gether with large quantity OF feed.
1t seems to be mystery how the fire orig
mated. Mr.. Searcy and son were return
ing from where they had been building
fence and discovered the fire bursting
from the windows in the barn. Mrs.
Searcy was visiting sick neighbor, and
it WAS only by the most determined eff
forts that the flames were kept from
spreading to the house. A large stack
OF straw also burned, and had assistance
not arrived just when it did a number
of cows would have perished Several
hogs were burned to death, also a lot OF
chickens. ]. M. Curl was pretty badly
singed while saving the gang plow.
Part Of several sets of harpess was saved
but considerable grain was destroyed.
The loss viii fall heavily upon Mr.. Scar
cy, as his crop was light anyway, and
he was just preparing for the threshers,

county has ever had. And the same may
be said of Roberts as clerk. Everybody
knows that the affairs of this Office are safe
with the professor.
The office of coroner is of considerable
Importance and Aaron Hartsock has been

The republicans of this city owe it to
themselves to see that Alexander McKen-
zie (or Sandy as he is usually called) and
Theodore F. Mentzer get the full party
vote. They are the republican nominees
for the legislature, and men nominated
not only because they are trne republicans
and qualified, but! because the country is
entitled to such representation. No better
friends of Olympia live in the state; the
republicans of thiscity should keep faith
with the country and elect them. They
cannot be defeated except they be traded
off here in the city, and this may also be
said of Israel and Osborne for county COM
missiOners.

VOTE FOR OLYMPIA.

Thevote of this city on governor will show
that the Olympia people believe in pro-
tecting their own homes. Many of our cit
liens will not be misled by the cry that the
canal will help the whole state. If you
wish to reap any benefit from the canal if
it be dug, you must go to Seattle, and if it
is built The TRIBUNE has no doubt that
very many of the citizens of this city will
move there. That will be the only place
in the state where any money will be made
for the ten years during its construction.
The success of the canal means a reduction
of the value of real estate in this city; the
lowering of rents ofeYery kind of property;
a decrease in every character of business
and trade; men will then be'outof employ
ment who now have work; buildings will
beempty that are now occupied; there will
be nothing for the real estate man to do.
Why should any one desire to buy
property in this city or county when it
would not increase in value one dollar per
year. when he could buy in Seattle with
ten years of prosperity and speculation as
sured2
"Men seeking investment are not fools /;
they look only at the prospects of the future
of the city when they purchase" says the
real estate agent in Seattle. Here's pay
roll of one million dollars year for ten
years, and by that time Wen have a paw
roll of one million more per year from pri-
yate institutions, manufacturing, etc.
Where can you find such prospects or such
future for city,
Look at Olympia, no public works, no
public money being spent, nothing being
done; in Tacoma, Whatcom, Everett, Port
Townsend, in fact anywhere on the Sound.
All together they haven't one-fith of our
pay roll. Besides, we have more business
and industries than all of them, save per-
haps Tacoma. But then again this million
dollars per year for our canal comes direct
from the treasury of the United States and
just that much is added to our circulation.
If you expect to realize on your real estate
investment within the next ten to twenty
years you must buy in Seattle. And THE
TRIBUNE believes that no living man
doubts the truth of those statements.
Every man in this city who votes for that
canal plank and John McGraw, who is ad-
mitted to be its head, does so against his
own best interests if he owns any property
in this city, but if his interests are in Sc
attic, and he wishes to vote for his home
and against Olympia, he should vote for
McGraw. Voters, awaken to the fact that
you must stand up for your own home.
Self-defense furnishes its own reward.

VOTE FOR BOWEN.

Major Bowen, candidate for state treas
urer on the republican ticket ought to

Of this officer the funds of this state are
to be paid out upon proper or improper
vouchers, and with Major Bowen in charge
the public funds will be absolutely Sc

treasurer for three years and is thoroughly
acquainted with the details of the work..

LET every club stand on its own bottom''
and let every city and town grow and pros
per by reason of its merits and the energy
and public enterprise of its own citizens.
That city that uses its political influence
to injure its neighbor in order to build up
itself has forgotten that precept, ''Do
unto others as you would have others do
unto you" The Seattle ring is not so
constituted. 1t would rob the whole state
of an equitable distribution of financial
aid, in order to foster scheme of certain
speculators to enlarge Puget Sound to the
end that the townsite of Kirkland now
miles and miles inland shall become city
on the sound so as to make its town lots
