find out whether Mr.. Teats has.
changed heart on the subject of
returning the judges to the di-
rect primaries. The matter of
nominating supreme judges will
come before the legislature this
winter, and if Mr.. Teats should be
elected he would be called on to
vote either for or against the
people.
When Peder Jensen, demo-
cratic candidate from Fern Hill,
took the pledge at the time he
filed his candidacy for senator in
the Twenty-ninth district he
struck out that part of the
pledge that said he would vote
for candidates receiving the high
est number of votes for the party
nomination for United States
senator and in place he inserted
this line: 81 pledge myself to
the highest vote for senator as
returned by the primaries" Con-
gresham Poindexter received a
majority of all votes cast for SEN
ator, and Mr.. Jensen is now out
with a signed statement in which
he says he will vote for Mr.. Poin-
dexter for United States senator.
Charles G. Schaefer, the demo-
cratic candidate for the legisla-
ture, made the same pledge. He
is in the Thirty-siXth legislative
district, the same district with
Mr.. Jensen.

lature that they may elect, the
corporations will nullify their
laws if the courts are in their
hands The most important thing
for the voter to study this year
is the judge question.
Shirty-Sith District
The Thirty-sixth legislative dis
trict has four candidates for rep
resentatfves-Herman Martin and
w. B. Chandler, democrats, and
r. w. Jameson and Governor
Teats, republicans.
Herman Martin has lived in Ia
coma for the last three years,
coming here from South Bend,
Pacific county, three years ago.
Mr. Martin is a lumberman by
profession he advocates a liabil-
fly law whereby laborers will be
compensated when injured with
out being forced to give all they
get to lawyers for fighting their
suits.
w. B. Chandler is a farmer
living near Spanaway. Mr.. Chan
der has lived in Pierce county
for the last seven years. He
came here from Illinois. He is
married man and takes great
interest in everything that per-
tains to life on the farm. Mr..
Chandler was candidate for
county commissioner two years
ago on the democratic ticket.
Mr.. Chandler is an advocate of
the non-partisan judiciary.
R. w. Jameson, the republic
can candidate, has been in Pierce
county politics for years. He
was connected with the prosecut-
ing attorneys office under FIRE.
mont Campbell from 1900 until
he went into the sheriff's office,
where he is now engaged as a
deputy.
Besides being a deputy in the
sheriff's office, Mr.. Jameson was
city councilman from the First
ward for several years.
Tcats' Candidacy
Governor Teats, the other re-
publican candidate for represen-
tative, was a populist in 1896
when that party was in existence
and was defeated for the senator
ship in what is now known as
the Twenty-ninth district in 1894
by Judge yesterday. Mr.. Teats
has never identified himself with
the republican party up to this
fall. nj a speech made Tuesday
evening Mr.. Teats came out for
the republican convention nomi-
nees for supreme judges and
against the non-partisan judges.

who favor the nomination for
judges by the direct primary to

WON EN- VISIT
BAKERIES

Miss Allstrum, pure food in
spector, this morning piloted a
delegation of a dozen of the
prominent women of Tacoma,
headed by Mrs. o. G.. Ellis,
through several of the bakeries,
restaurant kitchens and grocery
stores to show the conditions.
In some of the places the wo-
men were considerably shocked at
what they found.
The pure food inspector is de-
termined to compel food dispen-
saries to clean up, and she will
reinforce the law with the ocular
demonstration to the leaders
among the women of the unsatis-
factory conditions in certain
places.
The women are expected to cir
culate the facts pretty rapidly

best that / can" said Jean.
Through a narrow break in the
tops of the banskian pines a few
feathery flakes of snow were fall
ing, and Jean lifted his eyes to the

ing heavily" he affirmed. "If
they do not run across our trail
by that time, NJ 'seur, we shall be
safe"
He led the way through the for
est again, more slowly and with
greater caution than before, and
whenever he looked over his
shoulder he caught the dull CLEAN
of Howland's revolver as it point
ed at the hollow of his back.
THE devil, but you make me
uncomfortable" he protested
The hammer is up, too, M'seur!"
Yes, it is up" said Rowland
grimly. And it never leaves
your back, Croisset. If the gun
should go off accidentally it would
bore hole clean through you"
Half an hour later the French
man halted where the banskians
climbed the side of sloping
ridge.
''lf you could trust me | would
ask to go on ahead, whispered
Jean. This ridge shut in the
plain, NJ 'seur, and just over the
top of it is an old cabin which
has been abandoned for many
years. There is not one chance
in thousand of there being any
one there, though it is a good fox
ridge at this season. From it you
may see the light in Meleese's win
dow at night"
He did not stop to watch the
effect of his last words, but be-
gan picking his way up the ridge
with the dogs Juggling at his heels.
At the top he swung sharply be-
tween two huge masses of snow
covered rock, and in the lee of the
largest of these, almost entirely
sheltered from the drifts piled up
by easterly winds, they came sud
denly on a small log hut. About
1t there were no signs of life.
With unusual eagerness Jean
Jean scanned the surface of the
snow, and when he saw that
there was trail of neither man nor
beast in the unbroken crust "A look

Non-Partisan Supreme Judge Candidates Pledged to
Submit Themselves to People at End of Two
Comment on Men Running for Office

The Times articles on the SUI
preme court have brought the
non-partisan judges before the
people in a way which has made
almost every voter in Pierce
county study the question of
judges as they never did before.
The democrat or republican who
votes the straight ticket will not
be able to cast a vote for he nom
partisan supreme judge ticket.
There is just one way whereby
the voter can make his vote
count, and that is to place an X
opposite the candidate he wants
to have his suffrage.
No good citizen can vote a
straight ticket this fall. There
will be 20 candidates for which
he must vote. To place a cross
at the head of the republican tick
ct would cause a vote for the fol-
lowing candidates: A congress-
man, five supreme judges, one
senator, two members of the leg
islature, auditor, clerk, sheriff,
engineer, school superinten dent,
two county commissioners, three
Justices of the peace, three con-
stables, treasurer and wreckmas-
ter.
This would not carry the cleo
tion of the two superior judges,
as they will appear under both
the democratic and republican
tickets, and the voter would have
to vote for them separately.
Democrats Should Watch
The democrats by voting for
their ticket straight would not
vote for five supreme judges. aud
itor, treasurer, engineer and in
all of the different districts except
the Thirty-sixth for only one
member of the legislature. The
democrats endorsed the pon-par-
tisan supreme judges, but in Or
der to vote for them must mark
the candidates separate from the
regular ticket, the same as they
will the two superior judges.
The five supreme judges to be
elected this fall will be a majority
of the supreme court for the next
four years and one of a majority
for the next six years. Judge
Goss is nominated for a four-year
term to fill out the unexpired
time of Judge Root, who was
forced to resign from the supreme
bench for letting a Great North
ern railroad attorney write his
opinions in railroad SUITS.
The non-partisan judges are
pledged, if elected. to resign two
years from now if the primary
law is passed.
This supreme court will mean
much to the people of Washing
ton during the next six years. 1t

Stomach, and besides, what you
eat will not ferment and poison
your breath with nauseous odors.
All these symptoms resulting from
a sour. out-of-order stomach and
dyspepsia are generally relieved
five minutes after taking a little
.Diapepsin.
Go to your druggist and get a
5 0-cent case of Pape's Diapepsin
now, and you will always go to
the table with a hearty appetite,
and what you eat will taste good,
because your stomach and intes-
tines will be clean and fresh, and
you will know there are not going
to be any more bad nights and
miserable days for you. They
freshen you and make you feel
like life is worth living.
