DILLING FOR MAYOR

After much casting about the Welfare Leagues ex-
ecutive committee has selected George W. Dllng as
the mayoraty candidate to oppose Mayor Gill IN the
recall election and Mr. Dilling has accepted the CALL

wind campaign. Aside from the work of the execu-
tive committee he will have compaign manager,
but will do the work himself
George W. Diing has been resident of Seattle
for number of years and he has always taken ac-
tive interest in the political game but for the most
part along Independent lines He elected to the
LEGISLATURE some years ago from the forty fifth repre-
sentative district as Republican, but IN the leglsa-
ture he was more an independent than stand patter
He has always opposed the corporation politician and
in the Preston campaign almost worked his head OH
trying to elect him United States senator His efforts
were without avail as Preston defeated and ever
since he has been independent IN politics
than before. He bitterly opposed the reelection OF
Levi Ankeny and supported Wesley L. Jones with
vengeance In the senatorial campaign last fall he
was for John L. Wilson until he was thoroughly con-
vnced that the campaign of Thomas Burke made Will
snn an impossibity, when he swung to Poindexter
and supported him as enthusiastically he did Jones
two years ago.
It has been frequently limited in political circles
that Mr. DiIing would seek the senatorial toga him.

that if he is elected mayor and gets through with the
lob with credit to himself and satisfaction to the vot
ers there is no doubt but that he will seek to be King
county's senatorial candidate to succeed Wesley L.
Jones.
Dilng is clean cut busnes and has made
fortune for himself within the past fifteen years eal-
in Seattle real estate He has the confidence of the
business men, and in view of the fact that he declares
he will clean up the city and will have the laws en-
forced he will give Mayor Gill such fight as he never
before engaged in.

MADE A CLEAN SWEEP

While itmay have been responsible for number OF
valuable losing positions that they had honestly and
honoraby filed yet the clean sweep made by the King
county commissioners was not half bad, and in max
ing this assertion it is not done to cast reflection on
the retired county commissioners, but because it is al
most Impossible to keep out parasites where the same
set of have held office long has that faction
of the Republican party of King county that was
curned out of office by the results of the last primary
and general election. While we are ardent admirers
of the civil service regulations, yet know that the
employees of county such as are given employment
in the counties of the state of Washington not under
civil service regulations and under strict civil SER
vice rules work poor enough at best yet they do even
worse where they have no we'll defined rules and laws
to liveup to- The change therefore in opinion was
a mertorous and lets hope the present admins
tration will not be leng lived enough to create many
parasites as the one just retired from office.

A fall in commodity prices was noted by Brad
