IF it's the intention of the members to go to the leg
isature which has been called in extra session. for the
purpose of evening up old political instead of
settling the question or the other for which it
was assembled then they will do more to drive the Re
nbcan party out of power in this state than have the
alleged grating state officials and heads of state inst
tutions The old organization should be permitted to
stand and the members go to work just like they meant
to do the square thing by the tax payers While this
state is overwhelmingly Republican in sentiment yet it
is not so Overwhelmingly that the voters cannot turn
it over to the Democratic party just did the voters in
Pennsylvania years age when the Republican party be-
came so corrupt Though the state officials elected
by something like 300 900 plurality, yet they were turn
ed out and Democrats elected by 00 900 plurality
The laws passed by the last general assembly which
have lust become operative should be let alone If the
"wets'' or drys in the legislature begin to monkey
with the local option law instead Of looking into the al
legged grating methods that have been operated in this
state then such members should be severely rebuked
is at stake at this writing and power the legis
ature can give it clear tite and this thing the legis
lature should do and that too without qubblng
the point as to whether it will politically help the
''wets'' or the drys 1t has already been predicted
that the coming extra session of the legislature will be
the dirtest political before handed out to the
tax payers but is to be hoped that this prediction
will not prove true but that the members will work in
perfect harmony in ferretng out any wrong doing that
any one may have committed to the detrment of the
state or the tax payers

Nursing public teat IS becoming so common to the
average young that it is something of a second
nature to him. He is first boosted in some petty posi-
tion by either his friends his relatives and he gets
taste of it, then he with the aid of his relatives begins
systematic planning to keep in office forever and one
day after if possible and it to be possible he
at least stays in office till he goes to prison. He drop
ped out of office make way for another gang but
he has regular chain and he bobs up in another Office
few days thereafter, and thus continues to
public teat These chronic office seekers grow gray in
the public service and know more than if they had
never been in public life. Once he becomes fixture
in the public service duty to be virtue to him,
but to do just little possible and yet hold the place
is his only object in office After long service for many
months or years serving thu public he learns how to lop
off few dimes here and there and sooner later he
develops into professional grafer and he may
for many years without detection unless he gets to v
ing too fast and wants the money in lump ots in which
case he ends his brilliant with dull sickenng
thud and the pententary is the end of his The
young man who starts out to live at the publics
pense is treading dangerous road and the sooner he
right about faces the better for him.

Just how Senator Piles muster up the nerve to
oppose John Wooding is than any man, who has
given local politics any consideration for the past ten or
fifteen years. explain for it has been John Woodng
and his friends from the south district that have always
stood by Sam Piles when he needed assistance 1t will
be remembered that for years Woodng and his friends
made it possible for Piles to draw $3.50 per month from
King county special counselor and advisor for the
board of county commissioners it was John Wooding
and his friends that always rallied to Piles beck and
calls in the hundred and county conventions that
have been held in King county, which gave him the
prominence that he has in the public eye it was
Woodng and his friends that furnished the votes in the
legislature that made it possible for Piles to get within
ten miles of election Had Woodng and his friends in
tmated that Wilson would have been just acceptable
to them as Piles then the Piles senatorial campaign
would have been huge joke In the face of all these
facts however Senator Piles turns deaf to Wood
ing and his friends when they ask for just crumb that
falls from his senatorial table and Democrat is
preferable than these loyal friends.

Speaking about being at variance with the local Re-
publican organization reminds the writer that Senator
Piles has been requested to support the Hon. John
Woodng of Auburn for United States marshal to sue
ceed C. B. Hopkins, whose term expires within few
days. but their prayers he has turned deaf ear and
will recomend James c. Drake, Tacoma Democrat IN
stead of Wooding Evidently Mr. Piles figures it out
that he got the money end of his support from j. D.
Farrell life long Democrat, and he is morally obiga-
ted to recommend for federal positions such persons
whether Republican Democrat, that hs-Farrel rec
ommends to him. Senator Piles King county's Repub-
lican Central Committee unanimous in its endorse

next twentyfour years.. Senator Piles meant what
he said he is not entitled to any consideration for re-
election for the Lake Washington canal has not moved
up single peg since he has been in the senate In
fact King county has Jared no better under Senator
Piles than it did when Addison G. Foster was in the
senate Senator Piles has not only not succeeded IN
dong anything for King county, but he has managed to
oppose everything the local Republican organization
wanted and as result he will meet opposition next
year the Republican organization where he should
find unanimous support.

