enough that for years republican legis
latures in this state have been repud-
fatiug the pledges made in party plat
forms to regulate railroad rates and
fares. Every platform made by the
party in state convention since the ad-
mission Of the state has made such a
pledge. but after securing a ma jOrity
in the legislature on the strength of
hypocritical promises, the pledge has
been basely repudiated.
Jones lacked the moral courage to
take any stand on the commission
question until he felt quite sure that
the anti-M Bride forces would control
the republican state convention and
then he felt safe in expressing his SYM
pathy with the railroads.
Two years ago he sat on the fence
until he received an ultimatum from
the Mcbride forces to the effect that
unless he brought the Yakima delega-
ton into line for the commission his
denomination would be opposed. He
then came off the fence and lost no
time in having the votes of Yakima
county cast for the commission plank.
The Yakima delegation to the repub-
Iican state convention that met at Ia
coma today was not instructed on the
commission question, but is known to
be opposed to Mcbride. However, it
would vote for Mcbride and an APP
pointive commission if Jones found
it necessary to save his political scalp.
The true friends of a commission in
both political parties should hereafter
count Jones with the opposition and
should vote accordingly.

no REVOLUTION IN RUSSIA.

People who think Russia is near dis
solution as an autocracy and that the
existing order Of things is threatened
by the reVerses suffered at the hands
Of the Japs overlook the fact that IN
less the army can be detached from
loyalty to the car, it is vain to eX-
pect second edition of the French
revolution at St Petersburg or Mos
COW. The element of constitutional
monarchists is, as yet small and hest
tant; the various groups of nihiIists
still quote Turguenteffs L feel sur
rounded in Russia by a smell of put
refaction-by the tendency toward
nothing" and they continue to plot
for coId-blooded ciphers; the socialists
seek d change with more substantial
outcome, on the basis of their peculiar
creed; the democrats want a national
assembly and universal suffrage. The
overwhelming majority of the popuIa
tion the moujiks or peasantry, know
little of constitutions and political
freedom, and they will not revolt I'M
less they lose their generally child
like faith in the white Gar"
SO there you are "a vast population
of European Russia with only a small
minority favoring q constitutional
monarchy; a majority element who
cannot be moved to a career of vio-
lence unless they see a Jew, and a
handful of nihilistic assassins who
work underground to make an end of
all existing government, with no con-
| ception of what they will put in it's
| place. Local disturbances and trouble
| there may be, from the nihilists chief
ly, but the conditions are not favorable
| for any general movement looking to-
| ward important changes in the Rus
sian government. The inertia of the
mass is too great

RIVAL RAILROAD BOSSES.

\ lifelong democrat, J. D. Farrell,

delegates from King county named by

Farrell. who is back of Piles candi-

of its political bureau. Stevenson pre-
tends to favor Senator aker of Klicki-
tat county, a railroad automaton, as a
candidate for governor but in fact he
fayors the nomination Of b. D. Croker.
In this desire he has the support of

PUBLICITY IS THE PROPER THING

The work of bringing about a
greater degree of publicity of trust and
corporation affairs goes bravely on.
Today the people know more in gen
eral about the affairs of the giant COM
lines than they ever knew before. The
cry for publicity has spread and the
desire for it has grown apace since
the time when President Roosevelt
first touched upon the matter and ar
gued that as a first step towards trust
control and elimination of trust evils
we should acquire a better knowledge
of the minor workings of the COM
panies.
There is no way by which the public
can look into the secret councils of the
big companies. The Standard Oil
company has never made a public
statement of income or expenses and it
is doubtful if it could be made to. But
we can at least hammer on the outer
gates and raise such a disturbance as
Will direct public attention that way
and we can emphasize any particular
evils that stand out prominently.
Along this line a financial paper
noted for its conservatism, the Wall
Street Journal, prints an article giving
the names of some prominent citizens
of New York who are in the pOolroom
business, a rather low form of gam
bling Russell Sage and George Gould,
ChaunCey DepeW, J. PierpOnt Morgan
these worthless. To be sure, these men
do not stand out on Broadway and
steer the public in, but they are di-
rectors of the Western Union Tele-
graph company, which aids and abets
the poOlrOOm business in every way.
About $50 poolrooms are said to be
going, and the earnings from these
places, it is asserted amounts to no
less than $3,o0O,00O, or 10 per cent of
ne N'iliIHhE : tCtt'I COL iilll77 - s'D'''I
$30,000,0o0 per annum.
The point about the whole matter is
that just at the time when there is
much talk of keeping the lid down"
in New York one OF the trusted sub
ordinates Of the Western Union is
making every effort to take the lid off
by extending the poolroOm business of
the company. 1t is utter absuriity to
suppose that the twenty nine honor
able gentlemen who make up the COM
panys directorate do not know this.
Very recently there was an unsavOry
gas bill up at Albany and the names
of the wealthy men who stood to bene-
fit, by its passage appeared in print,
that all might know the exact situa-
ton.
Perhaps it is too much to hope that
this will accomplish material good at
once. but it is all in line with the gem
eral desire for publicity and it cannot
be doubted that when a bad deal is
being put through it is a good plan to
print the names of the high tinauciers
who while they do not directly stoop
to soil their hands, are nevertheless in
great measure responsible for the evil.

