FOR STATE SUPERINTENDENT.

The Davenport Times, Tacoma Globe

w. B. Turner, of this city, in connection
with the responsible Off ce ofstate super
intendent of public instruction. The
Times, edited by Hon. Frank Dallam, a

A DESPATCH received from member
of the interstate commerce commission
announces that the case of Spokane
Falls merchants against the Northern
Pacific Railroad Company will come up
for hearing in this city on September IL.
This case having been commenced can
not now be withdrawn, perhaps; but it is
probably true that in tho presence of cir.
cumstanccs now existing most OF
the people of this city would
prefer to see nolle pros. entered and
await for competition and the rules OF
trade to adjust this matter of rates. The
Northern Pacific company has come to
the rescue like true friend in this
hour of distress and 1t may DO that
friendly arbitration would settle any
matters Of dispute that may exist re-
garding rates. This is at least worth
considering at this time. OF course II
the company is violating a law of the
land the settlement of the matter In tho
interest of those nggrievcd, is business
affair. But as to this would it not be
best for our merchants and the officials
OF the company to have an open confer
encc and comparison of views before
finally locking issues In courtg Let us
sssson together.

The Montana constitutional conven.
tion has wisely left the selection of the
permanent seat of government to the
choice of the people, after the state shall
have been admitted to the Union, its
machinery placed in perfect running
order and the resources OF the various
sections more fully developed. BY this
means the ratification of the new consti.
tuition and the election of state officers
will not be entangled with sectional diff.
ferences as to the location of the capital.
1t is regretted by a majority the people
OF Washington that our constitutional
convention did not view the matter in
this light, and leave the capital tempo.
rarily ut Olympia, afiording tho people
an opportunity to more carefully con.
slider the matter of its permanent loca.
tion.
However, the makers of our constitu.
tion have taken different view of the
matter and deemed it best to have the
question settled now and possibly their
action may prove to have been for the
best

IT is understood that many deposits of
clay suitable for making brick are known
TO exist in the country surrounding this
city, in addition to those now being
used. 1t is also understood that we have
valuable deposits of fire clay and other
materials awaiting development Lime
is found in great abundance just north
ofhere, along the line Of the Spokane and
Northern road, and sand is available in
various places. Granite and other stone
exists in exhaustless quantities all about
us. There will be more call, however
for good brick clay than for any other
material, and those having knowledge of
the existence Of such clay deposits may
aid in rebuilding our city by making
known the facts to the REVIEW. 1t is
much better for us to make the bricks
we need than to ship them from a
distance. We aspire to become man.

supply our own demands, where we
have the native material, rather than
ship from distance.

A BASKET of luscious peaches handed
in to the REVIEW office yesterday by
Thomas Cheesman, who resides only a
Il mile or so east of this city, affords the
best of proof that fruits Of fine quality
and excellent flavor may be produced in
this section. Early settlers feared that
frosts would make it difficult to raise
peaches with success in this vicinity and
were deferred In many instances from
putting out orchards. Those who had
better faith are now well rewarded with
good crops. The sample lot left with
the editor by Mr.. Cheesman could not
be excelled even in California for deli.
cacy of tint and flavor and if such pro.
ducts may be obtained here, even
though not every year, it will be worth
