wnhington FdrmeY: That there II wide
spread discomfort throughout the country
among the great body of the people cannot b
denied, and that there Is Just cause for disccn-
tent We must admit Froude says: When the
people complain, the people are always right
Abraham Lincoln, the man whom the impair
tial historian viii hand down 70 future genera
tons IS one Of the most remarkable men Of his
age, once said TO friend: Dick, put your ear
to the ground and - which way the people are
going; the people ere always right Not only
do the people not complain without cause,

Garfield EMepsjss: 'In no way can you add
30 much 10 the appearance and comfort OF your

walla walla Journal: 1--WE don't believe IN IN
extra session. It's risky business, with the ma
tcrial ON hand. It's too much like doubling the
stakes and running . lost race over with the
same old horse. Extra sessions cost money,
and who has 70 pay the dddleYf Not those who
dance at the great state ball amid the pullets
and fair daughters Of Olympia, with that old
rooster LAughton leading the grand march-but
the people. No, sir, we want no extra session.
lt's too much American pork for shilling. Let
Us leave It Is 1t is, and thank God its no worse.
Toledo Tidings: sit IL safe to say that the CEN
sus Of 1900 win show 100000 population in
Washington. The state has passed through its
slow, painful first stages of development and
her future progress will be rapid and easy A
period Of speculation in real estate, which
seems to be q necessary incident Of rapid
growth In all new communities, 10 drawing
somewhat to close, and one Of large develop
ment Of our great. important and almost In
exhaustible resources II just beginning"
Olympia Tribune: albany, Or, has IN open
river to the sea Wheat there is worth Y cents.
At The Dalles, where there IL not an open river
to the sea, wheat IL only worth 81 cents. In
Eastern Washington, where there are railroads
from that section east and west, wheat 10 worth
more than 1t II at Albany. The Columbia river
will be opened to the sea when the general gov
eminent spends several million dollars in open
ing It, hardly before"
Here il the pleasant way the Goidendals
Courier refers to the editor of the opposition
paper: "The beef-faced, bull-necked, big
shanked town bull who edits the Sentinel
must have been hit in soft spot last week, re-
garding the little tailor and boss rule The
shoe must have ft very snugly or he wouldn't
have been so anxious to put it on"
Island County Times: ''Sherif woolery, OF
King county, and Police Commissioner Ledger
wood had personal encounter on the streets OF
Seattle last Tuesday, and were separated by the
crowd. A fine example for peace officers to set
the public"
Walla Walla Onion: IA noticeable feature OF
newspaper sentiment Of late IL the fact that
Sunday indulgence in many forms of amuse-
ment, such as baseball and the Ike are viewed
with more charity than used to be shown"
Olympia CAPITAL: s'While mob violence II to Be
deplored, It 10 vastly more healthy to . COM
munity to suffer contempt OF courts than to
have murderers and assassins set free In its
midst"
Lincoln County Times: "should italy make
any attempt to drive American citizens from her
territory, Jim Blaine's reciprocity scheme would
be brought into immediate requisition."
