NOT A BLUFF" THIS TIME.

With work being carried on rapidly out on
Chambers Prairie and with all preparations being
made for the erection of the depot and the con
struction of the depot yards at Fourth and Adams
streets, Olynpans coming to realize that
there's no ''bluff'' about the railroad this time
and. dropping the skepticism forced on them by
their experiences of the past, are giving greater
confidence to the railroad announcements that
the new line will be in operation by the first of the
year.
There is not little satisfaction, from the ordi-
nary Oympian s view, to be found in the knowl-
edge that this is the only new line the Union
Pacific system is constructing in this state this
year. 1t certainly is convincing fact that this
great railroad company has confidence in the
future of this city, and perhaps plans which will
stimulate that future.

WHAT OUR FATHERS READ ABOUT :
IN THIS PAPER FIFTY YEARS AGO :


From The Washington Standard for
October 2. 1868. Vol. v. No. 4S.
The magnesium wire light is some
thing extraordinary in it's illuminat-
ing powers.
The length of the war-If we count
from the firing on FIT. Sumter, the
war lasted a few days over four years
and one month; but if we count from
the secession of South Carolina it
lasted four years and five months.
This summer has been a most
favorable season in this territory for.
all kinds of fruit and berries. Five
years ago fruit was rarity for which
our tongues continually watered,
with only now and then taste.
We understand there are SO tons
of barley shipped for this place from
San Francisco. These importations
we don't like to see-barley grows
we'll here and should be raised for
export.
The census returns in Rhode Island
show that nearly all the agricultural
towns, especially those in the western
part Of the state, are declining in
population.
In reference to the admission of
Southern representatives in congress
and the negro suffrage question, ne
gotiations are on foot to the effect
that If the Southern states will adopt
laws comforting the right of suffrage
on males without distinction of color,
who can read and write, the South
ern representatives shall be admitted.
The president has cleared his desk
of all pardon applications, having
granted nearly ten thousand pardons
within the past three days.
An overland camel company has
been organized in New York, with
the object of importing to this coun-
try and using among the Western
plains next summer a large number
of camels.

Land Exchange Two Years Job.

Present indications are that not
more than 400 of the 500 school Sec
lions in national forests will be cruis-
ed this year in connection with the
federal land exchange, according to
State Land Commissioner Clark v.
Savidge, who has charge of the work.
This will leave to be cruised next
year the remaining 400 state sections,
and about 500 federal sections, to be
taken in exchange. thus making it
unlikely that the work can be COM
pleted within the original time limit
of one year.

The editor Of the Toledo Messenger has already
groomed himself for the coming ARRAY. "Candi-
dates for Office are beginning to bob up he said
in an editorial in recent issue, "and one last
week sent to this Office long screed containing
his qualifications for the Office Of governor, with
a request that print all or part Of It. The
screed was consigned to the waste basket and ere
this to the flames. Candidates wanting their puffs
or boosts printed in the Messenger may secure
them at the regular advertising rates, less and
no other terms"

In the light of some highly edifying and en-
tightening editorials with which we have been
recently favored locally, the following comment
from the Enumclaw Herald is quite apropos :
"The Me-too press Of Western Washington is
wasting much space telling how the removal of
the tariff has hurt the numbering business. 1t is
politics for them to do that. On the other hand
at the government inquiry into conditions, the
president of the National Lumber Dealers asso-
citation testified that the slump in the lumber in
dustry dates back eight years, or while Theodore
Roosevelt was still president-six years before the
present tariff law went into effect

YOUR HAIR NEEDS
PARISIAN SAGE
1t Quickly Removes Dandruff,
Stops Falling Hair and
Scalp Itch.

Just because your hair is full of
dandruff thin, streaky, dull, and
never will do up to look pretty, do not
think it must be so. Beautiful hair,
thick, fluffy, lustrous and absolutely
free from dandruff is only a matter of
care. Hair is like plant-it needs at
tention to make it grow strong and
beautiful.
Partisan Sage is one of the most
helpful and invigoratinS tonics
known. Just one application stops
itching head, removes every trace of
dandruff, cleanses the hair and scalp
of all dust and excess oil. 1t goes
right to the hair roots, stimulating
them and furnishing the nourishment
that is needed-the hair becomes soft,
fluffy, abundant and radiant with life.
Partisan Sage not only saves the
hair and stimulates it to grow long and
heavy, but gives it an incompatible
gloss and beauty.
Get bottle from II. C. Kennedy,
or any drug or toilet counter. It's
not expensive and you cannot be dis
appointed with this delicately per-
fumed and helpful tonic, for even the
first application will give the hair
beauty and charm.-Advertisem

100000 Overcharges
Are Alleged by City
in Phila. Light Bid

Evidence. seeking to show cause
why the 1916 contract between the
Philadelphia Electric company and
the Quaker City should not be approx
ed was presented to the Public Ser
vice Commission, to-day.
Much of the morning session was
taken up with arguments between the
attorneys as to the roper method OF
procedure. william Draper Lewis
represented NJ. l.. Cooke ct al, who
in the name of the city, are fighting
the terms of the company and Fred
eric w. Fleitz for the light company.
After considerable argument Mr.
Lewis agreed to the approval of the
municipal light contract providing the
city should have recourse to the com
mission for the returning of excess
charges under the terms of the agree
ment.
w. A. Pike. chief of the Philadel-
phia electrical bureau, was the first
witness called. lie contended the
company should not charge more
than S65.91 for each arc light. The
present rate is SS1.21. The excess
charges are estimated at more than
100000. Mr. Pike recommended the
placing of four ampere magenite arc
lamps in the city instead of the pres
ent 6.6 ampere lights. He claimed
they would furnish better light at a
cost of S55.25 each and still give the
company a per cent. profit

and take n tablespoonful i'm a glass

this for two or three days. This will
