Staying
Trade
In the drug business more than
in any other, success depends on
public confidence. The career
of a store depends not so much
on the occasional customer as on
those whose continuous trade it
holds. It must hold them by
meriting and securing confi
dence.
Our
Trade
Has grown steadily since we
came to Leaven worth and it has
grown because we deserve that
it should. Customers have come
once, come again, sent their
friends, and all have stayed.
They have stayed because they
are careful in their drug buying;
they wanted the best goods at
just, prices. That's what they
always get at the-
City Drug to re
E. A. KING, Manager.
The Ideal tb The It. al
(Written for the Echo)
I ha%-e not the slightest notion that a
letter or a series of letters from me
would revolutionize, or in any percepti
ble degree, change existing conditions,
but if, in my awkard mode of expres
sion, I can succeed in giving your read
ers something to thick about and thus
ktep them out of mischief and incident
ally afford them a brief relaxation from
the ordinary drudgery of life, I snail
feel amply repaid for the effort—
For if they stop to count the cost,
They will see that they have nothing lost,
Except the time they've spent in reading.
Which they'll agree Is not worth heeding.
It will only be necessary to try to at
tract attention to the Ideal, because
all are acquainted with tee real ex
isting conditions.
The exercise of each man's creative
faculties in the formation of the objects
most desirable to him, is the only form
of human labor which docs not require
man to look upon large numbers of his
fellows as his victims, his rivals or his
foes.
The sweetest pleasures incident to
work attend its wholesome, unbought,
unslaved exercise.
To reproduce ourselves, our thoughts
aud fancies in objective realities in
wood or stone, in words or colors, in
melody or in art, independent of an em
ployer's hire or a market's caprice, lifisi
labor from its servitude and tets it on
its throne; removes its cu^e and re
stores to it its crown of retal dignity.
The highest wants of man become his
friends, the proper stimuli of his toil.
They cease to be the means by which
his brother tempts him to his ruin.
Each man receives rewards commensu-
rate to his labor, not doleil to him from
selfish, greedy hands, but each becomes
his own pay-master, finding his fairest
compensation: first, in the enjoyment of
the fiums he himself hath built, second,
in the buoyant healtbfulness, insepar
able from inventive labor.
To mankind toiling thus, no strife
could rend asunder the bonds of human
fellowship. For who would covet im
perial palaces and pomp, if, that the
thought of all the race condemned the
owner to the hand of scorn anleM hit
labor fashioned it. Aud who would
lose the blessedness of giving to the
poor and worthy, if charily were loos
ened from the bonds with which busi
ness necessity biuds its open hands.
Relying chiefly on himself, man's moral
judgment would burst the bonds with
which commercial complications re
srain its force. Manhood would cease
to be compromised by complftlsaoca to
ward evils that cried to heaven tor i'e
dress, or complicity in wrongs which
flush the checks will shame. The un
trammeled conscience would regain its
power, and DBWarped charity assert its
might. Individual vice ar.d social out
rage would shrink and cower before the
free, outspoken condemnation of the
moral judgement of the race. The
richest minds, the ripest culture and
tho strongest wills, instead of strug
gling with each other for mastery over
the poor, to acquire by purchase of the
objects of desire, would invent unnum
bered novelties to sustain existence and
fill its hours with joy. The possibilities
of such a life no thought can guess.
Man differs from all below in this,
that he alone creates, constructs. The
bird builds its nest by instinct: the
beasts burrow their holes in the ground
by instinct; and one ne^ and oue lair
differ not from others in glory.
Man alone has the varied wants, the
changing caprices, the never satistied
desire?, the ever growing aspirations,
which nothing less than eeaseie-My
active constructive power can gratify.
Man alone has the taste to discriminate,
the judgment to distinguish, which only
infinite variety can satisfy.
With constantly growing power,
with constantly improving lasu-, \vi;h
wants, desires, caprices outrunning sat
isfaction,with daily growing knowledge
of the materials and forces furnished
to his hand, he stands on eiirtu its
sole creative agenov. Here, if any
where, mau is in the image of his
maker. Joking.

