Editor Times:-
Tacomans who are at all in
terested in their city's welfare
are alarmed at the very idea of
Lamborn getting into the city hall
again. At first, looking upon his
candidacy as joke, they later
realized that since he was firmly
retired to privacy by a Disguised
community, the city has almost
doubled in population, and the
new voters do not know his poll
teal history.
All city business should be
considered In the city office.
Lamborn, instead of having full
committee meetings to discuss
these franchises, would go over
to Seattle to Furth, or to Dim
mock-as some congressman went
to the trusts for tariff instruc-
lions.
1t is that kind of officials who
rob a city to swell the dividends
of foreign corporation-the kind
Roosevelt told us to recall. Then
why make a laughing-stock of
Tacoma by electing them7 Lam
born's acts applied to contracts
for power and granting fran
chises.
Men on both sides of the re-
cent campaign used the name of
L. d Campbell to conjure with
men who had opposed him in
his lifetime. Both Fawcett and
Seymour men asked for votes in
his name, both men were of those
who made it hard for Mayor
Campbell to do his duty. I will
say that I voted for Mr.. Seymour
and l say 1t to make 1t clear that
in opposing Lamborn and Roys,
I am not following any clique or
paper, but am opposing two OF
the bitterest enemies of Mr.. Camp
bell and the city had to contend
with.
II they are making that great
man the standard by which we
are to choose officials, so be 1t:
they are tried and found wanting
With some of the Times poll
cies I do not agree-I say this to
make more emphatic the fact that
I do agree with them in their
support of Freeland and Petit

titude of a spineless boy who did
not know anything-and they

TODAY IN HISTORY

May IL, 1916, was the day OF
the fight In 1.-THE Bloody Angle"
at Spotsylvania court house, Vir-
ginia. The Union army for days
had been charging the Confeder-
ate intrenchments with more or
less Indifferent results, but on
the 18th the second army corps
under command of Gen. Hancock
swung hard on the Confederate
right center and captured 1000
men and 20 cannon. Five times
the Confederates on either side
attempted to dislodge Hancock
but unsuccessfully. So terrific was
the rifle fire in this all-day bat
tie that the scene has been Inn
mortalized in military history as
"the bloody angle"

Getting the Best of the Bool Wee
vii.
From Jackson, Miss, 10 E.cksburg
We passed through what, in ny opin-
ion and that Of a good many who
know them, are the richest soils in
the world. These are the bluff soils.
and an older alluvial than that of
our present valleys. When fresh
they will easily make a bale Of cot
ton per acre, and with any intelli,
gent handling, this productivity can
be maintained indefinitely. But cot
ton is not all they viii produce
corn is at home upon them-and if
one does not care TO raise a culti-
waited crop, all ne has to do is 10 turn
them out and nature will immediate
ly clothe them with grass Of all kinds
Bermuda, Japan clover and the car
pet grass, all grow in profusion.
That stamps this as naturally a live
stock country. That the advent of
the boil weevil has convinced a good
many people Of this fact, was amply
attested to by the lerge number of
cattle to be seen along the route
Many Of these herds showed plainly
that they had large sprinkling of
good blood in them, and il does not
take prophet to predict that in a
few years the scare over the boil
weevil will be thing of the past in
this section saw more grass in
this forty-mile ride than / have seen
III weeks Of travel in South Carolina,
and it was grass that spelled money
for its owner. But the boil weevil
is not driving these people out Of
cotton, as what cotton l saw was bet
ter than usual.
The effect of the boil weevil in
changing the system of agriculture
was probably more apparent in Louis
lana than in any other State. From
Nicksburg to Monroe is a stretch of
soils that for fertility are not sur
passed anywhere in the world. These
lands have produced cotton continu-
ously for a century, and their fer
tllity is not in the least impaired by
the strain. Five years ago when it
was suggested to the owners of these
lands that the weevil would make
them plant, at least in part, some
other crops, they secuted the idea.
But to-day, where there used to be
one unbroken stretch of we'll culti-
waited cotton fields, scarcely one-third
OF the lands are in this plant Corn
was in abundance and we passed
through large fields of rice, some of
it already being harvested
What cotton was seen, was scarce
ly up to what 1 am accustomed to in
this section. There seemed to be a
pretty good bottom crop, but very
little above. The crops were quite
grassy, so I judge that there had
been too much rain There were
enough fallen squares in the middles
to make one sick at heart.
Texas, as usual, has been dry-so
dry that it is claimed her cotton crop
is badly damaged-one party claim
ing that it will take 10 acres to make
bale. Dry weather is rather
chronic complaint of the State, how
ever, so l would not advise very heavy
gambling on the shortening of the
crops OF this State on that account
