FINDS HER MOTHER.
A Strange story Brought to Light at
Spokane Falls.


SPOKANE FALLS, March 6th.--A strange 70
nance has been brought to light 10 this city,
On the 18th of February last man named
Northcott brought handsome young girl, IA
years of age to All Saints School for Girls in
this city, and left her, saying she was ward OF
Mr.. Davis, of Wallace, l. t. The girl said her
name was Cora Davis
To-day a gentleman named Grifien arrived
here from North Yakima. this State, and pro-
ceeded to All-Saints School and demanded the
girl, saying she was the daughter of his wife by
q former husband. and had been kidnapped
ei2ht years ago since which no otrace of her had
ever been found until a few days ago, when the
mother received letter from her long. lost
daughter
1t appears that the child knew all the time
that she had a mother living, but did not know
where. and for several years past has been doing
all In her power TO find some trace of her. Since
coming here she in some manner learned that a
Mrs. CIR fen. residing at North Yakima, had lost
a daughter years ago, and she wrote to her with
the result of the relationship being established.
Mr.. Griffen had never seen the child, but recog-
nized her among a dozen other girls the no
ment he saw her, on account of her great like
ness to her mother.
The girl was overioyed at the prospect of be.
ing restored to her mother. whom Davis has al
ways refused to tell her anything about Griffen
secured her release on the writ of habeas cor
pus. and will leave with her on the morning
train for his home,

Little Change in the Situation of Affairs
at the BaY.

at the Bay.
SAN FRANCISCO March 6th.-This is the fourth
day OF the strike, but to say that either side is
weakening would not be correct. The Associa-
ton is confident of compelling the Union to do
away with the rules to which obectionis made,
and the Union says II can hold out as long as
the Association. Much diSpleasure is felt at the
action of the Vulcan Iron Works people, and it
is asserted that this institution hopes TO profit
by the trouble. One of The members of the As
sOciatiOn said that the Vulcan Iron Works had
never belonged to the Association and were not
asked to. and that action will be taken as soon
as the fight is over
At the headquarters of the Executive Com
mittee the information was gwen out that there
was nothing new and affairs remain in the
same condition as on the first day.
No information could be gained at the rooms
concerning the ill-treatment of a nOn-Union
man at the Union Iron Work this morning.
Henry T. Scott, however when asked about The
matter, stated that such was fact, but he did
not know many of the particulars.
In answer to the letter published by the Union
yesterday concerning the limitation of work,
the members of the Association are preparing
statement signed by all the toundrymen belong
ing to the association, in which strong denial
is made of the statements of the Union.
At the Fulton Iron Works Mr.. Hinckley was
seen, and remarked that as yet no molders had
been secured and, in fact, no effort has been
made to get any. ''No one is to blame for this
strike but the molders themselves" said he
There is plenty of work TO be done If the
molders would only come back to do it. They
many others to suffer who are not responsible
for their actions. In consequence of their way
of doing things they have forced us to discharge
many laborefs having families TO support, and
are without means ito carry them along. The
machinistS in this shop will soon have 10 go, If
the strike does not end soon. The proprietors
of this shop do not propose to submit to dicta.
ton and we viii hold out on that proposition
as long as the shop,stands. AS far as l am con-
cerned feel sure i can stand as long as the
Union"
Ira p Rankin, President of the Association,
knew of no change. He stated that the prin-
cipal end for which the Association was fighting
was to compel the adjustment OF The clause
limiting work, a revisal of the apprentice ques-
ton and TO have something to say about the
running CT the works of which they were pro-
prietors Mr. Rankin also said that member
of the Union, when called out of one of the
shops. sought.Out his employer, and remarked
that he did not desire to leave his work, but
was forced to by the demand of the Union. He
desired to say that according to the rule laid
down bv the Union he had not done more than
half of days work in the time for which he
received full days pay, and was satisfied that
the Association had good cause for grievance.
No effort is made by either side to adjust the

ton District.

FRESNO, March 6th.-Last night fire broke
out in a small dwelling occupied by two col

cussed in the hotels and on the streets tonight.

Mr.. Haysced in Town.

The other afternoon we met n
man out in the eastern suburbs of
the town near the cemetery who
plainly indicated that he was from
the rural districts. In fact he was
from way back and had hay seed in
his hair. He wore a jeans suit and
heavy programs and d SLOUGH hat
that had gone to seed in the years
gone by. He had mistaken the
academy for the court house and
had been trying to get in there. He
inquired of us to know where the
bank was, and said he hadn't been
to town for ten years and things had
changed so he had lost his bearings.
We righted him about and directed
him back up street, telling him that
the bank was in the next building
to the court house. We saw that
he was liable to get lost again and
intended to keep an eye on him,
but man stopped us on some bust
ness and Mr.. Hayseed kept on. We
came on up street in time to see
him cross over to the NJ. Il. Church
and thinking sure that he was right
this time, went into the parsonage.
The home of Methodist preacher
would of course be about the last
place to look for bank, so Mr..
Hayseed got turned ont of there and
then started for the'depot, the next
furthest part of town from the
bank. BY this time we had over
taken him in his mad career of the
town, and led him around to the
bank. We there left him and DON t
know how he got out of town, but
suppose that some one took him IN
charge till he rcgained his natural
element, the country. Who says
that Kingwood is not growing when
a country man can come in here
after ten years absence and get lost
this way.

BROTHER BRowN's attack on the
Dutch" in last weeks issue of the
ARGUS, is, no doubt, extremely rel
ished by the large Democratic Ger
man element in this county. Mr..
Holy is not the only imported
Dutchman in Preston county, and
they are not all Republicans, either.
The above squib from the Era of
last week is little sample of tie
Decent politics" of that sanctified
sheet. 1t would have the German
element of this county to believe
that the ARGUS made ferocieus
attack on them, whereas it did moth
ing of the kind and only used one
word that could have any reference
to them even. 1--WE spoke of Mr..
Holy as being big dutch imported
politician" and so he is. We said
nothing whatever derogatory to his
German extraction and have no OBJ
jections to that but we do object to
imported politicians. 1t is true
that we have large German popu-
iation and it is further true that
they are among the best citizens Of
our country, and we welcome all
such, for as the Era remarks they
''are not all republicans" neither
do they ask for the best paying of
flee IN the county before they have
been here long enough to vote, but
modesty is not an ingredient of re-
pnblicanism and we are surprised at
nothing from so voracious a source.
To the large German element who
read the ARGUS it is not necessary
for us to make any explanation or
offer any apology for the foolish
attack on rs by the Era, for out of
the mouth Of fool proceedeth fool
ishness, and we expect nothing else
from such source, and ask our
readers and the readers Of the Era
to take the same view Of it that the
man did who was kicked by jack
ass, simply consider the source.

The above apportionment as made
does not entirely exhaust the means
allowed the district. I thought best
to hold small sum in reserve for
emergencies. Our allowances for
this year are better than they were
for 1889, but owing to the numer-
Gus saw mills located at this time in
the district, the means at hand will
be insufficient to repair our roads
unless it is expended with judgment.
1 trust that the surveyors will see
that we receive dollar for dollar in
way of better roads. All cxpendi-
lures made by surveyors since last
July to be accounted for out of al
lowance.
l take this opportunity of return
ing thanks to the surveyors and
citizens of the district in general for
the courtesy and assistance confer
red, which has SO materially aided
me in the duties incumbent upon
me. Very Respectfully,