pearl embroideries cost 900; the dia-
mond dewdrops which represented the
embroidered wheat ears, $4,000 more;
the emeralds on the corsage were SAT- 900;
the jeweled feathers in the hair added
$500 to the total sum; the fan cost $780,
and the diamond slippers were each 500
apiece; while the necklace, bracelet and
tiara were valued at $400,000, making a
total of over $780, 900 worn by one woman
at one time.
The gown was made to suggest moon
light on spring night, and the simmer
ing satin was yelled with cloth Of silver
embroidered all over in a design of wheat
ears in pearls and diamonds. The cor.
sage Of sheer silver tulle had a wide
stom acher Of emeralds, and the court train
was held in place with epaulettes of jew
els. The tiara rivaled the crown worn by
the queen in beauty, and necklaces of
diamonds and emeralds sparkled and
| flashed about the neck.
| The process Of sewing rare jewels on
| a gown is rather complicated and is done
by a jeweler. Each jewel is set in golf
and to the back of the setting Is at
tached small pin or screw hook. which
pierces the material and is fastened or
the under side. Each stone must be
fastened in several places, so that il
will be secure even If torn loose at one
place.

ence Is not one of unmixed qualification.
We all Of us like to be well thought Of.
Andsfor a mother who has thought pretty
well of herself for years-eVen II she
has not owned ito be called to order
by her young daughter for fault in
pronunciation or in grammar or for the
cut OF her skirt or the sort of stock she
wears or the old-fashioned way in which
she does her hair is not the pleasantest
experience one could select If one were
searching for pleasant experiences.
Yet such medicine is good for the soul.
1t is part of the heroic treatment that
is to save one from becoming a back
number AS soon as one reaches the
point where criticism is resented and ig-
nored, growth and improvement are prac-
tically at an end.
The other day I saw one woman who
declines such physic She is perhaps 80
years old, and she has in her the possi-
bility Of being an attractive woman. Her
figure is somewhat inclined to redundancy,
but this same f1eshiness does away with
wrinkles and her face is as smooth and
rosy as that of a child. Her hair, which
is still! plentiful, she wears in flowing
curls. because she wore them like that
when she first met her husband, some
forty odd years ago. This gives her a
rather singular appearance in this day OF
more conventional coiffures, and her dress
does not make her look less odd.
For one thing, she INDUCES In shirt
waists, and this is an articles of attire
| that the middle aged woman should deny
| herself If she is stout Her corset was
| decidedly not of the straight-front var1.
I ETY.. She also wore a short skirt-anothel
| garment that is never becoming to large
| woman. In imitation Of the young girl:
| whom she had seen wear four-in- hant
| ties, this woman had put on a turn-doWI
,collar and a made-ap four In hand. APP
parently she was entirely contented will
herself, but it would have been an ex
ceptionally dutiful son or daughter wht
! would with pride have introduced her t
strangers. Yet had her dress been criti
cized. no matter how kindly, her feeling
would have been hurt deeply And TO
that reason her family endures the morti
fication of her eccentric aspect, loving
her too dearly to wound her by wor'
of dsparagement or even Of advise.
The mother need not Of necessity b
obliged to entertain in an elaborate fash
ion, any more than she must dress in gor
geous attire. But she should make he
childrens friends welcome to the famil
, table, she should know what are their In
terests and ambitions, she should pa
5 enough attention to her own dress to b
; sure that she will appear we'll in the eye
of her family and of others. She shout
2 share the pursuits Of her sons and daugh
2 tiers so far as she can. The lectures an
} concerts and clubs that interest the1
should claim her interest. She shout
join in their outdoor occupations. Sh
should fish with them, row with then
walk with them, wheel with them.
