MUNICIPAL
ELECTIONS
A Very Quiet Campaign Ow-
ing to the Total Absence
of Issues.
WISE MEN, NOT MEASURES
Voters Are Put to Test of
Choosing Best Men on
Their Judgment.

Two weeks from tomorrow will be
the city elections. and so far all at
tempts to inject ginger" into the
campaign has fallen flat. And. it
could not well be otherwise, there be-
ing no real issue. The campaign is
entirely one of men, not measures.
With every candidate agreeing that
what the city needs is an economical
progressive administration, along Dusi
ness lines, it is impossible to create an
issue The voter must simply decide
for himself (or herself which candi-
date is most likely to fill the bill from
his Tor herr standpoint.
The supporters of Frank Beam for
mayor, have made strenuous efforts
to build up an issue against J. w.
Parks. but without success, the ma
teria being too fiimsy. Two points
We're sought to be made against Mr..
Parks: That he was a member OF
the present council and that certain
alleged Objectionable persons We're
supporting him. The first might have
had some weight had it been more spe-
cific. If some wrong official actions
or errors of official judgment were
cited truthfully. there would have
been something tangible to investi
gate at least. But. without such, his
experience on the council would seem
to be point in his favor, giving him
as it does familiarity with the bust
ness of the city that would require a
new man months to obtain.
1 The second objection is too alb.
surd for serious consideration. If a
candidate for public office was to be
held accountable for the character of
each of his supporters, it is not diff
cult to see where we should have to
seek for candidates. No man of sense
or standing would consent to run for
any position under such conditions,
and the bringing out of such an OBJ
jection-and it is brought out in all
seriousness-but reveals the inability
of Beam supporters to discover real
objection.
The ward contests for the city coun-
Gil are being conducted very quietly
by the candidates and their immediate
friends, and a noticeable feature in the
campaign is the absence of election
eering around the city hall. The or
der of Chief Archer to the police
seems to have been adopted in the
other departments, and whatever pref
erence the employees have there is a
notable absence of the activity that in
days of yore was wont to be in evi-
dence about the city hall few weeks
before the municipal elections. For
probably the first time in the history
of Aberdeen, the electors are about
to choose their officials without po-
lical bias from whom they believe the
best fitted. for the positions sought.

Bill to Create Grays Harbor
County is introduced in
Legislature.
THE TIME DEEMED WISE
Taxpayers Object to Paying
for Extravaganza at
MOntesanO.

A movement to divide Chehalis
county and create the county Of
Grays Harbor in the west end has
been quietly at work and in the last
few days has taken definite shape.
In the move are numbered many of
the prominent leaders in the oppOsi-
tiOn to county division four years
ago, who see that they were buncoed
in the matter of the expense of build
ing courthouse These men are
now enthusiastic for the division as
a business proposition, noting the
fact that the saving effected in
escaping payment for a courthouse
they did not want will enable the new
county to establish itself and erect
all the necessary buildings. The bill
for the division was introduced in the
House this morning by Representative
Straub of Hoquiam, and little doubt is
expressed as to its passage. The
lines of division are different from
those of four years ago. and run fur
ther west from Montesano. The bill
provides that Chehalis county officers
who were elected from this section
shall continue in the same offices of
the new county and names as COM
missioners, w. G. Hopkins, of Alb
erdeen, Geo. l.. Davis, of Hoquiam and
M. II. Williams of Cosmopolis. The
county seat of the new county is To-
Gated in Hoquiam until it shall be
removed according to law.
For the purpose of ascertaining the
sentiment of the citizens of Aberdeen
and Hoquiam, the following call has
been issued, signed by number of
prominent citizens of both cities
To the Citizens of Aberdeen and Ho-
quiam:
A mass meeting of the citizens of
Aberdeen and Hoquiam is hereby call
ed to meet in the Grand theater, Alb

Administration Measure Calls
Forth Fire of New York
Journalists.
THE FEELING IS BITTER
Attempt to Punish Progressive
Magazines May Cause
Extra Session.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1S.-Threats
of forcing an extra session of Con
gress if the administration adheres
to is plan of increasing the second
class postal rate were freely made
here today by friends of those maya
zines it is said the increase would
put cut of business. The magazine
publishers declared they had receiv-
ed promises enough from Democratic
and progressive Republican Senators
to secure successful flibuster
against the increase. They plan to
talk the bill to DEATH" and by hold
ing up the entire postoffice appro-
priation measure make an extra ses.
sion necessary.
Feeling Is Better.
Great bitterness has developed in
the contest. 1t is certain that as long
as Taft is President he will continue
to recommend the postal increase
and shrewd political observers say
that in this, far more than in his re-
ciprocity program, lies danger to the
Presidents ambition to remain in
the White House another four years
The publishers today laugh at the
administration ordering United
States District Attorney Wise of New
York to investigate with view to
prosecuting the magazines as a trust
They declare they have no fear of any
probe into their affairs and that nc
business in the country is of so com
pettive nature.
Hitchcock Caused Row.
The fight started on February s.
when Postmaster General Hitchcock
presented to the Senate Committee
on postoffices an amendment to the
present law increasing the rate from
cent pound for secOnd-class mail
matter to cents ON all advertising
matter in excess of 1000 pounds. He
declared that during the fiscal year
800, 100000 pounds of second-class mail
matter were carried by the govern
ment at loss of s62,00O.0O0, where
as the total postal deficit was $4,000,
900.
Publishers Are Vexed
Protests quickly followed the pro
posed change in rates. Publishers O.
leading magazines hurried to Wash
ington, charging that Hitchcock
move was a plot to bankrupt then
for political reasons. They asserted
that the destruction of their business
would follow and that the proposed
change would reduce not increase thu
postal revenues. They also charged
that Wall street is assisting the aG
ministration in its effort to make tn,
increase, with view of stopping thu
publication of alleged "muckrakilg'
articles directed against the Inter
ests" as we'll as against certain poll
cies of the administration.

