THE SHAME OF THE COUNCIL!

Another shameful evasion of the de-
mands of the property owners and tax
PAYERS to have the stuffed payrolls of
the pipe line exhibited characterized
the meeting of the city council last
night. 1t proved conclusively to
those seeking light on the water sup
ply scandal that "Bill' Kirkman and
his associates are too strong for May
or Kelough and have succeeded in
pulling the executive off the scent.
Mayor Kellough was one of the first
to suspect the alleged crookedness In
the pipe line administration. At the be-
ginning of his investigation he found
expense bills which he ordered held
UP. Then he found the specifications
and orders of the council were being
violated through failure to file item
lied accounts before the fifth of each
month.
What he found later is known only
to the mayor and the men who have
Just succeeded in getting a firm grip
on the executives nose, thereby shut
ting off the smell of the malOdorOus
graft He surely found enough to
warrant continuing the investigation,
unless persuaded it would not do to
expose certain members of the water
committee.
The Statesman has reason to believe
that the slipshod, or crooked, methods
employed on the pipeline make it i'm
possible for the water committee to
contradict the accusations of extrav-
agance and waste-even worse-by
producing the itemized accounts.
Their refusal to do so substantiates
the charges that all is not as it should
be.
There are cOuncilmen who have rep
utations for business probity and COM
mercial. ability. These cannot afford
10 allow so rank a play TO pass With
out comment. They-and the mayor
owe it to themselves and to the
taxpayers to appear before the people
as protectors of the city's business
and not as slavish apologists for men
who have permitted the city to be rob-
bed, either with, or without, their
personal consent.
The people of Walla Walla insist
upon an exhibition of those secreted
payrolls and expense accounts!
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1906-09-12
TRULY A CANARD!

In the Evening Bunc' is a tale of
woe from certain of the new Boxer
bosses and would-be bosses denying
that R. L. Mccormick has sent money
into this county for the purpose Of
defeating Senator Ankeny
The Statesman would like to add
it's denial also. The money might
have gone to Frank KEGS, but never
to that Evening Bunc" crowd.
Cause why?
They have money of their own!
Here are the amounts subscribed
for the city campaign, which demon
strate the willingness of the little
bosses to stand all expenses: F. S.
Dement,, $40; Oscar Cain, $50; Otto
Rupp, IS; Eugene Lorton, 90; "Bill'
Kirkman, $50; C. c. Gose, $40.
After such magnificent display OF
generosity, particularly by the Even
ing Bunc'' and the "Bunc's" candidate
for prosecuting attorney, no one should
place credence in the story that Nc
Cormick is supplying the big money
being used to fight Walla Walla's sem
ator.

Harper'S Weekly.

During a newspaper mans conVen-

afternoon talking of the tricks of 1.-The

Watterson said:

funny typographical breaks in my time
about the oldest and most humorous
transposition of the types that ever
came within my observation was that

That sheet used to print it's shipping

Past the Limit.
Corvallis Gazette.

The meanest man on earth is declar-
ed to be a resident of Corvallis. If
there is anyone meaner in the deepest
and broadcast sense of the word, it is
up to him to step forward and claim
the distinction This man is the owner
of a team, and with this team he prac-
tically makes his living. The animals
are so lean and lank that they resemble
walking corncribs, so plainly can their
ribs be seen through the hide, which
is about all that is left Of the poor
beasts. And in spite of the value. Of
the service rendered by these dumb,
helpless creatures, the dirty, despic-
able puppy of an owner is accused of
putting rocks in the stalls of the horses
at night to prevent them from lying
down. This is done to save the work
of currying and the expense of straw
for bedding.

Lacks characteristics.

Independence Enterprise.
Brigham Young came down from his
fOOthill ranch Wednesday. NotWlth-
standing trouble he has had with
renters. he is not enthusiastic over
marrying and building up home OF
his own. Brigham is dead set against
re-opening negotiations with the girl
who threw him down because of the
story that he ate dog meat. The lady,
no truth in the story and is willing to
renew acquaintance with her friend
of former days, but Brigham shows lit
tie disposition toward reconciliation.

unlawfully and that laboring men have
been prevented from concerted action
in their controversies with their en-
ployers.
Because certain congressman have
proposed by the American Federation
of Labor depriving the courts of the
power of injunction, Mr.. Gompers has
undertaken to see that they are de-
feated at the polls. Littlefield of
Maine is one of the offenders, and
particularly bitter fight was MADE
against him under Mr.. Gompers' direc-
ton. Mr.. Gompers raised the issue
very sharply in this congressional cam
paign that failure to comply with la
boris demand in all respects shall be
sufficient cause for defeat Of any can
didate for congress. 1t comes nearer
bringing a class distinction into our
congressional contests than we have
ever seen before in the north, and the
outcome will be watched with a good
deal of interest
Littlefield received the support of
the president, Secretary Taft, Speaker
Cannon and other prominent republi-
cans because they believe that he is
an upright, honest, fearless man and is
deserving of support on that account.
For that reason, Secretary Taft went
into his district and made a speech in
which he analyses the demand for the
abolition of the power Of injunction.
That part of Mr.. Taft's speech has
been printed. Attention is called to it
again because we believe Mr.. Taft has
rendered a valuable service to both
sides of this controversy by showing
how important it is that the courts be
not deprived of this power. The COM
plant that it has been abused in a few
instances is not sufficient reason for
| the abolition of a power which is so
valuable safeguard Of the rights and
| interests not of any particular class or
any particular interest, but of all
classes and all interests when they are
| unlawfully threatened. A modification
of the law was suggested by the presi
dent which seems to meet every OBJ
lection of the labor organization. That
modification is to the effect that no in
junction shall be issued without notice
to the defendant or the party against
whom the injunction is directed.
The exercise of this power is con-
tended for not alone or chiefly because
| it affords the employer the protection
of the government against mob vio-
