In Paint g&yfa
White Lead is best: properly applied
it v.'iil not scale, chip, chalk, or rub
off; it firmly adheres to the wood and
forms a permanent base for repainting.
Paints which peel or scale have to be
removed by scraping or burning before
satisfactory repainting can be done.
When buying it is important to obtain
Strictly Pure
White Lead
properly made. Time has proven that
white lead made bj the "Old Dutch"
process of corrosion possesses
qualities that cannot be obtained by
any other method of manufacture. This
process consumes four to six months
time, and produces the brands that
have given White Lead its character
as the standard paint.
"Armstrong & McKelvy"
" Beymer-Bauman" " Fahnestock"
" Davis-Chambers"
are Standard brands of strictly pure
Lead made by the " Old Dutch " pro
cess. You get the best in buying then.
You can produce any desired color by
tintinj these brands of white loarf with
National Lead Cc.'s Pure White Lead
Tinting Colors.
For sale by the most reliable dealers in Paict3
everywhere.
If you are going to paint, it will pay you to
send to us for a book containing information
that may save you many a dollar ; it v/ill

THE CITIZEN
A USE FOR CHIN AMEN.
Work That White Men Cannot Be
Hired to Do.
Here Ia » Propoaltlon WTilcH Might For
nlth ft Partial Solution of tht
Perplexinjr Chl«e««
Problem.
Some days ago the Portland Oregon
fan said: "If we had at this moment
forty thousand more Chinese in the Pa
cific in the northwest to do the work
which white men will not do, and
which yet is necessary for development
of the country, the result would be
good for everybody." A correspondent
writes that "he would like to be in
formed what the nature of that work
is,'' and the Oregonian thus responds:
The occupation in which Chinese la
bor would mainly be useful is that of
clearing our heavily timbered lands.
This is labor which white men will not
or do not to any extent perform. Thus
far nearly all the work of clearing our
lands has been performed by Chinese.
But it has come to a stop. Since Chi
nese immigration was suspended it has
become impossible to get labor for this
purpose. Iligher wages are demanded
by Chinese, and no owner of timber
land can afford to hire it cleared. It is
easy, of course, to assert that there are
plenty of white men ready to perform
labor of this kind and to denounce the
owners of the land for employing them,
but there is a test of this matter that
may be very simply made. There are
immense areas of this land yet open
for settlement. Government will give
them away to all citizens who apply.
But our workingmen refuse to take
these lands and subdue them. They
wouldn't clear the lands for the gift of
them, doubtless because they think
they can <lo better, and many of them
may be right.
liere then is a line of work in which
Chinese would not be in the way of
white labor, and there is nothing more
necessary for development of the
country than the clearing of
bodies of these lands. The work is
now practically at a stand. Again,
Chinese labor would be useful in mar
ket gardening and fruit growing. Or
egon and Washington do not grow
vegetables enough by one-half for their
own consumption. What we have in
the way of market gardening now is
largely the work of Chinese. Facts
like these are facts in spite of all decla
mation.
As a people the Chinese are not a
desirable class, Mince they are unfit
for incorporation into the citizenship
of the country, but in every respect
they are far less objectionable and
dangerous than tens of thousands from
European countries who arc admitted
without question every year —anarch-
ists; agitators, beggars, mountebanks
and criminals of every degTee. The
country can do without Chinese, of
course, but much work that would
contribute to Its development will re
main undone. There is no probability
that Chinese will ever be freely ad
mitted again, and this, too, in all the
circumstances i tr well, sinco the pres
ence of an inferior race among supe
rior beings like ourselves is always a
source of discontent which political
agitators continually indame. In all
circumstance#, therefore, exclusion of
the Chinese in advisable, or even nec
essary, but still a word now and then
on certain phases of the subject, dic
tated by candor and common sense, may
not be intolerable.
Advantage of Lf>ft-llaud Writing.
The number of men who can write
legibly with the left hand is very small
in this country, where the fact of be
ing ambidextrous is not appreciated at
its fijll worth. Sir Edwin Arnold
stated that in Japan every child is
taught to write with either and both
hands; and he hinted that this was not
the only evidence of sound common
sense he met with while in the king
dom of the mikado. There have been
many remedies suggested for what is
known as the writer's cramp, and many
writers alternate between the pen and
the typewriter; but tho simplest plan
of all Is to acquire the act of writing
with either lirrhd, and change from one
to the other on tho first suspicion of
fatigue. It is quite easy for a child to
learn to write with the left hand, and,
although after the muscles have got
set with age it is more difficult, almost
any man can learn to write with his
left hand in a week, and to write as
well with one hand as the other in less
than a year.

Quinnemore, formerly chief of the
Cceur d'Alene Indians, has a fine farm
of one hundred and sixty-seven acres
on the south side of (Spokane river,
about a dozen miles above Spokane,
Wash., and the other day the tax gath
erer thought it would ho a very proper
and desirable thing to tax it a good
round sum. So he came smilingly with
his bill. Hut Qttlnnemore was prepared
for liim, even on such an unexpected
mission. He brought forth a paper
which in part read thus: "This patent
Is issued upon the express condition
that the title thereby conveyed shall
not be? subject to taxation of any char
acter, but shall remain inalienable and
not subject to taxation for tho period
of twenty years from the date thereof,
as approved January 18, 1881." The as
sessor apologized and withdrew, not
smiling.

An American acrobat in Vienna late
ly won a queer wager. He bet a con

man that ho could not endure to have
a liter of water fall drop by drop from
a height of three feet upon his hand.
When three hundred drops had fallen
the athlete's faoe became red and he
looked aw if in pain. At the four hun
dred and twentieth drop he gave up,
raying It was impossible to bear tho
pain any longer. The palm of his hand
was swollen and inflamed, anil in one
place the skin had broken open. Only

had gone to make up the four hundred

—ln Johnson County, there is
what is called the Burning Mountain. It
is an immense coal bank that has been on
lire ever since the first white man visited
that country. There are many traditions
among the Indians as to the origin of the
fire, but all point to its great antiquity,
and it is possible that this bank h»- been
burning for 200 or 300 years. The country
around presents » singularly barren apj e tr
ance, which is not in the leist improved by
by the mountain itfelf In places there
are reefs of coal crop out. and a high wii;d

the fire is mainly under ground and indi
cated only by the heat of Ihe surface and
the inmuiuerable jiits of smoke and
tougjes of flame that appear through the
cracks in the baked earth. It is dangerous
to go about the place, for not only are
there frequent cavings of tbo surface, but
the gasses which from the burning
coal are overpowering.

have thus far been issued. Although this
