FIERCE LOG ROLLING
AT DENIS CONVENTION

Wilson and only SO for Clark.
Pierce county also has a fight
on. Her SO votes are pledged as
a unit and how the vote goes de-
pends ON which side gets the most
men to the convention. It Is al
most a mass convention as far as
Pierce county goes but the count
ing of noses when the rally call
ed will decide whether Pierce is
for the progressive or reactionary
cause.
Charles Heifner, Wilson man,
will call the convention to order.
G. G. Dill is backed by the pro-
gressives for temporary chairman.
The fight for national commit
teeman is really bigger than that
for delegates to the national con-
vention. Heifner of Seattle, Pat
tison of Eastern Washington are
both after it with Maurice Lang
horn of Tacoma skirting along the
edge.
If the Clark men get enough of
a control they will try to ditch
Langhorne and foist Hugh Wal
lace on the state.

REYNOLDS TO
.HELP JOHNSON

w. P. Reynolds, road supervis-
or, has offered to give work to
John Johnson, the Tacoma out-of-
work and a victim of employment
agency sharks, as told in the
Times Saturday.
johnson will be taken on at
$2.25 day IL he has not in the
meantime secured other employ
ment, as the article has caused
other employers also to desire to
do something.
johnson. however, is only one
of hundreds in similar situations
in Tacoma every day.
AS shown by the books of the
offices themselves,
they are taking from the working
men in this city on an average of
$120 day. The testimony of the
men shows that few get jobs that
enable them to more than earn
enough to get their fees back.

who twinkles beyond tho foot
lights at Miss Paula Dana.
Miss Mitten "did' the colonel's
finger nails some two years ago.
Gazing soulfully into eyes. the
colonel-his wife was in the coun-

was no job for such plump and
pretty person.
"Why don't you become a
great lady actress?"
81 WILL" Miss Mitten replied.
"And then I'll marry you," the
colonel cried.
Miss Mitten changed her name
TO Paula Dana, and an actress sne
became. She says so herself.
