The Richest Man of All.

The man who is worth the most OF
all in those things which count is the
man who can get inspiration from
trees and flowers, who can hear the
song of the birds and have his soul
uplifted. The richest man Is the man
who can go out into the tabernacle of
trees and enjoy himself listening TO
music Of nature. We mistake what
is wealth in this world. Dollars are
mean thin gs when pitted against ma
ture, while all goods are small when
with richness of soul educated In
the univ ersity of God.-Lawrence

The Washington DOuble-Disc Weed
er the Best Money-Maker Ever
Put on Farm

T. g. Davies. a wealthy farmer and
land owner, writes as follows:
Walla Walla, Wash, June 1st, 1904.
To whom it may concern: This ia to
certify that | am not interested in any
shape or manner in the firm known as
the Washington Weeder Works" do
not own one dollars worth of stock. |
am speaking strictly on the merits OF
their reversible dauble. disc machine. |
have a 6O0.acre field within ten miles OF
Walla Walla, with county road cutting
the field in two. One side OF the road,
containing 800 acres, was cultivated en-
tirely with the reversible double-disc.
The other side of thesroad was cultivat-
ed with the harrow and sleeker. Both
pieces were sown about the same time in
| the fall of the year. The 300 acres
which were cultivated with the double
| disc stands about four and one-half feet
high, with rich dark green color, and
as much on the ground as can stand. 1t
will yield from 35 to 40 bushels to the
care of bluestem wheat, which | consider
far above the average bluestem wheat.
| The grain on the field has certainly dem
onstrated itself to be a perfect master
OF the situation from the time it showed
above the ground to the present time,
and it is perfectly clear from weeds OF
any kind.
The 3OO-acre field which was cultivat-
ed with the harrow and sleeker will yield
about "a bushels TO the acre, and is
quite weedy in places, and the grain has
not the rich color that the other field
| has.
The doube-dic weeder cultivates the
soil; it kills the weeds; the soil retains
the moisture, and you are sure OF good
crop of clean wheat. | heartily recon-
mend the Double Disc Weeder, which has
proved itself to be the Queen OF all
| cultivators.

ROCKWELL and REESE

House Saturday Evening.
An Attentive Audience Listens to n
Discussion of the Political
Issues Of the Campaign.

The republican rally held at the court
house Saturday evening was attended by
most appreciative, although not large.
audience and the speakers were all warm
ly received. The Colfax Military Band
serenaded the speakers at the Hotel
Whitman just prior to the time OF the
meeting, after which that organization
marched to the court house and furnish
ed more music for the occasion. The
Colfax republican male quartete rendered
several campaign songs during the even
ing, all OF which were received with great
applause and enthusiasm. DR.. A. T..
Stuht, chairman of the republican coun-
ty central committee, presided and in
trOduced the spC ak RS.
Sam. ii. Nichols of Everett, republican
nominee for secretary of state to sue
ceed himself, was the first speaker, but
occupied only few minutes time. His
talk was in the nature of an introduc-
tion for the Hon. Dar +. Reese of st.
Paul, who was present upon behalf OF
the national republican organization.
Mr.. Nichols was followed by John ID.
Atkinson, republican nominee for attor-
ney general. Mr.. Atkinson's speech was
confined to state issues and be made a
splendid impression upon his audience,
being literally applauded at intervals.
Mr.. Atkinson told of some of the work
ings OF the state board of equalization,
OF which he is member, and placed a
new light upon some of the democratic
press stories. Mr.. Atkinson ia an old
time friend of Prof. aud Mrs. +. n Eng
llsh and their meeting was very happy
one.
After the COlfax republican male quar-
tete had sang two splendid songs, Chair
man Stuht introduced the Hon. T. ID.

siderable length, making one of the best
addresses listened to 10 Whitman county
this campaign. He spoke as a commits
sion man and his arguments upon be-
falf OF the republican state ticket and
against Mr.. Turner and his aggregation
OF ward heelers will never be successfully
cOntrOverted. His exposure OF the pol
itical character of the democratic spell
binders met the hearty applause of the
audience and he closed with fervent ap-
peal TO the people to hold up the hands
OF President Roosevelt and his admin
istratlOn by voting for Mr.. Mead and
the republican state ticket. Mr.. Rock
we'll also cOunseled, and proved by his
argument, that the only means of Sc
curing railway commission was by
electing republicans, who we're commits
sion men, members Of the legislature.
The Hon. Dar F. Reese OF st. Paul,
Minn., was next introduced. Mr.. Reese
spoke upon the national issues and paid
a glo wing tribute to the administration
OF President Roosevelt. He pointed
with pride to the wonderful prosperity
that was due to the republican policies
in force. His address was confined to
the great national questions almost ex-
clusively. only referring to state issues
in passing manner.
