Crop Report.

Following is the weather summary
for the week ending on the 25th inst,
issued by the observation bureau at
Seattle:
Ample rains have thoroughly wa
tered the soil in all localities OF the
State except Klickitat and Yakima
counties, where there have been light
showers only. The temperature was
unusually low for the week, and in
the eastern district heavy frosts &C.
Cured on the 2lst, with ice in the 10.
calities of Douglas and Lincoln coun-
ties. Much injury was done to tender
vegetables and the setting fruits by
the frost, and, generally, the week was
too cool for rapid growth.
The rain improved wheat, and the
soaking OF the soil will be of muc h
further benefit when warmer weather
comes. Fall wheat is stooling and
thickening up somewhat, and spring
wheat, although growing only slowly,
is roofing deeply. The latter is about
four weeks later than usual. In the
Sound country peas and oats seem to
be doing quite we'll. Pastures and
meadows are much improved. In
Yakima county hops and alfalfa were
slightly damaged by high winds.
Strawberries have begun to ripen in
the southern counties.

THE PASSING EVENT.


the spirit of of arrogant disregard of
the rights of those people who are less
well-of; the spirit that seeks to ex-
plot for its own benefit the weakness
of others; the spirit that makes
man of wealth look down on or dis
regard or scheme against the man less
we'll off, or less we'll able to hold his
own i'll the struggle for material
things-that is one OF the basest and
most evil Of spirits.
But there is one equally base, that
is the spirit which teaches envy, hat
red and rancor toward men because
they are well-off, because they have
the goods of this world. The appeal
to the spirit of arrogant disregard of
the rights of those less well-off or the
appeal to the spirit of envy and hatred
of those better off, either appeal its
equally base and equally un-American

decency, morality, the spirit of fair

in his family, he will he mighty poor

rum; the spirit that makes him a
good neighbor. a square man to deal
with in public capacity-you have got
to have that first, and you have got to
have a great deal more than that. 1t
is only the foundation. In the civil
war it did not make any difference
how patriotic man was if he ran
away. You have got 10 have. in adj
dition courage, hardihoOd, strength,
the will to dare, to do, to resolve, to
win triumph, to be able to show your
self man capable of working among
his fellow men. In civil life, the
thoroughly nice, good man, who sits
at home in his own parlor and says
how bad the world is, never did any
good to anyone yet, and the perfectly

very scant use also. / wantthe harm

CLASS LEGISLATION.
Official Salaries Have Been Promoted by Glass
Legislation.
BY BRYON MILLETT. :

BY BRYON MILLETr.
Our State Constitution provides that
the compensation of public officers
shall not be increased nor diminished
during their term of office. Yet, in
the early history of our State, the Leg
islature seemed to have ignored that
provision by passing law providing
for extra pay in that behalf. To the
credit OF Ex-Governor Ferry, be it said,
that he did not approve of the meas.
ure, but allowed it to become a law
without attaching his signature. Ac-
cording to a statement OF the late Col
N. II. Owings before the Thurston
County Taxpayers League, the Cover
nor at that time expressed himself
emphatically to the effect that this
law was unconstitutional, but, as the
session which passed it was about to
adjourn, there was not time to rectify
the matter, hence the bill was not We
toed, and became effective by lapse of
time. The Colonel in his usual clean
cut forcible style, also remarked that
the salaries of officials should be
adequate to operate the Office 10 which
they had been elected, or chosen
that before accepting the position
they might know what to depend on;
that if extra help we're needed, they
were expected to pay for it out their
own pockets, or resign, which is one of
the highest prerogatives of an Ameri-
can citizen, that is rarely exercised,
having become nearly obsolete by non.
use. 1t would seem that such class
legislation was enacted to give jobs to
political parasites. Again. with re-
gard to county affairs, the Board of
Commissioners are often placed in an
embarrassing position when applica-
tons are made for extra clerical help.
1t (the board) may feel that it is unne.
cessary, still it is unwilling to give the
officials an excuse to neglect their du-
ties to the public detriment. Yields re-
luctantly, and the taxpa! er.' burdens
increase.

More Bad Weather in Middle West.

is now Oklahoma Territory that
has been devastated by the elements.
Enid was swept away by cloudburst
SATURDAY. night, and hundreds ul resi-
dents are homeless, the loss to prop
erty being about 100000. The flood
was three feet high and 200 feet wide,
and it swept down the bottoms
at night, carrying about hundred
houses in its current. The disaster
was preceded by the heaviest rainfall
ever known in that region. A tornado
struck Foss, a town of 200 inhabitants,
completely destroying it. F. NJ. Sla-
gle, wife and daughter were killed.
Another tornado struck Anakardo,
Saturday night, demolishing half a
dozen houses. The blow was followed
by heavy rainstorm. Guthrie re-
ports "a days of almost steady rain,
and all streams were 1T the danger
point. High water is also causing
much trouble for Kansas railroads.
Heavy rains have fallen for week
past. The Rio Grande is flooding
vast tracts of land in the White Spur
district, New Mexico. Several thou
sand acres of farm land are under wa
ter and the crops have been destroyed.
On Tuesday three tornadoes within
twenty-four hours swept over Iowa
and caused the loss of six lives, the
fatal injury Of three others, and the
serious injury OF score more, besides
great damage TO property. A cloud
burst at Merrill flooded the Floyd
river and many farms have been de
stroyed. The town of Botna was COM
pletely demolished, and many farm
houses near by blown down. At Cres-
ton. ten dwellings were blown off their
Foundations. Hailstones an inch in
diameter fell in northern Ohio, break
ing many windows, and cyclone WIS.,
tied the lake region. At Kokomo, In
diana, half dozen factories were bad
ly damaged by force of the wind. At
Elmo, Missouri, nine persons were
killed by twister Of mighty vio-
lence, which likewise demolished many
buildings. Nebraska has suffered Sc.
verely from wind, storm and flood.
Buildings in Lincoln were damaged to
the extent of 100000. Indian Terri.
tory is not without damage from storm
and wind. The Washiti valley was
visited by destructive flood Saturday
night, and several railroad bridges
we're carried out.

CONGRESSMAN LOUIS MEDICATION.
1t is thought by some people that
the letter carriers have literally jumped
out of the frying-pan into the fire in
defeating Congressman Loud of Cali
fornia, which they claim to have done
despite the Presidents injunction
against offensive partisanship. Their
opposition, it will be remembered, was
based upon his condemnation Of or.
ganized schemes for expansion of their
salaries. 1t is now assured that he is
to be placed at the head of bureau
having much to do with appointments.
1t is conceded that his knowledge of
postal affairs will be of great value to
the Department. The people never
have endorsed the selfish attempt at
salary increase, nor for establishing q
pension list. nor has the President !;
and had it been so understood, it is
probable that their efforts in Mr..
LIQUIDS district would moi have been
effective. This is more likely than
that there has been decided change
in popular sentiment as is now shown
by the favor the ex. Congressman il re-
ceiving.
