Society Woman Snubbed as Dry

Mrs. Harold Mccormick, leading society woman
of Chicago and daughter of John D. Rockefeller,
cording to the daily press recently declared her dis
approval Of liquor in mixed clubs At that time she
is quoted saying:
I do exclude the Saddle and Cycle club of which
member. If | had my way, there would be public
drinking the part of do not approve of at
all. In private home it is bad. I would say
that anything actually improper has been INDUCED in
any of the club dances and parties but think few
of the conventionalities have been forgotten
The sequel to this action of Mrs McCormick's is
told in the columns of last Thursdays papers.
One of the daily papers says:
Chicagos social high priesess, Mrs Harold Mccormick,
has been taken her word about approving of liquor in
mixed clubs and when the Saddle and Cycle club of the
exclusive in Chicago has its formal opening Satur
day afternoon, Mrs Mccormick will be missing from the
selected eight society leaders who will welcome the guests
Evidently the daughter of John D. Rockefeller and the
leading spirit of Chicago highest and mghtest society,"
offended somewhat the altogether prohibition Saddlers
and Cycers.
Mrs Mccormick also record saying that she
not in sympathy with hospital that prohibition since

father Mr.. Rockefeller, Mrs Mccormick has per-
mtted liquor to be served in her home.

The government OF republic is supposed to re-

character of its government will also grow in harmony
1t is presupposed that grows older there will be
an increasing growth in the breadth of view and moral
greatness Of its legislators and that its statesmen
make laws the character of its people will compel
willing obedience to these laws. II the testimony OF
ex- ambassador Andrew White of the Statstician Will
bur F. Crafts and many socioogsts who have studied
the subject is republic is not measuring up
to these standards.
We are the most lawless Christian nation IN the
world. We have more murders, more graft, more Ju-
dicia corruption more lynchngs, corrupt city
Governments more disregard for law than any other

What is the cause for this disregard for law and

Construction Work of Shaping Party Policy Lett to
Selfish Interests.
The fundamental trouble is that the men who
IN
constructive work of government particularly in shap
ing party policy have abandoned such work to men
who place self interest first sometimes criminal self
interest Even Christian men have been so absorbed
in developing the of the country and m tax
ing advantage of opportunities tor accumuat1ng
wealth that they have abandoned government largely
to men who purely for personal gain make politics
business Corrupt legislators and legislation is the
inevitable result and when appeal is made to these
self same good men to lend their help in remedy1ng
conditions they often respond that politics IS too
dirty for them take any part in election contests
One of the hopeful signs Of the time is that such
men are becoming fewer in number as the years go

root in the hearts of Christian citizenship namely that
the good man who fails to is just responsible
for bad government the bad man who votes wrong.

Seeking a Way Out.

That the men who control the big in
dustrial corporations OF the country
are convinced tnat the people are de-
termined to break cd these monopO-
lies, and that they are seeking way
to escape this mandate of the people,
are among the most important facts
brought out by the Senate trust in
vestigating committee.
Louis d. Brandeis, the noted Boston
lawyer, told the committee that the
statements of Mr.. Gary and Mr.. Per-
kins. that the trusts were willing to
accept price fixing law, were only
apparent concessions. What the mag
mates want, Mr.. Brandeis said. is the
passage of the Aldrich monetary
scheme, which will insure the continu-
ance of centralized control of money
and credit, on which all business de-
pends. These magnates, the lawyer
testified, are bending every effort to
gain the enactment of the A ldrich plan
into law, and one of their methods, he
said. was to blind the people to their
real purpose by making them believe
the trusts are willing to surrender.

Getting First Hand Facts.

Sixty of the Democratic members of
the House of Repre- are uti-
lizing the holiday recess to make a
first hand study of conditions in the
Panama canal zcne. Inasmuch as the
canal is eating up government money
at the rate of several-thousands of dol
lars a day the Democrats hold that it
is their duty to see, personally. that
this money is being wisely and proper
ly spent. The question OF fortifying
the canal will come up soon, ard as
this will mean large additional eX-
penditure, The Democrats propose to
know just why and where this money
is to be expended. Hence they are
taking advantage of the temporary
letup in affairs at Washington to in
vestigate.
Speaker Clark has urged all the
Democrats to visit the canal zone at
some time, and practically all of them
propose to follow his advice. This is
in line with the announced Democratic
program to get to the bottom of every
proposition which calls for an expendi-
ture of government money.

