WHY DID THEY DO IT?

In another column of this paper
appears an account of the action of
the county commissioners in regard
to the county printing. The people
will want to know why these business
agents of the county have used such
poor business judgment in letting
a contract at the highest price and
securing the poorest service offered.
The Herald has tried to be fair in
presenting these facts. The loss of
the county printing amounts to but
a. small sum to the owners of this
paper, but the action of the COM
missioners is important to the tax
question which naturally arises is
Would the members of the board, if
letting contract for themselves,
personally, have accepted the bid of
the Gazette for % cents an inch,
with a circulation of but 100, when
the Herald's bid was for 20 cents,
with a guaranteed circulation of p
500? If they would not accept the
Herald bid, if it were their money
they were paying, or their work
they were having done, why did they
accept it for the cOunty?"
The commissioners are the guard
ians of the peoples money. They
audit and pay the county's bills. The
same business judgment should pre-
vail in handling the affairs of the
county as in handling private bust
ness matters and if it would not be
good business policy for individuals.
The excuse that 1.-The people of ColfaX
and vicinity thought that we did
wrong in taking the printing away
from the county seat last year" is
lame and should have no bearing
on the case. The people of Pullman,
Uniontown, Cotton, Garfield, Farm
ington, TekOa, Oakesdale, Rosalia
St. John, Endicott, Winona, La
Crosse and Albion are entitled to as
much consideration as the people of
Colfax. The people of the county
at large have frequently resented
the attitude of COlfaX and the poll
tici ans of the county, who hold out
the impression that ColfaX is the
whole cheese" in matters political
and should own, control and dictate
everything pertaining to the county
government.
The Pacific Farmers Union, which
made the bid for the county print
ing is a corporation of citizens, most
of whom are tax payers in Whitman
county They are nearly all farmers
and members of the strongest farm
ers organization ever organized and
that they will resent this turning
down by the commissioners when
their bid was the lowest and their
circulation the greatest, cannot be
doubted The loss of the printing
will not affect this paper nor its
owners, but the loss of the difference
between the price offered by the
Farmers Union and that accepted
from the Gazette, will come out of
the tax payers, many of whom will
believe that the deal was purely a
political one against the interests of
the people.

HAMILTON'S DISGRACE

The downfall of Ortis Hamilton,
adjutant general of this state, is one
of the saddest things that has occur
red recently Like all such calami-
ties, the suffering falls upon the in
nocent. Hamilton's aged and infirm
father, suffering with acute paraly-
sis, has been struck a blow from
which he will probably never recover
Upon his wife, the Pullman girl who
gave her happiness into his keeping
and whom he had sworn to love,
honor and cherish until death do us
part" and upon his little daughter,
the blow will fall with terrible force
For Ortis Hamilton we have no pity
mere was no possible excuse for his
action. He had a lovely wife, a posi-
ton of honor and trust, was drawing
a good salary and had the respect and
esteem of all who knew him. He had
peen complimented personally Tor
his work by President Taft and was
a man of more than ordinary ability.
He had no excuse of ignorance, nor
want upon which to lay his downfall.
All must condemn him and he is
deserving of no mercy. When his
wife and daughter were mentioned
to him he showed no feeling, but re-
NAMED steadfastly Indifferent TO the
charges and to the appeals for their
sake. But when Governor Hay
threatened to bring the name of the
alleged fallen woman, who had caus-

Governor Folk talked on the re-
form wave which was started about
eight or ten years ago, and he told
of the hard fight made in his own
state, starting with the fight he in
augurated against Doodle and graft
in St Louis, and being carried into
the state legislature. He recited
how high officials, including mem
bers of the city council city. county
and state and legislative officers had
been found guilty of all kinds of
crime, and had been sent to the peni-
Tertiary or made exiles in foreign
countries to escape the penalty of
their crimes, He told of the dark
days through which the nation pass
ed when bribery was not regarded
as crime and the sale of votes and
influence by city, county, legislative
and state officers was a common oc-
currence, and he pointed out that
brighter prospect is before the coun-
try because the public conscience has
been aroused and people look upon
such things as crimes for which Sc
we're punishment should be melted out.

He sorrowed over those who live aim

moved with compassion for the multi

He sorrowed over the poor. The
