WHAT AILS JONES?

In the Montesano correspondence to
the Hoquiam Washingtonian last week
the following item appeared: "Seth
Warren wears his usual smile, as he re-
marks eyes we find few stray detail
sheets now and then, just matter OF a
few hundred dollars to the county" The
HERALD hastens to congratulate Mr. War.
rem, not alone upon his acuteness in dis.
covering the mslaid lists, the finding OF
which may have saved the county some
money, but also upon the amount OF free
advertising he has obtained thereby. All
the republican papers have-and for all
we know justly-given credit to Deputy
Warren to such an extent as to remind
one OF the title OF the famous comedy,
"What's the matter with jones'" An.
other source of congra.ulation upon our
part, and the county at large, lies in the
knowledge that the faculties Of Judge
Warren show marked awakening when
contrasted with the obtuseness displayed
during his four years as assessor. There
is now reasonable ground for the hope
that in making the Hoquiam assessment
this wear he will be able to see the y, w.
L. Co. S lumber piles and hear the whis-
ties of the tugs as we'll. This will be an
other saving to the taxpayers Of the
county for which all will be truly thank
full, and to which the HERALD will give
due publicity.

THE CASE STATED.

The people were led to believe that the
war with Spain was an unselfsh fight for
liberty, humanity, and justice. The dem.
ocratc party, backed by the popular de-
lnand, forced the administration into the
fight against its will. Poor old moribund
Spain soon succumbed to our invincible
proves. Nobody knew or cared any
thing about the Philippines at the out
break of the war. Like Mr.. Dooley, the
majority OF the Americans did not know
whether they were islands or canned
goods, and did not care, until our peerless
Dewey sunk the Spanish feet in the har-
Dor OF Manila. e But when all was over,
the lust for conquest and the greed Of
gain seized upon the capitalists and the
press Of the country and many Of the
people, blinded by the glory of the fight,
were deceived and led astray. Then the
peace commission was sent to Paris to do
the bidding OF the white house cabal.
Everybody knows that the work Of the
commission and the fruits thereof were
simply the will Of the president and his
intimate advisors. And what were these
precious results, achieved at the cost of
so much treasure and bombast? Why,
the United States, the land OF the free
and the home OF the brave, is pledged to
buy desperate revolution from the Dons
at cost Of so, 900, 900. and continue the
task at which our quandam enemy has 80
signally failed, viz, the subjugation Of
the Filipinos and their enslavement to
the bond-issuing power, in order that a
new territory may be compelled to pay
interest to the international Shylocks.

The friends Of the imperialistic policy
urge in defense Of their purpose that there
is no intention to admit the Filipinos to

Shades of jefferson and Washington and
Franklin, 1t appears from this that all
men were born free and equal except the
Filpinos. The truth is that in the eyes
OF the oligarchs the Declaration Of indie
pendence and the constitution have be-
come simply so much old junk which
will no longer be allowed to letter the
modern spirit OF progress. This is
what we are coming TO. Our rulers are
only waiting until thew feel strong enough
and they will plainly tell US SO.

Opening Of The Na22anuttel
Academy.
A NOTABLE EVENT.

The opening of the new Massanutten
Academy at this place on Tuesday, nm
der the auspices of the Reformed church,
was an event OF importance to our peO-
PIE. Every man, woman and child in
this community feels more or less inter
est in the success of this most worthy
institution, which means much for the
town. That it starts off with such en-
couraging prospects, is a subject Of con-
graduation among those who have
labored so hard to launch it on sue
cessful career, and those who have so
earnestly wished that their fOndest
hopes might be fully realized.
The handsome building was filed on
Tuesday morning with a deeply inter-
ested audiance, among whom wer peo-
pie frcm other sections. The opening
prayer was made by Rev. r. K. Jones,
and was followed that impressive hymn,
"TIoly, Holy, Lord God Almighty"
This was followed by reading from
the scriptures by Rev. A. B Bauman.
and an impressive prayer was offered
by Rev. n. H. Skyes. Rev. DIR. Hofl-
helms, of Marhnsburg, W. Va, then
made deeply interesting address, in
which he was closely followed by the
audience. After the singing Of hymn
Rev. Mr. Stonesief fer, of Winchester de-
livered an address on 'mental powers"
Succeeding the last named Rev. Mr..
Cooke, Of the Christian church, of this
place, in a very pleasant manner ex
tended the congratulations of the con-
gregation tic represented. along with
his and their best wishes for success.
After prayer by Rev. Mr.. HofI'hiner,
the eXercisesof the morning were closed
with the singing Of the hymn, MY
country, It's of Thee"
Long before the time set for the eve-
ming proceedings it looked as ifall our
people were on their way to the Acad
envy. and soon the buiIdinS was crowd
ed while the overflow filed o good part
Of the handsome ground.
The newspaper, although on hand
at what he thought was sufficient

standing room anywhere in sight or

thing passed of nicely, and the elegant

was greatly enjoyed and heartily APP
plauded. The building, formerly The
residence of the late Senator Riddle
berger, has been thoroughly changed
and enlarged, and is now an ideal
building for school purposes. The To-
cation on commanding elevation at
the south end Of town, is one of The
most beautiful in the Valley, the view
from mountain to mountain and for
long ways M and down our fariamed
Valley Is simply magnificent.
The school starts ont with the most
encouraging prospects. Already over
forty students have been enrolled,
sixteen Of which are in the department
OF music, while applications are con-
stantly being received.
We congratulate all connected with
the management o. the school upon the
success that has thus far rewarded
