THIRTY YEARS AGO.

The state board of equalization has
completed its labors, and the results
have been laid before our readers
Washington has grand total Of
S229, 1877 ,539 of taxed property. OF
this Sl37, 500.329 is in land, $3G, 1907, 245
in personal property, and 500, ,9S3
in railroads.
These figures become illuminated
with interest when they are contrast
ed with the property values of the
territory in 1870, remarks the Spokes-
man-Review. Then the total valua-
ton OF all property was only $l3, 562,-
l64. The land and town lots of Spo-
kane county alone, exclusive of i'm
provements, are assessed now for a
greater sum, namely, $14.74G,339.
In 1870 the territory had popula-
ton of 1886. Spokane city claims
twice MS many today. In 1870 there
was not bank in the territory.
There was one daily newspaper, and
it had 460 subscribers. There was but
10 miles OF railroad in the territory.
WaEa Walla, with 1894 population,
was the largest town, Olympia next
with 1903, Seattle had ll07, Spokane
and Tacoma were not.

1t is pretty rocky when an Ameri-
can editor will endorse sentiments ex-
pressed by Aguinaldo, yet we have
them. II they lived in any other
country but America they would have
their paper destroyed and they would
be jailed as traitors. Some people
construe free speech to mean the do
ing away with any requirement OF
allegiance to country, and in that res
pect it would seem that American
law is too lax. 1t is proper and
healthful that people should have the
utmost latitude in criticising domestic
the United states mas a Wmt on her
hands, the man who pats the enemy
on the back should be branded as a
traitor and treated as such. Let us
all be Americans first and thoroughly
whip any power or lot of people VINO
undertake to trample American rights
and honor in the dust. Then, if the
party in lower fails to do the right
thing, it is the time to lam bast it to a
finish, turn it down and put in one
that will. But if you are real
American, never balk with govern
ment load while going up hill.

BE SLOW BUT SURE.

A sober second thought should be
taken by the city officials in the plan
for reform which has been started
The council by resolution has called
for the enforcement of the state laws
on the suppression of vice. The mayor
has signified his intention of carrying
out the purpose of the council.
A test will demonstrate whether the
enforcement of these laws is practical.
They should not be ignored. If they
are not practical let them be abolish
ed. The state laws prohibit gambling
of any kind and declare that any per-
son in house OF prostitution is guilty
of misdemeanor. A heavy fine is
provided in each case.
1t would be we'll for the business
men and the city officials, to deter
mine to just what extent,the reform
movement is practical. To go beyond
that point would result disastrously.
1t is the duty Of the city officials to
conform to the wishes OF majority Of
the citizens, Of those whose interests
are affected, in other ways than a
financial loss.-Spokane Chronicle.

Under the direction of the postmas-
ter general all the postofficos in the
United States begun weighing all mail
sent out yesterday. There are $4,000
offices in the country and mail will
be weighed for thirty-fve days. Mail
has not been weighed by the govern
ment for twenty years, and everybody
has been at sea for long time as to
whether too much or too little was
being paid the railroads and other
transportation companies for mail
transmission. The country has grown
wonderfully since 1879, and figures OF
that time are no longer a safe basis
for calculation. In 1879 the total
length of the mail routes was 1891
miles; this year it is 154,777 miles.
The cost of carrying the mail in 1879
was 81 100000; last year it was $780,
100000. On the reports received as IL
result of weighing, the government
will base new contracts with railroads,
steamboat lines, electric lines, etc.
