SPOKANE FALLS, FEB. 23, 1888.

In another column is published a
card over the signature Of w. II. Tay-
lor, Esq, peremptorially ann Ouncing
that he will not be u candidate for re-
election to the Office of mayor ut the
approaching municipal election. He
sets forth his reasons for the decision
which are good and sufficient ones,
He means just what he says, and the
Acid Is now an open one, for with Mr..
Taylor as u candidate there was little
show for anyone else. The many
friends of Mr., Taylor will deeply regret
this determination on his part, as his
record in the Office has been such u
oreditable one that IL was generally
1elt that it would be very unwise to
change the administration. Mr.. 'Tay-
lOr goes out OF office in poss ssion of
the respect and confidence of the pub
lie, the business public, that part Of
the public vitality interested in the
honest and economic administration
Of local affairs, He was faithful to the
best interests OF the city, OF which he
il 30 proud. He gave much of his
time and personal attention to the
duties of the Office, more, indeed, than
hs could afford TO- He encouraged
every movement that in the remotest
degree tended to promote the welfare
OF the city and general public. He
believed in perfecting all OF the
branches OF municipal government.
As an executive officer he was firm
and fair to everyone. With all due
respect to his predecessors it can be
honestly said that he has made the
best and most active mayor the city
has ever had, and it will be difficult to
find man who will devote so much of
his time to the place and give such
general satisfaction as he has. Mr..
Taylor has the proud satisfaction in
leaving public Office of knowing that
he carries the good will and respect OF
the best part of the community, and
furthermore that he could have the Of
fee again if he so desired.

s Self-Reiiance.

Editor PICAYrNE: - Self-rcliance makes us more independent to tho extent that the farmer relies on his own excrtion to raise his living at home so that the extortiOn of supply dealers will not affect him. By re- lying more on our own energy and judgment we will lessen urindebied- ness and free ourselves from the crisp of the money lender. The compliance by Congress of some cf the so-callcd Wheel demands would no doubt advance the general well fare of the people, but, if we. as in- dividuals, don't make certain de- mands on ourselves and compel our selves to execute them We will have our own Wheel stuck fast in the mud-hole. The agitators of the U. l.. P. would put us in power and have the government issue money in sufficient quantities for all purposes (bat who is to be the judge ahout the : quantity they don't tell us) and loan the same to the people, bat more sclf-reliance will make Us pay little attention to such illusive theories. for they must deceive the people. Selt-reliance will make Isuch decep- ton comparatively harmless. The Dispatch winds up q piece headed "Our Cartoons. thus: Frame these cartoons and hang them on the wall. Study them. Explain them to the dear children. The moral of these cartoons. as we understand them. is: MonopOlists of all kinds are the powers that be. who have been put in power by one or the oIh- CT of the old parties, and the govern mcnt officers. executive and lcgisla- tive. with the help of so-called hoss- cs. make the voters perpctnate these powers against their interest and will. Let us tell the children that
 we live under the best government on the glohc that we are the hest governed people of the age: that the Dispatch \ cartoons are lies and slan- ders.
 If we persuade our hpvS to initiate such men 2s Hon. T. (. McRae and Col W. F.. Atkinson. in their indus trial and temperate habits. and dis regard the vulgar teachings of the Dispatch's cartoons. we will leave the country ill good hands after we are gone. (. MorTz.
