capacity in the different sections of the exposition
and fair The proposed board of judges, as an
nounced by the congress authorities, will be of
the most notable and distinguished ever officiating
at an agricultural exposition in the west.
The premium list for the exposition will be pre-
pared about March l, and will be placed in the
hands of the farmers at once, in order that pros
pective exhibitors may have full opportunity to
take advantage of the coming season to select the
best samples of their crops for display at Spokane.
1t is expected that this will result in making the
Washington display at the coming exposition the
finest ever presented by the farmers of this state.
The campaign to spread the dry farming propa-
ganda throughout the state will include personal
letters to farmers in every part of Washington
telling them about the congress and what it is do
ing for the northwest. The secretary is now
assembling the names of the farmers of the state
for this purpose
Speakers will be sent to different parts of the
state during the coming months to address the
people on the subject The secretary has received
number of invitations from oranges and farm
ers' unions to address them. The commercial
bodies throughout the state will be asked to CO.
operate with the congress in arranging for meet
ings of farmers and others interested in the de-
velopment of the northwest

In consideration of his truthfulness, honor, in
tegrty and benefcient republican leadership since
quitting the democrats, the Rev. Ananas E. an
nounces that he has been ndorsed by his fellow
workers as follows: W. A. Diggins, Will H. En-
glish G.. A. Wells, G. H. Wilbur, Ira D. Brown.
These gentlemen are credited with the statement
that Veatch Stands for the right on all questions
and at all times, " which is throwing a somewhat
lengthy harpoon into the many honest people who
vote the democratic ticket, who do not believe in
crooked politics lodging from one side to the other
on the liquor question or in assang and browbeat-
ing citizens through newspaper without the
courage to face these citizens on the street. 1t is
interesting to know that these five ministers of the
gospel in Covile are opposed to the Taft Cannon
Aldrich policy, and it speaks we'll for the efforts
of the democratic press in state and nation to know
that the clergy is becoming educated to the fact
that those who voted the republican ticket last fall
were indorsing the most corrupt administration in
the history of this nation.
Commencing Feb. Is rural free delivery carriers
will not be required by the postal authorities to
collect loose coins from rural mail boxes according
to the order sent out by the fourth assistant post
master general. Patrons are instructed to enclose
all coins of this nature in an envelope wrap them
securely in piece of paper or deposit them in
coin-handling receptacle so they may be easily
taken from the boxes. Carriers will be required
to lift such coins and, where accompanied by mail
for dispatch, attach the stamps. Rural carriers
are greatly bothered by people who persist in plac-
ing loose coins in the mail boxes. This is especial
ly true where two families use the same mail box.
One family may place a letter in the box accom-
panied by coin for the postage The other fam
lily may do likewise, and either of them may be
short on postage The result is that the carrier is
at loss to know which money belongs to which
and he is forced to leave both the letters and the
postage in the boxes.
Small girl-Why doesn't baby talk, father?"
Father-He can't talk yet, dear. Young babies
never do.
Small girl-Oh. yes, they do. Job did. Nurse
read to me out of the Bible how Job cursed the day
he was born!
