The Seattle Republican. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1???-1915, 1911-03-24

Our readers will recall the fact
that the late board of county
commissioners instead Of strictly
attending to the business of the
country devoted their time wag-
ing warfare against some county
officer, when they were not quar-
reling among themselves. The
employment of special counsel
by the former board cost the tax
payers five hundred dollars fora
which the people received noth-|
ing and the intended injury to
the county officer ATTACK on prov
ed a fasco. One of the men,
bers of the old board sought re-
election, on his recent course,
and was promptly turned down.
The ex-official made an effort to
get into the new council, but
with even less success.
It must be apparent that the
people do not elect officers to
scrap with other officials. or to
quarrel among themselves and
the two late elections have dem
odstrated that such is the feeling
and temper of the voters
This warning is apparently UNI
needed by the present board of
commissioners, and after being
in office for two short months,
we find the present board in tur-
MOL that can OILY result in det-
riment to the taxpayers.
There may be several reasons
why the present board insists in
"scrapping" instead of attend
ing to the county business; and
a diagnosis of the case will no
donbt develop the face that one
is-the job that the members of
the board have undertaken is
too large for the men. What is
needed on the present board of
county commissioners is at least
two good capable business men.
who will care more for the well
fare of the county affairs than
they do of providing positions
for their special friends and rel
atives.
The electors have probably
made mistake and we are pleas
ed to say that the recall law that
was passed by the late legisla-
ture, will soon go into effect. and
it would be worth many thous-
ands Of dollars to King county
to make use of that powerful
weapon and place on the board
three high grade business men.
The county has such men in
!; abundance, and with the improv-
ed moral sentiment in our COM
munity, men who show that they
are too small for the job can east
ly be replaced by men of better
business ability.

One OF the very popular Judges
of King county, threatens to re-
sign from the bench on account
of the inadequacy of the salary,
which is $4,000 annually. The
times and the customs how
changed from the times and GUS
toms of Judge Gays father,
when $4,000 annually would have
meant fortune to any one so
fortunate as to receive such. 1t
is a lamentable fact that the su-
perior court judges and likewise
the most of the officials of King
county are undergrad in compar-
ison to what men of like capa-
bilities in private practice and
business are paid for their serv-
ices, and the recent Legislature
deserves the everlasting censure
of the tax payers for not raising
the salaries of the judges and
officials of counties of the first
class so that men of ability and
experience might find the salary
of sufficient, inducement for them
to accept and hold the positions.
Not only Judge Gay, but other
members of the King county SUI
perior court, who, it is alleged,
will soon resign and therefore, al
most demoralze the present status
of the bench and all because mem
bers of the bar, who practice be-
fore them, are able to sport auto
mobiles, when out with their
families on Sundays and even
ings, while the JUDGES have to
walk, or at best take a street car
ride.
Somebody is setting too fast
pace for the others to travel by,
and sooner or later, either the
Judges or the practitioners are
going to run so very fast,
instead of turning with the
curves of the track they will go
off on a tangent and perhaps
plunge headlong down, down
some dangerous precipice.
The salary should not always
be the controlling spirit of occu-
pving a seat on the bench, but
on the other hand the judge
should be paid a salary common
surate with the custom OF the
times and the communities.
There is no doubt but that a
Judge in Seattle should be paid
more than judge in a country
town, and of course judge.
at a time when all the necessi-
ties of life are five and ten times
higher than when Judge Gay was
a child, should naturally get a
great deal more salary than did
judges fifty years ago. But the
question arises, What's the end
of all this? Does it mean that
this country is rapidly drifting
into a state of landlordism anc
their hired attorneys?
1t is a fact that the attorneys,
who have won any degree of dis
tinction at the bar, would under
no circumstances accept a judge
ship except as GROWING climax
to their active and successful ca
reers. or for the sake Of the eX
perience on the bench for cou
pie of terms with a view c.
commanding larger fees from
rich clients. In other words thu

hope to lay the foundation t.

SQUIRREL MEDICINE.

Walter w. Hatch, who is farm
ing DR.. III. j. Smith s ranch south
west of town was in the city
this week and gave the DIR. some
information regarding a squirrel
remedy they have been expert
menting with this spring. The
DR.. noticed the recipe, which is
given below, in the Spokesman
Review recently which also gave
the experience of farmer near
Pullman who had successfully EN-
ployed it. Mr.. Hatch spent about
three-quarters of an hour putting
out the medicine, and a little lat
er picked up 101 of the little ami
mails. At one hole he found an
old squirrel and twelve little
ones-all dead. To derive the
best results from the poison it
must be placed near the holes be-
fore the squirrels come out for
their early morning repast. The
recipe is as follows:
One ounce strychnine; ] cup
of sugar; one-haf cup salt; / gal
lon flour. Mix ingredients dry
Thoroughly. Add enough water
to make a thick batter. Make a
depression with the heel in front
of squirrel hole and place a tea
spoonful of the batter therein
By placing the poison out early
in the morning the squirrel is at
tracted to it before obtaining
other food. If other farmers will
try this cure DIR. Smith is conf
dent that it will do much to rid
the country of the pest.

1t would seem the more Gov.

If Mr.. Hawley was not governor

his "system" upon the taxes of

absurd-in other words, tommy
rot-but as he is occupying that

is better known. 1t is certainly
a cheap experiment, and is to be
applied with a tree sprayer, the
same as the salt solution. Dis
solve from one and half to two
pounds of copperas to gallon
OF water, and use while fresh
with sprayer; after standing
three or four hours the solution
begins to deteriorate and loses
its effectiveness. While the So
luton is not poisonous to handle,
it will stain stone, iron or cloth
ing, hence due care should be, ex-
ercised in making the applica-
ton. Water the lawn well sew
eral hours before spraying, to
give it plenty of moisture, and
then do not sprinkle it for a day
or two after spraying with the
copperas. Spraying should be
done when there is little wind
and when slightly cloudy, if pos
sible. When properly applied
the blue grass and clover will moi
be injured by the solution. Strain
the solution through fine sieve
or cloth into the sprayer to pre-
vent clogging. With all these
remedies, Grangeville should bt
able with little diligence to re
deem it's splendid lawns from the
present inroads of this pest.
