Our Incompatible Climate and Rich
Resources.
By the Governor:

Our Incompatible Climate and Rich
Resources.
There is no commonwealth in the ma
ton so free from pests and natures ca
lamities as Washington, says the Pasco
Headlight. Here the toiler in the winter
can retire to rest and know that he will
not suffer from billiards, or find himself
barricaded with snow in the morning;
and in the summer he can sleep serenely
under his blanket without sweltering
from heat and have to labor with fan
to prevent suffocation. Here the people
are not terrorized by thunder and light
ening, cyclones and tornadoes, and sub
iected to the loss of life and property,
nor devastated with destructive floods in
summer and perilous billiards. in winter.
Here human flesh is heir to very few
ills, the latitude and climate being favor
able to health and not ase-breeding.
So much for climatic conditions.
Hcre the husbandman can SOW and
know that he will reap, as there are no
insects to destroy or injure his crops.
The gardener is sure Of the wages of his
toll, as there are no potatoe bugs or other
enemies destructive to his truck :"
The fruit grower knows that, with
proper care, his orchard will yield sure
and rich harvest of fruit, unexcelled in
size and excellence in any part of the
country, as no destructive enemies infest
it. In western Washington without, in
eastern Washington with or without
irrigation, crops of any kind never fail.
unlike regions of the Rocky mountains
that are affected with uncertainty, with
not enough or too much moisture. Here
the economy of nature has been Gener-
GUS in the distribution Of its water
courses leading from their mountain
sources for irrigating purposes where
needed, and in the mild manner of its
elements, and the fruitfulness of its soil.
Therefore, Washington is the paradise
of human happiness; the Mecca Of pros
perity; the commonwealth of varied and
unmeasured resources; the land Of vast
wealth; the home OF a brave and pros
porous people; and Will, ere five years,
be the empire state of the Pacific coast.

J. RYAN, Chairman,
Republican Central Committee.
Proclamation by the Governor OF
Washington Territory.

Washington Territory.
On the thirteenth day of April, eigh-
teen hundred and eighty-nine century
will have elapsed since George Wash
ington was inaugurated as the first
president of the Uuited States of Amer
lea.
The war for independence had been
concluded, and George Washington was
" first in war"
A period of peace had followed, and
George Washington war " first in peace"
An election was held and George
Washington was "first in the hearts of
his countrymen."
And so, on the the thirtieth day of
April, seventeen hundred and eighty
nine, that great man, in obedience to
the wishes of his fellow citizens, took the
oath as first magistrate of republic
that was then weak but is now the
mightiest on the earth. The end of the
first hundred years finds us in possession
of all the blessings that any people can
crave. 1t behooves us, therefore, and !
do recommend it to my fellow citizens
that on the thirtieth day Of April coming,
we spend portion of our time in hum
BILE prayer before Almighty God. And
as Congress has declared this to be q
general holiday, let us treat it as such.
1 trust that employees will not desire to
work and employers will not exact work
on that day, but that all will devote it
to rendering thanks to the giver of all
good; for that He did vouchsafe success
to our arms in the revolutionary war;
for that He did guide our forefathers in
the path of wisdom and enable them to
form government suitable to our needs;
for that He has kept the flames of patri-
otism alive in the hearts of all the
generations since then so that our
AAbOA OACo hdNO SOhlO OOWn W us uuliIl-
paired; for that He has enabled us to
preserve the union of states; for that
He has blest our methods of diplomacy
whereby we have maintained our rights
without recourse to war; and for that
He has brought us to this time with a
constant tide of material prosperity.
And let Us beseech almighty God to look
with favor upon US, the people of Wash
ington territory, during the critical
period upon which we are about to enter,
when wc must form constitution and
laws for "time's noblest offspring" the
state of Washington. Let us pray that
He may inspire those who may be elected
to the constitutional convention with a
due sense of their responsibility and en-
able them to well secure the rights OF
the people.
In testimony whereof, have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal OF
Washington territory to be affixed this
Sth day of April, 1889, and of the year

Whereas, The State Alliance OF Georgia

10 improve their financial condition, have
adopted cotton bagging as a covering for
cotton, and have pledged themselves not
to use jute bagglng under any circum-
stances, and remembering that the farm
ers were robbed out of two or three million
dollars last season by an infamous trust,
and knowing that the rascals boldly de-
clared their intentions (early this season.
TO rob them of a larger sum this year, and
recognizing the Importance of concentrat-
ed efforts to whip in this, the greatest fight
for freedom in our existence; therefore be
it,
Resolved LIST, That we, the ginners Of
Cobb county, heartily endorse the move
ments of the farmers to substitute cotton
baggng for jute, and that we bind our
selves not to buy any jute bagging, or
cause to be bought tor ourselves our ten
ants or our customers, and that we recog-
nize any attempt to defeat us in this move
ment as unwise and unfriendly to the
farmer
Resolved I'd, That airy merchant who
buys jute baggiHg and puts it on sale this
season, to defeat this movement Of the
farmers, that we will regard them as I'M
friendly to the farmer, and that we will
pledge ourselves not to patronize them in
future.
Resolved Sd, That we ask the coopera-
ton Of everybody that are our friends in
this movement, and that copy OF these
resolutions be published in our county

TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE.

Indiscrfbable Dangers Braved by an Agent
of the Congo Free State.
Africa contains over 5000, 900 miles
in area, and has more than 200, 600, 600
Inhabitants. In such a vast and almost
unknown country, thrilling adventures
are of everyday occurrence. and the
ject to perils peculiar to Africa alone.
OF such was she experience of Mr..
Deane, one of the agents of the Congo
Free State. He was in command of
Stanley Falls station when it was at
tackled by the Arabs. Deane, with his
comrade Dubois and four Haussa SOL
diers, fed from the station, and it was
not long before Dubois fell into the
river and was drowned. Deane and
his soldiers pushed on all night in a
drenching rain, and only stopped at
daylight for a short rest While
Deane's clothes were hanging ON the
bushes to dry shout in the rear told
them that they were discovered and that
the Arabs were in hot pursuit Deane
had just time to throw mis- clothes over
his arm and start at full speed through
the bush, followed by his attendants.
1t was nearly noon tefore they sue
ceeded in distancing their pursuers.
and by that time it was a most woe
begone band of fugitives. In the mad
race for life every Haussa had lost his
gun. and not weapon of any sort was
left in the party.
One by one Deane had dropped his
