The following from the Wallula
Herald is gospel that will fit very well
in Pullman:
Ten thousand trees should be planted
in Wallula next fall by the residents, on
their enclosed grounds, and another ten
thousand in the lots that should be en-
closed. These trees would soon double
the value of property and help in bring
ing in very desirable class OF inhab-
itants.

ment of G. W. Moore and wife, inflicted
its presence upon Pullman, Monday and

the press to collect their money in adj

who announces its coming, as the man
ager repudiates the contracts made by
his representative.
w. R. Carithurs, of the Paradise
roller mill, Moscow, was in town last
week, arranging for the introduction and
sale of his flour. It is claimed that
under the new management the Moscow

Mr.. G. proposes to build small ware
house here and keep on hand a full sup
ply of flour, feed, etc, if he cannot get
it on our market in any other way.
1t is said that on the morning of
April 80, 1889, at o'clock, by previous
arrangement, the church bells all over
the country will ring to celebrate the
event of one hundred years ago, when
the church bells throughout the thirteen
states rang out to call the people to-
gether to pray for the success and pros

of the United States.

Manager Wells' benefit.

The Olympic theater was packed from
parquette to gallery last night, the oc-
casion being complimentary benefit
rendered to Billy Wells, the popular
manager of the house, and the box re-
ceipts showed it to be one of the largest
benefits ever given any attache of the
theater. The programme opened with a
march composed by James Murray, treas
urer of the theater, rendered by the First
Regiment band, which was followed by
large number of pleasing specialties
by local artists. holding the audience
until after midnight. Among the spe-
cialty artists who took part were Miss
Josie Slater, Miss May Horribly. Heath

HAsKELL's PUNISHMENT.

Between them, President HARRISON
and Secretary BLAINE have at length
discovered that Illinois is state in Che
American Union, although it is given
second rank, and since the discovery
the small-sized official plums have been
falling quite rapidly in that direction.
The latest Illinois appointment was that
of CLARK E. CARR to the Danish mis-
sion, who, like FRANK PALMER and
ASA MATTHEWS, grabbed his grip, threw
his coat over his arm, and started Oh a
dead run to the depot to take train for
Washington, as soon as he heard of his
appointment. The only unpleasant
feature a6out Mr.. CARR'S appointment
is that it brings disappointment to the
bright and handsome young editor OF
the Minneapolis Tribune. WILLIAM E.
HASKELL, who had his heart and hopes
set on getting this mission as COM
pensation for his failure to secure
better post at Stockholm. Washington
dispatches allege that the rejection of
Mr.. HAsKELL's application was due to
an editorial article in his paper, which
was printed at the time of Mr.. CLEvE-
LANDS visit to the Northwest. and that
the HARRISON administration embraced
this opportunity to punish the indis-
Greet editor for speaking disrespect-
fully of those in authority. 1t is singu-
lar that such an exhibition of partisan
zeal should fail Of recognition by this
administration. yet the incident serves
to impress the lesson that everything
has its limit, even the proprieties of
partisan politics.

MUSCULAR CHRISTIANITY!

A Minneapolis Man Preserves
Order in the General Assembly.
NEW YORK. May fat to-day's ses-
sion of the Presbyterian general assem-
bly,, Rev. j. f. Smith continued his
paper on union in mission work with
the Southern church. He prefaced his
remarks by pointing out the necessity
for evangeliZing the cOlOred portion of
the population, and said that the South
ern church recognized that the status.
of the colored people was the same as
that of the white people. The negroes,
Mr.. Smith said, looked forward to
separate African church. That may
come about, said the speaker, but
while the question of organic union be-
tween the church in the North and in
the South lies in allegiance we
must content ourselves with unit
ing Oh less important questions.
Judge Samuel NJ. Breckenridge, of st.
Louis, presented minority report,
stating that nothing less than organic
union between both churches would
prove satisfactory. Both reports will
be printed and laid before the assembly.

A FALSE ALARM.

There are always alarmists in every
community, who see real danger where
there are only shadows, and are in
constant state of nervous excitement for
fear that some dire calamity is going to
befall the community. They are here
in st. Paul, just as they are everywhere
else. and the direction their fears have
recently taken is that Chicago is going
to rob this city of its importance as a
railway center and commercial metropo-
lis by bringing all the st. Paul railroads
no argument to prove that such fears
are groundless; for while Chicago, like
every other growing city, is ambitious,
and, doubtless, is willing to contribute
all within it's power to choke off rivals,
still, the railroad companies, like all
other associations organized for bust
ness purposes, are not influenced by
mere local pride or considerations
to their own disadvantage. st.
Paul is a railway center because
the railroad companies found it profit
able to build their lines here, and as
long as they are managed OH business
principles it will make but little differ
ence whether they are under the man
agement of Chicago men, New York
men. or st. Paul men. Still, as mat
ter of local pride, it is gratifying to us
whenever st. Paul man is selected for
an important position in the manage
ment of any one of our numerous roads,
and we accept it as an evidence of our
recognition as an important railway
center. In contest for position be-
tween st. Paul man and Chicago
man, our influence would always be for
the st. Paul man; but if the Chicago
man should be chosen, that would afford
no occasion for alarm that our COM
mercial power is to be taken from us.
Our commerce and our railway inter-
ests rest on too stable basis to be dis
turbed by the fluctuations of ordinary
railway management.

