Tbe vote of Eastern Washington aboold be considered, as far as possible, upon tbe best point, for we esrtaMy waat tha capital of the state made easier of access than the terri torial capital is to this section. It is now a Journey more than equal to a trip to Portland to go bom Eastern Washington to Olympia. Considering that the an praam court, tbe legislature, aad other ■tote afbtauwiO call our dtiaena and their representatives often to the seat of gov ernment, It becomes a matter of much importance to have tbe capital placed at this more convenient poiat. POLITICAL PARAGRAPHS The Bes is bussing ia many a bonnet. ' and the politicians all over the country are ns active and as persevering as the Padfle coast flea. Cities, towns sad , hamlets are visited by the office-seekers * and their emissaries, and the bstef man, , the striker and the saleonist are made happy by the prodigal hand of him who desires to serve the public we'll , say glory, la the democratic ranks there , li activity In organizing, but little or no partarbaaoe. This can be accounted for , largely by the fact that the defeat of last fall has made the leaders cautious, and with the etrife going on all along the re- , publican line they have determined to await the results of the republican con vention and take advantage of any mia labm then In leant politics everything is subaer slant to the advancement of Yakima. Urn location of the capital ia the issue st heart, and the energies of both parties * wIU be bent in that direction. The re publicans held their primaries on Satur day last. Two tickets ware to the field one known ns the Capital ticket and the ether as the Straight Republican. In North Yakima precinct the former carried thednyhynvaiaof MOtoW. The con- e # e Both parties in Kittitas county have held their conventions. The republicans nondnsfsd Engene T. Wilson for state senator, Dr. L N. Power and John P. Writfbtto JZl^dlS^Th^roLrata Fogarty and Charles Miller of Roslyn for npnsmll rives, sad H. M. Baldwin for ctork. In tha republican convention there ware ionr colored and three white men horn Karim. At the primaries of that that his people would bo allowed two del agates to die county convention. Bailey replied that he appreciated the kindness, and would be still more magnanimous and allow the whiles three delegatee. And so he did, retaining four lor his own sable brethren. There is some agitation over the selec tion oI a candidate lor superior Judge among the republicans. C. B. Graves sad M. Gilliam are the aspirants from Ellensburgh. and Sol Smith horn Golden dale. Among the democrats the only names mentioned are J. B. Reavis and 11. J. Snively, of North Yakima, and F. 11. Bodkin, of Ellensburgh. Tbe republican organs ere endeavoring to have it appear that a very happy peace has been patched up la King county, but it is one that will be tarn to shreds and Utters. Tbe Haines faction have taken all the delegates to the state convention, and will vote them at (east once for Hoyt aad Kinaear; but Bquire aad Ferry are anything but downed, sad it is predicted that under say event the 1 ar will have a following ia the coav> .aa, sad one that cannot bs ovuriookoo. Among the democrats it seems to bs a settled opinion that J. J. Browne, of Spo kane Falls, mill be tbe nominee lor tbe V. 8. senate from the asst side of tbe mountains. On the weal side there to more diversity of opinion, bat ex-Oov-i ernor Eugene Semple seems to be in the lend. The democrats will not lack for timber to fill tha offices, and the names of James Hamilton Lewis, Col. Chsoncey W. Griggs, Charley Voorhees, Judge Tbos. Burke, Mayor Wheelwright of Ta coma, John Millar Murphy, C. H. Wer ner, Judge B. L. Sharpetein. Jos. Kuhn and J. B. Metcalf are being fully can vassed. The republican contest for the con gressional nomination appears to have narrowed down to John L. Wilson, of Spokane Falls, and R. Oregon Dunbar, of Goldendale. Both have strong follow lags, both are able man, and either would creditably represent Washington la con gress. Frank Dallam, editor of the Davenport Timet, to most favorably mentioned by the republicans for state treasurer. He has always been in active party worker, to thoroughly qualified for the office and the republicans would do a graceful act by tendering him the nomination. ELLESSBVROH ZEPHYRS. Ellensborgb's jealous antics over the prosperity, growth and good name of Yakima are more laughable than a min strel show. The latest comic gyration of one of ita papers to over what It terms “the unpleasant winds” «f this section. Holy mackerel! How can an KUens borgher ever have nerve to talk about winds prevailing in other places? With a climate that to its greatest drawback, it should keep as mum as a clam oo the subject. It should remember the experi ence it had with Sells Brothers’ and Bar rett’s circus: how tbe bill-boards, i usually so braaeu, modsstlv retired to Mother Earth before an Ellensburgh aephyr, aad how tbe poor showmen were unable to raise their tent bat were com pelled to give their performance behind canvass thrown over a circle of wagons. In ita telegraphic account of this occur sacs, Ellensburgh laid away on n shelf tbe name of “Capital” bill, where the tent was to have been erected, and sub stituted that of “Craig’s” hill instead. Poor, unfortunate “Capital” hill. This was only one of many incidents which illustrate the strength of and havoc created by her frightful winds. The last occurred only Tuesday, when Lloyd Brae.' new brick building was blown down, with the result of seriously injuring two of the men working thereon.' El lens burgh very industriously telegraphs to the outside world most of the happen-| lags of that place, but faithful newspaper; readers have been unable to find anything in print regarding the ravages o» Tues day’s “breexe.” If she bad liar desire of becoming the capital the public might be | kept on the anxious seat from fear that the capital buildings and the legislature Hoc Id be found on some windy occasion blown into an adjoining county. Emtokul in Portland Oregonian, Au gust 24: North Yakima comes to the front as a candidate for the capita) of the new state of Washington. The situation Is as central and accessible as any other point in the state; the surroundings are attractive, and the natural resources of the adjacent country are great. North Yakima is on the main line of the North ern Pacific, and is reached from both the eastern and western sections of the state, and when the railway from the Columbia river is built it wiU be accessi ble from the southern part. North Yak ima meane to enter the race for the capi tal, and her citizens think she has good chances of success. C attain H ottos, of the RfpuUic, waa actively engaged in planning his cam paign for the lieutenant-governorship when the shock of Saturday's primaries convinced him that he was very effect ually in the consomme and that he had better torn hie attention to swimming oat. As his editorial utterances last week were strongly in the line of har mony, and principles and party above persons, he doubtless will endeavor to overcome the bad taste which the bitter pill bee left ia his mouth and shoot him self bonne for Allen and Hewlett.

Tbe attendance upon tbe meetings throughout has been large and much in terest has been manifested. Distin guished educators from abroad have been present, including Superintendent of Pub lic Instruction J. H. Morgan, of Elleos burgh, and Prof. L. E. Follansbee. of Olympia, the institute conductor.

This morning Prof. Follansbee followed up tbe subjects of reading and arithmetic. Miss Bessie Owens read a very interesting essay on drawing, and Mias Engdahl took for her text “the primary class,” which indicated much thought and ex perience. Tbe teachers, by resolutions, have re quested that U E. Follansbee be placed on tbe republican ticket, and J. H. Mor gan on the democratic ticket for tbe office of superintendent of public instruction. Jack Dempsey was knocked out by Geo.

Prof. Huxley, before the International Medical College at London In 1889. "Biochemic Remedies, which act in perfect harmony with Nature’s laws, have achieved such notable curee that thousands of thinking minda have already accepted this method by which health is so certain to he restored, even in almost hopeless cases, if Providence be pleased to grant ever so small an amount of vitality or pow ers to further the continuance of life." Dr. Walker, Dundee, Scotland. l “The question whether thia or that diaeaae ia or ia not dependent on the existence of foreign genna or baccilli, ia of no importance in Biochemic treatment.
