military man, prominent In the WASH

adjustment of the governors mill
tary staff entirely, with the exception
of Acknowledgement, and to abolish the
acknowledgements and the brigadier-
generals stats.
He also thinks it desirable, il the
governor must have a staff, that II
should be based upon the numerical
strength of the body Of troops COM
manded.
In any case, he says, it is essential
TO the attainment Of efficiency and
the maintenance Of discipline that
such officers should be men of such
training, service and experience as
wonld command the respect of the
rank and file, and, as far as possible
in every instance to make the stat

much to be desired, thus obtaining
good and intelligent military service

4 PLEA FOR TYPEWRITERS

The following kindly words for the
typewriting sisterhOod is communi-
Gated the HERALD and thoroughly
endorsed by this journal: Ever since
the art of typewriting and stem
ography was invented and began to be
adopted by girls as means of secur-
ing a livelihood, newspaper men have
considered it a capital subject upon
which to make the most puerile jokes.
1t is a most unmanly thing to do. Is
there any earthly reason why woman
should not earn her living so?
1t not so many years since there was
no employment open for girl possess
ing an education, except teaching, and
when this new and fascinating art
was invented, it was considered a
blessed thing for those girls to whom
teaching was a drudgery. And now
the men, who should try to do all in
their power to encourage them and
shield them, instead, are trying to
ridicule them out Of the field.
We read not long since of an editor
who never permitted joke on a
woman to appear in the columns of
his magazine. II there we're more
men in the world like this one, it
would be all the better for it.
Men are always telling their sisters
that they cannot be too careful to
preserve their regulations, while they
are not perhaps as careful as they
might be to keep the grimy fingers OF
scandal off the names of, let us say,
other mems sisters.
How can a girl expect to command
any respect when her occupation is
constantly held up to ridicule and de
rision? There is nothing so blasting
to a girls character as the hot breatf
Of SANDER, no matter how uncalleC
| for il may be.

shire, and we hear of a proposed deer
park Of twenty-five thousand acres. The

The Truth Alb out Chicago

Post: Chicago has been more persist
emily and villainously lied about than any
other city on the footstool. The envious
admit this, but insinuate that good
share Of the lying has been done by
Chicagoans themselves. The insinuation
is beneath notice, because If a Chicago
man ever prevaricates about his city IL is
only because his mOdesty will not permit
him to speak the whole truth.
The latest performance Of the outside
prevaricators, who have no such license
has been to stain the atmosphere with the
most lurid whoppers about certain grip
epidemic which they say has been deci-
mating the population OF this city.
1t Is time to put stop TO these stories
We have, it is true, had the grip, and we
have had it bad. For six weeks past we
have lost by death about $50 of our popu-
latiOn a day-altogether enough to make
considerable little city. But what oil
that? In the same period the population
has been increased by 1000 births and
5000 arrivals from other cities-for not
even the grip can keep people away from
Chicago. Thus the city contains about
5000 more people than Ii did on March
and still they're coming.
We mourn our dead, not few Of whom
have been useful and even distinguished
citizens; but in the tremendous rush and
onward impulse OF a mighty city theiI
places are soon filled. The grip may
come and go, but Chicago goes on forever

The Grand Army Enoamptment

Tacoma Ledger: Puyallup is making
extensive preparations for the entertain
ment of the G. A. r. veterans and their
families who win rendezvous there this
week, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday,
on the occasion OF the ninth annual en-
campment, That no better place in the
state for such a gathering could have
been chosen is very evident, not only from
the advantageous location of the city
/ but also Of the enterprising, go-ahead
spirit of the people. Puyallup is bound
| TO Guido herself in hospitality, The mos

with equinimity, and with the feeling
that his judgment was entitled to chance
for justification by results.
While politically opposed to Acting
Governor Laughton and unalterably
allied against his party and its corrupt
vicious and dsgraceful record in this
state, the Miner feels that as a man and
as the chief executive of this state, he has
been wantonly and unjustly abused, and
for the sole purpose of interfering with
his honorable ambition. If Governor
Laugh ton retires from his high Office with
no greater stain on his administration
than the use of the veto power, he will
have earned the appreciation of the cIu-
Zens of this state.

