SHERIFF HODGE

"oh. yes; l suppose he'll make a good enough sheriff, but
he's spoiled the best office in King county"
This statement was made by a King county politician TO
the editor OF The Star a few days ago. Sheriff Robert r.
Hodge was the man referred 20.
And in these few words this politician expressed the views.
of all those who have cndeavored in any way to cmbarrass
Sheriff Hodge since the date upon which he assumed the du-
ties OF has office.
HE HAS SPOILED THE BEST OFFICE IN KING
coUNTyi
You know what that politician meant, don't you'
He meant that Hodge had spoiled the office OF sheriff Tor
tho graftcrs. He meant that hereafter those who hold that of
flee will be compelled TO work for The salary attached thereto,
and will not be permitted TO take from the pockets OF the pub
lie sums aggregatng $4,000 per year.
1t was the greatest compliment that could possibly have
been paid TO Hodge. The Star told the people OF King county
many months ago that Hodge was a good man; that Hodge
was an honest man. and would make the best sheriff this COIN
" ever had. And he is honest. and is making the best sher-
if we have ever had. lie is turning in 10 the county treasurer
every month hundreds Of dollars that have hitherto been re-
tanned by the occupants Of that office, He has inaugurated re-
forms in the conduct 81 his office and the county jail which give.
10 the public competent service and which give 10 those unior-
Inmates confined in the Jail humane treatment.
Sheriff Hodge is certainly spelling" the best office in King
county. lie is establishing preccdents that Will make the office
OF sheriff a most undesirable one from the standpoint OF the
political CRATER. And so the politicians in the court house, and
some OF them hold high positions, will continue to throw rocks
forgetting that some day a missile may crash through the glass
houses in which they live and destroy them and their ambitions

A long time ago there lived a very
wonderful man In London whose
name was Topham. He was SO
strong that be could do what no
other man WA able 10 DO who lived
a. that time. he could bend an iron
poker AZ easily with his fingers as
you or ! could bend a little wax
candle.
One night Topham was on his
way home In London. when he
found a Waterman At the end OF a
street asleep ia his box. Now, In
those days watchmen had these
boxes 10 stay Ia. and they watched
everything around them all night.

neighborhood OF course a watch

was what be was hired for. Well.
this Waterman wag sound asleep,
and T0pham thought that he would
give the sleeper a little surprise and
teach him a lesson.
so he took hold OF the box and
lifted u mp on his broad back and
