! WHAT PEOPLE SAY. !

Walter j. Red received letter
last week from my brother John who
writes that he is getting better rapidly.
The soreness has gone out Of his back
and knees and he has thrown away his
cane. My wife also writes that she is
convinced that John will get we'll under
the present system OF treatment.
T. r. Fisher-An Indian can spot a
good piece OF leather quicker than white
man, and when an Indian buys harness
you can gamble that it. is good one.
never sell cheap harness to the siwashes.
They want the best and know when they
are getting it.
John Michaels-Demand for sleeping
Accommodations have more than doubled
in the past few weeks at the Hotel Bar
thoet and in fact upon some occasions
we have been obliged to put four cots in
II room. A week ago Friday kept count
and was forced to send away forty people.
I could profitably use twenty additional
rooms.
Judge L T. Erwin When Congressman
| Town spoke Tor three hours in Seattle
recently the largest audience ever
gathered there went wild with en-
thusiasm. He is today, without question,
the greatest exponenent of the principles
which are opposed to those advocated by
Mckinley to be found in this great coun
try. Many votes were changed by his
speech and know of number of con-
servative gold democrats who voted for
Mckinley four years ago who will this
year cast their votes for Bryan. Attorney
Boyle remarked to me that it was the
greatest political address he ever listened
to, and this voices the opinion OF all who
were favored with being present at the
meeting.
Jas Fraser-The next legislature should
pass law requiring every owner OF sheep
who uses the ranges to dip his sheep at
least once a year. The law requiring
migratory sheep to be dipped before com.
ing into the state is good one, but
should be supplemented with such one
as mention. have found scab in my
flock, which were perfectly free from it
when sent to the hills, but which they
got by camping in places used by sheep
afflicted with the disease. l intend to
dip my fiocks again this season.
H. G. Griffiths, Whatcom-Yakima
has made many Improvements since |
left here and am pleased to see it for l
have numerous warm friends and pleas
ant acquaintance here and am anxious
to see them prosperous and the town and
country move ahead at the rate it is now
doing. The fair is good one and there
are many creditable exhibits. It has not
been we'll advertised throughout the state
and the account which was sent to the
Post. Intelligencer, carrying the impress
sion that fair would not be held this
year undoubtedly has had very serious
effect on the attendance. 1t was q SER
ious mistake OF the correspondent and
appearing as close as it did upon the
time for holding the fair its detrimental
results could not be rectifed.
| D. E. Lesh-I haye recently sold 1900
tons of alfalfa hay from the Mckee COM
pany's yards to Coffin Bros at "a per ton
in the stack. Aside from this the hop
yield will be greater than ever before and
from present indications there will be a
ton and half to the acre. Prices range
from l3 to IA cents but dealer told me
that before the season was over 20 cents
would be offered. Last year the hop
crop beat the worlds record but it has
been pretty we'll used up. This year in
stead of having 100000 cwt England's
crop Is estimated at from 100000 to 250,-
600 cwt and she will require 1900 bales
OF hops from this country. The Pacific
coast can supply them but If it does New
York must furnish the hops for the
United States.
John G. Boyle-The best piece of
newspaper work have ever done will
appear in the Republic this week. 1t is
an account of the organization Of the
Bryan and Stevenson club. am proud
OF the account and think it good bit Of
reporting. How will my ticket stand
this November? 1t will be for William
Jennings Bryan md for H. l.. Tucker
for sheriff. There will probably be others
on the republican ticket that l will vote
