The LAST SEWING MACHINE IMpRov--
MENr.--Improyment after improvement
has been added to the sewing machine,
but the last, which is known as the Hall
Treadle, is SO important MS laborlsav-
ing and health preserving invention,
and reduces the motive power to such
simplicity that there would seem now,
but little more to add to sewing mach
ines, unless it might he an invention
that would cause them to do their work
without human superintendenae., Every
one who has run o sewing machine
knows the power that is required upon
the treadle, the peculiar motion Of the
operators foot that must be required,
that the motion Of the limbs extends to
the hips, and, indeed, steady operators
know we'll the strain upon the limbs
which constant work at it causes !.
hence, when we shy that these objection
are completely removed by the Hall
Treadle, its importance will in meas
ure be realized. The attachment can
be fixed to every variety of sewing
machine now in use. The gentler sex
bless the name OF, w. Smith Hall, the
inventor, as even the weakest among
them can now put sewing machine in
motion and it will commend itself 10
manufacturers, because heavy machines
can now be run at q rate of speed never
before attainable. with incredible little
exertion, and with none Of the tsswear-
ing OUT of operatives hitherto come
planned of. Manufactures and others
interested will find il worth while to
examine this invention, as it can be APP
piled to any machinery driven by foot
power. See advertisement and send to
company for circulars. = ~. r

AN AMUSING INcrDENT.-One of the
richest occurrences of the present ses-
sion of the Assembly happened a few
days ago. One of our Democratic leg
islaturors obtained of prominent Re-
publican member of the House bud
get of papers relating to measure
pending in which they had mutual
interest, and retired to one of the COM
mittee rooms to determine their bear
ing upon the subject awaiting action in
the Representatives Hall. The sur
prise and delight of our friend may be
imagined, when almost the first paper
exposed to view was the veritable and
original agreement of the Republican
caucus to recommend the pardon of o
convict from the Penitentiary to satisfy
the demand of one of the members of
the caucus. The proceedings were
made out in due form, signed by the
Chairman just previous to the organi-
cation of the House, and evidently de-
dosited for safe keeping with the mem
Der who SO unwittingly exposed them to
the view of his political opponents,
While we must admire the honesty of
our friend in returning the petition to
its proper custodian, we cannot help
thinking that this is one instance in
which departure from the strict in
junction of Rendering unto Caesar
the things which are Cesar's" would
have been justified by all good citizens.
When such corrupting influences are
allowed to control even party discip-
line, it is time the people were made
aware of the ways and means by which
the rule of factious is determined under
modern usage.

plIyPIA. SATURDAY MORNING. nov. 6, 1915.
TIE VETO AS A POLITICAL CLUB.

TIE VETO AS A POLITICAL CLUB.
On Monday last, Gov. Ferry sent to
the House Of Representatives his veto
of the bill organizing Ping county, on
the grounds that it made " no provis-
ion for representation in the next Leg
islature, and therefore, Walla-walla
county would be entitled to six mem
bers in the House and Ping county, if
organized, would have none, and would
have no voice in the election OF men,
Der or joint member of the Council;
and furthermore that by the second
section of the bill E. Oliver, I. G.
Frary and George Pollard were ap-
pointed County Commissioners, and they
were authorized to appoint all other
county officers"
The Governors first objection was
rendered untenable by the passage of
a supplementary bill, fixing the appor-
tionment ofrepresentation.of Ping coun-
ty and the adjoining counties affected
by the proposed division, and this act
was placed before him for approval be-
fore his veto message was sent to the
Assembly. The Organic Act provides
that no act of the Legislature " shall
embrace more than one object which
shall be expressed in the title" Now
how he proposes to organize county
and FIX its representation affecting that
of other counties as well, and not vio-
late this express provision, is more than
is apparent to the average intellect.
This defect, if defect it be, was cured
by the subsequent act, and nothing but
the most unwarrantable stretch of Ex-
ecutive authority would have made it
the pretext for disapproval of an act
supported by the united voice Of the
people it affects.
The second objection appears still
more frivolous. Section 1857 of the
Revised Statutes, upon which the Gov.
ernor places particular stress in justif-
cation of his course, provides that ALI
township, district and county officers,
except justices Of the Peace and general
officers Of the militia shall be appointed
or elected in such manner as may be
provided by the Governor and Legis.
lative Assembly of each Territory" Un-
der this section it appears plain that
the bill made ample provision for the
appointment of county officers until The
next general election. We are at q
loss to perceive how the language car
be distorted or twisted into such shape
as to prohibit, as the Governor affirms Il
does, the appointment of County Com
issioners in the manner prescribed by
the Governor and the Legislative As
sembly." Weleave it for him to recon
Gle his action with the plain letter o
the law and Justify his course befor,
an outraged people.
The true cause of the veto is be
lieved to have been the demands O
g. party necessity. or rather desire Il
coerce the Democratic majority Of th
Council into course their conscience
do not approve. Such leverage ma
serve to move Republican primaries o
packed conventions, but the presen
instance has amply proven that Their
are men who cannot be cajoled by fiat
tering or influenced by brides to Civ
sanction to measures which their con
sciences condemn as unjust.

THE DOGS OF WAR TURNED LOOSE.

THE DOGS OF WAX TUNNEL bVoSh'
1t is a well-known fact that when the
editor OF the Dispatch received
the appointment Of Clerk of the Dis
trict Court at Seattle, his connection
with that journal virtually ceased, while
his name is still retained at the head OF
the editorial columns-doubtless to give
stone" to its profound utterances- it is
apparent that he seldom injites para
graph, or dictates a syllable Of its con.
tents. The wisdom displayed by Judge
Lewis. in making the appointment
condition of total cessation from ed
itorial duty, has been the subject Of fire.

ances.
1t appears, however, that party
necessity" has induced the Judge to
relax his determination, and allow Mr..
Brown to mount the tripod "for the oc-
casion only" and indulge in his ac-
customed scurrility. A dispensation is
sued by Gov. Ferry gave free license
for column of abuse, and the old bat
terry which has seen service in thousand
hard-fought conflicts, was Immediately
brought to beae upon the Democratic
majority in the Council. Mr.. Picker

to be the central figure OF the target
set up at long range for amateur prac-
tice. If, however, the editor of the
Dispatch only knew how little Mr.. Pick.
ering cares for him and his abuse, he
would be forced to concede that his
shots fall far short of the mark at which
they are aimed. It is about time for
Mr.. Brown to understand that the
"rule or ruin" policy is not one which
finds ready endorsement by the peo-
pie. Mr.. Pickering possesses too much
manly independence to bow to the little
ring of played-out politicians in the
Territory who have sold themselves to
the highest bidderand now do the dirty
work for the so-called Republican party.
The cause of the onslaught in the
Dispatch is simply the refusal of the
Council to confirm certain pets of Gov.
Ferry for Territorial officers. Mr.. Brown
of course swallows them all (as in duty
bound) and fairly slops over in praise
of their qualifications. "Capt." Tar.
bell, especially, is pronounced ia,
better man for the position to which he
has been nominated than anybody wht
has preceded him. Such expressions
sound more like the utteraNces of the
schoolboy than the man, and indicate
the near approach OF dotage wher
the vagaries Of youth reanimate for
time the wasting powers of the human
frame.
