We can not believe that there is
more than one man in San Juan
county, whose sense of honor is so
infnitesimally small, as to allow
him to reduce to writing such low
vulgarity, as the letter signed
Jennie" and purport it to have
been written by a woman. The
facts are. no doubt, that the effusiOn
is only the pent up spleen OF a
soured politician, who has never
been known TO father anything he
has written, and who, like lap
dog, now seeks to hide behind the
skirts of woman.
This political monstrosity has
unbounded belief in the credulity
of the public, when he thinks that
any sensible person will believe
that such vulgar phrases as he uses
in his non-sensical effusion, ema-
mates from the pen Of a woman.

Resources of the State Of Wash
ington" compiled by j. I'll. Price,
secretary of state, came to our desk
this week. 1t is a neatly arranged
pamphlet, containing seventy-fve
pages, and is perhaps, the best book
of it's kind ever published. 1t sets
forth the true resources of the state,
by taking each county separately,
and is wholly reliable.
It contains the following about
San Juan:
''San Juan was organized October
31st, 1873, and has an area of 500 square
miles; population, census 1892, 2,l39.
This county lies in the extreme north
western portion of the state, and con-
sists of the islands of San Juan, Orcas,
Lopez, Decatur, Blakely, Henry, Wal
dron, Stewart, Speiden, Flat Top Johns
and number of smaller islands-one
hundred and siXty-two in all-and en-
bracing what is known as the Archi-
pelago de Haro. The Island of San
Juan, the largest of the group, is four
teen miles long by six in width, and
contains immense deposits of lime rock
of superior quality, where thousands of
barrels of lime are manufactured an
nually for the markets of the Pacific
Coast. These islands are we'll adapted
to grazing, and there is a fair proper
ton of good agricultural land, made up
of bottom lands, marshes and fern
prairies.
Sheep raising and farming are sue
cessfully pursued. Apples, pears,
plums, prunes, cherries and the small
fruits produce abundantly.
There are three saw mills in this
county which produce 100000 feet of
lumber yearly.

FAyORS PICNIC CONVENTION.

EDITOR ISLANDER
In recommending that the farmers
of this county meet for social purposes
and an exchange of ideas on all subjects
in which they are Interested; Mr.. Iui-
lock has hit upon the right thing at the
right time. In fact he seems to have
happy faculty of doing that generally.
None needs such an exchange OF
views and opinions, more than the
farmers; for no other class has SO few
opportunities to meet and consult to-
gether.
Now let all come, republicans, demo-
Gratis, prohibitionists, populists, and
those on the fence, and let us meet as
citizens, not as partisans, lay aside all
prejudice, remembering that all are
equally interested in doing just what is
best for the public welfare. Let all
inform themselves thoroughly, as
to the views and policies Of all parties,
their own included, for no man can
form correct opinion, on any subject
unless he look at it from all points of
view. There is more than one side to
every question. Understand them all,
then you will be able to decide intel
ligently, what you ought to do Don't
let any old grudge, or other feeling keep
you away. Remember:
Life is too short for any bitter feeling,
Time is the best avenger it we wait,
The years speed by, and on their wings
bring healing;
We have no room for anything like hate,
This solem truth low mounds seem reveal
ing.
Life is too short"
AS to the date OF meeting, it seems to
have been the general opinion that it
would be better to put it far enough
ahead to give everyone time to prepare.
Therefore September 18th has been
agreed upon.
