THE GROWTH OF WASHINGTON

THE growth and development Of the
state of Washington" said prominent
journalist the other day, lis simply mar
velous." The place knew as boy has
been transformed. A new civilization
seems TO have entered the border OF the
state: enterprise, modern ideas, and i'm
proved methods are the order Of the day.
The species moss back is no longer known,
except perhaps in isolated cases. The
people are quick to perceive the natural
advantages on all sides. and no where
have ! seen the exemplifcation of their
enterprise better than in the city OF Fair
haven These words coming from the
mouth Of one who is close observer are
surely most gratifying. and while this
city has certainly made the most progress
OF any place in this state
We should not, by any means,
stop where we are. While as yet politi-
cal party lines have not been drawn, IL is
only question Of time when they will be,
and before that time shall arrive it is the
duty OF each citizen In the corporate
limits of this city to lend helping hand
in the cause Of the chamber OF commerce
for from that Institution should come
the mandates which will mould such laws
both municipal and commercial as shall
be most beneficial to the well being Of this
city. The powers Of an institution hav-
ing for its objects the improvement Of the
community cannot be over estimated. for
In the halls OF congress, the state legis.
lature and the common council our pub.
lie officers are always glad to be advised
by the chambers Of commerce from the
different clties-for IL is there that the
true desires Of the people are made mani.
fest-for no political differences there ex'
list and the people can express their tru,
desire and discuss subjects Of vital public
importance on common ground.

AN URGENT NECESSITY

The necessity of commencing thorough
and systematic course Of advertisement OF
this community becomes more apparent
every day, for that is the only means
whereby we may attract the attention OF
the manufacturers and those seeking good
and permanent investments. Not only
should the advantages Of the city of Fair
haven be heralded TO the world at large,
and the history Of her remarkable growth
and continuous pHgress be told, but
there should be gathered specimens Of
agriculture, neatly arranged and labelled
and placed In proper place under the
care of some competent person who
should be able TO direct people to parts of
the country best adapted TO their wants;
in fact regular bureau of information
should be established at once. This
practicable method of advertisement
is most desirable and truthful
way of bringing to the people our re-
sources for then the products talk for
themselves. The great expositions TO be
held at Spokane Falls and Portland this
fall should each contain a collection Of
resources of Whatcom county. Our coal,
coke, iron, lumber and agricultural prod
ucts should be seen by the visiting multi
tudes. A proper quantity and quality Of
advertising literature should also be dis
tributed at these great fairs and then
when the Worlds Fair comes along in
1898 Whatcom county and the city of
Fairhaven should and must be there in
full force with their working clothes on.
This work can be most quickly and best
done by the chamber of commerce, and in
our opinion should be attended TO AT once

whole silver product of this country and
directing the issuance OF full legal tender
treasury notes, is rapidly putting new life
into every channel OF trade and industry.
The reported crop failures, according TO
old theories, would portend general busi-
ness disasters, but nothing Of the kind is
apparent. Prices are advancing on all
articles for sale and new markets are
being opened for products that but recent
ly were unstable. The prospects Of a
greater volume of currency have induced
thousands of capitalists 10 seek invest
ments, and those who have money TO loan
are eager 10 renew mortgages. Interest
is decreasing and offers of money multi
plying. Cowardly cash, that always
hides away and refuses TO be part Of the
circulating medium in times of financial
doubt and business depression, is coming
to the light. and that which short time
ago was only an apparent amount OF
circulating medium will soon become
real
BY this new law nearly sl00.0O,000
heretofore lying idle in the treasury, will
soon be put into circulation, besides the
annual increase OF about sa5O0,0O by the
issuance of new legal tender treasury
notes. This is the kind OF work the
republican party does when it has full
control of national legislation and the
relief that will soon come to agriculture
will convince the Farmers Alliance and
the labor organizations that their best
hopes OF redress lie In continuing the
republican party in power in the three
branches of national legislation. Had
democracy held control Of the presidency,
the senate or the lower house. the silver
bill would have been defeated and great
financial crisis would have swept the
country. The democrats pretended to
favor silver legislation, but voted against
the bill because it did not enact absolute
free coinage. but that pretense was only
for the purpose Of defeating the republic
can measure, which Is now the law and
is rapidly bringing relief.
In the last congress the democrats, haV-
ing control of the house. defeated much
needed revision of the tariff, and should
that party again get control by this years
congressional elections, the wheels of
legislation will again be clogged. The
agricultural interests OF the west, through
the republican party, have readiusted the
monetary system of the government, and
the same influences will readjust the tariff
TO meet the changed conditions and new
demands of the west. Henceforth the
great Mississippi valley, instead OF the
eastern states. will control the legislation
on these two great financial questions,
and the elements of progress. the politi-
cal elements that have secured to this
country all the great reforms we now en-
Joy, are found only in the republican
party. and more can he accomplished
through this channel. by that large ele-
ment engaged In agriculture. than 1t can
possibly hope to attain through that party
whose soul and brains lie in the gulf and
southeastern states and whose only aim
in life is 10 keep up the color line, the
race problem. a political caste and the
carrying Of elections by fraud instead OF
arguments, by force instead of persuasion

