VITAL WASHINGTON NEWS
TAVENNER "WRlTER AND THINKER" GIVES THE
FACTS AS THEY REALLY EXIST.

1t will be recalled that the organi-
zation to which Secretary Wilson was
alluding-the Romson board-re-
versed the findings of Dr. Wiley when
he ruled against the use of benzoate
of soda by embalmed beef manufac-
turers. The same board overruled
Wiley many times, finding excuses for
letting down the bars to the food
dopers on the merest pretense of rea-
sons
The weird rulings of the Romson
board caused friends of honest foods
to suspect that 1t had been organized
to thwart Dr. Wiley, and to con
serve the interest of the manufac.
turers instead of to conserve the pub
lie health and Secetary Wilson's frank
statement to the manufacturers mere.
ly confirms the justice of that sus.
picion.
Playing Favorites.
Allowing 81 out of S3 men under
criminal indictment in connection with
the wire trust to go free with the pay
ment of petty fines upon their with
drawal of mot guilty" pleas, is an il
lustration of the Wickersham policy
of trust breaking. This system would
seem to make the violation of the
antitrust laws merely business
proposition. The men running the
trusts may pile up millions by pay
ing no attention to the antitrust laws,
and then escape punishment by paying
few thousands in fines.
Much Already Accomplished.
Considered together, the four bills
already passed by the Democratic
house-reciprocity, free list, wool and
cotton constitute most comprehen-
sive beginning at revision of the
Payne-Aldrich law The revision aci
complished by the house means enor-
nous relief to the public, partly
through the elimination of jokers and
special-privilege provisions.

NJ. L. Gibbons, one of the principa, owners of Eyerybody's Drug store. ar rived home yesterday from a visit to Denver, Colorado. covering several weeks. On the way back he stopped at Gallup, N. NJ and other points. Says he had a good time and also transacted considerable business. The rumor that a street car had jumped on him and an automobile or two had walked oyer his person. appears to have been q mistake. He returns with all his limbs intact and is able to eat three meals a day as usual. In fact. it is the opin- ion of Mir. Gibbons that a good Chris tion and a good republican is safe in any country. Denver. MT Gibbons says, is a great town, though the mer- chants, as is the custom of merchants. say the bushes is dull Realizing that Colorado is not Arizona. nor is Den Yer Mesa. yet on the whole both the Centennial state and its chief city are pretty good places to spend vaca- tiOn. The weather there is too cold for comfort during the winter season, but was not uncomfortable during MT Gibbons stay.

TEMPE
LIGHTS ADD MUCH ID
 TOWNS APPEARANCE
More May Be Added From Time to
 Time As Finances Grow.

Tempe has had its first taste of street lights. and the taste was found very agreeable. The system was so far completed Tuesday that a test was given of the lights for few hours that evening. Everything proved very satisfactory and the night ap- pearance of the town has been in creased very materially IL is eX- pected that from this date on now the lights will be ou every night uu- ul midnight. when they will be auto maticaIy cut off Tempe is not on a moonlight schedule and the lights will shine regardless of the moon.
 The lights now placed extend from a block west of Mill avenue on Third street to Eighth street on Mill ave nue and east on Eighth street to the end of the street There are two lights at each street intersection on Mill avenue and ou Eighth street. There is only one possible fault that can be found with the system. and that is in the number of lights. and of course no one can be blamed for that There are as many now as the town feels it can at this time afford With the limited number at its disposal. it is natural that same fault will be found by different resi- dents who feel that they have been neglected. II must be realized. though, that the council placed the lights as best it could to serve the greatest number From time to time as the town is able to afford more lights. additional ones will be placed Every one should be thankful for as many as there are
