CENTRALIA ITEMS.

Correspondence of the Washington Standard.
Once more the week has rolled
round and again we find ourself refer
ring to the notes of the past few days
to contribute the news of this push
ing, energetic town to the STANDARDS
columns.
First of all we must be allowed to
correct an actual lie, which was print
ed in the Partisan last week. Mr.
Butterworth said the town was all for
Bradshaw, when his conscience told
HIM tina; there were but Il paltry half
dozen who will vote for him for the
sake of the Republican platform.
Were the Peoples candidate not in the
field, this town would be solid for
Voorhees,.
Last evening the large hall was well
filled with an attentive audience to
listen to three learned gentlemen, dis
coursing on the great questions of the
day. Rev. Thompson spoke for two
hours in his usual comic way. He is
too well known to need any comments
on his address. All were well pleased,
even the old Democrats scratched
their heads and joined in the fun
Mr.. Forest, of the firm Forest &
Welty, lawyers, also spoke few mo-
ments defining his position as candi-
date for Representative. Judge Ash
more, candidate for Probate Judge,
said but a few words, but every sylla-
bic had a meaning and made very
forcible impression here.
Rev. Thompson will preach here on
Sunday afternoon in the Methodist
ch urch
Mr.. Lank, Of the City Market, is do
ing rushing business. Finding the
attendance on the shop and outside
too much, he has engaged first-class
butcher to help him. A good supply
of vegetables, fruits, and all kinds of
fresh meat always on hand.
Mr.. Novy has got in another large
supply of fancy articles, lamps, Ian
terms and glassware.
Mr.. Null has fine supply of good,
solid, substantial furniture, that it
would he to the advantage of the pub
lie to see for themselves.

A CONTRAST ON PERSONAL QUALIFI-
FICATIONs.-The contest in the Sew
enth Council District, composed of the
counties of Clarke, COwlitz and Lewis,
is between j. B. LaDu, Democrat, and
J. r. Thompson, the political parson
now in charge of the Presbyterian
Church in Vancouver. A choice be-
tween these two men is not difficult
for anybody who knows them, but
strangers may be misled by the cleri-
cal cloak, into an endorsement of the
latter where he is unknown. Mr..
Thompson lived in this community
many years, and is here quite as well
known in the role of Il scheming poll
tician as he is by his protested life call
ing. While protesting to be a follower
of the one whose life example taught
humility and love, he is here known
as one of the most violent and vindic-
tive of party henchmen and unscrupu-
lOus of partisan demagogues. Mr.. La
Du is man whose professions are
honest and sincere. He wears no cloak
to hide moral deformity. He is true
Democrat and will not sell his birth
right for mess of pOttage.

The telegraph announces that Ia
coma is hereafter to have Vice Presi
dent of the Northern Pacific reside al
Tacoma. At meeting of the Direc
tors in New York, last week, General
Adna Anderson was selected to fill that
position, in place of James B. Will
liams, who resigned to become assist
ant to the President. The Ledger say.
of the appointment: General Anderson
is, and has for number OF years, beer
Chief Engineer of the Northern Pa
ciic railroad, enjoying the distinction
of having been in charge OF the con
struction department while nearly the
entire line was under construction
He was the successor as Chief Engin.
eer of General w. Minor Roberts, who
located the line OF the Northern Pa
cifie railroad, and who resigned his
position with this company at the
close of 1878 to accept an appointment
under the Emperor of Brazil at a sal.
airy of $4,000 per annum. General
Anderson has therefore been connected
with the Northern Pacific for nearly
eight years. He ranks us one of the
ablest engineers of the country and a
man having executive ability of high
order.

THE Secretary of War has forbidden
the issue of permits to land liquor in
Alaska for use in medical, mechani-
cal, or scientific purposes" but the
Collector of Customs has been in
structed that he may permit the entry
of wines "for sacramental purposes"
on presentation of proof that it is in
tended for no other purpose. Itsecms
somewhat inconsistent to doubt the
integrity of one class of citizens, who
may be honestly engaged in profess
sional work requiring the use of alco-
hol as drug, and to place implicit
faith in another who profess to use it
as a symbol of something for which it
has not the slightest similitude. fthe
Secretary wished to close up all the
loop-holes he should have made no dis
elimination in what may be regarded
as worthy uses of alcoholic liquors.

GIVE US A REsT.-Every Republican
paper that has come to hand the past
week contains copy of the CORY map
issued by the Republican Central Com
mittee, showing in wildly red colors
the amount of land that the Dolph
bill would have forfeited if it had be-
come q law. This color seems to be q
favorite one of the g. o. p, since it has
served such an excellent purpose in
times past as means for arousing the
ire of its followers when daubed on the
typical neither garment, and this prob
ably led to its use on the war-map of
the present campaign. The back of
the map contains the speech of Mr.. J.
G. Haines, Republican candidate for
Delegate to Congress.
Washington standard. [volume] (Olympia, Wash. Territory) 1860-1921, 1886-10-29
The Issue Fairly Presented.

1t is with unfcigned pleasure that
the STANDARD endorses the candidacy
ui such men as Capt. Henry Rh"edrr,
the Democratic nominee for Council
man in the Twelfth District. Besides
ing IA pioneer resident vi the Tenn
! tory, he is a man eminrntlv fitted ty
education and experience To truly
represent constituency composed
/ largely of the muscle and Drawn OF
/ the country. He was a member OF
/ the lower branch of the Assembly six
years ago, and it was mainly through
/ his efforts that gross earnings bill
was defeated at that session. He is a
! true friend to labor. and three years
ago discharged the Chinese that had
been employed on his farm i'll What
com county, perceiving as he did, that
the encouragement they were receiv-
ing was only depriving so many white
lllSIl vi tllt VI ilNSii7
hood, and he has ever since pursued
the policy that he then outlined for
his own action.
The qualifications of Mr.. Garfield
the opponent of Mr.. Rhoeder, are in
marked contrast with this record He
came to the Territory a few months
ago as political and speculative adj
venturer. He is a violent Republican
partisan, and was the chief adviser OF
Gov. Squire i'll the Seattle-Tacoma
Chinese troubles, before the issue of
the martial law proclamation. While
claiming to be resident of Whatcom
county, he has never made it his per-
manent abiding place, nor has he
thought enough of the land of his
adoption Qor speculative purposes) to
bring his family to the backwoods. Is
such man Il fit representative of
those who have by hard and persistent
labor reclaimed the wilds and brought
our Territory to its present prosperous
condition? Will the sturdy yeomanry
ignore the claims of Il man who has by
so many years of hardship and toll
won their regard and earned right to
their undivided support? We believe
not. Ii there is any honesty or sim
ccrity in the professions of the labor
party, they will vote to man for
Henry Rhoeder. They will never have
better opportunity to excmplify the
power of the ballot on a question of
well-detined principle. The two can
didates possess every requisite to draw
the line closely between. capital and
labor, corporate influence and the ca
pability of the masses to unite for their
common protection.

GALL AMONG THE RosEs."-Who
would not be Emperor of China, if the
following report, going the rounds Of
the press, is true? "He sleeps with
eight landmarks sitting upon his bed,
and sixteen others underneath the
bed, all of them girls from the Nu-wu-
flu. Their function is to keep watch
over his Majesty, and they are not al
lowed to sneeze, cough, spit, or utter
any other sound" The question very
naturally arises, How do they keep
from snoring?