So far as known the only artesian
well in Lincoln county was opened in
Edwall, Friday, at a depth of 48 feet.
The well stands in the center of the
town and was drilled with an ordinary
horse power well drill. Apiece of O!
--dinary galvanized iron pipe was fitted
inside the casing extending seven feet
above the ground, and although the
water escaped through several holes in
the casing the water stood at the top of
the pipe or seven feet above ground.—
Quincy Quill.
At the recent democratic county con
vention it was decided to establish a
democratic newspaper in Okanogan
county for the coming campaign, and a
committee was appointed to take charge
of the matter. It has not been an
nounced as yet where the paper will be
located or who will have charge of it.
If there is anything- that Okanogau
county really needs it is another news
paper. —Myers Creek News.
II B. Malloy, register of the United
States land office at Waterville, on the
evening before the convention at Cou
lee City, while acting as chairman of an
informal gathering of delegates, said
that when he entered upon the duties of
register six years ago there were but
2800 entries made in the entire district
covering 12,000 square miles. Today
there are 10800 entries made in his dis
trict. This shows a marvelous growth
in population in the territory embraced
within the Waterville land district. He
also stated that there were 1500 voters
in Douglas county two years ago that
were not allowed to vote because they
h:ul not been residents of the state one
year, the time required by the constitu
tion. —Hartliae Standard.
A Chelan dispatch says the electric
road through the Big Bend country, as
planned by A. Bettes of Spokane, J. F.
Sullivan of Coaur d'Alene, Idaho, and
I Judge W. J. Long of Chelan, will cro3s
! the Columbia river on a ferry to let it
into Chelan. The road will leave the
Great Northern at Rock Island and up
the Moses coulee into the heart of the
western crescent of the Big Bend belt.
It will follow the bend to a point where
the old government road left the bend,
and then work down by easy grades to
the Columbia river. It will strike the
river at Chelan landing and cross it by
ferry, and continue on to Chelan, which
will be the northern terminus. The
power to operate the road will be se
cured from the Chelan river by the
Chelan Waterpower company. Work
on the road will be commenced in about
thirty days and forty miles will proba
bly be built this year.—Bridgeport
Post.
Below we give an accurate account
of the snow fall for each day during the
past winter. The aggregate amount of
snow fall for the winter was a fraction
over 17 feet. This may shock some
people who are not familiar with condi
tions here. When we say, that at no
time was there more than two and a
half feet on the ground, and then only
for a short time, and that men worked
out doors every day during the winter
in their fhirt sleeves, and that it did
not get cold enough to freeze ice, and
that all the ice that was put up was
was shipped in from Mission, Wash.,
and Montana, the conditions will be
better understood.The associaton of cold
weather with a large fall of snow must
I be modified.

Id speaking at a dinner to members
of the order of the Founders and Pa
triots of America, of which Admiral
Dewey was elected governor general.
Gen. Miles said: "The Russian sol
dier is courageous In saying his prayers
before going into battle, and the same
may be said of the soldiers of the sultan
but I have found that on the battlefield 1
it is the fighting and not the praying
that wins.
"It has been my privilege to see most
of the armies of the world. I have
studied carefully the armies, of Japan
and of China and the soldiers of Rut-sia,
and the success in the east today of the
soldiers of the mikado is due to their
wonderful skill, the faithful perform'
ance of their duties, and their remark
able enterprise.
'•Of all the armies of the world, ours
seems to differ in that the men are
serving for principle*. Our men seem
to feel that they are working for a free
people, for a republic in which every
man is a sovereign and every woman a
superior of a sovereign. Our flag rep
resents the sovereignty and th j free
dom of manhood. 1'

A wlrelea telegraph writer or zero-;
graph, as it is called for the sake of
brevity, has been iuvenud bjr an Eng
lishman. The zerograph,in appearance,
rc-sembies an ordinary typewriter, but
ir is of simpler construction, with a key
board figured with the signs of the let
ters and numerals, which can be print
ed or telegraphed to any number of in
struments. Each instrument, the in
vento explains, is at once a receiver and
a transmitter, enabling operators to
converse with one another in writing,
and thus obviating misunderstandine*.
which are apt to occur in telephonic
communications. So far messages have
been sent only for a short distance, but
it is intended to experiment over wider
spaces, and it is hoped that messages
can be sent to any distance that ether
waves will carry. The machine is al
ways ready for use as there is m>
mechanism which requires t<> be wound
up iv order to obtain sychronism, the
ODeiator has both hands free for manip
ulation.
The apparatus consists of a typewrit
er which, by depressing- a key. sends
two impulses. Each letter requires on
ly two impulses, and the different let
ters are obtained by means of the time
interval between these impulses. For
wireless purposes these impulses oper
ate a switch connection with the induc
tion coil, thus making the spark- for
sending the ether wave-. The induc
tion coil is connected with an aerial us
well as an earth wire. To turn the ap
paratus into a receiving Instrument it
is only necessary to move :i twitch
which is placed beneath the typewriter.
This makes all the connections to the
receiving apparatus, which consist of a
coherer and a very sensitive relay.—ln

The Fort Cobb Record tells this story
of a young girl's compo-ition on Men,
which shows that the seed of the wo
men's club is sown on the territorial
prairies: Men are what women marry.
They drink and smoke and swear and
have ever so many pocket*, but they
wont go to church. Perhaps if they
wore bonnets they would. They iN
more logical than women and always
more zoological. Both men and women
have sprung from monkey*, but the WO"
men certainly sprung farther than tho
men.

While he bends to the linage or kneels to the
