THE adoption OF Bellinghsm bay coal
as fuel for the Pacific squadron of our
navy, together with the selection of
Whatcom as coaling station for our
national vessels, looks little odd when
We reflect that the cosl of Bellingham
bay is the lowest order Of Ignite and
vastly inferior in combustive properties
to the Goals of the Puyallup valley and
the lake region back OF Seattle. How
ever, the Puysllup coal fields are all
owned by the Southern Pacific, who
want all they can get for their locomo-
tivea. Hence it is possible that the
government uses the Whatcom coal be-

THE locality on the East Side that
lies toward the river below the county
hospital is settled upon by number of
families. There is now great consterns-
tion amongst these people, for the res-
son that the sewage from the hospital
finds its way down the ravine called
Las Posss and seriously threatens the
health of the neigh kborhood. The mem
bers of the council from the wards on
the East Side will bring the matter
conspicuously before that body today.
The supervisors have been requested to
connect the hospital with the public
sewer that is laid in Workman street.
but the distance is 30 far and the cost
go great that they have refused to act.
The upshot of the affair may be that
the hospital will be declared a nuisance.
In tnat event something would have to
be done at once to carry its sewage
into a public sewer. Now, the people
living below the hospital are justly
alarmed at the fostering drainage that
6nds its wav to their very doors.

DISTURBING BUT NOT REVOLUTIONARY.

The people may we'll feel deeply con-
cerned at the unprecedented scenes that
are now enNcting all over the country.
The unemployed never before were so
numerous, and the distress WAS never 30
generally difflsed over the union, nor so
acute, ss it is now. The outward and
visible sign of that distress is the wild
craze amongst the unemployed to reach
Washington, where they have SONS
crude notion that congress can afford
them immediate relief. This is a mere
symptom Of the disease, which will pass
away as the country comes back to its
normal condition.

times and much Individual suffering be-
cause CT the inadequscy OF employment.
1t 10 absurd to sup pose that the compsr-
atively few discontented men who will
reach Washington are capable, even if
they were willing to precipitste revo-
luton. They will arrive at the national
capital almost literally naked, and
their condition will excite pity in
every humane breast. The strong
arm of the government will not
be required to meet these men
"a belligerents. Bread and rsiment
are the weapons that Will subdue and
gladden. their hearts and pAcate their
warlike spirit, and we have too much
faith in the humanity OF our public men
not to believe that they will find come
means by which their immediate wants
will be relieved.
The condition of affairs is bad enough
without conjuring up shadowy and sb-
surd visions of trouble that will not
occur. The country will right itself in
time. 1t has all the resources it ever
had. A great depression has been
brought about by artificial means. But

pire will soon bring the industries of the
nation back to their pristine health, and

ing under. The era OF bad and i'm pol itic
legislation will give place to one in
which congress will pay more regard to
the welfare Of the people as a whole
than it has heretofore. There will be
lees legislation for the classes and more
for the masses than we have been lately
in the habit OF getting from congress.
In this way the ordeal through which
we are now passing will be productive
of benefit.
Until better times come round again
each community will be called upon to
take care OF its own unemployed poor.
This can be done by efficient organiza-
ton and wise action. The sense Of the
mass meeting held in this city Satur-
day night points to the direction in
which the helpful energy of the COM
munities should be turned. Employ
ment upon public works that it will pay
the public to have carried out is the true
solution of the problem. The temporary
hard times can thus be turned to bene-
fetal account both to the community
and to those in need of work.
