PAY THE NATIONAL GUARD

The First Regiment has served Ia
the field, and was there according u
law, and for the Encouragement to
say that King county should pay the
bill, is nonsense.
The legislature has made ample pro-
vision for the National Guard, and
those at its head should now help it
all they can. 1t seems strange that
there is fund on hand to pay parades,
but nothing with which to pay for
actual service-the thing is absurd.
There is said to be vast quantities
Of munitions of war piled up at Olym-
pia, and yet the men in the field were
In want, and were destitute of the
things they needed. The National
Guard should be in the best possible
condition at all times, and ready for
any emergency.
To half equip, or supply the militia,
is suicidal, and 1t discOurages and
weakcns the citizen soldier. Some OF
the best young men Of the state are
found in the ranks OF the National
Guard, who are in the habit of doing
business as business men, and they are
disguised at the way they are being
treated by its head officers.
There is one thing quite certain,
the bills have been made, and the
State will have them to pay, and the
sooner it gets about it the better for
all concerned. Business is business,
and now let the boys who served in the
field have what the state honestly and
lawfully owes them.

LISTEN TO THIS

The following from wcll-knowr
poetaster, was received yesterday at
the HERALD Office and it is published
without comment:
Hope deferred is often quoted,
How it makes the weary sick,
Yet, there's some who all unnoted,
Stand it like the bakers brick;
Gold is tried most In the furnace,
Where The dross will burn away,
Such a lesson 1t should learn us,
How they profit all who stay.

A remarkable record in favor OF the
work of the Michigan Board Of Health,
under direction Of the secretary, DR..
Baker, Is given In the American Meteor
illogical journal for February. IL Ia
there stated that DIR. Baker gives from
official statistics and undisputed evil
denee record Of the saving of over one
hundred lives per year from small pox,
four hundred from scarlet fever and
nearly six hundred from diphtheria-
an aggregate OF eleven hundred lives per
year, or three lives per day saved from
these three diseases. This is owing to
better understanding of the nature Of
these diseases on the part Of the people
through facts disseminated by the state
Board of Health. through the force of
laws which 1t has suggested, by
the adoption OF better sanitary rules,
and the quarantine and control OF in-
fectious diseases by the authority of the
