Browne, of the Rogers-Browne school book rniHt, will bave a bard job on hk hands convincing the parents of Wash ington that locating Spokane in the Cascade monutaius, marking a line of railroad on the crest of the Rame mount ains running north and south, naming Dawson as a city of Alaska, omitting the Northern Pacific and (Jre»t North ern railroads as far as Seattle is con cerned, which appears in the Wagner geography, are typographical errors. It ia estimated that there are over a thou sand errors as rank as these enumerated above. Spenkine of trusts, bow do the par ents of Washington enjoy tbe Htate pchool book trust established by Rogers, Browne and others? Not only is the pa rental pocket book filched, but tbe school children are compelled to get their geographical knowledge from grossly (might say criminally) inacurate books. It is shameful, and should be resented at the polls. John R. Rogers, the present governor and candidate for reelection, is re sponsible to tbe state of Washington for one of the grcmtetft outrages ever perpe trated on a free people. Reference is made to tbe adoption by hisstate board of education of tbe text books in the public schools of Washington for the next five years. These books are abso lutely worthless, and the ridiculous mis takes in the speller and geography in particular causes even the primary grade pupils to poke fun at Mr. Rogers' "skool books." In order that a solid democratic dele gation may be Hecured from the Houth in congress, all the negro voters in that section have been disfranchised. Hence it is necessary that all republican repre sentatives possible should be elected from the northern states. Every loyal man in the state of Washington should vote for Cushman and Jones. The republican candidate for governor, J. M. Frink, is gaining friends every day in his canvass of the state. His genial, honost face is a magnet that draws men of every shade of politics to his support. The republicans of Washington made no mistakp when they selec.ted J. M Frink as their stendard bearer. Business men and wage earners throughout the length and breadth of the land are rapidly coming to the con clusion that the hope of the country reaily rests in a continuation of th° present prosperous conditions. When they are fully awakened to it the hoDes of the Bryan party will vanish. Fly the flag; vote to keep it flying. During the Spanish war the flag was worn and flown by all patriotic Ameri cans. Let them wear and fly it now to show they intend to uphold the adminis tration in keeping the fruits of tbe. war with Spain. Fußionietß would have the men of this country believe that it is far better to haul down the flag in the Philippines | than to keep the wheels of commerce turning and the willing workers em ployed in the United States.

Be i* certainly entitled totre election, in all tbe hiatorj ol Whitman county then- lmn never been .1 HlicriO ho independent, and who bimwU ran tbe office without outride aid. The light for superior jndgship is as certain to go in favor of W. .1. Bryant as the sun rises on election day. There is no democrat, nor is there a popnlist who can approach his vote. lied.serves it, not only from the standpoint of a Fully capable man for the place but be cause he represent* the party of progress mid prosperity. Treasurer P/indus has made a record which the republican p»irty behind him is proud to call attention to. Be hus inaugurated a system of bookkeeping which keeps every one of the various county fonds as straight as a die. Mr. Wiiidus deserves and will have re-election. Auditor Corner bus honestly conducted his office. There h,i\v been no petty postage steals and do scandals. He is tftrong with the people because of his absolute honesty and will show it by his vote. If the people want an honest assessor they have him in 8. B. Siler. lie has, by the hardest work, brought the books of the office to a system. Cos >ts*essor"s office has heretofore been conducted in so loose a way as to be simply a dis grace. Mr. Siler has placed In* office in a state of efficiency which should con tinue him for another two years. One of the most important coaafty po sitions—as the people look upon ft—is the county Burveyorsnip. The bound aries of a man's farm and every county road depend upon the competency anil faithfulness of the county surveyor. K. C. Murray has certainly done the duty expected of him as a competent sur veyor. His work has been true, as he is true There in no call for the election of a man who is not a surveyor. Important positions in the handling of the affairs of a great county like Whit man, with itn varied resources and large business interest*, tire the positions of county commissioners. A weak and un trained man there can do the taxpayer* who furnish the funds incalculable harm. The requisites fora countj commissioner are honesty and business sense. The hoard of commissioDers handle all of the several hundreds of thousands of dollars annually paid info the^eounty treasury by the taxpayers. They moat neither be too liberal or too stingy. T!ie board is pow republican, and every man gets his just dues. There is no falsu teouomy, aor is there profligate a>as*e of county money. Mr. Huutley of Endicott and Mr. Luce of Fallon carry reputations as safe business men. They will pay every dollar to which any citizen or claimant in entitled, bat they will refuse payment where not entitled. It is of conrse well understood that the legislature is Mm moat important branch of politics. The people want laws made ami Doited States senators elected in harmony with their riews. The nation, state and county are un doubtedly republican in sentimeal anri in practice thin time. Every republican nominee wan selected because of Us principles, faith aud bonewty of purpose. Some have nerved in legislative halls aad have shown their honesty and legislative capacity. Others are new in the politi cal arena, hut bare own tried in the crucibles of sound wriHe and capacity for the places for wbtcfa they bare been named. Mr. l'erley, Mr. Smith, Mr. Westaeott, Mr. Allen and Mr. Durham are all safe men. The republican party, as a progreb^iveand upbuilding political factor, pledges them ac deserving of the honors for which they have been chown. A. A. Wi!«on of l'alouse, nominee for prosecuting attorney, is a man of stand ing in the bosiMM and professional world. Democracy and funionism are both doing everything possible to defeat him. Mr. Wilson is a thoroughly com petent lawyer and an honest man for the place. There is no reason why any re publican should refuse him a vote, or why a single ballot of even the opposi tion should be cast ugafrißt him. Harr Wagner, who concocted a jog raphy at the order of Rogers, Browne & Co., is said to be a Boer. lie evidently took his geography lessons from Oom Paul, who says to this day that the world is not round. This probably ac counts for his "jography" statement that Dawson City is in Alaska instead of British territory. It is a conservative estimate to say that Western Wasuington will give the republican national and 6tate tickets GOOO majority. Eastern Washington will be in the band wagon with at least 5000 to the good. Then the f unionists wiil be good and be scut hunting for an other "paramount" issue. The "Full Dinner Pail" brigade i* daily receiving accessions in all parts of Washington. It is now only a question of the Bize of the majority.
