BRYAN CABINET HEAD
wiley Probably Secretary OF A%ricHl-
ture-isrnnJiciS Attorney General.

PRINCETON, n. j., Nov. s.
Though it is known President-elect
Wilson has made no promises or
pledges, leading Democrats believe
several cabinet appointments are VIZ
tually settled These are:
William J. Bryan, as secretary o.
state.
DR.. Harvey w. Wiley. former chief
chemist. as secretary of agriculture.
Louis ID. Brandeis, the Boston attor
ney. as attorney g neral.
William G.. McAdoo, vice chairman
of the Democratic national committee,
is also slated for cabinet portfolio,
either as postmaster general or secre-
tary of war.
Josephus Daniels. national commit
teeman from North Carolina. and
chairman of the Democratic publicity
bureau. is also regarded as likely
choice for postmaster general
Chairman William F. McCOmbS OF
the national committee it is reported,
will not be called to the Wilson cab
met but will be taken care of in some
other capacity if he desires. He is in
poor health and is expected to avoid
any heavy or combining work.
For secretary of the treasury, Rep
resentative A. Mitchell Palmer, Wilson
leader in Pennsylvania, or Representa-
tive William c. Redfield of New York
are generally regarded as leading in
Wilson's consideration. Redfield, who
retires from the house March 4, is also
talked of for secretary of commerce
and labor. Labor Commissioner
Charles P. Neill is also possibility
for that portfolio.
Other Democratic chieftains said tC
be cabinet timber are State Chairman
Homer S. Cummings of Connecticut
ex-Mayor John w. Guthrie of Pitts
burg, Colonel Robert Ewing, Louisiana

tive Henry of Texas, National Com
mitteeman Wade and Jerry B. Sui

THE. VETS WIN,

So decided was the victory OF the
vets in the local option election Tues
day that further comment is unneces-
sary except TO point out one or TWO
features of the vote 1t may be that
there will be lamentations in some
quarters, that aSpersionS Will be cast
upon the people of this city by some
well meaning but misguided citizens,
but the triumph of the pro-license fore
cs was so great that even these should
hold their tongues.
No criticism can be made of the ac-
ton of the people OF Olympia without
its throwing a shadow on the hundreds
of wives and mothers in this city who
voted for a wet town. Their support
of the pro-license standard is the strlk-
ing feature of the electiOn-wlll the
anti-license agitators dare to cast any
reflection upon them?
Thanks to these women, who realize
better than does the church and most
ministers that in the church and the
home lies the responsibility for the
morals of the day and not in mere leg
islative act, Olympia will not be called
upon to test fallacious theory, to en-
dure a stagnant two years to prove to
few temporary citizens who led the
dry fight that local option is useless
and failure. They realize that the
| foundation of any moral movement
must begin with the cause of that
movement and not with it's effect
In statement issued when his over
whelming defeat was made known
early Tuesday night, Rev. c. A. Bowen,
! who led the dry fight, declared that
with the passage of the initiative and
referendum Washington as state
would be required to vote on total pro,
hibition inside of a year. Rev. Mr..
Bowen is given to wild flights of fancy
on questions on which he appears to be
woefully ignorant; perhaps some dav
he, too, will realize that the church,
the home and the schools must elevate
through education the moral tone of a
community before he can expect to in
sure the remedial effect of legislation
will realize that it is the cause and not
the effect that must be removed. We
hope he will.
We rejoice over the outcome of the
fight in the present instance. We be
lieve the people of Olympia should be
congratulated for the wisdom they
have shown in preferring the licensed
saloon to the sneaking "speak-easy,'
in preserving to their city the spirit OF
progress. prosperity and certain growth
that was paramount until this dry
fight was instituted and which has al
ready returned.
Olympia is now fast climbing the up
ward road. The fatality that threaten
ed its future has been thwarted. We
will see our city grow bigger, better
and more prosperous constantly. We
are glad it is to be so.
