Its Various Departments and the
New Management.
Some of the gentlemen connected with
the new management of the REVIEW
might be called new residents in this
small great city, but one and all of
them are live American citizens, whose
sole purpose is to make Spokane their
permanent homes for the remainder of
their lives. Several of them have lived on
the Pacific slope for years, and in view of
the youth of this city they may even now
be considered as old citizens, they being
thoroughly identified with its interests.
All successful enterprises must be direct.

assistants may greatly aid him. But the
man at the helm is necessarily the one

THE EDIToR-IN.CHIEF.
Patrick Henry Winston, the editor-in.
chief of the REVIEW, was born in North
Carolina, August %, 1S47. He graduated
at the university of that state, June, 1867,
with first honors and without a rival. and
was admitted to the bar in June. 1868, at
the age of i20. His public life
thereafter is briefly as follows:
He removed to Pittsburg. Penn, Ia
practice law in 1870. having previously
married Miss Virginia Miller of that city:
represented Pittsburg in the Greeley con.
vention at Baltimore in 1879, together
with General George w. Cass, president

The next paper to see the light in Spo.

founder of tue REVIEW visited Eastern

pressed with the prospects Of Spokane.
then but very small place, that on his
return to California he decided to locate
at the Falls and engage in the printing
business. He arrived here early in April,
1885, expecting his plant to follow in
few days The arrangement was to issue
the first number of the REVIEW on the 1st
of May, but annoying delays over which
he had no control prevented the issue until
the 10th of that month. The REVIEW
"cau0ht on" so to speak, from the very
first number, and enjoyed very good
patronage.
The REVIEW was the first paper in this
country to take stock in the Cpur d'Alene
mining country, and was largely instru-
mental in attracting attention to that now
rich and famous region
During the excitement accompanying
the announcement of the discovery of gold
on Pritchard creek the REVIEW had an
enormous circulation throughout the
country.
In the spring of 1884 it was first issued
as an evening paper and Notwithstanding
the serious hard times that shortly after
wards followed, managed to continue as
daily, although the struggle to maintain
it as such was q serious one.
In the summer of 1885 the daily was
enlarged and changed to morning issue.
On the 1st of July, 1886. Mr.. II. I.
Brown purchased an interest in the RE.
view, the Associated Press dispatches
were secured and the paper enlarged. Be-
fore the end of the month Mr.. ii, w.
Greenburg was admitted into partnership
and the firm was known as the REVIEW
Publishing Company. 1t was enlarged or
contracted from time to time as the ext
gencies of the business demanded but in
the spring of 1888 assumed the size it
now is.
In the fall of 1888 Messrs. Brown &
Greenburg purchased Mr.. Dallam's inter-
est in the REVIEW and continued ITS pub
lication until April 1st this year, when
the office was purchased by Colonel p. H.
Winston. Willis Sweet. G. b. King and

CHAMELEONs OF FASHION.
Girls Who Ware Dresses I'm Harmony with
the q oOrs OF Nature.


One of the new whims is to make ones
clothes harmonze with the colors Of ma
ture. The chappie who peers over the
mound at the recumbent maiden isn't GER
tam for an instant that the single eyeglass
hasn't deceived him. for she is clad in a
sort of russell green so like the vegetation,
that, like tree toad of the changeable
hues, she matches the natural couch on
which she lies. Exquisitely artful is the
Lenox belle.
Shall we take a walk this morning ?"
asks Adolphus.
IF you please" replies Adelia. "Shall
1t be to Maple Grove or over the Knoll ?"
~ would prefer Maple Grove"
Then wait here ten minutes till |
change my gown"
The one you have on is lovely"
"Yes--for the Knoll. Its shades of
green harmonizes beautifully with the
ferns on the Knoll but it wouldn't do at
all for the yellow and red autumn leaves
of Maple Grove"
She therefore changed her dress to a
sset-brown, and went walking with a
xeet consciousness of esthetic propriety.
Another expression of this sensitive re-
gard for harmony In color is seen in what
are called arm-tops. The garment is like
a zouave jacket cut down to small dimen-
sions, so that it merely covers the shoul-
ders, upper arms and portion of the
body. A girl will have dozen Of them,
made in as many different colors, and she
selecting the hue with reference to the
particular colors in which she proposes to
figure. She will make quick change of
jackets many times day, so as always to
be sort of symphony in colors.--Lennox

printed sheets of every size and charater.
Additional machinery and new material
are to be added to the plant of the office,
and by the first OF the coming year, it will
rank with the best and most complete
offices in this territory.
IN CONCLUSION.
Altogether the REVIEW is satisfied with
its standing in the community. Ito circu.
lation has more than doubled within the
past two years, and it Is increasing daily.
The publishers aim to print all the i'm
portant news that they succeed is shown
by the well-6lled columns of the paper.
Its telegraphic dispatches are equal to
those OF any other paper, embracing the
associated press dispatches from Europe
and the east. An arrangement il about to
go into effect for publishing in our columns
the inter-Pacific coast dispatches from
Puget Sound to San Diego.
In the future as in the past the HEvIEw
will be found on the right side OF every
issue and will continue to work tor the
best interests of Spokane City, hs vast
surrounding sections of country, and the
territory at large.

