b. F. WALL won't exist any longer
It will be "Bully for WALL"

"B. F. WALL won't exist any longer.
it will be Bully for Wall"
Out in that section of the county
he is known as the kind of man you
like to call 'bully"-one of the kind
that sees something to do most of the
time and goes through a couple of
stone walls, brick house, two or
three saw mills and a shed full of dy
Mantle to do it, paying no attention
whatever to half a dozen young
mountains.
They won't be able to throw mud
at him, either, or to kid him about
that Bully for Wall business-it's
like the greatness most people would
have you think was thrust upon
them" For, for the last eight years
he was in Washington-andt the first
of these was % years ago-he worked
in the woods as bull puncher. And
that isn't all-after he got tired of
runchin' 'em, he sold them over the
counter in butcher shop he ran in
Bucoda for three years. So you see.
no one can dispute his claim to the
phrase. 1t isn't his fault-he gets
1t through force of circumstances and
name.
The happy part of it is that he is
the kind of man who would bear out
that name. When he sees anything
to be done, he does tit doesn't
make any difference how many people
try to stop him-and when anybody
tells him to do thing. he does it, if
he thinks 1t is right. He Is known as
one of the nerviest and most coura-
geous men in the country.
Above all he has spunk and energy
and that cannot be said about some of
the present inhabitants of the sheriff's
Office or some others who would like
to be there.
Just at present Wall thinks the au-
thorities in. different parts of the
county haven't paid a. much attention
as they should to whether some bar
keepers forgot to close their saloons
on Saturday night but worked right
through on Sunday instead. Some of
them have habit of doing that, It Is
said. It's q bad habit, and Wall In
tends to correct it, IL he IL elected.
That is, Wall intends to press the
local authorities SO close during his
term that they will be compelled to
enforce the law they were elected to
enforce.
Wall isn't the only one In Thurston
county who would like to zee the San
day closing law more strictly enforced.
It Is . law and It should be obeyed.
II 1t wasn't on the statute books It
would be q different matter, but It IL
there and Wall intends to zee that
some individuals who are now ap-
parently ignorant Of its existence are
appraised of the fact that It Ii still
there
Wallis stand on the other laws ID
just the same a. on this-lt,s NO poll
tical pretense with him when he says
he win enforce them. He Isn't that
kind of man. His platform u
better law enforcement than Thurstan
county has known for some time. h1s
particular hobby II the enforcemant
Of III the laws governing the saloon.
Wall WAS born In Wiscoasin q
years ago. but he has lived In wash
ington for the last g years, the last
II in Thurston county. After 10 ct
through bull punching In the woods
and running butcher shop ct Duco6a
he had charge Of the Mutual Com-
pany's mill u Bucoda for two year1L
until he bought the fArm a he 0ko&
kumchuck where he has lived for Tie
last lew years.
