N. P. Railway Accommodations

Much credit is due the Northern
Pacific Railway Co, who through the
efforts of Mr.. L. f. Paskill, their eff
cient and obliging agent at this point,
the depot and surrounding grounds
have become so changed in appear
ance. The depot, since its enlarge
ment and refurnishing, is commo3ious
and comfortable and one of the best
along the line. All business is taken
care of with neatness and dispatch.
Two beautiful lawns, one at either
side of the building, is solely the re-
suit of much hard work by the present
agent and his wife. No finer selection
of flowers have ever been grown in
Washington than is there today.
Grass green and silky, splendid, thrifty
shade aud ornamental trees, cute
little summer house in the center, hop
vines and other climbers covering the
west end OF the depot building-every-
thing about the place neat, tidy, and
in perfect order. The great red water
tank, which is claimed to be the
largest on the Northern Pacific, is
kept running over all the time, Elec-
trio lights are to be put in the Office
soon, power to be furnished by OFT
Bros, proprietors OF the Ritzville
FIGURING Mills.
We can trnthfully say that the
depot at Ritzyille is a thing of beauty,
and, il kept in its presen. condition,
will be Joy forever.

Deserved What They Got.

An incident occurred on the train
coming from Wye Camp that will serve
as a lesson to the unfortunate victim
for some time. A Lewes young man
was passing through a car where was
seated several young men and ladies
from Denton. One of the young men
put out his foot tripping our fellow
townsmen. After gathering himself
together the latter gentleman asked
for an explanation, but upon receiv-
ing nothing in reply but insults and
challenges, few into the stranger and
knocked him down at the first blow.
The rest of the yonng men rushed to
the assistance of their defeated partner
and a free fight ensued. The Lewes
chap whipped them all, at one time
having four down heaped in a pile.
Although there is a decided lack OF
dignity in such affairs it teaches lessons
to some who are too ignorant to learn
in any other manner. .-LeaOeS Pilot.

FREE SILVER MEN CLAIM COLONEL
SMITH AS A BRYANITE. The free sill
verites in Washington are very much
pleased over the nomination of John
Walter Smith as the Democratic candi-
date for governor for Maryland. They
claim that it is a great victory for the
Bryanites and the silver men, and that
it will have a great effect upon the ma
tional campaign. Their reason for
this feeling is that Mr.. Smith, who is
member-ele to the next Congress
from Maryland, completely surren-
dered to the silver forces just before
his election last fall. Smith was sup
posed to have been nominated by the
sound money Democracy, and the sill
verites put candidate against him.
