
district Interested in the work of the day,
viii afford variety, and serve TO render the
occasion more interesting and impressive.
Let every teacher organize his school for
the work, and, in consultation with the di-
rectors, have the grounds properly prepared,
and holes ready for trees, and shrubs, and
flowers, and vines Solicit the cooperation
OF the whole neighborhood. Should the day
appointed prove inclement and unfit for the
work, postpone it until the following satur-
day.

SchOck's Mill Burned.

Tie old stone mill at Schock's station, on
the Pennsylvania railroad, was burned this
morning about halfpast 8 o'clock.
The building was occupied last night by a
gang of tramps as a bunking place, and it
is supposed they setit on fire, either accident
ally or Intentionally.
A dwelling house near by, owned by the
Pennsylvania railroad company, and occu-
pied by Charles Garrett, was set on fire by
sparks from the mill and the roof was badly
damaged.
Mr.. Garrett and hls family were sound
asleep at the time, and had they not been
awakened by Emanuel Stump, track fore
man, who discovered the fire, might have
lost their lives.

The Pacific slope.

The report on the internal commerce Of
The United States for the year 1885, pre-
pared by Mr.. Joseph Nimmo, ir., late chief
of the bureau Of statistics, and just given to
the press, is the first document ever issued
by the national government in regard to the
commercial, industrial, and transportation
interests Of the Pacific slope. California,
Oregon, and Washington territory are thus
brought near us, In so far as 1t has been
practicable to do so by clean-cut statements
of fact in regard to their growth, present
condition, and relations to the rest of the
United States and to foreign countries.
The acquisition of California from Mexico,
the discovery Of gold in the placers of the
Sacramento, and the admission Of that state
into the Union occurred during the brief
period from 1S4S to 1850. The thrOng of
early emigrGnts to that far-off shore was
composed almost entirely Of persons moved
ly such hopes and such imaginings as have
inspired the hearts Of men who during the
last four hundred years have yentured forth
in search Of III Dorado. But great changes
have since occurred. Agricultural interests
have sprung up which greatly exceed in
Importance the mining interests, The value
of the cereal product alone of California
during the year 1884 was $44,21O,Sjl us
against S1G,GOO,OOO, the value Of the gold
and silver product.
Oregon and Washington territory arc
rapidly looming up in Importance, and the
latter has for several years had the requisite
population to entitle her to admission iuto
the Union as n state.
The statistics of years past show that
while there have been changes in the pur-
suits of the people of the Pacific slope, yet,
upon the whole, there has been steady
and substantial progress in agriculture, in
manufactures, and in internal and foreign
commerce. The five transcontinental rail-
roads already constructed have brought
| that section into close communication with
| the eastern states, and have afforded to our
| fellow citizens Of the Occident markets for
their fruit, wines, wool, salmon, and other
more valuable products.

The cholera record of Spain for the past
two weeks has but one lesson for other
countries. 1t is fenrfully solemn admoni-
tion to cledQ up. There are localities in
Washington that are certainly susceptible
of sanitary improvement, although the gen.
eral condition Of the city in this regard is
excellent as compared with other cities.
There are blocks of crazy, tumble
down, old houses, defective in plumb
ing, deficient in water supply, and
crowded like shcepfolds with wretched
tenants. These should be sanitarily visited
and inspected, and whatever measures may
lie found necessary to put them in state Of
decent cleanliness should be adopted
Within two minutes walk Of our principal
thoroughfare there are hundreds of tene-
ments which invite pestiencc. The health
department has extraordinary authority,
and II should be used-with proper discre-
tion of course-but used so eiTectually as
to rid the community of serious menace.

WOULD it not be eminently proper for

If he has any, against Mr. Kellar's personal
character, instead of limiting that there are
such A garbled extract from the charge
of offensive partsanship is given In a
New York Times letter as part of alleged
personal charges. In the original statement
it was said, as illustrating Kellar's extreme
Republicanism, that he would not hesitate
TO insult men or women who differed from
him in political convictions. Mr., Cheno-
with, in his garbled extract makes Mr..
Kellar insult men and women as a steady

were.
