The Chehalis Nugget thinks
that if we are ever to have decent
roads throughout this state, the
earlier some definite mode of ac-
ton is taken the better. Legisla-
ton has given us the chance to
raise the necessary funds. But all
legislation in the world would be
lot no service unless we get in and
take Hold Of the means at our dis
posal, raise the money and then
apply it in the best way possible.
We would then suggest tina. con.
vention of. counties throughout
the state be held for the purpose
of taking organized action looking
to the improvement of our roads.
Some counties are far ahead OF
others in the condition of their
highways, and sue conference
would bring together the best ideas
by which snch ends are accom-.
plished. So muci attention lately
is being turned to the building of
railroads that this question has, to
large extent been over looked.
Gnod roads settle up the whole
state quicker even than railroads.
Let US have convention.

The newspapers generally, and

The newspapers generally, and
especially on the Sound, are de.
'elaring the census a bowling farce.
There is every reason to believe
that the census of 1890 will stand
gas the biggest blunder of the age.
: Many profess to believe that the
coast cities have exaggerated their
growth, hence the kick; but they
ARE not alone in the complaint, for
the greatest howl comes from Min
'neapolis and Saint Paul. The
completed census shows Seattle to
ehaVe 1915 and Tacoma 1864
persons. What the outcome will
be it is hard to determine. That
the census will have to stand is as
ssured, in that congress will appro-
pirate no funds to repeat the enum.

sons, who promise to amend their

If. as suggested in another ar
tlcle, a holly contested political
scrap in this state, next fall, would
attract attention from the cast.
then the real estate men, and all

the politicians Of both parties
plenty OF money and they will en-
thuse the voter and make plenty Of

While the JOURNAL is not political
paper, and is not published in the es

political as well as otherwise, and il
may be of news to the Republicans
and also to some Democrats of Mason
County to learn that grand rally oil
the Tariff-reform cohorts of Washing
ton is soon to take place at Tacoma.
1t seems that II lively movement is
being made to organize County Cen
trail Democratic Clubs in every county
in the State and, so far, it has met
with uniform success. Even in Ma
son County, the Democrats of which,
than whom more quiet and non-pro-
gressive set would be hard to find, are
showing signs OF life-even vigor and
enterprise, by joining in the forward
movement. Last week County Cen
trail Democratic club Was organized in
Shelton, and the organization of aux
Hilary, or precinct clubs is expected to
follow soon.
AS soon as the counties are organ
lzei, which will not be long if the
present pace is maintained, conven-
ton for the purpose of organizing a

not be later than September LIST and
