SHELTON PROTESTS
AGAINST TEARING UP
TRACES OF RAILROADS.

OLYMPIA, Aug. 4.-Complaint was
made to the state railroad commission
today that the tearing up of the rails
of the Port Blakeley logging road in
Mason county will put Shelton off the
map for railroad. transportation. The
logging road connects Northern Pa
cific branch with the peninsula road
running into Shelton, and in the past
the connection has permitted freight
to be delivered to Shelton by rail. Now
that logging operations are over In
that part of the state. the timber haV-
ing been all cut, the logging road IS
being torn up. 1t is likely the Shelton
people will appeal to the courts to Sc
cure quicker action than is possible
through the commission.

in the history of the temperance cause
that will make it notable, the Catholic

Opponents of the demon rum" from

prohibitionists and many who are not.

THE TWO ALPHONSOS.

Portraits of King Alphonso and his
young son are figuring just at present
in the news columns of American pa
pers in connection with the tribula-
tons of the Spanish monarch. There
is a keen American sympathy for the
head of the Spanish state, who came
10 his responsibilities at time when
Spain had passed through a severe
trial in, consequence of the necessity
for American intervention in her colo
NAL affairs. The utmost cordially
has been felt in America for Alphon-
so and every effort has been made to
give expression to that sentiment.
When he acceded to the throne there
was universal hope that he would
develop substantial qualities and give
Spain an administration of progress
sive breadth. When he was married

THAW ON BRAINSTORMS.

Harry Thaw recently in the court OF
his cross discrimination at White Plains
nv William Travers Jerome. said that
he killed Stanford White while he was
suffering from a "brainstorm," but that
if freed he thought he Will never nave
another. 1t will be interesting to as
certain this precious young mans pre-
scription for avoiding brainstorms.
Somehow or other the public gained
the impression at the time of his hrst
trial that a brainstorm was something
swift, severe and unavoidable Indeed
the sole virtue of the broinstorm as
defense from conviction of murder is
its quality as a visitation beyond the
volition of the sufferer. If Thaw has
his brainstorms under control he Will
not be necessarily a dangerous MEM

leases him on this basis will be as
suming grave responsibility in case
he is mistaken as to his power oI
Nevertheless, ThaW $

given when he was declared unaccoun-
table for the killing of his victim.

REGARDING THAT CONTEST

When the evening Bulletin gets
through with its 'cOpyrighted' con-
test, and has dropped all the names
but a few fooled and deluded workers
90. at the suggestion of the States
man, it is safe to say there will be just
about enough left that those prizes
the day of distribution comes. There
may be fewer than that number, but
with judicious padding and usage of
the names of those employed by that
paper there should be enough left to
stand for the notoriety. so that the
prizes will not have to go to single
entry Indeed. in a4 investigation to-
day, there were three found who are
willing to go ahead in the copy
righted" contest.
1t is a sad fact, and one which the
Statesman regrets, that it has to look
after the interests of the public through
the columns of the Bulletin; but I'M
til that list has been cleaned out and
expurgated, it is safe to say that the
Statesman will be found somewhere on
the trail and that trail is rank enough
that it does not take a keen nose to
scent the odor The Bulletin can find
what clean" means by looking at the
n int;A mi 10
taken out of its word book. Maybe it
is in the three-year- old directory.
A cursory glance over the list of
hard working contestants will show
a number who are spending their va
cations at the beach or the exposition
in Seattle. Many will be found who
have been married, others have NOV
ed away. But they are all working
hard-and getting their votes increas-
ed at the rate of several hundred a
day
For real farce. savoring of the an
tiquated methods of a street fakir of
ten centuries ago, this copyrighted
contest has 'em all skinned. Names
of Whitman college students who have
not been in school for two years, names
OF persons who have passed away.
names of people married and names
of people who want those names kept
out-all are included in this indiscrim-
mate muddle with no regard to feel
ings or decency.
The copyrighted contest, however,
is a bowling success. Yesterday a
subscription was turned in, which &C
counts for the fact that the office force
was seen to file into an ice cream par
Tor late in the day. And it is reported
that three of the hard working con-
testants" nearly secured another sub
scription this morning. That has moth
ing to do with the attempted holdur
on the Milton road, however. So there
is rejoicing in the Bulletins camp, fol-
the subscription list is growing as
never before.

warmly congratulated upon an aiii-
ance which could not fail to be OF ad-
vantage in all respects. Upon the
birth of his eldest child, now at the
mature age of twenty-six and half
months. the best wishes of the Ameri-
can Deople were expressed for the
prosperity of both father and son. NOW
Alfonso is in trouble. Circumstances
which have been really beyond his
control have precipitated him into
war in Morocco against serious odds OF
numbers and climate. At the same
time his own people have revolted, ana
now he has before him one OF the
most difficult bits of work that ever
confronted q ruler of men. If he
weathers this storm he will have long
task of rehabilitation. Spain is not
in good health. There is too great
difference between the classes, TOO
much misery darkly contrasting with
the affluence of the privileged classes.
Spain is really a poor country, Win
ignorance densely prevalent among
great portion of the people. Alfonso's
task in time of peace is enormous, ana
even though he may emerge from TINS
crisis victorious it will be at heavy
cost with which he must reckon lat
err. The chubby faced child who In the
pictures now being printed sits upon
the kings knee may never reign IN

country can affect the situation it Will
be exerted undoubtedly to the end that
this boy may some day preside over

perity never known in the days OF MS
