Washington Needs Farmers

Back to the soil or starve! Thus
might be epitomized the conditions in
the state of Washington. Investiga-
tons made by Gov. M. E. Hay show
that in this state two-thirds of the pop
ulation live in cities of 5000 and over.
OF the remaining one-third half live in
towns and cities and are non-producers
of food products. This leaves one
sixth to be engaged in numbering,
wheat raising, stock raising, fruit rails
ing, fishing, dairying, and produce
raising. Half Of this sixth engage in
numbering and piscatorial pursuits.
Half of the remaining one-twelfth raise
wheat and fruit exclusively. This
means that only one man in twenty
four is engaged in raising from the soil
the meats, poultry, eggs, dairy pro-
ducts and produce, hay, oats and gen.
eral supplies to feed the people OF this
large and growing state. This &C.
counts for the immense imports of the
necessities of life into the state.
What a chance for farmers! What 8

veatCh for Congress

Boyd P. Doty of Seattle, state super
intendent of the Anti-Saloon League,
has sent word to Colville that the Or
ganization will indorse the candidacy OF
A. E. Veatch, of Colville, for congress,
and that the announcement Of the fact
will appear in the American issue for
March.
This is the third organization to in
dorse the candidacy of Mr.. Veatch, the
other two being the republican editors
of Stevens county and the Ministerial
Association OF Colville.
Twenty-nine newspapers in the Third
congressional district are now support
ing his candidacy.
One thousand voters of Stevens
county are signing large petitions, ask
ing the other counties OF the district to
unite and give Mr.. Veatch the nomina-
ton.
Mr.. Veatch, who is the editor of the
Colville Statesman-Index, is pro
gressive" republican and is making his
fight for the nomination to succeed
Miles Poindexter on platform fayoring
downward revision OF the tariff and the
Pinchot policy Of conservation.
He is opposed to Cannonism and
Aldrichism. He favors Roosevelt
progressive ideas and is a supporter of
Miles Poindexter.
In the recent local option election in
Stevens county Mr.. Veatch led the
fight, which resulted in a complete
rout of the saloon power, and by reason
of this fact will have the support of the
dry element OF the district.
Mr.. Veatch is a successful newspa-
per man, hard fighter, and will make a
telling campaign. Spokane Chronicle.

Regular Council Meeting

When the city council met in regu-
lar session last Tuesday evening all the
members were present. After the rout-
inc business OF opening was attended
to the first matter to come up was the
removal of the Turner house from the
east end of Front street. The street
and alley committee was empowered to
have the house removed.
Day Marshal Teshera and Night
Marshal Mckenzie both had their resig-
nations on file, to take effect April 1st.
The same were received and accepted.
The petition Of c. M. Wilcox, ask
ing to be appointed marshal, with 116
names on it, was laid on the table.
The council decided to pay all city
officers on the first of the month and
instructed the clerk to issue warrants
for salaries on the first of each month.
The street and alley committee was
empowered to do whatever seemed
necessary on the north side of the track
to protect the streets and provide
drainage.
The clerk was instructed to notify
property owners having wooden avn
ings and porches extending into the
street to have the same removed within
ten days.
The appointment of Mike Fitz to be
day marshal was confirmed by the
council.
The following bills were allowed

Great Northern Time Table
Trains depart from Leavenworth:

portion of said stocks at valuations
based on the profits that the higher
prices would yield.
To illustrate: You possess a $50
COW, whose milk you sell your neigh
bors at A cents a quart. The promoter
buys your COW, raises the price of milk
to cents quart, then sells the COW
to Neighbor Jones for 500, because
she is twice as profitable as before.
But Neighbor Jones has SO worth OF
hens and sells you eggs at IS cents a
dozen. The promoter buys the hens,
puts eggs to 80 cents a dozen, and
sells you the hens, now twice as profit
able as formerly, for $40. AS a net
result OF these operations the promoter
has extracted a profit of $40, and milk
and eggs are higher.
Out of the issuance and manipula-
ton of the two thousand millions of
watered stock high finance extracted a
vast profit. The single issue Of Steel
Common, wich was pure water, is now
worth four hundred million dollars. In
order that it may be worth that, the
steel trust charges such prices as yield
ed net profit Of forty million dollars
the last quarter.
Not that this little parable is ade-
quate TO explain high prices, but it is
one Of the things that help TO explain
them. Saturday Evening Post.

