OPEN TO CRITICISM.

Secretary of State Sam H. Nichols is
open to severe criticism for his action
with reference to the filing at his office
of declarations Of candidacy under the
new primary law, says the Spokesman
Review. 1t has been the practice for
county auditors to accept the filings
offered by other candidates before
placing their own on record. Mr..
Nichols accepted his own declaration
and that of his deputy, Insurance
Commissioner j. H. Schively, before
other candidates We're permitted to Of
fer theirs.
Mr.. Nichols course throughout has
been characterized by lack of frank
ness toward other candidates. Some
weeks ago Attorney General Atkinson
| suggested that candidates present or
the morning of July 10 when the sew
eral offices opened for business draw
lots for positions on the ballot. The
impression became general that this

The barometer has risen somewhat
in the north Pacific states, but a
trough of moderately low pressure still
remains over the northern Rocky
mountain region and the southern
plateau. Rain fell at most places in
Oregon, Washington, Idaho, western
Montana AMI northern portions of Ne
vada and Utah. The rain was light in
Washington, but fell more heavily i'll
neighboring states. An area of high
pressure over the central portion of
country is attended by generally fair
weather. A depression on the New
England coast has caused rain in the
Lake region and north atlantic
states. 1t Is generally cooler over the
United States this morning. except in
Montana and the British possessions
to the north. The conditions indicate
unsettled weather in this locality with
showers tonight or Wednesday, and

ficiaries and dependents Of predatory
politics and of unchecked treasury
profligacy are going to resound with
the alleged "radicalism' of Mr.. Bryan
and the existing democratic organiza-
ton and are going to attempt to ar
ray the business interests OF the
country against that ticket.
There is no possible reason why
those who prefer the republican ticket
should not vote that ticket, and the
same applies to the democratic ticket
or any other ticket. But people should
not be led to vote such ticket through
deceit and prejudice and thereby be
unconsciously committed to the very
things they most want to get away
from. These predatory organs accuse
the democracy of radicalism, but they
are the same organs that shout with
glee when Mr.. Roosevelt issued his
various proclamations concerning the
criminal bankers" the wealthy mall
efactors,' the "vulpine financiers," the
powerful wrongdoers," the corrupt
wealthy" as applied to American COM
merce, finance, industry and transpor-
tation
We have recently been warned
against democratic attacks on the
courts. In his message to congress.
January 81, 1908, President Roosevelt
said, referring to the courts in their is
suance of injunctions in labor cases:
IF some way of remedying the abus-
es is not found the feeling of indigna
ton against them among large num-
bers of our citizens will tend to grow
so extreme as to produce a revolt
against the whole use of the process of
Injunction"
If a judge is assailed for standing
against popular folly, and above all, for
standing against mob violence, all
honorable men should rally instantly
to his support. Nevertheless. if he
clearly fails to do his duty by the pub
lie in dealing with lawbreaking cor
rorations, lawbreaking men of wealth,
ne must expect to feel the weight of
public opinion; and this is but right,
for except in extreme cases this Is the
only way in which he can be reached
at all.
But if it were true that to cut rot
tenness from the body polite meant a
momentary check to an unhealthy
seeming prosperity. I should nor for
one moment hesitate to put the knife
to the corruption
When therefore the advocates of
more government and more spoils and
or less liberty and less opportunity
pretend that they must be kept in
power lest business be injured by
radical democracy, one need onlv point
10 the record in refutation thereof.

| Miss Elita Proctor Otis will have
'Mary's Lamb" when the new Richard
Carries musical comedy comes here
this fall. She has replaced Miss Ida
Mcmillan, who went to London for the
English production Of George AIDES
college Widow.
Some years ago Miss Otis was the
owner and editor of the Saturday Re-
view. literary and social weekly, in
New York One day in 1892 she went
to interview John B. Stetson, who
was so struck with her beauty and
ability that he offered her a part in
THE Crust of Society,"" which he was
caused so much gossip. She was given
the part of Mrs. Ernestine Echo when
1.-The Crust of Society was produced
at the Globe theater in Boston, and
played that part for eight weeks. She
proved such an artist that Mr.. Stetson
at once starred her in the leading part
in the play, Mrs. Eastlake Chapel. Her
tour lasted for two seasons.
Miss Otis then starred as Nancy
own management. After that she ap-
peared in Thomas New Blood" and
in 1.-The City of Pleasure" at the En-
pire theater in New York. She
played long engagements as the ad-
ventures in Sporting Life and 'The
Sporting Duchess" and she also has
appeared in Carmen" la Belle
Russo" 'Hedda Gabler," EAST Lynne"
and a number of other dramas. She
proved her versatility by appearing as
a stock company star, and last sea-
son she was for awhile in Lew Filds
company at the Herald Square thea
ter in New York But one of the most
notable achievements Of her career
was her La Forchard in the All-Star
cast of "Two Orphans" four years
ago.
The part of Mary Miranda Lamb, the
termagant in 'Mary's Lamb is well
chosen for Miss Otis. She plays the
strong minded Miranda, with splendid
assumption of dignity, severity of as
pect and commanding power.

