A FEW moments later the music struck up for the

number of couples up to about fifty.

as any near relation of Laura Mason's would natu-

first time the real Eleanor Marshall. and wondered
what stress of circumstance had driven her to
her livelihood in New Yorks financial district. He
did not like to see her such friendly terms with
Francis Lessng, whom, since their college

Labor Day.

The toilers of Olympia made a very
creditable showing on parade last
Monday. all the principal industries
being represented by men and women
wearing badges in the floats. or the
ranks on foot The Electrical work
erS took the prize for the most COM
plete float representing their trade
in its various details. The BARRIERS
had an excellent exhibit on wheels,
in which the whole trade was repre-
Sented and u section in which one of
their number was undergoing a COM
Portable shave, despite the rocking
of the equipage, from the litter left
by pave-wOrkers Pity it was that
even completed Main street was not
cleaned for the passage of such a
representative procession as the la
borers of all trades. Had some sor-
did millionaire been the city's guest,
all rubbish would doubtless have been
removed and our new $500 street
sweeper would have been worked
over hours to make the paving spick-
and-span clean.
While all the exhibits were credit
able, special mention should be made
of the beautiful float of the Shirt
Waist and Laundry Workers, which
combined probably more elements of
the truly beautiful than any other
The badge worn by the brewery en-
ployes was likewise specially COM
mended. being a sprig of hops and a
spray of barley pinned to the coat
lapel.
Senator Cotterill delivered splen-
did address at the park in support of
the proposition that = All that labor
asks for is complete and absolute JUS
tice for every man," which senti-
ment met with great applause, and
we doubt not it found response in
every heart.
In the afternoon the several ath-
letic games arranged for amusement
of the colaborers and entertainment
of visitors took place and prizes were
awarded, ending what was. in all re-
spectS. a most successful and credit
able observation of a good cause and
a worthy class of our community.

Walter Barnard. representing the
Farmers Exchange OF Lacey, have
applied to the city Council for al
franchise TO operate Il telephone svs-
TEN IN this city, which has been re
ferred to the committee on Fran
chlSeS, Licenses and Sewers. 1t is,
to exist for % years and possess the
usual privileges of such a corpora
ton. 1t is said that the reason for
establishing second system is the
inability to make satisfactory terms
with the existing company for
SWl'chIng connections. If So, we
think the matter should be capable
OF adjustment upon fair and equit-
able basis. The trouble and expense
OF maintaining two lines is too great
"a burden upon the public if it can
possibly be avoided. Experience in
some of the larger cities has settled
that matter beyond dispute, and an
exchange is valuable to its patrons in
proportion to the number of sub
ScrlberS readily available on call.
1t is hoped that the Pacific company
may be able to give terms that will
add materially to its efficiency and
convenience of the public. The
Farmers will likewise be benefited,
at lower cost, and possess more
extended service.
ChaS. H. Morse, Sr., died at his
home at Fern Hill, last Saturday
evening. For. sevcral months prior to
his decease, he had been afflicted with
weak action of the heart accompanied
by dropsy. Deceased, was fifty-Six
years Old when he passed away; had
large circle of friends in Pierce and
Thurston counties. When the Black
Lumber Co., passed in to the hands
of a receiver, Mr.. Morse was en-
ployed rs okkeeper to straighten
matters out, which duties he
performed with efficiency for
about eight months, when his health
began to fail, compelling him to give
up his his employment. He had
always been considered a very COM
petent and useful man in his line of
work, was generous and obliging to
a fault, endearing himself to all with
whom he came in contact, and in all
of his social relations he made
friends instinctively, who will greatly
miss his genial companionship. He
leaves a widow and two sons nearly
grown up to mourn the loss of good
husband and kind father. The for
mcr is a sister of Mrs. Byron Millctt
of this city, who was with the bercavcd
familyat the time the deceased passed
away. The funeral was held at Ia
coma, on last Wednesday at 80 p. NJ.

Another Dialogue.

