When the voters of King county, to the
number of 5000. signed a petition to their
representatives in the legislature request
ing them ito vote for John B. Allen first.
last and all the time, even to the end of
the session if necessary, they meant ex-
actly what they said. The people of this
county are too sensible to believe that
another senator can be elected from Seat
tie. They appreciate that all this talk
about eiecting Judge Humes is insincere.
Judge Humes is man OF ability and in
tegrity. The people Of this county have
honored him in the past and there is every
reason to believe that no has brilliant
future before him. If Judge Humes 10 not
misled by tho Establishments of the men
who are now seeking to use him as . club
with which to beat Allen, he will never
consent to enter losing fight.
John Il. Allen is the choice of tho people
Of King county because they believe that
he is their friend, and they know that he
IL their only logical candidate at this time.

the left side of his neck and stabbed himself

eighty acres, for $i3,5O0. and after paying the
mortgage upon 1t, had about $500 left, with
which he was obliged to meet several notes, the

THE HEAVENS IN MARCH.

Venus 10 nesting close to the sun. March Is
the planet rises about the same time with the
sun, but the planet passes the meridian nearly
forty minutes before the sun on that day.
March the planet IL as sphelion. This IL the
day after Cleveland's Inauguration March 5,
1889. the planet made its perihelion. This was
the day after RaTrisons Inauguration. Curious
astronomy this, that the planet OF love and
beauty should b on opposite sides OF the sun
the day after the Inauguration of two presidents
from opposite political parties. Let political
astrologsrs explain.
During the entire month Mars will rise few
minutes past II p. m, there being not more
than ten minutes variation through the month.
The reason why the planet keeps . uniform
time of setting 10 this: The planet passes the
meridian . little earlier each day. But the
planet 10 moving north. consequently the time
1t occupies in passing from tho meridian to the
horison is daily increasing. This increase 10
just about equal to the difference in time by
which the planet passes the meridian earlier
each day. This keeps the time OF setting nearly
the same.
Jupiter sets at 9:S3 p m. on the LIST OF the
month"; at 1888 on the 18th and at 10 on the last
Of the month.
Saturn 10 coming into prominent view In the
eastern skies, and on March % will be in opposi-
ton with the sun. The planet rises at s:l5
p. on the LIST of tho month. at TIA on the 10Th,
and at sos on the last of the month. Being so
near the celestial equator it remains above the
horizon nearly twelve hours, and at the time of
opposition will be on the meridian 1t midnight
During the spring and summer the hinged
planet will be In splendid position for observa-
ton and can be seen in the constellation Virgo

On the 18th the brilliant Sirius is on the
meridian at 7:06 p m. and sets ABBOTT midnight.
The "Seven Stars" and Aldeberan set at nearly
the same time on that day. Arcturus aud the
Northern Crown will soon shine in the east in
the early evening, the former rising at TOT
