had in mind when he wrote that
article. If the proposed home for
widows and orphans were put on its
feet by the people of Walla Walla
county, it would be only short time
until the institution would receive aid
from the state legislature and become
a state institution. AS the state be-
came older and more densely popu-
lated a home for INDECENT orphans will
become an absolute necessity and
Walla Walla can secure the location
Of that home here by making the stub
blefeld home the nucleus for a great
state institution.
The Ladies' Relief Society has offer
ed to give property valued at $4,000
toward the $4,000 bonus that must be
raised to secure the location of the
home in Walla Walla The county
commissioners should see their way
clear to provide the remainder of the
amount required. The Statesman has
published strong judicial authority in
support of the legal power of the com.
missioners to make such an appropria-
ton. Not a line of law or authority
has been cited to the contrary. A
large majority of the heavy taxpayers
Of the county would approve such an
appropriation. The commissioners
will meet next Monday to discuss the
proposition and 1t is to be hoped that
their decision will be favorable.
However, If the commissioners
should refuse to aid the proposed
Stubblefeld home, there should be
sufficient public spirit, and enterprise,
to say nothing of charity and hui
mainly, among the wealthy citizens Of
Walla Walla to raise the $4,000 requir-
ed in addition to the value of the prop
erty offered by the Relief Society. As
Senator Ankeny's paper says this
morning, eff the wealth-burdened rich
cannot find relief in any other way
they might try giving some of it away.
Not as a blessing to other people but
simply as relief to themselves. :"
ball rolling. Example is more power
ful than precept, you know. Under
the terms of the Stubblefied will the
time for raising the $4,000 bonus re-
quired if the home is to be located in
Walla Walla expires on November
Goth. If anything is to be done to-
wards raising the amount it must be
done quickly. 1t will be an everlast-
ing shame and disgrace to the city if
the home should be allowed to go else
where because of the selfishness and
niggardlness of the wealthy citizens
Of this city These citizens should re-
member that faith without works is
vain and that it would be as easy for
a camel to pass through a needles
eye without stopping as for a rich
man to get into heaven without stoop-
ing or rather rising to deeds of unos-

PUNISH DELINQUENT VOTERS.

There is a bill before the Canadian
parliament to disfranchise for six years
any person who does not poll his
vote. The purpose of the provision is
to punish the man who makes mer-
chandise of his ballot, and refuses to
poll it until he has been bought" by
taking his wares away from him for
the next election; and also to spur
I'D the Indifferent citizen who thinks
that there is nothing in the then pend
ing contest worthy of his distinguish
ed attention.
If the action of the clause can be SO
limited as to hit only these two clas-
ses. there will not be much public
mourning at the resultant narrowing
of the franchise. The man who re-
CARDS his vote, as a purchasable COM
modify certainly should have it taken
away from him. 1t is not just to
other citizens that he should retain
the power to kill their ballots with
his insincere and mercenary vote.
Then the Indifferent man is a real
only that he can often be stamped at
the last moment into casting mis-
chievous ballot on a side issue; but
when he stays at home and tOasts his
shins on election day he offers to the
photographer" an easy chance to cast
a vote for him. He is we'll known to
the political "heelers' and they feel
perfectly safe in forging his ballot. II
he does not intend to vote, it is GER
tainly only fair to those who do that
he should remove his name from the
voters list; and if he is too lazy or un-
patriotic to do this in the interest
Of clean election-a thing in which
he usually processes to be profoundly
interested-then surely the law is not
overstepping the bounds in proposing
to do it for him.
The voter who is absent for good
reasons should, however, have an OPP
pOrtunity to state them, and recover
his right of franchise This will be
the difficult part of the law to frame.
There will be a reluctance to leave
to any party, board or official the right
to say whether the reasons given by
the defaulting voter are good ones.
But it ought not to be beyond the in
genuity of the lawmakers to devise
some means Of disarming the bribe-
taker and the conceited victims of
lofty Indifference.

THE ROGERS MONUMENT.

