Speaking Of what newspaper does for
its community, the late Senator Davis, Of
Illinois, said: Each year every local
paper gives from $500 to 5000 in free
lines for the benefit of the community in
which it is located. No other agency can
or will do this. The editor in proportion
to his means does more for his own town
than any other man, and with all fairness
man with man, he ought to be supported,
not because you like OF admire his writ
ings, but local newspaper is the best
advertisement community can have. 1t
may not be crowded with great thoughts,
but financially it is more benefit than
both teacher and preacher. To-day the
editors OF local papers do more work for
less pay than any other men on earth.
Patronize your home paper, not as a
charity but as an investment

To foment discordance in the ranks OF
the opposite political party has come to
be considered quite proper for partisan
newspaper, but, when paper garbles its
news reports in the effort, it acquires an
unenviable reputation for unreliability.
This is what the Hoquiam Washingtonan
has done in its report OF the teachers in
stitute, when it says that body passed
resolutions endorsing the superintendent
in his controversy with the county COM
missioners. That controversy was over
some legal construction of the statutes,
and the Washingtonian belittles the i'm
tellgence OF the teachers in assuming that
they undertook to pass upon matters that
belong to the courts. AS the HERALD
does not believe the Washingtonian has
anything but the highest respect for the
teachers, it is forced to the conclusion
that this is only another instance OF our
contemporaries partisan zeal running
away with his pencil.

that the republicans OF Aberdeen can

HANNA'S THOUGH !
FOUNDRY.
M ARK

1t may not be generally known that
one Of the adjuncts OF Mark llanna's COM
mitteo is think foundry, maintained at
the national capital at tie expense OF the
Dngley bill trusts, from whence the
thoughts of the nation are to he directed
in such channels as the boss may vouch-
safe to permit via such 2X4 newspapers
as are willing to become responsible for
its emanations. The foundry moulds
political editorials by the ton, and ships
them hot to such papers of the Hanna
brand as desire them, without money
and without price.
One OF the promises made by this fin
desecle factory is, that the same matter
shall not be sent to more than one paper
in the same locality, so that its ponderous
product may seem original. Through
this agency more than one ambitious edi
tor OF the Bungtown Blatter has come to
be looked upon as very reincarnation
of Chas. A. Dana by his admiring read
ers. Again they are taken to be fools.
A slip OF cog in the mailing depart
ment of this foundry recently has led TO
these remarks. The accident resulted IN
the same chunk of unwisdom. almost too
large for the mails, being sent to the two
leading republican papers in this county,
and the publication OF the same as the
product of the grey matter occupying
space Immediately under the hats Of the
respective editors of both !. r. pc. From
the looks OF this article we should Judge
that the moulders were on a strike, and
this the work OF an inexperienced scab.
However, here it is, just as it appeared
in the Montesano Nidette and the Aber.
deem Bulletin, and published simutane.
ously last Friday:
CATER we have clnched or expansion
policy so that the sun can never set upon
the American eagle it will be worth the
while OF thinking men to consider that
there is ample opportunity for interior
expansion in the reclamation OF some
millions Of acres OF splendid land lying
right in the heart Of the country. When
congress gets ready to vote few millions
for the Orient, let it also appropriate
something to give the west the storage
reservoirs she wants and thus make fer
tile her deserts in the interests Of Ameri-
can home builders"
Not very bright that, yet it bears the
markhanna imprint. 1t is standing
order in that foundry that no casting
shall 60 out containing shout for the
flag or the American eagle without two
shouts for an appropriation. The fool
people must be made to think that the
prosperity OF the country depends upon
huge appropriations OF their money.

LAUGHING STOCK.

"NoN it is said that Auditor Sells de-
liberatelv disobeyed the orders oi the
county commissioners last year, and
turned in the assessment rolls as furnished
by the assessor, refusing to make The %
per cent reduction ordered. This Will
cost the county some eight or ten thou

missioncrs would proceed TO prosecute
him FOR disobeyng the law, it would

Washingtonian.
The HERALD coniesses itself totally at
loss to account ioi the publication OF the
above silly production, which is alright
and perfectly true, except that the reduc-
zion made by the county board Of equali-
cation has no application to the levy for
state taxes; that the reduction ordered
was du,y noted on the rolls AT Il the
county has not lost even eight or ten
mills, by that, or any other action ol
Auditor Sells, OF which last fact the Wash
ingtonian is, or should be, fully cogn-
zant, and, lastly, that the auditor is under
bonds 20 comply with the law. Even If
a majority OF the board are fusion scoun-
drels, surely the Wasningtonian does not
believe that Commissioner HERMAN
would sit ill.y by and see the county
robbed by this incompeten: auditor, who
needs to be taught "a proper lesson "'
The utter abSurdity OF the statement Is
what stumps US. We can scarcely give
the republican candidate ior superintcnd-
cnt OF schools credit for such monumental
ignorance OF the Law. nor do We care to
think the article evolved out OF pure Gus
sedness 10y our worthy contcmpc rary. In
the dilemma we are inclined to the belief
t. at some one, in whose knowledge of
such matters the Washingtonan has i'm
plicit faith, has jollied our friend with
the canard, which lie thoughtlessly per-
mitted to 90 into type.
Fer the information OF the Washing
tonan-for we 30 not believe there is
anyone else in the county who does not
already know-We will say that the levy
for state taxes is made, in dollars and
cents, by the state board this levy is
certified to the county by the state audi
tor, and the county auditor finds, from
the total valuation of the county, what
levy, in mills, is required to raise that
sum and extends it on the rolls accord.
ngy. Any reductions made by the
county board only affect the levy for
county purposes, and can neither increase
or decrease the amount demanded by the
state. For example: For the year 1897
the amount OF state taxes to be paid by
Chehalis county was ,l72, while for
last year, when, according to the Wash.
ingtonian the auditor was making it cost
$40, 900, the amount WAS but SIS, 439, or
nearly $4,000 less, and, we may add in
this connection, that in 1898, when the
republican party, state and county, was
in tie saddle, the levy OIL Chehalis coun.
ty for state purposes was $27,0l4, or
nearly one third more money than was
required from the people last year, not
outstanding that fool auditor, who
needs lesson.

Paradise Alley Tonight.

No play Of recent years has had so
much Of genuine interest to the public
as Denman Thompson's "The Sunshine
of Paradise Alley" which is now in its
third year of success, and which comes
to the Lyceum this evening for re-
turn date.Its interest is broad in its
scope, and the touches of pathos, bits
of comedy, and realism, make it an
entertainment well worth seeing by
everybody, old and young. The key
note to it's success is in the fact that
it pictures real people, real life, and n
real state OF affairs to be found any
where on the great East Side of the
metropolis near the docks. If it be the
highest achievement of the playwright
to ''show virtue her own feature and
scorn her own image" then Mr.. Thomp-
son has been successful beyond his
fondest expectations in his pictures OF
New York life" The scenery is en-
tirely new this season. The famous
Boston Verdi Ladies' quartette, with
out whom Sunshine" would hardly
look herself will have some new mel
odies.
