LAKE CuSHMAN. Feb. 14tf


Herbert McReavy and John D. Dow
spent portion of last week at the lake
relocating the mines of the Mason
County Mining & Development Com
pany. They found that the river has
cut within a few feet of the camp and
another freshet is likely to take it.
Mr.. Dow also took down with him
forge, anvil and other tools for safety
and to use in his work on the Falls,
haying secured contract from Fish
Commissioner Little to contruct fish
way around the Falls of the Skoko-
mish. This will enable the salmon,
which have heretofore been stopped
by the falls, to reach the. spawning
beds of the upper RIVER Mr.. Dow
says that it is also the intention of the
Fish Commissioner to est ablish sort
of sub-station of the hatchery at the
falls, to gather and fertilize the spawn
and keep it until 1t reaches the stage
when it can be transported with safe
ty.
Never in the writer's experience
since '88 has Lake Cushman seen such
a winter as the present. Snow has
fallen but two or three times and not
to exceed four inches altogether, and
it has lasted in no case more than a
couple of days at time. Many of the
trees and shrubs are almost in leaf,
and wild plums are almost in blossom.
1t has been great winter for those
who were short of hay, for the stock
have been able to pick a living with
but little regular feed.
Messrs. Holman and Reid are doing
a great deal of work on the "Antlers, .
keeping three men busy all winter.

A DANGEROUS GAME.
4 Roman Pastime That Not tnfrs-
 queatiy Ends in Tragedy.


 Italians in Rome have delightful little game, which is called the Pas satella.0 It is played mostly nowadays in low drink shops, and as it leads fre- quently to murder, the police are anx- lous to stop it. Round a table some men are smoking. At the head sits man with flask of wine and glass before him. He Is the president of the party. All the company, includ- ing the president. have paid for that flask of one, but not one of them can drink a drop of it unless the president gives permission. He, however, may drink as often as he likes. When he passes the glass to another that other may drink until the president cries "Stop." and the glass is passed to the next. Sometimes the sStop!" comes before a single drop is drunk. This is the fun for the others who are allow ed to drink. A good-natured president rarely repeats this joke, but it some- times happens that he has a grudge against one of the men, and then the unfortunate victim sits the whole ev ening, smoking and frowning, while he sees all the others drink but himself This is making an "Olmo" of him! And woe to president who would make an "Olmo" of the same mar twice, for he would soon have knife run across his throat. 1t is the fre- queney of such tragic end that causes the police to try to prevent the game when possible.

II should be the infexible purpose
of all Democrats charged with the du-
~ Of selecting, either directly or
through their representatives, dele
gates TO the next national convention
OF the party, TO see TO il that all are
bound by definite and unmistaksble
instructions The delegates who go
to conventions, there TO choose nation
al delegates, should one and all be in
structed to see that this course is car
ried out. The national delegates
should one and all be instructed 20
insist upon the resAirmation of the
Chicago platform and the nomination
only Of men known to be loyal to its
principles.
There are many men fit for place on
the national ticket, and the sugges-
tion that all delegates be instructed
does not necessarily Imply all must be
instructed for the same candidate.
But delegations bound by specific in
structions are thereby protected
against the Vaccinations and wiles of
men who will make it their business
TO be in that convention for the sole
purpose Of defeating any repetition
Of the action taken in 1896. The full
and free reafflrmation of the Chica-
90 platform with, of course, such
additions as new issues may compel
will make necessary and indeed inevi-
table the nomination OF men who are
in thorough accord with those princi-
pies and. indeed, as II is a matter Of
incontrovertible fact that the peop e,
the masses of Democratic voters, are
answering in their allegiance to that
platform, so delegates who have re-
ceived their instructions direct from
the people may be relied upon to ex-
press the peoples will.
II is urged by some who are anxious
for unpledged and upinstruc'e ed dele
cations that even II the action urged
should be taken,i it affords no certainty
that the pledges will be fulfilled or the
instructions observed. 1t is enough to
say now that no Democratic national
convention has ever witnessed such a
betrayal Of trust, and that no delega-
tions which proved reereant could
exert any influence in the convention
whatsoever And it is worth noting
that papers which were disloyal in
1896, and are regarded with suspicion
now, are arguing for unpledged dele
cations.
Let the maxim be from now until
convention day, Instruct all dele.
