Respect for the Sabbath.

1t is really surprising how many
people do not seem to know-or is it
care-for the fact that they are law
breakers, when they engage in labor
on the Sabbath day? Especially is
this true when in employment of a
public work, such as engineer in set
ting compass to determine street
bounds, or of house-mover to spend
Sunday in tinkering with the fire.

other hammers going-in front Of us
and back of us, one of them engaged
in q no less JOB than building .
wooden house, so near the fire limits
as to materially increase the risk of
inhabitants OF Block %.
Sunday should be day of rest to
the community, if not season of
prayer for the religiously inclined.
1t is and should be guaranteed as
such by those intrusted with execu-
ton of the law. The sounds of a
hammer and saw are seldom heard on
the Lords day outside of mining
camps, where men are isolated from
female society, and churches and
schools are unknown, and men knock
about with unshaven faces. unclean

fame language to all matters requir.

ton that is the natural accompani-
ment of the life of man when he
abandons the restraints imposed by
civilized custom. 1t is the duty Of
those having charge of the public
service to see that the common sense
obligations OF man to man, erjoined
and stipulated by law, should be en-
forced in each community. for the
benefit Of all.

IT may be questionable whether
women should take an active part in
strike-breaking. but there can be
none that policeman should not turn
their guns upon them when they at
tempt going to work for manufac-
turers who are under ban. Their sex
should protect them from deadly as
suit under all circumstances. It is
said the strikers have decided to
practice sabotage and work as strike
breakers to enable them to do dam.

It's All In a Name.
Yakima Republic.

The editors of the Tacoma Ledger and
Seattle Post-Intelligencer come about as
near being plumb idiots as any two
smart men with whom we are acquainted.
Both of them insist that the goeduck is
name from some alleged Greek root
meaning earth and they assert that to
this some educated Siwash of the past
has added the English word "duck,"
making the pride of Olympia an earth
duck" One of these editors tells usthe
Siwash people think they are connected
to the Asiatics, and therefore it is quite
reasonable to think they once used the
Greek language to some extent. We
cannot wonder that the people have SO
little respect for for the newspapers
when they find so much bosh of this
sort in our great dailies. 1t is a geoduck,
and it has no Greek root and it not a
bird. 1t was named, not by q Siwash,
but by John Miller Murphy, the first
white child in America. The word, like
many of the strongest and best in our
language, is natural" Col. Murphy
has often told us how he came to think
OF it. The story is as simple IS falling
off OF a 10y. The colonel had wandered
for y hours ON the Olympia tidefats
with nothing to eat. He shot one of
these things just when he thought it was
all off with him, roasted it and ate it.
He called it what it tasted and sounded
like when he began to masticate it.
That's all there is to the origin of the
name. Col. Murphy, who still fourishes
at Olympia, will be glad to verify this
story. and if there is then any lingering
suspicion that Greeks and Siwashes had
anything to do with the name he will
point out that this incident occurred
about the time the Greeks were wiped
off the earth by Hannibal Hamlin, and
long before the Siwashes came to the
country.
Certainly we are glad to verify"
almost anything Col. Robertson as
serts. especially as he was an eye
witness of the feast we both had off
the geoduck we had shot with a
spade. and it is no harm to state
that he, as q representative of his
nationality-the Asiatics-fresh from
the Orient, suggested the root"
applied to . product that the 7pins
have so endlessly and continuously
verified" as q bird" by columns
of reiteration in their accounts OF the
geoduck feast lately held.
