THE GAMBLERS WILL TEST THE LAW.
AT Spokane, it is said scheme ha 8
been suggested and favorably consid.
cred to institute q test of the gambling
act soon as it goes into effect. The
plan is to have case in the courts to
ascertain the validity OF the act; to
institute proceedings. have victim
selected who will run the chances-for
a consideration, of course-of landing
behind prison doors, with the stipula-
ton that when arrested cash bail will
be put up; if convicted in the lower
court, the matter will be appealed, and
while it is pending. the straw.man will
quietly skip the country. 1t is said
the gamblers figure that the State,
having established the validity of the
law, will not make . vigorous effort
for securing the fugitive, and that if he
is found, that it may be difficult to
secure extradition from q State where
gambling is at most only a misde-
meanor. 1t is thought that the test
case will be started in either Seattle,
Tacoma or Spokane, and that the best
legal talent in the State will be EN-
ployed to break the statute.

FRIDAY EVENING. APRIL 3, 1909.
Democrats, What Of the Night?

Judge Alton b. Parker, OF New York
Is Just now the most prominent candi-
date in the Democratic eye for the
nomination in 1904 for the Presidency
bat then, a year, a month, or dav
may depose a popular idol and place
some other god on the vacant pedestal.
The West, it may be said, will be
pleased with any good man, and as
Cleveland, and lately Hill, do not seem
to appear in that classification, Mr..
Parker would receive warm acclaim
ont here, where principle is still held
in some degree OF respect.
Parker is said to be man OF high
ideals, commanding the regard of
following which judges OF the fitness
OF a candidate 10y what he represents
in principle and not the availability
which results from crAitiness of the
politician.
The signs in New York point to
Democratic victory, but it ia not for
those who have SO arrogantly dictated
the policy OF the State, and at times
labored with very questionable de-
gree of sincerity for its success. The
question OF taxation is making trouble
with the Republican party there, as it
is almost everywhere else. The mil
lionalres have "sworn Off their per-
sonal property assessments, in utter
disregard of right, justice, or the posi-.
bic effect it may ultimately have on
the safety OF capital, and the environ.
ment which must come, soon or late,
to its owners. The time is rapidly
passing when feathers Of tons weight
can be piled upon the patient camel's
back. Rockefeller, Astor and Schwab
can hardly afford to take the risk. It
would be so easy for them to pay, on
the same basis OF valuation as the poor
man, without greater effort than
drawing check, that it is truly as
founding they aaunt the red flag of
defiance in the eyes of the laboring
millions, who, if they only knew their
power, would use and make it effective
at the ballot-box.
Place no more trust-bound rulers in
high places. Foster the rights of the
people. Beware of parties which while
adopting platform in accord with
popular sentiment, do it with a closed
optic implying an understanding that
each candidates pledge only lasts till
ths popular ballot close., and it is
part OF the contract that while they
must in the assembly live up to its
terms, they may make something on
"the side" by selling their votes on
other questions for money, or its equiv.
alent in party promises or railroad
passes. The experience OF Our State
just closed is in point. No more de.
liberate, palpable and absolute betrayal
OF trust was ever made, and from all
quarters comes evidence that it has
caused the scales to fall from the eyes
OF an over-credulous public.
The party that has been true to
principle through prolonged defeat
gives the best evidence of honesty OF
intent, and We believe that fact, ma.
tionally as we'll as locally, has been
quite effectively beaten into popular
comprehension.

The Admiral Again Talks Too Much

II the Germans knew Admiral Dew
ey as we'll as the Americans do, they
would pay very little attention to his
Jaw bone maneuvers. Strange as it
may seem. he can handle a warship
with much more grace, ease and ef.
fectivenes,, than his own tongue The
interviews published of his u,terances
couple Of years ago, when he was for
a very brief period talked of as a pos
sib.e candidate for President, forever
cooked his goose as politician or a
statesman, in this country; but on the
quarter deck he is simply a genius,
possessing Just the boldness, dash and
decision which wins victories. In this,
he was somewhat the counterpart of
Grant, who was failure in business
and a child in politics, until he at
tanned fame on the battlefield which
surmounted all the obstacles to per-
sonal ambition. Both OF these men
had that characteristic OF soldiers,
known by the American colloquialism,
grit.
The other day the Admiral. in an
interview published by a Newark, N.
]. paper, made some sighting allusion
to the comparative efficiency of the
German and American navies.
The German papers are all ailame
over the matter, and retaliate by just
as Objectionable innuendoes, if, as they
claim, Boosting of relative strength
between friendly powers is in execrable
taste. One of these papers declares
that "the Admiral's words confirm the
belief OF Germans that the United
States easy victory over Spain has
produced a certain aggravating militia
~ selfconceit."
This incident, unimportant in itself,
affords most remarkable indication
of the prejudice that existed, some
time ago. on the part of the President
against Gen. Miles for expressing an
opinion of the injustice done Admiral
Schley by the court of inquiry, which
resulted in public insult by Roose.
welt to the General, in the White
House, and the contrast afforded by
treatment of Admiral Dewey for just
the same DEMONSTRATING too much
on matters OF political importance.
In this instance he called upon Dewey
for an explanation. Dewey admitted
that he had said that the Caribbean
Sea maneuvers were more OF an object
lesson to the Kaiser than any other
person, but declared that he meant no
offense thereby. The explanation, dis
patches state, was entirely satisfactory
to the President, and should Baron
Won Sternberg call the governments
attention to the matter the Admins
tration will be in a position to show
that even oil of vitriol may be made to
pass as an emollient by declaring it to
be oil or sweet cider. The fact is, Gen.
Miles might have come in line for the
Presidential succession, while Admiral
Dewey had forever spoiled his chances
by talking too much.
