against the city OF Seattle, for SiS.loo This
Judgment Is for the value OF all tho prop
erty the city condemned recently in suits
brought to acquire title to what is known

Tho city acquired only a portion Of the
land included in the ordinance authorizing
the proceedings because II was dissatis-
fed with the veriicts rendered by the

and by compromise to give the city sum
cient land TO deal with the slide on Yesler

posite results? Even if ii we're not
good logic, does not experience
prove that the results of a demo-
cratic administration have always
been disastrous to the country?
Every republican in this county
should set out to make a convert
before fall. There is no good
reason why this rich, and prosper
Gus community should remain tied
to the wheels of calamity. We do
not believe that the well-to-do
farmers of Morgan, or Hanover,
or Iowa, OF of any other of our
townships want a change. We
believe they are satisfied that un-
der present conditions, every man
who will work, and work with both
brain and Drawn, has a fair chance
to make a good livelihood. We
believe that if the farmers of this
county, and the businessmen of
our towns would only think the
question over thoroughly and with
out prejudice, that they would al
most unanimously support the re-
publican party.
No questions of a local char
acter nor of personal animosity
should be allowed to enter the re-
publican ranks. 1t is only major
ity parties that can afford factions.
A factional fight in the republican
party of this county means abso-
lutte and hopeless defeat. We are
glad to say that there are no evil
dences of faction existing at pres
ent. We are glad to say that
there is no republican in the coun-
ty who cannot take any other re-
publican by the hand and work
with him for the sake of principle.
If this spirit can be maintained, if
we work shoulder to shoulder,
there is no doubt but that, the
right being on our side, the ulti-
mate triumph of republicanism in
Crawford county is but a few years
distant.

We are just in receipt Of a
speech delivered by L,entz of Ohio
against the cloud" bill. 1t so
happens that we were present in
the gallery of the house when Mr..
Lentz delivered this speech. 1t
was the 0 hypocritical utter
ance on a public question we have
ever heard. While in reality Mr..
Lentz was speaking purely for the
benefit of the big mail order
houses, and the publishers of
cheap, vicious literature, he en-
deavored to rest his argument up
on the fact that good literature
could also be purchased cheaply
on account of the low rates on &C.
ond class postal matter. We will
venture the statement that one
hundred copies of "Diamond
Dick" or the .'Chamber Maids
Revenge are sold to the youth of
the country, to one copy of Long
fellows "Evangeline" in the cheap
edition. Mr.. LEM spoke like a
hired attorney, and the publica-
ton houses had evidently furnish
ed himGwith carloads Of cheap
books to be distributed among the
members. The time is coming
when our postal laws will be so
amended, SO that the benefits OF
low postal rates will be accorded
only to those publications which
the people want, and not to those
spurious s~o-called magazines which
people are forced to take whether
they want them or not.
