AN ASSAY OFFICE.


Representative Wilson has indi-
Gated through the press as a part OF
his winters work II plan to secure
government assay office for the
state of Washington.
The importance of this move can
be readily appreciated by those
who have capital invested in mines,
and the efforts of Representative
Wilson i'm this direction will be
thoroughly appreciated. II this
important branch of the govern
ment's service is assured for the
state, the question will then arise ms
to the most convenient location OF
the office. At present the most
extensive mining Interests are CEN
tered In Eastern Washington and
Northern Idaho, the latter being u
part of the same mineral belt. out
side the coal interests, there Is but lit
tie mining being done in any other
part of the state. AS soon as the
board of trade of this city is re-or-
ganized, 1t very properly might
gather u few mining statistics,
which. would have weight both In
securing an assay office and deter
mining its location.

THAT BANQUET.

To say the least, the attendance
of Senators Squire and Allen at IL
banquet In Washington given by
officials Of the Northern Pacific
Railroad Company was in bad form
and impolitic. Washlngton's repre-
sentatives should hold themselves
uloof from corporation influences
and associations. BY so doing they
will he able to deal justly on every,
question that effects the people and
the railroads, and will strengthen
both themselves and their party at
home.
The REVIEW docs not wish TO he
wrongly construed in this matter.
1t does not question the motives of
the senators from Washington, but
rather credits them with n lofty de-
sire to serve their state with fidelity
and honor. But for all that ii does
not sound well TO have 1t reported
in the dispatches that they are maxi
ing merry with gentlemen high in
the service Of railroad corporations.
II StNlilN Stiulikt liiit VIC uSNV't lpii-
ticians should fail to catch the tone
of public sentiment upon this mat
ter; or, detecting it, should disre-
gard 1t SO openly. Unquestionably
their action will prove distasteful to
the people of the state, and months
of conscientious service in the halls
of congress will be required to en-
tircly sweep away the injurious inn
preston that it has left In the minds
of their constituents.
IL will I've observed that Congress
man Wilson was conspicuous hy
his absence. John l.. evidently
knows In what direction the wind
blows in the state of Washington.
1t will also be observed that the
news Of the banquet was exclusively
published in this stute by the Re-
VIEW. The people Of the state may
safely rely upon this journals Wash
ington press bureau catching all the
important news, and that II will bc
printed without regard to whose po-
liticIl fences II may imperil.

of tho land I'm the direction of ma
tcrlal wealth and prosperity. So
noticeable Ia this that 1t Is frequent
ly remarked upon by strangers
from the East, and many
of our comparatively small towns
would put to shame cities of much
larger size In the East This II an
indication, also, that the roughness of
western frontier life has practically
passed away, and that the refine
ments, amenities and luSurles are
taking the place of former hard
ships. II Is certain that II will take
many years for the West to drop
back into that state of Indifference
and lethargy I'm these matters which
chamctcrlzes many places In the
East, but IL IL we'll to be on the
guard from the beginning. The
church and tho school, wherever
they go, bring countless blessings of
wealth, morality, good breeding and
intelligence in their wake, and any
community which fails heartily to
support and cherish such institu-
tions Is certainly sowing seeds that
will bring forth bitter fruit.
THE noted Cronln case Is now
drawing to II close. Few trials have
attracted more widespread attcn-
tion, not because the murder was
one of the most brutal on record,
but because it was supposed to bc
the result of conspiracy of menu
bers of an order which is almost
international In its extent of mem-
bership. 1t is hard to believe that
an order composed Of reputable citl-
zens would issue II decree of death
in these days Of advanced civiliza-
ton.
The trial court did not seem to
give much crcdcnce to such n con-
spirncy, as It ruled out all evidence
intended 10 have such u bearing.
In case a conviction IL obtained,
startling developments may come
to light in confessions of the con-
demned prisoners, but at present
there Is little If any expectation of
u disclosure which will involve II
secret association. II seems more
probable that the conspiracy only
extended to few men whose ex-
treme fanaticism lead them to will
ful murder.

COAST DEFENSES.

The timely warning given by the
president and the secretary of war to
congress, rs to the defenseless condi-
ton OF the coast lines of the United
States, ought to result In the adop-
ton of modern methods of home
protection, Year after year similar
recommendations have been care
fully prepared, showing the neces-
sity of adequate protection from
foreign depredations, which have
virtually been ignored. Instead of
recognizing the practical necessities
of our government, some OF the
members of congress have been try
ing to fake political capital by re-
duclng the government expendi-
lures. The title of "Watch dog OF
the Treasury" sounds we'll to some
people when used i'm political cam
paigns, but the risk of millions OF
property In our seaport cities,
virtually at the mercy of few
second-class gunboats owned by
some secondary government, Is not
considered. The destruction of San
Francisco or New York would in
directly affect the interests of the
people living in remote parts of the
interior.
While there Is no probability OF
impending danger to threaten the
peace and safety of our country,
there is certain guarantee of
national honor which Is more easily
maintained when supported by
powerful means of defense. The
dignity and Importance of nations
standing among other nations Is
controlled to some extent by her un-
assailnble condition. Now that all
branches of the government are in
the hands of one party, the RESPONSE
bility of further neglect, at least to
establish coast protection, will rest
with the party In power.

