ELECTRIC LIGHTS WENT OUT.
Accident at the Suburban Plant
DPrkened Many Building.

The patrons of the Suburban Electric
Light company were in darkness or
had to use gas for about twenty min
utcs last evening. About $50 o'clock
the water heater in the company s
plant on Washington avenue refused to
do it's work and q few moments later
the steam gave out. Until the fires
beneath the boilers made new steam
the generating machinery was idle.
The mishap put the Lyceum theater
and Academy of Music in darkness
and it was sometime before the gas
could be turned on i'm the former place
OF amusement. At so early an hour
many office buildings and large retail
stores were occupied by hundreds OF
tenants or shoppers and no little in
convenience was suffered.

give the farmer and the laboring man the
same protection the millionaircs have,
and there'll be no talk or fear of either
bread riots or revolution. But the pres

hunger are the forcrunners of dcspcra-

the populace, and who will be response
BILE if an outbreak occurs?
Our twelve-year old. in searching for
Sunday reading, picked up copy of
that paper from the chest town on the
harbor." He dopped it in disgust, when
the first article his eyes fell on was an
advertisement of one of Aberdeens
whiskey mills. The term "mill" is used
advisedly; when we estimate the amount
OF "tarantula juice" dispensed from and
the amount Of whiskey received into the
saloons, the plain deduction is, there
must be ",nills" attached to some, if not
all, OF them. While on this theme, The
Temperance Waterman says that three
quarters Of the liquor sold over the bar
is manufactured by the proprietors or
bar-tenders from sixty per cent proof
spirits; each half pint OF this spirits con-
tains enough poison to kill man, and
the residue will make three ordinary
men drunk. Therefore, every half. pint
flask OF tanglefoot represents one suicide
and three fools.

The loggers here turned their logs in
the river during the recent high water
but did not follow them down, as the
water fell too fast.
Miss Agnes Ward closed four months
term of school last Friday in the Connie
school district, and returned to her home
IN Seattle on Saturday.
No one is putting logs in the river here
at present. Last year, at this time, there
were three small camps running on the
creek most of the time, but unless there
is change for the better in the sale of
logs, there will probably not be a log
hauled during the coming summer. This
is Mckinley prosperity sure enough.

water or thrown into hot water and used

quantity of OK gall and the amount of rub

Magnate's Race to See
His Dying Son.

DENVER, Feb. 16.--The special train
from Chicago over the Chicago, Burling-
ton x Quincy and Burlington & Missouri
River railroads, chartered by Henry
Mayham, Denver mining investment
broker, reached this city at 3 :53 a. M,
today, having run ,O26 miles in eighteen
hours and tifty-three minutes. This
journey goes into history as the greatest
railway feat ever accomplished. The
best previous railroad long-distance
record was nineteen hours and fifty
seven minutes for 9G4 miles over the
New York Central and Lake Shore from
New York to Chicago.
Mr.. Mayham, who left New York Sun
day on the Pennsylvania Limited, char
tered special train in Chicago in order
to reach the bedside OF his dying son,
William B. Mayham, as quickly as pos"
sible. The Burlington officials guaranteed
to take him to Denver in twenty-four
hours. They made good their guarantee
and had five hours and three minutes to
spare.
The actual running time, including
stops, was is hours and So minutes; an
average speed Of 54la miles an hour.
The actual running time, excluding stops,
was II hours and 40 minutes; an average
speed of 573a miles an hour. But in spite
of the Burlington's splendid record, Mr..
Mayham arrived in Denver too late to
see his son alive.
Speaking OF this record breaking run,
General Manager Brown, OF the c., 3. &
q. r. r., said today: cit is not exactly
correct TO Suppose that the Burlington
company may not achieve still better re-
suits under more favorable circumstances.
The facts are that the company had only
thirty minutes notice from Mr.. Mayham
and the train started out OF Chicago in a
binding snow storm.

FROM GRAND FORKS,

1t still remains cold, but nevertheless
trees are putting forth leaves.
Pruning fruit trees is the general occu-
patton Of our farmers this month.
Nelson's team has made several trips
to the steamboat landing lately for sup
plies.
Sven Johnson has been helping Mr..

OF bottom land.
w. B. Wilson has the first one OF his
"fire escapes" completed; it is perfect in
every detail, and works full as well as
promised.
A serious accident occurred in Muir
rays camp, in which Mr.. Dodiidge had
his leg terribly crushed. He was ten
derby cared for, and taken to Aberdeen
for treatment.
We are informed that G. Hamilton is
not as we'll as usual. He has been a
great sufferer for many months and has
spent much money for medicine; he has
in some cases been relieved, but nothing
permanent as far as cure is concerned.
Chicago has had a miniature bread
riot, and the only thing that prevented
it from becoming general was the good
sense OF the storc-keeper whose ware
house was raided; and now Chicago
calls for subscriptions to the end that
free soup houses may be run. How long
will the American workmen be able to
keep their temper and hold their peace
Every fibre in the American artisans
makeup is opposed to beggary and
pauperism. They do not ask charity; it
is work they want; charty-soup will
never suffice to satisfy their wants
They have been trodden on, oppressed
and lied to until forbearance has ceased
to be virtue, and now comes the finish
ing touch; after all the other abuses
they are insulted with an offer OF CHARITY

it any wonder that all patience is ex

G. f. Calhoun is still away on Il pro-
tracted business trip to Tacoma.
j. S. Coxey's new sloop fails to stand
the sea, and has sunk for the second
time in the harbor channel
A prominent engineer from Tacoma
has been closeted with Col. Laidlaw dur
ing the past week. There is great danger
to Ocosta that this means that the N. =.
r. r. Co. intends to secure the rightof-
way to the beach this year.
One million dollars expenditure by the
government on this end of the harbor
within the next few years is making
many people feel hopeful. Every cent of
this money ought to have been captured
by the harbor cities, as labor in some
form must receive all the money.
Cleveland & Beaulieu now have the
postoflce. These gentlemen, like divers
Aberdeen business men, laid little stress
until recently upon the fact that about Il
month ago the check forger passed
through Ocosta and left them about
twenty-six dollars poorer. 1t is glaring
fact that in connection with this incident
something should be done at Olympia
this winter about fees now collected on
protested checks. Every one o. the
victims OF foreer Sanders had to pay
protest fees of three dollars. Where
would man-preying upon man end did
the law only permit! The poor man has
all OF these exactions to pay, as no mid
die man sustains business unless profits
on sales to the broad range OF consumers
largely the poorer classes, pay expenses.
