Modern research lends color to the
belief that the ancient Egyptians
knew that rats transmitted the
plague and other diseases, and the
great value of cats in destroying rats.
thereby checking epidemics. And
this in all probability led to the
high esteem in which cats were held
and the divine honors sometimes paid
them. It is great pity that the
modern Hindu does not have the
same esteem for the cat. but sc
superstitious are they that large
numbers of them will not keep cats.

man than his successful opponent.
who was delegate to the Republican
state convention which adopted the
local option plank and who previous
to his nomination. in a published
announcement of his candidacy.
declared himself squarely in favor OF
the local option principle. Just prior
to the election. however, the league.
or Mr.. Royal ". Raymond, who
seems to be about the "whoIe thing
in the league, demanded, as the price
of its more or less valuable endorse
ment. that the candidates pledge
themselves to support the Identical
local option bill prepared by the
league and in general, as we under
stand it. to support whatever legisla'
tion bearing upon the liqour question
the league might see at to ask for.
Some candidates were foolish enough
to tie themselves up to Mr.. Raymond
in this manner but Mr.. BuRge Wal
not. The same game was tried in
Jefferson and Clallam counties. but
it was not effective in either.
