There is nothing of the Virginia
cavalier in this, except that it sug
gests that if o Virginia cavalier were
in this way alluded to he would pull
the nose and smash the jaws of the
tough who thus inyades the sanctity
of home. Without going at length
into the subject we can inform the
Journal that man of the "Virginin
Cavalier type" will be found to be
actuated by his idea Of truth, justice
and right. Ho may be awkward,
poor, retiring and of uniinposing
presence, but he will be true and love
honor, aud be above any small act to
gain either temporary applause OF
power. As complete typo of the
"Virginia Cavalier as was ever
drawn was when Thackeray drew the
character of Col. Ncwcome. If the
journal will remember, that old gen
tleman did not shine ut soirees.
He would have made poor figure
in Congress-, but lie had the some
thing known as nice sense of honor
and humble mindedness. There's
tho Virginia Cavalier" for you.
THE MEDICAL PROFESSION.
TIE attitude of the medical prof
ession toward what is known as
"patent medicine" is not at all un-
reasonable. Thousands of those
nostrums IRE offered to tho public
every year. Some of them are dan.
gerous, and most of them are futile.
Swift's Specific Is. S. S., we are all
glad to say, is not classed among
the nostrums. It has overcome the
wholesome preiudices of physicians
in all parts of the country, and some
of the strongest testimonials in its
behalf come from medical men who
have used it in their practice, and
who do not hesitate to endorse its
wonderful results. This is extremely
Certifying, but by no means aston
ishing, for every claim that is put
forward in behalf of S. S. S. is based
on series of actual experiments en-
tended over long period of time.

IN ANOTHER CITY

Spokane proposes TO bond for 81 200
600, and the Review, in advertising
the proposition, says some things that
precisely apply to the situation in
Fairhaven. The Review declares that
it is part of wisdom to build for the
future and to lay the foundations
broad and deep. 1t speaks of the great
advantage to city that results from
health superinduced by perfect sew,
erage system. 1t adds: "Then the
outstanding indebtedness must be
taken care Of, and the city's finance:
be placed on solid basis and after
ward kept there by good government
and economy. This will bring pros
perity, safety and health to the com
munity.
'By issuing the bonds as the money
is actually needed we shall save in in
terest and probably obtain a better
price for the bonds issued upon the
new assessment, which will show g
flattering gain in taxable property.
"SOOner or later the city will have
to come to this broad and liberal prop
osition. 1t is doubtful whether a bet
ter time will soon present itself. Spo.
kabe now has a municipal government
OF representative citizens, free from
scandal or suspicion Of corruption
There is every reason to believe that
this large sum can be expended with
advantage and fidelity"

TNGERSOLL'S WORK

Charles +. Blackburn uses up lot Of
the beautiful letter heads of the "Hote
Sedro" to write in bold and fair chirogra-
ply the following to this paper. 1t IS
printed for the delectation OF those who
think with him:
EDITOR FAIRHAvEN HERALD-You seem
to deplOre the mighty good that Col. In
gersOll Is doing In freeing the minds of
men and women from ignorance and SUI
perstitiOn.
You regret that so much talent and so
much eloquence should not be devoted to
a nobler cause than that of inlidelity-at
a dol lar head Why, bless the devil ~
sir, | would gladly, cheerfully and will
ingly give twenty dollars to hear Col. In
gersoll. "A dollar is not enough-nor is
that all-money can never paw him for
the good he has done humanity. Yon
need have no fear that Col. Ingersoll can
or ever will destroy any truth. 1t is only
the false that he attacks.
1t Is hypocricy and deception that In
gersoll delights in striking down.
lie is promoter of truth-he advo-
Gates nothing but truth and Justice.
His doctrine -iniidelity, IL you like-is
true morality. He does not teach that
the innocent should suffer for the guilty..
For THE vicarious atonement doctrine"
he has supreme contempt.
Like other intdels he prefers hell of
honest men to paradise of angelic
shams. You say, when Mr.. In
gerSoll dies and goes-we know not
where-there will be more believers in re-
ligion in this world than there are now"
Sir, don't deceive yourself! II you are

OF Christ, you ought to have no doubts
about lngersoll's destiny.

satanic majesty" will be pleased to hear
Pope Bob make a speech right in the
middle of hell. " III so, he might convert
the devil and then hell will be abolished.
Anyway-let come what will-Colonel
lngersoll is not afraid of any supernatural
destiny. According to science. there is no
truth In Chrlstianity-it Is all a priestly
superstitIon-a base counterfeit of moral

MARKET GARDENING

Not only on the islands lying in front
Of Bellingham Bay, but all along the
shores Of this sheet Of water, and far
to inland in many directions, the soil
is peculiarly adapted to market gar
dening. In fact, nearly all the west
end of this county, and especially the
Nooksack valley, could be made to
TEEN with the finest vegetables the
world ever saw. Last fall and winter
cabbage as big as bushel measure, gi-
gantic turnips, huge beats, immense
onions, and numerous other products
of the market garden, raised in this
vicinity, were exposed here and com
mented on by the newspapers and the
people as to their size, perfection and
flavor, and no one who is at all ac-
quainted with the subject doubts for
a moment that the Bellingham Bay
region may be made the market gar
den Of Western Washington. Then,
why is it that these cities are left at
the mercy Of Tacoma and Seattle in
the matter Of table vegetables, and
that, too, when neither Of those places
are the original market Of the pro-
ducts mentioned.
Yesterday dealer here informed a
HERALD representative that there
are no vegetables in the market be-
cause the San Francisco dealers who
have been supplying the Sound region
have been threatened with boycott by
Seattle and Tacoma dealers if they at
tempt TO supply Bellingham bay.
Those towns have long regarded the
down Sound region as belonging to
their commercial bailiwick, and they
insist on selling our dealers vegetables,
as well as everything else, at an ad- !
vance, Of course, so that by the time
consumers here get hold OF the pro-
ducts they must pay four profits-that
to the producer, that to the original
purchaser, that to the middle-man at
Tacoma and Seattle and that to the
retail dealer.
Instead of buying at such prices as
this we should get vegetables here,
fresh from the producer, and these
cities should be the markets at which
the up-sOund cities might obtain their
supplies. In short, the situation
should be reversed.
Here is splendid and certain-paying
opening for market gardening. The
soil is rich and the climate favorable
to the prolific production Of vegetables,
and persons who understand the BUSH
ness of market-gardening and who
have an inclination that way are not
wise if they do not go into it largely.
1t is much surer way to make a
fortune than to sit around and wait
for real estate to enhance in value,
and it would be a much pleasanter
mode Of life than that of standing on
the corners "cussin'" other people for
not doing something to make business.

LEND A HELPING HAND

There are men and women in the
world today who are unfortunate and
should be encouraged to live higher
and nobler lives.
Nearly all have their faults and be.
setting sins, and human perfection is
not found on the top of this green earth
IL is much easier for man to pick uI
and make a fresh start after he has
fallen or erred than 1t is for a woman
The world is so constituted that when
a woman makes a mistake she is con.
demned, and there seems to be no one
willing to extend helping hand or tc
utter an encouraging word.
There Is a class of women who pre-.
fer to lead a life Of dishonor rather
than work; this is very sad state OF
affairs, for work of any kind is far
better and more honorable than any
easy life of lax virtue.
There is another class OF women
who say that money is better than the
most spotless reputation, and for the
gold of this world they will endanger a
happy eternity.
The wickedness and cussedness OF
this world is not confined TO the lover
Of vice alone, but can be found in all
the walks of life.
Tho self-righteous and constituted
moralist led the woman to the master
and were about TO stone her to death
for she had been akenfldgrdnte delictu,
and He, who spake as never man spoke,
said: He that is without sin cast
the first stone," and turning about he
beheld they had all sneaked away, and
the poor fallen creature was left with
him alone. Then He said, Woman,
neither do l condemn thee. Go and
sin no more"
What an example for even this en-
Iightened age. Centuries have rolled
away, but the story of that day lives
in the hearts Of millions of human be-
ngs, and there never was time when

