PULLMAN GIRL
GETS LARGEST VOTE
Pullman People Show Old Time
Spirit, and Miss Slarer Gets Big
gest Vote IN County.

AS result of an exhibition of Pull
man spirit, Miss Louise Slater will
represent this county on the trip
to Portland and other points on the
Spokesman-Review excursion next
week, and the young lady will bear
the distinction not only of having re-
ceived the largest vote accorded any
one of the many contestants in Whit
man county, but of being surpassed in
number of vote by only two others
in the entire territory covered, and
those two being in the city of Spo-
kane.
This contest was inaugurated some
time ago by the Spokane daily paper,
which proposed to take as its guests
to Portland thirty young ladies', of
whom two were to be selected from
Whitman county. Each town in the
county had one or more contestants,
but to Pullman and her fair candidate
comes the pleasure of an overwhelm-
ing win, Miss Slater's vote having
reached 113, 1872. The other successful
contestant from this county was Miss
Dora Briggs, of Palouse, with 865, 27
votes. The Colfax contestants, who
led during the most of the time, were
defeated by several thousand.

GRANGE PICNIC
4 Big SUCCESS
Four Days Picnic Attracted I'm
mense Crowd, with Many En-
tries IN Stock Show.

Per1ect weather conditions, with a.
bounteous harvest near at hand, and
all nature dressed in her best bib and
tucker, put the Palouse country in the
proper spirit for picnicking and cele-
brating, and the 9th annual grange
picnic in Lyle's grove at Evansville,
proved four days of jollity and sport
and big crowds.
The people gathered from far and
near, and the dozens of tents housed
families who took advantage of the
opportunity to meet with their neigh
bors and enjoy few days of freedom
from the daily grind.
The stock show called out the best
stock of the country, and was evidence
of the fact that the standard of Pa
louise stock is going higher with each
succeeding year.
The greatest interest was manifest
ed in the dairy COW contest, and fifteen
cows competed fer honors and the $125
buggy. This test was conducted Tues
day under the direction of Prof. Sew
erance, and resulted in victory for a
Jersey-Durham COW owned by T. w.
Hoffman, between Albion and Colfax.
The cows were MIXED at six o'clock
Monday morning, and again at the
same hour in the evening and the milk
weighed and tested. The winning COW
produced at the two milkings 363 lbs.
of milk, which contained under the
Babcock test per cent. of butter fat,
or 1925 pounds of butter. The sec
ond cow, exhibited by Max Hinrichs,
produced 46 pounds, 7 OF. of
milk, testing SO per cent, or 1.67 lbs.
of butter. No. 3, owned by T. Stire-
walt, produced 80 lbs, OF. of milk,
testing 3.2 per cent, or 1.25 lbs. of
butter. No. 4, owned by F. N. Small
ley, produced 33lbs., 10oz. of milk,
testing 3. percent. or l. 14lbs. of butter.
The other cows ranged from this fig
ure down to one producing 67 lbs. of
butter in the day, this being about
one third of that of the winner, show
ing the great difference in dairy cattle.
Another contest that attracted great
interest was that of the pulling teams,
the team of P. G. Bickford, of this
city, winning first place and Orin Bur-
MANS team second.
The winners in the various classes
of the stock were as follows:

ABUSE OF INSURANCE
SYSTEM SHOULD STOP

The Journal is requested to publish
the following communication which ap-
peared Ill the New York Herald;
To the Editor Of The Herald:
Some newspapers have been indulg-
lug in a carnival of abuse toward the
whole system Of life insurance in this
country. Man3 of their attacks have
been timely and we'll directed, How
ever, there has been displayed palpable
ignorance touching many points of the
subject. Judicial and legislative ma
chinery has been set i'll motion to
correct abuses. Loyalty 10 our coun-
try, our state, our city, their honor
and good fame should restrain us from
bursting forth iato wild and continued
abuse of our institutions. All our
great life insurance societies are per-
iectly solvent, and could close their
books forever to new business and pay
every dollar of their liabilities, which
would be impossible for a single as
sessment concern to do without work
ing a speedy dissolution of it's organi-
zStiOl.
The comparatively small amount of
money that has been diverted from the
pockets of policy holders by graft sys-
TEN is insignificant. Those who in
dulge an silly prattle about limiting
lhe magnitude Of life Insurance com
panies seek 20 place limitations upon
the capacity Of the American people
TO manage and control concerns of
great magnitude Those who hold that
no more should be permitted to take
a deferred dividend nOliaV seam 10 ia lyo
the position that we are greatly in

The improved long term distribution
plan gives tho insured the advantage

annual distributive policy holder does
not participate iii. E. e. WARNER.

Meaning of
The Term "Foci."

