THE injunction to those aspiring
to carry the big stick was, to walk
stealthily and softly. Then again,
the wisdom supposed to be embodied
in old saws is relegated to a past age
Roosevelt fairly stamps with rage at
times, once, it will be remembered
while brandishing his big stick be
fore the eyes of Gen. Miles and his
strident notes pierced the ears OF
several Congressman who witnessed
the disgraceful scene in the White
House, couple of years ago, simply
because the General of the. U. S
Army had complimented Admira
Schley for his gallantry at Santiago
when the President thought The
honors belonged to Admiral Samp
son.

IT seems poor use, indeed, to be
made of one of our monitor warships,
to have her pounded to pieces by one
of her sister ships, with Pinch guns
and torpedo boats, but that was

TALK about the French being an
excitable people. Oh, no; no more.
The people of our State have been
fairly Wild over warships this
week. Thousands of people can find
money to go" under the stimulus
of excitement, who stand off" their
rent or butcher bills. The mail deliv-
cry service may become demoralized
by substitution of new and inexperi-
cnced carriers, but the people have
no right to complain over the inter.
polation of additional holidays" now
and then in this service; this time,
it is to see the big fghting-machines
though the people who remain a,
home go without their mail for DAYS
at a time. AS some compensation,
it has afforded chance for a favored
few to make money, and we must OF
course, grin and bear it,"

OF no consequence, it is now def
nitely settled that Prince Halle dc
Sagan and Anna Gould were married
by Justice of the Peace in Hoboken
New Jersey, April 10th. 1t was by
their request that he has delayed fiji

the fine is only $50, and he received

A RADICAL DIFFERENCE OF OPIN-
ION.-SOcialiSt orators have visited
Olympia and proclaimed from the
platform that Socialism is an eco
nomic question and does not concern
religion. Cathrein. the Jesuit writer
of scholastic ability. observes that
the Catholic Church cannot con-
sistently accept the tenets of Social
ism, because they are based upon the
Darwinian theory of evolutionary
development. Dietzgen, promi-
nent German Socialist author, says
that mans morals and religion are
determined from the material plane
on which he stands, and are there
fore evolutionary, that the comrades
who contend otherwise are dan

ONLY \ SUGGESTION. 1t is reported
that there is a movement on foot at
Walla Walla for active measures to-
wards adopting the Galveston Com
mission plan of municipal govern
mcnt. Now that the President has
set the example of calling the Gov
errors together TO consider economic
questions, why might it not be well
for Gov. Mead to call a convention
of the Mayors of the cities and towns
in the State, at some time in the near
future. to consider needed reforms in
municipal affairs? BY this means.
the proposed plan might be fully
considered, not only with regard to
Walla Walla, but with reference to
the needs of all municipalities in Our
new and growing State.
