Hugh c. Todd, the young repre-
sentative from Whitman county,
is norator. Why? He's a dem
ocrat. In these days of progressive
thought, however, they forget par
ty lines somewhat. Speaker Tay-
Tor, for instance, overlooked
Todd's democracy, and put him on
some of the most important COM
mittees in the house, namely, on
rules, banks and banking, judici-
airy, and privileges and elections.
Todd was the baby of the house
two years ago, when he was only
"a. They liked his record so
much, down in Whitman county,
that they sent another democrat
of about his own age, Chas. r.
Larue, to be his colleague this
time.

Chairman F. A Magill, and H G..
Rowland were speaking and hull
ing thunderbolts at the city COM
missioners for protecting evil In
the city the audience was en-
thusiastic and full of spicy COM
ment.
When Judge Harmon laid down
the charter provision that if Roys
IS guilty of conserving vice and
lawlessness and that the other
commissioners are not innocent,
for the charter gives them the
right to tLsow him out of office
with their four votes, a fellow
in the rear of the hall shouted
"can the bunch"
And this thought grew as the
meeting progressed.
The charter was plain that the
other commissioners might have
bounced Roys. They stood in
active and the people were dis
gusted. When DIR. Lane finish
ed speaking Charles Drury got the
flool and introduced resolutions
reviewing the case and declaring
as above for the recall of the
whole commission.
This brought the first clash of
the evening.
Roys Is Bumped
Almost half of the crowd show
ed disposition to fasten the re-
sponsibility for failure to enforce
the laws on Roys alone. Attorney
Harry M. Johnston said it was the
purpose o fthe charter to fix re-
sponsibility and it had fixed 1t on
Roys for failure to enforce the
law. He wanted to take the COM
misioners one at a time. Attor-
ney Hogue took the same view
and moved that the recall be con-
fined to Roys. This was voted
down.
Peter Dabroe, foreman of water
mains, up in the gallery, seeing
the danger to Nick Lawson, got
the floor and denounced the at
tempt to recall them all. He
said 1t was up to Roys, not the
mayor.
Drusfy said Fawcett, Freeland
and the whole caboodle" had
failed to act and he was for start
ing recall on them all. II citi-
zens did not want to recall Free
land or the mayor or any one they
not sign the petitions for the ones
they wanted retained.
Wants Fawcett's Seal?
Orville Billings, a member OF
the Rotary club, and an opponent
of the mayors municipal dock
scheme, wants to get the mayor.
He said the meeting was going to
kill the recall. "If you let it go
out from here that this bunch of
long-faced hypocrites wants a re-
call the people will vote it down."
he said. He urged going after the
mayor alone.
Judge Mattison arose to make
a plea for Roys. He wanted to go
to him and tell him to enforce
the la wand he thought he would
do 1t.
