olympia Oct. 26.-A statement has
just been Issued by State Treasurer John
G. Lewis showing that in the biennial
period ended September 80, 1910, he
collected $1492. 40 from Pullman and
1896. 40 from Colfax. as the 10 per cent
due the state on liquor licenses issued by
those cities, and which had been delin-
quent to June 8, 1905. His total eol-
lections of money OF this character
amounted to $26, 6,77O.52.
The only railroad in the state which
| does Dot see fit to post the state rail
road commissions rsilrOad map in it's
stations is the O. R. & N. The commits
sion offered to furnish the maps free to
all railroads in the state il they would
agree to send the same out to their re-
spective agents for posting in the sta
/ tions for the use of the public. This the
O. R. & N. refused to do.
The state tax commission gives out
figures showing that property lying in
| incorporated municipalities in Whitman
county pays II % per cent of the total
taxes in the county and that the rail-
roads pay 1925 per cent. throughout
the state property of the class first
named pays 51.92 per cent of all the
taxes, while railroad property pays
13 81 per cent.
The indebtedness OF Whitman county,
according to figures received by the state
| bureau of inspection from the county
auditor, totaled only $SS73 Al on De-
cember 81, 1909 This is exclusive of
school district indebtedness, if any.
| Only three counties in the state had a
smaller Indebtedness. Whitman cOunty's 3
Indebtedness is comprised solely of un-
paid warrants.
Assessed Valuation Doubled.
Since the powers of the tax commits
sion were extended by the legislature of
| 1907 the assessed valuation of the
steam railroads in this state has more
| than doubled. In 1891 the total as
sessed valuation of the roads in Wash
ington was $12,O14,7O8, while for 1910
it is $100, ,157,754.
Escape Through Defective Law.
The two Skagit county bankers who
| accepted deposits for their bank at
Hamilton in that county when they
knew the institution to be insolvent,
escaped criminal prosecution because OF
the defective law then in existence. The
| supreme court has just held that these
men, August Schafer and Jacob Young
bluth, acted as individuals and not as a
corporation through regular corporate
| officers, and consequently cannot be pros
ecuted under the provisions of the law
in this respect then in existence. The
law was amended in 1907, but the men
we're guilty of their acts in 1905.
Failure meets the attempt of the
druggists to defeat the law of 1907 re-
quiring all retailers handling intoxicants
to pay an annual state tax of $25, as
the supreme court has just held against
the druggists in their test case. The
appeal came from the King county
superior court and the decision of the
lower tribunal is upheld, sustaining the
validity Of the law.

SEVENTH SON PRopHesy,

Four weeks from today the Iowa
legislature will convene to settle for
an excited electorate the question as
to who would be the next United States
senator from Iowa. There is a field
OF availabilities and a few candidates
already in the race but as yet none but
the seventh son of a prophet can pre-
dict the winner and even he wants his
fee In advance. The only thing that
seems at all certain is that not even the
Standpatters themselves have any hope
Of electing LATE Young. Their efforts
eeem to be devoted to an attempt to
discover some minority candidate
among the progressives to whom they
can throw their vote and thereby elect
some other man than the majority of
the progressives prefer

1ame was suggested he Immediately
became the recipient of standpat over

- that he could be elected United

The coho.. Man.

Clifford T. Harmon. the aviator,
praised AT Belmont park, the enthusl-
asnn of the spectators.
But, then. you know people are al
WAYS enthusiastic at these meetings,
said the tall, rudy young sportsman.
'sThey are enthusiastic even when the
flights are poor They are determined
to be pleased-like the man from Co
hoes
"a man from Cohoes entered q con-
ference in New York and sat down
near the press table. 1t was noticed
that, tho he appeared bewildered, the
man was eager to be pleased He clap
ped boisterously at the slightest provo
cation and, where others only smiled,
ne would throw back his head and
laugh loud and strong.
at the end of an hour or an hour
and a half, the Cohoes man stopped mis-
noisy applause and mirth, and leaning
toward a reporter, he whispered:
"'Say, this is the white-faced min
strel show, amt it?'
"'Why, no. the reporter answered.
The white faced ministries are two
doors below
whats this, them he inquired.
"'This,' said the reporter. is the an
nual conference Of the Psychologists

