The above palpable falsehoods
have been reiterated so often that

their gross falsity. The print

possible service to the public.
What good would the publishing
have done the city to simply
had it printed, if it would not
circulate among the people?
The editor of the above sheet
was asked at the time the bid
was let how many subscribers
he possessed in the city but re-
fused to answer. The price of
thirty cents a folio is certainly a
reas enable price, aud the city
ought to consider itself fortunate
in securing it's printing at such
a figure. The TRIBUNE never
used any undue influence upon
the council or any member of it
to have it's bid accepted, and if
any member of the council will
state that they were asked to
vote for it by anyone connected
with this paper, we will donate
to the city all the fees we have
received. We are rendering

The labor unions and laboring men generally
have always been much interested in the eight
hour law. About year ago an attempt was made
to strike down this law. One of the superior
court judges held the law unconstitutional. An
appeal taken to the supreme court Judge
Root wrote the opinion of that court reversing
the lower court and uphoIding the eight hour law
Judges Grow, Dunbar and Mount concurred in his
opinion. This was the case of Normile " Thomp-
son. 81 Wash, 465. few weeks ago another case
before the supreme court involving the eight
hour law with reference to contractors working
for counties The lower court held that the law
had been repealed, but Judge Grow, writing the
opinion of the supreme court reversed the lower
court and held the eight hour law to still be in
effect. Judge Root and three other judges con-
Cured in Judge Crows opinion Two of the
judges dissented. 1t will thus be that Judges
Root and Grow wrote the opinion in two cases up
holding the eight hour law, and that their votes
necessary for majority of the court
quired to the decision of the lower court in
each case.
Among the damage cases where the opinions
written by Judge Grow, favorable to the
plaintiff, the following:
Davis " Seattle, 79 Pac, 1884; also 81 Wash, 223.
Hart " Cascade Timber Co.. 80 Wash, 279 also
81 Pac. 38.
Fowler V. Harrison, SO Wash, GIT.
Cole v. Seattle Renton Ry. Co., IS Pac, 3.
Woods v Globe Navigation Co., 80 Pacr A.
Peterson " Seattle, 80 Wash. AL
Probably others not recalled.
One of the above cases cited (Woods v. Globe
Navigation Coz a in which Judge Root
attorney for the defendant before going
the bench, and, of course, took no part in the
supreme court. Judge Grow decided this
against the client of Judge Root.
Judge Rudkn did the same thing in the case of
Rector " Bryant Lumber & Shngle Mill Co., and
Judge Grow concurred in the opinion, the deci-
sion being against the client of Judge Rudkin.
This is mentioned to show that the members OF
the court are controlled by what they believe
right in a case, even if their associate members
are involved. Certain cases that Judge Grow had
before going upon the bench and cases decided by
Judge Rudkin in the superior curt have been de-
cided by the supreme court contrary to the views
held by these judges in the lower court Judge
Root having written two or three of such cases

 The Maltby mansion contains some twenty rooms and has for years been considered one of the handsornest resi- dences in this city. It was built by the late Caleb s.

STOCK MARKET FEATURES
(Continued from Seventh Page,)

Garlic Boyd, of Harde, Bonner & Co.,: Generally speaking, we are inclined to look for better prices in the stock mar ket after the first week in April, and believe that if the coming crop news is good we shall see a broadening market and higher prices for the standard stocks
 Charles E. Ball. of Ball & Whicher: ''We are likely to have reactions, due to profit-taking and to adverse reports on the strike situation, but, on the whole, we continue 'bullish and advise pur- ehases on concessions"
 William J. Wollman, of J. s. Bache & Co.,, who returned last week from trip through Mexico, says things are boom ing in Mexico, also in Texas and Okla homa, and adds: II feel that if the coal strike was out of the way stocks would go much higher. This is justified by underlying conditions"
 Henry Clews says: "The immediate outlook of the market is encouraging. Liquidation by large spectators seems to be over for the time being; spring is at hand, with accompanying optimism. Therefore technical conditions are all right for rise. Good securities can be bought with reasonable confidence on all pronounced declines, but profits should be taken upon the good rallies. For the next few days the controlling influence is likely to be the coal strike. :"
 The figures, actual and estimated, of the earnings of United States Steel show the great prosperity of that im- mense corporation, and that the outlook is good for resumption of dividends on the common stock at no distant day.
 The New York, New Haven and Hart ford Railroad company, as is announced in our advertising columns, offers to exchange one share of its capital stock for each $20O, face value, of the fifty year per cent. debentures of the com pany, of the issue of July 1, 1904, and January 2, 1905 This offer will be open and the exchange may be made between -InJ IoA lxeu Is GInr puB lx7u GBN ther particulars see the advertisement in another column.

THE WHOLE OF LIFE.

"The man who sees the whole of life must be an optimist,"
 Phillips Brooks, the large-hearted helper of his fellowmen, said many things which in few words embodied vast truths in so concrete a form that they seemed like new discoveries and took root like fertile gefms that throve in the minds of his hearers. This un- quilified statement, which I have quoted above, is like challenge; if you are pessmistic, 1t is because you only see in part
 We are all familiar with the idea that "by and large"-take all things togetker-there is abundant cause for good cheer in the world, despite pow erty and pain, but it would be diff ficult task to find in any other brief sentence of 12 words such large dec- laration that the more you see of life, the more you will look Wor and work for good. It is mine of cheerful philosophy.
 Just now, when privately and pub licly there seem to be so many strange happenings and the stable things of social and domestic life are like a series of impossible wonders reveal ing themselves to us, our faith in our fellownen is shaken, and the mind that chance to feel it's own share of insecurity in it's surroundings, dreads the morning news, and fears when in familiar chat some one says: Have you heard?" Has the history of the world come to an epoch when there is no one safe from terrible scrutiny and dreadful accusation? Are there none left whom we may trust? Are there no homes so bulwarked by love and fidelity that they are proof against destruction; no public insti- tutions that are beyond the reach of dishonor; no men left among us that do not require a verdict of Not guilty plaoarded on their breasts before you dare believe them trustyworthy.
 It is good to hear a clear, firm voice saying that he who sees must of life and Knows the most about his fellow creatures is sure to take the most hopeful views of them as of the lives they lead. It is an encouragement not only to confidence and kind judgement, but spur to endeavor to follow a vigorous manly argument from one whose walk have led him among those who have stumbled and fallen, to the end that he who sees the whole of life cannot fail to be of good courage
 Half knowledge is an nsidious evil and for the greater part, it is the kind of comprehension we have not only of others but ourselves. We feel a pain and smart under a disappoint- ment, and self-absorbed fail to- look out and beyond and see the compensat- ing result that, unwittingly to us, is being wrought out in the apparently disconnected events of other lives.
