Writing of Western Washington
some twelve or fifteen years ago, Col.
Robert 6. Ingersol, the brilliant in
fidel orator and author, said: "Truly
Puget Sound is an emigrant's Eden.
Every spot is garden and every gar

Of all kinds. Every fruit ia luscious

in the pltiless mantle Of white and

hooks; where the hand of the farmer
is practically paralyzed by the ice
and frost and he sits restless and fret
full for the return of spring that he
can begin his planting. all is different

TWO BROTHERS OF THE QUILL

An Omaha dispatch few days ago
told of the arrest there of Col. VIM.
Lightfoot Visscher for shooting po-
liceman who was taking him to the
police station while in half crazed
condition, as the result of prolonged
pree. Eighteen years ago Col. Viss-
scher was one of the best known jour-
nalists in this state. He was bril-
liant writer of both prose and verse
and was a popular platform speaker.
Though grand army veteran he owed
his title of "colonel'' to his appoint
ment on the staff of Governor Ferry.
the states first governor. He helped
to organize the Grand Army post in
Fairhaven, which was named in honor
of one of his comrades arms, who
was a private soldier about whom Col.
Visscher told story that touched the
hearts of the veterans who met to or
ganize the post.
In 1891 the present editor and pub
Usher of Che islander succeeded Col.
Visscher as editor of the Failhaven
Daily Herald. Two years later he
met the colonel in Chicago and was
invited to dine with him at the rooms
of the Chicago Press Club. where he
met the colonel's warm personal
friend and literary collaboration, Opie
Reid, the we'll known southern jour-
nalist and novelist, about whom an
amusing story was then told.
Some years after the civil war Mr..
Reid published country paper"
in Arkansas. Business having fallen
into state of "inocuous desuetude"
he felt impelled to move and applied
to the traffic manager of the raiload
upon which he wished to ship his
plant to pass the outfit, or at least
give a considerably reduced rate.
The railroad man professed not to
have heard of the paper or of its edi-
tor and he accordingly made some in
quiries as to the papers circulation
and influence. "You want to know
where it gees, sub? Well. sub, it goes
everywhere-north, south, east and
west. and for the past year, sub, l
have had hard time of it. sub, to
keep it from going to hi subj"
Col. Visscher's friends In this
state. and there are many of them,
notwithstanding his deviation from
the straight and narrow way, are glad
to learn that the plucky policeman
whom he shot will recover and that
"Vissch" is in no immediate danger
of wearing hangman's moose In lieu
I of necktie. It is indeed pity that
the water wagon has no permanent at
fractions for him.

Prohibition is to be used in the
South to settle the negro question;
and the good sense, the morality and
the ethics OF the nation applaud il
as about one million per cent better

been long tried and always found I'M.
successful.

The islander doubts very much If
poor packing had anything to do with
the recent rejection Of a large guam
tity of Orcas island apples at San
Francisco. as has been intimated.
Orcas fruit growers can pack apples
just as we'll as the orchardists of Wen
atchee, Yakima, or Walla Walla.
There are several young men and a
number of ladies on the island who
are expert packers.

The Detroit Free Press says there
are no straps on the water wagon.
That explains why 20 many passengers
fall Of before going very far.

INCREASE OF TENANT FARMING

lNChEAOE VC 1ENANA "A hmINU
significant summary of facts
bearing upon the question OF aRricul
tural landlordism and tenant farming
in the United States has just been
given in the Popular Science Month
ly" by Professor Homer G. Price, of
Ohio State University. Eight years
ago more than thirty five farms out
of every one hundred we're operated
by tenants, while %. 8 per cent of all
farm lands Ii. e.. both developed and
undeveloped acreage) was rented to
transient occupants. Rural landlord
ism is thrice as prevalent in this
Gland of economic freedom as in
over populated Germany and statistics
taken today would probabIy show that
the high tenancy rate of France
(47.2 per cent) is almost if not quite
equalled. Commenting upon the
statements made by Prof. Price, the
truth of which it does not question,
the New York Tribune Farmer says:
"When it is considered that the rela-
tive number of tenants has been in
creasing in spite of the millions of
acres taken up annually for forty
years in homestead grants, the mag
nitude of this economic transforma
tion becomes still more impressive. ;"
The "OptImists Club of America
is the name of a new organization
which ought to have an enormous
membership. The club invites every
man to join who can smile in the face
of trouble and pass the smile along.
The platform. thousands of copies of
which have been printed in circular
form and sent out from New York, is
headed by the following:
"Twixt optimist and pessimist
The difference is droll;
The optimist sees the doughnut,
The pessimist the hole.''
The commissioners of Island coun-
ty at their meeting Jan. refused to
grant any liquor license at Coupeville,
the county seat. thus making it a "dry
town, sin compliance with the wishes
of majority of the people. expressed
by petition. The action Of the board
is fine advertisement both for the
town and the county. It would be
we'll if every board of commissioners
