WHAT NEXT?

What real estate brokers and land
SPECTATORS will resort to in order to
accomplish their selfish ends. il per.
fectly appalling to any fair-minded
man, or one having any regard for
truth and patriotism. This remark
was suggested by the advertisement OF
Allen {. Mason, in the Tacoma Ledger,
(Which was inadvertently treated in
our local columns as an article of that
paper, who, III the absence of anv
good reason for removing the Capital
from Olympia, reprOduces some old
purchased puffs of North Yakima,
published and paid for two or three
years ago, and which were written in
utter disregard of the truth and con-
tam such a medley of nonsense, exag-
geratiOn and falsehood that Eli Per-
kins might well be suspected Of the au-
thorship. While such glaring misrep-
reservations deceive nobody who know
anything Of the location, surroundings
and facilities of approach possessed by
Olympia, as compared with either
North Yakima or Ellensburgh, it never.
theless shows what this man Mason
and men of his ilk will resort to, that
they may promote their selfish pur-
poses. Certain facts are beyond dis
pute OF truthful contradiction:
lst. Olympia is almost or quite in
the geographical center of the State OF
Washington.
I'd. 1t is located at the center OF
population and business, or more near
ly so than any city in the common
wealth.
Sd. No city is more beautifully stu
ated, being at the headwaters of that
great commercial highway, Puget
Sound, easily and cheaply reached by
sea or land, having the best OF steam
boat and railway facilities, making her
one or the most accessible, as we'll as
the most beautiful and healthy cities
in the State.
4th. In addition to the incompara-
bic location and accessibility for the
Capital of the great State of Washing
ton, Olympia's social and sanitary con-
dition is such that if the question of
the permanent location of the Capital
is determined by the unbiased, I'M
prejudiced and patriotic judgment of
the voters on the LIST of October, she
will receive three-fourths and possibly
nine-tenths of the votes cast, notwith-
standing the false statements prompted
by selfish motives of Mason and other
real estate brokers and land specula.
tors. The friends OF Olympia should
not in any degree lose faith in the
good judgment and sound patriotism
of the people, neither should they
abate their earnest efforts to obtain an
overwhelming verdict in her favor.

The Republicans do not seem TO re-
gard the formation of trusts with the
equanimity of the father Of the party
james G. Blainc-and in the Walla
Walla platform, call upon the national
government to prevent combines by
general law. Blaine declares such an
enactment would be in violation OF in
diyidual rights, and in expressing that
view was doubtless /" casting anchors
to the windward" to find holding
ground in the great roadstcad where
only princely hulks can sail. He
meant the individual rights of such
men as Carnegie, who command their
millions, and not of the owner. of the
humble homestead, or the kit of tools,
who has not the means, if the dispo-
sition, to form a combine for anything
more than to supply the necessities
for himself and family. The Republi-
cans at Walla Walla seemed to think
that this frank avowal of their chief
was likely to lose them votes, and have
resolved to blow cold to make palata-
BILE the repast he has served so piping
hot. It matters but little, however,
what the party of pretenses affirm by
platform. They are bound by nothing
under heaven but . unity of purpose
to keep possession OF the spoils. Their
platforms are invariably drag-nets to
catch gudgeons, and the one woven at
Walla Walla seems admirably adapted
for that object. We shall examine
some other of its mcshes ere its CAM
paign is over.

variety OF manufactures. The aggre-
gate of the business transacted here is
very large; MUCH larger than a casual
observer would suppose, as our bust
ness men have established a reputation
for quiet, straightforward, steady,
continuous trade, free from blow, blus-
ter, deception or excitement. In view
OF the foregoing and the additional
fact that on the LIST of next month
the verdict OF the people will make
this the permanent Capital OF the new
est and greatest State OF the Union is
indeed cheering and encouraging to
high degree. Let us act energetical-
ly with full realization OF the bright
and glorious future that awaits US.

FACTS AND FIGURES.
Showing 0lympia's Superiority in an
49, Unmistakabls Manner.

AS the question of locating the per-
manent capital of the State of Wash.
ingtor. is to be submitted to the voters
on the LIST of next month and the
place should be determined on merit,
we propose to submit to the intelli-
gent people of this commonwealth
some additional facts and figures.
As the capital cannot be located at
any point that will be contiguous to,
and entirely convenient for, every
place and community, it must be con-
coded that the location should be at
that point where the greater number
of people will be accommodated, on
the principle of the greatest good 10
the largest number. -

CLIMATIC CONDITIONS.
Alone Sufficient to Defeat the Project
for Removal Of the Capital.