THE SCHOOL QUESTION

One Of the most pressing needs Of Fair
haven today is another school building
large enough 10 accommodate at least
400 pupils. and located conveniently.
The present building, even with the addi-
tons which are now being made TO it. is
totally inadequate. 1t is safe TO assume
that not more than one-half of the chill
dren OF school age in Fairhaven can be
received at all, and those only on condi-
tions which greatly hamper or entirely
prevent satisfactory training. The school
directors do not appear TO appreciate the
situation. They content themselves with
discussing the remote possibility Of
erecting building away east Of
the present centre Of population and do
absolutely nothing TO relieve the over
crowded condition Of the Douglas street
school. Why not rent building OF
rooms. or lease ground and put upa tenn
porary building. 30 that FairhaVen'
school children may be provided for until

The work of improving the river will
now be pushed forward with all possible
dispatch. Col. Merrill fully realizes the
great importance of this work, and he
will keep the snag and dredge boats
steadily at work from now on until the
weather forces a suspension OF the the
same. The numerous distractions In
the river between Pittsburgh and Gin
cinnati are now being moved out of the
way by the snagboat Woodruff
The new steamer II. NJ. Stanley,
building for the Bay Bros. at IrontOn,
will not be completed for several weeks
yet: her boilers were condemned by the
Inspectors, and were taken out and sup
piled with new ones. But for this she
would have been completed long ago.
When finished she will probably take
the place OF the Lizzie Bay while the
Bay is being heightened fifteen feet and
supplied with larger cylinders.
A war in rates is being waged between
the st. Lonis and Tennessee River
Packet Company and the Evansville,
Paducah and Tennessee River Packet
Company for the Tennessee river passen-
ger and freight business. Passengers
are now carried at 81 apiece, regardless
of the distance. Flour is transported
from the Tennessee river points to mar
ket for Is cents a barrel and packages
at 10 cents per 100 pounds. The st.
Louis and Tennessee River Packet Com
pany accuses its adversary with having
broken agreements with it and other
wise annoyed it in its business, and has
determined to fight 1t on the rate ques-
ton. These two companies had a
tedious war few years ago, when the
Evansville company began running its
boats to this city, which ended in the
withdrawal Of the Evansville company'S
boats from the st. Louis trade. The
present warfare, however, has been con-
fined chiefly to the passenger business.

After the reading had been completed,
the Committee went over the accounts,
item by item, carefully comparing them
aud checking them of, and as result
the statement was approved. and will be
sent into Council. In addition to the
face Of the statement, the Collector was
given credit for SlS6 on account OF dog
tax. and was allowed $40. 10 for postage,
q total OF S92G.10.
While Mr. MyleS' delinquent list is
larger than that presented by Collector
Brcc, last year. Mr. MyleS is entitled
to none the less credit Mr.. Brice did
not make his settlement until the month
Of December, about nine or ten weeks
later than the date of Mr.. MyleS' state
mcnt, which makes big difference.
Mr.. MyleS was also thrown back a great
deal in his collections by the long strike
in the building trades. which crippled
good many people financially, who
would otherwise have paid up.
These de,inquentS will pay up in the
future With these allowances Mr..
Myles' delinquent list would be very
small one. hc having made a great
record on prompt collections all during
the summer.
During the evening Ex-Collector Brice
appeared and stated that through an
error in the footngs last year, the city
got the best Of him to the extent OF STOP.
The committee ascertained the claim
was just one, and made the proper
allowance.

Who Seems to be Wanted In Number oi
Localities.
The RECI~rEE has mentioned the ar
rival of the colorcd thief. Charles Ring
20. vino was arrested i'm Pittsburgh last
week, and brought here by Officer
shorts. on charge of stealing from
residence out the pike. II was also
mentioned that Ringgo had been fixed
upon as the man who stole gold watch
from Mr.. Dye, of Washington. Pa. In
formation has been received by Chief
Delbruggc since then that Ringgo is
also wanted in Moundsyillc and Pitts
burgh. for burglarieS. and there is pref
~ good evidence that he is the thief
who raided number of places along the
! line OF the National road east Of this
city and over in Pennsylvania. Ringgo
seems to be pretty slick. He is n resi-
dent of Pittsburgh. but makes frequent
excursions into the country within one
hundred miles or so of that city, always
aiming TO leave, do job, and get back
home the same day, SO that his absence
would not bc noted. and to allow him a
good show to prove an alibi if cornered.
Mr. Dye came down from Little Wash
ington yesterday and positively idcnti-
fled Ringg0 as the man who stole his
gold watch
Riuggo was arraigned before Justice
Davis, yesterday, whore he waived an
examination, and was committed in
default Of $1,000 bail for the grand jury.
