Tribute to q Noble Woman.

We, as q neighborhood, have not re-
covered from the shock OF Mrs. w. ]
Countryman's death. Truly "greatel
love hath no man than to give his
life for his friends"
Mrs. Countryman was fairly roasted
alive, fighting fire to keep it from
reeching her babies, three OF whom
we're in the room and all are under
four years OF age. Her clothing being
in flames she could not 60 near the
children to carry them out of the
house. The cotton Of . comforter she
was making was burning, 90 she had to
choose between saving her own life OF
the babies. She died heroine.
Who thought that in that little
quiet.loving devoted body there dwelt
q spirit so grand as any that ever
animated any martyr, or hero, that has
graced the pages Of our history. Her
name should be remembered and hon.
ored with our grand list of those
whose noble deeds have outlived them,
and her grave should receive our
tribute Of respect on May 30th. There
is no soldier that would not be proud
to claim her as a kindred spirit; they
both fought for home and loved ones.
A NEIGHBOR.

PRESIDENT johnson was impeached
for resisting statute of dubious consti-
tutionality. If he had arbitrarily closed
a postoflice established by Congress, OF
appropriated money for pensions by an
executive order, or seized a foreign Gus.
tom house without congressional con.
sent, or made war in Panama without
the consent of Congress-if President
johnson had done any or all OF these
things the result of the impeachment
trial might have been different,-Co

ence in the times and the men. There
is nothing truer than what is patriot.

A REsOURCEFUL PEACE OFFICER
The U. S. barkentine Chehalis, COM
manded by P. NJ. Simpson, of Oregon,
was engaged in rather questionable
proceeding, on her departure from
Cebu, an island OF the Philippine
group, few days ago. She had
aboard three Filipino girls, and a
great hue and cry was raised over
their abduction, and a revenue cutter
overhauled the Chehalis, but the girls
could not be found aboard the vessel.
Then Judge Adolph Wislezenus, for.
merly police judge OF St. Louis, pur-
sued the barkentine in q launch, over
hauled her, found the girls in locker,
arrested the captain, brought him
ashore, tried and convicted him, fined
him $500 pesos, collected the fine and
told him 10 60 his way and sin no
more. If there is any other record OF
such self.contained, resourceful execu.
tive and judicial ability it cannot be
recalled by the writer.

This is the amount OF the cash in
the hands of the State Treasurer at
the present time.
Second-There is nothing in my
Office to indicate where tue funds
have been deposited at any time in
the past. At the present time the
business Of my Office is done through
the Capital National Bank, Of Olym-
pia. which, under my direction, has
placed deposits Of State funds in insti-
tutions in Seattle, Tacoma, Belling.
ham, Spokane, Everett and other
places. The institutions receiving
these deposits of Sea,e funds, through
the Capital National Bank, pay no
interest on same, either TO the State,
the Capital National Bank or any per-
son whatsoever. The amount now on
deposit, as indicated, is $693, 35l.S2.
In regard TO this method OF trans.
acting the business Of my office de-
sire to state that my very first consid-
Grafton must be the absolute safety OF
the funds on hand. / have considered
it infinitely safer to deposit the funds
in the manner above indicated than
make the deposits in institutions, out
side OF Olympia, direct from the State
Treasurer's Office. The distribution OF
the funds over the State is under my
direction and the Capital National
Bank is responsible to the Treasurer
for their safety.
desire to further State that / am
under no obligation whatsoever TO
favor any particular institution in
this State in the matter OF the depoait

Third - The only interest. bearing
warrants now outstanding are the
capitol building warrants, which
amount, in the aggregate, to $685.
S41.60. These warrants do not consti-
tute q debt against the State but
against the capitol lands, and are pay
able, only, after such lands shall have
been sold.
FOURTH do not know OF any inter.
est that has been paid to the State, by
any institution, upon State funds de-
posted therein.
Fifth-Since assuming the duties
of State Treasurer, on January IL,
my time has been so thoroughly occu-
pied with the routine work of my
office. that have not considered at all
whether any portion Of the State
funds can be, by me. deposited in abso-
lutely sound and responsible banking
institutions, that would be willing 10
pay interest for the use of the same.
I do not even know what the practice
of the banks is. respecting the pay
ment of interest, if any, on average
daily balances or on time deposits.
Yours very respectfully,
GEO. g. MILLS,
| State Treasurer.

Seattle's Dilemma.

And now it is stated. under authority
OF Bcllingham dispatch, that Seattle
harbor is too shallow for James J. Hill
to tie up his big Oriental liners in,
even after much dredging, and that,
at Smiths Cove, where Hill has built
his docks and warehouses, drcdges
have struck solid rock and can go no
farther.
1t is further said that, in selection
Of an adequate harbor, he has about
decided upon Chukanut Bay, nearly a
mile north Of Brllingham, where has
been found natural dry dock as well.
+ All it needs is II retaining wall built
across the entrance and gates, when il
will be able to admit the largest ships
OF The world. The bay is a deep lone
groove in the rock, extending into the
land and is filled with water. The
land about it is said to be ideally stu.
ated for big warehouses and railroad
terminals, and is just the place for
docking the big steamships. Another
advantage is in that Chuckanut is one
hundred miles nearer the ocean than
Seattle.
The public await with considerable
interest to see just how the Queen
City will handle this proposition. Her
plan has hitherto been the refined
method of simply ignoring anything
OF an unpleasant nature, but these
worlds carriers are rather too large a
proposition to submit to that process.

Alliance Isralite Universelle

A meeting under the auspices of the AL
lance was held in Providence on the 18th
inst, presided over by Harry Cutler. The
meeting was called to organize an Alliance
branch and to raise funds for establishing
a Jewish Institute in Providence.
Nissim Behor in his address pointed out
the necessity for the proposed institution
and strongly urged the divided forces of
Providence Jewry to unite for a common
cause With feeling he said Look at the
various Christian denominations and you
find that each of them provides carefully
for the religious training of their children.
Not so, however, with the Jews of Provi-
dence-a community of some 5000 families"
The proposed institution intends to pro-
vide Talmud Torah for boys; religious
training for girls gymnasium and manual
training classes; social rooms for young men
and women, reading room and lecture hall
for the elders. Rabbi Rubnstein spoke, urg
ing all to participate in the said project and
Caesar Misch spoke warmly in favor of the
undertaking. He thought it advisable for
the Providence section of the !. w. G.. to
cooperate with the organizers of this move
ment.
An hundred and twenty-five members
were enrolled so far for the purpose. Tenn
porary officers were chosen. Committees on
membership, donations and propaganda were
appointed. The permanent organization of
an Alliance branch in Providence was de-
ferred to the fall.
