to lve-for someone.
For whom?
Roosevelt wanted them to work throughout
all time for the people as WHOLE
The answer seems to be up to Mr.. Taft. If
so, he will meet no more momentous problem In
fare of millions of men and women now unborn,
when he decides. In the name of a better Amer
lea, may he have wisdom and patriotism to decide
Alright.
When Garfield was secretary of the interior
he had lists made by the reclamation service
engineers of all these waterpower lands, and as
fast as the lists were turned in, Roosevelt with
drew them from entry Some OF them were
homestead lands; some mineral lands, some
desert lands, some timber and stone lands. All
of them were being eagerly snapped up. not for
homes, but for monopoly-through all the ages.
NOW BALLINGER is RESTORING THE
WATER POWERS, AND COAL LANDS, TOO,
TO THE LIST OF LANDS OPEN TO ENTRY
AND OPEN TO LOOT!
Whatever may be Mr.. Ballingers mental
attitude, he is making possible atrocious
robbery OF the people of this nation; and not
only of the people of today but their children;
and not only their children, but their posterity
literally long as the shines and the water
runs. 1t is the height, the depth. the acme OF
iniquity.
Mr.. Taft, stop him! In the name of justice,
II he Is blind, see for him! If he is callous, feel
for him! If he is without power to estimate the
awfulness of this crime think for him!
Save the water powers. and the coal, and
the phosphates for the people. Remember what
you have said about the Roosevelt policies. No
body wants to hold you to literal performance
of all Roosevelt policies. But those in the incep-
ton of which Roosevelt rose to such high states
manship-carry them out!
Mr.. Ballinger says he knows of no law for
holding these precious lands from entry. Roose-
vet's secretary and his lawyers were satisfied
AND IN THE NAME OF JUSTICE STOP Ball
LINGER UNTIL THE COURT OF LAST RE-
SORT SAYS YOU MUST LET THEM BE EN-
TERED. MAKE AN ISSUE OF 1T! THE PUB
Lie OPINION OF THE NATION WILL BE THE
LAW BACK OF YOU, AND WILL FORCE
CONGRESS TO PUT A STATUTE BACK OF
YOU. GIVE THE PEOPLE, NOT THE MO-
NOPOLISTS, THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT.
TO HESITATE IS TO LOSE HIS OPPOR-
TUNITY FOREVER.

A PLEA FOR THE MARKET.
Editor Tacoma Daily Times:

Editor Tacoma Daily Times:
Sir:-I want to raise a protest
against the killing of our public
market by the city officials. The
market has been conducted in an
orderly manner. and the public
wants to know why 1t should not
iremain. / have watched it close
| ly and there has never been any
disorder there. 1t is a safe place
for our wives and children to go
and 1t is a good thing for them to
be able to see what the beautiful
country around us produces.
II the city officials. and the
lcouncilmen want to tackle some
thing that is real nuisance and
mot a benefit to the community
let them devote their attentions to
the tenderloin district and the sa-
looms. They license these agen-
cies that are destructive to the
peace and good order of the CON-
munity and then try to kill the
public market which is helping to
develop and build up the city.
Is 1t any wonder Christian citi-
zens have little respect for the
public officers?

and his carriage had been set In
Ia less obtrusive spot, and the fact
|of his alien presence was quite
forgotten until shortly after Cha
grin had dropped into the nights
first deep slumber. Suddenly he
was reused by a wall, and his
grievance leaped back to him in
magnified form!
A baby I'm the house! A sniv-
cling kid that slept all day and
kept himself and everybody else
awake all night. He wouldn't
stand 1t.
A fresh burst of wailing from
the far end of the hall.
No! By CAD, he wouldn't wait
till morningi He couldn't afford
to lose another nights rest. He
would act now.
Cording his dressing robe about
his tall form, Chagrin started
down the hall, undecided whether
to protest to the landlady or direct
to the point of, disturbance. Be-
fore he had reached a conclusion
Mrs. Burlingame's door flew open,
and Mrs. Burlingame, in a Devil
dering lacy thing and her long
beautiful hair in confusion, burst
upon his astonished gaze.
Now was his time to speak, but
before his lips could frame the
words "Oh, Mr.. Chagrin," she
cried I'm SO glad I found you.

Chagrin never really understood
how he found himself, clad only in
pajamas and dressing gown and
bath slippers, out on the sidewalk
in a temperature near zero, SCOOP
ing handfuls of snow from the
bank in the gutter. Back he rush
ed and up the stairs regardless of
wet feet and goose flesh.
ooh, I thought you'd never
come" was all the thanks he got,
as the distracted mother plunged
her hands into the feathery cold
ness and applied 1t to the CULVER
ing, painting breast of the child.
When at last the dread visitant
had been vanquished and Richard
E. Burlingame with one of baby
hoods marvellous recoveries slum-
bered peacefully III dry bedclothes,
she thanked Mr.. Chagrin as only a
young and pretty mother can
thank a man who has rendered a
service to her child.
"And I don't care IL you do
wake him." she concluded. "You
may kiss him, Mr.. Chagrin. You
certainly deserve it."
Chagrin bent over the child S
crib, and then went back to his
bachelor suite with a glow about
his shriveled bachelor heart that
was more than a match for incipi-
|ent pneumonia.
The next day there was a new
star boarder in the house. Arthur
Chagrin had been succeeded by
Richard e. Burlingame, jr., aged
Is months.

The Market Is Here to Stay

whole Institution up to help the grocery trust.
But they will not do 1t.
Not unless every councilman who has hand
IN Il wants to commit political hari-kari. There
will be petition before the council this week
that will pretty clearly indicate to the solons
that they had better go slow in their scheme to
kill the peoples market.
The market in Tacoma was started after
the rush Of last summers produce season was
over The council dilly-dalled and refused to
let the market start until 1t was too late to let
the people have any benefit last summer, and
now some of them seem determined to kill the
thing before the season opens this year.
1t is time for the people to sit down hard
ests Tacoma needs the market, and 1t needs
It now There has been much ado about the
condition of ID street. Instead of trying to
remedy the condition, city officials have pro-
ceeded to kill the whole market.
Nothing has occurred in the last year that
has done much for Tacoma as this market

It established new business center. 1t gave a
new impetus to the movement to push business

were enough excuse for the life of the market.
But 1t has also broken the backbone of the

men can get together and say what the people
shall pay for what they eat is gone.
The market is here to stay.

Almost the start of this conservation bust
ness was the withdrawal from entry by Roose-
welt of lands affording water power.
And Roosevelt was right. Water power is
far more precious than gold or diamonds. When
we shall have learned that gold is dross and da-
monds as worthless quartz these water
powers that Roosevelt tried to save from the
clutch of the great electric companies will be
furnishing power, heat and light to the race.
