WHAT OUR FATHERS READ ABOUT
IN THIS PAPER FIFTY YEARS AGO

(FrOm the Warrington Standard for
December 20, 1853. Vol. Nv, No. ~
Mr.. Bradshaw has shown us let
ter from Jared s. Brown, Esq, deputy
United States marshal, written from
nouncing the total destruction of Port
Angeles by a torrent of water which
burst upon it suddenly from ravine
in the rear Of the town. The calamity
occurred on Wednesday evening about
6 o'clock. The first intimation which
the residents had of the danger was
a rushing, roaring sound proceeding
from the gorge and, looking in that d.
rection, they saw great body of wa
ter several feet in height, bearing up
on it's surface or sweeping before it
logs, trees and stumps. Before they
could even realize their danger the
flood was upon and over the greater
part of the town. The custom house, a
large two-story structure, stood ex-
actly in the path of the vast torrent,
and was overturned and swept away
in a moment Of the three occupants
in it at the time, DR.. Gum, the col
lector, was the only one who escaped.
= The accident is supposed to
have been caused by the late rains
melting the ice and snow in the noun
tains and causing avalanches into the
lakes at the foothills which were then
overflowed and rushing down the gorge
carried everything before them.
Married at Tumwater, December %,
by Rev. c. G. Belknap, Mr.. Clanrick
Crosby, Jr., and Miss Martha T. Ward.
(Note-Practically all of this issue
is taken up with the message submit
ted to Congress December 8, 1868, by
President Abraham Lincoln.)

IL TOLD you so"

During the consideration of the ad-
ministration currency bill III both
houses of Congress and almost UP 10
the moment of its final passage in the
senate, bitter criticism of it was made
by bankers all over the country, and
yet the bill had hardly been passed by
the senate before national banks in all
parts of the country rushed to tele-
graph the secretary of the treasury in
formal applications to become parts of
the new system it creates and bankers
everywhere offered the opinion that
the measure established a financial
and currency plan much superior to
the one hitherto in vogue, expressed
the highest confidence in the measure
and stated that it was highly satisfac
tory.
We know it is not considered to be
in good taste to say Il told you So"
but the instance here is so pronounced
when you read the interviews with Sc
attic, Tacoma and Portland bankers
published on another page, when you
think of the keen rivalry that has
sprung up between the banks of Seat.
tie and Portland to get one of the re-
gional banks for their respective city,
and when you think of the lengths to
which the bankers went to discredit
the bill before it's passage, that we
cannot refrain from calling attention
to our recent editorials predicting just
such an outcome. 1t was only few
weeks ago that in convention assem-
bled they declared 1t would ruin the
country; now they are falling all
over themselves in praising it and in
