A Little More About the IudgShp

Quite three pages Of ast weeks
Wenatchee Republic was devoted to
the candidacy OF Mr.. Reeves. The
entire editorial page vas given over 10
a defense Of his character and fitness for
Judge of the superior court of Chelan
county. In the judgeship campaign
The Republic has devoted more than
ten times as much space TO the candi-
dacy Of Nh. Reeves as this paper has
employed in telling its readers why it
deemed MI. GrimshaE the more s,
man for superior court Judge. Judged
by the space standard set by the We
natchee paper, The Echo has been
very modest advocate of the cause Of
its champion. II its modest efforts in
behalf Of Mr.. GrimshzE shall be meas
ured only by the amount Of space de-
voted 10 his cause it has not been Of
much benefit. If We have the situa-
ton sized up right, though, what little
The Echo has had to say counted for
more. 1t stripped the subject Of length
Of residence, sympathy, sentiment and
politics, and got right down TO the es-
sential question: Which Of the two
men, under the circumstances, is best
fitted to discharge the duties Of judge
OF the superior court Of Chelan county.
The Echo has maintained ,hz, Mr..
GrimshaE is best qualified for judicial
position and gave its reasons. It's
editor modestly believes those reasons
appeal to the voter. We gave Mr..
Reeves credit for being shrewd and
iorceful advocate and successful prac-
but at the same time main |
tanned that being a successful prac-
titioner and forceful advocate was by I
no means conclusive evidence Of fit
ness for position on the bench. This /
contention is borne out BY history,
almost without exception. The sue

Has Blundered on Late Water Bond
Election" the Wenatchee Republic
uncoiled its tail las, week and then
stepped on it. Listen how it purposes
TO make Mr.. GrimshaE responsible tor
the delay in getting the water works
for the town. The city engineer, NJ.
ZahIen, with the help Of an expert con-
sulting engineer OF vast experience,
Mr.. Hanford, estimated that water
works suitable 10 Wena,chee's needs
would cost s55,OO0. According to
The Republics story the greatest sum
for which the city could issue bonds IS
s29,o96.45. Again taking The Repub-
lies story as the foundation on which
to build a fact, Nh. Grimshax con-
strued the law 10 permit the issue Of
SIS 900 worth of bonds, construction
which j, is possible may yet be upheld.
But suppose it IS not, inquiring minds
will want to know hos that delayed the
building Of the water works. II IS up
to The Republic 10 show how the city
could build a SIS, 900 water works
plant when it could only borrow S29,-
9o6.4S. With kind OF now-you-see-i;-
and noE-you-don't-see-it-for-
Grimshag logic il was quite easy for
The Republic TO reach its conclusion,
but unprejudiced voters will be slow TO
follow the lead.

A Correction Cheerful, Made

Councilman Woldenberg says The
Echo did him an injustice last week in
the repo-; Of the council proceedings,
in which it was stated that he said he
favored violation OF the Sunday clos
ing laE because It vas unpopular and
the way TO make il more unpopular
and secure its repeal was 10 refuse to
enforce II. He says he did say that
Mr.. Rumohr would advocate an en-
forcement Of the law as the best way
Of securing its repeal, bui that he be-
heyed that the non-eniorcement Of il
would make the law ridiculous and in
tia. way lead 10 It's repeal sooner.
This paper has no desire 10 do any one
an injustice, but the writer was IN
ayoidably absent from the meeting and
was told that ne said substantially what
vas contained in the proceedings Of
the council as printed in last weeks
paper. Still. Mr.. Woldenberg must
admit tha; what he did say amounts to
practically the same thing. He op-
posed the council taking any action
in looking TO the enforcement, o. the

To The Leayenworth Echo:

ence 10 the congressional candidacy Of
the Honorable NJ. E. Field.
As long as your paper mas the cour-
age 10 tell people the truth IN regard
10 the so-called Honorable I wish 10
state 4 few additional facts which
think the people ought TO know. Be
fore doing 50 I van, 10 state tia, an
a l2boring man. u years of age. and
although my only wealth IS the clothes
wear. and no such term as 'honora-
bic" IS affixed to my name. still I am
proud to say tina; I always pay my
debts.
As 10 NJ. E. Field, had the honor
Of working for him something Ike nine
teen months and although this Was
some time ago, have only received
something less than eight months pay.
More than this, in spite OF the fac, that
We were members Of the same Masonic
lodge, and tina, he owed me this
money. ne paid no attention TO an ap-
peal from me on my sick bed a, Yaki-
ma ioE funds with which 10 return home

If your paper viii take the trouble 10
you viii find that there are
many Others beside myself 10 whom
the honorable" owes money for labor
OF otherwise If you doubt this put an
in paper that will reach
the people OF this vicinity, offering TO
pay 50 cents on the dollar for all claims
against the honorable and then see
where he stands among the people
who have worked for him or loaned
him money or sold him goods.
In all fairness I want to ask, is this
the kind of man that the people, es-
pecially the working class, Of this local
.iy wish to have represent them at
Washingington?
Yours very respectfully,
