Walla country was settled, and Oregon
framed constitution, Oregon provi-
sionally asked that that portion of
Washington Territory embracing the
Walla Walla country-lying between
the 10th parallel and the Snake river
be segregated from Washington and
made part of Oregon. But Governor
Stevens, who was Delegate from Wash
ington, vigorously opposed it and it
was defeated. This gave Oregon her
present boundaries
In 1868, when Idaho was made q
Territory, the present Eastern bound
ary of Washington was determined.
$50 far as know" added Governor
Cole, "there is not now residing in
Spokane or Eastern Washington any,
one who was resident OF Washington
when the Territory was created so
years ago."
Governor Cole came to Walla Walla
in 1862, and returned to Oregon in
and returned to Oregon in 1867. He
was Delegate to Congress from that
Territory from 1868 to 1865, and in
November, 1866, was commissioned by
President Johnson Governor of Wash
ihgton Territory. His term as Cover.
nor expired on March 4, 1867.

New Invention for Coast Defense.
From the London News.

From the London News.
An ingenious electrical and tele.
phonic apparatus for defending road
steads, anchorages and mine-felds by
giving warning by visible and audible
signals on shore OF the approach at
night or during thick weather of tor
pedo boats or other hostile vessels has
just been subjected to experiments ex-
tending over several weeks at the min.
ing establishment in Stokes Bay. The
instrument is called bydrophone,
and its inventor is Capt. McEvoy, the
well-knOwn torpedo and submarine
mining expert. The hydrophone con-
sists OF two parts. One part is placed
at the bottom OF the water outside the
anchorage or mine.feld at depth Of
from five to fifteen fathoms and the
other is fixed in station on the shore,
and the two are electrically connected
by cable at distances of from one to
five miles. The submerged part con-
sists of bell-shaped iron case. At
the top is fitted sensitive vibrator or
diaphragm, inclosed in a copper box,
and when the case is submerged the
delicate mechanism is kept clear OF
the water by means Of the column of
compressed air, which is inclosed as in
a diving-bell. No sooner does a tor
pedo boat approach within a radius OF
half mile or man-of.war within q
mile than the pulsations of her pro-
pellers produce vibratory movement
inside the case, and these vibrations
are transmitted by electric current to
q station on shore.

SOUND DOCTRINE.
A Few Fixed Principles Plainly Stated by Adla
E. Stevenson.

]
At a gathering of Democrats in Iowa
last week, Adlai E. Stevenson of Hi.
nois once Vice President and the
Democratic candidate for the same
office in 1900, made very eloquent
speech from which the following choice
extracts we're taken:
Harmony, like happiness, is not
secured by seeking for it.; it comes as
the reward of right doing. Harmony
is thing to be felt, not a thing to be
talked about. The mere mention of
harmony suggests differences that need
reconciliation, and the talk of har-
mony among those who disturbed it,
left the party and lent their influence
to the enemy, naturally recalls the is
sues that created disturbance, and ma.
turally suggests the inquiry whether
the prodigals have repented or demand
repentance of the party.
"The difference which existed on
the money question still exists, for,
while the Republicans are boasting
that the money question is settled,
money is tight in the great financial
centers, and the fnanciers OF this coun-
try are resorting to extraordinary
methods to get enough money into
circulation to carry on business.
"On the trust question the same
line of cleavage appears. The men
who threatened panic ii silver was
restored now threaten a panic If the
trusts are disturbed, and the trust
magnates are casting about for DEM
ocratic candidate SO much like Re-
publican that the trusts can rest easy,
no matter which candidate is elected.
Reorganization means retreat, and
retreat means generalization and dis.
aster. From the low standpoint of ex-
pediency, retreat could not be justified.
The party polled nearly 100000
more votes in support of the Chicago
and Kansas City platforms than were
polled by Cleveland, even before his
political crimes were exposed.
"There is a sordidness about the ar
guments made by the reorganizers
that ought to disgust any well-mean.
ing or high.mindcd citizen. 1t is
really insulting to man to intimate
that he thinks it is more important
that we get control Of the Administra.
ton than that we administer power in
accordance with Democratic princi-
pies, and in the interest of the people
at large.
"To say that right principle must
be dropped because the party has suf-
fered defeat in support of the principle
is as ridiculous as it is cowardly.
"While circumstances determine
the emphasis that should be placed
upon particular issues, no party can
afford to abandon righteous position,
once taken, for fear that 70 maintain
it would be unpopular"

