porting deserving man. Mr.. Lee
Coco some years ago served one
term as mem ber of the board of

purposes of the board and is better
fitted for the performance of the
duties than new man who never
has had experience and is unfamil-
lar with the complicated details
connected with the control of the

Mr.. LeCocq's sympathies are with
the people of the state, and as a

times stand as a protector of their
interests. Mr.. LeCocq is a man
of the highest standing and integ-
rity and Is deserving of your vote.

The house of representatives has
voted to abolish the new CONNIE cree
court which was esta blished by the
last congress. The objection to it
seems to be that too many decis-
ions have been rendered in op-
position to the rulings of the inter
state commerce commission. Just
what advantage would be derived
from this move it is difficult to
understand. The judges of this
court are appointed as federal dis
trict judges and assigned to service
on this commerce court. Should
this court be abolished the judges
would simply be transferred to
district courts and continue to
serve as judges. If there were no
commerce court the cases that are
now taken to that court would be
taken to the district courts the
same as they we're before that
court was esta blished, and hence
the same judges would pass upon
them. Would the decisions Of
these judges be any more salts.

various districts than when acting
together as a commerce court? Oh
course there is an opportunity te
appeal from the decision of a dis
trict Judge, but the same recourse
Is open now from the commerce
court, so the difference would
simply be that it would take
little longer to get a final adjudic
alton on a case than under tn
present system.

republican candidate for congress-

dressed the people of Scotland
Tuesday evening. Before and
after the speech the male quartette
which travels with him favored the
audience with some excellent music
which was greatly appreciated.
The address by Mr.. Branson was
generally conceded to be the best
political speech that has been
given here during the present cam
paign. His talk was eloquent,
forcible, clean and abounding in
good common sense. There was
no mud singing or reflections upon
any other candidates, no appeal to
factional prejudices but a plain.
unequivocal presentation of his
ideas regarding the leading issues
now before the people. He favors
a revision of the tariff downward
and commended the work of the
tariff commission favors govern
ment control and regulation of
trusts and monopolies; would
abolish the express companies
prohibit the watering of stock in
all corporations favors the princi
pie of universal peace. He did
not promise, if elected to go to
Washington and take charge of
congress, the supreme court and
the executive functions of our
government and adjust all of these
things within year, but simply
pledged himself to use his best en-
deavors to carry out these and
other issues in the interest of his
constituents. This is the first ap-
pearance of Mr.. Branson before
Scotland audience, and the i'm
preston that he made was very
favorable.

U. OF W. Lands Firth Consecutive
Championship

The members of the University of
Washington football team made
themselves champions of the North
west by defeating W. S. c. in the
final game of the season--the tur-
Key day conflict This makes the
fifth consecutive championship for
the big Seattle institution and for
the foxy Dobie, who had charge of
these five consecutive teams. The
unsuccessful rival colleges must wait
another season fer an opportunity to
break up this apparent monopoly.
The final score of the Thanksgiv-
Ing contest. 10 to in favor of the
University, may give persons who did
not see the game the idea that the
State College lads were overwhelmed.
But that is far from being the case
Every man on the team put up
splendid fight. The University team
made many lucky plays and really
earned but one touchdown. This
was their first touchdown, being
made soon after the game began by
steadily forcing the visiting team
back over their goal line. After this
the w. s. c. team got together in
better shape and the University team
found it hard to make any great
gains. Several strokes of good fort
une enabled the clam diggers" to
get close enough to the w. S. C.
goal line in the second quarter to al
low their versatile quarter, Bud
Young, the pleasure of making two
drop kicks. The remaining touch
