No Star Chamber Methods.

Governor Rogers and the reform ad-
ministration of this state have found
that what he first made light of as a
political boomerang for the republi-
cans is serious infraction of the laws
OF the state, committed by those for
whom he is responsible. It has been
alleged that the governor was aware of
the Irregularities prevailing in the
conduct OF the affairs of the Pullman
college, but did not have the nerve to
order an investigation and to remove
from the board of regents the parties
responsible for the deficiency.
The real truth of the matter is that
deficiency exists that it was Great
ed by men appointed or kept in posi-
ton by Governor Rogers. No matter
who made the appointments, or with
what political party the regents affil-
lated, the fact that a deficiency had
been created, that the law had been
violated, is sufficient cause for action
by the governor of the state, to pun
ish the recreant officials, and to put
stop to further abuses.
1t seems that Governor Rogers has
at last been compelled by the expose
in the Ledger to take notice of the
situation, and with Travelling Auditor
Lister has put in an appearance at
Pullman and had conference with
two members of the board OF regents,
behind closed doors. Such action
may be strictly in the line of "reform"
methods, but it is not a business-like
way. The people of the state, as they
have right to, demand that the af-
fairs of the agricultural college be full
ly and openly Investigated; that the
charges,of mismanagement, extrava-
gance and incompetency be thorough
ly and publicly probed; that prompt
punishment be meted out to the gull
ty ones and equally prompt measures
be taken to prevent repetition of the
offense. This can not be done by the
governor holding secret conferences
with the defendants.-Ledger.

DOctoring History.

The attempt on the part of some O
the Grand Army and others to prepare
school history which, so far as il
touches on the rebellion and the caus-
es thereof, shall be acceptable to al
sections of the country, or even to all
parties In any one section. is some
thing which might just as well be
abandoned. 1t ought never to have
been undertaken. OF what value to
any one Is history whose recitals oil
events have been "doctored," not to
make them conform more nearly to
the truth, but to avoid rasping some
body's sectional or political sensibili-
ties? Let the the truth concerning
the Rebellion come out in all it's re-
pulslveness as to its cause. in all its
garments of tragedy as it was being
fought to finish, in all the glory of
It's ending. Let it be known that the
South rebelled to save negro slavery
and Southern aristocracy. Let it be
taught in our schools that the loyal
valor of the North saved the republic.
destroyed slavery, opened the path of
opportunity for free white labor all
over the regenerated South. Let the
Southron be credited with all the sim
certify he felt, all the valor he display
ed in bad cause; but let there be no
glozing over of the fact that his cause
was bad one; that his rebellion was
without excuse; that he deserved to
be whipped, and that he got what he
deserved. That's the kind of history
to make loyal citizens of schoolboys
and patriotic mothers of our girls.
The weak, namby-pamby sentiment
that would emasculate the story of
the events which tested the timbers of
our republic and ensured its perpetu-
lty, to save the sensibilities of traitors
and the descendants of traitors, is
something sickening and despicable.
1t is akin to that which weaves gar
lands for felons and murders of flowers
which should deck only the brow Of
Virtue and of Heroism. That the
South prints lying histories" is no
reason why the North should attempt
to prepare one with the truth sup
pressed to take the place of the South
ern trash. The truth will make it's
way over the South in time, despite
all prejudices-just as the Northern
army did. And the truth is the best
medicine for whatever is left of South
ern dlsloyalty.-St. Paul Press.

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four
hours; a sediment indicates an un-
healthy condition of the kidneys.
when urine stains linen it is evidence
of kidney troubles. Too frequent de-
sire to urinate or pain in the back, is
also convincing proof that the kidneys
and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge
so often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp root, the great kidney remedy
fulfils every wish in relieving pain in
the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and
every part of the urinary passages. It
corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it. or bad eff
fects following the use of liquor, wine
or beer, and overcomes that unpleas-
necessity of being compelled to get up
many times during the night to uri-
nat. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp Root is soon realized.
It stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases.

DO People Have True Conception Of
Their Looks.

1t has been said by one who ought
to know that no man has any clear
conception of how he himself looks.
The expression of the face is continu-
ally changing. No artist, no camera,
can catch this changing, feeting,
evanescent expression. When You
look in the glass, the very intent TO
find out how you look is depicted on
your face. The more you strive, the
more the intent is intensified, and
such an expression is not natural to
your face. How often do we look at a
photograph and find only disappoint-
ment in it? Why is this? The camera
depicts the sitter just as he is at the
moment the picture is taken, but very
seldom can the instrument catch and
record that subtle thing called "natur-
al expression" because few persons
are natural when seated before the
camera. Well, what of all thisf
Simply this. II you are noble, loving
and true, such virtues will light up
your face; if you are sordid, mean and
selfish, your face proclaims it to the
world. Anything in your life that is
active for either good or evil will inn
press itself upon your personal appear
ance. Pride, scorn, hate and lust
write themselves indelibly in the phys
iognomy. When such ignoble quail.
ties rule the life and have become
habitual, they are impressed on the
face and finally become habitual to
the cOuntenance, and the features
themselves become permanently
changed to accord with such express
sions. 1t has often been remarked
that persons who have been married
for long term Of years come to look
something alike, nor is this surprising
when we call to mind that their life
and environment is one, made up of
the same joys and sorrows, the same
hardships and trials, and the same
successes and pleasures-ln short, the
intellectual and spiritual atmosphere
of both is to considerable extent
Identical, and we know that these
things affect the physiognomy often
to sucn a degree as to mould the phys
ical features of the face into the same
shape.-Journal of Medicine and
Science.