GONE EXPLORING SOME MORE

Lieutenant Schwatka has started on
another Alaskan exploring expedition
This is his third and he has seen
enough Of Alaska to encourage him i'm
trying to see a great deal more.
Schwatka is an earnest man, at that,
who with remarkable fund of in
formation and high order OF intelli-
gence will yet do the world much good
In his explorations il such a thing as
good can come out Of the UNEMPLOYED
wilds Of the byperborcan regions in
which enthusiastically he chooses TO
wander. There may be those who
think that Schwatka makes these trips
just to cool off after one Of his full
length, life-size sprees, but this is a
mistake. He is naturally cool man
under any circumstances and will dis
cover glacier or fall down a flight OF
stairs with the same equananimity
and matter-of-course nOnchalance. In
falling down a flight of stairs, he acts,
IL able to act at all, just as the fellow
did who spurned some sympathy that
was offered him on such an occasion,
with the remark, "G'way, don't come
blubberin' 'roun' mel Zat'sway,
alters come down stairs" And
II it is thought that Schwatka goes to
Alaska just to see things, that's
another mistake, for he often sees lots
of things that other people can't see
and which are really not there. But
this is generally about the time, before
or after, and sometimes both, that he
takes tumble down stairs. Schwatka
is really n scientist. A man OF letters,
and Of enterprise In the exploring line.
His lapses from strict and in a GER
tain sense, upright, line OF personal
conduct are simply something In the
nature OF Democracy In politics, only
sort OF erratic disease, and Is fairly
an illustration OF Byrons idea, that,
"a man being reasonable creature
must get drunk"
Schwatka will turn up all right In

Cornell and Ingersoll

Spokane Review: Cornell university
has long borne the reputation of being
liberal and expansive in its educational
curriculum. 1t is matter of surprise to
learn that this is either not the case or
that wave of bigotry has submerged it
in depths of unfairness. The senior class
in the law department were invited 10
select the lawyer whom they wished to
deliver the annual address. Colonel
Robert G.. lngersoll was the unanimous
choice of the class When their selection
was announced to the faculty, the latter
forthwith put on its severest frown and de-
clined to permit the famous orator to
carry out the wishes of the class. This
veto was prompted by the narrOwest of
telling. lngersoll as lawyer is not In
gerSOll the hcterodoX. Law and religion
are not indiSsOlubly bound together. 1t
is possible for man Of great intellectual
attachments to be a Buddhist and great
eXpounder of Blackstone. Legal lore does
not distract from irreligion. But neither
is dependent on the other, and il is alb
surd to attempt to link them together, as
the Cornell faculty appears to be doing.
COrnells faculty has lowered
the dignity Of that institution by their
action as well as its reputation for COM
mon sense.

George Hazard, a Democrat, whose
only prominence comes from the fact
that he is loud-mouthed tool of the
party that often snubs him, is tramp
ing around the state abusing the
Grand Army, of which he was erst-
while a noisy and disagreeable mem
Der, while he lives on one OF the largest
pensions, if not the largest, paid to
any ex-sOldier in the state. He is also
very angry with the persons who have
military titles and most probably for
the reason that no one has had suffi-
cient respect for him to call him by
some such title. There is very little,
it is true, in the hgh-sOunding
titles, civil and military, that prevail
in this republic of ours, but in most
cases they are certain evidence that
they have been bestowed by friends
and neighbOrs as compliments to their
possessOrs, and when acquired by hon
orary positions in the militia they sig
nifty that there was some good reason
for their existence. Hazard has not
inspired anybody with even that much
consideration for him, despite the fact
that he has been annoyingly numerous
in lOw-grade politics, and should have
earned at least little gratitude from
those whom he has tOadied. He
should take his hat and CO. Get thee
to brewery, Hazard.
