Olympia lively and progressive city,
and that when the proper time arrives
the people of Seattle and King county
will show her just appreciation, by
giving Olympia an overwhelming ma

Capital. "A little opposition" he af-
trmed, us outwardly expressed, but
only by some real estate schemers,
who have properly in some other towns,
and think by so opposing Olympia,
they may awaken boom in their

majority of our thinking people will
not forget your city, when called in a
public manner to express themselves at
the polls in the coming election. 1t is

can refrain from an affirmative express

road land in Washington and Montana
Territories, and have placed several par
ties of engineers in the field to Law ont
the lines of canals ready for construc-
ton.
The Plan was originated by Chief
Engineer J. d. Mcintyre, irrigation en-
gineer of Montana, who is also chief
engineer of the present company.
The most active field of operation, at
present, will be in the Yakima country
in Washington Territory, and between
the West Gallatin and Madison rivers
in Montana. In each of these local
tiles, the company has brought all the
land within radius of many miles. and
will build at once hundred miles of
canal.
1t is understood that the water and
land both will be thrown open to pur-
chase by settlers, as soon as the canals
are built. In Yakima county alone
several hundred men and teams will be
employed on the work of construction.
AS an indication of the magnitude of
the scheme, it is only necessary to say
that the company has purchased all of
the railroad company's land between
North Yakima and the Columbia river.
The benefits which will accrue to
North Yakima and the Yakima coun-
try, are estimated to be greater than
would be gained by the building of a
railroad, as several hundred thousand
acres of land will be opened for cult. !

pondent of the Landmark. We do not
think he had the authority Of SENATOR
Ransom for making the appeal. In
fact We are persuaded that, whether in
debt or not, the communication must
have been mortifying to the Senate .
The editors in the State are in this
delemma: The correspondent of the
Landmark, who claims to be friend
of SENATOR RANSOM, asks them to help
raise fund to pay SENATOR Ransom )
debts; other friends of the Senator say
that he owes no debtss In this dilemma
to Do may be the rock Scylla, and NOT
TO Do may be the whirlpool Chary
AS for the Chronicle, if SENAroR
RANSOM owes any debts, we are sorry
for him. We know what it is and he
has our sympathies We hope that
his creditors will be lenient to him
until, by economy, he can save enough
out of his salary to pay them. We are
sure tn 1t he will resent being placed
before North Carolina as medicant.
But on the other hand, if Senator
Ransom owes no debts, we offer him
our sincere congratulations. If he

WHY MEN FAIL.

Few men come up to their highest
measure of success Some fail through
tlmldity or lack of nerve They are
unwilling to take the risks incident to
life. and fail throus b fear in venturing
on ordinary duties They lacs pluck.
Others fail through imprudence lack
of discretion, care or sound judgment.
They overestimate the future, and
bulid air-castles, and venture bevond
their depth, and fail and fall. Others,
again, fall throu h lack Of application
and perseverance. They begin with
good resolves, but soon get tired of
that. and want change, thinking they
can do much better at something else.
Thus they fritter life away, and succeed
at nothing. Others waste time and
money, and fill through ruinous habits;
tobacco, whisky and beer spoil them
for business, drive their best customers
from them, and scatter their prospects
of success. Some fail for want of
brains, education and fitness for their
calling; they lack a knowledge of
human nature, and of the motives that
actuate men. They have not qualified
themselves for their occupation by
practical education. Supple
4uent.

POLL TAX PREREQUISITE.

Now that North Carolina is consid-
ering the expediency of making the
payment of the poll-tax a prerequisite
to voting, the Petersburg Index-Appeal
is moved to say:
1T was the baldest sort of demagog-
ism that abolished this very reasonable
and just qualification in Virginia
The man who is not able to contribute
a dollar to the Commonwealth ought
not to complain if he is denied the
right to manage the affairs of a gov
ernment whose expenses are borne by
Others"
What the Index Appeal says is sound
but does not our contemporary know
that the politicians and office seekers
not the suffragans-paid large part
of tie poll-tax in this state? This fact
caused the repeal Of the act. and that
is one of the things to be considered by
the North Carolina Legislature The
experience of Virginia is that the prac
tical working of law which annually
put into the public school fund hun
dred dollars more than that fnnd had
previously received, gave rise to an
agitation which, reinforced by addi-
tional issues, resulted in the repeal of
the law, to say nothing Of Other chan
ges which were made at that period,
which we're preaching il their effects.

THE GOOD NAME.

when you enter life,
And mingle with its throngs,
You share it's comforts and it's strife
Its pleasures and it's wrongs;
But that no blot may blur your name,
In any time or place,
Remember this-to prize your name
More highly than your face.
Thy beauty's like the lovely flower,
Whose sweets attract the bees
That care not for it's matchless pOw'r
The human eye to please.
And when admirers round thee bow,
Weigh we'll their words to see
If tendsr phrase and prOtfered vow
Are not base f1attery.
True men believe that woman's truth
And trusting love endure;
And what to them the charms of youth
Where woman's heart is pure
Then, maiden, to thy beauty fame,
And to thy wondrous grace.
Let men add this: Her own good name
Fresh beauty gives her face
Exchange.

SENATOR RANSOM AND HIS
DEBTS.
Estate Chronicle.

IF man could only be philosopher
in the midst of political excitement he
could find mine of infinite interest and
humor in the before and after utteran-
ces of the friends of candidates for office.
During the sharp and hotly contested
Senatorial campaign which resulted in
SENATOR RANsOM's return, the oppo-
nents of that distinguished gentleman
charged that SENATOR RANSOM dill not
pay his debts. Some of his friends
denied this charge, adding that so
prompt ip paying was he that he had
even paid debts that were out of date.
Others of his friends said, admitting
him to be in debt, it was honorable in
him to be poor and in debt. rather than
to become rich as had many of the Sen
ators in the corrupt days following the
war. Others again defended him on
the ground that most great men were
in debt, citing the cases Of Clay and
Webster. This was all BEFORE the
election.
The amusing part of all this is, to a
man who can possess his soul and not
get eexcited, to see what is said AFTER
the election. It reminds one of the
'BEFoRE' and "AFTER' taking of a
patent medicine. Last week States
vile Landmark contained long COM
munication from jealous, if indiscree :,
friend, of SENATOR RANSOM stating that
it is true that onr Senior Senator is in
volved in financial way, aid calling
upon his admirers in the State to con-
tribute a sum of money to pay off his
debts, and to let him begin his new
term unencumbered with debt. The
correspondent calls upon the editors of
the newspapers to receive subscript ions
for the aforesaid purposes. To show
his faith by his works this debt-paying
friend says that he has deposited
sum of money with the editor of the
Landmark in order to relieve the Sen
ator. In the same issue of the Land
mark, the editor says that information
has come to him that one gentleman,
who violently opposed SENATOR RANSOM
because he did not pay his debts, is
himself in debt.
If SENATOR RANSOM is in debt and
the people would raise a sum to pay
his debts it would be doing for him
exactly what admiring friends did more
than once for the distinguished DANIEL
WEBSTER aid HENRY CLAY in the
course of their Congressional career
But the Chronicle has no means of
knowing how far correct is the CORES
