And the citizen of the rival town then
went on to prove to his own satisfac-
ton the superiority of Spokane to
most places on the civilized earth and
the general and nearly complete GUS
sedness and uselessness of Seattle. In
the midst of his grafton the old gentle
man with the long beard slowly look
ed up from his tea and toast, fixed the
Spokane man with a calm and pene-
trating eye and with an accent that
still Enthusiastically recalled his native
Virginia-although he had lived in
Yakima for twenty years-proceeded
to read him the riot act. 1t was an
adm oniton gravely and courteously
given, but with certain authoritative

old gentleman's remarks was that
western boomers couldn't expect to
have their own towns taken seriously

At every election time it deyolves
IN the newspapers to plead, threaten,
cajole, anything to get the voters to
register and do just little thinking
on the subject of good government. Is
the election this year going to become
another instance of supreme indiffer-
ence? The subject has been handled
in so many ways, has been argued, eX
planned, reasoned out in SO many diff
ferent word pictures that it seems As
if there is nothing new to be said, and
yet here we are at the critical moment
again, few people registering and al
most no one doing any thinking. While
the foolish bridesmaids slept the
bridegroom came and only those who
We're awake and waiting went into the
feast. If you have no interest in mu-
nicipal government do not blame any
one but yourself if our municipality
goes the way of the erring girl. There
will be no one to blame but the men
who either did not vote at all or who
voted without thinking. The candi-
dates are before you, choose wisely
and carefully and the outcome will be
satisfaction enough for the trouble it
causes.

Jefferson saw that the inspector was

how the colored man was disregard

him what had to be done.
Jefferson appeared shocked at the

SYMPATHY.

sued the meat trust and
we glory in his grit.
We hope he fries the suet and the
tallow every whit;
We hope that he will squeeze it hard
until it oozes fat,
And greasy magnates yell aloud and
wonder where they're at.
OF men who run the meat trust none
would steal a single cent,
TO make their gains in legal ways is
always their intent;
They would not pick pocket or strip
linen from a Tine;
In fact, they are free to tell you they
are honest and benign.
The only right that they assume is az
to cost of meat
And everything not vegetable that hui
man beings eat;
They tell us what we have to pay for
tenderloin or chuck,
And fAel much hurt when they are
scratched by raker raking muck
Yet must we tell the solemn truth. al

We'd like to see them canvass wrap

to speak enthusiastically of

Down at the police station the other
night gray-haired old mother plead
ed with Captain Millican to help her
save her daughter Tears streamed
down her cheeks as she told how she
had come to the officers as a last re-
sort; how she had exhausted every
means to win the girl from her erring
ways, without avail; how she had real
soned pleaded, threatened to no pur-
pose. She told how the girl, spirited
and wilfull, had become infatuated
with the ways of the world; how she
had wandered from the counsel OF
childhood and sought out companion
ship that attracted first by glamour
and then scared and blistered by con-
slant contact. 1t was a sad story but
almost a hopeless case.

Political Recommendations.

1T may not be inappropriate here to
explain The reason why so-called po-
litical recommendations must be
sought in the appointment of super
visors in most of the districts. Neither
the director of the census. his superior
officer, the secretary of commerce and
labor, nor the president can possibly
have personal acquaintance through
out the country with men suitable to
fill these positions. nor even with men,
outside of political positions, whose
advice they can seek. The representa-
tive of the district in congress or the
party leaders in the district have the
necessary knowledge of local condi-
tons and local men. and it is not only
natural but practically necessary as a
matter of good administration that
they should be asked to make recon-
mendations for positions of this char
acter.
Importance Is Appreciated.
fortunately members of congress
and party leaders are coming more and
more to appreciate the importance of
accurate census statistics. The spoils
idea of appointments is growing con-
stantly less dominant. The director of
the census has done everything posi-
BILE to impress up those whose opinions
, were asked regarding the supervisors
ships the importance of the necessity
of having men of marked executive
ability and of absolute integrity. The
information furnished by members of
congress and party leaders regarding
, the candidates whom they have rec
commended has been supplemented by
full personal statements required from
each candidate, and in most cases by
numerous letters of Endorsement from
business and professional men,
