deem.
1t is rumored that Portland firm will
establish brewer in Hoqriam but we
place but very little credence in the story.
Hoquiam is large enough for Y. M,
G. A. building; why not start the ball to
rolling and get one. All that is neces-
sary is to make a start and keep after it.
Prof. NJ. NJ. Richardson has taken IN
his labors as principal OF the Shelton
schools. Mr.. Richardson is one of the
most eminent young educators in the
state and it goes without saying, that
his work will give univers.l satisfaction
to the good people of Shelton.
Increasing the firms capital stock from
900 to $4,000, with $40, 900 cash in
hand with which to improve the plants,
is the very thing which Fena!s on &
suthoff OF the Panel and Folding Box
Factory are prepared to do, if the citizens
are ready to receive the welcome news.
All that is necessary to secure still an
other large sawmill is to furnish u site
for the enterprise somewhere on the
water front. Here is where we once
more find sore need OF Chamber of
Commerce. Hcquiam cannot afford to

idea is dispelled the better.
Now if Aberdeen wants county COM

trot him out. 1t need rot necessarily be

COMMON AND OTHERWISE.

Pertinent and Pithy Paragraphs From
Bryan's Commoner.
1t appears that Mr.. Roosevelt is max
ing a rather belated revision OF his Min
neapolis Labor Day speech.
A large number OF Iowa republican
rgans are frightened lest the Iowa re-
D ,blican tariff plank be taken in earnest
OF course the trusts urge the president
to keep up "firm foreign policy" The
trusts will attend to local affairs.
Hanna says that he does not mix
politics and business. No, where he has
pecuniary interest it is all business and
when the people at large watch their in
terests as closely as Mr.. Hanna watches
his interests the republican vote will be
very small.
"The tariff should be revised by it's
friends !" shout the republican organs.
and as the friends OF the tariff are its
chief benefciarcies revision is a remote
possibility if left to them.
The coal trust refuses to allow the
strike to be settled by a republican poll
tician. Doubtless the coal trust feels
that it has done enough when it sends
big sum to the republican campaign
fund.
If President Roosevelt does not like to
have Secretary Shaw defend the beef
trust while Attorney General Knox is
prosecuting % it, he has only himself to
blame for he commanded the cabinet
officers to 90 out and defend the admin
stration on the stump.
The republican papers which criticised
Mr.. Bryan for making "campaign tours"
in 1896 and 1900, and said it was not
"dignified' for presidential candidate
to "run around after votes'-these same
papers are praising the president for the
dignifed course he is pursuing in MAX
ing POLITICAL speeches in behalf OF his
party and his own denomination.
Senator Dolliver offers as proof of the
splendid opportunities for young men
the case of young man OF his acquaint.
ance, who worked for five years at 5000
a year and saved $500 OF it. The senator
might have offered more encouragement.
For instance, S. Pierpont Morgan made
500, OOO, 900 in three months by openly
violating federal statute, and John w.
Gates won $4,000 at poker in three
hours.

Incompetence in Office.
(COm muEicated)

The citizens OF this city are frequently
treated to spectacular illustrations of in
competence in Office by the officials of
Aberdeen, but scarcely ever more wildly
than in the instance of the case OF the
State OF Washington vs.. X. T. Dabney,
tried in the police court, Yesterday.
Had the officious official who made
the complaint been possessed Of the ordi-
nary allowance OF horse sense possessed
by business men, the complaint would
never have been made; had the city at.
torney been possessed of as much legal
knowledge as the ordinary law student
acquires in three months desultory read
ing, the case would not have been
brought, and had the police judge good
common sense the case would have been
dismissed, on the motion of the defend
ants counsel, and no further expense
incurred after the suit was brought.
All Of our citizens are cognizant OF the
fact that last summer our city council
passed an ordinance calling special
election for bonding the city for an aggre-
gate amount of 100000 for various OBJ
jects, and that an election was held and
the bonds were voted, all at quite an
expense of public funds. Since the cleo
ton, we have not heard anything more
about the matter, and it is currently re-.
ported that it transpires that through
the incomplete nee Of our officials all their
acts relating to the issue of the bonds
were illegal and that buyers for the
bonds cannot be found for that reason.
Scarcely an ordinance is passed by
this same council that is not illegal,
either by reason of the blunders OF the
city attorney or the council.
1t would seem that the citizens would
wake up to the fact that it is not good
management to elect men to Office either
because they are "good fellows" or to
keep them from becoming public charges
without regard to their fitness for the
places to which they aspire, and would
put up and elect competent men to
office, CITIZEN.

