james S. Clark has managed the
treasurer's Office with such ability and
skill, and has given such genaral salts
faction to the people that he surely de-
serves the support which he is receiving.
The majority which will be given him

accommodating gentleman, a respected
citizen and ali indulgent, faithful public
servant.
The kid band, accompanied by
large delegation, went to Spokane Falls
yesterday to take part in the exercises
of children's day at the exposition. The
boys have had new uniforms made and
wore them yesterday for the first time.

yesterday were Mr.. and Mrs. True, DIR.
and Mrs. Webb, Mrs. Reed, Mrs. e. 4.
Letterman and Mrs. U. NJ. Cosper.
H. Vanderborg, of Colfax, who was
we'll known in Whitman county, COM
mitted suicide last Tuesday by drown
ing. He feared that he was becoming
insane, and this SO preYed upon him
that he took his own life. His body
was recovered from the mill race, Tues
day, by Harry DePledge, Thos. Amos
and Oliver Hall. Mr.. Yanderborg left
letters for his wife and Harry DePledge,
stating that he preferred death to in
sally. ha funeral was he4d from the
residence Of Mr. DePledge Thursday at
one o'clock.
u. NJ. Cosper has opened his
elegant new City restaurant. 1t is con-
Quoted in the best possible manner
throughout, and the cooks and walters
are Of the best-no Cinnamon employed.
One advantage which it possesses is the
printed bill of fare, and guests can Sc
lect the dinner from it at leisure and not
have a mess of bad English shouted into
their ear of which they can make out
but few words. II you take your
meals at the City restaurant you can
get what you wish and have it just as
you wish to eat it.
Senator John 3. Allen spoke in
Reaney's hall, last Wednesday evening,
to large audiance The kid band was
out in force and rendered music for the
occasion, amp a hugh bonfire set enthu-
siasm to the highest pitch. The senator
compimented Pullman upon her rapid
development, her energy as displayed in
rebuilding, and upon her fine artesian
wells. Politically he discussed the sill
yer and tariff questions, making the
points pertaining thereto very clear.
He left for Palouse City Thursday morn
ing, where he spoke in the evening.
There is gang Of petty thieves in
town whom it would be we'll to look out
for. One OF them became more bold than
usual last Monday night, and as George,
the young son of J. NJ. Palmerton, was
going home a solitary man stepped out
from near one of the elevators on the
Union Pacific railroad, and using the
usual dime novel expression, your
money or your Iife," clutched the boy
bv the collar. George was badly
frightened, and yielded up the seventy
five cents which he had in his pocket
very gracefully. As soon as he was re-
leased he ran home and two men started
out in search of the highwayman, but
he wasn't found If an incident of this
kind again occurs a vigilance committee
should be formed and the bold robber
treated in a manner worthy of the oc-
casion.
Pullman is now in the front rank IN
regard to the school question. With
energetic and experienced teachers, am
ple facilities and fine apparatus we bid
fair to have one Of the best schools ii
eastern Washington. The citizens are
wide awake to the advantages of a good
school and will give the teachers their
L united support. There are few things
vet needed which should be no longer
neglected. Wet weather will soon be
here. and to allow the children to wade
through mud, sit all day with wet feet
NAV mean sickness at any time. By ali
means let us have good ten-foot side
walk to the school house door, This is
a serious matter and should be attended
to at once. What are few dollars com
pared to the lives and happiness of the
