Walla Walla is considering the oues-
ton of purchasing chemical engine for
use in the city fire department. Dis
tinct advantages are claimed for the
chemical engine over those of the steam
kind. The purchase price is but half as
great, while the cost of operating is
triaing in comparison to the expense of
steam engine. A similar proposition
has been made to the citizens of The
Dalles, which is worth considering. If
it is decided to purchase the chemical
engine, we are in favor of the expense
being borne by those who, it is claimed,
will be benefited by the reduction in in
surance rates, which has been promised
by the insurance companies. If the
figures cited by the advocates of the
plan are correct, the proposition would
be an economical one to the people
whose property is insured. No extra
demands should be made upon the city
treasury till a greater reduction has
been made in the city debt.

WEDNESDAY. FEBRUARY 10, 1896
d LESSON TO BE LEARNED.

Senator Davis speech upon the Mon
roe doctrine comes little late to have
much effect in moulding public opinion
to clear conception OF what this famous
declaration is. Since President Cleve-
lands patriotic message there has been
but little confusion in the minds of the
American people regarding the intents
and purposes of Monroe's famous state
ment. Every school boy in the land
knows that by it notice is given to Euro
pean nations to keep hands off the
American continent, and that should
the warning be disregarded, the force of
the United States lwould be brought to
the enforcement of the declaration. The
speech of the Minnesota senator will,
however, be of service Tin showing the
entire application of the doctrine TO the
present Venezuelan dispute, and that
the exigencies of the situation warrant
the steps which our national govern
ment has taken.
The understanding in this country re-
garding the Monroe doctrine being COM
plete, it is equally SO across the ocean.
England, which at first resented the
American assumption that the United
States had any right to interfere in any
complication to which it was not di-
rect party, has adopted an entire change
of front, and upon all sides, in public
and private speeches, through the press,
and even in the utterances of Lord SalIs-
bury, the head of the English govern.
ment, are heard expressions favorable to
arbitration-a mode of settlement which
at first was deemed inconsistent with
England's dignity. The change of atti-
tude upon the part of Great Britain is
not due to any belief in the justice of
our position, but because any thought
of war with America is impossible,
owing to the grave complications that
exist in Europe. England, without a
friend among the continental nations,
could i'll afford to concentrate her mill
tary and naval attention upon the New
World, leaving to Russia, Germany and
France the prizes of the old.
The United States has escaped luckily
from what might have been a serious
affair. The American people should not
fail to learn lesson that has long been
needed. History has proven over and
over again that peace is best preserved
by perfect military equipment. Other
complications will come up, which may
not be settled as easily as the present
one promises to be. The European
countries fully understand our utterly
defenseless condition, and should the
occasion arise, they would hasten to
take advantage of it. A warning has
been given, for which the country
should be thankful and not delay to ac-
cept. 1t IS foolish for the jingoists to
talk war while opr army and navy are
in their present condition; and yet no
man can tell when war may be neces-
sary. 1t is the patriotic duty of con-
gress to take immediate steps for the
better equipment of our army and navy.
To Western people it is pleasing re.

A PECULIAR REMEDY.
About the New Discovery
for Curing Dyspepsia.
(l1rom Mich. Christian Advocate.)

(From Mich. Christian Advocate.)
The Rev. F. l. Bal, a highly esteemed
minister residing in Wssdsport, Cayuga
Co., n. Y, in a recent letter writes rs
follows; "There has never been any
thing that I have taken that has relieved
the Dyspepsia from which l have suffer-
ed for ten years except the new remedy
called Stusrt's Dyspepsia Table Is. Since
taking them l have had no distress at all
after eating and again after long years
can sleep we'll Rev. F. ]. Bell, Weeds
port, NY, formerly Idalia, Colo"
Ssuarrs' Dyspepsia Tablets is a re-
a certain euro for all forms of indiRes-
ton, but because it seems to act az thor
ougnly in old chronic cases of Dyspap-
ala as we'll as in mild attacks Of indiges-
ton or biliousness A person has dys.
pepsia simply because the stom-
ach overworked, all it wants Is a harm
less vegetable remedy to digest the food
and thus give it the much needed rest.
This is the secret of . the
success of this peculiar rem
edy. No matter how weak or how much
disordered the digestion may be, Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, will digest the food
whether the stomach works or not.
New life and energy is given not only to
the stomach but to every organ in the
body. A trial of this splendid medicine
will convince the most skeptical that
Dyspepsia and all stomach troubles can
be cured. The Tablets are prepared by
the Stuart Chemical Co. of Marshall
Mich, but SO popular has the remedy
become that Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
can now be obtained at any drug store at
80 cents per package.

In BUSINESS CIRCLES.
The Model Store Is Closed, as Sales
Were Small.
RECEIPTS had DROPPED TO s8s.

News IN the Local Business World
Personals and miscellaneous Conn
merciaI Items.
The Model Supply store. which has
been doing retail business for the past
few weeks, has been closed, and the stock
remaining in the store will be sold at pri-
vato sale tomorrow
The reason for the closing up of the
store was that the receipts were becom-
ing so small as to scarcely pay the run
ming expenses. The receipts for yester-
day were but $SS. The mortgages
therefore were not only willing, but
anxious to hwve the business closed out
in some more profitable manner.
The sale is called private one, though
practically the same privileges are to be
allowed as in a public sale. A public
sale however, would require notice of
ten days and as the mortgages and Mr..
Sproat have to vacate the building in
less than ten days, time would not be
given for a legal public notice.
A representative OF Swofford & Co.,
of Kansas City, who are interested in the
stock to the amount of about $500, has
come to the city and threatened if the
affairs were not closed up Immediately
he would institute suit for the appoint
ment of another receiver and this fact
naQ something to DO with the determine
ton to bring about the sale as soon as
possible, as we'll as the fact that under
the present state of affairs the people
were running in debt keeping the store
open.
Itis true that the lease now held by
Sam Sproat extends until September, but
Colonel Holiday, the owner of the build
ing, has given Mr.. Sproat and all others
Interested ten days to vacate the premi-
ses in' order to allow the Valley Falls
people, Kemper and Plaxton, TO move in.
These gentlemen have already signed a
lease and will take possession as soon as
possible.
Kemper and PIaxton have purchased
the Kyle stock, and are also prospective
purchasers of the Model stock at the sale
today.
The proceeds of the sale will go to sat
isfy the claims held by the unpaid mort
gagees, including John R. Mulvane, Mrs.
Sproat, Judge W. R. Hazen, Ed Sproat
and others.
The claim held by W. Fl. Davis has al
ready been paid, and also that of the
Bank of Topeka, as well as part of that
of John r Mulvane, but there is still
balance due MIR. Mulvane of something
like $500.
The grounds for Colonel holiday de-
claring the lease of Mr.. Sproat off are
that he is in arrears for $3.50 back rent.

Mr.. Weightman, representative of the
Capitol City Brick company, says this
will require no enlargement of the force
at the brick works, contrary to expecta-

the walks is decided upon, by the COM
pany going to work Immediately, the
demand can be supplied without a
further enlargement of the forces.
