A yERY FINE SENTIMENT,

Democrats are preaching beauutu'
doctrine n relation to non 'partisanship In
forming ne constitution. and vet the par
tv. while preaching one doctrine. is Prac-
tieipQ the opposite as vigorously as con-
venient. The REVIEW fully agrees that
the new constitution should be non-paftl'
sau and that those who compose the con-
vention should lay aside all things ou.
straight, old.fashoned patriotism, and
work simply for the good of the whole
people. But while these senh'
meuts are echoed back in form
from the democratic party the echo
is ike the mocking voice from barren
wall. One democratic organ in this dis
trict, while echoing the words OF this pa
triotic sentiment, WAS circulating ms'ic'
ious falsehoods against republican can
didate Of the highest integrity. BY fraud
ulent practices at the polls and false &C.
cusations prior to the day of election Mr..
T.. Ham Of thi, county was defeated TOR
delegate to the convention. The district
il republican in politics and no
citizen Wltnln ltb oouuuo oo".>,
trlthfully utter word against
this worthy citizen the republicans placed
in nomination. Actuated by patriotic
sentiments. no republican was heard to
utter word against the democratic nom
inee; but at the same time the democratic
organ was each day engaged in parading
false state ments against the republican
candidates in the same district. and the
party approved of these tactics and prof
tied by them at the polls.
The sentiment of patriotism is a very
6ne one. but the democratic party has al
WAYS found it much easier to preach 1T
than to practice it.
Up in Stephens county, where DR..
Manley, the republican candidate, was
known to be ahead, the vote of an entire
precinct was thrown out because of a
mere technicality that could have been
easily removed. The same spirit Of party
greed has been displayed in many other
instances and yet the democrats are clam
oring for -partisanship on this great
occasion,

TIE following. from the editorial col
umns OF The Horse, of Denver, which
is recognized as standard authority upou
such matters. is respectfully referred to
the Montana papers:
Spokane Falls, W. r., has been claiming,
and Justly too, the honor Of having had
Armslrong's great colt named after the
place. This claim for the most part Is sub.
stantial, notwithstanding the fact that sew
eral papers in Montana and the East have
hoDored the village OF Spokane in Lewis
and Clarke county, Mortana, with being
the place from which the great colts name
was taken. Captain Armstrong recently
said with reference to naming the colt: "ln
naming Spokane 1 bad two reasons In
view iirsi. To honor Spokane Falls, w. T.,
and secondly because of sn old indian
horse tradition OF that locality which very
much interested me- Thus the owner OF
Montans's great colt has settled ali con-
troveIsy and contention regarding the
naming Of Spokane. The fact that be was
not named after the Montana village does
not lessen him in the estimation Of her
people, however. Whats In name"
anyway Spokane would have made 2:S43
in the Kentucky derby 10 lie had beeh
called Smith; yet we do not deny that the
city by the falls has something to brsg and
feel proud Of.

The Tacoma Ledger editorially says:
1.-The Spokane Falls REVIEW thinks it ex-
ceedingly unfortunate that the senatorial
commission Investigating the Canadian
commercial union problem could not make
it convenient to stop at Spokane Falls, AZ
the business men of that metropolis had
much valuable information to impart.
which the commission cannot obtain from
any other source. 1t also regrets that the
committee could not have seen the eastern
portion of the territory and learned
from their own observation some
thing of its vast resources. Ths COM
mittee took large amount of tes-
timony relative to the condition and
resources Of the territory while at Tacoma.
and while they might have received more
vivid impression by actual observation.
they we're made very fully acquainted
with all sections of the territory" II is
gratifying to know that the distinguished
gentlemen were made acquainted with the
resources of all sections of Washington.

THE OLYMPIA POsTOFFICE.


II is very evident that Thomas Cavau-
augh, editor of the Olympia Partisan Is
not delighted with the appointment OF
Val. Milroy as postmaster at that place.
This is the way he reveals his displeasure:
This was surprise and disappointment
to more than nineteen-twentieth OF the re'
publicans Of the city and county. While
we have not one word to say against the
young man who has been appointed. we
do most positively say that in making
this appointment, John b. Allen or the
president. or both, have disregarded the
expressed wish of the republicans of this
city and county. and of the patrons of the
office. We have insisted from the very
beginning that the administration should
do something for General Milroy. not be-
cause he was politician. for he is not,
but for the reason that he WAS good,
loyal, devoted soldier and citizen. Yet We
do not see how the administration can be
quit OF its obligation to General Milroy, by
naming his son for thhd-class post
Office.
Delegate Allen could no doubt testify
about now that the distribution OF fedora
patronage is not by any means an elemen
of strength to the dispenser. A few dozer
postotfice fights like that which has recent
ly been raging at Goldendale would b'
sufficient to drive an ordinary member o.
congress into permanent retirement.

delivered without ostentation or display.

stiou falls upon any section Of our coun-

THE events of this week, as recorded in
the REVIEWS local columns. plainly indi-
cate that there is to be no cessation dur
ing the hot months os that activity which
has characterized the growth Of the mar
velous city of Spokane Falls, during the
past three years. The activity in railroad
construction, the erection of new build
Jugs, the preparations for new manufac'
turing establishments, the development OF
the mining and agricultural regions trib-
utafy to this city, the establishing of new
wholesale and retail commercial honses,
the assurances from reliable sources OF a
continuation of the tide of Immigration,
all proclaim that the metropolis OF East
ern Washington is bound to grow speedi-
ly into great city. IT possesses all the
natural advantages requisite to such a
consum nation, and while general
desire has prevailed that nothing should
occur to create that condition of affairs
usually denominated as boom, it has been
impossible to check the demand for desira-
ble business sites, which is constantly in
creasing. The inquiry for business houses
and dwellings is equally great, and not
withdrawing the almost incredible num-
Der of new houses erected-the number
extending into the thousands and the cost
aggregating many millions-there is not
a desirable house in the city for rent. No
city in the worlds history can present
such record.
