The "Glad Hand"

If we ever go to Olympia to live we
are going to trade at Scots Grocery.
1t seems to us it must be good place
to trade. We have seen more or less of
the OLYMPIA STANDARD for six years,
and have never seen q copy that did
not contain the advertisement of Scott 8
larly before the public soliciting its bus
mess and proclaiming its Open-and-
above.board methods finally wins ones
confidence, even if he does happen to
live a long way off. Wen bet Scots
Grocery Store is place where you al
ways feel welcome, where the clerks are
polite, where they are willing to rectify
little blunderS. and the goods are fresh,
staple and dependable. In short, we are
ready to bet scott is a good business
man, whom everybody likes.
The above paragraph is copied from
the last issue of the Mount Vernon
Herald. 1t shows how far-reaching
is the advertising in this paper, and
it is safe to say that if the Herald-
man should ever move to the capital
we feel quite sure that he would grav-
itate to this popular grocery as reg
ular customer. While there are many
other persistent advertisers in the
STANDARD, it is no disparagement to
them that this Mr.. SCOTS should at.
tract friend Sears from the fact that
his stock is of the nature that ap-
peals to the inner man through the
irresistible cravings of appetite.

What the Census Forecasts.

y summary from the statistical de-
pGrtmrnt at Washington gives the
assurance Of a general gam OF pOpu
lat.on throughout the country. EX
Guiding the large cities. of which the
work has not Yet been calculated to
arrive at correct estimate the bu-
rtau has already made public figures
concerning enough localities to indi-
cate clearly certain Interesting trends
in the growth Of American population.
In reality. the Census BLreau is
Publishing the work rapidly all along
the line, bat it is being carried for
ward 50 uniformly as affecting all
parts OF the country. that, though
the end is close at hand, so far com
p.cte returns have been made in only
one State, and complete returns from
particular comtieS and cities in only
tw"uty-three States.
What stands out first is. OF course,
the general increase in population all
over the country. While this growth
is perhaps more striking in the Mid
die West, or even in the far West,
the Fast is but little behind those
sections.
All along the line are increases in
city populations. Rarely do these
fall below 20 per cent for the last ten
years. Often the increase is in eX-
cess of 80 per cent.
Thus Bridgeport, Conn, shows a
growth Of 43.7 per cent in the last
ten years, while in the Middle West,
Kansas City has made gain of 51.7
per cent, and at the other end of the
country, Sacramento has grown 52.6
per cent in the same time.
But this growth has been expected
There will, however, be some surprise
to find how far the growth of the cities
exceeds the increased population of
the rural districts. Here, save in a
few localities. the increase generally
is below 10 per cent. in counties al
ready listed and rarely does the in
crease reaches the 20 per cent. that is
practically the minimum for city in
creaSeS.

THE BEST Books. Rev. Frank
Genesaulus, President of the Armour
Institute of Technology, who de-
livered the 18th convocation address
of the University Of Chicago. lately,
in addressing the "a students, who
received degrees, named Ave books
which he considered absolutely es-
sential for liberal education, as fol-
lows: Shakespeare, Holy Bible, a
Life of Washington, Pilgrims Prog.
ress, and the Constitution of the
United States. 1t should be noted
in this connection. that these books
should be stored in the head OF their
owner rather than on q bookshelf.
Pres. Emeritus Eliot, of Harvard, it
will be noted started this idea of the
best books, but his list embraced q
" five-foot SHELF" which would ex-
tend the list considerably.

ELEVATOR BOYS SETTLE A MoOTED
QUESTION. -The elevator operatives
constitute the top-sheaf of the bust
ness combine. 1t is not a matter of
wages or hours, either, but something
more sensible, we think. No ques-
ton has been more unsettled than
what constitutes the first or

called by both designations, whether
on the surface or in a basement. At
Spokane, the Independent Order of
Elevator Operators has just decreed,
that the lower elevation shall be
known as Spokane, and the base
ment designated as basement" and
the first step from Spokane" as
" First Floor" They may find, how
ever, that it is one thing to resolve,
and quite another to teach.

THE JOINT COUNTY FAIR.

