UNDER NON-PARTISAN HEAD
The Supreme Court Holds That Names
Can Go on the Ticket
But Once

The five candidates for positions on.
the supreme court who will oppose the
candidates selected by the hand
picked republican convention, have
elected to appear on the ballot as non
partisans. The supreme court, five of
whose members are before the people
for reelection, has decided that their
opponents cannot appear on the ballot
both as non-patisans and democrats,
altho they were nominated by both
conventions. This attitude on the
part Of the supreme court was antici-
pated by the bipartisan judiciary
league, and days before the decision
was handed down the notices of candi-
dacy had been filed with each county
auditor in the state on the non parti-
san ticket.
If decision Of the supreme court
vet carries any conviction, the latest
decree established beyond question the
non-partisanship of the non-partisan
candidates. The court virtually held
that they could not be non-partisan
and democratic, and the candidates
were forced to select the ticket on
which they would appear. Their
prompt and unhesitating choice OF the
non-partisan ticket forever sets aside
the question Of bi-partisanship. They
are now non-partisan in name, in fact
and by decision Of the highest tri-
bunal in the state There is no ques-
ton but what the non-partisan candi-
dates are placed at mechanical disad-
vantage by this decision Of the court.
There is a certain percentage OF voters
who are careless, excited or forgetful
in the voting booth, and doubtless not
a few voters will for one trifing reason
or another overlook the non-partisan
column and afterwards regret it. The
non-partisan candidates were fully aware
of this probability when they made
their selection, but the principle at is
sue overbaIanced any matter of vot-
ing expediency. They will depend
upon the hundreds OF volunteer non
partisan workers through the state to
make the ballot conditions clear to all
the voters, and reduce as much as pos
sible the mechanical handicap imposed
by the decision Of the supreme court.

The organization Of this special cam

equally widespread: the republican city
and county organizations are at the
best but Indifferent to the fate of the
convention candidates. Naturally their
sole remaining hope was an independ-
ent organization marching under the
banner Of sanctity'' and armed with
corporation dollars. Against the solid
ranks Of the Grange, organized labor
and the regiments of clear-thinking
voters, this weak sortie party can have
little or no effect. The only evidence
of their existence will be the notices
printed in the standpat newspapers.
The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1910-10-28

Organized labor thru the state is
lined up sohdly for the Non-Partisan
Judiciary ticket. The labor unions
have labor party which has county
and legislative tickets in the field, but
without exception the labor party has
endorsed the non-partisan Judiciary
and will vote for the non-partisan can
didates almost to a man. There are
nearly 10000 union labor vores in
King county alone, and if the non-par-
tisan candidates had no other support
than the Grange and the trade union
lists, they would in all probability carry
the largest county in the state.

THREE-CORNERED ROW.

Colorado Springs, Colo, June 21.
As a result of the payroll of the
police department having been held
up by c. n. Cox, clerk of the civil
service commission, the fight of sew
eral months ago as to the authority
of the commission has been renewed.
Mayor II. F. Avery takes issue with
Cox and both are quoting the law TO
sustain their respective positions.
Cox declares that in holding up the
payroll he acted within the ordin-
ances governing the duties of the
commission. He denies that he was
officially informed of recent advances
in salaries made by the police depart
ment, hence his rejection of the pay
roll
The row is NOT confined to the civil
service commission and the mayor.
Commissioner of Public Safety f. C.
Whitaker is clashing with his chief
of police. Stephen Armstrong. The
latter, it appears, allowed a patrol
man So for extra work" without
consulting the commission. and ac-
cording to Whitaker. this is not the
first time that the chief has been
guilty of insubordination." Whita-
wer adds. in effect. that he and not
lHt Cultl Is III authority ana lntlmateS
that unless Armstrong changes his
tactics there will be a new chief of
police.
Sentiment in the department is
divided between Whitaker and Arm
strong. The recent appointment of
c. S. Railsback as head" of detec-
tives has not been officially recogniz-
ed by Armstrong it is said. Arm
strong insisting on being chief of de-
tectives himself Whitaker is stand
ing by Railsback and Armstrong sug-
gests that there are so many heads
and so few officers that he is finding
it difficult to keep the department in
working" order
The system of retrenchment inaug-
urated by Mayor H. f. Avery has
seriously crippled the department. ac-
cording to the patrolmen, and with
the tourist season on there is need of
additions to the force 1t is probable
that several patrolmen will be added
and meanwhile the troubles of the
commission and the chief are keep
ing the department on the move.

Where do you think he is?" asked
Mopsie.
Hes gone to the council with Gov

who's that?" asked Mopsie suddenly.
Out of the darkness came q funny

stockings, faxen hair cut straight
around his ears like Mopsie The boy
gazed at her in astonishment.
WHO are your" she asked.
TN Jan Cornelissen." he said. "and
I'm playing hockey. I'm a bad boy,
and I'm glad of it."
Dear me! I've always been told the
little boys and girls were good in old
New Amsterdam" said Mopsie.
"The girls are, maybe" answered Jan.
''They never go sliding on the ice with
out the schoolmaster's permission. They
never coast down hill by the pond And
they're afraid of Indians. I'm not!"
Mopsie looked him straight in the
eye. She had heard her own brother
talk just like that and she had believed
him-at first. Afterward she found
that if he wasn't afraid of Indians he
was afraid to go to sleep In the dark,
and she suspected that Jan Cornelissen.
although he was playing hockey and
boasting about Indians. was really
afraid. So she looked him straight in
the eye.
Don't look behind you" she said
suddenly.
why not?" he asked.
Because in that corner under the
stairs where it's all black / see some
thing moving. It's creeping, creeping,
just as slow as can be. 1t has leather
on its feet and feathers in it's hair.
Don't move! Maybe it won't touch you

The White Ants

1t is estimated that two thirds OF the
island of Ceylon is undermined by white
ants The number OF these insects is
certainly quite incalculable; but ii is
fortunate that their natural enemies
are almost as numerous. The workers
are preyed upon by true ants and many
other insects; by spiders, lizards and
centipedes; by rats mice and palm
squirrels. But 1t is the adult winged
insects that are especially victimized.
1t is probable that scarcely / per cent
OF the mature insects survive the dan

the gauntlet of nearly every other ami
NAL Birds, bats, squirrels, rats, toads,

and cats eat the winged ants with

Mopsie wanted to help him, but she
felt her poetry getting weaker too.
I'm nearly through
With all my rhmyes.
What did you do
The other times?
"Why. I went away back to the place

Go back to him now!
I'D like to, but I'm afraid said
Flick Flack; "he'd scold dreadfully.
He thinks this is first class clock and
should never run down or get out of

And again Mopsie tried to comfort
him. She said:
But don't you see,
You're not to bamef
You stopped for me
Because l came
And talked to you
Till you forgot
What you had 10 do

But the troubled look on the little
shoe makers face made her forget the
poetry.
Il think you'd better take me back
with you," she said. II can explain

The little shoe maker cheered up and
moved over. In a moment Mopsie was
seated beside him and whizzing sound
echoed in her ear.
Oh, dear me, dear me!
Say where we.
And where we going fastf
seem to hear
Bells ringing clear
And queer things rushing past.
You're behind time my dear" said
Flick Fiack breathlessly. "and going

And Mopsie answered:
