cannot be surpassed in the beauty and
variety of its climate.
If one desires healthful, delightful
climate, with plenty of rainfall in winter
and refreshing showers in summer,
where it is so mild that roses bloom out
of-doors until Christmas, and where
summer heat is unknown-where there
are equal advantages for farmers; bust
ness and profes 'ional men-choose that
garden spot of the west, Puget Sound,
and make it your home.
But if you prefer a dry climate, with
plenty of sunshine four fifths of the
year, where the mercury seldom goes
below zero weather, and the dryness of
the atmosphere and the great altitude
render it unusually healthful, you can
settle east of the Cascade mountains in
central Washington, where "Irrigation
is King" and extreme summer heat is
only of few hours duration. and that
is seldom experienced but in the month
of August; yet it is not oppressive, be-
cause of the forest and lingering snow of
the near foothills and mountains. In
fact one can hardly dwell where few

Almost any climate desired. from wet

and valleys exert a constant influence on
it. This moderate climate renders the
agricultural advantages unequalled.

There is nothing that has enriched the

who knows the Captain to refuse to
vote for him. We predict splendid
vote for him all over the county and in
particular here where the Captain is
known and his record is like an open
book to our people.
When Captain Walsh returned from

praise of his faithfulness and efforts in
their behalf. 1t was conceded that he
had been down with the fever on three