THE ARID LANDS.

Recommendations have been
made from time to time to congress
to establish system of irrigation
which would result in the reclama-
tion ofthearid plains throughout the
West. Millions of acres of the most
fertile farming lands lie idly await
ing the establishment of such IA sys-
tenn. In most instances the neces-
sary expense entailed is too great
for private enterprise to undertake.
Corporations are being formed in
some localities, but as IA rule the
average farmer will not subject
his property to the exact
ions of wealthy corporations.
The only solution for immediate
reclamation of these lands Is govern
mcnt aid. 1t is safe to say that there
is nothing which would 80 material
~ increase the agricultural wealth
of the United States. The broad val
leys and extensive plains should be
reclaimed on Il scale adequate to fur
nish an unfailing water supply. 1t
has been practically demonstrated
that all this arid region can be made
to blossom and bloom and become II
waving sea of golden harvest, year
after year. In this region Ia
found the most productive
oil on the American continent. All
that is required is anartiticial water
supply to make it the most desirable
farming land to be obtained. AS
the ceaseless tide of immigration
from all parts of the world comes to
our borders, willing and anxious to
expend labor to develop the re-
sources of this country, some pro-
vision should he made to extend
the arabic area for the. tillers of the
soil. At present 1t Is difficult to find
good farming lands without going
back on the foothills, which are
covered with valuable timber. In
order to comply with the
land laws much of this
timber is being sacrificed in
clearing these lands for agrlcul-
tural purposes. Every tree thus de-
stroyed reduces the nations wealth
in forests, and adds difficult and
tedious work to the farmer in eX-
tending the area in agricultural
lands.
If our government would inaugu-
rate Il systematic plan of reclama-
ton of its arid lands, IL would de-
velop n vast agricultural wealth, and
at the same time preserve much of
it's valuable timber, and would also
provide homes for all those who
wish to obtain the advantages
which are offered in this Western
country.

THE MORMONS.

The decision Of Judges Anderson
and Zane, holding that allen Nor
mons are not proper subjects for
naturalization by reason of their al
legiance to the Mormon church,
which Is professedly hostile to the
government, Ia of great Importance.
1t Is the handwriting on the wall,
which every Mormon will read and
note the doom of the Mormons'
power. For many years this organ
ization has sought to import enough
converts from foreign countries to
outnumber the gentle immigration
into their territory, in order to
maintain II political supremacy. BY
this method they have been able to
establish power In church and
state subseTvient to the dictates of
church leaders, which was virtually
the supreme law Of this territory.
When this decision is interpreted to
Its full extent It will be readily seen
that If an alien Is disqualified to be-
come citizen by reason of his be-
lief In a disloyal church, then for
the same reason native born Mor-
mon would become disfranchised
for the same reason. AS soon ~ the

THE WORLDS FAIR.

The Importance of the question of
the location of the worlds fair is
not undercstimuted by the press of
the country, nor by the rival claim
ants for the honor.
The New York Sun says: "1hc
location OF the worlds fair of '02
Is of more Importance than any
other practical question which
shall come up In the Fifty-first con-
gress." 1t certainly a matter of con-
siderable importance that such site
he selected that will best subservc
the interests of the country at large,
commercially and otherwise. But
1t Is matter in which sectional
rivalry any jealousy should play no
part. Congress should act promptly
and impartially in the matter, and
whether Now York, Chicago or st.
Louis is selected, II L. TO he hoped
that each of these cities will throw
aside all petty selhshness and
enter into hearty cooperation for
the success of the great exposition.
But 1t IL much more essential than
the solcctiou of the site that con-
gress should rise to the occasion and
provide liberal appropriations for
the carrying out of this project on a
scale worthy of the wealth, magni-
tudc and commercial prosperity and
Importance of our great country.
The success of the Paris exposition
illustrates the advantages that will
accrue to the United States from the
accomplishment of this gigantic ad-
vertising scheme. IT Is safe to say
that there Is no country In the world
with such varied products and such
multifarious enterprises, and that
has made such remarkable strides in
commercial and scientific advance
ment, as the United States. 1t Is
well to let the nations of the world
learn this, and to SOW broadcast the
information that this is the most
glorious land Of all. Every
section should vie with every
other in the display of its
products of all kinds, and all scc-
tional jealousy should be completely
lost sight of I'm laudable emulation
for the legitimate "boonling" of our
magnificent resources, great progress
and still greater possibilities.
BY no means the least benefit that
would result from the success of the
worlds fair would he the attraction
hitherwards of the skilled mechanics
and artisans Of Europe aud else
where, who would largely counter
act the influence of the hordes of
tho vicious and criminal who now
flock to these shores.
That congress will deem it n
privilege, rs well as duty, to act
In this matter In way as far as
possible pleasing to oil concerned,
and as will best reflect credit upon
the nation, there Is little doubt.
