In July.

Think Of the cool, green sea, with its
restful, rhythmic breakers splashing the
pebbly shore. Think of yourself sitting.
slipping lemonade and watching them,
doing nothing, so idle that you are not
even talking to your best girl. Think
Of a great rock, high above you, with
shadowy ferns growing in its clefts,
with water from an ice cold spring trick
ling down its sides and murmuring mer-
rily as it flows off into a crystal clear
pool, where goldfish dart hither and
thither and silvery white lilies lie upon
the surface, image of eternal peace and
GOODNESS.
Think of snow six feet deep in the
valleys of the Rocky mountains, crusted
over hard, and Of you skimming over
its surface upon snowshoes. Think OF
an iceberg, mountain high, with polar
bear clinging to its sides, the mighty
berg looming upon the horizon and sink
ing the temperature of the air and
water down to freezing. Fancy the
glisten of the cold moonlight upon its
frosty sides and the sparkle of the snow
across its icy field. Think of the north
pole covered with icicles, sticking out
stark and stiff from the tablelands of
eternal snow. Think of falling into
river with the thermometer at zero, and
of rescuing yourself by catching on to
floating cakes of ice.
Finally, if all this does not cool you
off, think of the reception you will get
from your rich uncle when you ask him
to lend you a hundred dollars.

The smallpox scare is one of the big
gest things that has struck some of the
doctors for years. They have had
greatness thrust upon them in a min
ute. Their imaginary authority is
simply immense. Their audacity in
many instances is simply reprehensible.
A certificate of examination, vaccina-
ton and scar exposure by the most dis
tinguished physician in America fif-
teen hours in advance Of the time the
same is presented to Tacoma's mighty
mogul would avail nothing. There
must be REORGANIZATION or a
vaccination by the mogul himself.
He swells aud buzzes around and
looks wise. In going from Fairhaven,
where there has not been a case OF
smallpox in the history Of the town, to
Tacoma, the traveller, though armed
with a certificate of the health officer
of Fairhaven. made and dated the day
before ii is presented, showing that the
traveller was vaccinated and In good
health and had not been exposed up tC
that time, will not be taken by Ia
coma's wise man. He must have tn,
ladies expose their scars, the gentle
men roll up their sleeves. He knows
Nobody else does know. There would
be just as much sense in hauling up
farmer living fifteen feet across the cor
porate line Of Tacoma and have him
show up every day as he goes into
town. Tacoma ought to get a health
officer who wears larger hat.

Ultberal Liberals

Anna Dickinson calls the meeting in
which she made her first speech "a bear
garden" 1t was at a gathering of an
organization of people calling them
selves Friends of Free Thought" or
something like that. The girl orator
found what many another person has
found before and since, that the most
truly bigoted, narrowminded and IL
liberal persons on earth are those who
style themselves liberal thinkers.
Many a man who fiatters himself he
is abreast Of the scientific thought Of to.
day and has cast off all old super
stitions is much harder to get on with
peaceably than the severest orthodox
Christian. The Christian of any shade
Of belief has at least traditions Of broth.
erly love and divine tenderness and pity
The man who has emancipated himself
from all this has no traditions at all of
love or kindliness; he has nothing to
teach him patience with human weak
ness or suffering. He mistakes the
sneering at all that men reverence for a
sign of superiority.
There are some things the self consti-
tuted champions of SO called FIRE,
thought will have to learn before they
make any impression on a weak and
wrong headed world. The first is that
the world is wide enough for everybody
in it, and that the Christian has quite as
good right to his belief as the 80 called
liberal to his nonbelief. The second
thing is that humility of spirit is the
very first requisite to progress in science
OF any sort whatever, and that when a
man takes leave of this teachable spirit
he will never learn anything more, and
he is as arrogant and bigoted as any in
quisitor that ever burned heretics OF
witches in the good old time.
Another fact the self STYLED liberal
thinkers must learn is that a gang Of
hard headed materialists. held together
only by the certainty each has of get
ting a chance to hear himself talk at a
meeting, never did and never will dc
the world any practical good. Further.
more, that jawing and insulting one
another and all the rest of the world IL
not proof of superior intellect; neither
are brutality bad manners a sign of indie
pendsnce of thought.
Only the spirit that holds itself recep
tive and ready to follow truth whittier
soever it may lead, the spirit that is
humble and teachable; that loves hu-
manity with a tenderness which would
sacrifice life for Its good; that is toler.
ant to all mankind, recognizing that in
matters of mere opinion every other
mind is just as apt to be right as it is,
and that all who earnestly seek the right
way win find it, each In his own path
only this kind Of an advanced thinker
ever does the world any good.