There has been so much misappre-
hension over the meaning Of the word
.'Foci." as. contained in the dispatches
IRON New Orleans, that the following
article upon thu meaning of the word,
which appeared in a recent issue Of
the Jacksonville Metropolis, as ex-
t-emely timely;
The Metropolis has been asked by
so many people what the term focl
means that the following explanation
viii be OF interest:
The word focus" of which 'focI"
is The plural form, in its original
sense meant fire place" and as the
fireplace or fi~eside was always the
place Of the gathering together of the
family. its secondary meaning became
"a center"
II is a naturGliZed, not derivatlVe
word, as il was adopted from the
Latin into the English in unchanged
form. Its first use in English was
by Kepler in 1904, and was for a long
tine a technical word Used in the
branch OF physics known as optics,
and meant either the point of con-
vergence or divergence Of rays or
light.
1t is now used figuratively in any
connection, simply denoung a con-
verging point OF interest or attraction,
from which rays (iguratively) may d.
verge.
As a medical term its meaning is
a center OF infection, and sub-foci
means other centeFs towards which
the disease has cOnveTged and from
which the disease may spread.
AS. for instance, the first case OF
yellow lever in New Orleans is regard
&c by the physicians as the original
focus, each new case traceahle TO that
case Is a sub-focus, but each new case
not traceable TO that case is a new or
original focus; thus they speak Of
foci and sub-foci. The aim Of the
board OF health is to so insulate every
focus that from it can be disseminated
no sab-foci. The way 10 prevent the
original fOci is yet to be discovered.
When PandOFa's box was opened
each noxiOus, flying thing that ema.
mated was a focus"

Edwin d. Lambright,
In Tampa Tribune.

There's the medium liar, the high
grade liar, the liar of low degree;
The liar who lies for the fun of the
thing, the liar who lies for fee;
But of all the liars, Industrious liars,
the worst you can ever espy
Is the triple-tongued Yellow Fever
Liar, with his more new cases' lie.
There's the fish-story liar, the snake,
story liar, and each is peach" in
his way;
The liar who scatters society scandal,
prefacing it, so they say"
But the liar who puts them all on the
blink, who les without batting an
eye,
is the microbie Yellow Fever Liar,
with his more new cases" lie.
There's the liar who swears, the liar
who smiles. The liar who sticks to
his tale;
The liar who fills the high places of
life and the liar who lies in jail;
But the smoothest AMI sliekest. the
keeaest and meapest, who operate
under the sky
Is the criminal Yellow Fever Liar, with
his more new cases" lie.
They say there's place that is hotter
than this, where the dead-and-
gone liars abide;
Where, with Satan as chef. in that
grillroom below, they are roasted
and toasted and fried;
But they'll need much more heat in
that tire-llt land to seorch or to
bring forth a sigh
From this leather-skinned Yellow Fe-
yer Liar, With mis- more new

IMMIGRATION AND
DEPORTATION,
;s;s = a. q & 4 & & e
New Orleans States.

More than one million immigrants
reached the shores of the United States
during the fiscal year, which ended
ON the S0th day of last June, and was
the largest immigration in one year
ever known. Austria-Hungary sent us
275, 693. Italy 2S1,479, Russia 194,S9f,
Great Britain 1S7,057, and the Seandi'
Eavian countries 60,626. The treasury
department tas given out figures show
ing t1at the total number OF impi-
grants arriving in the United States
since 1890 has been 22,9S2 500, and in
all justice 1t must be satd that the
ir.arvelous development OF the United
States mas in large measure heen due
to the industry Of these home-seekeTs
from the Old World, hence when the
restriction of immigration is taken up
Ey congress care must be observed
that only undesirable and unworthy
Iyeople are denied admission to this
country. There is still an abundance
of room for the honest and haFd-work-
ing class, because they are the ma
terial out of which good citizens are
made and who contribute much TO the
wealth of the nation.
Our contemporary, the Charleston
News and Courier, has been studying
the immigration figures carefully and
has reached the conclusion that while
good and industrious white people
should be welcomed to this country,
there would be cause for rejoicing If
at the same time the negroes in this
country, who cannot be assimilated,
could be deDorted to AfTica's coral
strands, whence they come, because
they will be the occasion of offense as
long as they remain in this country.
The fact that more than a million
immigrants were brought to the United
States last year by the ordinary means
Ct transportation only proves the con-
tention we have long made that it
would be possible in the course of
eight or ten years, without straining
the transport aticn facilities to remove
from the United States to their ances-
trail country the negroes who are here
and their natural increase during the
next decade. The racial solution of
the negro problem is deportation"
The TACT cannot be disputed, and
there are a great many persons who
agree with our Christian contempoFz
airy. that the only practical solution
of the great race problem lies in de-
portation, but unfortunately it is a
Di2n that has not yet won the approval
of the American people, and will never
be seriously considered until 1t does.
