FOR THE HALL OF FAME.

In the proposed Hall of Fame" for
the Worlds Fair at st. Louis in 1908
the most representative citizens ono
longer living OF the different states will
be exhibited in statues and busts.
For Washington the names of Marcus
Whitman, the great missionary, and
Isaac |. Stevens, the great soldier
and civil IN, are suggested. In this list
should be the name of Robert Gray,
who by his exploration on the Pacific
coast, did more to save the Northwest to
the United States than any other per-
son. In 1892 he visited Puget sound,
discovered Grays harbor and was the
first English speaking person to enter
the mouth of the Columbia river, which
these first explorations that techni-
cality was created, swaying diplomacy
in favor of this country. Another per-
son OF great prominence in the early de-
velopment of the northwest was DIR.
Mclaughlin, the chief factor OF the
Hudson Bay Co. at Fort Vancouver. 1t
was through him that the Americans
made peaceful settlements north of the
Columbia, and by his leniency and
generosity he incurred the animosity of
the English, who took him severely to
task for his favoriteism to the new set
tiers from the eastern states. DR.. Me-
Loughlin later became an American
citizen and died as such With these
notables there should be place as
signed to the pioneer, Michael T. Sim
mons, the founder of Tumwater.

gists was dispatched to that country to
study the question on the ground. Quite
unexpectedly he discovered that the
home of the insect is not in Japan, but
in China, near the great wall. In this
district, between Tientsin and Peking,
only native fruits are grown, and yet the
dreaded San Jose scale was found in
Testing trees and shrubbery. The logi-
cal conclusion, therefore, is that this is
its original home, as none but native
fruits are found, and consequently it
could hardly have been introduced from
without. An argument which strength
ems this inference is that it is found only
scattered and in "a state of balance"
with its natural enemies. These are
everywhere present and efficient, and
consist principally of peculiar lady
bird beetle known as Chilocorus smilis.
Living specimens OF this insect have
been forwarded to the department, and
no doubt will be successfully acclimat-
lied. at is not, ," writes Secretary Will

considered very creditable piece OF
work. This will take the place of the
old wing dam used heretofore. The cost
to the company of this improvement
alone was $4,000, so. you see, our peo-
pie are not slow to the interests of the
country and the consumers of water.
The class of settlers coming to us is
also matter OF congratulation. 1t is

likes to see thrifty community, and
who encourages schools and churches,
that is looking to our section of the val
ley for a little farm, and it is to such we
are extending the hand of welcome"

MEANT MISCHIEF.
Someone Turns Water Out Of Boiler at the
West Side Creamery.

Some time during Sunday night the
water in the boiler at the creamery OF
Beggs, Bradner & Co., on the west side,
was turned out of the boiler while fire
was under it, and it is thought the work
was done with malicious intent.
The fireman had gone to the plant
early Sunday evening and started fire
under the boiler, banking" it so as to
be ready for an early start Monday
morning. At about 10 o'clock p. m. the
fireman left the plant, after seeing that
everything was in proper condition for
the night. When he returned in the
morning he found that the water had
been drawn out with all indications that
it had been done maliciously. The fire
had famed up in the furnace under the
boiler and warped the hues to such an
extent that work was suspended during
the day. Repairs were completed by
Monday evening and the plant has re-
sumed operations

Why is it that the managers of the
great eXpositions of the present day
spend millions on their undertakings
and never make a cent of appropriation
for country newspapers, upon which
they depend for 4 large share of their
advertising? Everything else is paid
Tor, or is supposed to be, but the adver-
Using done through the country press.
They expect to pay for this advertising
in complimentary admission tickets
to the exposition grounds. Such a ticket
is usually worth about 80 cents, for
which the publisher is requested to give
$50 worth OF advertising. 1t is time TO
call a halt on such one-sided business
methods. Ii the exposition people are
able to pay for other things, they surely
are able to pay the country editor for
advertising their shows, especially as
such advertising is OF no benefit to the
papers, but is OF incaIculable value to
the cities in which expositions are held.
Ii the big cities want advertising they
should pay a reasonable price for it.

STOP WAR ON WEALTH,

In letter to the editor of the New
Orleans Times Democrat in answer to
some questions, Hon. WI Bryan says:
81 shall not be a candidate for the
presidency in the next campaign, and
have no choice beyond the desire to see
some one nominated who was loyal, not
only to the ticket, but to the platform
in 1896 and 1900, and who, if elected,
could be trusted to stand by the people
in the struggle against organized
wealth. While no one can look very
far ahead or foresee the contingencies
that may arise, l have no plans looking
to a denomination at any future tame"
This is very good and very explicit.
But Mr.. Bryan is making mistake II
he intends TO array the democratic
party against wealth Does he mean
to say that the democratic party will
stand against and struggle against the
wealthy people of the nation?
We are heart and hand against the
trusts. But it Is a great mistake to say
that the democratic party is against
wealth. Unless we have some con-
nection with the money power we can
not win an election in a thousand
years.
The head men of the democratic
party should see that it does not stand
as party to make war on wealth.

THE LOGICAL NOMINEE?

The chairman Of the Democratic
Committee, Mr. Grlggs,
if New York dispatches do not do him
an injustice, has put himself on rec.
ord as saying that Mr.. Edward NJ.
Shepard of the borought Of Brooklyn,
New York City, is the logical candi-
date for the Democratic nomination
for President in 1904 In the course
of conversation at the Hoffman
House on last Thursday night he said {:
81 regard Mr.. Shepard as one of the
abIest and strongest of our national
leaders. ] consider him as the most
promising in connection with the flu
ture leadership Of the party, / regard
him as a most likely man for the Dem
ocrstic nomination in 1904.

of ability and high character, and is

parts Of the country, but will not
the fact that he failed to carry
the Democratic city of New York in
the last municipal campaign, as the
Democratic candidate for Mayor, be
sufficient to prevent him from reach
