There may be occasion for unrest among
tire hep growers over the attention now
being paid by brewers and distillers to
the discovery by Japa lese student, who
was educated in Glasgow, of new
method OF obtaining diastase, whose chief
characteristic is the transforming of starch
into sugar. The student, Takamine by
name, claims to have discovered process
by which the ordinary method OF mailing
can be dispensed with, and at the same
time secure substance in the production
of diastase which is far more powerful
than yeast. Edinburgh brewers are now
investigating the merits Of the discovery
and New York company has gone few
steps further, having already fitted up a
plant to work under the Takamine process.

1t is undoubtedly true that there are
too many dogs running about the streets
of this city, and thinning ont OF worth
less ours would be generally appreciated,
but it is also true that there are many val
liable hunting and watch dogs here which
are cherished by their owners and are Of
much worth for these purposes. The
owners would greatly regret to part with
these, but the high tax assessed by the
city practically means death to many of
the good as well as the yalueless dogs.
II the cur-tailment OF the latter is aimed
at by the city fathers it can be accom-.
plished as well by reasonable tax-say
dollar head; but If a revenue is the
point, the policy is short-sighted, for the
increase in revenue must necessarily be
expended in an increase of the police
force, for a good watch dog is of more
protection to house than the periodical
appearance of pstrolman. The Law
looks as though 1t was framed for tn,
benefit of thieves and vagrants, ant
should be corrected.

This is the day commemorative of St..
Valentine, when, according to the best
authorities, the maidens fair will catch a
glimpse Of the matrimonial futurity by
observing the following directions: They
must bic them to bed one hour before
midnight, carrying taper only as
light, and, never casting glance to left
or right, bat looking straight ahead, put
out the taper on entering their bedrooms.
On the threshold they must unbind their
hair. then wash their hands in rosewater,
and, standing before mirror, slowly eat
a crisp seed cake baked in the shape Of q
heart. This done all in the dark, and
making sure never to retrsce step, they
get into bed and to sleep with all dis
patch; for If they can dream before mid
night the vision will present the form
and features OF the future hus band.

The great state Of Pennsylvania has
just completed a capitol building at cost

going ahead with the building of state
house at an estimated expenditure of at
least a million dollars. Uncle Sam gave
us big donation OF land, the proceeds
OF the sale oil which were to be used for

THE HERALD has before remarked that
there was little probability of Yakima
being made a separate judicial district
but some danger of the district being en-
larged, and now in verifcation OF this

the number OF superior judges, and pro-
vides among other things that Klickitat

charged with attacking the Chinese for
refusing to patrionize his sheet, by q
roundabout statement which was aimed
to make the public believe that he had
not solicited advertising from the Chinese
business men. Freeman will not make
this statement unquallfiedly, for The

say that they were approached by Free