Commenting, editorially, on the politi-
cal canvass in Washington territory, the
San Francisco Chronicle says: 1.-The only
surprise is that there are any democrats
in that territory, in view of the action of
the democratic house of representatives
upon the question of admission. That
body has stood squarely in opposition to
the undoubted right of Washington terri
tory to become state, and always will
occupy that position as long as there is
probability of its being republican state

MIR. Charles Case of Mt. Idaho, upon
returning from trip to Boise a few weeks
since, said he could tell when he crossed
the Idaho line by the increased thrift and
prosperity apparently in Washington ter

THE Fire Commissioners struck a snag in the Phoenix Engine House matter i'll the remonstrance presented to the Common Council last night and printed in another column. Their recommendation for new hook and ladder truck went on the table in the Board of Aldermen last evening and al together their efforts to improve the eff ciency of the fire departmnt avail nothing. The Common Council should consider the necessity for new hook and ladder truck, and the extravagant policy pursued in the St1ees Department should not be applied to our excellent volunteer fire department. Its efficiency is unquestioned but it can be greatly improved by the expenditure of a few thousand dollars. When one of the high buildings is in flames and fruitless at tempt is made to hoist ladder to the up per windows then the cry will go up tha, the department is not properly equipped, but public censure, instead of falling upo,. those who are at fault will descend upol the heads of the luckless chief and tn, Fire Commissioners.

SECOND HAND FALSE TEETH.

Quite a Trade Driven in the Artificial
 AGjuncts of tho Human Frame.
 One of the hoarlcst chestnuts in the circus clowns and minstrel mans barrel of stock jokes is that which relates to second hand false teeth. Any allusion to secold hand false teeth is to this day. certain to elicit a guffaw from most of the audience, yet there's quite a trade driven in these artificial adjuncts of the human frame, unless the advertise ments play us false It seems to have begun in London and to have reached New York, as most London fashions do, @ year or two late. In one advertisement I read that Mr. and Mrs. X, wardrobe purchasers to any amount, have an unlimited commission to purchase for ready money" any kinds of ladies', gentlemen's and chldren's left off articles; window curtains and every descrip- tion of household linen, etc.. full value given for artificial teeth"
 And in another column of the same paper, under cut of set of worries that grinned Eu:norously at me, as if appreciating the joke, this pathetic appeal:
 ''Old artificial teeth bought. Persons wish ing to receive full value should apply to the manufacturing Dentists instead of to ward robe buyers. If forwarded by post the value per return"
 The sets, am told, are broken up, and the teeth used over again in new plates. What wears out about artificial teeth is the plates The teeth themselves remain sound, and may be made to serve any number of owners, which must be an agreeable reflection for persons who are compelled to substitute art for nature ill these very necessary accesso- ries of the complete human body One thing that struck me in the matter was the enor- nous demand there must be for artificial teeth when it can be found profitable to trade in them in this way. But this is pro- gressive and inventive age, and nothing is wasted, from second hand building mate rials to worn out shoes, for see by scien- tiic weekly that process has been invented and put in practice for extracting vinegar from scrap leather and old boots, harness or whatever else leather is made part of- Alfred Tumble in New York News,

A Poodle for Hunting Purposes.

"A we'll sheared poodle" said John R. Thompson, old hunter, 'can be trained for field work so that he will excel the best Irish or Gordon setter, in pointing, flushing and retrieving. He can, if his coat is kept close, go through thicket and bramble with out difficulty, and as he is usually intelligent, he can be taught very readily. I have a poodle that have used on my own place dcwn in Maryland, where lost at least half a dozen good sette1s by accidentally shooting them while they were flushing the game. Now my poodle seems to know the danger and how to avoid it. He will flush covey of partridge without the least danger to him. self, and to tho complete satisfaction of the hunter. Tho poodle is the field dog for me- New York Evening Sun.

THOSE Eastern people who have been going to California in such multitudes for some time past are dying off like sheep. There seems to be great mistake some where in the popular notion that going to that country will give every man new lease of life, and thousands of those who went have already found it out. Many of those who still have life enough are taking themselves back home, while good many others, more unfortunate, are being taken home in boxes. N
