WE SHOULD CATCH SOME OF
THEM.

A dispatch from Sioux Falls Iowa,
states that two hundred farmers with
their families will leave there about
June l to seek homes in the state Of
Washington. Their objective point is
Yakima, but as they have not yet pur-
chased homes, there is no reason why
some Of them could not be switched off
for the Walla Walla valley if proper in
ducements were held out. Perhaps
most of them are looking for irrigated
tracts, but as they know nothing of ir-
rigation in Iowa, the state from which
these homeseekers are to come, they
would readily purchase land not re-
quiring irrigation to produce profitable
crops. Any who have their hearts set
on irrigated land could be accommo-
dated at Gerdena or in the Wallula dis
trict.
The Commercial club and the Fifty
Thousand club should appoint joint
committee to meet these immigrants al
Spokane or at some point farther east
and point out to them the advantages
of the Walla Walla valley as a place
OF residence and for the successful pur-
suit of agriculture and horticulture
Land in Walla Walla county is nc
higher in price than in the Yakima val
ley, and the Iowa farmer can take his
choice Of farming in his accustomed
way without irrigation or with 1t, &C.
cording to the part of the county in
which he may locate.
If the population Of Walla Walla
county Is to be increased to any con.
siderable extent in the next few years
such opportunities to get share OF
the desirable immigration from east
ern states should not be neglected by
our booster organizations. Farmers
who locate here now will be rich
enough to retire by 1910, and they will
then come to Walla Walla and hell
swell our population to fifty thousand

ton is only too often followed by imi-
tation on the part Of the reader, as the
facts Of everyday life abundantly at
test.
Much of the current literature of
today is calculated to glorify vice and
bring virtue into contempt, Praise is
bestowed for conduct that deserves the
severest censure. An essentially VIC
ious character is dressed up in the
gaudy flnery of fiction, so as to seem
envia.ble in the eyes of the young and
unreflecting. The standard of morality
is debased, If not entirely perverted.
The lower instincts triumph over the
higher and nobler, and passion rules
where reason and judgment should
hold sway.

becomes worse, so that there is little
hope Of prolonging SO precious a life"
The very evening of the Saturday on
which this appeared the great heart,
which for nearly half a century had
bled for his countrys wrongs, had
ceased to beat, and in a strange 1tal-
ian city, far from the land which he.
so dearly loved, and the people who
were devoted to him, and whose ever
lasting gratitude he had earned by the
immense privileges that he had won
for them by the power Of his elo-
quence: remote from his dearest
friends the great liberator lay dead.

fender of the rights of Ireland will be

will take place the solemn obsequies

dele Vigne." AS there is no further
notice to be found in the local press
descriptive Of the sad and imposing
ceremony in the Beautiful church in
the Piazza detle Svigne, I'VE can only
let our imagination wander back to
see the immense throng Of faithful
who, knowing now what great man,
and a fervehS,' devoted son Of the
church had pissed away in their
midst, have GONE to do the last hon
ors to his mftdal remains, and to pray
for the eternal repose Of his soul.
What passed after this is beyond the
scope of this sketch, which is intend
ed only to depict the events which
happened here TN Genoa, touched in
with local coloring drawn from nature,
and with the assistance Of such local
press notices OF the period as I could
