Against BeiIinger.
this time

The latter part Of last week a petition
generally circulated and signed in Pull
man asking Governor Ferry to remove
j. II. BeiIinger from his Office as regent
OF the agricultural college and school OF
science The following is copy Of
THE PETITION:
70 His ExceIlency, Governor Ferry. Olympic
Wash: We the undersigned, citizens Of the
state Of Washington, do respectfully petition GU,
and show.
FIRsr-That as citizens OF this state we are
proud Of her resources and her institutions, and
are ever willing to develop, maintain and defend
the same,
S4CoND--We consider the agricultural college
and school OF scierce the most necessary and
important institution that Will ever be in the
state. rs its aim and SUPPOSE is to benefit the
farmer, miner and mechanic, on whom the state
must ever rely for wealth and progress, and
hence it should be as jealousy protected by the
individual citizens the national and state gov
eminent intends It should be.
in making this institution an honor to the state
and 10 have it accomplish the ends for which it
was designed by the national and state govern
ments, and to defend and protect it against the
attacks of those who actuated by political,
selfish or local motives, and who aim to destroy
its effectiveness.
We, therefore, ask you to exercise your pre-
rosative to protect this institution from injury.
by One who should be its friend, viz: J. II. Bell
niger of Colfax We ask for his removal as re-
gent for the following reasons:
FIRsT-Because he, the said J. H. Bellinger
has practically declared that he would use every
effort, politically and otherwise, to have the ag-
ricultural college add school Of science removed
from its present location, thereby depriving the
state of the benefits of the same for an indefinite
period, if he had the power to carry his wish into
effect, said declaration having been made after
demand OF the enemies Of this institution to de
clare its present location illegal.
SECoND-Because he, the said j. H. Bcllinger,
is so deeply jealous and envious of Pullman that
he viii sacrifice the interests of the state and Of
this institution to crafty his spite and to aveng
an imaginary wrong.
THIRD-Because the attitude of said J. II
Beil-nger is sCch that the interests of the stat,
and OF the agricultural college and school OF
science are endangered by allowing him to r..
main member of the board of regents and t.
ALLOW him to exercise the functions of this i'm
portant Office with his own antipathies will be
disgrace to the state.
Praying that You viii heed orr warning and
that you viii grant our request as citizens of thi.
great state, we respectfully remain. etc.

CITY ELECTION.
Mayor, Two Councilmen and a Treasur-
er to Be Elected next Tuesday.
One Ticket was Nominated last Wed
nesday Evening.

Next Tuesday occurs the regular
annual election Of city officers, and
mayor, two councilmen and the
town treasurer will be elected at
that time. In accordance with the
order given by the city council, pro-
ceedings of which were published
in the HERALD, primary was held
last Wednesday evening and can
didates fer the various offices were
placed in nomination. AT this
primary the present incambents OF
the different offices were ro-nomin-
ated A large number Of the citi-
zens being present.
The parties re-nominated were,
w. Y. Windus, for mayor; J. A.
Wilkinson and E. E. Letterman for
councilmen, and Archie White for
/ treasurer.
| Another primary has been called
for this evening, when a new ticket
will be put in the field.
The improvement of the city un-
der the old council has beeh a won
der 70 everyone, and while there are
doubtless many in the town who
would do equally well, still the
. HERALD sees no good reason for
changing. The old members Of the
board need no breaking in; they
are well acquainted with the needs
and demands Of the town, and are
better able to handle the duties OF
the Office than would be new men
W. Y. Windus has made a very
bcapale mayor, and his every act
calls for reelection. Re-elect him
CounciImen Wilkinson and Let
terman have done their duty faith

Just as the HERALD is about to close
its forms for press, the primary
held in the City hall, has placed Hon. J
NJ, Hill in nomination for mayor, and
VIM. Vodder and ]. G. Farr for council
men. Mr. Hill is man of more than
ordinary executive ability. and Massrs
Vedder and Farr would, without doubt,
make most excellent councilmen if elect
ed. The trial of strength between the
two tickets promises to be very close and
i exciting, and whichever Of the nominees
win the town is assured Of good govern

HELD HIS JOB.
The Western Union Messenger Boy
ProcIaims a blockade.


One of the characters Of the city is
Tommy Hodgkiuson the Western Union
messenger boy. Last week he stayed
away from the Office so long that Manager
Nichols decided TO discharge him and
hung a card in the window announcing
that he wanted a messenger boy. When
Tommy finally got back to the Office he
read his fate in the placard which stared
him in the face from the front window.
He said nothing and went about his work
OF copying messages as if nothing had
happened. He kept, however, a sharp
lookout for applicants for his position.
Presently a timid looking boy read the
sign and started in. He was met at the
door BY Tommy who hauled him away
from the front of the Office and gave him
a swift and effective thrashing. Another
boy essayed to apply for the job but was
treated in the same way. After keeping
up the blockade for several hours, Tom
my's calculations proved correct, Not an
applicant reached the manager and ne
took down the sign and re eugaged
Tommy.
