studying the matter carefully. He had
etill good deal to learn about it and
would rather wait until he had mastered
the intricacies of the subject. He will

later day. In the meantime
he is sure the city needs an outlet only
in times of heavy rain. At other times
the sewage will be, and ought to be, used

IT seems that Spokane Falls has III

IT seems that Spokane Falls has her
scandal, in the appropriation of funds
and supplies sent to the relief commit
tee, for aid of the sufferers by the late
fire. It. will be remembered that thou
sand of dollars worth of provisions were
sent from all parts of the country for
the relief of the sufferers. The supplies
were taken charge of by the relief COM
mittee and issued to applicants upon
orders obtained from persons authorized
to perform that duty. Subsequently
it was discovered that crookedness had
been practiced and that Robert Inglis,
an emplye of the relief committee who
was suspected OF stealing the goods and
selling them to grocers and others, had
left the city. Chief of Police Warren
traced him to Chico, California, and
brought him back. He then made the
startling statement that conspiracy
had existed among the officials and
others for the appropriation of the re-
lief supplies on large scale. Inglis
was released on bail to appear and tes-
tify.

A seawall from Priests point to Browns
wharf, following the deep water contours
of the bottom OF the bay, would enable
the United States Government to erect
the finest and most extensive dry docks
in the world, at the minimum of expense
These docks could be filled with fresh
water from the Des Chutes river, and
could be emptied in the tide. 1t would
not be necessary TO erect the very expen,
sive pumping machinery used at every
dry dock in the world. Flood gates only
would be required. The Government
could accomplish this at an expense OF
not more than $500, 600.

Hotel Accommodations.
Olympia Has the Finest Hotel I'm
Washington.

Olympia Has the Finest Hotel in
Washington.
The hotel accommodations are one
of the most important considerations
in determining the location of the
State Capital, and here, too, Olympia
stands far ahead of her rivals. Her
new hotel, "The Olympia" is larger,
finer, can accommodate more guests
and cost more to build and furnish
than the leading hotels at Ellensburg,
North Yakima and Pasco combined.
Located on the principal street, only
five blocks from the Postofiice or the
wharves and about the same distance
from the Capitol, this splendid hostelry
is one of the most prominent buildings
in the city. From its upper floors a
magnificent view of the Sound, the
mountains and the forests can be OBJ
tanned. 1t has frontage of lis feet
by depth of lao, with four stories, an
attic and high tower. Entering it by
the main entrance from Main street,
you find yourself in hallway only
few steps from the large lobby or ro-
tunda that fills the entire center of the
building. The dining-room lies before
you across the lobby, and to your right
are large parlors, while to the left are
several suits of private rooms for fami-
lies or luxurious bachelors. The kit
chen is in the southwest corner OF the
building. Down stairs in the basement
are the billiard room, with six tables,
the saloon, barber shops, bath rooms,
power house, laundry and bakery. Up
stairs, on the second and third floors,
are rooms single and en- suite, each
with its closet and bath. There is a
large elevator, and the whole building
is heated by steam. On every floor are
| fireplugs and an abundance of hose.
A fine porch extends around the first
floor. On all sides the view is superb.
It reaches across the water to the
Olympic range or over into the dense
woods, and as a summer resort the no.
tel affords accommodations that are
unrivaled. Over $4,000 will be put in
the building, and nearly halt as much
more in the furnishing, and two hun
dred guests can, when complete, find
a hospitable shelter beneath its roof.
Besides The Olympia" there are the
Carleton House, Young's, and several
other well-kept hotels, besides a num-
Der of private boarding-houses. During
the sessions of the Legislature the hos
pitable citizens of Olympia throw open
their houses to their visitors, and there
is ample accommodation for all.

PUTTING UP His FENCEs.-It is q
matter OF common nOtOriety that Ex-
Gov. Ferry has for many years evaded
the payment of his taxes in Thurston
county. claiming that the annual as
assessment roll rarely complies with
all the technical requirements OF law,
and that he could beat the county in
any attempt made to enforce co.lec-
tion. A few days ago he wrote to the
Auditor Mr.. Tweed. asking him to
make up a statement of past taxes and
he would pay. His present candidacy
will do the county that much good, il
he liquidates before the LIST day OF

OLYMPIA TO THE FRONT.

