PrOfessOr-WhO was the first man
Student-That is a mystery wrapped
in such impenetrable darkness that the
wisest philosophers or the most an
cient historian is utterly al a loss to
solve it.
Professionals it certain that there
ever was a first man?
Student-That is question, which
in the absence of data, is equally i'm

Professor think that is gotten
from the same forbidden book and is
without any authority whatever in the
public schools of this state.
Professor-How account for immor-
atty in human life. Who was the first
sinner?
Student-History gives no account
of the origin of human life
Professor-Since sin is a transgres-
sion of the principles of right and
since there is no fixed standard of
right revealed to men which we are
allowed to use in the public, schools
how are public morals to be taught
to the pupils?
Student-Every one must determine
that for himself according to his own
caprice.

PrOfessorAWhen did he live?
Student-Of that we are not certain.
JOsephus speaks in a line or two Of
him. And Pliny makes a very brief
reference to him. But these are about

beginning of the Christian era who

may be allowed to quote from that
same forbidden book
PROFESSIONALISM can you say of the
Jewish people who claim to have re-

Wilson Was DisIoyal.
John l.. Wilson's disloyalty to Pres
ton is not entirely forgotten among the
republicans Of this county 1t came at
a critical period of the contest The
Ankeny leaders were openly claiming
that number of the King county SEN
ators We're dislOyal and would go over
to Ankeny whenever that course was
demanded of them. This story was re-
peated to Preston who refused to give
he investigate it for himself. For a
time he declined to do so.
Then there began to be circulated
the report that the senators were act
ualy negotiating with Ankeny for
terms for their betrayal of their own
candidate. This story also was car
ried to Mr.. Preston and by him dis
credited. But these stories were injur-
ing PrestOn'S strength by discouraging
his supporters outside of King county
So to secure documentary evidence
with which to disprOve them Preston
invited a conference with the sena-
tors
This conference was held in one of
the rooms of the Preston headquarters
on the evening of Monday, January
26. In the course of it Mr. Preston
stated that he had heard these stories
but that he did not credit them. but
that he desired some authority from
them with which to effectually refute
them. He then asked them to sign q
statement that they would not vote for
Ankeny. This the senators refused to
do. They were asked for explanations
and replied that they might decide to
vote for Ankeny rather than prolong
the contest. They were then asked if
they had been negotiating with Mr.
Ankeny or bis supporters and replied
that they had

Nursery.

Rev. j. II. Lelper, field secretary OF
the Northwest Sabbath association
who will conduct a conference at the
First Presbyterian church in this city
Tuesday afternoon and evening, is an
ardent advocate of using the bible in
the public schools. In advancing his
argument in favor. of it he handles the
subject as follows:
Class in Theology.
Professionalism can you say of the
origin of matter?
Student-The most reliable informal
ton attainable from accessible sources
reveal the following facts: First.
There never was beginning Second.
Cosmos wos homogeneous and undif-
ferentiated and some how or other
evolution began and molecules APP
peared.
ProfessOr-How did light originate
Observation-Disclosures evolved proto-
plasn1, and rhythmic thrills arose and
then there was light.
Professor-What was the origin af
life?
Student-A spirit of energy was de-
veloped and formed the plastic cell,
whence arose the primordal germ and
the primordal germ became protogene
IA m a
eocene; then there was the dawn of
life.
Professor-How do you account for
the origin of man?
Student-By the survival of the fit
simiods from the jelly-fish and the 81
MODS differentiated themselves into
the anthromorphitic primordial type.
In due time one lost his tail and be-
came man and behold, he was the most
cunning of all animals
Student-Is there any other account
of the origin of matter and the be-
ginning of the race of men?
PrOfessor-Yes, there is another ac-
count in a book called The Bible which
requires a far simpler faith to accept
and even appeals far more powerful
ly to human reason than the theory
just given, but here in this state named
for the father of his country we are
not permitted as teachers in the pub
lie schools TO give it as authority in
anything.

Wilson Advised Them,

Mr. Powell asked them WHY they
had done so and they replied that they
had been advised by friends of Mr.
Perston to take that course in order
10 secure support for a King county
candidate this year. Asked who
among Mr.. Prestons friends had ad-
Vised such d course they named Holm

After this conference, the particu-
lars of it were related to the writer
by Mir. Powell. The fact that Mr. Will
son had so advised the senators be-

published at the time in the papers

TRAITORS IN THE SADDLE
sETRAyeRs OF PRESTON ARE
URGING SEATTLE VOTERS
TO SUPPORT MEAD.
Are Working in the Interest Of John
/. Wilson. Whose Ambition is
the Senate.

SEATTLE. Wash. oct. 3l-All the
republican political leaders of King
county who participated prominently
in the betrayal and defeat of Harold
Preston in the senatorial contest OF
1903 have combined in a conspiracy TO
secure control of the patronage OF the
county for the senatorial contest OF
1905. Under the inspiration OF THESE
false leaders of the past, so-called
business men are walking the streets
of the city urging business men to
pledge their support to Albert F..
Mead. the gubernatorial candidate of
the Great Northern railroad and sup
ported by the very men and interests
instrumental in Preston's defeat
Chief of the betrayers of Preston is
John l.. Wilson. owner of the Post
mtelligencer who, in the 1903 con-
test. advised the King county senators
to enter into negotiations With the
Ankeny senators looking to securing
support for Mr.. Wilson as King coun-
tvs candidate in the coming contest.
Acting under this advice the senators
did enter into such negotiations, de-
serted the cause of their own candi-
tributed to Mr.. Ankeny's election. Mr..
Wilson's purpose. in organizing the
present conspiracy is. as is We'll known,
t. boost himself into the senate,
crowdine out Samuel H. Piles. the
countys regularly endorsed candidate.
With MI Wilson in the present con-
spiracy are state Senator A. T. Van
de Nanter. that south district para
gon of political virtue, who. at the con-
clusion Of the last senatorial contest,
addressed letter to The Times. in
which he assumed the entire respon-
Sihility for Preston's betrayal and an
nounced that eventually the people of
the county would approve OF what he

Nauter's prognostication has been

convention of May 3 did approve of
that action, by Inference at least, by
turning over the patronage of that
convention, nominations for county
and legislative Offices. to Nj. Van de
Nanter ana his fellow members of the
last legislature who deserted Preston.
Aiding and assisting Wilson and
Van de Nanter are John Wooding of
Auburn, who remained at olympia
during the last session as an Ankeny
lobbyist; the five unfathful members
of the legislature who have been re-
nominated this year; Chairman

y central committee. and a host of
lesser lights who draw their political

An unusually large movement is ex-
pected as the result of the low rates to
Boston and return, which will be in
effect for that occasion via the North
Western Line from all points west and

The present indications point to a
larger attendance than at any encamp-
ment that has been held for several
years, as these low rates offer an excel
lent opportunity to visit the mountains
and seashore resorts of the eastern
states.
Special through car arrangements
will be provided from a large lumber
