those of Denver Dec. 8, on the rejuve-
nation Of silver as medium of financial
exchange.
Mr. Frewen will be remembered as one
Of the worlds most ardent advocates Of
bilnetallism during its discussion in the
United States ten years ago.
He Is said never to have abandoned
the belief that eventually all nations must
again adopt the double standard, and to
have equipped himself with data at this
time which proves bimetallism is the only
Safeguard against an ultimate worlds
financial catastrophe.
He landed in San Francisco few days
ago en- route to England from the orient,
being on world tour in this cause. .-Ex.
That the future prosperity of this min
ing camp depends alone on the working
Of the Trade Dollar property is mistake
which some people have accepted as
fact. While the Trade Dollar company
has been a great producer and has EN-
ployed a number OF men, the camp pros
pered before the Trade Dollar company
came into existance and win do so again.
One by one the elements OF nature
are being legisiated into the control of
the corporations until it win be but a
short while until companies will be
found to furnish pure air for the inhab-
itants of this country. Already a scheme
has been proposed in Chicago TO pipe
pure air from the newly discovered
regions OF the north pole. The old saying
OF Trade follows the Flag will soon be
better known by "Graft follows the
Flag"
The campus of the University of Wash
ington is to become public park, under
the direction of the Seattle Park Board
A lease has been effected with the regents,
covering the period Of several years.
During this time the city will expend
$4,000 to maintain the landscape gar
dening features, which made the Alaska
Yukon Pacific Exposition grounds the
admiration of all visitors. Had the city
not stepped in, they would have been
lost. Later on, it is hoped that the
Legislature viii make provision to take
care Of the state property.
The fairy tales published concerning
the wonderful deposit of gold in the Jar
bridge camp are surely going it pretty
strong" We hope that even twentieth
part of what they claim is true, as even
then this newly discovered locality will
be one of the richest mining camps in
the world. Slowly but surely the pro-
gress of mining excitement from Southern
Nevada is coming toward Silver City,
the Mother camp of the west. A
mining engineer of much experience
while looking over this camp recently
said TO us IF the mines surrounding
Silver City were in Nevada they would
not lay idle very long"
From newspaper mans standpoint,
Lynden, Wn., seems to be the ideal place
to live and Dan Cloud is the luckiest of
all editors. The local commercial club
has just voted him substantial evidence
of its appreciation of bis efforts to boost
that locality, through the columns of The
Tribune. 1t is gener ally taken for grant
ed that that is part of an editors every
day routine. But the business men and
farmers of Lynden seem to be of another
stripe They wanted Editor Cloud to
know that they appreciated his work.
The result is that Lynden is going to
have better booster than ever before.
Other editors are equally deserving of
such recognition and the community that
grants it will be the gamer thousand
fold.
Monday afternoon young man by the
name of Martz, who had been drinking
pretty freely Of the beverage that makes
men "wild and wooly'' undertook to
take possession of the butcher shop of
this place and began abusing Fred Ulmer
in violent manner. Mr.. Ulmer object
ed and proceeded to put Martz' out of his
place of business when Martz threatened
to get gun and put daylight through
our accommodating butcher. But Fred
got his gun first and held the oficious
young man up when he was speedily
taken in charge by Sheriff Kreig and
taken to the county jail after some re-
sistance. By Tuesday morning he was
quite gentle and when released begged
Mr.. Ulmers pardon and said he would
never do so anymore.
