SPOKANE FALLS, Sept. 6.
To THE EDITOR or THE REVIEW:
Now that the smoke of tho polit-
ical battle has lifted little, I have
word for Mr.. j. n. Glover. On
the morning of the Sd inst. / ad-
dressed the following note to Mr..
Glover:
SPOKANE FALLS, Sept. 8, 1890.
J. N. Glover, Esq, City-Dear Sir:
rilous com munica;ion In the REVIEW
this morning, signed "Shantytown," In
which the statement is made that
went to you at the time yourself and
others went to Washington, and asked
to be sent there In place OF the commit
tee, stating that j could do more for
your side than the comnitte could.
This story is wholly without foundation,
as you know, and 1 would be glad to
have n declaration from you to that
WY GEoRGE TURNER.
Mr.. Glover evaded answering this
note and was not heard from on the
subject until the publication of his
communication In your issue of yes
terday morning. In that communi-
cation he raises n direct issue of
veracity between himself and me. l
accept the issue. One or the other
of us has lied. Some people may be-
lieve with the REVIEW that | am
the man, but am quite certain that
a large m mUority of the people of
Spokane do not believe that the
sudden acquisition of wealth by for
tuitous circumstances adds any
thing to ones veracity, any more
than 1t can implant the instincts Of
gentleman in the mind of an
ignorant, illiterate, vulgar fellow. /
do not fancy that 1 shall be seriously
injured in the estimation of the
majority to which have alluded
by the issue which Mr.. Glover has
forced. l care SO little for the other
class that l am quito indifferent to
their verdict. Very respectfully,
GEORGE TURNER.

Diamond Production and Prices.

Diamond Production and Prices.
1.-THE worlds stock of diamonds has
increased enormously in the last
fifteen years." says London Iron. SIN
1876 the output of the African mines
was about ], 500, 900 carats; last year it
was aver 1000, 600 carats, and the
great trust which controls all the
principal mines, assert that 1t has 49,
600, 900 carats in sight at the present
time. Meantime the demand for dia-
monds has greatly increased and they
are higher today-partly because of
the trust, but also because of the in
creased demand-than they were a
year or two ago. In one respect the
diamond industry is different from al
most all others. Its product-that is
of gems-is never consumed. Of gold
and silver q much larger amount than
most people would believe is literally
consumed in the arts past recovery,
but diamond once cut goes into the
worlds great stock, and is liable to
come upon the market at any time.
Hence the worlds annual taking of
diamonds, which appears to be stead
lily increasing, even at advancin.
prices, is an index of how much of
its surplus earnings it can afford to
expend yearly in this particular form
of luxury. The romance of diamond
mining is all gone. 1t is now a mat
ter of excavating vast beds of blue
clay by machinery, washing it and
sitting out the diamonds, which, after
being roughly sorted for size, are
sold in bulk by weight. The men
who do the actual work are mere
laborers, and their pay is proper
tionately small"

A Raining Tree.

Augusta Ga.) Chronicle.
There is tree at the corner of Wat
kins add Lincoln streets, in front of
the residence of Mr.. E. 8, Chandler,
which invites the interest of the sci
entific curiously inclined.
This tree at first glance appears to
be O well-behaved member of the oak
family. Close investigation reveals a
startling situation of affairs, and
neigh bors from squares around come
and view 1t with awe.
It is a rain tree.
In the folk lore Of the dusky nurse
ry rhymes frequently occur stories OF
trees shedding tears. Here in the
city with electric cars fitting back
ward and forward every few minutes
almost under its shadow, is q verit-
able rain.tree, which, for the past ten
days, has been throwing off q slight
shower, and the ground beneath is
kept in q state of moisture equal to
that after a steady shower of consid-
cradle duration.
Citizens eye it curiously, and many
of the more ignorant, especially dar-
kies in that neighborhood, affirm,
with all the strength of firm faith,
that the tree is visited with some I'M
canny potency.
An old woman attested that some
tragedy had been enacted under its
cover, and the tree would cry and
weep until the guilty party was found
out.
AS the police have had nothing
booked from that locality, the old
woman's story loses Its force, but not
its interest.

ID. TaImase on Thanksgiving.

table of the Nation. They come from

will be smoking the products of all
lands-birds of every aviary, cattle
from every pasture, fish from
every lake, feathered spoils
from every farm. The fruit baskets
will bend down under the products
plucked from the peach fields of New
Jersey, the apple orchards of Western
New York, the orange groves of Flor
ida, the vineyards of Ohio and the
nuts threshed from New England
woods. The bread will be white from
the wheat fields of Illinois and Mich
igan, the banqueters will be adorned
with California gold, and the table
will be a-gleam with Nevada silver,
and the feast will be warmed with
the fire CRATES heaped up with Penn
sylvania coal. The halls will be
spread with carpets from the Lowell
mills, and when darkness comes with
its heavy draperies, the lights will
flash from bronZed brackets of Phila-
delphia manufacture. The fingers'of
Massachusetts girls will have hung
the embroidery; the music will be
the drumming of ten thousand mills
accompanied by the shouts of children
let loose for play, and the gladness
of harvesters driving BARNARD the
loads of sheaves, aud the thanksgiv-
ings of the nation which crowd the

Foolish Vanity.