THE NATIONAL GUARD STAFF

1t may be well to suggest that the
positions on the military staff of the
governor, brigadier-general, adju-
tant-general, and colonies OF the state
should be filed by gentlemen who
have had service in the field or in the
National Guard, and who keep them
selves thoroughly posted in the
changes in regulations and tactics
since the war, as well as with the i'm
mense strides in small arms and field
guns necessitating an entire change in
tactics.
In some of the states of the Union
the National Guard is an efficient
body OF troops for the preservation OF
| order and the enforcement Of the laws,
and the endeavor OF those at the
head Is to bring It as nearly as posi-
BILE to the standard Of regular troops.
In their efforts they are handicapped
by the custom obtained among almost
all the states of placing officers on the
stan, with respective ranks OF major,
lieutenant-colonel, brigadier and
major-general, without, In some cases,
any military, war record or services,
of whatever kind, in the National
Guard or elsewhere, and no knowledge
of changes in tactics since the war.
1t is desirable that appointments
should be made from the men who
have given effective service, either in
the field or in the National Guard of
some state, but If they are simply made
to give certain gentlemen military
titles, men who possess no knowledge
to enable them to discharge the duties
that may devolve upon them, then it
were better that there be no such
staff.
Titles are getting cheaper and

The Worlds Fair at Chicago has
been having a tussle with everything
recalcitrant in the country. 1t has
been a handle to more cowardly
threats than any other one thing ever
heard Of before, and serves as an illus
tration of what the kickers would dc
if they had real opportunity. or
course, every patriotic citizen is de-
sirous-even anXious-to see the Col
.umbian Exposition a success. Knowing
this, the agitating elements, domestic
and foreign, threaten to boycott it,
tsrike on it and impede itin all the ways
that devilish ingenuity can suggest, in
order to blackmail their own PROPOSE

Governor LaughtOn has appointed George

has had considerable experience in mat
tiers pertaining to agricultuA, and will
therefore make an acceptable regent. Ex-
Governor Black retains his position as a

For Fair Play

Ruby Miner: Acting Governor Laugh
ton is being shamefully hounded-not as
he says, by the Democratic press, but by
the press Of his own party. With a spirit
of fairness seemingly unknown TO Repub-
lican journals, the Democratic press re-
cognizes the fact that until results are
obtained the follv or wisdom OF the Gov
errors position cannot be demonstrated.
The hue and cry is all about railroads,
and Laughton being their instrument. 1t
is much more susceptible OF proof that
the Journals which are bitterest in their
onsIaughts for this alleged favoritism are
themselves not only extremely partial to
railroads and opposed to Obstructing their
operations, but are, in all probability,
actually subsidized by them. II reIds
well to the honest old granger to have
the railroads denounced In the paper, and
IL doesn't hurt the railroads-therefOre
this species of demagogy is catchy and Is
worked for all there is In II. 1t is equally
popular to make victim Of any man
who is honest and courageous enough to
express his convictions on this point, in
case he Is strong enough to eDdanger the
success OF their own particular coterie.
To revert to the work Of the legislature,
it seems that that body was from the first
opposed TO handicapping the railroads
prObab bly, having realized from the
results IN older states that it was unproiit-
able and unwiSe. Bill after bill was intro
duced and promptly defeated, until one
was finally passed which dlscrlminated IN
favor or certain products OF the field.
The bill was admittedly inefficient
and Illegal and would have worked an
increased hardship on other industries
which had not been especially leglslated
for. This Governor LaughtOn vetoed, to-
getheT with other bills restricting the
right of railroads TO control their own
business, and consequently preiudicial to
their progress and prosperity.
1t Is an open question whether the great
body of the citizens Of this state are not
entirely in accord with the governor in
his position. One class OF people, those
who were favored with discriminating
laws. are, Of course, dissatisfied, and the
political press which have their own can
didates In grooming, bitterly begrudge
him his rising prestige. Otherwise the
governors vetoes are received at least

We object to the Seattle Telegraph
assertion that the HERALD has
"venomously slandered the Democra-

has sought to deal kindly with the

pointed out its faults, not individually
but collectively, as a fulminator of
political dogma. There are so many
Democrats, personally lovable, that to
SANDER them, "venomously," or other
wise, or even TO say harsh things Of