ADJUSTMENTS.

The repetition of the benefit bill at
the Peoples last night proved wise
move, for the house was crowded, and
the recitations by Mr.. Hill and Mr..
Johnson were as heartily received as
before. The same bill will be given at
all performances until and including
Sunday night.
The third concert of the Amphlon
club drew large crowd to the First
Baptist church yesterday evening.
Though not enthusiastic, it was a most
appreciatlve crowd, composed for the
Those who attended were favored with
a rare treat, the performance from
beginning to end being of the very
highest order. Barnby's sacred idyll
''Rebekah" was given by the club, with
Mrs. D. F. De Wolf, soprano; A. s..
Willoughby, tenor. and G. 81. BIgelow,
Jr., baritone, as soloists. Mrs. De Wolf
has sweet voice of sufficient capacity
to fill an auditorium of the size of the
Baptist church, and sang her part with
thorough appreciation of the feelings
expressed. Her high tones are clear as
a flute. and her low, soft and mellow as
golden bell. Mr.. WilIoughby sang the
tenor solos we'll; his voice is most salts
factory in quality, though not of very
great compass. In his duets with Mrs.
De Wolf the sweetness of his
voice added much to the ex-
pressive effect of the lovely
music. MIR. Bigelow had not much OPP
portunity, but demonstrated that he
had baritone voice of considerable
beauty. Miss Emma Hess played the
"Wedding March" and "Elfin Music"
by MendelssOhn, as arranged by List.
Her execution is decidedly brilliant,
but her performance lacked soul. Bar
RVS chorus for five voices, 30 Holy
Night was rendered with wonderful
softness ond beauty. The Mendelssohn
Merrill, first tenor: A. s. Willoughby,
second tenor; u. r. Colville, baritone,
and j. L. Whelan, bassO. sang ''Lady,
Let the Rolling Drums" by Shepard,
and one of Schubert's serenades in
really fine style. They all have good
voices, and the quartette is well bal
anced. The chorus gave Governs
"Ladybird'' and Memberships "May
Song" and 1.-The Lark's Song" with
good effect, their attack showing abun-
dant practice, being made with deci-
sion. D. F. Colville acted as conduct
or, and demonstrated considerable abil-
ity in that line.
Miss Lillian Curry Morton and the
young members of her class at Baldwin
seminary gave practice recital yester-
day evening, which was largely at
tended, principally by friends of the
children. A most happily selected pro-
gramme was opened by Miss Morton
playing two of Schubert's impromptus.
She also closed by playing three pieces
by Bach, Schumann and Paderewski.
The children who took part were Maud
and Flossie Messner, Katie Stevens,
Bessie Hudson, Clara and Katie Winker.
They all demonstrated wonderful ability
in the execution of compositions by
such masters as Moscheles, Mendels-
sohn, Schumann, Voss and StreabbOg.
The sale of seats for the Thatcher,
Primrose & West entertainments began
yesterday. A large number of choice
Sittings were disposed of.

A FAMILY MISTAKE.

President HARRIsoN's Partially for
his own family in the matter of dis
tributing public Offices has already be-
come by-word, although his admins
tratiOn has not been in power quite
three months. He is even more consid-
crate of his relatives than the late
ARTENIAs WARD. for he is not only
willing to sacrifice his own blood kin on
the altar of his country, but he is reach
ing out for all who are connected with
the HARRISON family by marriage. The
Good Book enjOins it as duty upon the
head of family to make provision for
those of his own household, and 1t is
possible that the president is more in
clined to be guided by Scriptural influ-
ences than by political considerations.
If he were less of Bible student and
more of politician, he would undoubt-
edly know that his nepotic policy is
rapidly using up his political capital,
and that with each additional appoint
ment of kinsman to Office his chances
for a second term grow beautifully less.
But it so happens that the provision of
the law. some time ago enacted by con-
gress, which prohibits the appointment
of two persons of the same family to
places in the same department does not
cover the presidents case. There is no
legal restriction upon nepotism, and
during the four years of his term he will
have full swing in providing for the ex-
tensiye HARRISON family at public ex-
penSe.
Still, if the president were man of
larger caliber, he would probably make
all effort to subordinate his selfish in
stincts to the demands of patriotism. 1t
has, perhaps, never occurred to him
that he is setting precedent which, if
followed by other administrations, will
work disastrously to republican institu-
tons. 1t will destroy that equality of
opportunity which is the boast OF our
institutions, and will substitute aristo-
cratic privilege ill its place. 1t will
come to pass that the accident of birth
will count for more in our national af-
fairs than individual merit or patriot
ism. If there is any one point upon
which the people of this country are
sensitive, it is the one which the presi-
dent has either ignored or condemned.
Hereditary nobility can have no place
in a republican government, and every
thing that has tendency in that direc-
ton at once exeites popular ridicule.
President HARRISON is making grave
mistake by this public manifestation of
partiality for his kinsmen, and if he
only had the wisdom to see the error of
his way. he might yet manageto elevate
himself in the respect of his country
men.
