THE Signal seems to be very much
exercised over the position the
NORTHWEST has taken, as to the pay
ment for serving ditch notices.
Our touchy contemporary may
squirm and distort as it may, the
fact remains that the party serving
such notices is entitled to pay there
fore, not from the county, but from
those benefited by the improvement.
The Signal would lead its readers
to believe that this expense has been
born by the county heretofore, which
is not so. The item of serving notices
has always been included in the cost
bill and charged to those benefited
pro rata. This is right and just. 1t
is part of the labor of the ditch, and
being such must be paid for.

simply Wonderful.

II is simply wonderful and instruc-
tive to the last degree how every
thing that the tariff reformers and
free-traders predicted to come in the
wake of the Mckinley tariff came
about and how utterly untrue the
predictions OF the protectionists
have proved already. Every indus
try that they said would languish
and perish under the new tariff is
fiourishing; wages which they said
would have to be reduced, are volun-
tarily increased in practically all
branches of manufacture, and pros
perity, which they said had fled at
the vey sight of the industry de-
stroyer," now walks arm in arm with
him through the length and breadth
OF the land.

THE horse millennium appears to
have arrived. In the extreme West
the horse is not worth so much as a
sheep dog. The Stevenson WASH
Pioneer, June 10, says: Skamania
county people who visit The Dalles
these days usually bring home a horse
with them. Good work horses are
selling up there at from 80 to $5 a
head.n The bike and the electric
car have very effectually cheapened
horse power and horse use. The no.

The Supreme Court of Ohio last
week put an important construction
upon the part of the Dow liquor law
that prescribes how the poor funds
arising under it shall be distributed.
The decision is that the counties not
containing city of the first class,
the poor funds shall be paid into the
county treasury and paid out in relief
of the poor upon the township trus-
tees orders and not placed at once in
the hands of the township trustees.

H., has been the talk of the politicians.
in point of attendance bat it was clearly
developed that the whole thing was Re-
publican trick to deceive the Democracy.
The speakers all censure Cleveland, Carlisle,
Brice and the other Democratic leaders and
h but littleto say about the Republican
party. The Ohio Democrats undoubtedly
favor gold and silver and increase in the
per capita of circulation. They know that
the business of the world could not be con-
Quoted without silver and no Democrat pro-
poses for a moment to destroy it as a
medium of exchange. Ia short time it is
understood Senator Brice will make state
ment of his position on the silver question
which will undoubtedly satisfy everybody
to be seen that the present silver crusade is
clearly Republican scheme to
DIVIDE THE DEMOCRATS
and permit the election of Republican for
president in 1896. They started the move
ment in the South to break down that gre at
fortress of Democracy. The Memphis con-
vention and the Democratic convention
Kentucky turned ba,k the tide that threat
ened TO sweep the southern states frt m
their ancient Democratic moorings. The
Missouri Democrats and likewise those in
in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan
and Indiana declined to fall in
to the trap laid for them,
pr5ferriDg to bring up and solve this quet
ton next year when Congress and Presi-
dent aill be elected with power to settle it.
TIE elections this fall will have no bearing
on the question whatever and if the Repub-
lican party organs will show as much con
Germ for their own party action as they are
doing forthe Democrats they will have all
they can do. When wolf puts on the skin
of lamb it should be made to fit and leave
no exposure Of the real animal within. The
Republican schemers are going about in
silver skin breaking into the Democratic
fold and preparing to devour their victims
at leisure. Last year tie country was full
of Republican Populists but the elections

to their party before balloting began fer
the result showed the Democrats holding
the bag. In lS7s-79 the Republicans worked
the greenback racket and switched off
enough Democracs to give them the state
for two years in succession. This year they
expect repetition through the silver issue
which has been postponed until next year in
dozen states north by the Democracy.

of BAT mills and factories in which the

Up to the present time this has been a
bad year for the Republican party. A year
or two ago when shops were closing and
soup houses filed the land under the Nc
Kinley law, Republican majorities went up
like mercury in the tube. The Democratic
party was at OIL CO advertised as desd. But
within year marvellous change has been
wrought. A million more men are working
to-day than we're when the M Kinley law
was pronounced dead. A half million 9th

bringing higher figures than they have in
years. The orchards every where are bend

La Fiesta de Los Angeles.

On April 18th to Goth inclusive car
nival entitled "La fiesta de Los Angeles"
will be held at Los Angeles, Calf.
It is under the management of the
Merchants Association, an influential
organization of business men who have
large resources and it is expected that
the carnival will excel the Mardi Gras or
any similar fete ever attempted in Ameri
ca.
The fiesta of 1894 was pronounced
success from every standpoint and the
plans for the 1895 event promise the
most unique fete of modern times. As
you doubtless understand, there are
peculiar conditions which make oelebra-
tion of this character more enjoyable
there than elsewhere, among which may
be mentioned the mild climate, an abund-
apce of fruits and flowers, and the his
toric and romantic associations of Cali
fornia, from which latter are drawn ma
terials for many artistic and unique feat
ures of "La fiesta de Los Angeles" The
Spanish and Chinese population part
icipate in the parades and there are many
other features of An instructive and re-
fining nature. Low rates of fare in effect
via Santa Fe route. For particulars call
