OUR WATER SUPPLY.

The question of issuing $1OO, 600 in bonds
for the purpose of buying the city water
works, is one which is causing more or
less discussion. Everybody will admit
that city ought to have control of its
own water supply and its own lighting
power. So ought every man of family to
own his own home-if he can. Olympia
water works is probably equal to any in
the state, and is constructed with a view to
supplying a city of 2O,OCO people. With
out approaching the subject in a one sided
manner, would it not be a business like
method for the city council to ap-
point committee to investigate and
render a report to the people that
would enable them to think of and
discuss the matter intelligently. If it can
be shown that the net receipts from water
service are sufficient to cover the interest
on the bonds, pay the salaries of the Of
ficers who must necessarily be appointed
and leave a margin for contingent ex-
penses, then it would be good thing for
Olympia to consider the proposition. With
our present financial condition it is neces-
sary to go slow and to act in a manner that
will Justify the end.

ELECTRIC ROADS.

A prominent writer in the Engineering
Magazine for May, gives a very graphic
description of electric railways, and the
manner in which they are revolutionizing
transportation, aud presents bright pict-
ure Of prospective development. Scarcely
five years have elapsed since it was shown
that the trolley system could be made a
practical success as a means of propelling
cars, and today more than 45O roads are re-
ported as being operated by electric power,
having total mileage of more than 1900
miles and employing nearly $500 motor
cars. Thus about three-eights of the street
railways in this country are now operated
by the trolley system. The old tramrails
are being replaced by better forms of con-
sTucuon, handsome ears measuring thirty
feet in length replace the old style of horse
cars, and speed double that attainable
with horses is used with perfect safety

THE reports of lynchings in the South
are startling in their frequency. One, two
or even more cases are noted daily: Prob
ably every man who has been so summa-
rily punished in this manner was richly de-
serving Of death. But the punishment
should have been meted out in legal
manner. Stories of lynchings drive out
siders to the conclusion that the laws Of
the sections in which they occur are either
inadequate or that the people there have
no respect for authority.

THE farmers of this country are bene-
fitted by a protective tariff by an import
duty placed on almost every article he
produces. This gives him the entire con-
troll of our home market. Ninety-two pei
cent. Of all farm products of this country
are sold in our home markets. If it were
not for the tariff laid upon farm products
much larger quantities of them would be
imported than is now done. Still the free
trader insists that the farmer cannot pos
sibly be benefited by tariff on farm

tion, II needs be 1t the expense Of the ap-
preparations to State Institutions. The un-
usual estimates for appropriations by those
In charge Of State institutions are opposed,
aud even the usual appropriations the Gov
ernor declares might be eut.down without
Ill eject In order to have suitable exhibit
ut the Worlds Fair without incurring y
state debt. The reports OF the officers OF
the various asylums, homes and peniten-
tiaries OF the State are reviewed and .
number of recommendations made upon the
management. Free employment agencies
are recommended in connection with the
work Of the State Commissioner Of Labor.
Gov Larrabee's former recommendation 10
endorsed OF special department for the
supervision OF the insurance business Of the
state. He does not think the claim OF the
widow and administrators Of Gen. Belknap

THE AMERICAN INDIAN.


Oeveleplng True Civilization when the
White Man Checked the Process.
! When Columbus discovered America
he also discovered q new race OF men,
who knew nothing OF any country but
their own. 1t Is . mistake to suppose
that the Indian lived In q state OF hope
less savagery, or that be had fallen from
q higher condition He was really work
ing upwards towards civilization, and
had emerged from savagery into bar
barism which compares we'll with that
Of our forefathers. the primitive Aryans.
He could spin, weave, and dye fabrics
made from hair, down and the fibers Of
plants. His basket work and pottery
were alike admirable Copper was
formed into ornaments aud tools; and
some contend that he invented bronze.
The Indians Of Mexico and Peru were
artists in gold and oliver. We owe to
the Indian the cultivation OF maize, the
potato and tobacco. Tribes Of the
Northwest built large houses of hewn
pianks. some Of the Southwest erected
common tenements OF brick ana stone,
others in Central and South America
huge edifices OF hewn stone, ornsmented
with carvings. The dog had been
trained as . beast of burden. Picture
writing had developed into ideogrsphs,
aud touched on true phonetic alpha
bet. The language was effective and
capable OF indefinite extension.
The Indian social state was based on
kinship. the tribes often combine against
. common foe; they had efficient laws,
and were practically free from theft and
many other crimes The Great Spirit
and the happy hunting grounds Of their
religion are fiction originating with
the missionaries: but the Indians had
tnnumerable !etishes and very elabor-
ate ritual The Medicine Man, or Sha-
man, was priest as we'll as doctor, and
worked by faith, all diseases being at-
tributed to an evil spirit in the invalid,
which had to be exercised. The COM
mon Leople had attained however, to .
knowledge OF the power Of simples and Of
the value Of cautery and the sweating
cure. From the point OF view OF the
evo utionist. they were In fair way OF
developing q true civilization OF their
own, when the white man came and
checked the pro- ,ess by destroying them
As to their origin, the traditions OF
the Indians are conflicting, but they ell
agree In asserting local origin, some
from tie sol, few from the sun or
sta:s, and others from berries or ami
mails Science as yet cannot afford an
answer to this question. The theory
that their ancestors came from Asia by
way OF Eehring Straits Is based on little
but the narrowness of the channel.
For, Of fifty-eight distinct families OF
Indian languages In America north of
Mexico, not one has any affinity to the
aboriginal tongue OF Northera Asia.
ncction, it Is just as likely to be due to
immigration from America to Northern
Asia. So far IS language goes, II the
Indians came from Asia, 1t must have
been At time when they did not as yet
speak an articulate ianguage-that 10 to
say. in the remote geological past. The
hfty-etght distinct languages have every
appearance OF spontaneous growth In
the districts to which they are confined,
