A SPLENDID BOOK FOR
WASHINGTON AND OREGON

John H. Williams, the Tacoma au-
thor and publisher, has just issued a
companion volume to his richly illus
trated book, "The Mountain That
Was God" which has done much to
attract attention to the great noun
tain scenery of the Northwest, and of
which more than 10000 copies have
been sold in two years. The new
book Is entitled THE Guardians of
the Columbia" Not only does it COW
er the story and scenery of the great
river itself, but its principal theme
is the three fine snow peaks which
sentinel the lower Columbia-Mt.
Hood in Oregon and Mts. Adams and
st. Helens in Washington-with
their glaciers, canyons, lava fields,
lava and ice caves, etc. A feature of
the book that will arouse widespread
interest is chapter describing the
wonderful forests of the Columbia
contributed by H. D. Langille of
Portland, a former expert in the
United States forest service.
The new volume is even more
beautiful than its predecessor, "The
Mountain That Was God" More
than 200 illustrations, eight of them
in colors, representing the best work
OF nearly so photographers, enrich it.
A remarkable sale is assured. 1t is
said that no other book of travels or
for travellers published in the United
States has ever scored so great a
success in advance of publication.
One Portland bookseller placed an adj
vance order of 10000 copies. The
price in flexible leather cover is
s2.66 postpaid; In cloth, 1856; in
paper. S3 cents.

DO YOUR DUTY

The primaries for the selection of
candidates to represent the various
political parties will be held on Sep
TENDER 10. The time for filing
notices of candidacy has expired, and
there are plenty of aspirants in the
field for the voters to choose from.
1t is the duty of every man and
woman in the state, who is a quail
fled voter, to assist in the selection of
candidates. Each one who shirks
this duty is helping to discredit the
system of having candidates chosen
by the people instead of by conven-
tions.
Not only is it the duty of every
voter to take part in the primary
election, but it is their duty to call
for the ticket of the party with which
they are affiliated. Democrats who
participate in the republican primary
or republicans who participate in the
democratic primary are violating the
spirit of the law and furnishing argu-
ment to the opponents of the primary
system
1t is true that the law of this state
is defective in compelling each voter
to call for the ballot of the party to
which he belongs, instead of provid-
ing a blanket ballot on which are
printed the names of all the candi-
dates for nominations on all the
party tickets, 1t Is also true that the
law works hardship upon the farm
ers by fixing the date of the primary
in the midst of their busy season.
But the remedy lies in changing the
law, not in violating its provisions.
There is no doubt that all the peo-
pie collectively can be trusted to Sc
lect better and m ore satisfactory can
didates than a convention made up of
few delegates chosen, as a rule, by
| only "a small part of the voters. But
If a large per cent of the people fail
to participate in the selection of can
didates there is danger that the best
politicians rather than the best quail
fled candidates will be chosen
1t is even more important to vote
at the primaries than at the election,
for if the strongest candidates are
selected to make up the several party
tickets, the interests of the state will
be protected whichever wins. But if
incompetent and unworthy candi-
dates are chosen at the primaries on
any ticket there is danger of their
success at the election, in which case
the state is sure to suffer.
Register today. participate in the
primary on September 10, vote on
election day, and then you will have
the satisfaction of knowing that you
have done your duty, even if the can
didates you support go down to de-
| feat.

JUDGE NEILL's DISGRACE"

The efforts of the Colfax Com
moner to curry favor with the voters
of Whitman county would be almost
| pitiful were it not so ridiculous in
many of it's claims. This was never
more true than in it's fight against
Judge Neill, who comes before the
people again with as clean and hon
| orable a record as was ever gained
| by any judge of the superior court
in this or any other county of the
state. The whole sum and substance
of the Commoner's objection to Mr..
| Neill's reelection is based on his be-
ing a socialist, claiming that the So
cialists all over the nation are
boasting of the fact that they elect
ed a judge of the superior court in
Whitman county, and thus giving a
wrong impression of the party's
strength here.
Of all the editorials penned at the
dictation of higher-ups owning this
sheet this particular one shows in
every line to have been written with
the greatest reluctance by the papers
man in charge, who allows his name
to be used In order to shield the real
owners.
AS evidence of the danger of a
newspaper having too many bosses,
the same issue publishes another ed
itorial lauding Victor Berger, social
list member of congress from
Wisconsin, claiming he was directly
responsible for the removal of Judge
Hanford from the federal bench of
the western district of this state,
and is entitled to the thanks of the
people of Washington
The glazing inconsistency of this
so-called democratic sheet has been
shown time and again until the vot-
ers have little faith in anything it
says, especially of a political nature,
and after reading the articles from
the last issue they are more firmly
convinced than ever before that it
is poor policy trying to serve more
than one master at a time.-Tekoa

McCroskey has so emphatically made
good in the position, has given the
taxpayers such an economical and eff

possible to defeat him, either for re-

very wisely kept out of the race.
1t is a fine tribute to a deserving

favor of moderate, revision of the

gress he was outyoted by the Demo

The Hawaiian businessmen who saw
Underwood were impressed with the
fact that he appreciates Hawaii's posi-
tion and that the next Congress will
find him against free sugar.

