The Populist primaries will be
held in the different precincts of
the county next Tuesday afternoon,
and every Populist should be sure
and attend and see TO it that the
proper men are sent to the conven-
ton, which will be held on Shaw
island, Saturday the 18th inst.
No doubt but what much of the
corruption which creeps into politi-
cal parties, of a republican nature,
can be directly traced to the lack
of interest taken in the primaries.
For the first time in the history
of San Juan county there is third
party i'll the field. The growth of
this party in San Juan county has
been almost phenomenal. AT the
last election the populist vote out
side of one precinct, virtually
amounted to nothing. While at
the present time the party has
very fair chance of electing re-
preventative and number of the
county officers.
The people of San Juan county
belong to the class which is and
should be first to champion the
cause of the reform party. Yet we
are willing and glad to admit that
party lines should not cut too large
a figure in county politics, but that
a voter should take into considera-
ton the man and his qualifications
to fill the Office to which he aspires,
but there are also other things of
which we must not loose sight.
Reform in county administration
means just the same thing that it
does in national affairs, except it is
ON a smaller scale.
One thing we must not loose
sight of, both in the primaries and
in the convention, is the legislature.
We must see to it that good re-
preventative man is nominated for
this the most important place on
the ticket. If we strictly adhere
to the fundamental principle ofour
party (''The greatest good to the
greatest number'') we will nomi-
nate good honest and intelligent
farmer for this Office, and thereby
man who is closely
allied to the material interests of
our county.

"There is gathered around the

The Republican primaries in the
first ward, at Seattle, last Saturday,
was the scene of one of the most
disgraceful riots the Northwest has
ever witnessed. Sheriff Woolery
attempted to arrest two ex-convicts,
who were acting as judges of the
primaries; Chief of Police Rogers
interceded and a free fight ensued,
an which pistols, clubs, rocks, ETC.,
were used. The Telegraph says
that chief Rogers and his hench-
men were to blame, while the Pr
says it was Sheriff Woolery and
his mob were responsible for the
whole affair.
No doubt had this occurred at a
populist primary every republican
and democratic paper in the state
would blame the party and say that
the party contains only such men
as were always found in the van of
s,iot and disturbance.
As near as we can find out it
was the result of the decent ele-
anent's honest efforts to clear the
polls from the Clancy-Burns White
chapel frauds. No one can but
admit that this damnable ring has
n great pull in the republican party
of Seattle. But to blame the re-
publican party for this disagreable
affair would be STOPPING almost as
low as a great many papers have

COMMUNICATED.

Which shall it be a battle with
ballots backed by brains, or battle
with bullets?
The answer to the above question
depends very much on the wisdom OF
the American people. We can have a
peaceful solution of our present COM
plicated difficulties if the great middle
class people desire it, for they hold the
balance of power in this country, and
they are responsible for the outcome of
the present difficulties. They can avert
the threatening revolution which is
now plainly visible in the near future.
Revolution would be very dear way
to settle our very ag rivated difficulties.
1t is a fools cure. The great middle
class people must make up their minds
to vote for change in the conditions
which now maintain. For these con-
ditions are unnatural and unjust and
are the cause of the present disjOinted
and unhappy state of things.
The two dominant political parties
are committed to the present system of
finance and unjust distribution of
wealth. This unjust distribution is
the result of our very bad financial
system.
But of the middle class many of them
say 1.-THE Populist party is the only
party which advocates financial reform
and that the party has not the right
kind of people in it, to insure success.
[ deny this to be fact, having a
considerable knowledge of the matter,
but if the great conservative middle
class were doing their duty in regard to
financial reform, they would be in the
van of the battle in this contest and
would have no need to complain of the
kind of leaders in this work. The fact
is these SO called conservative folks are
guilty of neglect of duty and are in a
very bad box just now. Many of the
leading spirits among this class have
been all the time thinking that they
would reap a personal benefit from
these unnatural conditions, and now
like the dog in the manager they don't
propose to allow others to bring about a
reform, which they themselves are too
selfish to accomplish. If these con-
sentative people, who are growing in
the manger about the lawless element
who are leading the Populist party were
making an honest effort to bring about
a better condition of public affairs they
might then be entitled to criticise.
Then are there no bad leaders in the
old parties? One would suppose to
hear their supporters talk, that these
old party leaders were something re-
markable for their political purity.
The legislation which will avert the
threatening trouble in this country can
only be brought about by the Populist
party, or some other new party, holding
the same principles. So come brethren
let us put our shoulder to the wheel,
vote right and thus save powder and
lead. w. III. BLACK.

The worst thing that we have
heard about the Whatcom County
POpulist Platform was when the
Reveille claimed that it was all
Republican doctrine. A month
ago the Reveille claimed that the
"Pops" were all either fools or
cranks, and now virtually admits
being mistaken. If the Reveille
was mistaken in the first place is
it not quite likely that she is in the
latter instance.

OF all the horrors known to the
human mind death, by fire is per-
haps the most terrible, and sad to
chronicle is the fact that 600 souls
persisted by forest fires in Northern
Minnesota, between Friday night
and Monday Morning. The town
of Hinckley, a numbering station
between St. Paul and Duluth is in
ashes, and the number of people
who lost their lives at this place
numbers between two and three
hundred. Mission Creek and Poke
CANA, couple of small stations,
are also wiped off the map of Min
nesota and a number Of people were
burned to death and many more
have saw the result of years of toll
reduced to ashes and their home
less condition is something pitable
to contemplate. Whole families
have persisted in some instances
while in other cases sisters, brothers
or parents are left alone in the
world without even a trace of the
dear ones to whom they had been
accustomed to look to for support.
