Esprit OF THE PRESS:

The secretary of the interior. 1t is
reported has disapproved the Tietan
irrigation project, but will purchase
the Sunnyside canal, and is likely to
approve of what is called the Sunny
side extension. This would be es-
pecially beneficial to Benton county
and the lower valley, and North Yak
ina. OF course, having taken the po-
sition that what benefits the valley
will also benefit that splendid city,
will rejoice with Benton county and
her growing county seat on their
bright prospects.-Prosser Bulletin.
The indications are now that If
Sunnyside, Outlook and Liberty do
their part. the North Coast railroad
will be built through the valley north
OF Snipes Mountain. affording rail-
road facilities to these points. This
would be great boon to this sec
ton. and is well worth a long. strong
and continuous pull.--Sunnyside Sun.
| Conservative reformers do not de-
sire cuts sweeping enough to imper-
II the safety of life insurance. What
they do want, however, Is such scru-
nulous exercise Of the fiduclary trust
imposed that the policy holders will
derive every benefit that can come of
prudent and honest handling of their
money.-Toppenish Review.
That the North Coast Railway Is
an offspring Of the Chicago. Milwau.
kee & st. Paul, and that 1t will be
built to form a part of a trans-con.
tinental line, becomes more apparent
every day. and that Walla Walla will
be on the line is also beyond Ques.
ton. James A. Kerr attorney for the
North Company, has given out the
statement that most of the right OF
way has ben secured between Walls
Walla and Seattle, and that within
sixty days will be commenced at both
ends. Surveying parties are known
to be at work east of here, looking
out route over the Blue Mountains
1t looks very mucn like business.

THE 1905 SESSION LAWS.

The present session of the legislature
promises te make lot of trouble for the
1889 code and subsequent session laws.
Up to date more bills have been intro
duccd than any session in the past. If
you do not get copy of the new meas
ures you viii not know what is the law,
and you know that ignorance of the law
does not excuse any person. The quick
est, cheapest and best way to know the
law is to buy a copy of the pocket
Edition. of the laws. This will be
printed within a few hours after the gov
ernor has disposed of the last measure
before him. It will, in addition to the
laws, contain 80 pages of North Dakota
statistical matter which will be of in
terest, we think. The "Pocket Edition
will cost but dollar, and its possession
may save you much more than this.
Send this sum and your address and the
DEMOCRAT will have copy delivered you
as soon as printed.

JACK GORDON,S PRAYER.

Our old friend j. D. Gordon, former
Walhalla citizen and known to near
ly every early day resident of this county,
is credited with having under the inspira-
ton of his pronounced Scotch character
istlcs given the breath of poetic inmor-
tality to the following supplication of a
ellow-countryman from the "land O
cakes" who by the seductive advertise
ments of the Winnipeg real estate boom
ers, chanced to get located in an Irish
neighborhood;
"Oh, Lord we approach Thee this nicht
in attitude o prayer and complaint, when
we came to Manitoba, Oh Lord, we ex-
pected to find the Ian flowing wi milk
and honey, but instead O that, Oh Lord
we fon' place peopled wi ungodly Irish.
Scor EN- out, Oh Lord, drag 'em o er the
mouth of the bottomless pit. But you
medina let them drop in. Rather send
them into the backwoods o Canada make
them hewers O wood and drawers
O water, and if you have ony special
favors to grant, Oh Lord, or ony Ian tc
gi' away, gi' it to your own peculiar
people, the Scotch, and Thy name alone
which is worthy, shall have all the
praise. Amen.

the Modesto, Cal, Morning Herald, only

the Modesto, Cal, Morning Herald, only
echoes the favorable impression their
concerts have created all along theIroute:
The Philharmonic Ladies' Quartette of
Chicago, which appeared before a Mo-
desto audience Friday night under the
auspices of the local Philharmonic society
fully made good with the audience
which greeted them, an audience
which was composed of the elite Of
Modesto and vicinity, and which filed
the hall to overhowing. Although all
of the numbers were most excellent, the
work of Miss Elizabeth Ferguson, the
contralto, and of Miss Davis, the alto and
impersonator, seemed to be appreciated
the most by the audience. Miss Eliza
beth Ferguson has marvellous voice, as
has Miss Fanny Ferguson, the soprano
and of the two the contralto received
the most applause. Still, the troupe is
composed of quartet of singers so good
| that it is hard to pick the favorltes. The
impersonations Of Miss Davis were heart
lily received, and the audience wished fol
more of her readings. Harriet Eddy
the accompanist and mezzo soprano, did
not occupy so prominent position as
did the other ladies, but no doubt much
of the applause given the combination
numbers was due to the able work o1
this lady. The quartet will always be
welcomed in this city. In rendition ano
technique they have never been excelled
perhaps never equalled, by any com
pany appearing in this city-M odeste

MISSOURI LEADS THE WAY.

The Insurance Commissioner of Ne
vada, under laws giving him authority
has declared that the New York Life
Insurance Company cannot do
business in that State unless
all misapplied funds are re-
placed. The New. York World
prints letters from many Insurance
commissioners. several Of whom de-
clare that the companies that misap-
ply trust funds cannot do business in
their States unless restitution is made
of money improperly distracted from
policy-holders. The Insurance Com
missile ner of Missouri offered a resolu-
ton last week at the Insurance Con-
vention that all officers guilty of di-
verting policy funds to political or
other purposes be required to replace
