HERE'S 4 PRETTY HOW'DI 20

Speaking of the Bunce foundry fire in
this city. while warm chinook was
blowing, the esteemed Ellenshurg Local.
iier is moved to say
zone of Ellens0urg worthy citizens,
who happened to he in that windy CITY
at the time, and unaccustomed to such
gusts of dirt and gravel, had to call upon
strong man to assist him in removing
the aforesaid sand and gravel from his
eyes. 1t never blows in Yakima
In another column the Localzer says,
The high wind last Wednesday re-
minded one of the prevailing winds in
Yakima" The idea OF an Ellensburg
Ran complaining of sand and gravel in
lis eyes is too funny, when the average
citizen of that cave of the winds has to
wear Klondike mosquito or a base ball
mask to prevent the flying dornicks from
putting his eyes in mourning every time
he goes to the postofhce or calls at the
opposite corner resort to see a man.

Colonel Blethen gives 1t out flat in a
recent well considered and thoughtful
editorial that the Times will follow
Bryan anywhere but in the direction of
non-eXpansien. In this expression the
Times voices the sentiments of the great
majority of thinking people opposed to
repub Icanism on this coast Unless Mr..
Bryan calls a halt in his program of
anti-expansiOn, there caL be no union of
reform forces next year in Washington
at least. That fact is plain and palpa-
BILE. But there are not wanting evi.
dences that Mr., Bryan will take an
other tack in time to save what appears
to he an inevitab' e slipwreck in 1900.
