START IN TIME

The state Of Washington has apprO-
priated 100000 for the Worlds Fair
at Chicago, and now our representa-
tive from this state should see that
our resources and products are not
marked as coming from Oregon, as
they were at the Centennial.
For instance, canneries on the
Washington side Of the Columbia
river sent salmon all over the world
branded as Oregon Salmon" Lumber
cut from the forests of Washington
had the name, not only in the East,
but in European markets, of "Oregon
Pine spars that came from the shores
Of Puget sound having a worldwide
reputation, are known tOday,and 90 by
the name Of Oregon Spars.' Wheat
and other grain from WallaWalla coun-
ty were displayed and tagged at the
Centennial as" OregonProduCts." Deli
ciOus fruits from our inland empire,
that challenged the dmiration Of the
SIX Ut "7''NA y vi bhl iNAlAtfulIl ullllAN tI-
sary. were sampled as "Oregon
Fruits" And so with the hundred
and one Of our industries and with our
vast deposits Of iron, silver, copper,
gold, sandstone and building materials
and they were all taken from this state
and exhibited as Oregon products.
We should now take heed in time
and see that "State Of Washington"
is stamped, branded and burned into
every article, and they should be ex-
hibited as coming from this great
state, so that Washington's namesake
shall outlive even the Father of His
Country and the Union may say Gan
to Washington on the Pacific !! "

lars worth Of silver in it, and no
amount Of argument can prove the
contrary; and the only reason that 1t
now passe, for a dollar is, because there
is gold enough in the United States
treasury to back up this circulation,
and upon presentation Of this silver
money gold will be exchanged for it.
Or, to put it in another form, the
people have confidence in our treasury
and in our government.
This state Of affairs might be
greatly changed in case of war with
another nation or a general European
war.
Again, should all the banks in the
United States lock up in their vaults
and hold on to the gold coins, and
draw what the United States treasury
now has in its vaults and give out
silver in return, it would have ten
dency to lower the silver and gold
would be at a premium. 1t is fact

Of our banks is done today by checks,
aud only s per cent in cash.
This may give some light on why
more money is not in circulation and
why silver holds its place as well as il
does.
The silver mines of Mexico and
Peru far exceed in value the whole OF
the European and Asiatic mines, and
three of them in the space Of three
centuries produced 3l6,O23 1888 pound,
Of pure silver, while Mexico, Brazil
New Grenada, Chill, Peru, AsiatiC
Russia, the Indian Archipelago, and
Africa and Hungary produce about
one-third Of the amount Of gold as

THE UNIVERSITY

Rev. Al. Cannui. who has been
here the greater part Of the time for
more than a year working for the
establishment Of Presbyterian Uni
versity on BeIlingham bay, informs
the HERALD that prospects are very
bright now for the success OF the un-
dertaking. He says If S25O,OOO can be
raised in land by donations that there
will be an endowment Of $4,000 in
cash which will make the great insti-
ton an assured certainty, though it is
the intention Of the projectors to put
$4,000 into the university before it
is completed, thus to make IL the
grandest and most perfect institution
OF learning on the North Pacific coast.
Such an institution would be price
less blessing as well as splendid orna-
ment to Fairhavcn and her sister
cities, aud for these reasons, as well as
many others that are self-suggestiye,
the donations should be completed
very soon. There are hundreds Of
people in this vicinity who could give
some land toward this enterprise and
very much help themselves by so do
ing, in adding toward the general en-
hancement OF values that such a SPLEEN
did ediiice and noble institution would
certainly cause.
While the university is to
be conducted under the aus
pieces OF the PRESBYTERIAN church,
it will be conducted on an entirely
unsectarian plan, therefore even
cavilers at Presbyterian doctrines
will not be able to find any fault with
the institution itself. 1t is the his
tory Of great schools Of this character
that they are much more successful
under the protecting Hgis of some
special cl IS or religious sect They
are thereby given a strength that
never fails, and do not go down
or fall of, as do many such
enterprises when dependent upon the
general public. On the principle that
''what is everybody's business is no.
body's business, many good thing
has fallen into inocuous desuetude,
while matters that are made the spec
ial pride Of a class always flourish
grow in strength and go on to the con.
summation of desirable results.

THE JURY SYSTEM

The jury system Of this country is
largely a failure and has been the
cause Of much Of the mob law that
has been put in execution for years.
The law should be changed so that
nine out Of twelve could convict or
acquit.
There are always, hanging around
the county court house, tools Of Off
cials and persons given to litigation,
who make jury duty profession, and
it has come to pass that business
men. prominent citizens and tax pay
ers will too often refuse TO take the
time, and who are generally disinclined
to serve on juries, either grand or
petit This state Of affairs is increas-
ing and its tendency is to place jury
duty in the hands Of irresponsible
persons while as "A general rule the
man who will ask to 90 on a jury is
one that.can be bought; and too often
officials are accountable for encourage
ing this class Of people, freqently for
the furtherance Of little pet schemes
of their own.
Mobs are often the outgrowth Of
just this Kind Of business, the result
ing injustice having the effect on the
people Of causing them to rise in their
might and administer justice by their
strong united action.

KEEP THEM IN

Chief Parker is losing his patience
and he is an exceeding patient man
over the fact that children are allowed
by their parents, to run the streets It
all hours of the night. This thing
will go on until parents will be found
early some Of these fine mornings
down at the Jail hunting for their
stray youngsters, as if they were pick
ing out pets from a pound. Little
tads," not more than ten years old,
are numerous in the yilest purlieus Of
the city at all hours Of the uight,
where they are simply vegetating into
the worst kinds Of criminals. The
children are not to be blamed, but
their parents are and it is to be hoped
that steps will be taken to break up
this dangerous Kindergarten of vice.
The chief Of police, the police, justices
and city council will make it torrid
for some Of those parents yet.

WESTWARD THE STAR OF EN-
PRE- TAKES ITS WAY

There never was as much talk
throughout the United States about
the state Of Washington as there is
today, and no other state has been
better or more thoroughly advertised
than has our own.
We may surely look for a large inn
migration to the Pacific Northwest
this spring, as the transportation
companies and papers in the East indi-
cate large migration westward. In
the state Of New York alone we know
Of several hundred families who will
start in few weeks, and on their
arrival here will engage in manufac-
lures and other industries. This is
but one Of the many Illustrations
which might be cited. Our people
should wake up and give them a
hearty welcome on their arrival at
this, their destination.
Washington is richer i'm natural re-
sources than any other state on the
Pacific coast, and in ten years from
now will have the largest population
of any state on the slope.

SILVER AND GOLD

Probably no question Of the day
has had more written about IL than
this same silver issue. Some locali-
ties cry out, "Give us unlimited coin
ager' while others whisper, IRE
strain IL.
And thus the issue grows and mag
nifies, and our politicians and states
men on both sides are preparing
themselves for the great political test
that is now upon us, and both parties
are divided as TO this issue.
There is one thing that is evident:
II our government win put dollars
worth of silver into a dollar, there
will be more argument for il being
worth one hundred cents on the dol
lar. We now place about eighty-six
cents Of actual silver, stamp it and
send IL into the money marts of the
world for dollar. To this there is a
great objection, for IL has not dol
