wALLA wALLA EXHIBITS.

The Freewater Exhibit Arrives-The
Garden City Exhibit.
ID. w. McDannald, of Walla
Walla, arrived in the city over the
Union Pacific Friday night with a
fine exhibit of fruits and vegetables
from t he fiourishing village of Free
water, situated on the Walla Walla
river, eight miles from the Garden
City. Mr.. McDannald had the mis-
fortune to have more than half his
grape exhibit stolen on the way
from Freewater to this city. The
car was sealed, and the theft must
have been committed while way
freight was being received or dis
charged. Mr.. McDannald regrets
his loss exceedingly, as the grape
exhibit was the most attractive of
the lot, and as the season Is about
over for Freewater grapes the ex-
hibit can not be duplicated. The
exhibit was taken out to- the expo
sition building yesterday afternoon.
Mr.. McDannlad says the Walla
Walla exhibit will not arrive until
after the close of the county fair,
which will begin on October 6 and
close on October IL. The choicest
exhibits at the fair will then be
brought to the exposition.

Young Men in Politics.

Lewiston Teller: One noticeable feat
ure Of the present campaign here is the
interest which young men are taking in
the discussions made of the issues.
Youths yet in their teens and young
men casting their first ballots, are found
discussing the issues with all the as
surance and enthusiasm of an old cam
paigner. This is most com mendable
feature. The vigor and enthusiasm OF
each party comes from its young men.
The old.timer is rapidly passing away.
HIS race Is we'll nigh run. The mantle
ofparty leadership must soon fall upon
younger shoulders. Let the young men
make careful study of party platfoi ms
and party history that the party vote
may represent an intelligent conception
Of the great issues not the result of party
prejudice or the influence Of political
demagogaes.
