work and at the same time would come wi thin the

1t was perfectly apparent to everyone that it
was an imposition to be charged 800 for a type

hands Of monopoly, who said simply 'sthe public

A National Flow er.

Considerable has been said by the
press about national flower" many
favOring the clover blossom. An ex-
change gives the. following terse ex-
preston of the clover by Col. G. Inger-
soil: "A wonderful thing is clover.
1t means honey and cream; that is to
say, industry and contentment; the
happy bees in perfumcd fields, and at
the cottage gate old boss, the bounti-
full, chewing satisfaction's cud, in that
blessed twilight pause that like a
benediction falls between all toll and
sleep. This clover makes me dream
of happy hours, of childhood's rosy
cheeks, of dimpled babes, Of wholesome,
loving wives, of springs and brooks
and violets, and all there is of painless
Joy and human life. A wonderful
word is clover. Drop the &c" and you
have the happicst of mankind. Take
away the 'cl" and "r" and you have the
only thing that makes a heaven of
this dull and barren earth. Cut off
the r. alone and there remains warm
deceitful bud that sweetcns breath and
keeps the peace in countless homes
whose masters frequent clubs"

A Suit Against the State.
Post-Intelligencer.


What is probably the first action
brought against the new State of
Washington was filed this week by
the law firm of Green & Turner, in
the Superior Court.
The title of the suit is Thomas NJ.
Alvord vs. the State of Washington,
the plaintiff being well-known citi-
zen OF King county. Its brought
under the new law passed short
time ago by the Legislature, entitled
An act for the relief OF bona fde pur-
chasers of school and university lands
heretofore sold under authority of
laws enacted by the Territory" etc.
Mr.. Alvord seeks confirmation of his
title to 1853 acres of university land in
the White river valley which he pur-
chased in 1864, and 400 acres which he
purchased in 1866. At the time he
bought these lands he paid the regu-
lar price for valley land, but up to the
present time has never received
sufficient title. The decision of the
suit will settle the title to a large
amount of land in the State similarly
situated to that of Mr.. Alvord's.
Senate bill No. LAG, which after
wards became the law under which
the suit is brought, was drawn up
for just such cases as this one, and its
provisions are such that there will be
no trouble in securing verdict for the
plaintiff.

REALTY AS AN INvEsTMENT-The
Hon. Benjamin +. Butler, has lately
said that a long life of experience and
observation had convinced him
real estate is the best investment that
can be made with money. Business
enterprises are likely, upon the law of
averages, to fail sooner or later. Realty
is the safest OF all forms OF investment,
And realty in the State of Washington,
and in its thriving towns and cities,
where values are still low as compared
with values elsewhere, must be the
best and safest of all such property
anywhere The moral is obvious. The
idle capital of the east can do nothing
so advantageous as to come to WASH
ington and invest in land either in the
towns or in the farming regions.

Olives Will be High.

Quite likely those who love olives
will find them an expensive luxury
this year. Table olives have gone up
10 per cent. in Spain. the country
from which most of the olives brought
to the United States are imported.
The cause is short crop. Last year
about 100000 gallons of Spanish olives
were brought to this country. This
year scarcely two-thirds as many will
be imported. The crop of 1889 be-
gan to come in early in January.
This crop was harvested in August
and September. In the olive growing
region of Spain olives are gathered by
the farmers and sold to local shop
keepers. These sell to wholesalers,
and the latter prepare the olives for
export. Olives intended for table use
are first saponifed, which means
escaped" :" that is, the olives are treated
with alkalis to neutralize the oil.
When this process is finished the
olives are put in brine and in due
time they are exported. They reach
this country in kegs, barrels and hogs
head, holding from fifteen to $50 gal.
Ions.
The French olives come in packages
containing from Is to $50 gallons
| The smallest Spanish olives are larger
than the largest French olives and the
finest Spanish olives are selected TO,
expectation to this country because
people here are willing to pay The
highest price for the best.
The largest Spanish olives are the
Repabrones. Of the largest of these
about thirty-five make a pound. 1t i,
an unusually fine olive, however
that weighs half an ounce. AfteI
the Repadrones comes the Padrones
then the Mediavas and r einas, O.
Queen olives. There is also a rount
Spanish olive known as the "littl,
apple" besides many varieties un
known here.

THE OLD STEAMER BEAVER.
Her Captain Gives s ONE Reminiscen-
ces Of Pioneer Stea mboating.

Many an old Puget Sounder remem-
bers all about the old steamer Bearer
the first steamboat on the Pacific coast,
and they will be interested in a story
told of her by Captain Rudlin, who
commanded her in the palmy days Of
thirty years ago. The Old steamers $
hulk lies on the rocks near Vancouver,
and her old master is captain of the
fine steamer Islander. In an inter
view with-a Victoria, (B. C-3-GOlen ist
reporter, the old captain said dreamily:
"Ah, yes, there's wonderful differ
ence between the steamboats, of her
day and those now. Here's the Islande,
carrying 16O pounds OF steam, while
the Beaver used to carry only from two
and half to ten pounds. l have towed
vessels with a pressure of between two
and half and five pounds.
81 mind one OCCASION" said the cap
tain, with smile, "the engineer told
me there was hole in one Of the
boilers. l asked him what we should
do, but he said he thought he could
fix it. He got two or three sacks.
rolled them together and jammed them
into the hole. We were towing the
w. H. Bessie, vessel carrying about
Zoo tons of coal and we got her in.
"TO show you what little steam she
carried, there was one winter, it was
pretty cold coming up the gulf, when
the steam gauge of the engine was
frozen on several occasions. OF course
this didn't interfere with her running.
Jimmy Wallace was engineer at the
time. The pipe was frozen as well as
the gauge, but we went along right
enough.
"How do l look at the boats now as
compared with the old timers? Well,
l think they've made great improves
ments. The old Bearers pistons use
to be packed with rope, which was
burned out or the steam would blow it
out sometimes, and, no matter where
we were, we would have to stop and
fix it. Now they have everything fitted
up with rings and plates in splendid
style" "DOn't you think, captain,
that it is sort of sacrilege to allow
the old thing to go to ruin as she is?"
81 think it's shame to allow her to
lie there. She ought to be taken down
and made into sleeve buttons, brooches,
anything you like, to preserve her
memory. There's hardly a man in
town who would not give so cents or
81 for pair of sleeve buttons made
from the lever of the first steamship
that was ever in the Pacific"
Dear, dear" soliloquized the captain,
"when she first came to this coast she
frightened the wits out OF the poor In
dians who ran into the woods and hid
themselves when they saw her. They
thought it was the devil that came up
smoking, putting and steaming; but
they soon got over that, and it was
necessary to put up boarding to keep
them away.