The day approaches when the most
important election ever known in this
Territory will be held, as it isintroduc-
tory of the State OF Washington into
the American Union, and doubtless
both political parties have put for
ward their best men, in order, that in
any event, we may have capable and
efficient men as State officers. 1t is
especially gratifying to know that the
people, without distinction OF party,
are recognizating the claims of Olym-
pia for the permanent capital of the
new State and are Justly indignant
that few men having town lots to
dispose of at speculative prices at e.
lensburgh and North Yakima, are us
ing INSCRIPTIONS means to remove it
from its present desirable and pleasant
location, central and accessible as it is
to the business and population of the
State, to one of the points named
above, while they know and every one
must know who examines the matter
at all, that Olympia is more conven-
lent and accessible to over four times
the number of people than any place
that can be named east of the noun
tains. 1t is indeed true that Allen c.
Mason, and the others who like him are
interested in getting up TOWNSHIP
boom and fever regardless of real value
or merit, at North Yakima, may dupe
the credulous, and scoop in their hard
earned dollars, by the sale OF lots at a
fictitious valuation.
Olympia's claim for the retention of
the capital is based upon merit alone
merit so apparent that no one can
truthfully gainsay it. She, therefore,
confidently appeals to the patriotism
and unbought judgment of the people
to promote public interests of the
State by looking to it that the name
Olympia is upon the ticket of every vo-
ter for the capital of the State of
Washington. From every quarter,
both east and west of the mountains,
the most encouraging reports are re-
ceived, to the effect that. the work
goes bravely on, and that the majority
which Olympia will receive will exceed
5000, and thus forever silence her
base traducers.

PEERLESS OLYMPIA.

As Is usually the case here at Olym-
pia, the weather continues perfectly
charming and the atmosphere being
perfectly free from the smoke arising
from forest fires which TO some degree
obscu-ed the view Tor few weeks dur
ing midsummer, the picture spread
out before us at this time from any
and all points in the city, is one that
must delight the eye of every beholder
and make an impression not easily for
gotten.
Not alone the range OF lofty snow
capped mountains and the placid bay
with its fleet OF splendid steamers and
other craft constantly gliding to and
fro on its surface, but the city itself is
trancendently beautiful, no frost hav-
ing as yet affected the green and lux
uriant foliage of trees and shrubbery.

grees) and its society composed OF
"brave men and fair women" so re-
fined and ho:pitable that life is indeed
exceedingly pleasant within the con-
fines of the Capital City.
What contrast it presents when
compared with North Yakima and Ell
lensburgh, with their alkali dust and
desert, their uncomfortable heat and
wind storms of summer, and their in
tense perishing cold of winter, with the
thermometer 80 to 40 degrees below
zero! And yet the TOWNSHIP specula-
tors, in their eagerness to dipose OF
lots, are asking the people to remove
the capital from Olympia, where it is
SO beautifully, centrally and desirably
located, to enc or the other of the
places named, east OF the mountains.
Unquestionably the patriotism, the
pride, the convenience and the COM
fort Of the people of the State OF
Washington demand that it remain at
Olympia, so grandly situated at the
head waters OF the great Mediterranean
of America, where she is easily reached
not only by the people of the State,
but BY all the nations of the earth,-a
city too, with history, a location and
a social condition of which she may

the residence OF Gen. Isaac /. Stevens,
who in calamity defending the Ameri-
can Union laid his noble life on the
altar of his country and whose faith in
and devotion to this great common
wealth and this city as its capital was
most emphatic and enthusiastic.
To place the capital elsewhere than
at Olympia, is proposition so utterly
absurd and outrageous, rs to arouse
the just indignation of the patriotic
citizens of the whole State, irrespective
of sex or condition, and which will re-