From the Youths Companion.
In girls school in one of the West
ern States there was lately an out
break of peculiar illness, the symp-
toms of which at first baffied the
physicians. One of the pupils died,
the others recovered slowly, but in
nent,y injured. 1t was discovered
that they had been taking arsenic
for several weeks in order to improve
their complexion.
Foolish attempts to gain beauty
by ignorant interference with nature
are not confined to young women.
Stout matrons and middle-aged fat
men, whose vanity is wounded by
jokes at their size, frequently under
take tn set the matter right by a
sudden extreme change in their diet.
Four women between the ages of so
and go, who considered their figures
too stout for beauty, resolved two
years ago to try one of the Systems
for reducing lat" given in newspa-
per. They were in perfect health at
the time. They gave up at once and
wholly the use of certain kinds of
food to which they had been accus-
toned since childhood. They took
ee ch day excessive and unaocustomed
exercises and oyerstrained their mus
cles by lifting heavy weights. All
this was done without the knowledge
OF physician.
The result was Unexpectedly sue
cessful. During the first fortnight
they lost flesh rapidly. The decrease
in weight was accompanied by a
sense of prostration and pains in the
limbs, but these things mattered
little to them compared with their
joy in the more narrow waists and
end delicacy of feature. They per-
severed with the experiment.
One is now victim of nervous pros
tration; a second contracted typhoid
fever, and after a struggle of weeks
for life died; the two others have
suffered with rheumatic govt. In
each case the physician stated that
the weakening of the tissues by the
sudden and complete change of diet
had rendered the patient unable to
resist disease.
Do not temper with that most won
derful complex of all machines, your
body. When you attempt to change
its workings, unless under the d.
rection of a skillful physician, you
lay your ignorant hand upon the
handspring of life.

Fifteenth Century Head-Gear.

rIteentn century Heau-GeaF.
1t is not easy, even for extremists
in STYLE" to comprehend the facina-
ton of "veils," as worn four and five
centuries ago. At one period the
wives and daughters of well-to-do
citizens were satisfied with nothing
less than a framework of brass or
wire rods upon which to rest the
fashionable structure OF such gauzy
fabric as their purses could command;
never less than two feet, often three
feet or more, the precious yelling was
upreared, floating over the shoulders
like gossamer sGreamers. A season
later additional breadths were in re-
quest as face protector, and swiftly
following came Dame Fashions order

pERMaRENCE IN OFFICE.


The real, practical work of gov
eminent being done by officials OF
lower grade than Cabinet Ministers,
it is of the greatest consequence to
the country that the former especi-
ally should be capable and practical
men. Where there is frequent
change in ofilcc-dismissals and new
appointments-this object can never
be attained. To displace a man
when he has acquired proficiency in
the work of his position, by another
who has to learn by practice before
he becomes proficient, ana keep on
repeating the process every two
years, cannot possibly ccnduce to
the production of capable, practical
men. Permanence in Office is essen
tial to efficiency, and efficiency is
what the people in general want and
wish.
A new party has come into power,
and new Ministry representing
that party is at the head of the En-
ecutive. Some few blatant electors
whose first, last, and intermediate
principles and sole policy are 'self,
personal gain, and to Jericho with
the public good" want the Cabinet
to discharge every employee who
served under the previous Admins
tration, and to appoint instead the
"blatants' and their nominees.
With them it is not question of
what is for the general good of the
country, but what is for their own
personal advantage and for the gra-
LITIGATION of their prejudice. Let it
he understood, these men do not re-
present the party; they represent
themselves and the pernicious
"spoils" system, and are the very
best of men to be "sat upon" This
is about the only useful purpose in
life they are capable of fulfilling.
In retaining in office men who are
in every way qualified for the places
they hold, the Ministers not only
have the approval of the sensible of
the party they represent, but also OF
all sensible men, whether allied with
that party or not. To be sure, it is
expected that any and every incom
petent or otherwise unfit servant o.
the people will be displaced by {
better man, but not until the res
ponsible heads are assured, by suf
iicent evidence, of the incompe
tence or otherwise unlitness-neve
on the Jacksonian principle advocat
ed by the Reform party, or by som
of its prominent members, on &C
curing power, that ''to the victor
belong the spoils," because TIL
would be detrimental to good gov
eminent.
