Our esteemed contemporary. the Ellens-
burg Localizer, has this to say OF q dis-
tinguished citizen Of Seattle:
1T seems to US that too much attention
is being paid Warehouse Bill White and
his political rawlings In the P.-I. by demo-
cratic newspapers. II the democracy Is to
Loose Mr.. White II 10 really TOO bad. but
II he IL bound TO be an obstructionist In
the ranks. drop him and let II 60 at that.
Making Il personal fight against him will
not result In any good to the party. We
say let him be- X the old 'warhoss' does
not ceme to his proper senses before long
and cease licking over the traces he will
cripple himself In such a way that he Will
be Of little use to any party"
Our contemporary is a little confused as
to the details. The Democracy did net loose
Mr.. White; he unhitched himself when he
discovered that Bryan and his gang Of flag
lowerers were trying to get him into Dad
company.

Despite the cry Of the aunties that the
country is going TO the demnition bow
vows on account OF the expense Of the
war in the Philippines and the cost OF
governing Cuba and Porto Rico. the pub
lie debt was reduced last month IS. 600 CO.,
and there Is reason to believe that this
month will see further marked diminu-
ton. When we consider our wealth and
population. the amount Of our indebted
ness seems Insignificant, and the best
part of It Is we owe 1t to ourselves
United States bonds were formerly held
abroad very largely, but with the re-
duction OF the debt and the Increased
prosperity OF our people these creates,
