WOULDNOT ALLOW VOTERS
TO HAVE COUNTY
COMMISSIONER

When a vigorous complaint wa
made by voters outside of the lars
cities in this state against the law
providing for the nomination OF comfy
commissioners from county at lars'
the Legislature sought to remedy tn'
evil by the passage of law proVidih'
that the commissioners shall be noml
mated by districts and elected by th'
county at large, thereby preventing Tn
large citis, if thy SO desired, from e
lecting all threeof the county comiss
toner's. This law is as follows:
CHAPTER 232
"The qualified electors of each coun
tv commissioner district, and they on
ly. shall nominate from among theli
own number, Candidates for the oillce
of conuty commissioner of such COM
missioner district to be voted for III
the following biennial election.
Such candidates shall be nominated I'D
tho same manner as candidates 1of
other county and ditrsict offices are
nominated, except as above. Approx
ed. March %, 1909.
The only object of this law is as
stated above. 1t prevents the popuious
centers fromelecting all of the coun-
ty commissioners. Mr.. kinsey appar-
emily had no objection to the law Oh
the 18th of September when he sought
but when his record was investigated
and he was repudiated by his neigh
bors, be caused a circular to be is
sued condemning the law from which
the following is quoted;
Nearly 5000 voters of Whatcom
County are actually deprived of their
choice of county commissioner by the
present law that was put on out

parties and the liquor element. that

ill. Every citizen of Whactom coun-
v knows that Senator Ed. Brown is
man of high moral character and
he voters will resent this slanderous
accusation that he is controlled by
he liquor element.
Not only has Mr.. Kinsey publicly co
lemned the law that allows the coun-
.ry people of Whatcom county to nom
nate one of their neighbors for office
If county commissioner, but he has
likewise opposed this just and fair la
in private and he wuold go back tol
he system where Bcllingham and OF
er large cities could nominate all OF
the commissioners if they so desired.

Seattle-In view of the enormous
damage done by forest fires during
the past summer, the protection OF
forests will receive unusual attention
from all government bureaus having
to do with their control and manage
ment, and congress itself is likely to
take a hand. In a letter he recently
wrote to Governor Hay, of Washing
ton, Secretary Ballinger made this
observation:
"A subject of very great import.
ance is the prevention and control O:
forest fires, both as relates to the
public domain and to State lands; also
to the protection of private interests
My observation has been that a large
percentage of forest fires is the result
of fires started by railroad iocomo
tives passing over the Cascade noun
tains. In my travels this summer
through California, was impressed

source, and until 80 prepared, shoul

disastrous accident in his last lap

In hand.
LeBlanc's first lap was new world
