TO DEMOCRATIC VOTERS
Democratic Congressional Committee Appeals
For Popular Subscriptions.

To ALI. DEMOCRATIC VOTERS:-If
there ever was time in the history of
the Democratic party for the mani
festation of loyalty and patriotism on
the part of it's members, it is right
now.
If we are to win victory and elect a
president two years hence, we must
first elect House Of representatives
this fall. A Democratic House can
and will investigate every department
of the Government. With all Of them
honeycombed by graft, the edges of
which, only, have been touched by re-
cent exposure and prosecutions, there
will be revelation of rottennes5 that
will astound the country, and create q
demand for a Democratic Administra.
ton to clean the Government work.
shop.
To win the House we need money to
defray legitimate expenses and get out
our vote. We have no protected mon
opolies from which to draw to fill our
Golfers, as they do those of the Repub-
lican party. We must, therefore, APP
peal to loyal Democrats for contribu.
tions.
Will you send us 81 at once, and In
return for this we will send you copies
of our campaign literature issued by
the Committee. You will have the
thanks of the entire Democratic party
for your favorable response to our re.
quest.

with all this in view there is no reason
why there should not be big profit in

DORMITORY NEEDED
To Demand an Appropriation for Building
A Dormitory Would be Right

The state university gets for main
tainance S73, 400 more than all three
normal schools, and besides, that very
very distinguished Seattle school gets
1925, 200 more than that.
AS representative OF the best inter-
ests of Kittitas county and the normal
located within her confines and in the
heat of Kittitas valley, The Dawn feels
that our people have perfect right
to demand an appropriation for DOR
matory of sufficient capacity to care for
all lady students at least, for years to
come.
OF course, the counties are fairly
we'll re presented at the university, and
we are proud Of it, but the schools that
train the teachers for the children Of
the whole state must not be neglected,
and appropriations for schools should
not be doled out by few petty poiiti-
clans.
Here are the figures appropriated
in 1905:
University maintenance, s273, 400
other purposes, 25,2OO
Ellensburg normal, $50,
Cheney normal, $65, 900
Bellingham normal, $4,000
Can anyone suggest even q plausible
reason why the legislature should not
appropriate a good sum for dormitory
at Ellensburg?
