A Seasonable Suggestion.
EDITOR OLYMPIAN:

EDITOR OLYMPIAN:
Allow me through the columns of
your paper, to call attention to mat
ter of great Importance to US, VIZ:
The permanent location of the Capital.
The City of Olympia has it within
its power to have the Capital perma-
nently located here, and to have it
done in the next two months. 1t We
would show One-tenth the interest in
this matter that an individual would
in canvass efiecting his personal in
terests, we would certainly be success
full. 1t will not be good policy to let
one election pass without an effort. 1t
will be much harder year from now
to secure a majority of all the votes
cast then than now. Then, too, the
interest Of both city and State require
that it should be settled as soon as
possible.
In order to accomplish this result,
we must conduct campaign, COM
pared with which an ordinary cam
paign will be but as child's play. A
large amount of printing and engrav-
ing must be done. We must have our
agents in every precinct; we must
print the tickets for the whole Terrific
ry; we must have a campaign fund.
Five thousand dollars is n small fund
for this work, but it is larger and will
accomplish more than twenty-five
thousand would at a second election.
The opportunity is golden the time
is ripe. Let committee of the best
politicians we have be appointed by
the citizens, to take this matter in
charge, and then back them up with
all the money they need, and such
other aid as we can give them. "a

CENTRALIA, Aug. 10, 1889.
DAILY OLYMPIAN:
The last new enterprise is the build
ing of steam laundry back of the
Merchants Hotel.
Ii is surprising how many strangers
leave the cars here every day and take
up their residence amongst us.
To-day has dawned bright and beau
tiful, the heavy atmosphere and the

One day last week, Mr.. Barnum's
son, while at work in their planning

avenue by Barnum & Romans, for
John Buchanan. Applications for

roof was commenced.
Messrs. Barnum & Romans were
quite unfortunate last week; in addi-
ton to young Barnum's accident,
their team engaged on the hill near
the Steinway building, started down
hill at a great rate and were stopped
by running into some plank which so
injured the breast of one of the horses
that it was necessary to shoot the ami
NAL right away; again on Monday
while their crew of men were at work
on the new stores, part of the scaffold-
ing gave way and a man named Man.
ming unfortunately got his wrist broke.
On Saturday at noon, as usual, Mr..
Butterworth locked his store and went
home to dinner. When he returned
to the store he found that the back
door had been broken open and all his
watches and rings to the amount oil
81 900 or 81 200 had been carried off.
Word was sent Immediately to neigh
boring towns, and citizens started in
all directions to hunt the daring thief.
At last accounts he had not been
found. This is the third time Mr..
Butterworth has suffered from robbery
in Centralia, and it comes pretty hard
on him this time. One hundred dol
lars or more is offered for the burglar.

LESSONS IN THRIFT.
Some Of the Weak Points Of the School
Savings Bank System.

Savings Bank System.
When attempts are made to give
what may be called practical lessons
In thrift to school children there Is
some danger that moral harm may be
done to them, not so much because of
the lessons themselves as because OF
the means employed to stimulate the
interest OF the pupils. School savings
banks have been established in many
European schools, and Long Island
City, having adopted the system, has
had it in operation for the last three
or four years. The purpose is very
good one, that of teaching the pupils
TO be economical and thrifty, and ma
terial results Of value are sometimes
reached where the small earnings OF
pupils, grown to respectable sum,
enable them to start in business after
leaving school. or are usefully en-
| plOyed to aid their further education
or to help their parents or for
other good purposes. From this
point OF view the school-sav.
ings bank appears to be entirely
commendable, yet one has only to read
the description of its workings, writ.
ten by an indiscriminate and thought
less supporter of the new system, to
see that it may be very harmful in
other ways. Short-sighted advocates
OF the system describe with some en-.
.husiasm the shame Of the boy or girl
who has nothing to deposit or only a
few cents, the pride of those who put
in fifty cents or dollar, and the envy
aroused in the breasts of those less
fortunate when they see one of their
number making large deposits. 1t is
assumed that. these feelings having
been excited, the savings bank will be
made great success, each pupil put.
ting away week after week as much
money as he Gun beg, earn and save.
| But the success of the savings bank
attained by these means is at the ex.
| pense of the moral character of the
pupils. The main purpose-that Of
moral training-is missed if the saw
ings bank is made successful by such
means. No system to be administered
| by all classes and kinds of teachers.
some with clear views of the moral pur-
| poses of the lessons, some with the idea
that the saving of money is the one OBJ
ject to be attained, and others indif-
| ferent as to the results of the lesson
upon character, can rightly be expect
| ed to meet with general success. 1t
may succeed in gathering large ag-
gregate of small sums and appear to
the unthinking to be doing q great
deal Of good, but, if it has done this at
the expense Of character, the money
gained is not an equivalent for the
| harm done. Until assurance can be
given that the teachers OF schools are
qualified to give lessons in morally,
they should not be called upon to ad-
minister system that may have a
most baneful influence upon character
under the pretense of developing good
habits in the pupils, These are, prop
erly, subjects for homo lessons, for
spiritual advisors, and for such teach
ers as have shown an Intelligent un-
derstanding of the small influences that
develop and build up character. BAL

