Historical.

In 1852, The Columbian, the first
newspaper published in the territory
Washington was started at Olympia.
During the summer of this year a
meeting was called at Olympia, TO
take into consideration the advlsibility
OF memoralizing congress for the for
nation OF a new territory north of
the Columbia river, to meet at Month
cello, Cowlltz county, to consider the
question. At this convention a mem
orial was prepared and forwarded to
congress, and there being no objection
on the part OF the people south of the
river, delegate Joseph Lane procured
the passage OF the i'll, and March 8,
1858, it received the presidents sigma
tore.
Under,the act creating the Territory
>ot Washington, Major l. l. Stevens,
U. S. engineer, was appointed COVER
nor; Chas. Mason, secretary; J. s.
Clendenin, attorney; j. Patton An
derson, marshal; Edward Lander,
chief justice; Victor Monroe and O.
B. McFadden, associate justice. Mar
shal Anderson arrived early in the
summer, and located in Olympia.
Governor Stevens and party arrived in
November, and on the 2Sth of that
month issued a proclamation, dividing
the territory into judicial and legisla-
tive districts, and calling an election
the following January.
The legislature chosen in January,
1854, assembled at Olympia the follow
ing month, and, in accordance with
the provisions of the organic act,
selected that place for the capital and
seat of government.
At the election in 1890 the new
state, by an overwhelming majority,
selected Olympia as the capital for the
new state.-Olympia Chronicle.

Enormous Crop OF Wheat.

SPOKANE, June 3O.-E. Garden Of
Seattle, manager of the j. @. Adams
system OF warehouses along the Great
Northern, estimates Washington's
wheat crop, barring bad luck, at 80.
100000 bushels.
aNever have I seen such astoaish-
ing Yields he said tonight. ri esti-
mate that 100000 bushels will come
out of the Big Bend 100000 on the
Central Washington road and $500.
OOO on the Great Northern"
Samuel Glasgow, of the Centennial
mills of Spokane and Seattle, confirms
this estimate. He predicts that if
present conditions continue the states
yield will be double that of last year.
when it was 6,000,0O0 bushels. Har-
vest has started on the Spokane prairie
nearly month earlier than usual.

The Prohibitiontst's Ticket.

CHICAGO, June 28.-The Prohibition
national convention adjourned sine
die to day after having placed in nomi-
nation for president John G.. Wooley,
OF Illinois, and for vice-president
Henry B. Metcalf, of Rhode Island.
The nominations in each instance
were made on the first bullot. Only
two candidates for the presidential
nomination were balloted tor-Mr.
Wooley and the Rev. Silas G. Swallow,
OF Pennsylvania, Hale Johnson, Of
Illinois, withdrawing his name at the
last moment and throwing his strength
to Mr.. Wooley. This undoubtedly
had great effect on the result, as the
convention earlier in the day had been
nearly stampeded for Swallow by an
eloquent speech of HI. L. Castle, oil
Pittsburg, and had the friends of the
Pennsylvania clergyman forced a bal
lot at that time the result might have
been different.
For vice-president three candidates
were balloted for-H. B. Metcalf
r. Caskerdon, of West Virginia, and
Rev. E. L. Eaton, of Iowa-Mr. Met
calf receiving an overwhelming major
ity of the votes cast.
The announcement was made that
the prohibitionists would guarantee
the democratic party a million votes
If the latter would include a temper
ance plank in their platform. The
offer was not accepted,-the idea O.
water and whiskey mixing is little
humorous.

NEVER send dollar away when the
article that dollar will purchase can be
obtained at home. Money is the f.
nancial blood Of the community, and
it is its circulation that keeps business
alive. Weaken that body BY sending
the money away and legarthy and in-
activity viii result. Always patronize
home merchants: Watch the bar

Bryan's Marcus"

New York, June 29.-Members of
Tammany hall are enthusiastic today
over story to the effect that former
Senator w. A. Clark, of Montana, is
to contribute 81. 100000 to the Bryan
campaign fund. AS the story is told
by friends of Richard Croker Clark is
to authorize the Tammany chieitain
to make official announcement OF the
princely donation at Kansas City dur
ing the convention and thus permit
him to gather up any reflected glory
possible.
Clark is credited with feeling OF
great bitterness against the admins
tration for the turning down he got
in Washington last winter, and is said
to be willing to burn his money in an
effort to get even.

Comment is Unnecessary.

The Oswego, Kansas, Independent
has resurrected an old banner which
was carried in fusion professions dur
ing the campaign OF 1896. Here are
the inscriptions it bore
A Vote for Mckinley Means More
Tramps.
McKinley's Election Means:
1O-cent Corn.
25-cent Wheat.
08-cent Oats.
ST. per ton for Hay.
5-cents per pound for Butter.
2-cent Hogs.
Ii cent for fat Cattle.
No Money TO Garry On Business.
1t is unnecessary to say that no
class of people in Kansas are more
ashamed OF this banner now than the
fusionists themselves.
