Return of M. K. Downa

Mr.. NJ. f. Downs, president and
manager of the Blue Canyon Mining
Company, arrived home yesterday
morning after an absence of about two
months in New York city. At Helena
he was met by Mrs. Downs, who ac-
companied him home. Mr.. Downs re-
ports business quiet throughout the
East. Money is plenty but capitalists
are extremely wary about Western
securities and real estate. Money on
call for home investments is probably
lower than ever before. There have
been few large Western schemes
worked through lately. The day be-
fore he left it was reported that the
Portland Gas Company had placed a
million in its bonds.
Mr.. Downs states that extensive and
costly improvements will be made al
the mines at once. Washers, bunkers
tramways and other equipment WI II bt
constructed at once involving an out
lay of $4,000 or more in the next
ninety days.

In the Superior Court

Judge Winn adjourned the superior

OBJECTS TO BONUSES
FAIRHAYEN, Wash. May Z, Is!

FAIRHAvEN, Wash, May Z, 1892.
The city council of Fairhaven have
advertised for sealed bids to furnish
sewer brick, to be awarded May l1th
to the lowest responsible bidder. In
today's HERALD there is a proposition
from Il business man to the Chamber
of Commerce, asking for bonus of
$1,000 to start a plant for the manu-
facture of brick and tile. Now while
it would be well to start all the enter
prises possible in the city, still it would
be unfair to give any one man or a
company an option of $1,000 to conf
pete with the other brick-makers in
Fairhaven, who are just as competent
and willing to furnish brick without
any bonus. The Chamber of Com
merce should look at this and not dis
criminate in any way between the
brick-makers of Fairhaven.

The value Of exports from Puget

time-worn saying, but Sir Francis
Galton has been investigating the re-
suit so far as temper is concerned, with
the following curious results, based on
the peculiarities of 205 couples. He
found that 5S per cent. of the wives
had good tempers, against only 46 per
cent. of good-humored husbands;
twenty-five husbands had but mild
and docile wives, and twenty-four Of
them had fretful, violent and master
ful wives. OF fifty-four bad-tempered
men, thirty-two had good-tempered
and twenty-five bad-tempered wives
IL was also found that % per cent. Of
the wives are fretful, 10 per cent. vio-
lent, and 9 per cent. masterful.

wAsHINaToN's DESTINY
The Pennsylvania of the Pacific Slope
Lumber and Coal

Aho IthBhylNdulh Vi Iuo TdCluC OlOpb-
Lumber and Coal
The state of Washington, says the
Philadelphia Record, is destined TO be
the Pennsylvania of the Pacific slope.
Its magnificent forests, like those
which hundred years ago covered our
mountains and plains, are made more
valuable by the comparative scarcity
of lumber in 1892 as contrasted with
1891, and by the superior means OF
access to market in Washington. But
after the timber shall have been dis
posed of the coal supply will still re-
main. 1t is already known that in
eighteen counties of Washington work
able veins of coal exist, covering an
area Of l,000,00O acres. The coal is
found i'm ten different measures, vary.
ing in quality and composition from
true camel, showing 50 per cent Of vol
atile hydrocarbons, to semi-anthra
cite of 81 per cent. fixed carbon. BE.
tween these extremes are found Goa
adapted to all uses-fOr making gas
steam, coking, etc.
For both lumber and coal there is 9
good home and foreign demand on the
Pacific coast. With a fruitful soil, q
delightful climate and this magnifi
cent endowment of material for cheaI
manufacturing the future prosperity o.
the new state in the extreme North
west is assured. No wonder thai
cities are growing up on Puget sounC
as, while Apollo sang, "Illon like f,
mist rose into towers" And, w
might add, Washington is the creates
shingle producing country in tn,

RARE OPPORTUNITIES.
What the South Has to Offer the
HOmeseeker.
Rich Lands at Low Figures-Early
Crops at Fancy Prices.

A certain small town in Louisiana,
and another in Mississippi, on the
line of the Illinois Central r. r. but
few years ago had absolutely no
commercial Importance, and from
them not dollars worth of produce
was sold to distant market. This
season, however, it has required from
one of them, an entire fruit refrigera-
tor car every day for six weeks to
transport it's early Crops to the North
ern markets, while from ten to twen-
ty car loads per day of vegetables
were shipped during the season from
the other. This is but a single illus
tration, and by no means the most
forcible one that could be presented;
of the rapid development of certain
sections of the South, in a profitable
agricultural section. There are many
localities in that direction, particul-
arly in Tennessee, Mississippi and
Louisiana. on or near the line of the
Illinois Central Railroad, that, al
though, as yet undeveloped, are cap
able of easy cultivation, and will grow
the finest kind of fruit and vegetables.
Lands well adapted to growing early
strawberries and grapes, OF quality to
bring fancy prices in the market, can
BE obtained there very cheap-in some
instances as low as 81 per acre. The
availability of the Illinois Central fast
fruit and vegetable trains for sending
the crops to profitable markets adds
but final weight to the security of its
being profitable enterprise toengage
in the development of these lands.

raphy of the country, character of the
soil and products to which it is espec-
tally adapted, prices and kindred mat

subject, address at Manchester, Iowa,
