The eight hour law for women
goes into effect thruout the state to-
day. In some parts Of the state
this will mean the reduction of the
pay of many employees, in others
it will mean that there will be an
increase i'll the selling price of vari-
Gus articles. In Kennewick, with
but few exceptions. every woman
who is employed in the city will be
benefited by the shorter hour law
clerks, bookkeepers, stenographers,
girls who work in print-shops, laun-
dries, etc. The employers, in nearly
every instance, will grant the
shorter hours it is believed.

WANT ALASKAN COAL

The people of the Northwest seem
to have at slast become thoroughly
aroused over the Alaskan coal stu
alton and they are going to fight
until they get some results from the
Government officials at Washington.
Mass meetings are being held and
strong resolutions adopted demand
ing that the Government take steps
to see that the coal of Alaska is
made available for use. 1t is GER
tainly a bad condition of affairs
when coal has to be shipped to
Alaska from the outside. There is
not town or hamlet on the Pacific
Coast that is not interested in OPEN
ing up Alaska for it means greater
prosperity for all Of them.

STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE

June, dear June, month Of brides
and roses and above all. strawberry
shortcake!
Let poets rhapsodize as they will
of the perfect days of June and its
glories Of flowers and blue skies.
Let the lovers of humanity and the
sweet girl graduate rave over the
June bride. The soul that knows
the right values of mundane joys
puts the June shortcake above
brides and flowers.
When rightly made, with full
Justice to each Of it's delicious COM
ponents the strawberry shortcake is
the food of the gods. 1t was known
to the ancients as ambrosia, but
this is only Greek for shortcake.
Beside the strawberry shortcake OF
the Inland Empire even the luscious
BURBERRY cake of Maine hides its
diminished head. Take the Kenne-
wick or Hood river berry and the
-four from the Washington wheat
and the sugar from the sunsoaked
cane of Louisiana and genuine butter
from the Jersey dairy; and set some
white-armed, light fngured Dull
cihea or Hebe of the kitchen at these
ambrosial ingredients; and have
some perfect oven puff the COM
pound up as light as air and as hot
as fire. Then the result, sweet, but
not so sweet as to STAY the flavor of
the berries, and dripping with rosy
juices from a mountain of snowy
pastry, and just warm enough to
tickle the palate, is dream Of de-
light.
Doubtless God might have made
a better berry than the strawberry
but doubtless God never did," and
while strawberries grow and short
cakes are made anchorites and cpl
cures alike will succumb to their
facinations and know that life in
June is we'll worth while.-Spokes-
man-Review.

GET AFTER THE FLY

With the beginningof the warmer
days the flies are becoming very
numerous in great ar
mics. It is time right now to fight
the fly.
And the best way to fight him is
to attack him in his feeding and
breeding places. If there isn't
anything unclean about the place,
no heaps of refuse, no exposed tins
with traces of their contentsin them,
there will be no flies about the
place. Heaps of unclean refuse
should be burnt and tins should be
buried before the warmer days set
in. Citizens who fail to make these
precautions will pay for it sooner or
later. Flies scatter disease; and if
they didn't scatter disease they are
unclean annoyances anyway.
The city health department has
put the people on guard against the
fly, and the people certainly ought
to aid the department in its efforts
to minimize the fly evil.
If citizens will burn all their filth
that is consumable, and bury all
that isn't, keep the back yard clean
and in other ways carry out the in
structions of the health department
there will rot be many flies in Ken
newick this summer; indeed, Ken
newick will almost become fyless

"Resolved, That a committee of three be an
pointed to protest to the Postmaster General
against the transmission through the mails of
The Jeffersonian and Watson's Magazine, pub
hshed by Thomas E. Watson, certain statements
IN which are prejudicial to the welfare of the
community
This resolution unanimously adopted last
nlgnt at meeting of the Holy Name Society,
held in st Martins Hail. the committee appointed
consisting of c. A. Camalear NJ B. Connolly
John A. Fitzgerald, and Francis Ryan.
during the meeting, auxiliary club was
formed, and named the St. Martins Social Club
Arrangements were made for dance and euchre
to be given April 26 and committee, consisting
of T. P. Rooney, j. C. Simpson, George Melting
and Frank P. Cunning was appointed.
Observe that after having unanimously ap-
pointed committee of three to put The
JEFFs out of business the Holy Rollers APP
pointed another, to arrange q dance and
euchTe party. To play cards and to have
ball, are curious couple of occupations for
Holy Rollers to deliberately plan
Why is it that the American slaves of the
Italian Papa are so enraged against THE
JEFFERsONIAN and WATsoN's MAGAZINE? It is
because they dread the effect of the terrible
truth.
My exposure of their idolatry, paganism
and organized lmposture is along a different
line from that which has ever been followed
by previous assailants of popery.
The priests are dumbfounded, and know
not how to answer. Hence their desperate
efforts to have me silenced.
But they can't do it. Even though The
JEFFs should be thrown out of the mails, [
would not only publish the same attacks in
book form; but would tour the country, ex-
posing the crafty, encroaching and un-Ameri-
can hierarchy from the lecture platform.
The italian pappycrats have made some
fearful blunders, lately. They are losing out,
In all countries but this. They would soon be
on the run, here if our politicians and editors
were not such abiect towards. But can say
this to the Holy Hypocrites of Washington,

