PROSPERITY IN WASHING
TON.

Only four thousand one hundred and
ten citizens of the state of Washing
ton are fortunate enough to have an
annual income of over $4,000.
These must pay an income tax
under the new national income tax
law.
Ten men in the state have incomes
that place them in the 800, 000-and-
over class, the six states of Alabama,
New Hampshire, New Mexico, North
and South Dakota and Oklahoma re-
port that they do not contain a single
individual whose income places him
in that class.
But, of course, capitalism is a sys-
tenn which deliberately sacrifices the
many for the benefit of a very few.

SEATTLE P.I HAS MOMENT
OF bUCIDITY.

Give the Free speechers n Chance.
Councilman Pierce, who ordinarily
displays a level head. seems uuduly
disturbed about the speaking stand
erected In city Hall park by order Of
Mayor Cottorill.
As the Post-lntelligencer under
stands Il. the stand was provided pri-
marily to accommodate the meeting
held recently under the auspices of
the Progressive League and addressed
by an interesting young woman from
the East Whether this is the fact or
not. the erection of the stand was
quite the proper thing and followed
naturally the setting aside of the park
by the council as a sort of public
forum. The fisticuff episode which
married the Sunday afternoon meet
ing does not affect the propriety
or wisdom of the arrangement in the
very least. Such untoward incidents
not infrequently mar the best regu-
lated meetings and are by no means
confined to free speech assemblies.
The council acted wisely in granting
the use of City Hall park for public
speaking. A few disturbers are likely
to abuse the privilege, if they can, no
doubt. These do not crave free speech
half as much as a clash with the au-
thorities. But the free speech contin-
gent is largely made up of harmless
Missionaries, and the Post-Intelligencer
believes in giving them the fullest lati-
tude consistent with public peace and
order to voice their doctrines and air
their grievances. And it sees no valid
reason for disturbing the existing ar
rangement.
As for the small cost of the stand,
the council is in a picayunish business
to be bothering about it. If the city
cannot afford it, let the mayor pay
for it, as he offered to do, and forget
the thing.
Get the municipal mind upon some
thing worth while. There is to much
ado about nothing-P.-I

Judge, addressing the physician, who

this take your troubles to the supreme
court. If l am wrong, you can APP
peal"
DR.. Titus arose to his feet and de-
manded that the court grant him the
right to appeal from the sentence of
nine months imposed more than a
month ago for violating a temporary
street speaking order. DIR. Titus had
neglected to file a statement of facts
within thirty days after sentence, as
required by law.
Il will remind the court that if you
see fit the law allows you to accept the
appeal before sixty days have passed, "
Titus argued,
Doctor, you have sinned away your
day of grace. You can't appeal"
Asks if "Platter Is Clean"
Foster urged that he be given the
privilege. "I'H look into the matter ."
said the court.
Now, is the platter clean?" the
court questioned, as the bailif an
.nounced the adjournment of court.
In the trial of Thomas Wadum yes
terday afternoon it developed that he
was not a citizen, and had not applied
for first papers. Wadum said he was
la scandinavian and a longshoreman.
After examining him Foster suggested
to the court that he ought to be de-
ported, and his case referred to John
Speed Smith, chief government natu-
ralization examiner The court re-
manded Wadum to the county Jail
without a sentence.