All of ThurstOn County, Tenino
and Olympia were represented at
the Fair Meeting in the Commercial
Club rooms, Saturday Afternoon. at
2 p. NJ, on the Both inst.
President Harry l.. Parr, of the
Commercial Club. called the meeting
to order and then asked for the NOM
nations for chairman of the meeting.
Mr.. Fred Lewis nominated Mr.. &.
f. Marvin as chairman of the meet
ing. The motion was seconded and
carried Mr.. Parr was elected as Sec
rotary of the meeting
The proposition of a county fair
was then discussed and all were in
favor of holding it this fall. Mr.. Fred
Lewis said he had given the matter
considerable thought and believed
fair should be held. THE South
western Washington Fair" said Mr..
Lewis will only touch small
portion of the residents of Thurston
county. We want county fair to ad-
vertise ourselves at home. The people
ought to get better acquainted with
each other and learn what each of us is
doing. Olympia. Mr.. Lewis thought,
was the ideal and central place for
a county fair.
Mr.. Guerin. q newcomer, also
spoke. He said Il am stranger in
this country but a yearly fair is q
good educator and the farmer and
producer ought to get together
at least once year. | will soon be

decided that next Saturday after

and the Commercial Club, would be

Mr.. Bryan seems to be retaliating
by reading out of the party the Dem

William Lorrimer to the U. S. SEN

proceeding for reputation of Mr..

we have to say of the latter proceed

PUBLIC OFFICE A SOFT SNAP.
now the POstmasters will go to Ev-
erett to attend an annual convention
for arranging betterments of the
postal service. This consists, ac-
cording to the Recorder, OF recon-
mending longer vacations for clerks
and carriers, and an occasional boost
to salaries, as occasion may warrant.
This has been placed on q sliding
scale. so far as the principal pod
heads are concerned, but the subor.
dinates need an occasional boost. p"
1t is announced that our local Nasty
goes to convention fully impressed
with the idea that annual vacations
should be heightened to 30 days in
stead of half that time. The pay of
IS per day is deemed sufficient, with
time at lib. to fish and hunt, so this
will probably remain as it is for the
present.

REPORTS from the devastated dis
tricts of the country show that the
damage was greater than was first
estimated last week. 1t is now be-
lieved that the damage to crops and
property will amount to over 81, 000.-
900. At Huntsville, KY, the big
stone bridge in the western part of
the city, which had stood the floods
for fifty-two years, gave way and it
will cost the city thousands of dol
lars to replace it. In the flooded dis
trict rural mail carriers were unable
to make their trips owing to absence
of bridges. Crops in Blackford
Greek bottoms are a total loss, the
creek being higher by three feet than
was ever known before. Houses
along the creek were flooded and &C.
cupants had to flee TO the hills.
These conditions in Kentucky are
but repetition of those of the sur
rounding States, and the loss from
flood and storm has been everywhere
severe.

Now IS the time when the country
new spapermen are receiving letters from
men they do not know, and possibly
never heard OF stating that the writer is
a candidate for some state office and any
aid the editor can bestow will be greatly
appreciated. Yes, no doubt it would.
On the other hand, any aid the politi
clans can bestow upon the editor to re-
cnmpense him for the space used in his
paper would be appreciated. Ii the poll
iiicianS went to advertise their business
why in Sam Hill don't they include a
check in good faith for the amount OF
advertising they desire, and send along

Talk about business. If their is any
business in a newspaper men giving
away his space any more than a mer-
chant giving away good, we are unable
to see where it comes in.-Ephrdtd JOundt.
This paragraph has the true ring
of honesty and sincerity, and empha
sizes the fact that the main result OF
the primary election is to facilitate
and promote still another sort of
graft, whereby a candidate is impelled
to toOt his own praises through a
horn borrowed from his neighbor. 1t
affords some satisfaction to announce

Some of our people are dreading an

special significance, however, being
generally due from forest fires, vol

sometimes from a double stratum of

The gubernatorial contests in some
of the States are of q more than or
dinarily interesting character. The
elections in others will be of a purely
perfunctory character, the election
of the Republican or the Democratic
candidate, as the case may be, being
a foregone conclusion. Socialists
and PrOhibitionists will have candi-
dates for Governor in a majority OF
the States, and in some of them they
are expected to poll considerable
vote. The late appreciation OF vote
of the latter organization makes it
difficult to forecast possible trends
of that nature. Lightning is said to
sometimes strike from cloudless sky.
But greater than all other causes
combined as a Presidential factor
may be regarded the present disqui'
etude in the party in power. 1t re-
quires but a few such episodes as
happened last week in New York. to
cause the vision of Belshazzar to be
outlined On the political wall, and it
is very probable that it will be
Roosevelt's hand which does the
writing.
Should a general election take
place next month it is the general
consensus of opinion that the Demo
Gratis would win, and the present
feud and strife among Republicans
seems so well started, that some
comfort may be drawn from the as
surance in the old adage that Rev
Olutions seldom turn backwards.
