Official Paper of the City Of Aberdeen
A QUESTION OF RIGHT.

The Bulletins legal editor throws out
the intimation that newspaper opinion on
constitutional questions is not taken for
much in deciding them. Doubtless this
may be true, not necessarily, however,
because the newspaper opinion may not
be correct, as viewed bv these pseudo
lawyers who would uphold the dignity Of
the law, regardless Of right, justice or
common sense. The newspaper looks at
questions from standpoint of right and
justice, and not through the tangled web
of technicalities, precedent, etc., which
usually governs the average lawyer, and
often the judge and court. Probably nine
times out Of ten judges rely upon the
decision Of another in cases which seem
to them to be similar, and often will
twist former decision so that its own
author would not recognize it, in order to
rest his opinion upon it, rather than take
the responsibility Of deciding the question
himself.
Again, the mind Of the man who looks
at questions from a standpoint OF right
and justice, rather than technicality and
precedent, is often in a better condition
to judge fairly than the latter, and that
newspaper opinion does influence Judges,
even, by presenting other phases of a
question, is beyond dispute, the opinion
of the legal editor Of our contemporary to
the contrary notwithstanding.
Take the question of the limit of in
debtedness, which Judge Irwin uses as a
basis for piling presidents; it in turn is
based upon the assessment. And what is
this assessment but the arbitrary creation
OF one man-the assessor? The state has
given the right to incur indebtedness to
certain amount, which is fixed limit.
Shall the assessor say the next year that
before the county shall spend dollar for
necessary expenses it must pay part OF
its indebtedness first, and his word be
law? The state has given the right to a
certain amount Of debt, can the assessor
override the state? Surprising a county
is not up to it's legal limit, orders certain
work done amounting to thousands Of
dollars, can the assessor come in before
the work is completed, with another
assessment, and say the debt for the
work is illegal, and cannot be paid ?
Nonsense, and yet Judge Twins decision
is not far from such an instance. That
the debt may not be increased under q
lower assessment is obvious, but that it
can be decreased, and still a part illegal
is not.
A few years ago the legal limit was two
hundred thousand dollars, the debt has
never reached that amount, and has
actually been decreased with decreasing
assessments, until today it is nearly fifty
thousand dollars below that limit, and
yet the learned judge pronounces part OF
the remainder illegal, even though some
Of it has been incurred by his own orders,
to refuse to obey which would land the
now creditor of the county in Jail. It
may be precedent and law, but it is not
justice, and no court has right to exact
injustice.

The amount of lumber going from Puget
sound to South Africa indicates the open
ing up Of an extensive market in that
direction. Within the next few weeks
5000, 900 feet will be dispatched to Della
goa bay, while within the last two months
Tacoma alone has shipped over 5000, 900
feet to the same destination. This trade
is largely due to the establishment of the
Lingham steamship line, and through
the same medium it is possible that a
business Of considerable importance in
other commodities might be made to
follow.-West Coast Trade.

So long as we borrow money from
England, and hire her to carry our pro-
ducts across the big pond, just so long
must we send her gold or merchandise to
pay the bill. Though we trade her dollar
for dollar of our merchandise for all that
we import, yet must there be hundreds
OF millions of dollars of gold or merchan-
disc sent over to pay these items. The
cry Of the Republican press that the gold
is sent over to pay for imports is lie,
for during the last thirty years we have
exported over two and one-half billion
dollars worth of merchandise more than
the imports, and still we are in debt to
England.

The threat of England has brought
China to terms, and Liu, viceroy Of the
Szechuen district, has been degraded and
forbidden to hold Office. This will not
in anywise affect the investigation being
conducted by the United State, which
has been delayed by the unwillingness OF
China to allow the American commission
to proceed to Chengtu overland instead
Of by steamer up the Yangtse river.
Secretary Olney has insisted, and China
has yielded, and the Chinese will be
treated to demonstration of American
power in the passage OF the commission
with it's armed escort.

Shorter Hours Bring Better Results.
Gas a general proposition" remarked
G. M. Hinkley, the veteran manager Of
the saw mill machinery department OF
the Edward p. Allis Company, Of Mil
waukee, sit does not pay to work crew
OF men more than ten hours a day.
remember very we'll number Of years
ago, when l was saving lumber and
shingles, l experimental quite little
with that idea, and found that in the II
and 12-hour days my men did not do
enough more to pay for the wear and
tear on the machinery. Now here is a
case in point: The West & Slade Mill
Company, Of Aberdeen, WASH, has just
sent us report OF the daily cut Of one Of
our Allis band mills for the month Of
August. IL days of which they ran l211a
hours day, and Is days 10 hours. The
total cut for the 121a-hour days amounts
to 65S,916, or u daily average Of $4,000
feet. The total for the 15-day run was
Sic, 404 feet, or an average for the TO-
hour day Of 81 800 feet. The result, you
see, shows that the mill can stand more
than the men can, the company getting
only $40 feet more a day of 121a hours
than of 10 hours. "-Northwcstern Lum-
