Spartan Fatherhood.

Only one newspaper in Seattle
the Star--had the temerity to publish
the fact that two of Mayor Humes'
sons had been arrested and locked I'D
in Jail for infraction OF the law. Jay,
one OF the youths, was imprisoned on
charge OF having passed worthless
order containing his fathers name,
and Start, his brother, for having as
saulted the Police Sergeant, while try
ing to secure his release. The latter
was promptly placed under arrest and
locked up with his brother.
1t Is not with a view of passing
upon the gravity of either ofense
that the matter is now recalled, but to
note the fact that crime or misde.
meanor may be passed over in silence
when committed by those with high
connections by papers which claim to
present the news with impartiality, as
we'll as to commend the position taken
by the father of the boys when the
matter was discussed with him, by a
representative OF the Star.
Il am the Mayor of this city," he
said slowly, land am also father and
husband. l believe that father or a
husband who would be deaf to the APP
peals of his children or to the pleadings
of an agonized wife, is not worthy the
name of father, nor deserving of the
love and devotion bestowed upon him.
| believe, likewise, that an official who
allows any personal consideration to
interfere with his official duty, is not fit
to be an official. A Mayor who would
allow his own personal feelings to inter-
fere with his enforcement of the law,
would not be fit to be Mayor. I am
Mayor of this city, and l am no respec-
ter of persons. My personal sorrows
are my own; my personal suffering is
my own; my personal humiliation is my
own; and the sorrows and suffering and
humiliation of those dear to me are
mine to deal with as best can person.
ally. But these things have naught to
do with the Mayor Of this city. The
Mayor of this city is serving in an Of
fetal capacity, and private sorrows.
even though they be in his own family,
cannot and must not interfere with the
Mayor Of this city in the discharge of
his official duties"
These sentiments do honor to the
man. Although the subsequent trial
OF the boys did not result in convic.
ton, and their real names do not ap.
pear upon the record, it is not from
any Interpolation Of the Mayor in
their behalf.

OLYMPIA HAS ANOTHER CHANCE
Representative w. l.. Jones has intro
duced bill in Congress for erection of
q $250,000 public building in Olym-
pia. This has been, however, a con-
cession to each of the States, and Mr..
Jones is not entitled to any special
praise for the act. The appropriation
would probably have been ours years
ago, whom provision was made for
other capitals, had not the Tacoma
push" of Puyallup-Ezra Meeker-
telegraphed to Congressman, while the
bill was pending, that the State CAPT.
tai had not yet been permanently 10.
Gated. The present bill embraces ap-
preparations also of $3.50, 600 for pub
lie building at Everett, and $3.50, 900
for one 1t North Yakima. Just why
the State capital should not rank
with Everett in provision Of quarters
for the Federal officers, does not ap-
phar, but probably Jones will be able
to explain.

CHILDREN May Be Too GooD.-
There may be some justification after
all for the well.worn assertion that
the preachers sons are the "worst
cards in the deck" if We are to place
any faith in the statement OF Prof. A..
H. Yoeder. Of the State University
faculty, before the Spokane County
Teachers Institute lately held at Spo-
kane. He said there WAS danger Of
the American boy or girl becoming
too good; that children brought up
too strictly in the home are led to .
double lie. They should be allowed
to 60 70 school, where they may learn
. certain amount Of meanness. This
is specially true, in the early stages,
when under the influence Of the
mother" This, bear in mind, is from
. Seattle pedagogue, where the child
ron are al naturally inclined to be
angels.

A SUCCESSFUL AIRsHIP.-Au airship

ton of aerial navigation has been set
tied, and Mr.. Rsnbow will enter the
lists as competitor for the 100000
prize at the st. Louis exposition, next
Summer. The airship is Of the bal
