Nit for John n.

SPOKANE, Wash, July a.
Help save everything except Rookie
fellers prosperity" were the words
shouted on all sides during a fire
at Pullman, Wash, south of Spo-
kane, when $4,000 worth of build
ings were destroyed by a blaze which
originated in a warehouse early this
morning. The flames spread rapid
ly to the Standard Oil company's de-
pository, and when volunteers were
called to take the barrels and casks
of oil out of the burning building
they stood back, a number express
ing the hope that all the trust COM
panys property would be destroyed.
The Standards loss is placed at $10.-
600, the chief item being the explo-
sion of a tank containing 10000 gal
Ions of oil. The detonation broke
windows in various parts of the
town and the blazing oil covered the
river. The fire was discovered by
L. E. Wenham, editor of the Pull
man Tribune, who assisted the vol
unteers in fightin gthe flames. The
losses on the other buildings is GOV.
cred by insurance.

FEARS OUT OF SIGHT.
Washington Travellers Into British
Columbia Not Troubled.

The Canadian government has lift
ed the quarantine against passengers
travelling from this state into British
Columbia and travellers will no long.
er be compelled to prove their vac
cination before getting into Canad-
ian territory.
A quarantine against several
American sections. particularly di-
rected at travellers from the north
ern part of W1hatcom county where
smallpox has been reported, has been
in existence for several months,
states a west side report The Ca
madam immigration officials had the
report that much smallpox existed in
the northern part of Washington and
adopted stringent regulations to pre-
vent its Introduction into Canada.
Travellers going into Canada have
been compelled 70 either show vac
cination results, If coming from af-
fected districts, or that they weI e
not exposed to the contagion.
Danger of the spread of small poX
was feared by the Canadian health
authorities from the second class

e. st class travel. which. as a rule, is
not brought into contact with tue
smallpox cases.
Railroad men complain that steam
ship companies have been making
an effort to divert the travel to wa
ter lines on the ground that only rail-
road passengers were subjected TO in
quiry by the Canadian authorities.
The effort has been made to show
the railroads enforced the regula-
tons. but all the orders on the quar-
aatine have been issued and enforc-
ed by the Canadian health officials.
In lifting the quarantine the Can
adam government has removed any
inconvenience in the travel. particu-
larly by rail, between points on this
side of the line and British Column
bia cities.

About Glass Eyes.

"The commercial reports do not
give quotations of glass eyes," says
an Olive street optician, "but II they
did they would probably state the
demand as steady, with liberal Offer
ings. The oculist and surgeons take
out a good many eyes nowadays, for
an injury to one eye il allowed to
go untreated, soon affects the nerve
of the other, and total blindness is
often prevented by a timely removal
of a part or the whole of the injured
eyeball.
"Glass eyes. however. are now so
perfectly made that the remaining
eye can be exactly matched in color
and shade. and If a portion of the
eyeball has even been left the glass
optic can be fitted so exactly that 1t
viii move with the other, and many
people wear glass eyes without the
fact being suspected.
"A glass eye usually lasts from
six months to a year, then the Sc
cretions of the eye partly dissolve
the glass and roughen it's surface
so that it irritates the interior OF the
eye and must be replaced by new
article, smooth enough to prevent
friction. People generally take out
their glass eyes at night and place
them in a cup of clear water. This
lengthens the life Of the optic, but,
sooner or later, all become rough
and must be discarded. There are
different grades of eyes, some. of
course. being much more expensive
than others. but cheap glass eyes
are like other cheap things. They
do not pay.''-St. Louis Globe-Dem-
ocrat.

NO TUNNEL FOR THE

Sniveiy In response to an article in

is said that the plans of the road
may be changed owing to the extern

Attorney Snively brands the story
of the Spokane paper as untrue claim
ing that the road would by no means
have carried on its extensive litiga-
tions for the last year and a half
and then back down to such an ex-
tensive proposition as tunneling
through the hills near Union Gap.
The old plan of operating the road
by the Northern Pacific will be ad-
hered to 1t is stated.

WEDNESDAY, JULY "a, 1907.
THE STATE FAIR.

