WHAT OUR FATHERS READ ABOUT ]
IN THIS PAPER FIFTY YEARS AGO ;

From The Washington Standard for
March 10, 1886. Vol. vi. No. 10.
The windows of the ladies' depart
ment in the Chicago postofiice are
now attended by young girls. This
change was made necessary by those
girls who, when calling for their let
ters, would persist in heightened con-
versations with the clerks.
Ten miles distant from Buffalo
some parties boring for oil have late
ly struck upon an immense fountain
of gas, suitable for lighting purposes.
We received call this week from
Quincy A. Brooks, Esq, the postal
agent for Oregon, Idaho and Wash
ington, who is upon an official visit
to this part of the country. Mr.. B.
was one of our pioneer settlers and
is we'll known to many of the early
residents Of this vicinity.
Semi-weekly communication on the
Sound.-The steamer Libby will ply
on the Sound between this place and
Port Townsend twice a week here
after, touching at way ports, leaving
Olympia every Tuesday and Saturday
morning. This arrangement will
prove great accommodation to
many of our people.
From a private telegram we learn
that P. D. Moore, Esq, arrived at
Washington severed days ago and the
object OF his mission has been
crowned with complete success.
In congress recently Mr.. Sumner
presented the petition of John A. An
drews and others, asking that a
change be made in electing the presi-
dent Of the United States SO as to
abolish electoral delegates and elect
by the popular vote. The house con-
Cured.

WASHINGTON IS
FASTEST GROWING
STATE IN UNION

Experts of the federal census
bureau this week estimated that
the population of the United
States on January last, was 101,-
20S,315, and that by July 1 it
would be 1O2,399,31S. Western
states led in growth, Washington
heading the list with Oklahoma,
Nevada, North Dakota and New
Mexico, following in the order
named. The bureaus estimates
are based on the rate of increase
between the 1900 and 1910 CEN
suses. According to these esti-
mates the state of Washington on
January / had a total population
of 1,502,632, and on July l next
it would have a population of L.
534,221, as against 1,471,O43 on
July 1, 1915, a gain of more than
$4,000 during the year.

There's whole great big long agricultural
sermon in the short item which appeared in the
county correspondence recently concerning the
purchase OF silos by five dairymen of the Mud Bay
district More silos were erected on Thurston
county farms last year than the county had be-
fore, but many more are needed to equip the farms
of this district fully and as efficiently as are
those of other darying sections of Western Wash
ington.

And at that, Hay didn't spring anything new
in this campaign letter of his in which he tried to
say that Listers administration has cost the people
of the state million dollars more than did his
own. That has been the game the Republican pol
iticians have played ever since Lister was inaugu-
rated. Whatever increase there has been has
come through appropriations by the two Repub-
ican legislatures during Listers term, in spite Of
his vetoes, and Hay knows it and the taxpayers
know it. Hay knows, too, and so do the taxpay-
ers that the budget Of expenditures of the depart
ments under Listers control has been lower than
for those same departments under Hay, and that
that for the Republican departments has been
higher The Republicans have planned and
schemed and legisated from the start to saddle
such an accusation Lister it will be interesting
to see whether they get away with it or not

revolt and declared that they ARE asking the
president to do "A wrong and shameful act and do
it in violation of neutrality and international
law Senator George Turner. who will doubtless
receive the Democratic nomination for senator in
this state without opposition this year is far more
emphatic and not only calls the agitation against
Wilson "a disloyal backfre,' but insists 1T is
really more than that-it is almost treason" The
senator who was a delegate from the United
States to The Hague tribunal and is recognized
one of the leading authorities in the nation on in
ternational law, discusses the questions involved
and contends that ''thc United States is standing
for sanctity of international law and the first
rights of all neutral nations. 1t cannot withdraw
or compromise without ptiful surrender that
would subject it to the contempt of the world.'
Congressman Dill is being taken to task very
severely by Democrats for his opposition to the
president and there is already another Democratic
candidate in the field against him in his dis
trict. As for Senator jones' the comment of the
Chehas Bee Nugget, less than that of the
Yakima Republic and other leading Republican
newspapers is sufficient 'The government
cannot afford to have it's honor it's cour-
age questioned We regret exceedingly that Sen
ator Jones has seen fit to take the attitude he has
on this question so vitality affecting the standing
of the United States as nation among nations,
and we cannot refrain from expressing
disapprova of his Judgment in his present
course
An oft-expressed view is stated by the Puyallup
Valley Tribune another usually stalwart Bryan
paper by the way, when it says: "The president
of the United States must be upheld by congress
and by the people in his endeavor to enforce upon
any and all belligerents the duty and obligation of
obedience to the laws of nations. For his courage
to do this, he is commended; for his purpose and
determination to put congress on record as sus-
tanning him, he u.s. we believe, wise and right. The
world should know and must know that the voice
of the president, in matter of this international
character, is the voice of the Republic"
These comments are certainly indicative of the
opinion of the people of the state Of Washington
and, we fancy, of the great majority Of the people
throughout the United States. So long as the con-
troversy Of the last two weeks continues, congress
is creating uncalled-for rumpus, disrupting all
foreign negotiations and heralding to the world
that the United States as Senator Turner puts it,
will "concede every demand, no matter how indie
fensible, in order to preserve peace" though
those senators and representatives who take such
position apparently have not the sentiment of
the people of the nation behind them
America is for peace, but it wants peace with
honor not at any price.

nj view of the fact that a gentleman by the name
of M. E. Hay was so badly discredited four years
ago, any comments, statements, pronunciamentoes,
suggestions or "open letters" to 'my dear gov
ernor" he may put out during the coming
campaign are worse than futile. The state Of
Washington relegated Hay to the tall timber four
years ago. He still belongs there.

The Lenten season, a season of ntrospection and
retrospection from the moral as well as the reli-
gious standpoint, season of strengthening char
acter-building and personal development for the
higher things of life, was opened Wednesday,
Laying aside all the jokes, all the cyncsm all the
rallerles and all the sarcasm with which it is
sometimes clothed, Lent offers the average person
that which makes for greater depth of character,
broader vision, deeper sympathy and as such is
most excellent season to observe
