Rut if is a little far-fetched to refer
to General Wright as a democrat. He
bolted the democratic party IN 1880
and as far as the record shows, has
never returned to the fold.
It is true that he came near coming
back to the democracy when ne re-
turned from Japan and was considering
the advisability of announcing MS
candidacy for the governorship of Ten
nessee. but this plan was dropped When
the general was told that his 1eiloW
Tennesseans did not look with favor
upon a man who had been rewarded
fer his desertion of the democratic
party by appointment to fat federal
job.
General Wright's personal friends do
rot deny that his appointment to the
Philippine commission came as reward
for lis opposition to Bryan in 1896, and
that his elevation to the governorshlp
of the Islands was for the same reason
When. because General Wright could
not see the fine distinction between the
Filipinos and the negros and objected
TO the F'ilipinos' assumption of social
equality. the leaders of the native ele-
ment in the Islands got General
Wright's scalp, he rendered his reslg-
nation as governor to accept the post
of ambassador to Japan. GenefaI
Wright did not like the Orient ana
when he came home his friends say
that he was rather tired of the repub-
lican PARTY, which had treated him
with such courtesy and he longed to
set back into the democratic fold. But
General Wright could not keep away
from the pie-counter and when he
fcInd that the democrats of MS native
s;stc would have nothing to do with
him he climbed back into the republi-
can land wagon.
And he was appointed secretary of
war.
If twelve years of faithful support
to the republican party and almost
ten years of meek acceptance of re-
wards from the hands Of the republic
cans do not indicate that a man is re-
publican, it indicates that he at least
ought to be.
General Wright may be depended
upon to support Candidate Taft-pro-
vided Mr.. Taft will promise to retain
the Tennessean in the war portfolio af-
ter election.

WHAT MEN DO YOU WANT?

Two weeks from tomorrow the city
election will be held. at which time a
mayor. four members of the city coun-
Gil. and a full set of city officers will be
chosen.
AS there are but seven members of
the city council the four members to be
chosen at this election WILL if they act
together. be able to control city legis-
lation Of every kind.
For this reason. it would appear that
the taxpayers and citizens generally
should take particular interest in the
men to be voted upon for cOuncilmen.
1t would appaar that men should be
chosen who would be not only capable,
but who would be absolutely free from
all influences tending to corruption.
1t is not necessary for a man to take
a spy glass to find candidates for the
city council, who. if elected. will not
consider that the best interests of the
city as a whole should be their chief
concern.
1t itsn't necessary to mention names
Every voter in the city who cares to
spend Is minutes in investigation
will learn which is the best man run
ming for the council in his ward. If he
pursues his Investigations a little fur
Their, the chances are that he will find
out that vigorous campaigns are being
carried on in certain sections for 1.-THE
other candidate"
There are forces at work which seek
to control the city council for selfish
purposes. What these purposes are it is
not necessary to discuss here.
The question now is: What are yor
going to do about it?

At the keyIor Grand.

Large crowds were in attendance
yesterday afternoon and evening at the
Keylor Grand, taking advantage Of
the change in program which is es-
pecially attractive this week. The life
motion picture which so wildly por-
trays Mrs. Guinness. the female Blue
beard, is causing much interest and
comment. This scene is among the
rarities Of the moving picture world
and its first appearance before the pub
lie of the United States is being made
at the Keylor Grand.
Calvin & LePage, the Spanish dan
GERS and inStrumentaliStS, pleased the
audience immensely and were forced
to respond to hearty encores. Their act
is we'll worth seeing. Harry Leighton,
in "mOnolOgues that's different" is all
his title implies. AS a mOnOlOgue COM
edian his work is distinctly different"
and original in every respect, provoking
from his hearers roar upon roar of
laughter. The Great ZeradO, in trapeze
performance, did some remarkably
clever work and won vigorous and we'll
deserved applause. Old Diavolo, the
Human Salamander. is everything the
name suggests. He seems to have an
utter disregard and contempt for flames
and heat, his act created much entnu-
siasm and applause Miss Adele Per-
ferle in trombone solos, showed an
unusual knowledge of this difficult in
strument. Miss Pefferle's work can be
classed with that of the most perfected
performers and her audience clearly
showed their appreciation Of her eff
forts. George Carr, as usual covered
himself with glory in illustrated songs.
Mr.. Carr is beinning his third week in
Walla Walla and ia is safe TO assume
that there was never a singer at tne
keylor Grand who was more popular.

A ROOSEVELT VICTORY.

The more the republican national
platform is studied, the more it becomes
doubtful whether the results Of the
Chicago convention can be looked upon
as a Roosevelt victory.
1t is true that President Roosevelt
was able to force the nomination of
Secretary Taft, but to do this, he ap-
parently sacrificed many principles
which his friends would like to have
seen in the platform.
Both President Roosevelt and Mr. Taft
had urged their party to enact legisla-
ton providing for publicity Of campaign
contributors, but the convention re-
fused to indorse their position by vote
Of $50 to "a.
President Roosevelt had advocated
the plan OF ascertaining the value Of
the railroads, as a basis for determin-
ing the fairness Of freight rates, but the
convention turned down his sugges-
ton by a vote Of 81 to GO.
President Roosevelt had advocated
increasing the powers of the interstate
commerce commission over freight
rates. but the convention recommended
legislation to increase the latitude of the
railroads.
President Roosevelt had advocated
an income and inheritance tax, but
the convention entirely ignored his re-
Communications.
President Roosevelt had advocated a
new law against blacklisting. but the
platform is silent on that subject.
President Roosevelt had advocated
laws to prevent srOsSer forms of gamb-
ling in securities and commodities, but
not one word in the platform is devote j
to that recommendation.
President Roosevelt had demanded Il
clear-cut and effective limitation of the
powers Of the courts to issue injunc-
tons, but the plank in the platform on
this subject is weak compromise.
The people have long demanded cleo
ton of United States senators by di-
rect vote, and the popularity of the
plan is demonstrated by the fact that
it has five times been indorsed by the
lower house of congress. yet the con-
vention voted down a declaration in ia =
vor of the reform by a vote of $50 to
ia.
The old-line politicians had strength
enough in the convention. by giving
| the crumbs to the reform element. TO
retain the loaf for themselves. No Won
der that Senator Lafollette says that
the platform is disappointing in some
fundamental provisions and omissions
1t must be disappointing to the hun
/ dreds of thousands or the rank and file
of the party who have labored faithful
ly to wrest the organization from the
control of the politicians representing
the selfish interests, and who had
hoped to see this convention take ad

forms needed and demanded by the

THE NEW WAR SECRETARY.

Many newspapers are commenting
upon the appointment by President
Roosevelt of an alleged democrat,
General Luke E. Wright, to be secre-
tary of war, succeeding Candidate Taft
Personally, General Wright is a fine
gentleman, and judging by his past
record there is nothing to indicate that
he will not make as good a secretary
or war as any of the recent occupants
of that Office
Anyhow, if President Roosevelt will
not insist that his new war secretary
dine with colored gentlemen. there is
no reason to suspect that General
Wright will not mako good in his new
job.
