CHINESE THISTLE LAW.

The law in regard to the Chinese
thistle, which is SO plentiful through
out the Palouse country, is as fol-
lows:
Sec, 2424-If any person or per-
sons owning, possessing or having
charge of any land or lands, i'm
proved or unimproved, inclosed or
uninclosed, in this state shall know
ingly, willfully or willingly permit
or suffer any Chinese or Canada
thistle to grow up thereon, and suf-
fer the same to stand until its seeds
get ripe, such person or persons
shall be guilty of misdemeanor, and
upon conviction thereof shall for
the first otfense be fined in the sum
of $40, and for the second offense
not less that $25 nor more $50 to
be recovered with costs, in any ac-
ton to be brought in the name of
the state of Washington, for the
use and benefit of the public school

Tense is committed, or action there
for may be brought before any court

Sec 2425-It shall be the duty

PULLMAN can sympathize with
Sprague, as this city has had as
complete a baptism by fire as now
has the latter city. But fire can
not kill the enterprise and push Of
these western towns, and like Sc
attic, Spokane and Pullman,
Sprague will rise again, and in time
will look upon the fire as a blessing
The new city can be more system
atically laid out, and the buildings
erected will be more substantial
and beautiful. Sprague's greatest
danger lies in the possibility that
the burned railroad shops may now
b erebuilt in Spokane, but if the
change is made through the effort
Of Spokane that city will lose as
much as 1t gains, as it would be
poor sp rit that would prompt the
larger city to prey upon its neigh
boris misfortune. However, it is
hard to tell just how the railroad
company will look at the matter.

THE SILVER DEBATE.

The Horn Harvey debate has been
closed, and in November, 1896, the
people will give their verdict, not
on the debate, but on the question
debated. 1t is questionable if any
one has been changed in their opin-
ion by the debate, but basis for
discussion has perhaps been estab-
lished on which speakers and the
press will discuss the financial
question in the next campaign.
From a careful reading of the rea-
sons given by Mr.. Horn against the
unlimited coinage of silver by the
United States, assuming that his
statements are true, we have failed
to find wherein he has advanced
any reason why this government
cannot coin the silver produced in
the United States at ratio of Is to
l with all the beneficial results Of
an increased redemption money,
and without any speculative injury
to the business or credit of the
country, which it is claimed would
be the result of the unlimited coin
age of silver of the world at this
ratio. The republican party is not
called upon to go any further than
the coinage of the American product,
and if the party desires to be IN
touch with the people both East and
West, it must so declare itself
There is no reason why it should
refuse to protect American silver,
but on the contrary by tradition
and interest" it is in duty bound to
do so; and we believe it will.

WHAT THE FAIR WILL DO.
a better time could not be selec-
ted for Whitman county to have a
fair; times are getting easier, our
people want some enjoyment, and
all are anxious to see how their
products will compare with those of
their neighbors.
Real estate agents throughout
Eastern Washington are receiving
inquiries daily about farm lands
from people in the east, and the IN
dications are that as soon as they
can dispose of their property more
or less immigration to the North
west will follow, and the people of
Eastern Washington should make
an effort to secure as many of these
newcomers as possible.
We need more population. The
more people we have the less taxes
each individual will have to pay.
Nothing advertises a section OF
country more than a successful
county fair. All the agricultural
papers publish news about it, and
the results of the fair are read
throughout the entire country. Mr..
Becbe, the fair secretary, has al
ready several applications from
eastern farm journals for report
of the exhibits and premiums
awarded.
Everyone in the county should
make their arrangements to attend
at least one day, and bring exhibits.
Positively no gambling games OF
any kind will be allowed on the
grounds during the fair.

On the third Fourth Of July Of
Washington's second administra-
ton, a hundred years ago yester-
day, the country had a debt Of
something over $3O0O0,OOO, which
represented the cost of seven years
of war. On this fourth Of July of
Cleveland's second administration
the county has an addition of
1886, 100000 to it's existing debt,
with represents the cost of one
day of peace-election day of 1892.

costs four times as much as seven
years of Washington war, what

THE city council is contemplating
the enactment of an ordinance pro-
viding for the assessment and col
lection of the city taxes by the city.
1t is now done by the county at the
same time the county and state tax
is collected. 1t would doubtless be
a wise move, as it would divide the
payment into two parts, and could
be easier collected by the city.