The patrons of the Times will be
very glad to know that the subscrip-
tons required to erect a monument
to the memory of the late John R.
Rogers, governor of Washington at
the time of his death, have practically
reached contamination, says the
Seattle Times
The committee of which Professor
J. M. Layhue of Puyallup was made
secretary and treasurer, undertook to
raise $4,000 to erect a suitable monu-
ment to the memory Of the late gov
ernor and to place the same upon the
capitol grounds in Olympia.
Prof. Layhue informs the Times
that the present subscriptions now
reach $1,000 thus requiring but 5000
| to make good"
The last subscription received was
sent to the editor of the Times by the
Hon. Hollon Parker Of Walla Walla-
the man who prides himself upon be-
| ing a farmer sometimes and a Lin.
coin republican all the time.
Elsewhere in ohis issue of the Sun
day Times, upon page 5, may be found
Mr.. Parker's short, crisp, patriotic
and characteristic letter, remitting
| his fifty dollar subscription to the
| monument fund.
Nothing could be more pleasing to
| the friends of the late governor than
| this information.
Had the family of Governor Rogers
been able to erect a monument to his
| memory they would have willingly
extended more than a moiety there
of to accomplish this end unaided.
But Governor Rogers was a poor
man so far as this worlds goods go
Nevertheless, he was so rich in intel
| lectual endowment-in honesty of pur
pose and patriotic sentiment, that
| the people of this state. over whose at
fairs Gov. Rogers presided with such
patriotic ardor and integrity are more
than proud Of the opportunity to place
before the world this monument which
will be a reminder of political hon
esty and public integrity for genera
| tons to come.

STATE HOME FOR ORPHANS.

Patrick Henry Winston, former a
torney general of the state, says in
recent issue of his always entertain
ing weekly:
There is at Chehalis, in this
state. a reform school to which
boys and girls are committed. 1t
is a state institution. Boys and
girls are sent there by the courts
to be reformed. 1t is a sort OF
middle ground between a peniten-
tiary and an orphan asylum.
Some years ago, the writer, in
company with the governor Of the
state. visited this school. The in
mates were brought into the
chapel to listen to a speech from
made a brief speech His heart
was too sad for utterance. 1t was
the most touching and the most
pitiable spectacle he ever beheld
Inquiry developed the fact that a
number of the inmates Of the in
stitutiOn had committed no Of
Tense, but were there simply be-
cause they were poor and friend
less and had no other home. They
We're orphans. The writer was
greatly shocked. at learning this,
and then and there he entered his
solemn protest against a system
which Unfortunately mixed up
the poor unfortunate orphans
with criminals. He remembered
that in his own state of North
Carolina, at Oxford, situated on
commanding eminence in a large
grove whose trees are centuries
old stands the Oxford orphan
asylum.
Although it is a Masonic insti-
tuition. no discrimination is made
in favor of the orphans of Ma
sons; all friendless orphans in the
state are welcomed across its
charitable portals. Once year
the writer used to deliver lecture
and send the entire proceeds to
the Oxford orphan asylum Being
a poor man he had no other way
of contributing to this charitable
institution. His motives were
not entirely unselfish. He thought
that it was possible that some
day his own children might be OBJ
jects of charity, and that he was
casting bread upon the waters:
and that even if that were not to
happen. that when he was dead
perhaps some unhappy orphan
some poor Indian, some friendless
negro would come to his grave and
looking upon it declare:
He was a just man"
We do not know whether the
system of mixing friendless Or
phans with criminals still con-
unues at the reform school. If it
does, it should be stopped. This
state should have an orphan
asylum to which all poor orphans
should be admitted. If the state
will not build one, some charitable
order should. 1t would be a monu-
ment, more enduring than all
others.
The noble charity provided by t
Will of the late Joseph Stubblefe
was intended to endow just such
home for orphans as Editor Winstc

there were many grafters, touts,
thieves and thugs in the city during
the week looking for a chance to do
almost anything to raise money, from
picking pocket to sandbagging men

committed, owing to the vigilance of
the police force. This splendid show
