1t is an exceeding difficult mat
ter. nowadays, TO place ones fin
ger on the map of Puget Sound
without covering up an embryo
townsite. It is not essential that
the plat be located upon an old set
tiers farm, or that there be any
buildings to mark the spot from
the water, for the real estate man,
who has the site in charge, finds
abundant resources, prospect, deep
water and other facilities to war
rant its being, and at the office In
p near city, its lots are launched
on the market, unsight-unseen, at
fancy prices. Of course al inves-
tor can hardly lose, by an. invest
at any point on Puget Sound, but
he can realize much sooner at some
points than others, owing to more
real and essential advantages. Lots
sell for inflated values at many of
such points down the Sound, while
here at Shelton prices are reason.
able and value received. Fortunes
are not made here in a day, but
good homes and a reasonable for
tune can be made, with no risk,
whatever, as in booming town.

1t is best to go slow in the crea-
ton Of new counties, says the Re-
view. 1t too often happens in the
development Of the Western States
that new counties are created to help
the real estate market in the pros
pective county seats. But in few
years taxes become burdensome,
county scrip is at a discount, roads
and bridges are no better, more Off
cial mouths are to be fed and the
people soon realize that it might
have been better, after all, to have
gone little farther to attend the
semi-annual court sessions and 9TH
er occasions that called them to
the county seat. A fair sized coun-
ty, out Of debt, county buildings
paid for, taxes low, warrants at par,
is preferable to q small county, in
debt, no county buildings worthy
the name, scrip at so cents on the
dollar, taxes high and periodic Cos
sip about disorganizins the county.
Paying taxes lie no luxury and the
less of it we have to do the more
comfort there is in life.

that Standard Oil Rockefeller was pre-
pairing to cndow a $2O,OOO,OLO Baptist
University in this city appeared in the

there was an editorial string attached to
the news in the shape OF declaration to
the effect that the thing was only "seri-
ously contemplated. Mr.. Rockefeller
now puts an end to the whole business
by saving that his COM 'n.platio.. OF The
great enterprise has not even been scri
ols."
regret the publication, not only be-
cause 1t was premature and disappoint
ing, but especially because ofits hurttul
influence on our Baptist people. Too
many oi thvin are waiting Tor MIR. ROckc-
iellcr to do great things for them. They
had better go to work and help them