fOOT-ROT IN SHEEP.
An Ohio Mans Experience In the Treat
ment OF the Disease.

A sheep-raiser in Ohio sends his cx-
periencc in the treatment Of foOt-rot in
sheep as follows:
"ln the first place, trim Zip the foot
in nice shape, but do not cut the hoof
away below the bottom of the foot;
leave it 80 it will protect the foot when
the sheep walks, SO that a part OF the
weight of the sheep will come on the
hoof. Now, we will suppose that we
have one OF the worst cases In the
flock. and the hoof Is nearly off; it
only hangs at the binding or the top
part. Take the blade of your knife
and pry the hooi and foot apart, and
with the thumb and finger sprinkle in
the opening pulverized vitriol. Then
take thin, smooth stick. that you
have made for the purpose, and push
the vitrol as far up as the hoof is loose
from the foot. About two applications
and you will not have any occasion to
yard your sheep to doctor them. Carry
in your vest-pocket a small tin box.
would say a waterproof cap box. filled
with the pulverized vitriol, and when
you see a sheep lame catch him and
treat him as before. You will see that
the dry vitriol will adhere to the sore
and stay right where you put it, and
not run off like liquid preparations,
and by leaving the hoof on you save
your sheep walking on the knees for a
month or two. The vitriol drys up the
sores and kills the germ. never want
the hOOf trimmed 50 close as to draw
the blood. | have bought sheep so
sore that they could not walk, their
feet full OF maggots, and with two ap-
plications they would walk off without
limping. By using the vitriol dry you
save the hoof OF your sheep. With any
liquid preparation you have to remove
the hoof to get at the parts affected. l
have had lambs not two weeks old with
sore feet. Foot rot of long standing
becomes blood disease, and is trans
mitted to the offspring; and him who
has a hundred or more sheep | would
advise to buy sulphur and resin in
quantity, and pulverize the resin and
mix liberally with salt and feed them. "

A New Cotton Fabric.

A new cotton fabric has been
patented in England. that is intended
as a substitute for chamois leather,
which it closely resembles in appear
ance. In making the cloth. cotton
yarns dyed a fast chromc-yellOw tint
form the warps. They are sized and
dressed in the usual manner. The
weft is not dyed and is spun soft.
After the fabric is woven from these
yarns, it is passed several times
through cylinder teasing or raising
machines, which break the surface
and form nap on either side OF the
cloth. 1t is then soap" finished to
impart to it the desired appearance
and soft, cold feel of chamois leather
1t may be used for all purposes, the
latter is: for either wet or dry clean
ing purposes and also as a polishing
clothing; for underclothing and for
Innings. AS it is a woven texture and
absorbent, it is more desirable from q
sanitary point of view for use in gar
ments than chamOis leather, and does
mot require to be perforated. 1t is
also capable of being washed repeat
odly without hardening. and will al
ways retain its softness, -DCmorcst's
