Strong pressure has been brought to
bear upon Joseph Lindsey assistant
United States district attorney for
eastern Washington to get him into the
congressional fight. Lindsey is popu-
lar in Spokane county, served two
terms in the state legislature and gain
ed prominence there; has a good per-
sonal following throughout the east
side district and is young enough to
stay in congress for a long period of
years. In fact a fight was made
against his appointment as district at
torney on the ground he was TOD
young.
There is little question but that if
Lindsey had gone back to the last
house. he would have been elected
speaker. In fact had Lindsey been re-
turned. it is doubtful whether Falconer
would have ever entered the fight.
Lindsey is regarded as the most avail
able man in Spokane county and If
he could be drawn into the congress
sional fight it is figured he would be
pretty apt to succeed Jones in the low
er house.
w. H. Ludden is said to want the
Job. Ludden was for years one of the
leaders of the Wilson brigade in Spo-
kane county and he figured as one OF

SEATTLE FIGURES ELECTION DOPE
FOR EAST SIDE WITH ROCKWELL UP
Fat Years

SEATTLE, July 16.-An effort is be-
ing made 10 tie the congressional
boomlet of TheOdOsius D. Rockwell 10
the senatorial candidacy of W. L. Jones
and allow the popularity of the Yaki-
ma congressman to carry the chairman
of the state tax commission into the
national house of representatives.
Rockwell has been covetous of the
seat Jones occupies for several years,
but it was only in the division of the
state into congressional districts that
his ambition was given chance for
free play. Whether Jones got out of
the congressional fight or not, Theodo-
sius D. Rockwell figured that ultimate
the lower house and that his ambition
would be endorsed at home.
The Mead board of strategy is not
certain that Rockwell should be left
alone with congressional boOmlet. If
such thing is possible they want
Jones around to keep the peace, and to
give prestige to the Rockwell candi-
dacy. There is no reason for the belief
mat the idea appeals to Jones in any
way, but if Rockwell can run fast
enough to keep up, he will try TO be
travelling with the Jones movement
on the east side.

My Dear Boys and Girls:
In an old st. Nicholas I read a very
interesting account of a trlp. to the mooa,
which | know you will all be glad 70

with the speed of an express train: or Y
you Travelled with the swiftness OF a Dali

long as a trip across the Atlantic m a
fast steamer. Under average atmospheric
conditions a large telescope gives US a

easy one to solve. There is practically
no air on the moon, and you must take
along a supply for breathing. If you ex-
pect to make a fire and cook your dinner
you must take in addition to fuel an
additional supply of air to keep your
fire going.
But suppose that In some way you are

of the sunlight and the intense blackness
of the shadows. Everything In the shade
will be in almost total darkness, as there
is no air filled with little dust particles TO
scatter the sunlight so that 1t may IL
Illuminate the places out of the direct path

And what a sense of desolation will
present itself to your view! The Desert
of Sahara would look like a luxuriant
park In comparison with the lunar land

brook or ~lake-nothing but a vast, stony,
silent desert. There are plains, not quite
as level as our Western prairies. and great
numbers of mountains most of them much
sleeper than those on the earth; they are
not grouped in long ranges, as our ter
restrial mountains generally are. but are
scattered all over the surface, singly and
in irregular groups. Most OF them are
shaped more or less like our terrestrial
canoes ages ago, before the moon cooled
off.
IF you happen to land on a part of the
moon where Il is early morning you Will
nave plenty of time for exploration before
night comes on. The sun rises and sets
as 1t does on the earth, but the time be-
tween sunrise and sunset Is nearly fifteen
of our days. Then during the long lunar
night our earth will act like the moon,
and will light up that part of the moons
surface which Is turned toward it. Only
there will be this curious d~ifference-it
will not rise and set, but will remain near
ly stationary In the same region of the
sky. From the side of the moon which
is always turned away from us the earth,

