Now comes the Walla Walla Daily
Union, sixteen pages, full of faota about
the Walla Walla valley; its resources and
products. It is a very creditable edition.
Walla Walla Daily Union: An order
for steel rails has been placed at 825 a
ton, the lowest price ever reached in this
country. Protection has done wonders
since 3teel rails sold at $166 a ton.
Taooma Daily Ledger: Good news
papers go far toward waking up a coun
try and making it boom. All such enter
prises deserve liberal encouragement, not
in words, but in coin. Gold is the sinew
of war.
Several of our citizens realizing that
to get settlers we must muke an effort,
have subscribed for the Hkk.u.d to be
seat to friends in the east. This is a
good plan and should be followed by all
■who are interested in the advancement
of our town and county. See our offer
elsewhere regarding foreign subscrip
tions.
It is estimated that there will be at
least a quarter of a million of people
come to Washington territory this year.
The Polouse country should receive its
share, and Pullman, the distributing
point of the Palouse valley, should be
first to make known to the eastern people
that they cannot locate in a better place
than right here.
In England there are 1,000,000 girls
who are not likely to get married. —Ex.
England must have sensible young
men. There are 1,000,000 women in
America who should never have boon
married, but the young men of America
apparently are not as good judges be
fore marriage as their English cousins,
but they learn in time.
The Burlington etrike has been set
tled and several thousand engineers and
firemen taken back into the company's
employ. This ends a stubborn fight
between capital and labor, which lasted
for about a year, with the result of much
loss to both and little gain on either
side. Government arbitration is neces
sary to settle such dispute*
An excbjfiuge says: We are on to it,
" and you shall know how to prepare your
6oft coal in 6uch a way, at 6mall cost,
that there will be no accumulation of
soot in the chimney, and that the under
side of the stove lids will be kept clean
and nice all the time, and the good
■wife's objections to the "nasty coal"
■will bo relieved. Here it is: For a ton
of coal buy 15 cents worth of common
Bait and make a brine of it and pour
over the coal. Try it.
Should the constitutions of the two
halves be identical as regards prohibition,
and patterned after that of Sioux Falls,
■what would the governor of North Da
koto say to the governor of South Da
kota after shaking hands? —Emmons
County (Dak.) Becord.
If they were democrats they would
Bay the same that the governor of South
Carolina said to the governor of North
Carolina, but if republicans they would
merely say—Let us smoke.
The old adage, " where ignorance is
bliss, etc.," is well illustrated by so many
people being content to live in the cold,
blizzard ridden, snow bound, cyclone
6wept, flooded, plodding east, with its
worn out land, uncertain climate and
poor crops, when a country like this
awaits the coming of the enterprising
farmer, business man or capitalist.
Wake up, then, out of your Rip Van Win
kle sleep and come to the land flowing
with milk and honey and you will never
return satisfied to live elsewhere.
The Palouse country has the record
of having been cultivated for over twelve
years without a failure of crops. It is
also known as the beet farming
country in Washington territory, and
-while there may be better in the United
States, no one has ever seen it. This is
the verdict of those who have been here
for many years. Sure crops, proximity
to markets and mild climate are the
essential requisites of an agricultural
country, all these and many more have
we here. Land can be had at reasonable
prices, but the day is not far distant
when it will be worth three or four times
its present valae. This is evident from
the fact that the country has made such
progress under the disadvantages to
which it was subjected, namely: no rail
roads to take the product to market ani
few agencies to proclaim its hidden
wealth. All this is now changed, railroads
run in every direction, newspapers
are in every towu and the N. P. railroad
company interested in its development.
These will bring emigration which will
increase the demand, and the demand
will raise the price. The emigrant should
bear in mind that he is not coming to a
frontier place, but to a civilized commun
ity, having churches, schools and good
Bociety, and where the prices paid for
the necessaries of life are very reasonable.
Here enterprise will find its due reward,
sloth its just doom.
