The unexplained absence Of Isaac B. Noxon still
continues to occupy the public mind. 1t Is significant
of the high confidence placed In the banking instiu

long connected, that the statement that the banks
have In no way suffered loss through him has been
received with general belief and there has not been
the slightest indication Of lack OF confidence In
their stability. The methodical habits. public
spirit and simplicity Of manners Of the missing man
are also recalled. 1t was his custom every morning

DECRYING OUR ADVANTAGES.

There Is no better evidence OF the su-
periority Of our state as place offering
inducements for further settlement than
the fact that the points to the far east
ward are already beginning to decry us.
ANY disgruntled individual who can write
finds it easy to get his complainings
printed in an eastern paper. Some one
who signs himself A. Fl. Roberts and
writes from Tacoma, gets dig at Yaki-
ma county with Michigan paper. Why
be should select Yakima for his abuse is
hard to guess, unless it may be that our
county is more widely known for its adj
vantages Of soil and climate than some Of
the others; or why, being resident OF
the City OF Tacoma, he should want to
abuse any part of the state, is still harder
to determine. No Yakima county man
would abuse his city. But the letter is
not worth so much attention as the fact
that so poor a production should be print
ed at all. This shows that people in
Michigan are looking this way for new
homes, where they can better their con-
ditlons, and they have ample means Of
learning the truth about us. All we
have to say as state or county is that
the fullest investigation is courted. Our
immigration organizations are for the
purpose of getting people to come out
and see before they locate in new homes.
and it is trifle discouraging to have to
meet this growing from at home and
abroad. The people who come get along
well enough and write to their old neigh
bors OF their success, which is an offset
to the newspaper grumble. 1t may come
to such pass that the older states will
have to form societies to induce the peo-
pile TO stay at home.

Good judges have handed down to us
the information that one OF the hand
soonest women who ever adorned the
White House was the wife of President

right We are obliged to the Chicago

memory ana recalling the fact that Mrs.
Monroe was also the originator Of Il

ter of White House etiquette, and was to
the effect that it should not be necessary
for the Presidents wife TO return social
calls, the good sense Of which was not
appreciated at first by the wives OF states.
men, but they came in time to see the
entire justice OF the rule, and it has stood
the test of time even up to the present
day. That is the way with those "Mon-
roe doctrines" Whether they relate to
International polity or social fnnc-
tons, they always stand-neither
shrink in the wash nor shrivel in the
sun nor run down at the heel. All those
whom it may concern should note this
interesting and important fact. They
might, indeed, stamp il on the tablets o.
their respective memories.

The Northwest Magazine produces the
portraits of C6 OF the prominent members
of the Northwestern Immigration con-
vention but overlooks Yakima's repre-
sentatives like white chips. Can it be
that this was an intentional slight placed
upon our own Benson and Fechter, or
did these worthy gentlemen modestiy
hide their lights under bushel during
their stay in st. Paul? As the CONNER
cial club only put up $50 for expenses, iper-
hsps they may have concluded that they
couldn't afford to shine very brightly for
such small sum.

NOVELTY AND IMPROVEMENT.
Tea Cigarettes in d-smok-

Paris Figaro; 1t appears, according to
the gossip of high society, that We are
soon to witness the introduction of a
strange fashion, which is now conquer
ing England, and which according to the
tradition of Partisan high life, will soon
be adopted here. We refer to the custom
! OF smoking cigarettes in which tea is
substituted for tobacco. 1t was the high

which they are passionately fond Of and
tea cigarettes are now not only to be had

must say, to the shame of French gallan-
