Our genial postmaster, Mr. Fouts,
is getting along well, he grows fat on

one. He is most obliging and willing
to accommodate all.
Thanksgiving Day passed off very
quietly here. Turkey and goose shoot

Divine services were held in the Meth

by the Reverends Clyde and Keeper.
We understand that Tom OIiara,
better known rs "Old Tom" here. has
rented Roundtrec's former store and
contemplates running boot and shoe

THE Argus favors Mr.. r. o. Dunbar
for the next Republican candidate for
Congress. 1t looks very much as if
that party would have very little to say
in future contests in this Territory
and that is probably the reason why
our friend is prompted to speak that
little now. Mr.. Dunbar possesses very
few of the essential requisites for the
position. He might make an average
Delegate with Billy Hughes for men,
tor, the accommodating gentleman
who was his sheet anchor in the last
Assembly.

The Yakima Signal notes what we
presume is fact that at every general
election since the creation of the Terri
tory and King county, a period of over
30 years, the candidate for Delegate
elected was the one to whom King
county, gave its support. This it
claims has given birth to the assertion
" AS goes King county so goes Wash
ington Territory" Let us hope, how.
ever, that the Territory will not follow
in the footsteps of King county too
closely hereafter. Her delegation in
the last Legislature is responsible for
the unwise and profigate enactments
ON the present statute-book. That
county this year elected man to the
Legislature, who, last Sunday, it is
said, harangued twelve men who
were going to Blakely by the steamer
Michigan to work at standard wages
ten hours a day. He urged the man
not to go; that they should stand to-
gether and fight everything that wore
the. mantle OF capital" Besides this
King county's record for mob<rule
few years ago, and martial law
last February, are too fresh in
the memory of law-abiding people
for them to san ,tion the idea that :" As
goes King county so goes the Terri
tory"

OLYMPIA, FRIDAY EEEIlNG, DEG. 3, 1856.
\ Point Considered.


The late decision ui Judge Turner
sustaining the Local Option Act, was
published i'll part in last week STAND
ARD. A material portion, it seems,
however, has been omitted hv the pa
per from which it is copied, which
considers the question that arose dur
ing the agitation at the time of the
vote, regarding the effects Of the Gov
eminent license on the sale of liquors.
Many then held that the Territorial
law, in precincts where prohibition
might carry, would be in conflict with
the Will OF Congress. 1t seems that
there Is no ground for such ii POSITION
The Judge, quotes the original act OF
Congress as follows: No license
hercinbefore provided for shall be con-
strueu to authorize the commencement
OF continuation OF any trade, business,
occupation or employment therein
mentioned, within any State or Terri
tory of the United States in which it is
or shall be specially prohibited by the
llws thereof" etc. In 1866, saws the
Judge, this section was amended bv
emitting the word Territories" and
counsel have based an argument upon
the undisputed fact that Congress
may lcgislate as it pleases for the Ter
ritorics, subject only to the Constitu-
ton. While this is true, Congress has
not specifically made any exception of
the Territories, in the provisions of
said law, but in Section $40 of the
revised Statutes has declared the word
State" to include the word Territor-
les whenever necessary to carry out
the provisions of law; but whether
this be so or not the omission cannot
have the effect claimed for it. If, as
decided by the Supreme Court of the
United States, the license of the Uni
ted States grants no right or privilege
to those holding it, its operation can
not be enlarged by any such negative
method of legislation. You cannot
by taking away from perfectly neu-
trail law add anything to it. Subtract
nothing from nothing and nothing re-
MAINS" The Judge holds, therefore,
that the licenses to sell liquors, under
the laws of the United States, are
merely receipts for taxes, or permits,
and give no authority to conduct the
business contrary to law.

IT seems little strange to the cas-,
ual observer that all labor disturb
ances III this Territory requiring the in
fermentation of troops invariably occur
about the time that the official heads OF
our hold-over Republican officers arc
on the block, and the knife is adjusted
for fall. Next Monday Congress
meets, and the Senate will he in scs-
sion to consider Il batch of appoint
ments. This seems to have been con-
sldered an opportunc moment for
those who have been enriched by the
lax administration of the land laws
under Republican administrations to
put Il spoke in the Governors wheel
and by electric flash troops are ordered
out to suppress instruction. 1t is
hardly probable, however, that Bonn
bastes Furioso will again declare mar.
tiai law, as it proved very unsafe
bridge III some respects, and although
1t served temporary purpose was al
together too frail to withstand the
weight OF the Governors chariot in
which he fondly hoped to ride to the
National Capital.

The Yakima Republican says it is
understood that the Democratic party
was not supporter of the woman
suffrage law. Probably the under
standing, in this case, is father to the
thought, for if the several votes in the
Legislature are any indication, the
honors were about evenly divided.
This was true every session the matter
was submitted for consideration, and
some of the best speeches made in
favor of woman's acknowledgements
were from the Democratic side Of the
house. In Colorado, the suffrage bill
was passed 10y a Legislature unani-
mously Democratic. Confinc, your
self to the record, Mr.. Republican.
