FOLDAI. FACTS.

F0LHAL, MINI. Jan. s. 1891.
Editor .SAEAf:-1a am informed that
itsthe last meeting of the Farmers
Alliance held in Argyle. a resolution
vas adopted, asking our representa-
tives in the legislature to work for
he passage Of law which makes
zach township support it's own pau
pers. This resolution Of the Alliance
appears to me to be less wise, and
should be worked against. I shall
"ndeavor to give my reasons for APP
posing the same. It is q known fact
that the majority ofimmigrants who
locate in our midst, come from Dako-
ia, where they have lost their all.
Starved and tired out they come and
settle In the outskirts Of the thinly
populated townships, where all the
settlers as a rnle are poor people.
When We consider that the support
1 nearly all of these families depends
upon the life and health Of the head
of the family. then it is clear that in
these townships will be the most
cases needing public charity. II this
resolution should become embodied
in law, then the poorest taxpayers in
many instances would be compelled
to pay the highest tax for the sup
port OF the poor, while those in bet
ter circumstances would have very
little or none to pay.
] hope that we are MI agreed as to
the desirability Of encouraging immi-
grafton to this county. but ii such a
lew shonld be pnssed, then the a,l-
thorities IN each town would be COM
pelled to adopt . system of inapec-
ton whereby it may he ascertained
whether this or that immigrant is
able to support himself. l have
nothing against the law in other re-
apects, but 40 long as immigration
continues. am in favor of CARRYING
together the burden Of supporting
che poor. l hope that these lines will
not be construed by anyone to mean
chat ! am opposed to the Alliance
IN the contrary l am an Alliance man
md believe in it's principles, although,
have my doubts as to its leaders
i,eing able to steer the vessel Alright
when the storm begins to rage.
Respectfully,

well repay careful and attentive perusal-
BE sTEApFAsT.

Reports from Olympia in regard TO the
senatorial contest continue TO be cheering
The supporters of Senator Squire for re-
election are firm and immovahle- This
solid phalanx embraces pretty much all OF
the Republican majority in the Legislature.
The stragglers are few and far between
cold. spiritIess and comfortless-
This is as it should be. In the words Of
Abraham Lincoln, 1T is bad plan to
swap horses in the middle of stream" 1t
is never wise 10 exchange the true and the
tried for the untried and the uncertain.
Senator Squire has stood FIRE and has never
fiinched. On every great measure that has
arisen or is likely TO arise, the public know
Just where he stands, and that his senti-
rnents are in strict accord with those of
his constituents. By residence, habit,
property interests and long social and po-
htical intercourse, he IS, in the fullest sense
of the word, of Washington a Washing
tonian.
There cannot be, and there is not in the
mind of any intelligent and candid citizen
of this state, whatever his politics, a doubt
that as representative OF this state at the
national capital Senator Squire viii always
be found in the front rank of firm and IN
swerving Republicans when strictly party
questions are pending, nor but what he
will always be found on the side of Wash
ington and the Pacific coast on matters al
fecting local interests
There can be no excuse for losing sight
Of these facts or for ingnoring them. In
many respects these are getting to be
troublesome times. The present Republican
majority in the Senate viii be materially
narrowed after the 4th of next March.
More than one of the brayest and truest
are likely TO make room for Democratic
obstructionists. Some who remain viii be
none the less reliable If they have strong
and true men 10 lean against and 10 brace
them. Under any circumstances failure
to recognize the strong claims Of Senator
Squire for reelection, and the interests of
the state as demanding that result, would
be D mistake, but under existing party and
local considerations such failure would be
worse than a mistake, and only much
stronger word could fifty characterize it
In standing up firmly for his party and
his state he has been true and steadfast.
Let the representatives OF this people be
alike true and steadfast in standing by
him.

