BURNING The HAMMER.

When Seattle burned the Knockers
hammer. newspapers In nearly every
city OF the country commented on the
event In a tone that suggested they
would like to have Misunderstanding
nearer home. One editorial that has
been very widely copied and may be
accepted as having struck a proper
chord among the live wires, was pub
lished by the Nashville Tennesseean,
1t makes good reading In Honolulu
We quote:
Seattle has burned the ham
mer. and the knocker who raises
his voice again In the Puget
Sound metropolis will be given
the hook with neatness and dis
patch. 81; s0 q
The ceremony attending the
placing Of the great Seattle ham
ner OF IT'S funeral pyre was at
tended by 10000 shouting men and
women. II was farewell to the
soreheaded and the disgruntled, a
tip to the bilious that silence
should be their role in the future.
Nothing handicaps city as
badly rs a lot of croakers, and
Seattle did well to symbolic the
end Of pessimism. The man who
hasn't a good word to say for his
own city ought to be gagged and
tied where he cannot get into
general circulation.
The fault is invariably with the
sorehead and not with the city.
Complaint is generally based on
personal failure. Nobody likes to
hear kicker. He doesn't even
enjoy hearing himself and the cor
ners Of his mouth might turn nm
and the smile might return to his
face II he would only stop grumb-
ling for while.
ANY man who doesn't feel that
ne can say a good word for his
home city should at least spare
the feelings OF his friends and as
sociates by holding his tongue.
Every city has its crop of ne'er-
do-wells. Some cities are worse
cursed than others with these
weeds. Busy. industrious, thrifty
men and women are too busy
making career for themselves
and helping their fellowmen to
stand Idly by and carp at their
neighbors and their city.

Vile had some croakara But
