The StNtc Ticket.

aberdeen Herald Democratic.)
In all the history of the state of
Washington, the Democratic party has
never had the opportunity to carry
the state that is presented this year,
and, with the list of clean, capable
men that have filed from governor
down, a failure to seize this Oppor-
tunity can only occur through lack of
organization and misdirected effort.
1t is not surprising that the party Or
ganization is weak. The wonder is
that it exists at all, after the long
years of defeat. But chance is due,
if every Democrat will but do his
duty.
Under normal conditions, the Re
publican vote was never two to one
with the Democratic, and this year,
with our Republican friends split In
two, and thousands f1Ocking to Wilson,
disguised with the rOttenness revealed
in the congressional investigations,
which show how the G. o. p. was
offered on the block every four years
to the highest bidding trust; with John
c. Lawrence travelling over the state
preaching on the wasteful extrava-
gance of the Republican administra-
ton, and Fishback airing the cor
ruptiOn Of the state insurance office,
1t is small wonder the thoughtful citi-
zen is looking to the Democratic party
for relief. Under these conditions,
and bearing in mind the only Demo
cratic administration the state ever
had, when economy and efficiency were
the only requirements exacted, it is
not surprising that thousands of erst-
while Republican voters intend sup
porting the entire Democratic ticket
this year.

his coming had been advertised all

(Chehalis County Call, Republican,
The much touted Republican rally
held in Aberdeen in the city hall last
week at which Governor M. E. Hay
was the principal speaker must have
been a crusher to Mr.. Hays hopes for
aid in this section of the state for it
was a veritable frost in every sense
of the word. BY actual count there
were exactly AZ voters present and of
these at least Is we're known to be
progressives and opposed to Governor
M. E. Hay, who merely turned out
from curiosity.

"Our Governor"

(Chehalis County Call. Republican,
Oregon has a governor of which
the people may well be proud, and so
has California, and Washington would
also have governor who would be a
credit to the state had not the lamented
Cosgrove died, and thereby made an
accident governor. California's gov
ernor has made a record which has
placed him as one of the foremost
men in America, today looked upon
as future president. OregOn's gov
ernor has taken upon himself the duty
of seeing that the laws of the state are
enforced and is removing corrupt and
derelict officials. What Is Washing
toms governor doing along this line?
He is simply running up and down the
state trying to further his political in
terests and nothing more. Never at
home, never at Olympia where he
belongs. Who pays the governors ex-
penses while he is out ON SO many
trips and jaunts? Is it the state or is
the governor wealthy enough to pay
his expenses out of his own pocket?

Lincoln County for Todd.

Davenport Tribune, Democratic)
Hugh Todd should be proud of the
vote given him by old Lincoln county
friends, and these same friends are
praying right now that the apparent
closeness of the contest will result
in his favor. Todd's nomination
means his election and his election
means a better administration of
state affairs.

Drury for Congress.
Progressive Democracy

Progressive Democracy
From all accounts received up to
going to press Charles Drury has
been nominated for congress from the
second (Tacoma) district. Charles
Drury is one Of the most Independent
candidates that ever received a par
tisan nomination and it is up to those
who believe in a man who does right
regardless Of party, to give Mr.. Drury
their votes. If you want a man back
in Washington that will see that Wash
ington and Tacoma are kept on the po-
litical map, vote for Drury. II you
want to send q man to congress that
will have influence from the time he
enters Washington. give Drury your
vote. Mr.. Drury was an original Will
son man and he has a personal &C.
quaintance with New Jerseys great
governor that will stand Tacoma and
the state in hand after the fourth day
of March. Every indication, political
and otherwise leads the best informed
to believe that Woodrow Wilson will
be the next president. That being the
case it will pay Tacoma and the South
west to send Drury to congress.

Cosmopolitan, Cosmopolis, Demo-
Ocratic.)
THE WASHINGTON STANDARD of Olym-
pia is into the present campaign to
win. The STANDARD Is going to WELD a
great deal Of influence during the next
six or seven weeks.
John Miller Murphy made record
for that paper which makes every read
er of it believe in it, hence the influ-
ence. Also the present editor is fol-
lowing the Murphy standard of relia-
bility. The STANDARD deserves the
support of the Democracy at large and
should have it.

wosIAN's INFLUENCE AT ELEC-
TIONS,

Voting by women has already had
at least one wholesome effect upon
elections. The polling places have
been moved into locations calculated to
make for cleaner and more impartial
balloting. The following statement
from the Woman's journal shows how
the feminine element has bettered con-
ditions:
AT tho recent election in Denver In
five precincts the polling places were
located in churches Where men
alone vote. any vacant store Is con-
sidercd suitable; where women vote,
libraries, schools and churches are
used for polling places.
When tho concentrating sex goes
into politics. politics becomes home
like and polling places locate them
selves naturally in places pleasant
and fit for women to go.
1T Is cheaper, too. Tho city of Los
Angeles saved $4,000 by using public
election ut which women voted"
The total result of this change is
not only q more refined standard of
conduct among voters and c saving
In money to the city. but also n height
cnod civic consciousness The use of
libraries and schools for public cleo
tions must impress upon the partici-
Innts that they are really taking part
in regulating their own affairs. Moth
Ing is sadly needed In American
municipal life as the feeling that cleo
lions are conducted by the citizens in
t,t
sake OF n political party or a personal
politician. When n man casts his bal
lot In a school, he realizes that his
vote is n vital matter in deciding the
character and cost of education his
children viii receive In return for his
taxes. He is less likely TO be In
fuenccd by partisan considerations and
moro by the rock bottom facts that
hc Is responsible for his own city gov
crnmcnt. This vivid sense of being
an actual partner In control of his
own homo and It's surroundings is n
great factor In educating the best
civic virtue.