LOCALS LOSE FIFTH
GAME OF THE SERIES
Visitors Have Their Batting Clothes on
and'WOn Game 9 tO7

Sundays defeat was a bitter pill to
swallow. The locals had figured strong
on grabbing the game and fought every
minute OF the time to overcome their
rivals lead, but Kile was invincible
in the pinches and when the ninth in
ming closed the score stood 9 to 7.
The day was an ideal one for ball
game, and Stevens seemed to be in
better condition than ever. But there
was nothing to it, the visitors were
destined to win and nothing could
stop them.
Five hits and six runs were secured
off Stevens in the four innings that he
pitched, during which time he walked
one man and struck another. AS the
situation began to look gloomy he was
replaced by Brown in the opening OF
the fifth. Blu, the visitors were not to
be stopped by such a move as this and
during the next FIVE innings they
drove out six hits and gathered in
three more runs.
Kile allowed the locals 8 hits and
gave three walks, but was in control
of himself at all times. and during the
latter part of the game, when hit
would have meant two scores, he had
no trouble in striking out his man or
make him pop up an easy fly.
When the ninth inning opened it
found the visitors leading 9 to 5. A
desperate effort was made to tie the
score and two more runs were made,
but that ended it.

THE WATER BONDING
PROPOSITION FAILED
Small Registration and Light VOte-VeY
Quiet Election

The election which was held last
Tuesday to decide wether this town
should issue its bonds for Sal 800 to
pay $21, 900 for the distribution system
of the Tumwater Light & Water Co.,
and expend $19, 900 in laying larger
pipes, extending the mains and INSTALL
ing fire hydrants, met defeat at the
hands of the voters. Following is the
vote:
North Side-To adopt plans ----- 70
South Side-To adopt plans ------ "a
Total to adopt plans ----- 154
North Side-Opposed to plans 81
South Side-Opposed to plans 81
Total opposed to plans ------ 158

South Side-Approving bonds - 81
Total approving bonds ----- 168
North Side-Opposing bonds - 80
South Side-Opposing bonds - o9
Total opposing bonds ------- 154
Majority opposed to adopting plans 4
Majority approving bonds -------- IA
Both propositions having failed to re-
ceive three-ffths of the vote cast, as
required by law, the proposition failed.
Curiously enough some of the vot-
ers favored adopting the plans but op-
posed issuing the bonds, while others
opposed the plans and favored issuing
the bonds, evidently not understanding
that if either proposition failed to re-
ceive three-ffths OF the vote cast both
propositions failed. 1t appears the
proposition had to be submitted in this
way, but in the adoption or rejection
they went together.
i. Notwithstanding the instructions on
the ballot to make the cross inside OF
the square one voter made his crosses
outside of the square, evidently just to
show his independence. Some voters
seem to want to vote but do not care
whether their vote is counted

COUNCIL VOTES TO
PAVE STREETS
Ordinance To Pave Street Has Its First
Reading Monday Night

The council met in adjourned ses-
sion in the City Hall Monday night.
After A. Lindblom the new council
man appointed last meeting had taken
the oath Of Office the paving PROPOSE
ton was taken up. A number Of pro-
tests were read among them the Great
Northern Railway which has frontage
Of over a thousand feet on Front
street. An effort had been made to
get the railroad company to withdraw
their protest, but L. w. Woodrow, ter
minal agent who represented the com
pany said they had no intention of
doing so.
After going over the protests made
it was found that most of those who
were opposed to the paving did not
reside in the city, and as it required
662 1-3 per cent of the property own
ers to defeat the proposition, the pro-
testers had lost. Mayor Carlquist
called for vote on the question with
the result that every member on the
council voted to pave. The first read
ing OF the ordinance followed.
A complaint against the lunch wag-
on being operated by Jesse Maupin
on Front street was taken up and af-
ter much discussion it was finally de-
clared a nuisance and Marshall Bohn-
sack was instructed to notify Mr.. Mau-
pin to keep his wagon off the front
and side streets. AS there was no
other business on hand the council ad-
journed.