The twelfth annual exhibition Of
the state fair is announced for North
Yakima during the week of Septem-
Der 20 to IS. The commission has
issued an elaborate premium list,
Offering numerous prizes on more
than one thousand enumerated pro-
ducts of the soil or handiwork of
men and women. New buildings are
in process of erection, and many fea-
lures of interest are promised visi-
tors to the fair this year. A member
of the commission has been sent out
to deliver special invitations to all
counties, cities and commercial or
CARNATIONS to make exhibits of var
ious kinds. 1t is planned to have the
best fair ever held in the state.
Many things contribute to the
probable success of the state fair
this coming autumn. The legisla-
ture recognized the institution at it's
last session by appropriating 10000
for two years. That is double the
amount of former appropriations,
and sufficient to insure the paying
of good premiums Tor exhibits. 1t
should stimulate the farmers, fruit
growers. dairymen and poultry fam
ciers to make creditable displays.
1t should cause every prominent
dealer in agricultural machinery to
make an exhibit. dnabove all it
should bring to the people the real
iZation of the fact that the fair is a
state institution.
The state fair is the proper place
for introducing the producer and
consumer. 1t is the time for ex-
changing views on the market sit
uation. 1t follows the harvest sea-
son and comes before the dates for
disposing of much of the farm pro-
duce Every community having
good display at the fair receives
proportionate ambount of advertis-
ing that otherwise would be over
looked. An exhibit is therefore
good investment for the individual
and for the community. Washing
ton has varied soil and climatic
most every crop adapted to the tenn
perate and semi-tropical countries.
If the many localities would exhi-
bit products of irrigation, dry farm
ing and rain-bet cultivation, there
would be an interesting series of OBJ
ject lessons.
But the commercial and social
sides of the fair do not constitute all
the arguments in its favor. There is
the patriotic feature that should not
be neglected Our state is one of the
largest divisions of the country. 1t
is comparatively new and undevelop-
ed. There are opportunities in ev-
cry county for hundreds of home
seekers of independence Those who
are making successes in the different
branches of soil husbandry should
take pride in revealing the facts to
prospective homeseekers. The state
fair is one of the places where new
corners may learn something of inter-
est about the products and the peo-
pie now making up the population of
the state.

OPENS THE WAY FOR MURDER.

Widespread and emphatic as has
been newspaper depreciation of ap-
peals TO the 'unwritten law" juries
are still found which give weight to
this most dangerous form of defense
when mnrderers are on trial. Two
recent instances are just now the
subject of denunciatory comment. AZ
La Plata, Md, the other day, the
Bowies, mother and son, were ac-
quilted for the murder of young Po-
sey, who had been charged with the
ruin of Miss Bowie In Virginia,
about the same time. Judge Loving,
accused of the murder of his daugh-
ter's alleged assailant, was discha g
ed In both cases the killing was
admitted, but justification was claim
ed under the "unwritten law"
Yet, as showing the Inconsistency
of those who uphold this principle,
eviden, e was not allowed to be in
troduced to prove the truth or fall
sity of the charge against the vic
tins of the murderers. Ii was alleg-
ed by the defense and accepted by
the juries that the slayers had been
tod certain things which so affecte
their minds that they were excusa-
BILE for taking human life. 1t was
the same defense as in the Harry
Thaw case. II has been proven that
the stories told by the girls in any
of these cases are true, but the Bowie
and Loving juries said that the effect
of those stories justified murder.
Mark the distinction. 1t was not
because he avenged the honor of his
daughter that Judge Loving was ac-
quilted under the "unwritten law,
but because, with a mind weakened
by a long career of hard drinking,
he had been afflicted with brain
storm" on being told by her of the
alleged assault. In reality this is
a perversion and not a true applica-
tion OF the "unwritten law" The
Kansas City Journal views the situa.
ton in this light:
THE principle thus established in
these two trials, if carried to its logi-
cal conclusion, completely nullifies
the protection Of life guaranteed un-
der the constitution. Any man would
be justified in Staying another on
the flimsy testimony of any hyster:-
cal woman who might be inspired
by mere personal hatred of a man
10 secure his death in this easy fash
ion. The principle admits of form
of conspiracy that may become quite
popular. Should a husband and wife
have cause TO hate another man. all
the first man has to do is to go and