The Storage Battery.

Some time ago an Eastern firm of.
fered large sum of money to any
one who would solve the electrical
storage battery problem. General
Greedy, Chief of the Signal Service Of
flee, made a statement to the effect
that while the greatest need OF the
age is an economic storage battery, its
construction is impossible. Now
comes the news from Detroit that an
inventor named Woodward has made
a discovery that covers just what Gen
eral Greedy declared to be impossible.
Great confidence is expressed in the
invention, and a syndicate with nearly
half million of capital stock has
been formed to build extensive works
for the manufacture OF battery and
motors at Chicago. The tests made on
the street railways in Detroit are said
to be satisfactory in every respect, and
in that city the economic propulsion
of street cars be electricity delivered
from storage batteries is now a fixed
fact and the days of the horse car and
overhead electric car are numbered.
If this report is true, and there is
no reason to doubt it, there is good
cause for rejoicing. With the perfec-
ton of the storage battery the propul-
sion of light vehicles by steam and
animals will be at an end. The I'M
slightly poles and overhead wires of
our present electric street railway sys-
tenn will have to come down, and dam
gerOus as well as inconvenient OBJ
stacles will be removed. Let us all
welcome the advent of the storage
haftprv

The Democrats now have a case
they may get into the Supreme Court
to test the constitutiOnality of the act
of the Speaker in counting members
who do not vote TO make q quorum.
They refrained from voting on the
Dingley worsted bill and it was passed
by 13S affirmative votes, the Speaker
counting the quorum. 1t is the pur-
pose of importers to resist the opera
ton of the bill if it is passed by the
Senate and receives the Presidents
signature. BY taking test case to
the courts when an attempt is made
to collect the duty imposed on wor-
steds by the bill, they can get the
question before the Supreme Court.

Mosrof farmers would like to be al

MOSTof farmers would like to be able
to tell when it is going to be clear
weather or otherwise. A very reliable
sign OF stormy weather is when the
sun rises clear and shortly goes into a
cloud. This indicates the presence OF
rapidly condensing moisture in the
atmosphere, which is likely to fall
soon as rain. A lurid color of the sky
at sunrise, halos around the sun and
moon, "a rainbow in the morning.
and "the sun drawing water" are due
to the cause, and arc all omens OF
stormy weather.

THE first chrysanthemum, so far 40
is known was introduced into England,
about 1874, and was fOwered for the
first time in November of the following
year, in the famous nurseries of Mr..
Cabill, Kings road, Chelsea, from
which place many plants were first
sent out, which have since become ia
miliar varieties, among them being the
camelia. The first blossoms were of a
deep crimson color and had a flower
of but two inches in diameter, and the
petals were twisted like porcupine's
quills.

A NEW scheme among the lumber
men is to cut down trees by means of
a wire so charged with electricity as to
be maintained at a white heat. The
companies which furnish the plant
will probably be quite ready to guar
antee that the wire will cut down the
trees and at the same time will 60 on
the stand and solemnly aver that it
cannot kill a live man or an inoffen-
siye customer.

Dudley and Harrison.

Washington Dispatch to the st. Louis Repablic
"You would be surprised if YOU
knew how bitterly some of w. w.
Dudly's friends feel towards the Presi-
dent" said friend of the blocks Of
five patriot to-day. Col. Dudley, you
understand, has positively not been
near the White House since Harrison
sent him several verbal invitations
to call, but Col. Dudley insists upon
having a written invitation that he
can show to his friends, and if need
be publish to the world. It has not
been forthcoming.
"a story l heard on this subject deals
with Mrs. Dudley and Mrs. Harrison,
and l understand there are unimpeach
able witnesses to its correctness. On
entering one of the capitals leading
dry goods shops Mrs. Harrison espied
Mrs. Dudley engaged in the purchase OF
dainty and seasonable bit OF headgear.
Sailing up to her with much empress
ment, Mrs. Harrison held out her
hand and exclaimed: MY dear Mrs.
Dudley, how do you do?'
"Then with perfect appreciation OF
her opportunity and full intention of
imprOyiny il to the ntmost Mrs nudla,,
elevated her nose slightly and said in
distinct and cruelty cold voice: you
have the advantage OF me Madame! /
do not know YOU Yes you do know
me very well Mrs. Dudley said Mrs.
Harrison, and turning on her heel she
left the shop. Mrs. Dudley has related
with considerable satisfaction how she
snubbed the wife of the ungrateful Ben,
and the breach is wider than ever"
