Now that the editor of The Sun has
voluntarily withdrawn from the
senatorial contest, we desire to ex-
press our appreciation of the very
handsome endorsement received, not
only from the press within, but also
without the district. We would also
acknowledge the cordial support of
the many friends who have volun-
teered their services and assistance,
and in thanking one and all, would
bespeak for the nominee from Stevens
county, as cordial an endorsement
from the press and as hearty a sup
port from the public

Seeding is all done except barley and fax,
and many farmers are leaving these until
after the corn and potatoes are planted;
corn will nearly all be planted this week.
The all wheat farmer will soon be COM
planning because he has nothing to do, and
next fall he will complain because the
price of wheat is so low.
The sound of 'too wet' has hardly died
away in the distance, when we heard the
murmuring cry, 'too dry" and this murmur
had hardly escaped the murmurer's lips
when the distant thunder was heard and
the rain descended and the thirsty ground
was thoroughly soaked. Whatmurmuring
creatures we mOrtals are; if we had weather
to please everyone we would be obliged to
each live in little world by himself.

POLITICAL.

In regard to the candidates from
Stevens county, who are seeking the
republican senatorial nomination, it
is proper, now that an early con-
vention is a probability, to state the
situation so far as local aspirants for
the nomination are concerned.
Of the four names mentioned in
connection with the state senatorship
namely, S. A. Flaherty, E. j. Jones,
w. G. Bicknell and w. j. Munro, tho
first and last named are not now in the
field. This leaves Stevens county
with but two candidates, and as but
one will be nominated, either Mr..
Jones or Mr.. Bicknell will be before
the district convention for the nomi-
nation.
OF the respective candidates, the
decision of our county convention will
designate which of the two are to go
before the republican district con-
vention and ask for it's endorsement,
and as Stevens county has not had a
representative in either branch of the
legislature since 1885, it will ask that,
as a measure of right and justice,
the convention recognize the nominee
from this county, as entitled to the
senatorial nomination. 1t may also
be said, that the republicans of
Stevens county propose to go as a
unit, and to this end the field has
been cleared of all but two contest
ants. The contest will therefore be a
quiet, peacable and entirely good
natured effort, between the two can
didates and their friends, and who
ever wins will be the standard bearer
of Stevens county's republicans.
No one has been forced out Of the
field, nor are there any animosities.
The situation is simply a desire to
simplify the contest, for the good of
the party and the advancement of our
claims to the nomination for Stevens
county.

Formerly it was asked what shall
we do with our surplus revenue. Now
it is conundrum how to fill the
chasm-MoRRIs Sun.
And, surprising as it may seem to
the public after hearing for a year the
doleful tale that it is the fault of the
present administration that such a
chasm exists, the first question was
asked during Cleveland's former ad-
ministeration. The chasm has ap.
peared only after the republicans
fixed and administered laws during
the four years following Cleveland's
first term. It might have appeared
sooner if Growers veto power hadn't
been used on the acts of republican
senate-Benson Monitor.
Well, let us for the sake of argu-
ment, admit that the situation is the
result Of previous legislation, what on
earth has the present administration
done or is it doing to fill the void?

Affairs in England continue to look
very discouraging for the Rosebery
government, and it is not improbable
that parliament will be dissolved and
new election ordered? The small
liberal majority having been recently
decreased by the detection of the
Parnellites, leaves the government
seriously hampered, and unless there
is bold or successful move to reunite
the discordant factions, defeat is only
a question of short time. In the
event of new election, the general
impression is that the Tories will be
successful.

Croker the chieftain of Tammany
has resigned, and strife fercer than
a contest for the presidency was
waged among his would-be successors.
The position is more influential po-
litically, more valuable financially,
and more desirable generally, among
the gorilla element of the democracy,
than the presidency. Any honors
that may attach to the proudest
position in the nation, don't count
with Tammany. It is patronage, not
patriotism, official power, not indiv-
idual rights, party spoils and not
party principles, that the rank and
file of Tammany represent.

We do not wonder that many lead

ured terms, those of their party in
congress who have made it impossible
for the party to carry out it's plat
form pledges. There is no question
but that the tariff, as it stands, is a
protective measure, hardly less
obnoxious than the Mckinley bill,
and far from what was promised and
