 And breathed upon the earth

LIVELY TINE WITH PYTHON
Experience When Reptile 6reaks Lcose.

Once when the British gunboat Rat tier was in eastern waters the crew had lively time l~cling after python on board tha; got loose.
 Besides the pythor trere was on board big Borneo O rg1utarg. The python. which was O. 22 feet iH length, having dined eorfily q deer about three week before, gan to feel its appetite returning, aad in searching about It's bcI fer place of egress found one side i- ha1 repair. It did not take the htn , us to come through the veal ra:'t. lnd. quite unobserved, it began its peiam- bulatiops around the boat
 Seeing the orangoutang chained up few yards off, the big snake invited itself to a dinner very much to it's taste. It would have been all over with the orangoutang had not the quartermaster at that moment made the discovery that the two pets were about to be merged into one. He promptly cut the orangoutang loose. The latter was up the masthead be- fore any mischief could be done, and a lieutenant, the proprietor of the orangoutang, the luartermaster. and member of the crew flung themselves upon the hungry python-one at the head, another at the tail, and a third in the middle
 Then the fun began, for the python wanted to get one of the aggressors nicely in it's coils, and the men were determined 1t should be kept out in something as nearly approaching a straight line as possible.
 For minute it was the Laocoon group all over again. only in this case the three men and the snake were sprawling over the deck instead Of standing upright in a classic attitude.
 Achievements, however. arrived in hot haste, and about 20 bluejackets, each embracing a foot of python. re- duced the reptile to comparative quiescence. The procession marched back to the python's box. coiled the creature inside, and shut it up. But the orangoutang sat aloft in the mast head long time before he came to the conclusion that he was off tho menu for the day.

There are numerous ways of punish ing man. Sometimes he is sent to the penitentiary: sometimes he is hanged. Why not order him to attend a dance, remain until three o'clock in the morning and then force him to arise at the usual time next morning and perform his usual work all day? That would be something new and ex- quisite in punishment. Atchisun Globe

THE POSTAL SAVINGS BANK

Whether the establishing of such an institution as
the postal savings bank by the United States govern
ment will be of any real good to any class of the
American people is debaeabe question, but the law
passed because great many of the voters de-
manded it. There is thing certain it can do no
harm. A great many persons. who are afraid OF
themselves will take advantage of it and hide their
savings therein 1t, however, will not withdraw any
great amount of money from general circulation be-
cause the law permits the government to invest that
money in government bonds which of course puts it
back into circulation. The wage worker, who each
week small pittance the cost of living,
should have some safe and secure way of outstanding
his savings but if he she is without home and it
all paid for and the we'll supplied with the neces-
sites of life it would pay hundred per cent greater
returns to put the savings into home than into any
kind of bank Too many persons are struggling to
boast of a bank account, when they live In either
miserable shack in house for which they pay
monthly rental and told in plain English, if any re-
pairs made the the tenant will have to do
it the will not. The wage Garner, who owns
fair size lot in the suburbs of the city, and keeps
that well cared for will not have much to put in
ings bank that is for the first years. but if the
home is we'll cared for, nice garden raised every
year the back part of the lot, in the of time
one may be able to savings bank, but if any bus
mess sense at all be exercised you will the home
institution the heads of which you ought to be well
quainted wth and having small account with the in
stituton you always able to get aid in case what
you have runs out. To the farmer the postal savings
bank have some advantages and it should be profit
eddy it. AS said above the institution can do no
harm and if it does any good or gives confidence to
one person the whole country it will be worth the
effort it cost to have it passed.
The Seattle Republican., 1910-06-17
HOLDING A COUNTY CONVENTION

of course it would be more in keeping with both
the spirit and the letter of the law for the Republicans
of King county, and every other county OF the state
for that matter, to hold regular primary to choose
delegates to the county convention, who in turn would
choose delegates to the state convention, and that
course should be pursued if the county central commit
tee has the means to do so with. The law, under
stand has made no provisions for the payment of the
EXPENSES for holding such election and if that be
true then up to those who desirous of
having primary election for the purpose named
above to put up the cash for the expenses of the
same The man who is advocating such procedure
has an axe to grind and hopes by the coming together
of such body to be able to gain some kind of an ad
vantage over some opponent. 1t does look like job
bng things so far the supreme court is concerned
to send such constituted delegation to the state con-
venton but the delegation elected by the county con-
vention will go instructed to nominate George E.
Morris the same the selected by the county
tral committee and for that reason nothing to
be gained by the holding Of county convention. All
the senatorial aspirants from King county want all
personal politics. so far they concerned elimin
ated from the county convention and the delegates to
the state convention should not be sent to Tacoma
handicapped with senatorial candidate. If that is
done there is nothing to do but frame party plat
form and nominate members of the supreme court
and these nominations will be dictated by the corpora
tion whether the delegates be elected by the central
committee or by county convention. The state
venton should score the last legislature to the limit for
taking the nomination Of supreme court members out
of the peoples hands and again turning it to the
corporations and score the members thereof hard
enough to cause the next legislature to turn this par
ticular nomination back to the people again.

TAX PAYERS GRAFT FIGHTING

In organizing Tax Payers League for the purpose
of taking steps toward reducing the taxes of the
state county and city, long step in the right drec
ton has been taken. Every person with common
sense realizes that taxes in Seattle excessive and
there is no excuse in the world for them being high
as they are save to furnish graft money for
those fellows who eating two dollar meals at the
expense of the tax payers. Within the past five years
the assessed valuation of real property in Seattle has
been trebled and in many instances quadrupled but
despite that increase the rate of taxation has likewise
trebed 1t should cost but little to the gov
ernment now than did five years ago. but three times
as much money is raised by taxation every year, and
takes every cent that is raised to pay the running
expenses of the state government Every legislature
has to make large deficiency appropriations for many if
not ALL of the departments of the state government.
No body of in the state will find much work to
do as will the Tax Payers League and it is hoped that
every tax payer in the county will interest him or her
self in the work and try to devise some way to head
off the taxation burdens all of them have to bear To
argue that the is in the interest of the heavy
tax payers is the talk of idiot. If the running

STEALING FROM THE DEAD

Much is being said just now about DOCTORS lawyers
and undertakers stealing from the dead and there is
just cause for complaint. These human ghous plfer
and plumber the pockets of the dead because they can
not kick and they argue else has right to kick
We are all to an extent brothers keeper and when
one has gotten fair compensation for services rem
dered no more should be exacted from the dead.
1t was once said of in Yakima county, who
in going through the pockets of dead man, fifty dol
lars and revolver were found on the body. Where
upon justice of the peace issued warrant for the
dead man. The man tried for having carried con-
ceaed weapons convicted and fined fifty dollars. Of
course the fine was paid for the ghouls had it. Re-
peatedly in Seattle have physicians rendered enormous
bills for medical attendance person who was deaf
when found, but had accessible money It has been
said that all moneys found unknown dead are ap-
propriated by the first to- go through the belong
ngs and then The county is called upon to pay pauper
funeral expense. If that were not done expen-
sve funeral bill would get it. Such human ghous
ought to be sent to the penitentary.
