A Washington paper says that MT Davis is in every way an appropriate running mate for Judge Parker. He, too, is gold standard man. He, too, supported MT Bryan in his two races for the presidency on the score Of regu- larity. He. too, believes that the money issae is settled, and settled against the contentious of the demo- cratic party in the last two presidential campaigns. Tn the business world MT Davis is highly respected. He has had large and legitimate success, and his name is associated with enterprises of more than national importance. He is an experienced politician, and has served with distinction in the senate, His 81 years do not burden him. Physi- cally and intellectually he is still a,man of vfgor, and should he be elected he will find in the senate, in the midst of much usefulness, one man older than himself, and number who are but 3 few years younger. MT Davis comes from the ranks of the plain people, and illustrates in his career the advantages open to ability and industry under our form of government.

"Let not the business interest of the country deceive itself, says our Wash ington correspondent, quoting lead ing democrat, let those controlling it prepare for another period of uncer- tainty, unrest, business disturbance and race war in the southern states, instead of that peace and prosperity which both races now enjoy and which has been rendered possible only by home rule and by white supremacy. Let the south not deceive itself either. If the republican party were sincere in it's proposition to reduce southern rep resentation on the ground of the dis franchisement of the negro race in the south, thereby condoning the disfran- chisement or unconstitutional limita- ton itself, it would accompany that proposition with another, to wit, the proposition to repeal the fifteenth amendment. Their dlplicity is shown in this; they wish to maintain the

Alien1sts whose statements may be received with confidence, says an ex- change, declare that not only is insan- ity rapidly increasing in the large Eu- ropean and American, cities, but that the forms which are developing may be classed in the incurable list Habits, environment, mode of living, debauch- cry, excitement, contention and excess es and strains upon the mind and nerves are conducive to mental and nervous affections. The poor are the victims of circumstance; insanity strikes them through their surround- ings, as well as through their usual troubles. Environments affect the soul and the mind, as well as the body. The increase in insanity probably could be checked by recourse to simple reforms. The situation is sufficiently grave to in spire those who are fayorably estab- lished in life to help those who are less fortunate.

THURSDAY, JULY 21, 1904.

The loose registration law is in a fair way to disrupt the local republican party this year of our Lord. As told
 in our news columns day or two ago, well known republicans in their efforts to ''get there" are inducing democrats, or at least making supreme effort to have democrats register as republicans to help them out or into office. The party lash has snapped already. That Is, the lash of one wing of the party, and 1t threatens to whip the naughty ones out Of business if they are not good. This is the time the democrats can sit in the front row, and give the g. o. p. fellows the merry ha ha. Let the fun go on unrestrained, but our ad- vice to democrats is, don't lose your vote in your own party for the sake of helping out some ambitious republican.

The wheat farmers of eastern Wash ington expect to harvest crop of 30,000,00 bushels this season. They planted larger area than ever be- fore, and have & favorable season. Much of the harvesting is performed by modern machines, which head the grain and thresh it at the same time. Five men and 30 horses harvest 20 acres day.
