NEPOTISM is BARRED.
School Directors Cannot Get Jobs for
Relatives.

Attorney General Douglas has rem
dered an opinion on the law governing
the choice of teachers for district
schools in which he holds that no per-
son who has relative on the school
board may be chosen as teacher
without the assent of all the members
of that board. The opinion comedies
with one recently given by the assist
ant attorney general
The opinion results from the peculiar
action of district school board that
wished to avoid the law regarding rel
atives, but did not thoroughly under
stand it, An application for appoint
ment as teacher was received from a
young lady related to member of
the board. The member at once re-
signed and his successor was chosen.
The application was granted, after
which the new member resigned in
turn and the old member was reinstat-
ed. The attorney holds that the &C.
tion of the board was illegal.

Of Eastern Washington should vote

Republican prosperity has raised the
price of their products. Expansion
has enlarged their markets and added
new ones. The immense additions to
our Pacific trade have increased ocean

furnished new market also for Wash

farmers have discovered this durin g
the past season, when they found a
splendid market on this Coast. AL
though this has increased their profits

prosperity long unknown, it is now
argued that. the rise in the ocean rates,
coincident with larger increase in
