The Fair Department Store, of
Bellingham, is contending with
another 'boycott' of competing
merchants and wholesale houses
because it refuses to be dictated
to by the Grocers' Association in
fixing the prices of staple COM
modities. The proprietor con-
tends, and justly so, that what
ever goods he buys and pays for
are his and that it is his priv
ilege to sell them as cheaply as he
pleases. If he sees fit to bid for
trade by selling any kind of goods,
whether they are necessities or
luxuries, at lower prices than his
competitors can or will sell for, he
has an unquestionable right to do
so. The probability is that every
member of the grocers' combine.
which is fighting him, is opposed
to such combinations as the STAN
dard Oil Company, the sugar trust,
the beef trust ETC., which control
the output and fix the prices of
many of the most essential house,
hold staples, and yet their meth
DDS are not one whit more obiec-
tionable than those which the Gro
GERS Associations are practicing on
a smaller scale. Even the West
Coast Trade, which champions the
cause OF the associations and has
INDUCED in more than one fling at
The Fair, in a recent editorial on
the question of "maintaining card
prices on staple commodities -
says: Several very able writer's
for whose sincerity and judgment
we have a high regard, have main
tanned In season and out of season
that to attempt regulation of this
character was indefensible from
the standpoint of sound CONNER
cial principles. Indeed, there are
sufficient cases to be cited where
such efforts have proven failures
to sustain the contention of those
well-informed theorists"

Commenting editorially upon
what it calls the islanders cam
paign for better farm and garden
seedsn the Seattle Post-Intelligen-
Ger says:
planting poor seed is one of the
sources of discomfort in the fields
of agriculture. Farmers 60 into
the open market and buy what
they suppose are good seeds.
These are planted without making
any test to determine the germin-
ating powers. If the seeds are
worthless the crop is of no value.
Then the money does not come in
and the family decides to leave the
farm. In many instances they go
to the over crowded cities and
swell the ranks of the unem-
ployed. They are not skilled in
any class of workmanship and are
left without resources. Success
in agriculture depends largely On
producing the best of everything
desired for the market. Good tur-
nips cannot come from inferior
seeds. A fine pasture for dairy
COWS cannot be grown from adul-
terated seeds of weeds and wild
grasses. The department of agri-
culture has issued bulletins on this
subject and warned the people
against dealers who sell poor seeds.
This will not stop the traffic.
Every farmer should procure sam
pies of seeds he intends to SOW and
make tests as to their terminating
powers before ordering large guam
titles"

The fact that Scallin Bros. agree

He was as near blameless and with

ever been our privilege to know and

perience was not loud, demonstrative.
1t was far removed from the sug-
gestlon of show, or sensation. He
never seemed to do or say anything
to be seen or heard of men. His soul
was restful, peaceful, always solemn,
with occasional CLEANS of the 10y un-
speakable, which lighted up his
cO%untenance and moved his tongue
to SWifter pace.
Ut was his purpose to offer himself

the tribute that was paid was a
tender one, particularly the reference
to the deceased's reply to the pos

was all right either way.
DIR. Nicholson's talk, as it might
be termed rather than a sermon, was
a pathetic one. He touched upon his
associations with Mr.. Shepherd in
the class oom and spoke very highly
of his attachments. of his honesty of
purpose that was a leading feature
of his life, and he also referred to
his good work in being AN assistant
in directing many young men in
the college into religious paths. DR..

The Lost Decoy.

II. e. Buermeyer, the president of
the National Amateur Skating Asso-
citation, was describing a banquet that
he had once attended in New York.
81 found this banquet interesting"
he said, land l was one of the last to
leave. In the cloakroom, as l was
putting on my hat and coat, l couldn't
help noticing the woebegone look on
the attendants face. The poor fellow
appeared worried and sad, and every
little while he sighed and muttered
to himself.
"'You seem disconsolate, friend l
said.
"T am disconsolate, SIR said the
attendant.
"'What is the trouble?' said I.
Haven't the guests tipped you well
tonight?

Forest avenue, came along, and asked
if the doctor was to appear at Miss
Reynolds reception, which was held
last evening, at which the doctor was
to speak. The doctor replied
"'Ah! Thad, glad you came along,
as l don't know when l can get off,
I'm called to attend a man who has
been hurt down at Squire Briggs
house.
"Dr. Huntington jumped into the
wagon, the impatient driver whipped
the horse into spirited gait and dis
appeared. This is the last time Dr.
Huntington was seen.
Mrs. Huntington and daughter were
preparing for the reception, only wait
ing for the return o. the doctor. An
old friend of the family, Mrs. Lille
Thompson, of Oak street, dropped in
shortly afterward, and the two older
heads, getting tired of waiting, re-
solved to walk on toward the hall,
thinking that the doctor and his
daughter, who was to wait for him,
would overtake them before their des-
tination was reached. But neither
the doctor nor his daughter attended
the reception.
"At 8 o'clock, no word having been
received from the doctor, Mrs. Hunt
ington grew uneasy. Unable to enjoy
herself, on account of the strange alb
sence of her husband, Mrs. Huntington
requested Mr. Whalen to escort her
home. Arriving, they were surprised
to find the house deserted-but upon
the center-able in the parlor was
found a note from Miss Huntington
1t read:
Dear Mamma-Papa has been
hurt in crossing the railroad track,
and l have gone to him.

Upon reading the letter Mrs. Hunt
ington became greatly excited and ex-
claimed:
This is Schiller's work.!
SCHILLER, you will recollect, was the
doctor who was convicted OF malprac-
tice and sentenced to ten years in the
penitentiary, upon the testimony of
DR.. Huntington.)
"'Oh! fudge!' said Mr.. Whalen.
"But Mrs. Huntington, even from the
first. would not believe that her hus-
band was hurt.

rily pacifying Mrs. Huntington, and
calling upon Sylvester Smith, the two

Lincoln and Webster's Friend.

The late Hon. Charles w. Slack told
the following Of the Hon. Peter Har-
vey, the friend and biographer of Dan
iel Webster:
Mr.. Harvey was large man with
small voice and that pomposity of
manner that many very diffident men
possess. Above everything, he valued
and prided himself upon his friendship
with the great expounder."
The first year of the war of the re-
bellion he went to Washington, and
on his return was asked how he liked
President Lincoln.
WELL" he said, "Mr. Lincoln is
very singular man. / went on to see
him, and told him that / had been an
intimate personal friend of Daniel
Webster; that l had talked with him
so much on the affairs of the country
that l felt perfectly confident l could
tell him exactly what Mr.. Webster
would advise in the present crisis, and
thereupon l talked to Lincoln for two
solid hours, telling him just what he
should do and what he should not do;
and, will you believe it, sir, when l
got through ali Mr.. Lincoln said was,
as he clapped his hand on my leg:
Mr.. Harvey, what a tremendous great
calf you have got! '"-Boston Herald.