G~reat-uncle James, who likes quiet, and
what he said was: :.
'Hoity-toityl Mercy upon us! G~racious!'
This. you know, is the most powerful
of anti-goblln spells. No goblin can. resist
it entirely. but 1t is especially powerful
among the house COLLINS. 1t settles them
completely.
And the very minute that this had been
said by Great-uncde James every single
tempestuous tartar stopped interfering
and became perfectly quiet. And the very
instant that they stopped interfering
everything began to go right. Teddy came
back to his mamma and discovered his
lovely lamb on the way. Mamma again
tried on the necktie and this time it made
up into q beautiful bow. Mary picked up
her spelling book. looking very much
ashamed. and as she arranged the torn
leaves as well as she could the lost lesson
stared her In the face. The nurse went
at the cowlick again and came off in
triumph. John washed off the %cocoanut
and brought ii back to the cook, and the
cook took off her bonnet again and said
that after all they weren't a bit worse
than other children.
So this will be a lesson to you that In
case the house COLLINS should ever try in
terfering at our house, and especially II
the tempestuous tartars should interfere
with the persons who are getting ready
for school, the thing for you to do Will be
to say:
"Hoity-toityi Mercy upon us. Gracioas!'

monium. Here was Teddy wailing for his
woody lamb and pulling away from his
mamma trying to tie Teddy's necktie
while 1t refused to go even. Here was
Mary trying to find the place In her spell
ing book and weeping very much while
nurse was trying in vain to brush the
cowlick out of her hair. Here was Luella
searching all over the house for her other
and overturning and upsetting every
thing and getting her hands and dress
soiled with crawling on the floor and under
the bed. Here was John covered with
jam and soup and broken plates, which
was very notifying for such a big boy,
who was almost ready to go to the gram
mar grade. Lastly here was cook throw
ing up her hands in CONSERVATION at
Johns plight and trying to mop up the
floor and pick up the pieces OF dish and
wipe off John and find the cocoanut, all at
the same time.
You may guess the goblins were glad.
They were perfectly delighted. Oh, how
they danced They said it was the very

the fussing COLLINS ought TO have been
satisfied.
Then the mussing COLLINS took another
turn. and h they did was to put 1t into
Johns head that since the cook wouldn't
get him any luncheon for his school luncn
box he ought to get his own, and so John
went into the pantry without saying any
thing to anybody, and he saw on the top
most shelf something that he thought
would be very nice for his school lunch
box. 1t was a very nice jar of cocoanut,
all cut up to make dessert of. But the
shelf was a little too high, and so John
had to climb up on the lower shelf and
reach as far as he could. There was a
neat paper cover on the shelf and, of
course, what does the mussing goblin do
but give this cover a jerk, and 10 and be-

so what do they do but disappear with the
woolly lamb that Teddy always took to
the kindergarten, and Teddy insisted he
must hunt for Lambie right away, even
IL mamma did want to tie his necktie.
So you may guess that there was pande

ire all from this moment tempestuous tar

are all from this moment tempestuous tar
tars.'
Loud shrieks of joy greeted this an
nouncement from the king. The tempes-
tuous tartars without accord determined
to testify their gratitude by doing their
worst. This is a great deal more than the
ordinary house goblin's worst.
And instantly all the things that had
been happening all the morning became a
thousand times worse than before.
Teddy jerked himself out of his mothers
hands and left her holding the objection
able necktie. Mamma ran for her little
spanking whip with which to punish
naughty Master Ted.
Mary tore the caves out of her spelling
book and threw the book on the floor in
a perfect passion. Nurse Eliza gave
Mary's hair a sharp jirk and then founced
out of the room, declaring that if she
wouldn't hold still she could go to school
with her hair every which way. Luella
tore off the shoe that hadn't been lost and
said she wasn't going to chooi anyway.
John took all the pieces of cocoanut that
the cook had picked up, stuffed them into
his pocket and danced away out Of her
road, leaving her perfectly helpless, with
out anything with which to make dessert.
And the cook instantly stopped picking
up pieces and said she wouldn't work an
other minute in such n house; no, she
wouldn't, and she began putting on her
bonnet at once.
And then suddenly there again appeared