You would be we'll advised if you adopted
a more tolerant tone, and did not so fully ex-
pose your fear Of the truth, as published by

night over him."
No. Croesus gave no thought to such things
Far and wide he sought gold, silver, precl-
Gus stones Day after day, year after year,
Croesus heaped up gold, silver; precious stones.
By fair means or foul, by straight ways and
crooked, by lawful methods and lawless,
CrCesls added talent to talent until his treas
ury almost choked with gold.
And it came to pass that the King of Lydia
prided himself upon his wealth more than
upon any other thing that he possessed.
Wasn't he silly old thing? He did not
claim that he was the wisest man, nor the
strongest man, nor the bravest man, nor the
noblest man, nor the most Industrious man,
nor the most useful man. He did not pride
himself upon having the best mind, body,
character, or purpose. He did not boast of
anything that he could think, speak, write, or
do that was better than what other men could
think, speak, write, or do.
He simply thought he was the happiest
greatest man on earth because he had scraped
together larger quantity of certain sort of
metal than any living mani:
Did you ever hear of such silly old king
as this?
So it came to pass that whenever a traveller
of distinction reached Sardis, the capital of
Lydia, the king would take the traveller to
see his treasure,-his gold, silver, and precl-
GUS stones.
When the traveller came into the treasure
house, and looked upon those vast heaps of
riches, greater by far than he had ever
dreamed of BEFORE his hands would, of course,
fly up and his eyes open out, and his hat fall
off, and his mouth spring open, and he would
make ordinations OF wonder, admiration,
and reverence which would cause the silly
king to chuckle and chortIe and puff himself
up with unspeakable pleasure and pride.
Then the traveller went upon his way into
other lands, he would naturally tell the tale
to all whom he met-the wondrous tale of
Croesus and his gold
Thus the fame of Croesus waxed exceed
ingly great in all the countries round about.
Of course, Croesus had counted upon that
result when he showed the traveller his money.
He wanted to be talked about as the richest
man in the world-as the man who was hap
pier better, and greater than any other man
because he had more money than any other
man.
What did Crcesus intend to do with all this
money?
He did not know. He had never given a
thought to that. His purpose was to keep on
getting it-more, more, MORE, and ever
MORE until he had the greatest fortune in
the world.
Then what?
Go on getting more and more and MORE!
There never was definite plan or purpose
in his head beyond the getting of the money
What to do aoith 1t, after he had got it, was
mere irrelevant, non germane question, not
to be considered or tolerated for a moment.
Drive on and on and ON: get more and
more and MORE:-that was the purpose of
Crpsus.
Silliest old thing that ever lived, wasn't he,

But there Is a limit. Man is an animal
after ALL and when driven too far, he breaks
through the shell which civilization has
nodded round him, and he becomes again
the fierce brute he used to be when he lived
In the woods and ate raw meat.
At Athens, the creditor class had almost
got to the dead line.
Scion with one sweep of his pen relieved
the tension, and saved his country.
How?
By cheapenang money.
The historian says, he deprecated the cur
re1cy.
What he did was this: he found that the
existing supply of money had been gathered
into the hands of the few Therefore, money
was hard to get. Therefore, the demand for
money constantly increased. Therefore, the
p17ce OF money constantly rose. Therefore,
debts were harder to pay OH maturity than
they had been when contracted. The poor
debtor had to buy money to pay his debts
with; and the amount of labor or of property
required to buy enough money to pay the
debts grew greater and greater all the time.
This was I'M ust. Scion epp0nded the cur
re71cy: that is, he increased the supply of
money. In the language of today, money
sharks had "cornered" the market, and Scion
smashed the Corner"
He also lowered the rate of interest for
debt on loans, and abolished imprisonment
The result of these reforms was most happy
Debtors found that more money meant
cheaper money, and were thus. saved from
ruin; whereas the creditors lost nothing but
an unfair advantage which they had been
harshly using to Cypress their fellow-man
When true Democrat of this day offers a
similar remedy for similar abuses, he is
howled at from ocean to ocean, and called
crank. a fanatic dema OOOue
Scion, the ruler and law-giver of Athens,
was just such a crank, fanatic, and demagogue
twenty-five hundred gears ago!
And yet Professor Wildman, who teaches
our boys political economy in the University
of Missouri, has written a book to show that
"E1pansi0n Movements" are modern things.
confined chiefly to ignorant classes who are in
debt, and that these expansion movements are
"S0caal naal0dles!" which must be treated like
epidemics.
In those days there lived a certain king
whose name became synonym for riches, Just
as the name of Scion became a synonym for
wisdom.
This king was Croesus, and he ruled over a
country called Lydia, in Asia Minor an ex-
ceedingly rich and fertile country.
In the eyes of Crcesus there was nothing so
Oeatlt11u! as gOld, silver, ana precious stones.
In his philosophy the purpose of living was
to get rich. Money, according to his belief,
was the all in all: whoever had the greatest
amount of money was necessarily the happiest
man, the greatest man, the strongest man, the
man to be most loved feared, courted, and adj
mired.
So the Lydian king bethought him not of
just laws, honest administration, the welfare
of his subjects, and of future generations! He
neither was diligent in the seeking after