Farmers to Sell Direct to Consumers

The most important meeting of the
farmers union in Idaho, which may re-
suit in revolutionizing the present sys-
tenn OF disposing Of grain, live stock
and other agricultural products, was
held in Lewiston this week, when sew
eral hundred farmers from the north
west met with delegates from locals in
Asotin, Nez Perez, Idaho, Latah and
Shoshone counties. They plan tc
handle all farm products and to arrange
for the opening Of a branch Office il
Lewiston to cooperate with the Coas
offices, and if the plans prove feasible
it is a question OF short time, so the
leaders of the movement assert, wher
the line grain companies will either b.
absorbed by the farmers unions o

A WHIRLWIND CAMPAIGN
Senators DolIiver, Bristow, Clapp, Cum
minis, LaF gillette and Borah Are All
to Campaign in This State

A recent Washington dispatch to the
Spokane Chronicle says:
A sextette Of "progresives" in the
United States senate-silver-tongued
orators from Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota,
Wisconsin and Idaho-will stump the
state of Washington in a whirlwind
campaign in the interests Of Miles
Poindexter.
The Spokane man will make the
greatest campaign Washington has ever
known for the. seat in the United
States. senate, and he will be assisted
by Senator Jonathan P. Dolliver oil
Iowa, Senator Joseph L. Bristow oil
Kansas, Senator Moses E. Clapp oil
Minnesota, Senator Albert B. Cum
minis OF Iowa, Senator Robert NJ La
Toilette of Wisconsin and Senator Will
liam E. Borah of Idaho.
These firey-tongued orators of ma
tional reputation will stampede the
state of Washington for Miles Poin-
dexter, and the entire state will be
covered by the distinguished party in
the interests of the Spokane man. All
Roosevelt republicans and thoroughly
progressive, these men are among the
leaders in the G. o. P. of the United
States.
Word has just reached Spokane that
Miles Poindexter has completed ar
engagements for the coterie of diStin-
guished members OF the upper house
to campaign with him in this state and
his supporters are jubilant over the
prospects in the coming fight.

More than 100000 has been
added by the house to the appropria-

on postoffices and post roads for the
rural free delivery service for the year
ending June 80, 1911. This appro-
priation, it was stated, would be suffi-
cient to permit the establishment Of

it would make available for such ex-
tension about $1,500,000 During the

Punish the MiIIionaires

Under the above head the Inland
Herald makes the following comment:
Mr.. Justice Dill of New York is the
penitent father Of modern trusts. Vainly
does he regret that he ever discovered
way for these transgressors, or so he
tells US. Furthermore, he is trying to
make their way hard one now. He
would Jail the leaders of commerce
who violate the law.
Yes, the way Of the trust magnate
is not bed OF roses. The rich and
needless who travelled the primrose
paths and sowed the winds are now
reaping the whirlwinds.
Justice Dill recently said: For
seven years I built up trusts, and for
five years I have been trying to cor
rect the job"
Continuing, he justified the impris-
oning OF trust magnates and said that
fines were useless. In part his words
follow:
Place responsibility for violations Of
law upon the persons responsible.
What happened to Morse and what
happened to Walsh indicates the eff
fective method of discouraging wrong
doing. l have never looked with pa
tience on the fining of a corporation.
Inflicting fine as penalty is inficting
punishment on the innocent stock
holders. Penalties should be laid
upon persons responsible. In con-
Guiding his argument, the Justice said
that he believed that the penalty for
all wrongdoing should be personal
the Jail and no alternative.
There is much wisdom in this con-
tention, not as applied to trusts and
corporations alone, but to individuals.
What is oftener heard than some
comment TO the effect that Smith or
Brown was fined $25 or $50 for viola
ting some law, such as speeding"
thru the streets2
"Oh he has plenty Of money" or
He considers it a joke" are common
remarks in such cases.
Johnson and Ketchel, the plug-ug-
lies who recently defed policemen and
police judges who had prescribed 500
fines for fast automobile driving, are
examples of the failure of the fning
method.
Johnson, who insolently upset Jap
anese laundry wagon, cursed the driver,
'joshed" the policeman who arrested
him, and laughed at the 500 fine, is
an example in point. He went from
the courtroom and ran another race
through the streets. For this he was
not even arrested. Suppose he had
been sent to Jail for 100 days with no
alternative! Could anybody have OBJ
jecte? He had been duly warned, but
even otherwise, all men are supposed
to know the law.
Let corporations and negro prize
fighters be given the same dose-the
narrow cell and no alternative. Six
feet of earth are said to equalize all
ranks. and conditions. This six feet
refers to those who await the judgment
day. We think six-foot cell might
make good dogs out of many inso-
lent, daredevil criminals. Try it.
