Bccadhi tbe month of August, 1899, was no wiser than to make so complete fool of itself is no excuse for the pres ent month. According to the rale, wis dom should come with aire. Mr. Towki, the Populist nominee for Vice-President, has withdrawn from the contest. This, however, does not leave the Populists without a nominee of come kind. Mr. Bryan while Masquer ading as a Democrat, is the embodiment of Populism. Ir the State Board of Horticulture means business there wiil be but little fruit marketed this season. According to the law of this State wormy fruit can not be placed on the market, and the State Board of Horticulture serves notice that stringent enforcement of the statutes will be the rale, sot the excep tion. reliable character, perhaps at a some what increased expense at first. There are many bridgos throughout the County which are now said to be unsafe, and where such exist and it is possible to avoid bridging, even at a cost uf distance and cash, it had better be done. It would seem that in the past too .little regard has been manifested (or 'the future in this respect, and the newly adopted plans of some of the .Supervisors in constructing roads to avoid bridges is very commendable and should elicit the assistance of all residents desiring per manency in road-building and reduc tion of maintenance of our thoroughfares. It is unfortunate that money accru ing to the several counties from the irreducible school fund should by neces sity of law remain unused for two months, especially at a time when funds re so much needed by the districts. About $3,500 of this fund belonging to Columbia County now in the hands of the County Treasurer, and must re main there until the first Monday in October. Meanwhile the several dis tricts are issuing warrants in payment of services of tenehers and the warrants are drawing 6 per cent interest. Th ilea. .''Man Wanted.'' has super- cededihesign, 'WoMcn Wanted Today." This condition of affairs prevails throughout the Northwest at the present time. Theaemana tor moor nss not been so great for the past eight years as it is at the present time. In nearly every newspaper thronghout the State are advertisements for laborers. Tbe condition calls to mind the contrast of four years ago. Locally, the demand is abreast the times in other parts of tbe Northwest. Mills are operated short handed and logging camps are ran much in the same manner. Men are wanted for railroad work and in the harvest fields. Ranchers and steam boatmen need helpers, and the demand js not to be supplied, seemingly. Should anybody mention it to you, 'tell them that business is being done in this country, please. Principle And Practice. Spokane Chronicle. We declare strata that aU governments Insti tuted anions; men derive their Just powers from the consent ot the governed." That's good reading, isn't it? Comes from the latest Democratic platform, you know. Fine seutiment grand. One can't help indorsing it. Let's read some more: That the fovernraeat not based npoa tha consent of the governed la tyranny; and that to impose npon aiiy people a g overument ot force la to substitute the methods ot imperialism tor those of a republic" It's eloouent inspiring. And one feels such a thrill when, after reading this noble declaration Dy the Democratic party, he picks up the paper and reads news like this: Raxiiob. N. C, August 2. "White suprem acy !" has been the battle cry -of the Democrats throughout tha lone and bitter campaign Just closed In North Carolina, the result of which will be eTideneed by the casting of ballots to day. Conservative estimates made by the Democrats place the majority for the constitu tional amendment, which trill practically dis franchise the negro, at e.000. TO DKALEKS IN FRUIT.

Commissioner H irst District. VEUNO.HA VAKIGTIE, The Attorney General has given to the State Treasurer his opinion regard ing the collection by the Bute of interest on deferred papments of taxes from Counties. The case in question is that of Washington County, which owes nearly $8,000 back taxes, and the State Treasurer claims interest due the State. It is the opinion of the Attorney Gen eral that the amount of State revenue apportioned to Washington County was and is an indebetness from said County to tbe State, and it became due and payable within a reasonable time after au amount of taxes, due said County, sufficient to pay the same had been col lected and of said County, that the County had turned owr to the County Treasurer no legal right to divert such money or any part thereof to, or use it Tor, any other purpose than the pay ment o'f its eli are of the State revenue; and that the County is liable to the State for the interest at the lawful per cent from and after the expiration of a reasonable time to pay the" same to tbe State after it had been collected and turned over to the County Treasurer of said Countv. Obioom heretofore has been compara tively free from fruit pests and worms which destroy vegetation, but each suc ceeding year seems to bring forth some new pestilence. The advent of the army worm has been sufficient demonstration that this Coast is no les subject to the prevalence of all such scourges than are the Eastern States. While there are many earnest advocates of the theory that the extreme mild winters for two years past are greatly, if not altogether responsible for the presence of this latest pestilence, and while there is inore or less philosophy in such argu ment and reason for the belief, yet there may be other reasons which possess equal merit with the other. The scar city of forest birds is advocated by many persons as being somewhat re sponsible for the presence of so many worms, and these persons are equally enthnsiustic in their advocacy of the introduction of thousands of forest birds as a means for destroying worms and fruit pests. We do know that the spar row is an mduatriouH little fellow in his constant search for worms and bugs, and other varieties of birds are equally as ambitious, and po doubt there is much wisdom in the belief that if there were more birds there would be fewer worms and bugs. Tub good results from changing the manner and methods of road work in this County are alrpady manifesting themselves, . We believe the statement is undeniable that as a rule the roads in this County have never been in better condition than they are this year, with promise of continued and permanent Improvement. There is much work yet to be done, and assurance is given that an effort in that direction will be of a more substantial character than it has been in the past. Where it has been economy on time heretofore, there seems to be a prevailing disposition ' to econ omize in a financial way by abandoning routes where bridges were necessary, y building roads of a permanent and.