While we admire the pluck and en-
ergy of the people of Ellensburg and
feel grateful for the hospitality they ex-
tended the members of the State Con.
vention lately held in that city; while
the best wishes of the STANDARD go
out to them in the grand effort they
are making to build up city against
many adverse circumstances; a sense
of duty, which rises far above any local
interest the writer may feel, impels
him to protest most 'emphatically
against the location of the capital
there, or indeed at North Yakima, or
Pasco, where the same climatic condi-
tons prevail. The high winds, carry
ing with them suffocating clouds OF
dust, which sweep over that wide ex-
panse of country during spring, sum-
mer and autumn, and the low temper
ature which environs those cities with
ice and snow for three months in the
winter, when the mercury falls from
20 to 40 degrees below zero, should de-
eide those habituated to ,nilder chimes
that neither the legislature, which re-
mains in session two of the most in
clement months, nor the public Offices,
which should be accessible to all with
out literally running the gauntlet of
such Affections, ought to be placed by
permanent location of the Capital in
any of the poil.is yet named in East
ern Washington, Health and comfort
are essentials for...the best results in
mental as in physical effort, and in no
duty should the highest results be care
fully sought for by every means
at command, rs in framing the laws
for great commonwealth. The peo-
pie of the Western division of the new
State, used as they are to a mild and
equable climate, cannot adapt them
selves to the change without loss of
physical strength and mental vigor.
This is the opinion OF everybody who
has had an opportunity for forming a
judgment from personal observation,
and should alone decide the matter of
location in favor of the only point in
every respect eligible West of the
mountains-Olympia. But there are
many other considerations and condi-
tons which should influence choice
of our city, which have been and will
be reviewed under their appropriate
heads.

the Northern Pacific will be arrayed
against that city in its fight for the
capital. 1t is well known that North
Yakima is child of the great railroad
and it is feared that the forces of the
company are being drilled to battle for
the capital location at that place.

THE CONVENTION AND IT'S
WORK.

The Democratic Convention which
convened, last Monday, at Ellens-
burgh, has been pronounced one OF
the most noted assemblages of repre-
sentative men that ever met in the
Territory. 1t had able men from
every walk of life, many of whom
have proven their fidelity to principle
by the stcadfast devotion of lifetime
while others we're there, in the early
prime of manhood, just entering upon
the righteous crusade, actuated by a
close study of the history and princi-
pies of a party which has been so
zealously devoted, SO unselfshly true
70 its creed rs to challenge the ad-
miration of all noble-heartcd men.
The speeches made by the prcsid-
ing officers and members of the con-
vention, were able expressions of the
true doctrines Of the party and elicit
ed unbounded applause. In fact the
whole proceedings were so enthusiast
tic, so earnest, so hearty and so sim
cere, that it is difficult to imagine
any other result of the contest it in
augurates than brilliant and sweep
ing victory.
Mr.. Griffitts is . man of intellect,
nerve, industry, vigor and sincerity.
He is just such representative as our
new State needs in the National coun-
ellis. He represents the principles
which should be woven into the very
structure Of its government. He is a
true representative Of the people and
their sinterests, as opposed to the
grasping exactions Of corporate power.
Such man will leave the impress Of
his convictions on work done in form
ing tho new State.
Governor Semple is equally q man
Of the people. His course as Execu-
tive Of the Territory shows that, and
has opened for him = warm place in
the hearts Of the people.
The remainder of the ticket is made
up Of men known to be true to the
principles of Democracy. There is
not . time-server, changing or a
mugwump on the ticket-state, dis
trict or county-and the people owe it
to themselves to see that they are
elected.

The most extensive system of irriga.
ton canals and storage reservoirs ever
undertaken in the Northwest was
successfully inaugurated during Au-
gust, capitalists having purchased
over 100000 acres of Northern Pa
cific Railroad land in Washington and
Montana, and have placed several par
ties of engineers in the field to lay
out the lines of the canals ready for
construction. The most active field
OF operation at present will be in the
Yakima country, in Washington,
and between the West Gallatin and
Madison rivers, in Montana. In each
OF these localities the company has
bought all the land within a radius
OF many miles, and will build at once
100 miles OF canal in each place. 1t is
understood that the water and land
both will be thrown open to purchase
by settlers, as soon as the canals are
huilt