After all her scolding about the United
States, Canada is the first country to
send in an exhibit to our Worlds fair Of
1898. Part of her show is already on
the ground at Chicago in the shape of
thirteen immense logs from the Canada
pineries. These, with sections of the
California big trees and some specimens
of American timber from Washington
state, viii make the visitors from Europe
open their eyes. One of the Washing
ton or Canadian American trees would
make three or four of the average sized
European trees.

INFLUENCE OF THE SCHOLAR.
Some Observations In Connection with
the Death of Professor Dwight

| the Death OF Professor Dwight
The recent death Of Professor Theo-
dore William Dwight, Of Columbia law
school, has given rise to some fresh dis
cussion of the question as to how far
college men and great scholars are
qualified to organize or lead great move
ments, whether in law or politics, re-
igion or society. That the college pro-
fessor was the great leader in Ameri-
cas- early history is clear. From Thomas
Jetferson's election till after the, civil
war he was politically under cloud.
Just now it looks as if he were about to
have his ''innings" again.
From time immemorial there has been
sort Of dull feud between the quiet
scholar and the active politician.
Theorists" "bookworms," "closet phi
losophers"-such are the epithets the
latter bestow on the former. "They sit
down in their studies, ".says one editor,
land construct in their minds an ideal
society; they evolve an abstract man
from the depths of their own conscious
ness and then want us to make laws to
fit that man" On the other hand it is
alleged that most of the movements to
enlarge popular liberty were inaugur-
ated by quiet scholars, and in America
the antislavery movement was for many
years confined almost entirely to that
class.
Professor William Ct. Sumner. of
Yale college, wrote a little work on
American Currency" some seventeen
years ago which revolutioaized the
views of many, and his subsequent ar
ticles on finance in general have had
considerable effect. Just at present he
is severely criticised for his opposition
to the tariff
Charles Sumner entered public life
avowedly as an advocate of applying
scholarly methods to all public issues, (
and Wendell Phillips, James Freeman
Clarke, James Russell Lowell and many /
others Of that era were brilliant exam /
pies Of the scholar in politics" In /
deed, it is an extraordinary fact in I
American history that when the radical !
abolition element was too small co ex-
cite any feeling except amusement and .
contempt IL contained a clear majority
of the most eminent poets, authors and
scholars.
So early was the fact recognized in the
south and west that Edward Everett,
the most conservative Of scholars, was
then popularity supposed to b a radical
even down TO the time when
the Bell and Everett campaign began.
history would seem to prove
that, while the so called practical poll
ticians always win the first battles, the
advocated by the college pro-
fessors often triumph in the end. Pro
lessor Dwight effected many reforms in
prison management and charities, but
his specially was the law. He was I'M
Iuestionably the most successful teacher
Of law of his time.

