OLYRaPTA THE PLACE.

The democrats are talking of holding
their state convention in the state capital.
1t is to be hoped that they will do so, as
Olympia can be reached easily and cheaply
from all parts of the state. The editor of
the Montesano Democrat in discussing the
advantages of this city and Port Townsend
says:
"Olympia has many excellent arguments
why that should be the place of meeting.
In the first place, !. believe it has never had
democratic convention. Then, too, it is
the capital, has good hotel facilities, is
centrally located, has a good building for
the meeting and has a hospitable people
ready to receive with open arms the repre-
sentatives of the unWashed. Port Town
send is nearer to Whateom and possesses
almost all the points of vantage mentioned
in discussing the qualifications of Olympia
One of the points mentioned in favor of
Olympia will be used by Port Townsend
against it-that of the Gapitol-It being the
place for the meeting of the legislature and
ought to be satisfied. OF course this argu-
men5 might be used with greater effect af-
ter next election, for Olympia democrats
are not willing to concede that the meeting
of a republican legislature in any way dis
qualities their city for democratic CON
Vention-indeed they rather think this is
sufficient cause for such a purifying ele-
ment to abide with them brief time at
least.n
While the democrats are considering the
advantages of Olympia as a convention
city, let the republicans do likewise with
reference tosthe state Convention to nomi-
nate state officers and congressman. The
national convention delegate election has
already been fixed for Seattle and we be-
lieve Spokane wants the other convention.
Olympia has just as many good points in
her favor as Spokane, and as the state con
vention will probably be held next Septem-
Der, the weather will be fine on the Sound
and the Eastern Washington delegates
will be glad to take in the Sound country
on a pleasure as well as political busi-
ness trip. Let us have both the republican
and democratic conventions assemble at
the state capital and thus follow the rule
established in many Of the older states in
this respect. We can accommodate both.

"IF Senator Allen should be appointed
United States circuit Judge and Governor
Ferry should appoint his successor. and an
extra session should be called, the legisIa-
ture can proceed to elect a successor to
Senator Allen, notwithstanding the ap-
pointment of the governor. Such is said
to be the opinion of Ex-senator Edmunds,
of Vermont, who is looked upon as author
ity in constitutional matters" The above
is from a well known attorney of this city.

Sugar Beets.

Sugar beets will grow i'll every section of
this country, and, though they may vary
in the amount of sugar contained, accord
ing to soil and climate, yet they are unsur-
passed as food for stock, and it pays to
grow them for that purpose alone. A plot
of ground that is well manured in the fall
and planted to sugar beets next spring
will be an experiment worth trying by
those who have heretofore given but little
attention to growing heets.

THE failure of Messrs. John L. Sullivan
& Company, to make fortune by their
presentation Of standard plays on the
Australian stage reminds man in the
New York Advertiser Of the story Of Pat
Rooney, the Irish comedian, who pro
jected similar excursion to the same
country. He was advised not to venture,
on the ground that there were nothing
but kangaroos out there" "Sure, said
the practical Pat, their money is just as
good as anbody's," How much Of their"
money Mr.. Rooney brought back has not
been reported, but it is presumed to have
been about equal in amount to the sum
gathered in the same field by Mr. Sullivan

IT IS said that politics makes strange
bed-fellows. Imagine the Post-Intelli-
genoer of Seattle, and the Tacoma Globe
both supporting Allen for the senatorship
in 1898. They are both bound to do it at

I had been troubled five months
with Dyspepsia. The doctors told
me it was chronic. I had f11lness
after eating and a heavy load in the
pit Of my stomach. I suffered fre-
quently from a Water Brash Of clear
matter. Sometimes death1y Sick
ness at the Stomach would overtake
me. Then again I would have the
terrible pains Of Wind Collie. At
such times I would try to beIch and
could not. Twas working then for
Thomas McHenry, Druggist, Cor.
Irwin and Western Ave, Allegheny
City, Pa, in whose employ I had
been for seven years. Finally I used
August Flower, and after using just
one bottle for, two weeks, was en-
tirely relieved of all the trouble. I
can now eat things dared not touch
before. Iwou1d like to refer you to
Mr.. McHenry, for whom I worked,
who knows all about my condition,
and from whom I bought the medi-
cine. I live with my wife and family

THE moment a newspaper becomes the
organ of any particular element in com
munity its influence in a general way may
suffer, and whenever it is recognized as a
mouthpiece of any man its influence is at
an end. Its disinterested utterances upon
all questions are the object of suspicion
and doubt, and its efforts to further the
ambitions of its owners are heavily dis
counted, +" says the Press-Times. There is
no doubt about that. Both the Press
Times and the POST -Inteligencer are
looked upon by some people as the mouth
pieces in the courtmartial monkey bust
ness.

few minutes and closing at 9711c. The final
weakness was due to q let-up in the short
demand and to late cables quoting Berlin
lower and Paris and Antwerp unchanged.
Corn was strong and fairly active. Open
ing sales were at a slight decline compared
with yesterday, but the demand was rather
sharp, the local receipts being smaller than
expected and the estimates for tomorrow
light. There was steady advance in val
ues for some time, but the market eased OH
some. Shorts covered freely. Shippers
were active buyers, and there was good
speculative buying. October opened at 4s34

again, advancing to 5O5sc during the last
hour, the purchases OF shippers and some

Oats were quiet, firm and steady, with the
usual narrow fluctuations rs of late.
Hog products were weak and lower in the
early trading, owing to short sales of pork,
but tho market grew steadier during the
latter part of the session, as the opinion be-

Improvement in business was accompanied

The feature Of the day was the sale of"Oo
shares of Birmingham Traction, in three
lots, at a fair price, under present con-
ditions, but the effect will likely be to put
up the quotation. The demand and eX-
pected advance are based on reports of good

mon a month ago are impossible to obtain,

held at $40 at Birmingham. Some surprise is
expressed that the current demand should
be equal to the current rate of production,
which is very near to the top notch. The
fact that this is the case, in spite of the very
small consumption by railroads and allied
industries, is deemed strong argument for
a better iron market
Consumption was never so large for mis-
cellaneous purposes in the history OF the
country as it is at present. Iron pipe,
stoves, agricultural machinery, architec-
tural work, etc, are calling Tor more iron

trades. Northern irons have not felt the
improved spirit as much as Southern per-
haps, because they were not as much de-
pressed during the low prices. There is q
disposition, however, not to take forward
contracts unless at higher prices. Charcoal
irons are not in improved demand, though
better things are expected before long.

NO CAUSE FOR ALARM.
A Material Difference Between Tight Money
and High Money

1t has been stated that Pittsburg bankers
are not apprehensive of stringent money
market. New York bankers hold the same
opinion. The fact that manipulation has
been practiced to make high quotations is
apparep land should be convincing as to the
artificial nature of any fears entertained in
this connection, even If gold was not coming
from Europe at the rate of from $500, ,0G0 to
81, OOO coo day. The following remarks on
this subject are important:
"There is great difference between
tight money market and mere high rate
money market. We had a tight market last
year. That is to say, people who had money
didn't want to lend it on any terms. At pre-
sent capitalists are persuaded that they can
claim full rates for money, but they show
confident disposition and put their money
out freely. With the exception of a few
'cliqued' fancies there is nothing on the
stock list which is not accepted as collateral.
Will we have high rates for money? Yes
