SOCIALIST FAILURES.

Socialist victories in the German elections have
aroused interest .egarding the performances to the
credit of that movement in this country In consider
ing these it must be noted that the socialists have
never been in the majority anywhere on this side
of the Atlantic and they therefore claim that they
have never had the chance to put their theories in
practice and carry them out to their logical con-
clusion Every socialist victory the polls has been
oneifh socialist and our-ffths protest by dissatis
fled voters who know little and less about
ciaism but who wished to vote against someone
Voting against a a political machine is
thing, and voting for socialism is another.
However, votes cast against machine politics did
elect Mayor seidel of Milwaukee and his record is
of interest because that city contains large proper
ton of Germans.
Mayor Seidel is a man of ability and undoubted
honesty but he has failed to do anything that
expected of him that he hoped to accomplish.
In the last year the tax roll of Milaukee has been
increased by million dollars and the public service
is the most expensive and inefficient that Milwaukee
has known, and that is saying great deal be-
Mwaukee's record in that line is too
good. Mayor Sede went into Office the crest of
of protest against extravaganza and unftness
in the city service
Reforms recommended by Mayor Seidel and also
adopted by the city council have proved to be Illegal
or unconstitutional and the ordinances in other
have been loosely drawn that they have been de-
clared void by the court His pet scheme was the
establishment of a bureau of efficiency and economy
He got his bureau, and it has spent twenty thousand
dollars in doing nothing. 1t has proved to be the
most inefficient municipal body that Milwaukee has
known and it is hard to think anything
to say about it.
Mayor Lunn of Schenectady, New York, also
socialist who his election to unrest is travelling
similar path He finds himself tangled in maze
of technical and legal mistakes due his hasty at
tempts to do things that contrary to law and the
constitution. Both these socialist mayors have
failed to advance the interests and have inflicted
positive injury upon the welfare of their cities be-
cause they refuse to work with the tools that lie
| at their hands Both estimable in private
life and both desire better conditions but they
carried away by the inherent demagoguery of their
cult
These experiments with socialism somewhat
costly but they will be worth the price il they teach
the people of this country that socialism is i'm
possible dream because all not absolutely
honest and industrious. and because it contains
fundamental in that it does not recognize the
proper status of the family The family and not the
individual is the unit of society,

PULLMAN WILL PAVE
IN ALL PROBABILITY
City Council Directs Engineers To
Establish Grades and Prepare
Estimates

An adjourned meeting of the city
council was held Wednesday evening
at which the paving proposition was
given big boost The vote by which
the council refused to pay for the inn
provement Of the quadrangles at
street intersections was reconsidered
and motion carried that the city
pay 10 per cent Of the cost OF paving
and curbing the streets In the pro-
posed Improvement districts. Law
Ter, McAlister and Haynes voted
against this motion.
Professors NJ X Snyder and L.
Y. Edwards were employed to act as
city engineers and instructed to pro-
coed at once to establish the grades
of the streets which 1t is proposed to
improve, and to make estimates of
the cost. They are each to be paid 80
cents an hour for time actually spent
on the work
The mayor appointed Henry, Law
Ter and Sanger as a committee to find
out the cost Of the machinery re-
quired for paving work Some be-
lieye that the city can save money
by purchasing the necessary machin-
cry and doing the paving by day la
Dor instead of letting the work to
contractors.

BIG TRACK MEET
WITH THE j. OF ".
Old Rivals VIII Contest on CindeT
Track for First Time in Ten
Years

Athletic interest now centers In the
big track meet which will come off
on Rogers Field tomorrow afternoon
For the first time since 1902 w. S. c.
and the T. of w. will come together
in a field meet and 1t promises to be
a great contest
The feature Of the meet will be the
races between Courtney and Cooke in
the dashes, heralded as the greatest
contest since the days of Nelson and
Edmundson. Courtney's supporters
place him as the premier Splinter in
the Northwest today While Cookies
races again Montgomery Of Idaho In
both the 100 and 220 of last years
meet give him the right to challenge
the Washington marvel Cookies poor
showing at Whitman may lend con-
siderable confidence to the West Sid
ers, but watch him closely next Sat
urday afternoon.
Another man who will bear watch
ing is Carl Dietz, the Freshman
'phenom." who got away with IL
points In his first appearance in col
legiate athletics. His distance In the
javelin was close to the Northwest
record in that event. while the
Washington team Is strong with the
spear as well With this competi-
tion a new record is expected. The
dope indicates division of points in
the weight events, with Love and
Dietz grabbing flrsts in the discus and
iayelin and the hammer and shot go
ing to Washington.
Prospects here took big boost
when Powell succeeded In straighten-
ing out his little difficulty with the
faculty, which kept him out of the
Whitman meet, but which was not
sufficient to bar him from the entire
seasons work.

STRENUOUS DAYS
FOR TRACK TEAM
High School Athletes Enter Meet at
Genesee Today and Garfield
Tomorrow

Today and tomorrow will be
strenuous days for the track team of
the Pullman high school This morn
ing they will leave in automobiles for
Genesee to take part in a triangular
meet with the Lewiston and Genesee
high schools. This meet was sched-
uled for two weeks ago, but had to
be postponed on account of unfavor-
able weather. The boys have an ex-
cellent prospect of winning this meet
and are sure to make good showing
and bring home a number of medals.
To morrow morning they have to
make an early start for Garfield to
participate in the Whitman county
high school meet. According to the
dope sheet either Pullman or ColfaX
should take first place in this meet,
with the chances in favor of ColfaX,
both on records made and because
of the handicap which the Pullman
boys will be under on account of TAX
ing part in meet the day before.
However, the members of the local
team have been getting into first
class condition by hard and faithful
practice during the past few days
and can be depended upon to give a
good account of themselves in both
contests.