BEWARE or THE COMBINE

The two chief combiners who fixed
up the combine in the city council are
again fixing up combination to con-
troll Republican action in Fairhaven to
carry out their purposes in the coming
Republican county convention. 1t
would be very fine indeed if the Re
publcans of Fairhaven could go into
the county convention and have a
judge, prosecuting attorney, a repre-
sentative TO the legislature and a menu
Der of the board of county commission
ers all nominated and all from Fair
haven.
No man, however, that knows any
thing about the workings of politics
can hope that such a division in favor
of Fairhaven will be made in the
county convention. More than this,
the welfare and harmony of the Re
publican party i'm carrying out Repub-
lican principles is paramount to the
political advancement Of any member
of the party. However much the
friends of each of the four candidates
in whose interest the combine is fixed
up would like to see such candidates
nominated, there is no use of butting
against the impossibility. But con-
ceding that all four could be nomi-
mated the question of their election
would be something that sections and
localities outside of Fairhaven would
exert the controlling influence in the
votes cast.
Are the Republicans of Fairhaven to
meekly set still and let the combine
dictate the political action Of the party?
Are the people to lay aside their Amer
icanism and let couple of men shape
up all political action, and deal out to
their servants political place or polit-
zeal pelf? Public street report says one
Of Fairhaven's manipulators has been
seeking by threats to get a deputyship
whereby his prehensile fingers could
manipulate the drawing of juries. Pub
lie proclamation is made on the street
that no Republican from Fairhaven
shall go to the convention unless, for
sooth, he bends his knee and pledges
fealty to the candidate the manipulation
wants nominated for judicial honors.
Some of the candidates are already
calling out "deliver us from our
friends" Republicanism in Whatcom
county ought to be synonym for
integrity and fidelity to Republican
principles. The majority of the party
is too small to hazard the success of
the party by countenancing fixed-up
jobs not in the interest of the people or
Republicanism.

WHISPERS ABOUT WOMEN.

Though Anna Dickinson is only fifty
years old, she has been before the public
for nearly third of century.
The youngest school teacher in the
country is supposed to be Miss Clara N.
Greenwald, of Bernville, Pa, aged fif-
teen years.
Miss Abby Kirk, to whom was recently
awarded the George w. Childs prize at
Bryn Mawr college, is the youngest
daughter of J. Foster Kirk, the his
torian.
The order of Marie-Louise, which has
recently been conferred upon Mrs. Z.
Burd Grub, the wife of the United
States minister at Madrid, by the queen
regent of Spain, is very handsome dec
Grafton which has been far more spar
ingly conferred than most of the other
Spanish orders.
The home of Mrs. Buffalo Bill is
Scouts Rest, North Platte, on the Union
Pacific road. 1t is surrounded by 5000
acres of prairie land and magnificent
stables and pasturage, where are kept
many luOusduu me bIOOueu uOrseS anu
cattle. Mrs. Cody is an amiable, house
keeping woman.
Baroness Burdett-Coutts is now re-
stored to the friendship of Queen Vic
toria. AT one time the relation existing
between her majesty and Lady Burdett-
Coutts was extremely cordial, but at the
time of that lady's marriage they be
came somewhat strained, as the queen
strongly disapproved Of the step.

A large number Of Republicans who
are not candidates for office and don't
own anybody got together yesterday
afternoon in Fairhaven to assert their
citizenship. They insist that they will
take the burden Of voting at the pri-
maries upon themselves, and they will
relieve the professional slate makers Of
the hardship they have taken upon
themselves to fix up things to carry out
selfish ends. These Republicans sub
init names Of candidates to be voted for
as delegates to the county convention;
they endorse them as worthy, and not
Ia the interest Of any clique or job.

dependence Tex, MISS NJ. H. WILLIAMS.
who officiated, was the unanimous choice
of the state for that honor, and is a
granddaughter of Sam Houston, the
Washington of Texas"
The method of choosing her was a
novelty. The Galveston Tribune sug-
gested a newspaper ballot. 1t was hail
ed with enthusiasm, and after spirited
contest of several weeks, all the gallant
young men of the state electioneer-
ing for their favorites, the count showed
that Miss Williams had received 10000
votes, that being 10000 more than her
nearest competitor had. Thus was she
declared by ballot "the most popular
young woman in Texas" and the deci-
sion was ratified by unanimous hurrah
from the Sabine to the Rio Grande.
She is not only young and beautiful,
but intelligent and cultivated, and soon
after being chosen addressed a public
meeting ON the San Jacinto battlefield
with great ability. Very few are now
living who fought in her grandfather's
command on that famous field, but they
still hold their annual reunion there. 1t
turns out that she, too, is a temperance

and asked Secretary Tracy to allow her

thought it well not to change the old
custom. The Texas is the largest war

monies at her launching at the Norfolk
yard were highly impressive.
