important to elect a republican legis-
lature than it is republican
governor, for the former and not the
latter, creates conditions. But re-
publican governor should be elected
too.
Mr.. Eddy touched upon the tariff, ex-
planning that protective tariff is a
duty on commodities which we pro-
duce ourselves and revenue tariff a
duty on those products we do not pro-
duce. The republican party is pro-
tective tariff party and the demo-
cratic party a party for revenue only.
There is good deal of fapdoodle,
said the speaker, in this conservation
talk The only way to conserve
natural resources is to use them.
The only way to lose resources is to
leave them alone. People of this day
are entitled to all the natural re-
sources they can use without paying
tribute to combines or corporations.
Mr.. Eddy spoke briefly on the bene-
fits OF good roads, but said that Bob
Dunn holds letters patent on that SUBJ
ject and he did not propose to in
fringe upon them for fear of conse-
quences. He said good word for
thee republican candidate for gov
ernor, for Congressman Miller and
forS Mr.. Dunn. he touched upon
county option, saying that the legis-
lature will either be county option or
anti-county option and that the
recommendatio of the governor will
not:change it one way or the other.
Speaking of the democratic nominee
for governor he said he was selected
personally by Frank Day and that
the selection was afterwards ratified
by the democratic central committee.
In conclusion he urged the people
to vote as they >thought right. He
said that to vote was duty which no
American citizen should shirk.

Anti-saloon League Meet,np

Two Anti-Saloon league speakers,
VIM. A. Rice, prohibition candidate
for the state senate, and P. J. Young
dahl, superintendent of the league,
addressed an audience at the court
house hall on Tuesday evening. Rev.
Goodell introduced Mr.. Rice, who ex-
planned the platform upon which he
was running and said that he believed
in government for and by the people.
He advocated good roads, reforesta-
ton, etc., and said that the power of
the people should be returned to them.
he believed in electing United States
senators by direct vote of the
people, in the initiative, referendum
and recall, and in the extension of the
primary law to include state officers.
He explained county option and be-
rated the saloons. He said he was an
independent candidate and asked the
citizens, regardless of party, to vote
for him and the principles which he
advocated.
Mr.. Youngdahl spoke of the great
struggle which was being waged be-
tween the people and the interests
struggle for government by and for
the people. He said the paramount
issue of the campaign was a moral
one-county option-and not a con-
test between parties. Party lines to-
day amount to practically nothing;
there are two groups of men in every
party, those for and those against
county option. The burning question
OF the day, be said, is whether the
people of the state should rule in
regulating the saloons or whether the.
brewery interests should rule. He
expressed an opinion that the republic
cans favored county option more SO
than the democrats. When we ask
for county option, he said, we are
merely asking for protection for our
homes and our children against the
abominable institutions which are de-
bauching manhood. If you want con-.
servation, reapportionment and good
roads you must vote for such men as
Mr.. Rice, Mr.. Morton, Mr. Dunn and
Mr.. Davis-they are on the right side
OF this great moral issue-county
option-and will work for the inter-
ests of the people. The speaker
scored Ed Smith, Senator Swanson
and Frank White, as was only to to
be expected from the chief orator of
the Anti-Saloon league. He also took
a shot at Governor Eberhart, saying
that when lieutenant governor he
appointed eight saloon men on the
temperance committee and that the
brewers we're solidly behind him to-
day. He considered Jas. Gray a
good man for governor and was glad
that he was Endorsed by the county
optionists.
At the close of the meeting a collec-
ton was taken up to defray the ex-
penses of the same

The Only Way

1t Is the only way, it is all can do
That's the way Fletcher johnson, whose wife is on
trial for her life III Tacoma court sizes up the sit
uation. And this in the face of Mrs. Johnsons direct
testimony that she had not played fair game with
her husband.
Since Mrs johnson came to trial for the murder
of the man, whom evidence shows had wrecked the
johnson home Fletcher johnson has been at his
wifes side. When men and women damned the
court to hear the veil torn from the erring
wifes soul, johnson was there to aid her. When
she returned to him, after publicly telling the
stand her intimacy with the dead man. her husband
reached out his and endeavored to cheer her up
When she tainted after the ordeal, the husband
there to support her and urge her through the
hour of trouble.
AND YET THIS FLETCHER JOHNSON SAYS,
GIT is ALL 1 CAN DO.''
Many men who have heard Mrs. Johnson's testi-
money have made sundy lntlmatlons as to what they
would do had woman treated them as did Mrs.
johnson her husband. But still this fellow johnson
says, cit is the only way"
And who is there to tell johnson that there is some
other way2 What does man know about such
things who has been through the fire? Before
a sees into his home the little miracle of
Gods goodness in the shape of tiny baby, he may
think that he knows things. Then he decides that
the A b C's of life still before him.
Don't try to make hero out of Johnson. That
would spoil it ALL Just cheer up about it and take
1t for granted that many another man IN Johnsons
place would do the same thing. Maybe you say you
wouldn't, but then maybe you would You never
can tell until you we been tested You'd have good
excuse not to? Well maybe, maybe-but remember
johnson doesn't say, "look at what I'm doing for
that woman" He just says, cts the only way, it
is all do In fact johnson seems to be rather
humble about it. He doesn't realize hes doing BIG
thing but the bgness of it has humbled him to the
extent that he wishes he could do more.
So don't go about intimating that Johnson is
foolish. He has children, you have. He
has wife, she s in trouble and she played him false
But johnson thinks it's his duty to stand by her;
says it's the only way If you think you know bet
ter way for johnson to act don't tell him about it
because your way would sound foolish in comparison
with his.
