TIE BELLS OF sLUMBERTowN

When | was just little lad
Grandmother always said
That tiny tots should be quite glad
To hurry off to bed,
For if they'd press the pillows down
And listen still and long
They'd hear the Bells of SIumbertown
Go:
Ding along! Ding-a-long!
Then off I'd run with nodding head
Up though the dark old house
And. creeping meth the snowy spread,
I'd lie still as a mouse,
And, sure enough, I'd seem to hear
The beating of a gong;
And then another, sweet and clear
Go:
Ding-a-long! Ding-a-long!
And as l listened to the chimes
| seemed to drift away
And roam in strange and misty climes
Where elf men were at play;
Where nuts and sweets came tumbling down
And all was play and song,
And soft the bells of Slumbertown
Rang:
Ding-a-long! Ding-a-long!
I've thought in many an after year
That [ could hear the chimes
Of Slumbertown ring sweet and clear,
Just as in olden times,
But when I'd list the second time
I knew that I was wrong.
No more I'll hear the dreamy chime
Go:
Dinga-longl Ding along

If men were as ready to commend what they
approve as to condemn what they disapprove the

proaches, nearer to us.

IL Is sufficient TO say that the
management OF this newspaper does
not stand for graft It's action In
tho cases OF Dean and Stratton suf-
ficiently indicates its position.
Why The Star Acted.
II was not necessary for The Star
TO expose It's own men. Both could
have been quietly turned loose and
the paper spared the scandal Some
publishers would probably have fol-
lowed the easy course In the matter.
HUT The Star stands as an enemy
OF graft in public office and in
business life. II could not be sin
eere IN its position. or It's utteranees.
II Il eondoned the offenses OF graft
os in It's own employ.
Having caught them. II proceeded
20 make an example OF them in n
way that will be long remembered.
The publicity their offenses re-
ceiyed was as bad as any punish
ment that could be inflicted.
Some Facts About Dean.
Tho man Dan Dean" as he has
been best known through his writ
ings. Is In reality Victor Smalley.
who was formerly connected with
the Washington Post and other
leading newspapers OF the east. lie
has been a writer OF short stories
OF considerable merit. and was gem
orally recognized as a human In
forest writer" OF great ability.
When Dean. or Smalley, arrived
In Seattle about a year ago The
Star secured his services as a spe-
oial writer. He did such excellent
work that Mr.. Strandborg. who was
then editor OF the paper. eventually
appointed him city editor, After he
became installed in this position. Il
is apparent that he began his graft
ing tactics. while at the same time
doing the best OF general newspaper
work.
Concealed His Tracks.
Revelations which have been
made TO The Star today indicate
that Dean began HIS crooked opera
tions some time back. but so skill
fully did he conceal his tracks that
up to a recent date nothing was
suspected
When within the last 10 days tam
gible charges against Dean began to
drift into the office steps were
taken TO apprehend him. IL guilty.