The suicidal success of the reaction
aries in the Republican party was
complete. No man who stands for j
truly representative party can stand
any longer in the Republican party.
The national committee, with its
power of initiative, defied pubic opin-
. ion, ignored justice. reversed its own
decisions. set aside its own rules, seat
ed its tainted delegates. and openly de-
termined to rule or ruin. 49,.

Sovereign States have been wrong

tion in Republican convention.
1t is no longer q question of policies
or of men, but d great moral question
has arisen. 1t is no new issue-it was
handed down to- us from Sinai, and is
expressed in the eighth commandment,
Thou shalt not steal"
The vital question clearly at issue Is,
Shall the people rule? The crisis is
best expressed in Lincoln's words when
he said:
Il am not bolind to win. but | am
bound to be true; am not bound to
succeed, but r am bound to live up to
the light have, and must stand with
anybody that stands right: stand with
him while he is right and part with
him when. he goes wrong
A new party has been born. 1t came
forth out of those ten dark days in
Chicago, where bosses, beaten in their
own districts, lighting for their polit-
ica1 existence, deliberately stole the
of a President, tlishonored
and their candidates, who
with their followers are still silent as
to their responsibility in accepting the
benefit OF moral wrong.
! To acquiesce or adopt the result of
the Chicago convention is to endorse
fraud, to submit to gag rule, to yield
all hope for or in representative party
government.
The new Progressive party aims to
unite all sections-North and South,
East and West-in demanding social
and industrial justice.
It's cry is, "Injure no man, but let
no man injure you" Its goal is that
which has ever been the aim of the
American people and the hope of the
true democracy. which avoids
he tyranny of the minority as well as
he tyranny of the majority We in
Hawaii can not avoid this issue-we
nave got to meet it,

FOR SECOND FOOT
Francis H. French Ordered to
Regiment -Brigadiers
Nominated

The number of coIonels at Scho

for any length of time, even though
Colonel F. w. Mansfield, the post
commander, leaves next. week on a
two months fiirlough. which will prob
ably be extended until the date of 6is

War Department orders received at
headquarters this morning show that
Colonel Francis H. French, now q
student officer at the Army War Col
lege, has been attached to the End
Infantry. He Is to join the regiment
as soon as possible.
This, on its face, looks like an odd
arrangement, for with the departure
OF Colonel Massfield, Colonel McGun-
nigle Of the 1st Infantry becomes post
commander, by virtue Of seniority.
This leaves the Ist with colonel who
has the large responsibilities of a
brigade post on his shoulders besides
the cares OF his regiment, while the
End will have two full colonels at

any new colonel sent here would be
attached to the 1st, to assist Colonel
McGunnfgle, and that Colonel Rogers
would be left to run the End.
That brigadier general will be-
sent to command Schofield before long

of Colonel Mansfield thought that he
would be elevated to the rank for fiis

IS RECOVERING
FROM injuries

The condition of Miss Ruth Henry,
one of the teachers lost in the noun
tains for three days, and who was in
iured by a fall over precipice, is re-
ported as improving. Miss Henry, ac-
cording to her physician, will be con-
fined to her bed for week at least.
She is at j. p. Cookies Kaipapan resi-
deuce, where she is receiving the best
of care.
TO Hamanu Kilili, a Hawaiian, goes
the credit for the rescue of Miss Hen
ry from the precarious position in
which she, was found. Kilili, who
weighs 225 pounds, carried Miss Henry
on his back over two waterfalls, low
erfng himself over the precipices with
his burden and risking his life each
time. Kilili is a magnificent type OF
the true son of the soil. He did not
seem to think he had done anything
wonderful or dangerous in accomplish
ing the feat which brought Miss Hen
ry to safety
Andrew Adams is generally hailed
as the real rescuer. of the five imper-
lied teachers. He assumed general
charge of all the searching parties,
mapped out the routes each was to,
pursue so that no ground would be
left uncovered, and went without food
and sleep until the rescue was accom- |
plished.
