of the Lake Washington canal, now
that the Supreme Court has knocked
out the project, believe the opinion
held by two of the Judges "that
there is no evidence that the United

The Ellensburg Ddwn says John
L. Wilson was once Democrat. To
quote the Dawn:
"He was a Democrat in 1886, and up
to and including the year 1885,"
The Darn must produce better
evidence and facts. other than it's

j Mrs. Ballinger, wife of Secretary
Ballinger, has arrived in Seattle
from Washington, D. c.
Mrs. Piles, wife of United States
Senator Piles, arrived in Seattle
about two weeks after Mrs. Bal
linger.
Suppose that the wife of cabinet
official takes precedence over the
wife OF a United States Senator,
hence Mrs. Ballinger arrived in Sc

In an address at Christiania, Col. y,
Theodore Roosevelt made use OF the
following language:
In new and wild communities where
there is violence, an honest man must
protect himself; and until other means
OF securing his safety are devised, it is
both foolish and wicked to persuade him
to surrender his arms while the men who
are dangerous to the community retain
theirs"

frontier days being enacted in Seat
tie; Indians in the streets; miners
bound for Alaska. gambling houses
being raided, probably both the Los
Angeles Times and Col. Theodore
Roosevelt are correct in their delina-
tions.
A business man of Kent, WASH.
has as neighbor an Engl:shman, who
likes glass now and then OF brandy
and soda.
Recently the Kent business man
was accosted by his neighbor thusly:

away. and wish to learn whether
or not you can find me tenant for
my house?"
The Kent business man replied that
he would try the best he knew how
to get him tenant, but il he should
succeed or not he did not know.
Why are you leaving Kent"
asked the Kent business man.
Well, you see" replied the
Englishman. my son used to oper-
ate a hothouse here, but he disposed
of it and moved with his family to
Auburn, and my wife wants to live
near them.
But" replied the Kent business
man, don't you know that Auburn
is wet town."
Certainly l do" replied the
Englishman, that is why wish 20
live there, myself"
