Thompson, with the Misses Key, Mr.. j. H.
MCGOWAN, Mr.. R. W. Thompson, Mr.. and
Mrs. P. V. De Graw, and other well-known
people of Washington are summering amid
the balsam odors and sea breezes of this
perfect climate. Mr.. Thompson has carried
the fishing record beyond all previous re-
turns, making catch Friday, July %, on
the sailboat Effie, of 225 cod and paddock.
They weighed 600 pounds, and were caught
between the hours of 9 am. and pm. 1t
is such record as even the native fisher
men find it difficult to equal. and will prob
ably be the maximum for the season.
There is no climate for regeneration quite
equal to what is offered by the coast of
Maine.

Ice Famine Threatened IMPROVE.
ments to p street BridSe

4.
A limited ice famine exists in George
town, and the chunks of hardened water
regarded by many essential for com
fort in warm weather, cannot be obtained
as easily as the dealers desire. The Great
Falls Ice Company has only limited sup
ply ON hand, and this it is holding back, in
the effort to make it last as long as pos
s;ble. The Georgetown branch, where it
received tons of ice every day, is now re-
ceiving only as many pounds and orders
are given to sell only to the regular pa
irons How long the famine will last is
hard to state. There are no boats at the
wharf unloading, and tits not known when
any vessels will come. ssFor the time be-
ing the company will nave to go through
on limited sales, there being no other
means at hand to meet2the emergency.
The improvements, on the P street bridge
are now practically completed. The iron
work in widening the roadway of the bridge
so as to make it evens&ith the width of
the street vas finished some days ago.
and the new flooring is almost ready for
traffic. The flooring Of the footwalk is
also in place, while the approaches to the
bridge are being given the finishing touches
The Commissioners have ordered that four
gas lamps be erected on the approaches
which are expected to furnish plenty of
illumination. The contract with James c.
Mcguire for widening the street has been
extended until August 10, the cost of in
specton to be charged against the con.
tractor. O

In another column we print letter
from the pen of Rev. Geo. H. Newman.
OF course the News feels gratifed to
receive such words of praise from so
able man as Mr.. Newman. 1t is
perhaps expecting too much to hope
that the News will always be on the
right side of every question, because
human judgment is liable to err, but
the News will always endeavor to be
on the side of right and if it fails to do
SO it will be because of inability to
understand what is right, and not
because it is paid to be on the wrong
side.

A Poser for the Professor.

Last Friday evening, after his lect-
ure, Professor Knox called upon the
audience for two couples of young
people, to which E. R. Doughty and
Miss Ethel Kaufman, Laban thinner
and Miss Edna Barronett responded.
The Professor then announced that he
would tell whether or not they were
adapted to each other for marriage
The examination of their heads was
to the effect that neither couple were
"adapted."
Two married couple were then
called for, w. G. Morley and Mrs
Prouty, Clark Long and Mrs. Kauff-
man going forward. The first couple
were said to be perfectly adapted
and the second fairly so. The PROBES
sor then said, "do you wish to ask any
questions ?" The two ladies and Mr.
Long shook their heads. He ther
said to Mr.. Morley, "Have you ques'
ton ?" With every appearance O.
earnestness to the professor, but with
wink at the crowd, Morley said
professor, don't you think this lady &
little old for me ?" For the next ter
seconds the professor tried to thing o
something to say, while the audience

1t is possible that the findings of
the supreme court relating to sales
of property under execution, deficiency
judgments, etc, are, as it is claimed
by some, illogical, but we must re-
member this--or we may be made to
remember-that the supreme court of
this state is the supreme court of the
state, and if it is possible that the
court can be influenced by the politi-
cal bias of its members, or that their
personal likes or dislikes have any
thing whatever to do with their inter-
probation of law, then there is double
reason for not antagonizing the court
If this be true, the county or the in
dividual who may perchance have a
matter to be tried before the bar of
that court, can not be to careful about
the language they employ in publicly
expressing themselves regarding the
actions of the said court.
Adams County news. [volume] (Ritzville, Wash.) 1898-1906, 1898-03-02

1t sometimes happens that people
read an article in their home paper
which makes them angry and they
often strain themselves into thinking
that the editor had them in mind
when he wrote said article. The
theory is wrong ninety-nine times out
of hundred. The editor of news
paper, like the public speaker, talks
to the public generally He has not
the time or means for finding out
what every individual opinion OF his
readers is, but if he is honest he simply
tells the truth according to the best Of
his ability, let the chips fly where
they may.

LETTER FROn REV. q. H. NEWMAN.
Ritzville, Feb. Is, 1898.


Editor News:-To read your bold
and truthful words concerning the
saloon and the short-sighted policy
serving persons, who are SO ready to
lend their influence and names in
order to bring the evils and expense of
the saloon upon us, is indeed refresh
ing. We do not often see such truth
full words concerning this traffic in our
newspapers, perhaps because one
function of the papers is to reveal the
sentiment of the community; but the
community has no more dangerous
citizen than the one who favors the
saloon, whether we look at the matter
from the moral or from the financial
point of view. Few are the commune
ties that are not selling the lives and
the happiness of some of its citizens
including women and innocent chill
dren-for far less than the price of
slave in days gone by. Christian
people, because of sectarianism, weaken
the moral and religious forces of the
community by dividing themselves in
to needless church organizations which
must be kept in chronic invalidism,
and then another class of citizens null
tiplies the demoralizing forces, and
the community enters upon a con-
dition OF moral atrophy, which for
lack of public sentiment and moral
stamina on the part of influential citi-
zens is not easily checked. When we
are forced to see drunken man, or to
feel the expense Of drunkenness, or
are shocked by some terrible crime, we
try to lay all the blame on the saloon
keeper. In reality the whole COM
munity is partner with the saloon
keeper; and morally every person who
approves of the business is responsible
for drunkenness, the expense and the
crime caused.
There are in every community per-
sons who, constitutionally, or because
OF habits long INDUCED, are utterly
incapable of resisting the temptations
the stronger ones put in their way,
and that we are to busy with bust
ness, with politics, or with religion
will not satisfy Him who is the judge
of all the earth, and has inte.l ded to
guard the weak by those that are
strong. Business interests and policy
considerations should be beneath an
American in the exercise of his duties
as a citizen.
May the News never fail to stand
boldly on the right side of all questions
affecting the welfare of the community
and the happiness of our homes.
Sincerely yours,
GEO. H. NEWMAN,
Pastor Congregational Church.
