PINCHOT and The PEOPLE.

The people are with Clifford Pin
chot
That is the impression one gains
of the situation In Washington from
this distance.
by unfolding Secretary Ballinger,
the President has precipitated one
OF the most bitter fights OF political
history and one that, from present
appearances, would seem to hasten
the day OF the organization OF the
new National party of which so
much has been said.
When members OF the House of
Representatives are so aroused that
Republicans and Democrats combine
&C. take power from the hands of
Tic Republican Speaker, you may
know that the revolt, generally ex-
pressed as the Insufgent movement,
l. no small affair; you may know
that the smash-up of old party lines
Is coming nearer reality than ever
known in the last fifty years, and
I.upless some radical change takes
place in the Organization and con-
troll OF the present parties, the Pro-
l.gressivists will go out and make
their fight under an Independent
name and organization.
OF course, the Pinchot contest Is
merely an incident, though very
big one, that the Insurgents have
picked up in their fight on Cannon
ism. Nevertheless, there Is behind
II all the conflict of the Interests
and the People. Pinchot represents
the People, and the liberal element
of the Republican party haven't
taken their political lives in their
hands without feeling sure OF the
backing, sure indeed OF the demand
of their constituents.
As for Forester Pinchot's contest
with Secretary Balllnger, 1t seems
now as IL Mr.. Pinchot had been
playing for just the situation that
has developed. He has forced the
administration to choose between hiS
acts and ideals and the alleged ques.
tionable position OF the Interior De-
partment In the mix-up OF its head
with the Guggenheims and Trusts
generally. Pinchot, OF course, had
to be disciplined II Ballinger were
retained In office. But the expulsion
OF Pinchot and the wiping out or
the force of notably successful and
efficient officers of the Forestry bu-
reau, creates mountain where the
CLAWS Dismissal was a mole-hill.
Popular opinion will tend imme-
diately to the support of Pinchot as
against Ballinger, because Pinchot,
en- the face of 1t, has nothing to gain
and everything to lose by counting
such a serious issue with the Secre-
tary of the Interior and the Presi-

over to DR.. Grieve, city health of.
ficer, who called meeting of the
health board At this meeting the
testimony of Superintendent V. B.
Harris and some other employees at
the isolation hospital was heard
and accepted in preference to that
of Nelson, causing the manage
ment of the isolation hospital to be
given another coat of whitewash.
The matter would have been
hushed up and never more heard
of, had not a newspaper reporter
resurrected the case accidentally
and brought the charges to the sur
face.
There have been frequent ref
erences to the case of Nelson by
former patients at the hospital in
intrviews had by The Press in the
last two weeks. All had the i'm
preston that Nelson had received
harsh treatment of some kind, but
none knew exactly what it was.
Nelson alleges that he was i'll
treated, ill-fed, poorly cared for and
that when he went to leave the
hospital he was beaten by Harris,
the superintendent, because he re-
fusd to pay the bill asked. Neil
son also says that Mrs. Harris, the
wife of the superintendent, who is
also a nurse on the payroll of the
city. abused the patients and that
the male nurse, Foreman, who
looks after the men smallpox cases,
was the dirtiest man he ever saw.
Nelson says that the isolation hos
pital is in a "villainous condition"
aud that things are generally bad
out there.

Spokane's citizens are entirely
lacking, apparently, in appreciation
of the aesthetic, according to J. M.
Goodwin, an engineer and architect
of New York, who apologized for
having to say it at the meeting of
the City Beautiful committee yes
terday at Davenport's.
While he said lots of nice things
of Spokane he rubbed it i'm because
the city has neglected, he declared,
to properly value the scenic adj
vantages of the Spokane river,
which surpasses even the beauties
of the famed Niagara gorge, said
the speaker.
The banks of the river are lit
tered with rubbish and debris of all
kinds, and unsightly shacks mar
every view of the great falls. Hid
eOus telegraph poles and wires and
heaps of old machinery shut out the
view. and there is no vantage point
where the visitor to your city can
view the falls and rapids in all
their grandeur" said Mr.. Goodwin.

Under this ordinance the burden
of high priced water will still rest
on the shoulders of some i--1
small home owners, paying under

these water consumers, as the

LUMBER IS HIGH;
BUT WAGES Low

Lumber dealers announce another
raise in prices but no correspond
ing advance in the wages of their
employees.
The wage earners employed in
the lumber industry are the poorest
paid workingmen in Spokane. Men
with families are working about
the big mills for as low as 81 per
day, while skilled workmen in the
planning mills get as low as $3.50
and $2.75. And this for 10-hour
day, too.
The condition of men employed
in the mills of Spokane, who have

no union, as contrasted with those
crafts, affords the best argument
for the need of organization among
workers that can be given. In the
lumber industry the manufacturers
are said to want 1t all SO long as

Err WORkMEN IN MINE.

BURKE, March 26.-That they
saw the ghost of AL Leard, shift
boss in the Hecla, who was killed in
the Mace snowslide, is the state
ment of two timbermen who work
in the mine.
According to their story, Leard

wore while in the mine and carried
a light. Suddenly he disappeared
into the hanging wall.

said to have been seen. A timber
man and his helper were working
on the 900 foot level and they are
the only ones who saw the ghost.
Both of them are positive they saw

to which thew were subjected. the
