yard of silk. He was somewhat sur
prised at the cost, and on asking what
was the causew was told by the accom-

owing to the scarcity of silk worms. A
few days afterwards he came to the

GREAT IDEAS GROW SLOWLY.

SEATTLE. Oct. IL, 1898.
To THE EDITOR. In q recent issue of the
Posr-ISrELLIGENoER / see you decide that
can TO advocate reciprocity. Will the
Posr-INTELLIGEScER or some of its numer-
Gus readers. TO settle another dispute, tell
US who was the first man to propose reci-
proeity in our government? JULIUS.
James g. Blaine is entitled to full credit
for celebrating plan for reciprocal trade
with foreign countries and putting 1t into
effect. At the time of the adoption of the
Mckinley Dill, when Blaine's idea was I'M
der discussion, the Democrats searched the
records and found that many statesmen
before Blaine had suggested reciprocity.
The object was, of course, to belittle
Blaire and his work, and yet they could
truthfully say that other minds than his
had grasped the idea. Similarly numer-
Gus persons today foresee that it is the des-
tiny of this country to absorb Canada.
Cuba and Hawaii When the time is ripe
the absorption will take place, and the
name of some American statesman will be
inseparably connected with the event 1t
will then be hard to say who proposed the
annexation, Just as it is hard to say who
first suggested reciprocity. We say that
Darwin formulated the theory of evolu-
ton. but other thinkers had helped him
by their investigations; we say tn at Edi-
son invented the incandescent light, but
he only improved the imperfect devices of
others. Others had planned German fed
erat:on. building great nation around
Prussia or Austria; Bismarck studied the
question for thirty years and then put his
perfect plan into effect.

STATE PRESS OPINION.

The present excitement will soon blow
over, Ksug may get light sentence, and
that will be about all that may reasonably
be expected. II is generally the case that
in suen transactions the real euiprit goes
unpunIshed. While the leading citizens
of Seattle have been demanding that the
good name of the city be maintained by
the punishment of those who traiied it IN
the dust. when It comes TO sending some
of the leading business men of that city TO
the penitentiary, nine men out of ten who
have demanded their conviction will read
lily sign petition for their pardon. -Ev-
erett Times.
The hospitality of Seattle was generous
element in the pleasures OF the association.
The unity of her people is visible in every
quarter and leaves favorable impression
Of her embryo greatness in the minds Of
all visitors. while its effect on the guests
whom she entertains Is inducye to ad-
miration and respect. The members of the
Washington Press Association have good
reason To be glad they were the guests of
Seattle. From first to last they were in
the hands OF gentlemen who were part of
the thrift. enterprise. intelligence and
public spirit of that city, whose kindly
minis,rations left nothing to be desired

posted in the managers name. Its presi-
dent was Populist and SO were some of

ibie theory but mighty little fact-7dcoma
Ledger.
Ie editors of the Washington State
Press Association assembled At Seattle
Tuesday of last week and enjoyed their
seventh pleasant and profitable session as
far as the business before it was con-
cerned; socially, it cannot be too highly
spoken OF, as Seattle fairly outdid herself
in entertaining. An excursion to Sno-
qualmie falls and the largest hop ranch in
the world, an excursion on Lake Wash
ington given by Hyams, Pauson & Co..
and the entertainment by ]. w. Hanna at
the Seattle theater are only few of the
many attractions furnished by the citizens
of Seattle. The committee on reception
and entertainment deserve and receive
great praise for their treatment of the
guests. There is not newspaper man in
the state who was in attendance that will
not say good word for Seattle, the lead
ing city OF the great NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
