The Manitowoc Pilot says that
the reason why Superintendent
Wells appointed a supporter of
the Bennett law as high school
inspector was that he could not
appoint man having had connec-
ton with the public schools and of
reputation sufficient to justify the
selection, who was not in favor of
the Bennett law, with two possible
exceptions" But why did he not
take one of the two exceptions?

owe cannot take single step
in the teaching of religion without
injury. We have no right in this
country, which invites all persons
of all creeds, to set up one Of our
religious notions as against the
religious notions that any one else
may honestly hold. Just as far
as we do it just so far we encroach
on the stability which is the basis
of our Government.

Rain-making is rapidly becoming
a profession. Frank Melbourne
offers to produce "a good rain
anywhere at the low price of $500

deem; S. d., to show what he can
do. 1t is not unlikely that the
rain-making profession will be
bitterly antagonized in South
Dakota by the artesian we'll men,
who have been enjoying a very
profitable season there.

In commenting on the silver
plank in the New York Republican
platform the Evening Post says:
"If the Democrats in their coming
state convention fall short, even
the smallest degree, of their
declaration on silver, they will lose
the state and will deserve to lose
it" From which it follows, one
would suppose, that the Ohio
Democrats, whom the Evening
Post warned in vain, also deserved
d beating.

In arecent speech Mr.. Mckinley
SAID: "Would Governor Campbell
tell as soon as he entered the
campaign what kind of a tariff
bill the Democrats would propose
next winter? Would the duty on
sugar be restored? Would the
bounty clause be repealed? Would
they repeal the reciprocity clause?
Would it be on the Mills, the
Morrison, the Randall or the
Cleveland British Plan? Nobody
knows" These are questions
which no Democratic stumper will
answer, They prefer to deal in
glittering gcneralities.

with a strong Endorsement of the
Democratic platform, which deals
extensively with state affairs and
commits that party strongly to
reform in that direction, leaving
national politics out altogether.

aged; but it is very certain that
the Republicans should have come

that they might use the organiza-

this is what they have done, and
instead of being unbleached

are once more plain "niggers."

compelled to admit the hopelessness OF any
attempt at equitable re-adjustment. On
account. they reported, of the impossible
itv Of tabulating equalization of the vsri-
ons classes Of personal property, and of
the fact that most items have an arbitrary
value. sthe Board has decided to eliminate
the totals OF these items from the totals
upon which rates of increase and decrease
are estimated"
With such an admission, the object OF
submitting the valuations to State Board
is entirely negatived. The Board becomes
one merely of censorship upon the dere-
LECTION of county Boards for inadequate
valuations. The remedy lies not with
that body, but with the legislature.
There are three methods by which the
end sought can be attained; either the
state tar should be imposed upon real
property only, the equalization should be
made before county levies are determined,
or the state should accept county ap-
praisements and leave to the State
Board discretionary power to impose a
sufficient tax to meet state requirements.
OF these the last is most generally favored.
How TO insure conscientious returns by
property owners is distinct proposition.

The first notable battle in the senatorial
campaign was fought yesterday at olym-
pia, and resulted in complete victory for
the Squire forces. 1t was, in fact, q rout
for the opposition. So hopeless were the
odds and so thorough was their demorali-
cation that they attempted nothing when
the time came for decisive action.
II was not so much the fact of Shaw's
election as the circumstances attending it,
that demonstrated the strength of the
Squire forces. The CaIkins men were count
ing ON certain votes which they failed ut
terly to rally and which were found
firmly arrayed on the opposite side. Both
Candy and Plummer were found TO be
more than willing to step aside If their
candidacy was a menace to the election OF
Squire, and as both had been counted
upon as probable CaIkins allies, the shock
was very great.
The proceedings of yesterday show that
Calkins has but poor handful of faint
hearted upporters-clearly dem onstrates,
in fact, that his election is an impossible
ity. They show also that Senator Squire
has clear majority, and that his election
is practical certainty.

A sALUrARY LESSON.

The difficulty between the Board of Pub
lie Works and the Board of Fire Commits
sioners has terminated very satisfactorily,
and is victory for both Boards. The Par
agon hose has been selected for purchase
as the Fire Commissioners desired, and the
Board of Public Works is justified in its
judgment by the house of whom the hose
had necessarily to be purchased reducing
its bid to 80 cents, the price at which the
Board valued it.
Messrs. Heilbron and Rinehart have
been criticised for insisting that the city
should not submit to extortion, but the
concession made is proof that their course
was only that of business men who desire
to administer the city's affairs upon the
same principles they would apply to ordi-
nary mercantile affairs.
The bold stand they have taken will
have wholesome effect in lettering other
firms from attempting to coerce the city
into paying more than current prices for
its necessities.

demands and in pushing himself forward,
he runs great risk of offending by declin-
ing any invitation. Whether he responds
or declines he is equally in peril. Between
the devil of conaicting opinions and the
deep sea demands upon his encyclopedia
oratory. he is indeed in a trying position.
It is alike hazardous TO talk or keep silent.
But he likes to hear himself talk, and will
keep at it.
After awhile, when he who is now dis
creetly holding his peace shall take his
turn at the wheel Of oratory, IN the very
nature of things the people viii turn and
listen to the newcomer. 'siust for q
change" Cleveland is talking and being
talked about TO an extent that would ruin

Thurston County Is for Squire.
OLYMPIA Capital.


The Capitals position on the senatorial matter
was neutral one until short time ago, when
it announced editorially in favor Of the re-elee-
ton of Watson C. Squire. This decision was ar
rived at after carefully looking over Thurston
county as to the wishes OF the Republicans in
this county In relation to which candidate would
receive their support, should the matter be left
with them at the polls, and in that canvass the
Capital could reach but one conclusion, and that
Is, that Senator Squire is the choice OF large
majority of Republicans of Thurston county.
To anyone doubling this statement the Capital
submits these reasons for the faith within it:
Senator Squire is well known in the county,
having lived here when he made such an excel
lent record as governor of the territory, while
Judge Calkins is an entire stranger TO the county
generally Then many Republicans claim that
as Senator Squire was well known in official life
previous to his election to the Senate and was
considered a at and able man for the position
then, he is none the less so now, so 1t is only
common fairness that he be reelected, having
drawn the short term.

The deadlock in the lower house of the

that Democratic oil and Alliance water
will not mix. Both sides want everything

that has cohesion and homogeneity. The
