Call not Heavens curses down

One lone hair upon his crown.

OFFICIAL RECORDS.

The public should remember that, in
considering the case of Henry J. Snivey,
they are dealing with official court rec
ords, and not with mere statements based
upon the belief or the recollection Of indi-
viduals. Such statements may be right
and may be wrong. Even one supported
by affidavits made in good faith may be
wrong. The plain record Of a judicial
proceeding, however, can not be i'm
peached. There is no going behind it, 1t
Is entitled to consideration before any
statement, or mass of statements, that
may be brought together.
The Posr-ISTELLIGEScER does not ask
the people of Washington to Judge Henry
]. Snively by anything that it has said 1t
asks them to judge him by the records
which it published and which were pre-
sented without change or alteration. 1t
asks them to judge him by the affidavit OF
the widow Failon, which adds TO the force
of the public record. More than all, it
asks them to judge him by his own state
ment wherein he admits the possession of
money turned over to him by the Catholic
knights of America almost twelve years
ago for the benefit of the orphan children,
who have never received one penny.

THE CURRENCY LUNATIC AN OLD
FIGURE.

In 1919 in the presidency Of James Mon
roe great commercial crisis occurred
which Frustrated all the industry of the
country for four or five years. At this
time currency theorists arose to anticipate
all the wisdom of later days, and to try to
prove that the people of the United States
could not get out of the continent an
abundance of food, clothing, shelter
and fuel because they had not enough
bits of paper stamped one dollar at
their disposal" The same currency
quack appeared in the land. speculation
days of Jackson's administration, an dur
ing the crash of 1887 under President Van
Buren,, that followed the collapse of the
Western land boom, the same kind of
cranks were heard then that today yex
the air with the cry that il is the business
OF the government TO support the people
instead of the people supporting the gov
ernuent. The land loan scheme of Sena-
tor Stanford and the sub-treasury scheme
OF the Peoples party are all old straw and
were the subject of pamphlet writing in
New York city as early as 1902. There
is nothing new in all these crazy currency
cries; they are always heard from
that class of natural born loafers
and lunatics who go up and down
the world all their DAYS trying TO
devise some scheme by which they can
get something for nothing. They know
that there is unquestionably honey in
clover, but they forget that it takes a bee
to get it out. They are not willing TO
work like bee to get honey out of clover
and lay it up in the hive; they prefer to
brood over the visionary project of get
ting sunbeams out of cucumbers. The
bee knows better than waste his time on
the solution of this problem, but the
quack prefers to spend his days setting
cucumber traps to catch sunbeams rather
than 70 work man fashion to get money
even as the bee does 10 get honey.

in that campaign in order to prove
Mitchell an adulterer and therefore unfit
to sit in the United States senate, and yet
it is astonished that the PosT-lSIELLI-
GEScER should quote the court rec
ords Of West Virginia to prove the

ton of this eccentric view, viz, that

BATTLE, THURSDAF. OCT. 27.
HE STILL HAS 1T.

Democratic orators are endeavoring to
make their hearers believe that Henry j.
SniveIy holds receipts for the money paid
him by the Catholic Knights of America
for the benefit of the Fallon orphans.
Possibly there may be some who believe
this, but they must be of the threading
and unthinking class.
Mr.. Snively admits in his statement that
he still holds the money of four of these
orphans. The one who was paid became
OF age long before Mr.. Sniveiy's failure
and subsequent flight from West Virginia.
That money was not included in the judy
ment against him sIx years ago, and has
nothing to do with the point at issue.
The truth of the matter is simply this:
Mr.. Snively received that money from the
Catholic Knights of America. By his own
admission he still holds the portions Of
four Of the orphans. No amount of Demo-
cratic oratory can get around that stub
born fact

There is one feature OF the state campaign
that charscterlzss the election canvass as being
somewhat discinctively original N politics.
The Democratic papers Ene nothing in their
candidate for governor that calls forth any COM

only recourse lies in the attempt 70 defame the
Republican candidate, Hon. John H. AeGraw.
Their attempts have proved abortive aui the

OREGON AND THE CANAL.

There is little question that the Repub-
lean ticket would be defeated in this state
if the voters of Oregon could determine
the result of the election. Oregon and
Pierce county are apparently in close ALI
ance against the state of Washington.
They both agree that an appropriation by
the government for the construction of the
Lake Washington canal would be very
bad thing, and they are both exerting all
their efforts TO prevent the election OF Nc
Graw, Wilson and Doolitt!e, whom they
regard as the representatives Of the canal.
Oregon has, for many years, captured
appropriations for public improvements
in remote and out-of-the-way places. 1t
has done this without question. Hundreds
of thousands of dollars have been sunk
in the coves. inlets and rivers of the Ore
gon coast which. if devoted to the Columbia
river, would have opened that stream many
years ago. The howl raised about the con-
struction of the Lake Washington canal
interfering with other public improve
ments is simply an anti-Seattle cry raised
by those who are jealous of the progress
and prospects of this city. As has been
said. if the money devoted to Yaguina
bay. Coos bay and half a dozen other
streams and harbors in Oregon, had been
applied to the Columbia river improve
ment, there would now have been no need
of urging appropriations in behalf Of that
stream.
Oregon dominated Washington for SO
many years that it is hard for it to give up
the practice. 1t is therefore not surpris-
ing that Oregon politicians have seized
upon this opportunity to make an alliance
with the enemies of Seattle within our own
state, and are willing to sacrifice the Re-
publican party in the hope of working an
injury to this city.

ingman's friend.
Workingmen, however. shouli not for
get that the man who asks for their votes
in Washington betrayed them in West
Virginia. They should not forget that at
sis on the night that he left that state he
filed deeds of assignment in which he pro-
tected his own family and his wealthy
creditors and left the workingmen to
whom he was indebted to suffer.
If Mr.. Sniyely cares to deny this fact the
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES will take pleasure in
publishing the deeds which he filed for
record on the night OF his flight.