The other day, two men who we're
neighbors, happened to meet. This
was not an unusual circumstance,
but the reader may learn more from
what follows. The first spokesman
observed to his neighbor: You,
being Socialist, | shouldn't think
you ought to complain about divid-
ing some of your property towards
making the Swantown fill, for you
Socialists believe in the dividing-up
process.
The Socialist answered that he be-
lieved in stopping the dividing; that
it seemed the city government is not
willing to divide up, but believes in
taking everything in sight, even if
it has to be done in the name of an
assessment for street improvements,
which the property does not receive
but remainsin its native state.
Party No. l went on to talk about
the great benefits which would be
derived from this fill, when No. 2
said, you are merely guessing. and
making bad guess at that; your
opinion in this respect may be as
poor as the first one you advanced
about Socialism. 1t is in order for
you to proclaim your good citizen
ship and patriotism from the house
top, then levy tribute upon the al
ready over-burdened citizens and
home-owners on the Eastside. 1t
goes without saying. the patriot did
not take kindly to the expressions of
the other party.

L. ClaypO0l a Citizen -?

According to Republican prece-
dent, Il man may not be a voter
under statutory requirements, nor
even citizen of the United States, to
vote and hold office Very early in
our Territorial history, prominent
oflice-holder was not only an unnat-
uralized citizen of the United States,
(at least assuming all the rights and
duties of citizenship who was more
over deserter from the Z. S. army,
and when the matter became known,
it was pallilted and cOndOned by the
party in power; just as it is now by
the high court of impeachment in the
Schively case illustrations of this
ieniency upon the part of the leaders
are innumerable, and many are of re-
cent date, among which is the as
sumption and persistence of Charles
f. Claypool in forcing his nOmina-
ton in the Second Congressional dis
trict while not a citizen of this State,
having assumed and claimed the
privileges of citizenship in Alaska.
But this is not surprising. 1t is but
another attempt to ride over law by
creation and promotion Of vitiated
public sentiment. that will excuse
anything less than q felony done in
the name of party. Is it indeed sur
prising that leading Republican news
papers express doubt that Hamilton
will be brought to trial for stealing
500, 900 OF public money, with such a
record staring one in the face ?
The North PoLE.-It seems that
the polar explorers have been tumb-
ling over each other the past few
days in exploiting their claims of
success in reaching the Pole. 1t is
now Peary who has nailed his coun-
try's flag to the Earth axis, and says
he could find no trace of Cook al
legged deposit of a record of his pres
ence at point where latitude ends
and longitude begins. Peary claims
to have reached the Pole on the 9th
inst, while it is claimed that Cook S
discovery was made a year ago,
which accounts for the record having
been destroyed by shifting foes.
Cook rejoices at Peary's success and
sends him congratulatory dispatches,
while Peary discredits Cooks claim
So far the scientific societies, which
should be able to solve the matter OF
reliability to be placed upon reports,
are divided in opinion as to the
amount of credit that may be
placed upon the data available. 1t
must not be thought that the So
called pole is a definable axis, which
may be seen or felt, but a boundless
area of snow and ice, impossible tC

specific bounds. At least we must
patiently wait till some definite de.

Every time she has appeared in that
unpleasant role, she has been greeted

Saturday evening a train-wreck
happened at the eastern end of the
Seventh street tunnel, which re-
suited Monday in the death of JOS
eph w. Warren, of Tacoma, the
engineer, who had both legs crushed
by the collision. Fireman Charles
Schumacher was likewise injured, but
not seriously. Culver Fauver, a ten
year-old boy, was an outside victim,
being tossed into the air by standing
too near the wreck, who also escaped
without much or lasting injury. 1t
seems that the collision was between
a passing freight train and the log
ging engine that had just come on tC
the main track from the spur on JEFF
ferson street, pushing tiatcar load
ed with lumber The only fatality
was the engineer, as stated. His
wife came over from Tacoma by auto
mobile, and was with him in his last
hours.