"'Wall! said the Cohoes man. I'll
he.' And with look of disgust he hur-
ried from the hall" Washington

by standpatters that the majority OF
Senator Smith, Of Usage, for instance
the president pro tenn. Of the Iowa SEN
ate and a power in the constructive
work of progressive legislation for the
past twenty years But they can see
that if Kenyon can hold the support
Of the Tenth district, the largest pro-
gressive district in the state, the stand
! patters can elect him by throwing their
votes to him. 1t will soon be up to
Kenyon and his progressive friends in
the Tenth to decide whether they want
to win that kind of progressive vic
tory or not.
This is an old game of the minority.
Not long ago it was played success
! fully in the state central committee
elected chairman by the five standpat
members who We're in the minority, the
other five progressives having pre-
ferred another candidate. And it was
worked in the last session of the legis-
lature when the standpat minority of
the house named the progressive for
speaker who would not have been
named had the majority of the pro-
sressives been able to control. 1t is
politics.
And then to confuse the situation
pa J,p, thot no 1ac g of 20
merely mark time in this senatorial
election by electing some aged digni-
tary as an honorarium and leave the
field open to the world in the pri-
mary. If this is done the progressives
Will then either have SO many candi-
dates running III the primary of
1912 that the stan9patters can
elect a real staudpatteT Or {; selection
mary race will have to be made by
self appointed confreres. They are
probably fully as competent to make
a wise selection and as a rule vastly
more concerned for the success of the
cause but the legislature hight as we'll
go about il III an orderly legal way and
elect the senator who should succeed
in the primaries. If it fails to make
a wise selection the voters can exer-
else their referendum in the primary.
If the choice of a majority Of pro-
gressives can win in the legislature he
will by right become the progressive
candidate in the primary whereas if
the minority progressive IS elected by
sIandpat votes the chances are that
the progressive majority will put its
candidate up in the primary and the
standpatters will put a standpatter into
the race which Will leave the progress
sive elected in the legislature by stand
pat votes stranded without following
from either faction. Such is the Plain
Talk of the situation.

FOR COLORADO RE.
PuBLiCANS is AT HAND.

Individual members of the Republic
an party now have the opportunity to
exercise their rights as party men and
women Within the next three weeks
all primaries and conventions will be
held. 1t is at the conventions that
the future policies of the party will
be announced and il is at the primar-
les that the people have the right to
initiate the policies they may desire.
Any Republican who does not attend
his primaries and contest for delegates
to the county and other conventions
who will carry out his wishes. will
have no valid objection to any policy
the party may pursue.
The Republican party is the expon-
ent of the will of majority of its
membership. Any man believing in its
tenets hase the same right to work for
the aggrandizement of his ideas as
any other man. Especially is this true
in Colorado this year. Chairman Work
from the minute he assumed control
of affairs has made 1t known to the
masses and understood by the few that
no clique will control this fall.
Say to your people" has been his
favorite expression and that means
that he was comforting with the party
as a whole and not any self-styled
leaders.
And so 1t is that now the policy of
Republicanism is in the hands of the
many in Colorado, Three weeks more
and that policy will be announced.
Every member of the party owes 1t to
his individual community to partici-
pate at its framing by attending the
caucuses, discussing the questions at
issue, dissecting all proposed candi-
dates and in every other way possible
assisting in hammering out program
that will meet his approval.-Pueblo
Chieftain.
The above is right in line with Her
aid sentiments. We want Republicans
Of La Plata coz nty to meet and t.lk
over matters in every precinct, and
let committeeman in as many pre-
cincts as possible meet and select dele
gates and discuss the interests of the
people.

1t Is the supreme court law library
to purchase a law library for the
state. Part of this was raised from
twenty-dollar payments by the young
men to Join Colorado's bar. Many
of these young men had to borrow
the money. They were just out of col
lege and broke. The law imposing
this fee said 1t would be used to pur.
! chase state law library to which
they would have free access. The rest
OF this money comes from the excess
fees collected from litigants. 1t, too,
was to be used for a law library.
Is there more that need be said ?
Be it to the everlasting credit of the
Republicans they voted against ac-
cepting any pay and especially hard
did they fight against taking money
collected from poor students and state
litigants for library endowments, to
pay the expenses of this needless ex.

who contributed his twenty dollars to
