Seattle, WASH, Aug. 6, 1895.
The weather in both the eastern and
western sections OF Washington during
the past week has been warm and with
out rain. This is the beginning Of the
fifth week of o drouth which has re-
manned practically unbroken since July
9Th, the only exception being light
showers on July 2sth, and few scatter
ing traces of rain. The weather has
been favorable for harvesting, which has
continued throughout the week. As
more grain is harvested and threshed it
is seen that the yield is better in quantity
and quality than was recently expected.
Oats and fall wheat have Jared the best,
while barley and spring sown wheat have
suffered the most, the reason for oats not
feeling the drouth being that the bulk Of
the crop is raised on low. moist land.
The irrigated sections have grown an
abundant crop Of grain this season.

An important suit has been brought by
D. H. Mullen to compel the county audi.
tor to issue warrants on the general fund
in payment Of bills which have been al.
lowed by the commissioners, as we'll as
jurors and witnesses fees allowed by the
court. Should the suit be successful, as,
following the precedent set by the What.
com county court, it is likely to be, the
kickers against the funding bonds, who
have unnerved the weak. backed commits
sioners, will have the satisfaction Of
knowing that the total amount will be
much larger than it would if the bonds
had been issued and the county placed
on a cash basis.

GROWTH OF THE CHURCHES.

From the volumn of the 1890 census
containing the statistics of churches in the
United States, the New York Sun gathers
some interesting information. II finds
returns OF 143 distinct denominations,
with total of 2O,6l2, 8O6 communicates
or members. "Great as are the number
and variety OF denominations" says the
Sun, "all except about per cent of the
total Of members belonged in 1890 to 26
denominations only. In five of the de-
nominational families alone were over
1900, 900 communicates out Of the whole
10000, 600 and over" They are thus
enumerated:
Catholic. .6.257 81 Presbyterian y .27s, sS2
h ssat;.t .a asss - Lutheran l2S''s
The Catholic denomination appears to
lead all others, but when it is considered
that in that denomination all children OF
communicates are also counted as such,
it is seen that they do not, for upon that
basis the Methodists have fully 0,0OO, 900
commandments, and the Baptists over
5000, 900, and counting all Of the protest.
ant denominations ON the same basis it
will be seen that at least 40, 1000, 900 Of the
people of this country can properly be
classed as attendants besides the millions
of others who habitually attend church
more or less. According to population
the number Of religious communicates
was greater in the cities than in the
country. This apparent difference may
perhaps be accounted for by the method
of enumeration employed by the Catho-
lies, that denomination predominating in
the largest cities, their proportion in Chi

DEMOCRATS, TAKE COURAGE.

Judge Yeomans, Of the interstate com.
MERGE commission, was in Portland last
week. Judge Yeomans is a life long
Democrat, and for quarter Of century
was prominent in Iowa politics. He is
therefore in a position to form correct
opinions. In an interview in the Oregon.
ian he says that he is decidedly of the
opinion that the silver question will not
enter largely into the campaign next year,
that both parties will have the same
plank on that subject, but that the issue
will be the tariff question.
Asked in regard to the general impress.
ion in the east that the Republicans will
elect the next president, he said: "That
has been the impression, but is hardly 80
now. Times are improving all over the
country. With good times will come re.
newed confidence in the Democratic par.
ty. firmly believe that another year
will work great change in the sentiment
Of the people, and that the presidential
election will be in great doubt after the
nominations are made"
In this respect Judge Yeoman's views
are in line with those Of thinking men oil
both parties. A prominent Republican
from neighboring state so expressing
himself 10 the writer recently. The BOOM
ing blast furnaces, opening tanneries and
increasing prices of all staples has put a
quietus upon the Republican cry as we'll
as upon the free silver agitator. As a good
Democrat said the other day, the party
now holds the cards and does not need to
show it's hand. The slump in Democratic
stock came at favorable time in the ad'
ministration, and with the silver agita'
ton threatening the party falling fiat, all
Democrats can buckle up their armor and
get ready for business next spring.

in with whoop, and about the only good
measure which escaped humiliation at
the hands Of the legislature was the one
providing that county commissioners may
fund outstanding warrants up to certain
limits, and thus put counties upon cash
basis, and therefore enable them to buy
supplies cheaper.
Have our commissioners taken advant-
age of this opportunity to benefit the
people? No. Why? No sand, most
people say. At least one of them had the
sand to apply to the court for additional
compensation, and got it too. Doubtless
he was entitled to it, or the court would
not have allowed it, and il they have the

Intelligent observers have testified to
facts which appear to show that in GER
tain circumstances the snake, scorpion
and even some quadrupeds commit sui
cide. NJ. Henry, clock manufacturer Of
Longuyon, France, has recently described
an experiment Of the kind which he
made with a wasp. The wasp was i'm
prisoned under q glass. and knowing
that benzine asphyxiates insects he put
some paper soaked in it beside the cap

then angrily attacked the paper. but find

lay down ON its back. and folding up its
abdomen planted its sting thrice into it's

ment ON three wasps with the like re.