The Weather Report,

The Seattle bureau OF the Climate
and Crop weather service have issued
the following review of the weather
the past season, dated the 14th inst:
The past winter was long, although
not severe one, and lasted until the
end OF March, consequently the spring
is late, and crops and teamwork back
ward. Heavy rainfalls and consider
able snow thoroughly soaked the soil,
and provided an abundance of mois.
ture for the growing crops this spring.
Less than one-half OF the usual amount
OF wheat was sown last fall. Some OF
it did not come up, and, in certain To-
calities, about one-third of it has been
killed out by the frosts, and will have
to be resown. 1t has not made much
progress yet this spring, on account of
unfavorable weather.
The week past has been unusually
cool and showery, with flurries OF snow,
sleet, or hail, and high southwest
winds. It was unfavorable weather
for growth and crops have made no
material improvement. Some wheat
was injured by the wind. The ground
has been in good condition for plow-
ing and good deal has been done.
but spring wheat sowing is only half
done in some districts, while in others
it has hardly begun, the farmers hav-
ing preferred to wait for favorable
weather. Little potato planting or
gardening has been done, as the
ground is too wet and cold for any
thing put into it to grow.
Frosts have occurred almost nightly,
and there was heavy one on the 10th.
Fortunately fruit buds have made
little Development, and no fruit trees
are iu bloom except a few early
peaches and apricots in the warmer
districts. This is considered favorable,
as it is more likely that the fruit
bloom will thus escape severe frosts.
Grass on the ranges and in the pas
lures has been so slow to start that
some range cattle have perished, and
dairymen are still feeding their cattle.

The county board, who were called to
meet on Saturday last to elect success
sor to w. A. Murphy, county treasurer,
deceased, did not have quorum until
Monday, as Mr.. Taylor was absent on
bridge business for the county. On Mon
day MIR. NORM was absent, having gone
the week previous for trip to the
Rainy Lake region, and up to the pres
ent time Thursday, it has been impossi-
bic to locate him. In the meantime the
remaining members of the board have
occupied themselves with checking up
the late treasurer's books. For the pres
ent, deputy treasurer Anderson, under
the direct supervision OF auditor Thor
waldsou, is in charge of the treasurer's
office, for the purpose of doing all that is
necessary and that can be done without
the actual presence of regular treasurer.
1t is understood that while there has qeen
no formal ballot that as it stands there
are two commissioners in favor of pro-
noting Mr.. Anderson to the office, while
the other two favor the election of Mr..
H. c. Thomson of Bowesmont. Thus it
will likely rest with MIR. NORM to make
the majority one way or the other, unless
he has candidate of his own, which
would still leave no choice. fMr. NORM
decides on the wishes of the majority of
his district, then he will doubtless vote
for Mr.. Anderson; if he takes a partisan
view of the matter he may vote for Mr..
Thomson or some other person. This
is only the second time in the history OF
the county that the board OF commission
ers have found it their duty to elect a
successor to a county official who has
died in Office. The other case was that
of sheriff Chas. Brown, who died in Oct,
1884. At that time ]. D. Wallace and ].
]. Hurley were the republican members
of the board and F. c. Myrick and chas.
Mcleod were the democratic members.
After couple Of tie votes, the republi.
lcan members gave the democrats their
choice, which was John Kabernagle. So,
to follow the precedent IS to succession