Rich Find In OlympicS.

Ever since the the mineral wealth
of Washington began to be understood
mining men have been looking for a
strike in the Olympics. II the story
which VISA told a Ledger reporter yes
terday has any foundation in fact, and
indications point to its truth, those
predictions are now in fair way to be
verified.
Walter F. Horner, of Brinnon, Je #
erson county, is the gentleman who
brings ih the news of rich discovery
at the head of the Docewallips Mr..
Horner was in the city yesterday and
stated that Charles Brinnon and
Charles Gilbert had found ore which
assays $612.50 to the ton, by far the
biggest strike evor authent ticated in
the Olympic mountains. The vein is
near the divide at the head Of the Ha-
cewallips river. The two men were
out 16 days and will return to their
find in short time to begin develop
ment. Other rock was found, appar-
emily rich, which has not been as
sayed.
Charles Brinnon has also located
very rich vein of gray copper six miles
from tidewater, where he has already
a shaft down Is feet.
Dinesmor5 and Toby have claim
fourteen miles from tidewater, the av-
erage assays running SIS. A. Simons,
three-fourths of mile from the beach
Is down 10 feet with ore which assays
$40. All of these properties are free
milling.
A wagon road is now being con-
structed from Brinnon to Duckabush,
disance of about six miles, two miles
being already completed. The road
will give easy access to the mines and
the people of that section are anxious
to have it completed. The construct
ion of the balance is not difficult and
the whole undertaking will be COM
pleted soon.-Ledger.

LTON. COUNTY, WASHINGTON FRIDAY SEPTEMBER y 1897
The American Party.

On the Goth of last month new
political party was born, at st. Louis
Mo-, and christened the american
party" The title is not very signif-
cant. Almost anyone would know i,
to be ar American party, from the
fact that it was born on American soil,
What there is about it that is more
dlstlnctlvely American than there is
about any OF the other political parties
with which this country is blessed, is
not revealed in its platform. It enun-
ciates the doctrine that the most
potent safeguard of prosperity is plenty
OF revenue, and it therefore advocates
such an adjustment OF The tariff and
internal revenue laws as will provide
sufficient masaey to keep she govern
ment afoat.
Nobody will controvert this point.
Glve man or government plenty of
revenue and he or it is likely to be
pretty comfortable. But as to the re-
adjustment of the revenue laws-that
Is another thing. They have just been
re-adIusted, and we think most people
will be satisfied to let them alone for a
while, till will see how they work.
On the financial question the new
party favors the demonetization Of
both gold and silver, and the prohibi-
ton OF contracts payable in either of
those metals. 1t favors the substitu
ton of metal tokens for all the miner
coins, and demands the issuance of all
paper currency by the government.
In other words, banks of issue to the
rear.
In the first of these financial plati-
tudes the craft seems to list toward
Bryan democracy, while in some OF
them she has decidedly a populistic
list. AS whole, there doesn't seem
to be anything very captivating or
startling in the financial policy of this
newborn babe-nothing that is likely
to harmonic existing differences of
opinion.
But, upon the whole, this birth is
likely to prove fortunate one, as it
will probably furnish a refuge for lot
of mugwumps who have never been
able to find a permanent home within
the pale of any political organization
heretofore existing. They will not
abide with it very long, but it will be
comfort to the other political organi-
cations to get rid of them for while.
1t will be like getting over fit of a
mild wind colo, so to speak.
While we can't see any great de-
mand for it, we welcome the newborn
political babe to the great family of
political organizations, and bid it God
spend on it's mission, if it has any mis-
sion that is worthy of respect.-Re-

He was clerk in dry goods store, and
her beauty and grace simply turned his head.
1t was in a Chicago dry goods store, which
is in it's way unique, and the Chicago dry
goods clerk is a creation indigenous to the
plant he serves. The "booful" lady was
young, albeit she is matron, and as she
stood entranced before remnants of lace and
tried their different effects by spreading
the mesh over her li]ywhite hand, he, poor
fellow, was entranced too.
Isn't it beautiful" she asked, enthusi-
astically, as she laid another specimen over

"No," answered the poor fellow, rushing:

clerk is transferred to department where

Ready to Compromise.

4 tale of a tiger he had shot which
measured "a feet from snout to tall
tip. Everyone was astonished, but no
one ventured to insinuate a doubt OF
the truth of the story. Presently n
Scotchman told his tale. He had once
caught a fish which he was unable to
pull in alone, managing only to land it
at last with the aid of six friends. 1T
was skate, and it covered two acres =

which the offended Englishman left the

turning he said to the Scotchman:
