NOMINATION. CERTIFICATES.
OLYMPIA, September 10, lse

OLYMPIA, September 10, 1892
To THE EDITOR: Under our present election
law the officers of every nominating convention
naming candidates for state or district Offices
must certify such nominations to the secretary
of state not later than thirty days prior To the
day OF election, giving name, postofice address
and occupation OF nominee in each case Un-
less such certificates are filed in this office as
the law directs 1 will be unable to certify them
to the auditors of the different counties, and
unless / can so certify nominations the county
auditors will have no authority for printing
names OF such nominees on their official ballots
to be used in the election.
As the law Is new, 1t is feared that lapses may
occur through oversight and for this reason the
newspapers OF the state will be doing good
service to the public by giving wide publicity to
the facts herein contained. Respectfully,
ALLEN WEIR
Secretary OF State

Republicans should organize. In every CITY
and town, and hamlet, and school district tAey
should get together, form clubs and societies.
and engage in a vigorous campaign, propasat-
ing the doctrines OF the party whenever the
opportunity arises. The great need of the hour
Is thorough study of economic truths by the
masses. They have listened to wild Theories
and wilder stories so long that they have coms
to believe them and to fancy from hearing false
hoods reiterated that they are truths

diligently 10 their neighbora
1t does not require much time to nnd u

izing into clubs and societies all will have the
benefit Of the views Of each individual thinkee
Then, again, enthusiasm and interest In the
campaign will be aroused. and Republicans
will stand together a. they have done In PIT
years.
Spokane has set good example for Rastan
Washington to follow. Her clubs will visit tn
neighboring towns in the county and mutual
interest will be excited. Whitman county en-
easily do the same thing. She has numbee Of
towns in which rallies can be held, one saca
week from now until election day. and u y
easy enough to arrange for special trains and
reduced fares.
Walla Walla should be the political center for
Q vast country and her clubs could easily visit
Q number of towns. like Pomeroy and Dayton,
where their visit would result in much good 70

Stevens county can have four good mestinQ
at Colville, Kettle Falls, Marcus and Chswslah
during September and October, and then ths
clubs and voters can come to Spokane with
those from the Pslouss and Big Bend for The
grand mass-meeting with which the campaign
in this county is to be closed
Lincoln county should have good clubs at
sprague, Davenport and Wilbur at least and
they can exchange visits. North Yakima and
Ellensburg should be able to turn out ssv.
eral hundred each in their marching clubs,
and Ritzville will be able to exchange
visits with sprasue. There is no good reason
why waterville and Wenatchee should not have
clubs. Nothing would be q better advertise
ment for their towns. Uniforms are not expsn-
sive, aud can be chosen to suit the pockets Of
members.
Eastern Warrington must show that she can
do a. we'll as the west side. They are boating
over there of what they have done and are going
to do; let this side of the mountains say lsn
and do more.

The direction, "Cast thy bread upon the
waters. FOR thou shall find it after many
days" gained its fitness by applying 10 to
the method Of planting rice IN Egypt
When the Nile overdowed its banks, men
sailed upon its waters scattering rice in
all directions This sank TO the ground,
and after the ebb of the water sprang mp
rapidly The fields Of growing grain re-
sembled barley, with a look a little like
oats. To make the grain fit for food, after
it ripens, it is shelled and quickly dried.
Chemists show by analysis that rice CON
tains a larger amount OF fat forming or

grain. 1t would seem, then, that nature
has made a mistake in nourishing heat