So sure are some of the members that the extra

predicting that it will last not less than ninety days,
and perhaps even longer That may sound good to the
man that desires to rule ruin but it does not sound
very good to the tax payers who already groanng
under the excessive load of taxation For fems
it is more expensive to own property in the state of
Washington than to rent it, and this is especially true
in Seattle and in to why it is the answer is
because the state county and city officials are all more
or less troubled with professional graftts, and steal
the blind from the state house to the county

The announcement that the legislature of the state
would be called in extra session had hardly been made
before fellows that you had not since the regular
session adjourned showed up the streets with sm-
ing faces and began to talk state politics. They evil
dently had not hit tap since the adjournment or if
they working they dropped like hot brick when
legislative job seemed to be in sight, all of which very
conclusivey proves that tits worth good deal more to
hold public position than private one and yet the
salary is larger which must that the graft is
greater.

for much less than that and have therefore changed
my mind and will build home" AS this
has spoken think hundreds and perhaps thousands
and is all due to the fact that taxes and assessments
in Seattle are so unreasonable high and that is due to

For nearly five years Samuel H. Piles of Seattle,

in that time he has set the world fire one but

HOW A GREAT RESORT ADVER-
TISES.
Atlantic City is without doubt the
greatest tourist resort in the world
Its natural attractions are not great
er than half dozen other places In
the country, and no one claims that it's
tremendous success, and ever increas-
ing popularity is due to anything else
than persistent and skillful advertis-
ing. The only industry of Atlantic
City is the hotel business and it doesn't
want any other. The place has sew
eral commercial organizations, Sim
liar to those in Honolulu. These have
joined in creating and supporting
Publicity Bureau" the work of which
is similar in scope to that Of the Ha-
wall Promotion Committee. 1t can adv
vertise Atlantic City in practically any
way within its means, except through
newspapers and periodicals. These
mediums are reserved by. the hotel
men as their own especial field, and
they exploit it in fullest degree 1t
is stated that the Atlantic City hotel
men spend not less than 100000 per
year in advertising along these lines,
and they have discovered that by this
means they can hold crowds during
the winter, as well as in the summer,
and they have now an all the year
round resort. In an article on Atlantic
City in the winter, the Travellers Rail-
way Guide, published in New York
City, says
"One reason for the continued sue
cess of Atlantic City is the enterprise
of its hotel men, who have dared to
build great and expensive hotels, and
who know how to advertise and do NOT
hesitate to do it without interruption.
| The same enterprise might have made
other seaside places of similar situa-
ton quite as famous, but it would be
impossible now to rival Atlantic City,
which is known and talked Of the
world over"

WORK OF SURVEYING THE MINNIE.

Major Francis R. Skunk Is Now Busy
Organizing His Force; What
His Plans Are.

st. Paul, July 2l.-Major Francis R
Skunk of the army corps of engineers
will begin work on the survey of the
Minnesota river as soon as he can
get his force organized. Official or
ders have been received from Washing
ton authorizing the survey, and the
actual work will be taken up in few
weeks.
The survey will be made from Man
kato to Big Stone Lake, the upper
part of Minnesota, with view of
locating sites for reservoirs, and max
ing the river navigable. 1t is esti-
mated that it will require four months
to finish the survey.
Strong arguments have been made
by farmers for navigable stream, and
for improvements to prevent the
river from overlooking and damaging
abutting meadows. The state drain
age commission made survey last win
ter, to see what could be done to check
overhows. No action will be taken by
the state until the federal government
has received Major Shunk's report.

Pieces

Sleepy Eye, July 2l.-After a hear
ing held here before District Judge Oh
sen, Theordore A, Lempe's application
for release from the county Jail on 81,
900 cash bail was granted, in spite o
a petition, signed by "a large number O
the principal citizens of Lake Benton
praying for an increase in the amount
of the bond, on the ground that Lamp,
was too dangerous character to be al
liberty.
Lampe, who is accused of attempt
ing to dynamite the garage of Hans
Lavesson, banker, was told that any
misconduct ON his part would result in
a revocation of the bond.
) The court held that the case was one
in which bail could not be denied, and
that under the circumstances raising
the amount of the bond would practi-
cally be denial, as it is said that the
defendants sister mortgaged all of her
property to raise the balance needed
to make up the $1,000.

Seattle, July 2l.-After the wedding
invitations had been issued and the
