Slayer said there is no occasion for
fear. The patents would have to be asked
for by the railroads, and in the issue of
such patents, all lands even suspected of
being mineral in character are excluded.
The parties interested in the matter are
asked to furnish the general land office
information as to the mineral character of
the lands selected by the company.
Articles of incorporation were filed on
Thursday with the territorial secretary of

association are the establishment of a
printing plant IN the city of Helena and
the issuance of a weekly newspaper to be
known as 1.-The Sunday Record" Also is
contemplated the conducting of a general

ance of daily and weekly newspapers, the

search parties which are looking for the
missing man, Henry Williams, have not
yet found his body. Mr.. W. 2. Stedman,
the man for whom Williams worked dur
Ing the last month, assisted all day yes
terday in the search. Mr.. Stedman arrived
in town to-day, but we did not have an
opportunity Of interviewing him. We un-
derstand, however, he tried to dlssuade
Williams from his determination to walk
to town, telling him that the distance was
too great and the weather entirely too Sc

Williams fate. He must have walked un-
til he was exhausted, found himself off
the road and lost, became bewildered, and
finally succumbed to the inevitable and
laid down in some lonely coulee to die.
Henry or Hank Williams is said to be
man about 40 years old, has been in the
noun n.ains for many years and is we'll
known in the mining camps Of the territory.

Area Of Washington Territory.

Washington Territory has an area
greater than the New England States,
and possesses infinitely greater advan-
tages by sea and land than does New
England. 1t has millions of acres OF
most productive lands; it has glorious
inland waterways, it has Puget Sound
in which all the worlds ships might
rendezvous in safe harbor and not be
crowded it has glory of forest lands
which no Eastern man can compre-
hend, and it has mineral wealth which,
in the next twenty years will cause
the fair land to glitter with mighty
cities and great manufactures. It
should have Statehood at once, that
the sovereign protection that goes with
Statehood might be over all its indus
tries and place guard upon its mar
velous and undeveloped wealth. 1t is
going to be land of plenty, and in
the hands of the brave people who pos
sess it, no other spot in America holds
a more enchanting promise to the man
who hopes by clear brains and strong
arms to forge out grand inheritance
for his children.-Kane's Illustrated
Vest.

A Bad Omission.
lUnion.1

lUulOn.1
A careful estimate of the appropria-
tions made and current expenses of
the Territory for the next two years
shows total of about $65O,OOO. There
is no money in the Treasury, the
Territory is a hundred thousand
dollars in debt. It's income from all
sources during the next two years,
provided the laws to tax railroads pro-
duces as much as is claimed for any
bill introduced, will not exceed four
hundred thousand dollars, leaving
deficiency of quarter of million.
As the law now stands, there is no
authority for funding this indebted
ness. 1t exists and will continue to
exist in the form of Territorial war
rants "not paid for want of funds"
and drawing ten per cent. per annum
interest. As a natter Of cou rse, men
who have money to loan will find the
warrants Of the rich Territory of
Washington paying inve stments and,
as another matter of course, they will
combine to give them market value
below their face value, and thus in
crease the return they will obtain on
their investment. As an inevitable
result the Territory will be called on
to pay more for every kind of material
bought, the benevolent, educational
and reformatory institutions, will suffer
and the next Legislature will be con-
fronted with the problem of very
large floating debt to be provided for.
If the last Legislature had passed an
excellent bond bill which was prepared,
it would have reduced the interest on
the public debt at least one-half, and
saved to the Territory $780, 900 or more
yearly, and postponed indefinitely a
heavy increase in the tax levy for
Territorial purposes. The Legislature
did not do this because there were
influences at work in and around it
which were interested in making
money by dealing in Territorial war
rants and which prevented the intro
duction of any bill to provide for
funding the existing and prospective
debt of the Territory. The Legisla-
ture adjourned without providing the
means of paying the many appropria-
tions it made save Territorial warrants
mot paid for want of funds" ard
drawing ten per cent. interest, and it
will merit and receive the execrations
of the people.
Washington standard. [volume] (Olympia, Wash. Territory) 1860-1921, 1888-02-17
The Territorial Debt.

The Port Townsend Argus justly
complains of the shape in which the
Territorial debt was left by the Legisla-
ture. That body appropriated so large
an amount of money that heavy de-
felt in the treasury is inevitable. It
will be necessary for the Territory to
raise funds in some manner, but no
way of raising them has been pro-
vided. Under the circumstances, the
Argus fears, it will be necessary to re-
sort to the expedient Of issuing Ter
ritorial warrants which will be re-
ceived by investors only at figures
much below their face value.
1t is certain that some expedient
will have to be resorted to in order to
meet the heavy drafts which the Leg
istature has made upon the treasury.
The legislators made great mistake
in adjourning without making pro-
vision for the funding Of the debt
which they had created. If such pro-
vision had been made, the Territory
could have placed bonds at a rate of
interest much lower than that which
it would be compelled TO pay upon
warrants, and it is scarcely necessary
to say that the former arrangement
would have been in every way the
more satisfactory.
The action of the Legislature was not
unlike that of the mon who run up
big bills and then "jump the town"
without making any provision for
their payment. 1t made appropria-
tions many thousand dollars in excess
of the revenue of the Territory, and
adjourned without providing a method
of avoiding an ugly and troublesome
deficit. A legislature which makes
heavy appropriations should take the
trouble to provide for the funding of
the debt which it creates.

Hints for the Housewife.

A much-worn broom is very hard
ON the carpet.
If possible, keep one utensil sacred
to onions alone.
Mustard draughts spread with sweet
oil will not blister the skin, even if
left on all night.
Never permit q white marble mantel
to disfgure an otherwise tasteful room.
Cover it with . draped mantel board.
Do not allow the spice boxes to be
come disorderly. Have each division
carefully tabled and permit no mixing
of the contents.
Don't ask q convalescent If he would
like this or that to eat and drink, but
prepare the delicacies and present
them in tempting way.
Honey sometimes has an onion
flavor, from the bees gathering from
helds OF onion seeds. Ii allowed TO
set few weeks the unpleasant favor
will soon pass off.
A starch superior to gloss starch for
calico and cambria can be made Of
-four by wetting the -four up with very
warm water day before you need the
starch; add boiling water and cook
when you want to use it.
Floral decorations are always desira-
ble on the dining table. If nothing
else is possible, simply a growing
plant without blossoms from your
window plants adds touch which
one always finds wanting when there
is no green thing on the table.