Representative Straub Will
Introduce Three Bills of
Importance Today.
WOULD DIVIDE COUNTY
Joint Water System and Joint
Park for Aberdeen
and Hoquiam.

This is the last day upon which
bills may be introduced in the legis-
lature, and Representative Straub
will present three bills of large in
terest to Aberdeen and Hoquiam, not
least among them is a bill providing
for the division of Chehalis county,
and the creation of Grays Harbor
county. The Herald is not familiar
with the terms of the BILL but under
stands that in a general way it is SIM
liar to that which was enacted in 1907,
with the objections of the supreme
court carefully eliminated. 1t pro-
vides for the appointment of the board
of county commissioners by the gov
ernor, to serve until an election is
held, besides the usual provisions for
the establishment of new county,
tween Chehalis and Grays HarbOr
counties, etc.
Another bill by Mr.. Straub is to
provide for joint municipal water
system for Aberdeen and Hoquiam.
The bill is prepared in accordance
with the plan advanced several mon
tbs ago and approved by the two coun-
ellis of the two cities at that time.
Aside from making the project legal
from every standpoint, the bill has
no effect, there being no appropria'
ton or favor of any kind asked.
Engineer J. D. Moughmer, of Ho-
quiam, and C. W. Ewart of Aberdeen,
has been at work on the project for
several months, but no actual survey
work has been done There are two
projects now being considered for
bringing water to the cities, one from
the Wynooche river and the other
from the Humptulips river.
He will also introduce a bill ask
ing an appropriation of $4,000 from
the state to establish an experimental
farm in Chehalis county. That either

PRES. TAFT IS SATISFIED

WASHINGTON D. c., Feb 1S.-,
President Taft has information which
satisfies him that the Canadian reci-
prOcity agreement can be passed by
the senate if final vote can be reach
ed. Not only this, but his information
is that a very large majority of the
senate will vote in favor of the agree
ment if vote is taken
For this reason, the President is
bringing to bear every possible in
fluence to force this measure to final
consideration, even though he may
fail. for. if he cannot get a vote. he
hopes at least to be able to fix the
responsibility for the defeat of the
agreement upon a few senators who
are willing to engage in protracted
filibuster in order to prevent a vote
before March 4.
Senators who have talked with the
President recently are of the opinion
that he is in earnest about calling an

ATTACK VERY RADICAL
Extortionate Rates Paid Rail-
roads Responsible for
Postal Deficit.

An extremely radical attack is made
upon the postal deficit by James w.
Babcock in the Twentieth Century
Magazine. and if his assertions are
warranted there is every reason for
a searching investigation into the
postal department of this country.
The animus of the charges made by
Mr. Babcock is that the postal deficit
is almost wholly due to extortionate
rates charged by the railways, back
ed by the express companies. What
is not due to these causes is laid at
the door of inefficiency in the postal
department. and indeed the implica'
ton is made that inefficiency is sup
plemented by collusion.
Mr.. Babcock begins by asserting
that the United States pays more mon
ey to railroads every year for mail
transportation than all others coIn
tries in the world combined. while at
the same time those very railroads

STUMP LAND
RECLAMATION
In Western Washington Now
in Sight. An Important
Step Taken.

PORTLAND, Ore, Feb. 19.-(Spe-
cial. THE transformation of wild
erness into a garden is planned for
Western Washington and Oregon no
less wonderful than the miracle
wrought by irrigation east of the Cas-
cades. This is the solution of the log
ged-off land problem that now seems
in sight To the Southwest Wash
ington Development Association must
be given the credit for carrying this
movement forward until it has reach
ed a point where successful clearing
of large areas of stump lands at low
cost is successfully accomplished.
At the convention of the associa-
ton, held the past week at Vancouver
the method of operation was shown
and plans for the future discussed.
Prof. Sparks of the State College at
Pullman showed by actual demonstra
tion how land may be cleared of
stumps and roots with minimum of
money and effort and at the conven-
ton sessions prominent delegates out
lined a plan for pooling large stump
areas and making fertile farms out of
now almost worthless land.
The organization of big company
to handle the land, clearing 1t and
nlacing it on the market in small
tracts for the farmer, was forecast
