of shots shows that guns were plen-

riety several years ago by an atrocious
lynching and the spirit of its citizens

continue to go on the warpath they will
create the impression that the bad man.

1t seems that Andrew Carnegie has been
misquoted regarding those who die rich.

wealth and dies without having used it

public verdict will be: 1.-THE man who
dies thus rich dies disgraced." Notice
that the public will say he is disgraced.

and when the gladiators of finance are
worsted in a spectacular battle in that
arena which is the pit the populace turns
its thumbs down. Still, John w. Gates
is not believed to trouble himself great
deal over what the people think of hill
and his heavy losses in this wheat car
paign will not keep him out of mischief
in the future. He Is not the man to "holler

If the city council sitting as com.
mittee of the whole next Tuesday
adopts the recommendations made by
Mayor Hunt in the future there viii
be a different system of paying bills
contracted by the water department
Last night when the council convened
in adjourned session the first matter
called up was a message from the
mayor relative to the subject, which
was as follows:
The Honorable Council of the City OF
Walla Walla, Walla Walla, Wash
ington-
Gentlemen: 1 am not quite salts
fled with the method of paying the bills
in the water department. AS it orig
ministration, 1 nave not felt like rec
ommending any change until the pres
ent time. AS the matter stands a,
the present time the water registrar
deposits all of the receipts from the
water department. with the city treas
urer and takes his receipt for the
same. When bills are to be paid he
makes request on your honorable
body for a warrant drawn on the wa
ter fund payable to himself. The funds
so obtained he deposits in the bank
and checks from the amount as re-
quired. This is a cumbersome and
unsatisfactory method of doing bus
mess.
What 1 recommend is this:
That a separate and distinct warrant
be issued for the use of the water
department, payable only from the wa
ter fund;
That the bills be approved by the
water committee and then presented
to your Honorable body for action
These warrants to be signed by the
mayor and clerk and countersigned by
the water registrar.
l believe to adopt a system similar
to what l have outlined will be great
saving of time and more satisfactory
to all parties concerned, and I request
that you authorize the procuring of
the necessary water fund warrants
for use by the water department..
Very Respectfully,
GILBERT HUNT,

SWIFT PACE SET BY DOUGLAS.
Shoe Man Lavish With His Money In
Campaign.

BOSTON, Mass, Sept. Ex-Governor
Douglass, who set such an extravagant
pace in the last campaign, has made it
almost impossible for any of his prom
ment democratic associates to follow
him. He spent lots of money a year
ago, and now he mas refused to be in
the race again, and the wheelhorses
of the party are all in a mood to de-
cline simply on the score of expense
Being business man and having an
ambition to become governor of the
old bay state Mr.. Douglas SET about
to introduce himself as political
quantity as he would introduce new
line of shoes. He spent money freely
and wasted not a dollar The election
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1905-09-23
last year cost Governor Douglas al

last year cost Governor Douglas at
least $4,000.
In view of this unwilingness of the
trained politicians to enter upon a
campaign which has but little nope of
success and would involve so much
personal expenditure to follow the
pace to which the workers have ac-
customed themselves, there has been
a suggestion that democrats may go
to the other extreme and institute a
campaign with a candidate who not
only mas no money at all, but who
would appeal to the people on purely
sentimental grounds.
The result is that there is at least
an even chance for General Nelson A.
Miles. He is an accredited citizen of
Massachusetts now, and has added to
the halo which surrounded his SER
vices in the civil war the more local
radiance of a year at the head of the
Massachusetts militia.

CunciI Also Wan+ Chance,

1t was evident from the remarks
made by the councilmen that they also
desired change made in the manner
of handling the bills of the department
and it was decided to refer the mes
sage to the council as a committee of
the whole, which meets at the water
office next Tuesday morning at 9
o'clock.
Objected to Bill.
Just before the council adjourned a
bill was presented by the water de-
partment calling for $4,000 to pay
for material and expenses of maxi
ing the surveys in connection with the
proposed new water supply system.
The bill was ordered paid, after which
Councilman Bridges called the atten-
ton of the council to the fact that
the bill did not present an itemized
account of the expenses. He objected
to the bill. He was backed up by
Councilman Glasford, who stated that
he was under the impression that the
bill for making the surveys had been
paid. After a brief discussion the
mayor stated that it was just such
bills that prompted him to submit his
message relative to the water de-
partment. Bridges moved that the
vote ordering the bill paid be recon-
sidered. 1t was lost by the following
vote: Ayes, Glasford, Bridges. Bach
told; nays, Mexican, Cox and Martin.
