labor unions. All this faction of the
league is anxious to secure the nom
ination OF Mr. Charters. with the pur-
pose Of making him sheriff. This
means that they will favor a postpone
ment of the plan of other league mem
bers to run a third ticket, until, at
least, the result of the democratic pri-
maries, which will be held Thursday
evening, is known. Mr. Charters is a
candidate for the democratic nominal
ton. His friends feel that if the
league should put up "A third ticket it
would be hindered from helping his
election. Economic leaguers were
hustIing yesterday afternoon for cop
les of the registration in the several
wards. Copies were as scarce as
hens teeth, and charges were being
made that the democratic machine
doesn't mean to let single copy out
of IFS possession, except to go where
the law provides copies shall be filed.
The printer who is printing the lists
was seen. He said that he wouldn't
let go of sheet for love or money,
because he had had the strictest or
ders to keep them close. No explana-
tion was made as to why the names
of those who are entitled to vote in
democratic primaries were being mys-
teriously shrouded from prying eyes,
but labor men could be found to say
that the machine is afraid somebody
will make a canvass of the voters and
defeat some of the projects the dem
ocratic organization has in view. At
any rate nothing has recently created
SO much feeling In democratic circles
as the law requiring registration for
primaries, or more accurately, moth
ing has created SO much dissatisfac-
tion as the manner IN which the thing
has been worked to make the ward
men solid in their wards.

from her tiny shoes, stands upon the

feet doubled up beneath her. mo-

little pipe, which holds just tobacco

of smoke. All japanese people sit with
their feet upon the seat of the car, and
not as Europeans do. When the ticket

Etblcal Properties OF words.

Nothing in language il more fascin-
ating than the shades Of meaning
which grow up around a word and
cling to it and then gradually fall
away, making room for, others. No
conspirator will ever plead guilty to
conspiracy. Call it some more accept
able name and he will not object.
Words, that is to say, have moral
character, and the invidiops term is
the one we repudiate with scorn. The
man who prides himself on his close
fstedness would never admit that he
is mean. Tell TIE implacable that he
is resentful and he will plead guilty;
hint that he is vindictiye and he will
slam the door behind him. One word
is invidious. the other is not.-Port-
land Oregonian.

Editor of the Democrat:
In your issue of Friday night COM
munication signed G. G.. implies that
the Hill st Improvement club want
everything on their streets, etc, done
on the instantaneous process" Now,
this is not so; we have no desire to
push improvements in our locality to
the detriment of some other place
that needs it more, If there is any.
Il G. C.,s communication reads very
p1ausibly to those unacquainted with
the situation, but the statements
therein are so misleading I feel as
though I ought to make few expla-
nations
He seems to forget that we were
consolidated with the city by the leg
isIature OF 1899. instead OF seven
months ago. and that for years before
that we were entitled to the privileges
of the city schools by our residence In
the Center school district.
He says that centuries of town gov
eminent left our streets practically
impossible. challenge any man to
show me time during the last Is
years that I remember) when it was
in as bad condition and allowed to re-
main so as during the last two years.
I admit sidewalks are ordered laid on
about 200 feet of Hill street, but about
10 years ago sidewalks were ordered
laid from Summer street to the city
line, and the city did push the work
to completion; the sidewalk viii now
extend to the old city line when com
pleted. ia

on Hill street outside the old city line
in the last 25s years cit certainly was
in frightful condition last winter. The
Hill street people do not want some
thing for nothing, but are willing te
come down handsomely for any i'm.
provement granted them.
What we wondered at was the state.

boards of aldermen and public works
