Governor Boaver, by proclama
tion, has designated Friday, April
26th, as Arbor Day iu this State. The
Governor finishes bis earnest appeal
for a general and hearty observance of
tbe day in these words: "Let our
thoughts turu at once to preparation
fur the coming Arbor Day. Let trees
be provided in advance. Let the citi
zens of our several communities con
sult together as to the species of trees
suitod to each locality likely to grow
into what will be useful as well as
ornamental. Let preliminary meet
ings be held to arrange for tbe details
of Arbor Day, and let our roadsides
welcome with smiling verdure the era
of better roadways, which, we hope,
is dawning in Pennsylvania."

tion of our townsman, Mr. Cobb, iu

Monday of this week, at the
earnest solicitation of the parents, Dr.
Varian, of Titusville, assisted by Drs.
Morrow and Siggins of this place, per
formed the extremely delicate opera
tion of reraoviog a tumor from an
nine-mouths old male child of Mr.
and Mrs. Fred. Weingard, of Germau
Hill. The Doctors had little faith iu
the success of tbe operation, yet to
leave the tumor the child could not
have lived a month, aud it was deemed
best to make an effort to save it in
this way, but sad to say tbe little suf
ferer did not live more than six hours
after the operation. The tumor
weighed over three pounds, and is
something entirely new to tbe profes
sion in one so young. The bereaved
parents have tbe heartfelt sympathy
of all their neighbors in. this affliction.

It is observed with just a little
twinge, perhaps, of not unpardonable
envy tbat Brother Weok, of the
Forkst RErcui.tCAN, is becoming
proverbially lucky and frequently
getting into clover. It was only about
a year ago tbat he taunted his brethren
with an acknowledgment of the receipt
of a gratuitous mess of smelt, and
here he comes agaio with the follow
ing: "We are indebted to Mr. Cephas
Moon for a fine mess of tbe boss pars
nips of the season, one of which
measured precisely three feet and three
inches." Surely, his lines have fallen
in pleasant places. Blizzard. Doubt
less our brother of the Blizzard intend
ed tbe above as a compliment, and of
course we accept it as such, but wby
he should "twinge his unpardonable
envy" with a broad reference to
"clover," just at a time when tbe new
"pigs in clover" puzzle is so promi
nently before the American people, is
hard to reconcile with a belief that
bis envy is not just a little twinged
with "darned sarkasm."

WASHINGTON TERRITORY.
Kelso, Washington, Mar. 30, '89.
To Foretl and Clarion Co. Friends:
I thought perhaps that, as I am, as
the people of the East siy, at tbe
"jumping off" place of the United
States, I would send you a few items
for tbe benefit of the readers of the
Republican, and my old friends. As
I said before, I have arrived at the
"jumping off" place, and I must say
that when I "jumped off" the cars at
this place on the 12th inst. and looked
around me and beheld the country
lying on both sides of the Cowlitz
river, I was agreeably surprised.
Spring had put on her ever verdant
robe and all nature seemed to wear a
joyful smile at the return of spring.
Kelso is situated on the Cowlitz river,
about three miles from its confluence
with the great Columbia. TheTacoma
branch of the N. P. R. R. also runs
through the place and tbo company
have a very good and commodious
depot here. Steamers run between
here and Portland, Oregon, fifty milts
south of here. Fare, including meals,
81.50. The Cowlitz river is navigable
for good B'zed steamers tir fifty miles
from its mouth. Kelso is a new town
about three years old, and contains
about fuur hundred inhabitants. It
has three general merchandise stores,
one grocery, one hardware, and two
drug stores ; bIbo two good churches
and two hotels. The land on the west
side of the river is level and well im
proved, extending a distance of about
seven miles te the Columbia ; on the
east side it approaches the foot hills.
There is no doubt in my mind but in
the near future this will be a great
grazing section, for the winters are
mild and stock requires very little
feeding, aud so far as raising hay here,
tbe world cannot beat it. Timothy
and clover are natural productions ot
the soil, aud it is to uncommon thing
to hear a raau say that he cut from
three to four tons of timothy per acre
off his meadow last year. As for fruit,
there is no end to it, such as apples,
pears, plums and cherries. One writer
here made the remark that "if the
whole Pacific Slope was planted to
prunes, there would be a market for
tbem, as tbe prunes that are raised
here are world renowned for their del
icate flavor." Tbe streams here are
fine, uo muddy bottoms, but the clear
and pure mountain water flowing over
pebbly bottoms. All tbe streams are
alive with hVh, such as salmon, stur
geon, saloion aud brook trout, and
many other kiuds, too numerous to
mention. Aud he a ho delighta to
throw the fly can do so to his hearts
contetit, aud receive a rich reward fur
his time aud labor, by returning home
loaded tsith the shiuiug beauties. Iu
many places here you can look ell' iu
the distauce aud seo the siniw-ia,'d
peaks of Mouuts St. Helen, Hood,
llauies, aud tbe Three Sifters. Tbe
first of this week I took a trip to Che
halis and faund our old friend Kb.
Russell aud wife. They are well lo
cated, couteuted and happy, aud say
that tbey have no desire whatever to
return to Pennsylvania. I am slaying
at present at Aaron Root's, who is
likewise well located aud puthinj
things right along. Io fact al! thai
came here from your section are per
fectly satisfied and have no desire to
return, and think tbat tbey have
struck it rich. As regards the timber
in this country, it is almost too won
derful to tell about. Tbe fiuest fir
and cedar tbe eye ever beheld is here.
It is uot au uncommon thing to see
saw logs all the way from five to seven
feet in diameter.
Lest I weary you, I will close by
saying to those contemplating coming
here, that if you mean business, why
come; but if you think you can come
here and sit down and have plenty,
why stay where ynu are, they have no
use for you here. But if you come
here and roll up your sleeves and go
at it in earnest you will find that you
can make a belter living' and save
more in ono year than you cao there
in three. This country is, as near as
I can describe it, another Pvunfylva
oia, with the exception of the climate,
which is very mild, the thermometer
hardly ever getting lowef than two
degrees above zero in this- section.
There are vast forests of fir and cedar
everywhere you go, and when devel
oped, inexhaustible cohI fields. There
is plenty of government land here yet,
but as a matter of fact those thnt come
now have to go farther back than
those that came a year ago. All this
country wants to develop it is pluck
and capital, and it will bloom like the
rose in the valley of Sharon, and sur
prise the world with its fertility and
productions. I will close for this time
lest my friends there think I am tor
enthusiastic in regard lo this part of
the country. But will say to one and
all come and see for yourselves and be
convinced. Alex. Mealy.

vious to the vacillating climate of Wash
ington. Recently a number of farmers In the
eastern part of this State have been swiu
dled by a gang of sharpers, as follows.
Let our farmers look out for such fellows :
One of the gang drives up to a farmer's
house and roquests permission to store in
the barn a number of pitchforks of an
inferior quality. Permission Wing grant
ed, tho farmor is told that the forks com
prise the last lot of a largo consignment,
aud will be sold at very low figures in
order to close a transaction. A tompting
offer la then made of SO per cent, commis
sion to tho farmer upon any sales mudo
while the forks are temporarily in his
charge, and a long agreement, most of
which is in fine priut, and alleged to be
only a stipulation as to commission, is in
most cases then feigned by the tempted
tiller of the soil, who neglects to read the
paper carefully, and learns, when too lata,
that he has contracted to buy the worth
less forks at an exorbitant figuro.