nesota and Nebraska. with excessive Bit
terness in each. and in the latter the gov
ernor has found it prudent to call out the
National Guard, and the UNI American, dis
graceful spectacle is presented of soldiery
stacking their arms in the halls dedicated
TO legislation for a sovereign state. In
Montana the shameful scenes of last win
ter are being re-enacted, with two legisls-
tive bodies and the executive in hostile ar
ray against another legislative body
backed by the supreme court. In Massa-
chusetts another deadlock seemed immi-
rent--the senate being tie between the
two political parties-but wise counsels
seem to have prevailed and trouble was
averted by the unanimous reelection Of the
old officers. From Illinois come ugly init
nations of an attempt to unseat Repubii-
cans in the lower house and Democrats in
the upper, in a mad and unprincipled
scramble for an advantage on joint ballot.
These are not encouraging conditions
under which to enter upon the second
century of national existence under the
constitution. In seven great states, at
what should be the very fountain head of
law and order, a condition little short OF
anarchy prevails. In Nebraska the legis-
claiming reformatory principles. appear to
be openly arrayed TO resist an edict Of
their supreme court.
1t is certainly an occasion for serious
thought by conservative citizens. Popular
government il being put TO a terrible
strain. Government by the people is
being reduced TO the level of bunco and
the strap game. Party predominance is
being placed on higher level than
honest representative institutions. Might
is being substituted for right, and the
declaration of an election by the people is
being made to depend, not on the actual
count, but on the viii and preference of
him or those who make the declaration.
There can be no doubt that these
multiplied outrageous conditions viii
arouse the American people TO seek and
discover the remedies. 1t Is pity that
such excuses are required to arouse the
people to the point of lively interest. But
better this than nothing. When aroused
they can be depended upon. 1t is safe to
predict that the New England states will
promptly abandon their absurd require
ment of a clear majority for the election of
state officers, which is but premium to
side-show absurdities. There must be
some provision for non-partisan tribunals
TO settle election contests, legislative no
less than others. in pursuance of rules
which all viii concede to be rigidly right.
Not within this generation must the
spectacle be repeated. of anarchy and
revolution prevailing under the auspices
of the legislatures of seven great states.

Olympia Capital. .sThe absence of Senator
Squire from the national capital to look after bis
reelection, seems TO be worrying some OF the
Calkins boomers: but while they put forth the
importance of the senator's presence in Wash
ington City just now, they are mum concerning
the fact that several other senators have re-
turned to their respective states upon the same
mission that brings Senator Squire here Their
answer 10 this would undoubtedly be that
different"

the candidate for one particular locality. which
should not be countenanced By any body OF
people 1t is not commended that be stands upon
any broad ground as the representative OF the

stands simply and alone IS the candidate OF one

political interests of that city"

REFLECT SENATOR SQUIRE.
A Brilliant Woman's Advice to the
Legislature OF Washington.


Senator Squire has been in congress long
enough TO prove his fitness for Office That he
should have drawn short straw instead OF 3
long straw shows what may sometimes be the
difference of a straw in determining not only
the destiny of a man, bu. the progress of state.
Washington, the state, is so intimately con-
neeted with the name of Squire that the friends
OF one are the friends of the other. Hence il Is
of more than usual importance that Watson C.
Squire, whose term expires in March, should be
sent back to the Senate
Born in New York, Watson C. Squire enlisted
as O private in the Nineteenth New York infan-
try ct the breaking out of our civil war, served
for Eve months in and about Washington and
the upper Potomac, and was then discharged.
Going home to his parents in Ohio. he remained
there until President Lincoln called for addi-
tionsl troops. Then the New York Ohiosn
raised q company of sharpshcoters and joined
the army of the Cumberland and served in di:-
ferent campaigns as commanding officer of the
Second battalion of Ohio sharpshooters, IN
which capacity he distinguished himself at
Nashville and Chattanooga
Later the young Officer received the appoint
rnent OF Judge advocate of the Tennessee dis
tricf, where he stayed till the close OF the war.
With peace came change, but the Squire
coat OF arms was still rifle The late sharp
shooter became agent for the great Remington
Rifle Works, at lion, y. Y, and visited Europe
and South America, making many contracts Tor
the supply OF arms
The spirit of ISIS inspired Colonel Squire 10
invest largely in the young town of Seattle, on
Puget sound, and there he decided 10 make his
home and risk his fortune. Evidently he was
born TO aid the course of empire toward that
wonderful West which Bishop Berkeley saw SIS
in q dream.
Appointed by President Arthur governor Of
Washington territory, he was and continues 70
be the means OF attracting capital TO the region
in which he religiously believes, as must any
far seeing intelligence.
such is the record Of ex-Privste, ex-Colonel.
ex-Judge Advocate, Ex-Governor. now Senator
Squire, who is loved by his fYiends for the warm
qualities OF bis heart AS man, no less than as
offieer, Senator Squire ably represents his peo-
PIE. and not to send him back 10 the Senate of
the United states viii be serious detgiment TO
the young giant of Puget sound.
