MISCELLANEOUS.
Harper's Magazine
IN 1898.

The Simpleton, a new novel by Thomas Har-
dy, will be begun in the Dec. Number, 1894
and continue to November, 1895. Whoever
may be ones favorite among English noyelists,
it will be conceded by all critics that Thomas
Hardy stands foremost as master artist in
fiction, and The Simpletons may be expected
to arouse enthusiasm not inferior in degree to
that which has marked Trilby-the most sue
cessful story of the year. Another leading
feature will he the Personal Recollections of
Joan of Arc, by the Sieur Louis de Conte, Her
Page and Secretary, under which guise the
most popular of living American magazine
writers will present the story of the laid of
Orleans In the January Number will appear
a profusely illustrated paper on Charleston
and the Carolinas, the first of series OF South
ern Papers.
Northern Africa is attracting more attention
than at any other time since it was the seat of
empires. The next volume of Hdrper"s Mag
dziie will contain four illustrated articles on
this region, and three of them will depict the
present life there. Julian Ralph will prepare
for the Magazine series of eight stories, de-
plotting typical phases of Chinese Life and Man.
ners Besides the long stories, there will begin
in the January Number the first chapters of A
Three-Part Novelette,, by Richard Harding
Davs-the longest work yet attempted by this
writer. Complete short stories by popular wri-
tiers will continue to be a feature of the Maya

The cause OF nearly all bad government
and poor legislation Is 20 be found in the
apathy of the non-voting citizen Selfish
interests vote early and marshal all their
friends at the polls. but public interest
stays at home and grsmbies at the in
efficiency OF the officers. the errors OF the
law and the burden of the taxes. IL the
question were squarely put to citizen.
Are you In favor OF high taxes or low
taxesy' he might stir himself TO vote,
and for that reason we may hope TO ses
a good vote polled today in favor OF sub
stitutlng a low rate Of interest for high
rate OF interest.
The question submitted today is. In eff
feet. shall rhe school district continue
TO pay per cent interest on warrants or
shall II pay only 5 per cent on bonds
II the warrants are not funded. not only
will the higher rate of interest have 10
be paid, but next year and for two or
three years beyond that the tax levy will
have TO be increased in order 10 call in
the outstanding warrants.
The POst-Intelligencer has already at
length explained the object of the cleo
ton and IL IL fails 10 further urge the
taxpayer to vote In favor OF the bonds
&c is because 1t assumes that, placed in
possession of the facts, the intelligent
voter need no further tutor than his own
good Judgment. We have no fear of a
majority OF the citizens of Seattle disap-
proving the proposition to fund; but We
warn that majority that 1t is essential
they do not leave the minority in con-
troll by themselves neglecting to vote.
The proud motto of popular sovereignty
is that every vote counts" Your one
vote is the vote that prevails.

While some OF the farmers Of Eastern
Washington are talking OF growing sugar
beets. the beet sugar countries OF Europe
are looking for another crop In which
there is larger profit. They even talk OF
an international conference TO consider
limiting the area planted Id beets. Eu-
rope and other countries send us sugar
at price that leaves scarcely any profit
for the grower. But there is crop for
which the Eastern Washington farmer
can find a market. Last fall train loads
OF potatoes were shipped from this state
to st. Louis. and the shippers got good
price.
The April report of the statisticIan Of
the agricultural department states that
during the ten-year period ending June
90 iS4. there were imported into this
country p l95. III bushels of potatoes. with
an aggregate value of si3. 1856. 43I, or an
average OF 446 cents per bushel. The net
excess OF imports over exports for the
same period was 2i.347. io5 bushels, with a
value of s., 2,6 3i5. In 1888 this country
raised the largest crop but one during the
period above mentioned. the crop being
30. S65 600 bushels. In the same year We
imported s.225 90 bushels OF potatoes.
That we should go abroad TO buy pota-
toes or any other farm products Is a mat
ter OF surprise TO the agricultural depart
ment. but statistics that cannot be denied
show that during the ten years just passed
almost ten millions of our gold has gone
abroad to pay for this tuber. which forms
such great percentage Of the aggregate
OF our farm products. Among the coun-
tries 10 which we export potatoes. Cuba

with Mexico. Central America, the United
States OF Colombia. Venezuela. the IIa-
waiian islands and Hongkong are also
among our larger customers for this pro-
duct. The principal countries from which
We obtain our imports OF the same vege-
table are the United Kingdom. particu-
larly Scotland and the British North
American provinces. Germany. Belgium
and the Netherlands sometimes contrib
utIug considerable quantities. while Ber-
muda and some Of the islands OF the West
Indies supply us with a part Of our early
potatoes.

LEWIS COUNTY LANDS.

Window. Lewis County. April =. ISIS.
To the Editor. Since writing letter 20
your paper some time ago have received
great many letters iRcuiring about land
IN this part of our state ! thought the
best way for me would be TO answer
them through your paper. In my letter
stated that there was q great deal OF
unoceupfed land in this nesghAornooi.
This may be somewhat misleading. as
nearly all the land is either claimed or
railroad land or school land. / KNOW OF
about Loo acres unclaimed, and many
claims are liable 20 be contested or could
be bought cheap. TIE railroad land Is
generally unoccupied-nost OF II bought