THE SUMNER SEASON.

The annual summer revolution Goa
son has opened in Central America. II
began little early this year with q
Sue snow In Haiti but the big show
is now on in the main tent and the
cafes from one end of Guatemala to
the other end of Nicaragua are charg-
ed with rumors, food being distaste-
full during the tropicsi summer months
revolutions are the Coney Island of
Central America. Every year when
Luna Park opens the patriotic gener-
ais go out and corrall a man or two
out of work, issue a manifesto from the
Junta. which occupies a corner in the
cheapest restaurant, and the season is
on. There are fewer fatalities than at
Coney and it's very fascinating.
An army of fourteen generals and
three privates will decend upon a hap
less town, too poor to care whether it
is captured or not, and the uprising
is started. President Davilla, of Hon
duras, tells his minister in Washing
ton to inform the state department that
an attempt is being made by Cabrera of
Guatemala and by San Salvador to
overthrow his government. Guatemala,
where the president is busy falling ev-
erybody to keep from getting stabbed
or blown up, says it's Zelaya of Near
aqua that is doing it. The only country
not involved so far this season is Costa
Rica where the Central American Peace
court was inaugurated few weeks ago,
The ceremonies of this occasion have
delayed the Costa RIGA season.
There are three fine side shows this
season to make up for any lack of
excitement in the main event This is
Mexico's revolution, the great Panama
spectacle where the United States ma
rines are keeping order and preventing
roWdyism, and the Haytian conf1agra-
ton. Venezuela, further south, will not
figure on this summers bills because of
sickness.
When, through Secretary Roots eff
forts, the representatives of the Cen
trail American government met in
Washington and rumpled one another's
frock coats in the general congratula-
tons over the establishment of the
Central American Peace court, it was
thought that the usual summer revolu-
ton season would not be pulled off.
The peace conference was very success
full but, as an American dliplomatist
observed, the only oversight was that
the professional revolutionists were not
included in the gathering
So the season is on. 1t will last until
the weather gets cooler late in Octo-
Der. In the meantime, though one or
two governments will probably be
shaken up a bit, no one will have the
temerity to deprive the people of theii
amusements.

THE ELECTION.

The Statesman is glad to see that
the right of a democrat to run for Of
flee has been indicated in Walla Wal
Ia.
And whenever, in the future, the
dyed in thewool republican begins
to tell you that a democrat has no
show here. you can point to that
threeto-one victory of Eugene Tausick
a democrat, on the eve of a national
campaign. That victory will be one
long to be remembered
The Statesman, however, is not
foolish enough to insist that Walla
Walla is such a democratic stronghold
as yesterdays vote for Mr. Tausick
might indicate to an outsider. To many
voters who cast their ballots for the
democratic candidate, the matter of a
business-lile administration carried
more weight than party fealty, and il
is suspected that a large number OF
these good citizens were men who or
dinarily vote the republican ticket.
Mr.. Tausick can well be proud of the
support he received yesterday. The
vote was a compliment such as no man
ever received in Walla Walla before
And 1T was deserved. 1t was the reward
of service. honest and faithful, to the
city. This vote demonstrated that
not irrespective. but in spite of party
the public servant who keeps the faith
can depend on the people of this com.
munty
This brings to mind the point which
1t would appear should be emphasized
in any discussion of the results o.
yesterdays election, and that is tn,
advantage to any party of nominating
honest and capable men for office
1t was demonstrated yesterday tina
tie man who can appeal to the best in
telligence of the community does no
necessarily have to wear the label .
the dominant party in order TO b
elected to Office
Some good men went down to defea
yesterday. The Statesman believe
that in certain instances the best avail
able man was not chosen, but it i
gratifying to note that even the de
feated candidates even those who fel
before the popularity and the NOR
vigorous campaigning of their oppo
nents, were in most instances beate
by exceptionally narrow margins. The
received a sufficient vote to show tina
the city was not unmindful of sAei
qualifications.
Yesterdays election marks the be
ginning of new era in the politics @
Walla Walla.

close enough to be injured. The explo-

shook the ground for some distance. Ma
ny window panes of the houses in Schleys-

was heard by people near Thurmont last
