This is being done in some plac-
es and should be done everywhere.
For bear in mind that your boys
are entitled to games and sports,
to amusement and when you at
tempt to rob them Of it YOU sim
ply drive them to amusements
which do not develop health or
manly character, or the spirit of
things very much worse. We con-
fess we dislike very much to see
droves Of boys and girls going to
town on Saturday simply for a.
musement, when better anus
ments, or at least just as good
with more character building, can
be had in every township in the
country, provided they only
thought SO and proceeded to or
ganize themselves, thus develop
ing a rural civilization.
In the winter this should be
followed by debating societies
spelling schools, corn judging
contests. There is no telling
what would follow if start was
made and the boys and girls il

other day simply for the purpose

DECLARATION OF PRINCIPLES
BY OTTO A. CASE
Formally Announcing His Candidacy
For the Republican Nomination
and Election To the Office of Gov
ernOr of the State of Washing
ton

1t is surely the worthy ambition of
Governship of this Comm onwealth.
Therefore, being directly respon-
sible to the people, he who seeks
this office must speak directly to the
people, that they may know the prin-
ciples which actuate his life, that
they may analyze the motives influ-
encing such life, and thus judge of
his character and capacity.
/ have an abiding faith in the in
itiatiye, referendum and recall. The
dominant note in our political life
today is direction-not indirection.
| Political leverage direct from and to
the people, and hence | regret that
our state official life did not submit
constitutional amendment to give
our people the right to recall not
alone legislative, executive and adj
ministratiye officers, but judges as
well. Judges are not separate and
apart from the people. Extend the
term of service of judges and pro-
vide the recall.
In the final analysis the man on the
land is the natural conservator OF
the resources of the state.
And hence three of the greatest
things that the state government
may do for the man on the land are
(a) To give him power to use The
! land.
OBJ Assist him by wise co-opera
ton in such use.
(c) To stimulate and encourage
him to stay on the land.

(a) Better laws for protection of
life and property against forest fires
and wiser regulation of land and wat
er belonging to the state.

of Child Culture, composed of men
and women of widest culture and ca
pacity, to cooperate with the great
social service movements of this
commonwealth, such as the Juvinile
Courts, Associated Charities, the
different Homes for Children, the
Fraternal Societies and Religious in
stitutions whose duty and privilege

1t shall be TO investigate child well
fare and cooperate in obtaining a
standard of eXcellency in all legis-
lation relating to the greatest CON
servation OF all the "Couserva-
zion of Children"
Good Roads
All the people of this state believe
that we should have good roads. We
are suffering now, not for wiser road
laws, but for wiser adoption of such
laws to all people in all sections OF
the state.
For ten years we have been a "di-
yided household" ON this all-im por-
tant question.
Therefore, l submit to the people
OF this state certain suggestions which
whether entirely right or wrong, may
help to produce the middle ground;
may advance the movement, thus
| tending to eliminate legislative strife
in road legislation.
(a) A county highway, like a
| railroad, should be CONSTRUCTED and
| maintained under competent engi-
neers, with general supervision by
county comm ssioner5, OF policy, pla (
of road, giving, approving and lay
ing contracts
b. The state, under competent
state highway engineer. should con-
struct and maintain trunk lines. III S
feeding centers of population,
(c) The county. under competent
| county engineers, should construct
and maintain laterals, thus feeding
country centers of population.
(d) These two methods of con-
struction, under competent plans and
specifications, should each be submit
| ted to the respective county and state
engineer under unity and harmony
of action with large slices OF COM
mon sense applied to each.
| (e) The law to be amended, re-
| quiring the examination of county en-
gineers in highway construction and
maintenance, and in case an engineer
| fails to pass, give the right to the
county commissioners to engage
either the state engineer or an engi-
neer who has passed the examination
to proceed with the work in the coun-
ty.
ca A bonding system such AS OBJ
tains in Eastern states. thus per
hitting speedier construction of the
roads. whereby not only the present
but future generations may bear this
burden of road construction.
(g) When state or county engi
neers have thus united upon plans
and specifications, the construction
of trunk lines and laterals should
proceed together.

RURAL ADJUSTMENTS

Whether in the city or the cOun-
try, the young people-and to a
lesser extent the older people
require diversion or amusement,
"All work and no play makes
Jack a dull boy" There is no
use talking about keeping our
young folks on the farm unless
life on the farm seems worth liv-
ing, is in fact, made desirable
and satisfactory.
At present our young people go
to town on Saturdays, sometimes
oftener, for their amusements.
This takes them away from their
home life, interests them in life
that has nothing to do with their
home and, unfortunately, often
introduces them to society
which they had better not know
and sometimes developeS habits
which will hamper them through
life. Young people will have their
amusements, however; must have
their diversions and their play
will have it in town if they don T
have it in the country.
We have told our old farmers
for years that they will get more
work out of the boy in summer,
or any time, with five and one
half days work and onehalt
days play, than they will in six
days of work. Many boy has
been saved to the farm in sec
tons where farm society is better
organized than is usual, by being
given a half holiday each week
to play ball not in town, but IL
country clubs.
We would like to see a baseball
club and football in each township
This will be healthy sport, bring
ing out qualities in the boy which
cannot be developed on the farm
accustoming him to team work, t.
organization, and thus preparing
the way for organization in othe
lines when he gets to be man.
Then there could be whole
some spirit of rivalry developer
between townships, as there is be

State Efficiency


State Government by political in
fluence must go. State Government

The whole tendency in the admin
istration of private business is to
develop;
(a) A standard of cost in oper-
alton.
(b) standard of efficiency in
administration.
(c) A standard of merit in selec-
ton of employees.
What is thus done in private life
should be done in public life.
Therefore, if elected Governor,
shall recommend to the legislature
such an amendment to the law as
will
(a) Apply civil service rules to
all appointments, except heads of in
stitutions and boards created by law
"a method so successfully applied
in municipal and federal government.

spection and Supervision of public
offices more useful to the people and
