Are Popular


:. - accorded the popu-
lar machine in San Francisco is the as
sertion of Harry II. White OF the Stude-
baker EMF So factory of Detroit,
Mich, who returned 10 San Francisco
yesterday from Los Angeles. He said:
putting aside all enthusiasm which
may have over the machine, as one
who is loyal to his firm I must say
that this car is bound TO play a prom
nent part in the automobile business
in California during the year 1903. The
Los Angeles representative OF the
Studebaker concern has found himself
in the same predicament that the san.
Francisco branch he's. namely. that he
can not meet the great demand for
early deliveries for the cars. So here.
premiums have been offered for early
deliveries.
While the Studebaker EMF go
has aroused much interest, the interest
in the StUdebaker higher priced cars
is growing rapidly in the southern part
Of the state. The company has been
exceedingly fortunate in placing in the
field number of their finest cars, and
these have proven a splendid advertise
ment for the Studebaker company. Sew
eral sales have been made during the
past month by the southern California
representative of limousines and seven

The Recall Law.

Residents of a ward in Hoquiam
were dissatisfied with the appoint
ment of a councilman from their
ward, made to fill a vacancy, and
petitioned to have him recalled and
an election held to determine who
should serve t:em according to the
law governing second class cities.
According TO Hoquiam paper, the
city council refused to obey the law
by calling the special election, and
the matter has been taken into teh
courts. and the council plans to ap-
propriate city money to fight the
case
If correctly reported, the position
of the HoQuiam council is unfortu-
nate. The recall provision is one
of the most important in that law,
giving as it does power to the peo-
pie to compel, if necessary, their
agent to obey their behests. 1t may
be we'll to test the validity Of the
law, but the action should come
from elsewhere. The city council
is legislative, not a judicial, body.
All laws enacted by the legislature
are good laws until pronounced 9TH
erwise by the courts and each men,
Der of the council is under oath to
support those laws. 1t is not their
province 10 declare law invalid.
or to pay public money to have its
validity tested, but, on the contrary
to obey them. With the merits of
the HoQuiam case the Herald knows
nothing-and cares less-but it does
appreciate the value of the recall
clause and knows the duties of a
city councilman, and believes they
should have obeyed the letter of the
law and called the election. If any
individual felt agrieved, the courts
were open to him at his, not the
city's, expense. AS the case stands
it puts the city fathers of Hoquiam
in the unenviable attitude of not
only disregarding the law, but of
spending city money in an effort to
have one of the most valuable pro-
visions of the city's charter declared
invalid.

ATTEMPTED HOLD-UP.

Edward Hendricks, driver of one
of Then Bros. milk wagons narrow
ly escaped being the victim of a
robber while driving up from Ho-
quiam Friday evening. He was pre-
ceded all the way from Hoquiam by
a man on a bicycle, who, when about
hal way to Aberdeen, dismounted and
attempted to climb into the wagon
Hendricks had become suspicious,
and had closed the sliding doors of
the wagon, and drew his pocket
knife. The would-be robber ordered
him to open the door, when Hend-
ricks pointed the knife at him, which
the thief mistook for a pistol in the
dusk. and quickly obeyed the order
to get off the wagon step. Hend-
ricks then whipped up his horse and
came to the city. He believes the
man watched him making collections
q. Hoquiam, and started out to re-
lieve him of the cash collected.

Civic Betterment.

With due regard to the very ex-
cellent intentions of the gentlemen
composing the Civic Betterment AS
ISOLATION. the Herald cannot but
agree with Mayor France, that the
object sought by them will not be
attained by shouting the "iniquity'
of Aberdeen from the housetops, but,
on the contrary, the shouting will
hinder and delay such attainment
by lettering the very class of people
most desired from locating in the
city.
But, is Aberdeen such wicked
city? Measured by seaports Of like
consequence in any part Of the world
it is a comparatively orderly city.
Within very few years Aberdeen
has been transformed from a rough

Trade With Mexico.

They can send us from Mexico a
steady supply of zine ores needed as
the basis of important manufacturing
industries. That we are enabled to
get them from a contiguous country
country is distinct advantage. But
the home producers of zinc ore are
protesting furiously against free zinc.
They propose to keep hired lobby in
Washington to fight for the imposi-
ton of tariff duty sufficient to keep
zinc dear in the home market-and
give them the opportunity of contin-
ued legitimated robbery.
Mexico is a fine next-door market
for a great variety of wares of which
we have a surplus. The Mexicans
want our goods; we want their ores.
The exchange would be mutually adj
vantageous and profitable. What is
true Of zinc ores in Mexico is true of
iron ores in Cuba. There is a most
odious monopoly of iron ore lands in
the United States, made more odious
and more effective for harm y a tar
III duty on imported ore. Why should
our barter with our Immediate neigh
bors anxious to trade with us be
baked by housing self-seekers who
keep their lobbyists at the door OF
congress asking that their employers
may be armed with predatory license
to stop the interchange Of commodi-
ties at the seaside or on the frontier?