The Seasons Millinery.

In the millinery shapes for early
Autumn, says the October Delineator,
the most conspicuous favorite is the toque
with low, circular crown and brim
turned up straight all around, of the
same height as the crown. The Marquise
or tricorne shapes will be popular in felt
and also in vel. ct and beaver, and wings,
breasts and pompons will be the trim
mings chiefly employed. The sweeping
ostrich plumes will be used to adorn
dressy hats, black and white being the
usual choice. Hats made entirely of
shaded Autumn leaves are especially
suited to the season.-The Delineator.

The Santa Fe has had another week of hard luck. Seven or eight freight cars were put in the ditch Monday near Lamy; three Indians killed. The same day No. 4, the flyer, bumped into a light engine near Hobson which was OH the side track and by some mistake the switch left open. A tramp, who was steal ing a ride on the front of the blind baggage was killed. At this advanced stage, railroad wrecks ought to be few but it seems they are more frequent.

A Minester of the olden Time.

The New York Graphic's portrait of a minister of the olden time There was once a minister of the gospel who never built a church. Who never preached in one. Who never proposed chWIu fair to buy the church a new carpet, Who never founded new sect Who never belonged to any sect Who freQuented public houses and drank wine with sinners.
 Who never received a salary. Who never asked for one. Who never wore black suit and a white necktie.
 Who never used a prayer book Or a hymn book
 Or wrote sermon.
 Who never hired a cornet soloist to draw souls to hear the word" Who never advertised his sermon. Who never even took a text for ser mons
 Who never went through a course of theological study.
 Who never was ordained
 Who never was even "convei tod. Who never even went to conference. Who was he?

Rich in tAOtiCS.

Until one stops to count up the num- ter of valuable eXotics successfully acclimatized in Southern California and producing the most delicious fruits in commercial quantities with values running up into the millions, it is not easy to realize that this number of choice fruits is certain to be vastly increased, giving out people new sources of enjoyment and increased income The California Smyrna fig is now equal to the best produced in the world, and hundreds of acres of fig trees will be planted this year in the Sacramento valley alone. while fig or chards will dot the warm valleys of the whole state from the Mexican boundary line in Arizona and Califor- mia to Mount Shasta in Northern Cali fornia within the next ten years, much to the benefit of the health of the people ,as we'll as to the vast increase in their income.
 In a few years the date palm will begin to figure in the reports of crops raised in our hot valleys and now comes the report from the Arizona eX- pertinent station that the Mediterra- nean and Argentine cacti, which bears highly prized edible fruit as large ds a banana, takes kindly to that To- Cality in Arizona, which can be du- plicated in hundred hot valleys in California. The report also states that ,.e Khira watermelon has done ex- cellently in the experiment grounds, as also the kie apple, a charming green hedge plant.
 We are already rich in eXotics, and indeed our choicest products have come from foreign semi-tropic and tropic countries, or from cross-bred and improved varieties of imported stock through the genius and patience of our Burbank and others who have been inspired by his successors to fol- low his example; but we have by no means reached the limit of the eX- otics which are yet to be made at home here, and in a few years the whole of our favorite and favored re- zion will be equal to the famous bo- tanical gardens of the world.-Los Angeles Herald.
