COUNTY INDEBTEDNESS.

AS will be seen by the official call of
the county treasurer for the redemption
of county warrants, there is now money
IN the treasury to redeem all the war
rants issued on the current expense
fund for 1856, and also warrant No. l .
issue of 1887. Outside of the funded
indebtedness-now about 0,0O0-the
county is behind only one year, and if
the same rate OF redemption is kept up
in the future, and no heavy criminal
business happens to upset things, we
ought to have the county paving cash
for current expenses in the fall of 1890.
The great item of expense and the
principal cause of county indie ebtedness
Is the administration of justice. We
have in this county two terms of dist
rict court year where one is too many.
The coming spring term, for instance,
Is an unnecessary expense to the tax
payers, as there is nothing pending that
is worth calling grand jury together
to investigate, and only one or two di-
vorces and other unimportant civil
suits, all of which might as well lie
ground out at one grist at one half the
expense to the tax payers. In the Sep
tember term of 1886, nothing was done ;
and in March, 1887, the judge did not
even put in an appearance, but il cost
the county several hundred dollars all
the same. Last September the docket
was cleared of all the cases which had
accumulated since the spring of 1885,

THE MANITOBA RAILROAD.
Conjectures, Opinions, and Speculations Con-
eerning its Route to Tide -Water--Another
Great Loan-Other Railroad Movements,

Leading officials of the Manitoba
railroad company say little as to the
future plans of that road, but to the or
dinary observer it is evident that such a
great railroad system must look to the
Pacific coast for terminus, and that It
will not stop at Butte is a dead GER
tainty. Indeed, the letter which we
received from president Hill last sum-
mer and published in the F. P. stated
explicitly that our statements concern
ing the advantages of the Clearwater
route, and the rich resources of the
Clearwater country, should be investi-
gated. Consequently as the time draws
near when renewal of work will be
possible, speculation is rife as to what
route will be adopted in its extension
westward. The Butte papers advance
the opinion that the road to that place
Will be made the main line and that it
will be extended westward this season.
1t seems certainty that the road will
go to Missoula, and whether it will then
continue on down Clark's fork of the
Columbia, thus paralelling the Northern
Pacific track from Missoula by way of
Pen d'Oreille to Spokane. or crossing to
the Columbia river over the Mullan
pass of the C9ur d'Alene range. or
whether it will cross the Bitter Root
and descend the Clearwater to Lewiston
is still subject for speculation. We
have always insisted that the Clear.
water is the best and most direct route.
that it is, the natural highway across the
continent, and that on the Clearwater
slope is larger scope of new country
with greater diversity of undeveloped
resources than any other country Of
like extent on this coast. If the Mani
toba can be induced to forego the tenn
porary advantage of small local traffic
on the other routes. they open for them
selves great empire of country full of
dormant resources, on the most direct
east and west route across the divide.
Meanwhile it is whispered in railroad
circles that the Manitoba road will be
completed to Missoula in August, and
from what is known of the activity of
the Manitoba people in railroad build.
ing, the track is likely to be laid into
the heart of the Clearwater basin before
snowfall. We hope so.

Olympia.

The Partisan has lucid intervals, in
which it occasionally expresses an opin-
ion that will bear commentator. In
an article last week intended to show
that the prosperous condition of local
affairs the past year has not been the
result of speculation combinations,
but is Il healthy, permanent growth,
it says:
Olympia has the best and most desirable
site for a city on Puget Sound. 1t is at the
head of the Sound. Ii is surrounded by the
best timber land. farming land, hop land and
coal land in the Territory. 1t is the nearest
point on the Sound to Portland, the railway
center of the Northwest Coast 1t is the ma
tural point for the trade of the East TO enter the
Chehalis valley and Grays Harbor country. 1t
has every advantage over its neighbors except
energy, enterprise and confidence OF its own
people. They are waking up and when they
are fully awake they will surprise their friends
and disappoint their enemies with the push
with which they will get to the 'front.'"
Every word of the quotation is true.
Olympia possesses to-day more natural
elements of prosperity than any other
point on the Sound 1t is only ques-
ton of time when they will become
known, and our thriving little city will
begin at once to dispute precedence
with her now more favored sisters
" Energy, enterprise and confidence,
us our contemporary remarks, have
been lamentably wanting in our peo-
pie; but the present activity betokens
brighter results and there is not the
slightest doubt but that popular con
fdence is daily Strengthening in the
speedy development of many live en-
terprises.
1t will be observed that all projected
improvements are based upon an ide:
of continued progress and permanent
stability. Each enterprise OF this
character makes the labor of restoring
confidence an easier task, and it vii
not be long until the croakers them
selves will begin to feel the enlivenins

gress. Then with united counsel'

A New BRICKKILN.-For some time
past, parties interested in the manu-
facture of brick on large scale have
completed plans for future orer-
alton ON McNeil's Island. Last jan
uary, Mr.. ]. N. Berry went east, for
the purpose of purchasing the neces-
sary machinery. Experts from Taco
ma and Portland claimed the clay Sec
ond to none in the Territory, where
upon a joint-stock company was or
ganized, and operations will soon be
commenced. The capital stock of the
company is, we understand, $4,000,
being principally composed of Tacoma
capital. They have purchased Mr..
Berry's farm, are making arrange
ments to build a wharf, and will soon
be sending McNeiPs Island clay to
Olympia, Tacoma, and other points in
the shape of brick of finest quality.

A Natural Result.

SEDALIA, Mo-, Feb. u.-L4t night there was

with long silked blond hair and whose nose,
mouth and ears resembled those of u dog The

time feature of Barrett's Circus. The mother
10 only sixteen years old.
The above ungainly morsal, clipped
from an exchange, plainly foreshadows
the verifcation of a prediction made
in general terms, last summer. by a
gentleman Of this city. While the
town was being painted red by the
bill pastors and everybody was on the
qui rire in regard to Jo-Jo, the dog
faced boy, several gentlemen were
discussing, in the STANDARD office, the
merits and dement's of Barrett's pros
pective show, and especially the
questionable propriety of publicly ex-
hibiting such monstrosities as are so
often hawked about the country.
Among other things, the prediction
was made that, in the course OF time,
other and veritable dog-faced babies
would begin to make their appearance
in those districts where Jo-Jo had ex-
hibited his strange physiognomy.
While further comment is not neces-
sary, it may he added that, SO long as
society wilfully ignores the plainest
teachings of physiological science,
Just SO long will monstrous births and
frightful deformities continue to
shock the world.
