Good Organizations.

The political machine, if built on
good designs and run by conscientious
engineers, is good thing, thinks the
Yakima Republic:
A county as we'll as state must
stand by good men in the party and
and help them to organize. The more
men there are who are personally in
terested the better. There can not be
too many. Some must study legisla-
ton and it is in favor of a man that
he does. He will be the man to or
ganize. Then help him, and do not
sheer at the necessity. In private life
we always have men who make a close
business of the matter in hand-and
so it must be in politics. Those who
will honestly study the best interests
also they be honorable men-are
the ones who should be helped to Or
ganize and move forward. We all
know our men. Let us help, in @
party way, to make a complete organ
ization after advising with those we
know to be working for the best of all
There is no mystery about it, and il is
nonsene to be turning up noses at or.

Republican Opportunity.

The republican party this year has
an opportunity to win by good
majority. Democracy is necessarily
at disadvantage ut this time, and
the populist party is in bad odor every
where for reasons that are known to
people who read. With the very best
men in the party on the ticket the re-
publicans will sweep the country; but
they must be the best men and nothing
else will be satisfactory.
If republican candidates are select
ed because of their fitness for the office
to which they aspire, who have the
confidence of the people, and whose
records, either public or private, will
bear the scrutiny incident to a politi-
cal campaign, the people will show
their approval by giving them big
majority
The republican party in this county
possesses such men, and if any candl-
date does not come up to these re.
quirements he will meet with opposi-
ton and we hope defeat in the prima-
rles.-MontesanO Vidette.

Mammals of the Olympics.

Bernard J. Brctherton, who will be
remembered as one of Lieut. O'Neil's
party that crossed the Olympic Noun
ta1ns several years ago with a pack
train and soldiers, was in the Seattle
On his way to Hood canal. For more
than two years past he has been sta
tened at Kodiak, Alaska, first as
deputy collector of customs and then
as collector for the department of
agriculture and the British museum.
He made very complete collection of
the mammals of Kodiak, from the
great bear to the field mouse.
MIR. Bretherton is now field agent of
the department of agricu1 ture. The
department is mapping the geographic
Cal distribution of mammals, and has
detailed Mr.. Bretherton to make a
biological exploration of the O1ympi c
| mountains. He will leave Hoodsport
Saturday morning with packhorses
and packer for Lake Cushman. From
the lake the Skokomish river will be
followed to its head waters, and then
the head waters of the Dosewa11ips
will be reached. Mr.. Bretherton takes
with him seven dozen traps, and ex
poets to bring back the prepared skins
of all the species of mammals in the
rnountains-elk, deer, bears, but
especially the rodents. Of the latte,
the whistling 1narmot is the most in
teresting. It is not certain that this
strange animal has been described by
scientists. The sewe11e1, or mountain
beaver, may haye to be sought else
where than in the mountains, and Mr.
Bretherton may make a trip to North
Bend, where there is large sewe11e.
colony. In his previous Olympic tri1
Mr.. Bretherton brought back skins Of
all the birds in the mountains.
| The present exploration will cover
six weeks or two months. Mr.. Breth
erton is vigorous young man with {
face bronzed by outdoor life. He i.
more than a mountain climber, being
an excellent naturalist, and it is very
likely that he will discover yet TN

Albert Briggs, of Port TOwsend, Dead.

PORT TOWNSEND, Aug. 1O'-Albert
Briggs, aged 81 years, who came to
Port Townsend in 1852 and was the
oldest pioneer in Jefferson county,
died at o'clock this morning. He
had been i'll week, suffering with
pneumonia. In the early history OF
Puget sound Judge Briggs was prom
inent figure, being a member OF the
territorial Legislature in the early
sixties.
ALBERT Briggs was born at Sholam,
VT, on August 26, 1913. His parents
were both natives of the same state.
When he was years old his parents
moved to Pennsylvania, and the fol-
lowing year to Guernsey county, Ohio
where he was brought up on a farm.
AT the age of 16 he commenced to
learn the trade of carpenter at Cam
bridge. In 1885 he removed to Seneca
county, Ohio, with his family, where
he worked at his trade until 1874,
when he went to Indiana to live.
A few months later he moved again,
this time to Chicago, and from there
to Andrew, Jackson county, Iowa, of
which state his brother Ansell was the
first elected governor. In the spring
of 1S47 Mr.. Briggs, with with his wife
and four children, started with an OK
team on the weary march across the
plains to Oregon. He crossed the
river at st. Joseph, Mo-, and joined a
company of 115 wagons, which was
soon found to be too large, and was
then divided ito ten parties. In the
party which Mr.. Briggs were the late
d. B. Hastings and David Shelton.
The journey was accomplished with
out serious accident or adventure.
They arrived at Portland October II,
1917. On the 1st of January 1913,
Mr.: Briggs went to Oregon City, where
he worked at his trade until the fol-
lowing fall, when he took up a claim
on the Santa Anna river. In 1919 he
went to the California gold fields, but
soon returned to Oregon, where he
worked at his trade and farmed until
the spring of 1852, when he moved to
Puget sound. He passed through
Long bay with his scow and named it
Scow bay, q name which it still retains
When he arrived at Port Townsend it
was city with one house Mr.. Briggs
located donation claim adjoining
the town and engaged in farming,
stock raising, cutting piles, squaring
timber, etc. In 1885 Mr.. Briggs mar
ried Miss Isabel Cook, a granddaughter
of Capt. Thomas Cook, of Revolution
airy fame. She died in November 1888
Mr.. Briggs was Republican, and was
at different times county superintend-
ent of schools, county commissioner,
probate judge for fourteen years, in
the territorial legislature from 1861 to
1864, all of which positions he filled
creditably. l-P.-I.

Juggling with School Land.

Something of sensation among the
politicians and business men of Whit
man county has been presented
through the Investigations of Secretary
Cowen, of the state land commission
While the names of those interested
are not given there will be but little
difficulty from the references made,
in tracing the guilty parties. In his
report Mr.. Cowen says: II feel that
[ should inform the board of a state
of facts commonly reported by men
of affairs in Whitman county. In
the absence of absolute proof confirm
atory of the charges made, I refrain
from mentioning the names of those
alleged to have been CONSPICUOUS in
this transaction. 1t is said that in
1891 and 1892 certain members of the
board of county commissioners. to-
gether with a high official of the
county, we'll known lawyer of Colfax
and prominent banker, entered upon
some secret arrangement whereby
large areas of the most valuable schoo
land in Whitman county were LEASED
for trifling sums to those whom they
might designate. To some degree the
record of the leases confirms thi
statement, and, no doubt, patient in
vestigation Of this rubject, would
throw a great deal of light on thu
fraudulent and reckless manner il
| which the land leases of the state hav,
been manipulated."- Olympian.
