advertising, he naturally looks to the
papers with whom he is spending MS
money for protection against the fraud.
1t is duty which the paper owes to
its readers as we'll as to its advertisers.
To Mr.. A. Frank Richardson is due
the credit of having first agitated the
matter, and The Journalist, realizing
its importance to the publishing bust
ness, Immediately took it up. We
propose to fight it out on this line
until some effect is produced. Many
of the most progressive and influential
newspapers have already extended their
aid in the fight, and more will come
in. The movemet will have, at all
events, one immediate result. 1t will
enable the large advertisers to see who,
among the newspaper press, are their
friends and who are Indifferent to their
interests, and it will enable them to
distribute their patronage accordingly.
The Journalist will, from week to
week, record the progress of the move
ment, and will print articles from men
who are in position to write know
ingly. l shall shortly give a list of
the papers which have arrayed them
selves on the side of honest dealing
and against fraudulent substitution, and
that list, when completed, will form
a most valuable aid to large advertisers
in placing future patronage. 1t is fair
to infer that paper which refuses to
work in the interests of its readers and
advertisers is not of much value as an
advertising medium. 1t must look
for its patronage to the substituting
fakir, who, as yet, has not begun to
advertise.

QUIET WAYS ARE BEST.
What's the use of worrying,
Of hurrying

What's the use of worrying,
Of hurrying
And scurrying.
Everybody flurrying,
And breaking up their rest?
When every one is teaching us,
Preaching and beseeching us,
TO settle down and end the fuss,
For quiet ways are best.
The rain that trickles down in showers
A blessing brings to thirsty flowers;
Sweet fragrance from each trimming
cup
The gentle zephyrs gather up.
There's ruin in the tempest's path;
There's ruin in a voice of wrath;
And they alone are blest
Who early learn to dominate
Themselves, their violence abate,
And prove. by their serene estate,
That quiet ways are best.
Nothing gained by worrying,
By hurrying
And scurrying,
With fretting and with burying
The temper'S often lost,
And in pursuit OF some small prize
We rush ahead and are not wise,
And find the unwonted exercise
A fearful price has cost.
IT'S better far to Join the thrOng
That do their duty right along:
Reluctant they to raise a fuss,
Or make themselves ridiculous.
Calm and serene in heart and nerve,
Their strength is always IN reserve,
And nobly stands each test;
And every day and all about,
BY scenes within and scenes without,
We can discern, with ne'er doubt.
That quiet ways are the best.

THE COUNTY ROADS.
How Their improvement Would
Strengthen This City.

"The subject OF county roads is one which
hope the new board OF trustees of the Chamber
OF Commerce will earnestly consider" said Mr..
Percy w. Rochester, yesterday. "Indeed, one of
my objects in running for trustee again this
year was to get into q position to work more
effectively for opening the county roads. / have
given the subject some study, and do not think
/ speak amiss when say that, with the excep-
ton, perhaps, of the building Of the ship canal
from Lake Washington to the Sound, there 10 no
way In which 81 900 could be spent for Seattle
more effectively than on county roads. There
is no way OF laying out the money 90 as to
strengthen more certainly our commercial posi-
ton. You see how the building OF cable and
electric lines has developed the suburbs of this
city. Well, county roads would do much the
same thing. They would make accessible thou
sands and thousands OF acres OF good farming,
fruitgrowIng, timber and mineral lands.
"These lands would supply the city with much
needed farm products, and at the same time we
could spend the money for such things in our
own country instead of sending IT TO Oregon or
California.
Seattle, on the other hand. would be the
point from which the farmers and Others would
get their supplies of manufactured products, in
short, roads would soon increase ;kas country
population enormously. and give Ss4s;ic the
strength that belongs 10 city IN the midst OF
thickiy settled country.
"These are some OF the reasons whE want To
see the Chamber Of Commerce bend is energies
toward having the county Issue bonds for road
improvement The county commissioners are,
believe. inclined TO look on the matter with a
fayoring eye. and know that all the uewspa.
pers are with Us

ASSESSING THE CITY.
The Work Will Be Finished

NEW PLAN OF ENROLMENT.
Simpler for Assessors But Not for

Ready in August.

Eve are getting very well along with the as
sessmelt," said Assessor Frank Paul yesterday.
"The outside work is pretty well done and three
out OF the five men doing the city viii be
through tomorrow night, and the other two win
be through In a week. Today we commenced
writing up the real estate rolls for city prop
erty. We do not expect to have the rolls CON-
pletely written UP until the first Monday in
August"
'.How do you take to the new assessment rolls
recently adopted by the legIslature?"
al like them very well. / think 1t will take
the people some little time to become accus-
toned 10 them. but / believe that they are much
superior to the old rolls You see we now assess
all real estate IN numerical order. Last
year We assessed the people in alphabetical
order. For instance: Last year John Smith
would have all his property placed opposite his
name, no matter where it was situated, as long
as 1t was in the county. Now it is far different.
One may have his several pieces OF property
entered upon several books. The different prop
erty is Kept together. When man wants 20 pay
his assessment now he must bring along a slip
OF paper, with the list of his property and where
located. upon 1t. By this method the treasurer
knows Just where TO look for the record OF the
doubling assessments. and also no chance to
miss il. The new method is simply explained
by saying that we now assess the property in
stead Of the owner.
s'Yes, like the new way very much, and the
people will like it much better when they be-
come accustomed TO it.
