ATTRACTIVE RURAL HOMES.
That's pretty house, for this back
woods place" So said one who looked
from the car window, as the train waited
at an attractive residence built by M en-
ttrrrising manufacture In an up north
village. And why not have beauty. and
comfort. and conN cnience even in n 30 lck-
weeds place! These thirgs are within
rcach-and within the reach, too. of SOME
rural localities who do not now lave them
because of lack of private ambition and
public spirit. Put these two desirable
characteristics together, and something
generally happens tD make so-callod
'hackwoods places" ttrac;ive to every
body.-St Johnsbrry CALIFORNIAN.
The above clipping may set someone to
thinking. "why not have my home fair
and attractive, even If the location Is
away from the bustling city or the busy

THE PROHIBITORY LAW.
Frorn the Barton Mor!tor.)

The Monitor believes that if there WIS
a worry strong sentiment I'm favor of doing
away with the law 1t would be shown by
a larger vote IN the contest In the I-eStS-
latuIc. Other questions of Importance and
in which there is a great deal Of interest
inanfe sted throughout the State are set
tied In the legislature without a call for
V, te by the people and why should this
case be made an exception? The law has
been abused in many sections and this
lack of enforcement leaves 1t open to the
attack which Is being made upon it.
While we do not wish to see the law re-
Icaled we are glad that it is being dis
cussed as its weak points will lie shown
and these who favor the law will find they
must see to it that it is enforced.

A LONG WAIT.
(From the Bennington Banrer)
Am exchange. the name of which has
been msaid so we cannot now give credit,
recently said: year after year the demo-
cratic party demands a change In the law
governing the sale OF liquor. The republic
can party sometime forgets to pnt a
plank In it's platform iavoring the law but
1t stands firmly in support OF the law.
There are thousands of republicans who
favor the democratic position and would
like to see the law repealed. In the last
two Legislatures republicans have voted
for a local optiCn measure and In 1900
those so voting represented mary thous-
and freeman, If the republicans OF YER
mont who are opposed to prohibition
would vote at one election as they believe,
the law would be repealed" lnasmuch as
the law was signed by the last mocratic
governor Of Vermont, in 1853, and was
Passed, If we ecollect Alright by the Les
islature that elected him. the Only way to
do Is to grin and bear it," until the same
rarty which forced this law upon the
people comes into power again.

PULLMAN IS to witness during
the current month the two grandest
social events of her history. The
assembly ball next Friday night,
which is the official opening and
dedication of the new armory and
gymnasium at the college, will prob
ably equal i'll splendor and social
brilliancy anything of the kind ever
attempted in Eastern Washington.
The society people of Spokone, Col
fax, Walla Walla, Moscow, and all
other towns for miles around, are
coming, the railroads having made
special rates and special train SER
vice for their benefit. And then,
the coming ofthe great prima donna,
Nordlca, two weeks later, is an
event unheard of heretofore in
towns of the size of Pullman, and
itspeaks worlds for the city, and
for the energy of the gentlemen
whose efforts made the event pos
sible, Cities of many times the size
OF Pullman have lacked the spirit,
or the enterprise, to bring an attrac-
ton of such magnitude.

representative was here during the
week looking over the field with a

eide to come here, the question
where did you get that hat?"
would be answered. OF course,
they'll know you got it at the Pull

Standard Apple Boxes.

After somewhat protracted dis
cusslon the convention of the In
land Horticultural and Horticultural
Association last week adopted
standard apple box. The box is to
contain 2241 cubic inches Of space,
and will be made i'll two shapes to
conform to the different varieties of
apples. One size will be 1ox11x2o
3-8 inches, inside measurement, and
the other will be IoHx1I15xIS o-16
inches, inside measurement.
A United States standard bushel
contains 2I5o.42 cubic inches, so
that the official standard adopted
by the association is slightly over a
bushel. Each box of apples is to
be branded lone bushel."
Advocates of the adoption of this
standard stated stated during the
course of the debate that it is one
third of the official barrel of apples,
as a barrel is known in the eastern
markets. Such a barrel contains
100 quarts, dry measure.
After the official standard had
been adopted, R. c. McCroskey,
who opposed its adoption, moved
that committee of three be APP
pointed to present the matter to the
next legislature and urge the
adoption of such standard by law,
coupling Herewith a penalty for
using any other. The motion pre-
vailed and the committee was ap-
pointed before the session adj
journed.
The champions of the two box
plan were E. II. Hartford of Cakes
dale and j. ]. Browne of Spokane
R. c. McCroskey and Rev. 7. w
Walters were the leaders of the op
position, who favored but one box
The argument that the boxes would
be different in shape but equal il
size prevailed, however. Many
speeches were made on the question
The shorter of the two boxes vii
be known as the Northwest stand
ard" and the longer as the North
west special. "

Ice Men Warned.

Many tons of ice have been stored
in saw dust this week to aid the cit
liens of Pullman in keeping cool
when the July sun is smiling upon
them. Much of the ice put up from
the creek below town is not of a
very pure quality, unfortunately be-
ing tainted and corrupted with the
sewage of the city. The city health
officer condemns the use of this ice
i'll lood and drink, or for other than
strictly refrigerating purposes, and
the mayor during the week had
notice served on all who were put
ting up ice to be careful as to its
quality as the use of impure ice in
food or drink next summer would
not be tolerated. The state pure
food law would reach cases of the
sale or use of the impure article,
even if it were not covered by city
ordinances.

Let the Law and Ordinance.
be Enforced.
Mayor Kreig Observes His
Oath Of Ofice-A Quiet
Sunday-A Law and
Order CITY,

Mayor Kreig is starting out all
right in his official course. He pro-
claimed his platform for election,
an observance of his oath, an en-
forcement of the Law.
He gave orders to the marshal
and police officers to see to it that
the Law for Sunday closing of bus.
mess houses, and the ordinances Of
the village to that effect be Impair
tally enforced.
The result is that last Sunday,
was a Christian Sabbath IN Logan,
and the Mayor is sus tained by all
the good and law abiding citizens
of our town.
The Mayor does not make the
laws. 1t is not for him to exercise
his private judgement whether OF
not an ordinance is good or bad.
His duty under his oath, is to see
thatthe ordinances are enforced !;
this he has done, and we hope he
will continue to do.
1t was said by President Cant,
that the best way toget rid of a
bad law, was to enforce it. If the
ordinances of our town are not
good, enforce them to their full
penalty, and the council under
pressure of public sentiment will
repeal them. To disregard an Or
dinance is to bring law into con-
tempt. 1t is encouragement to an
archy.
Now, if the Mayor will SEQ to it,
that children are sent home off the
street at o'clock, and treat the
hussies who, in the language Of
Ben Butler, 'sparade the streets,
plying their shameless vocation
he will command the regard of the
decent people of our town.
Send them home or send them to
the calaboose. The toughs who
gather in front of churches or
Sunday evenings and vomit vile in
decency should have dose Of stone
pile.
We heartily commend the course
of Mayor Kreig and hope he viii
continue the good work he has be
gun.
