In the course of the debate in the
Senate on the Omnibus bill, Senator
Platt, Chairman of the Senate Com
mittee, having the bill in charge was
questioned as to the reason the con-
ferees had not insisted On the right of
women in Washington Territory to
vote and hold Office in spite of the
decision OF the Supreme Court of the
Territory. Mr.. Platt said it was a
question of expediency. The decision
OF the Supreme Court of Washington
Territory had been appealed to the
Supreme Court of the United States,
and he hoped that the case would be
advanced on the calendar. He should
be very glad if the Supreme Court
would find that the judgment should
be reversed.

LET Us SAVE OUR MONEY.-A
preacher named Baxter, in England
has fixed upon the 9Th day of March,
1898, as the day for the destruction of
the world, or the day succeeding the
end OF the Harrison Administration.
This will crush the hopes of both
parties for the succession, but result
in an immense saving for campaign
expenses preceding and fireworks after
the election and Inauguration. Proba.
bly, the fireworks VIII be witnessed,
all the same, but urder somewhat
different conditions, amid which Meth
or party can complain of a "cold
day."

LET her citizens bear in mind that
Olympia is at the present moment ON
the threshold of an era such as WAS
never known in its existence. During
the summer and fall seasons, thous-
ands and thousands of people will pay
our city a visit. 1t therefore behooves
the citizens who have vacant houses
and spare rooms, to see to it that all
who come may be properly provided
for. First impressions are lasting
ones, and there is nothing that will
so impress the stranger and traveller,
as the treatment he receives and the
accommodation afforded him when he
arrives in a city FOR the first time.

DuR1NG the past few days a number
of capitalists from different sections oil
the country have visited Olympia, at
tracted here by the resources of this
section. Prominent among them are
several bankers OF Dakota who have
secured site for a new national bank.
This fact is the very best of evidence
of the opinion in which this city is
held both from a financial and safe in
vestment point of view.

The New Civil Service Rule.

Ih:re does not seem to be much
doubt with reference to President
Harrison's position on civil service re-
form. The indication is that removals
will be made without reference to
other than partisan grounds seems to
be accepted asa finally, even at his
early age of proceedings. There will,
hereafter, be a radical change from
the policy inausurated by Mr.. Cleve-
land, which permitted offensive par
tlsans" to hold over during "good be-
havior." Even the Executive head
o. a Territory so soon to become a
State docs not seem to be secure from
the remorseless political guillotine,
and the question is not shall re-
moval be made, but who shall succeed
to the office.
There seems to be quite contest as
to who shall stand in Gov. Semp.e's
shoes. A late dispatch says that the
contest is between Ex-Governor Squire,
who wants the appointment, and
Delegate Allen, who is trying to have
Harrison appoint his friend, Miles
c. Moore of Walla Walla. Squire is
endorsed by the people of Seattle,
Tacoma, Olympia, Spokane Falls and
all small towns all over the Territory.
A telegram with fifty signatures was
received ftom Sprague ard others are
pouring in daily, besides letters by
every mail. In opposition to this,
Allen practically stands alone with
one or two endorsing petitions from
Walla Walla, which are all that Miles
Moore can get. Allen insists ON con-
trolling the patronage OF the Territory
and proposes to put his friends in
Office, or else he will come back, he
announces, and fight the Adminis.ra-
ton and endeavor to be elected to the
Senate on that issue.

The person that has been an observer
of public events and the drift of public
sentiment, must have noticed the'growth
of the republican idea among the ma
tions of the world. Prof. Joseph Cook
classes this as one of the seven modern
wonders of the world. II is only few
days since the Brazilian empire went
to the ground, and upon its RUNS has
been erected republican government.
The news comes waited across the
waters from far away Australia of a
movement on that island to establish
republican government there, and if
we read the signs correctly before many
years have gone an independent ma
ton by name of United States of Aus
tralia will take equal footing with OF
her nations Of the earth. Canada ex-
cept in name is an independent nation
and Che restlessncss of her people in
dicate that ere long Canada in name as
we'll as fact will be an Independent
government. But the moss surprising
news comes from Germany. The Ger.
man parliament (reichstdg) recently
passed law breaking the enforced
military service law in direct opposl.
tion to the wishes Of cf Bismark. The
campaign preceding the coming elec.
tions is being vigorously prosecuted and
adviccs from there indicate that the
socialists,whic is the party opposed t.
the government are in the lead. The
Portuguese government recently applied
to Frankfort and Berlin bank for ;
loan of large sum of money. These
bankers refused the loan being alarmed
by the advices from Lisbon touching
negotiations there that have for theil
objective point the establishment of /;
Portuguese republic.

Two Worthy Men Gone.

South Dakota has within d few days
lost two men she could lily afford to
spare. One is Rev. DIR. Joseph Ward,
OF Yankton, President of the Yankton
Congregational College. and the other
Prof. Oleson, President of the Ver-
million University. DIR. Ward died at
his home IN Yankton, S. ID. Prof.
Oleson was one of the mfortunates in
the fire that destroyed the Tribune
building at Minneapolis. DIR. Ward is
an old resident of Dakota, coming to
Yankton i'll the early sixties. Since
his residence here his work has wholly
been for the building up of Yankton
and South Dakota. He was the found
er of the Yankton college and has been
its president from its beginning. He
has been an earnest and ever ready
advocate of the admission of South
Dakota. His work has ever been char
acterized by unselfsh devotion to the
peoples good with no hope or desire
for reward other than the good to his
country.
Prof. Oleson has not been so long a
resident of South Dakota, but since his
election to the presidency of the Yer.
million University he has exhibited
marked talent and was rapidly bring
ing that school to the equal rank of til.
older educational institutions of The
country.

for much Of the trade Of this section Of

and tEadesman are fully aware that but 4

points reaches them, directly or indirect

In length in order to tap this vast area.
Once reaching Yakima, they would join
