Every body is making preparation TO 60
fishing, so we have little to report this week.
Mrs. J. J. Bridges, nee Cora Hogue, is
here on visit.
Sell and George Tual spent Sunday at
home with their parents.
Thos. GuIck, merchant of Stoddard
county, spent last week here visiting his fam
| lily.
Miss Ella Simpson came down from St.
Louis last week to iell Us all good bye, be-
fore starting on her trip to Europe.
Gen. Turner is having new plank fence
built around his farm.
Supt. L. VI. Smith. Of GraniteyiIle, assist
ed by \. W. and Joel Hollomau, is survey
longs 10 the Allen heirs.
Messrs. Hawkins and Penny of Dunklin
county have brought their families to Ar
cadia to spend the simmer.
Mr.. L. Quinn's family has returned from
Poplar Bluff to spend the summer.
Tax Collector Turner of Butler county has
rented the Reynolds property and will bring
his family here to spend the summer.
Mrs. l.. F. Medley and family are visiting
relatives in Mississippi county.
Quite number of our young people went
on an excursion to the silver mines last
Wednesday.
Rev. Thos. HollOman, of Mississippi, Il
nephew of Judge Holloman, preached two
able and Interesting sermons at Fort Hill
last Sunday, that Is, sunday of last week.
This Sunday was children's day and was
observed as such on the Hill.
Mrs. Harriet Thomas, a resident of Area
dia for the past quarter of a century, died
last Thursday night. Her funeral was
preached at Fort Hill church Saturday at
ternoon by Rev. Tidwell.
We notice that The lessee of the hotel
property is having the grounds plowed up,
preparatory, we hope, to putting them down
in meadow grass. If it be that he is prepar-
ing to put in another corn crop on those
beautiful lots, we desire, right here, to enter
our solemn protest, and appeal to him to be
more merciful and have more regard for our
people and our town.
We are told that there Is to be an eAGurr
sion from st. Louis to this place on next
Sunday. Everytime one OF those eXcur
sons comes into our Valley, there is COM
plant of gambling and selling liquor in open
violation of the law; but these complaints
always come after the guilty parties have
made good their escape. Now # these peo-
pie come here as upright and law abiding
people. we extend to them most hearty
welcome. On the other hand, if liquor is
sold, or, if gambling devices are set up,
we want the guilty parties arrested and pros
ecuted to the full extent of the law. Our
laws are too sacred to be trampled upon in
any such way. We have as good officers as
has any county in Missouri, and we pray
that they be on hand next Sunday, and put
under arrest every person who violates the
law. We hope there will be nothing of the
kind, but in order to be on the safe side, we
appeal to our officers to "Come over into
Macedonia and help u.s." | am

proposition would not be
entertained for q moment The
lands would not be placed on sale
until they become valuable and then
the highest market price would be
cxactcd. But the legislature pro-
poses to put price on these lands
and sell them to the shore owners at
once, ut q nominal figure, when
time and n public sale to the highest
bidder would bring millions Of dol
lars to the treasury Of the state,
whereas hundreds would be re-
ceived under the proposed bill.
Every member Of the legislature
who has read the constitution
OF this state knows full well
that the tide lands belong
to tho people, and that
when they give one class Of citizens
q greater right than the others then
they are dealing unJustly with the
people thoy represent,
Tho members Of the legislature
may pass this bill, and vote millions
Of dollars OF the peoples property
into the pockets Of a few shore
owners, but by so doing they will
vote themselves into obscurity. A
politlca. tidal wave will sweep them
Into an ocean Of oblivion, where the
resurrection morn willbe indefinitely
postponed.
, 1890-02-20
RESIST THE DEsPoiLERs.

1f the tide lands arc worth $780,
900, 600, and many familiar with the
subject have placed that estimate
upon their value, every man, woman
and child In the state of Washing
ton has an ownership In them to
the extent Of S4OO. If they can de-
feat the vicious measure that Is now
before the legislature, they will pre-
serve this magnificent heritage, and
from II receive as much benefit us II
that amount OF gold coin should he
deposited in bank to their credit.
Briefly stated, these benefits would
be derived i'm the way of decreased
taxation, the education Of the chill
dren OF the state, the advance in the
market price Of all tho people pro-
duce, and u corresponding decrease
In the cost of imported products.
Ia not this worth u struggle ?
Aside from all motives of patriotism
and honor, should not the people
arouse themselves and cross swords
with the audacious clique who are
now conducting a cunning campaign
for the most stupendous prize that
ever excited the cupidlty OF man?
This individual interest In these
tide lands, provided the people as
sert their just claims, can never de-
crease, because with the growth of
population the lands will increase in
value.
The people Of Spokane Falls can
defeat this greedy combination. II
they will assemble in mass meeting,
denounce the measure in emphatic
terms, adopt denunclatory resolu-
tions, and call upon their representa-
tives to oppose the proposition of the
joint tide lands committee, they will
find that other cities and towns will
follow suit, and that such IA storm of
indignation will gather over the
heads of the legislators that none
but the most corrupt will care to fly
in the face oft.
Men of Washington, the prize Is
too tempting, the call of duty too
loud, to he ignored. The republican
party can not carry this odlous
measure. 1t would damn the de-
mocracy, because the REVIEW is in
formed, upon the authority Of one
of the leaders Of that party, that
every democrat in the legislature
proposes to vote for the bill. II is
not a party question. 1t is matter
of the loftiest duty to your families,
your children and your magnificent
young commonwealth. The de-
spoilers of Washington are ut the
doors OF the capitol. Already their
greedy clutch Is upon her fair form.
They are struggling to rob her of her
richest raiuent, aud they will sue
ceed unless the people throw off this
dangerous lethargy ard rally to the
rescue.

The REVIEW understands that one
or two gentlemen have pronounced
~ visionary and overdrawn the
speech now being delivered In the
East by Henry b. Clifford on the re-
sources and future of the state Of
Washington. We have read that

statement we shall be greatly Obliged
70 any one who will have the kind
ness to point II out, la order that
the same may corrected.
The REVIEW printed Mr.. Cilfiord's
speech for two good and sufficient
rcasons: First, II Is the most com
prehensive article on Washington
that has ever been laid before the
people OF tho East; second, rs o
matter Of news to our readers,
who naturally take IN Interest
IN the advertisement Of their
state and Us resources. II,

advocacy, be ought TO lie discour-
