Deputy Sheriff L. E. Smith, who re-
signed his place in Painesdale, Mich,

Smith left his job in disgust when
one of the deputies deliberately start

then brought clubs and guns into
play.
Smith gave out the interesting in
formation that they were instructed
to keep the imported strikebreakers
veritable prisoners and never allow
them to leave mine property.
The former deputy, who has had
the advantage Of hearing some in
side information around the COM
pany's offices, also predicted that the
strike will end in victory for the
men because the mine owners are
not turning out enough copper to
pay for the lights they are using. l

But even at that time don't believe

trouble with the strikers if it hadn't
been for the WaddelI-Mahon gunner.
"They were constantly starting
trouble. They boosted of being there
for that purpose. The thing that fin

couple of weeks ago when the three
strikebreakers were killed.
Personally, 1 don't believe the
strikers got those men. They were

where no strikers would dare in

"They were killed about 8 o'clock

Then a Waddell-Mahon man fired

Hamilton shouted out orders. The
parade broke up and the strikers fed.
We chased them to the hills. Hamil-

knocked him unconscious.
THAT sort of work was going on
all the time. And it was all started
by the Waddell-Mahon men in charge
of a fellow named Nellis from Chi

OVERCOMING LITTLENESS


 THE Post InteRligencer criticises
 Secretary of State Bryan be-
 cause he at one time opposed rais- ing the salaries of Federal Judges and now says that $12.OOO a year is too little for the Secretary of State to live on. It suggests that the Judges do not get that much. Why will newspa- pers permit blind partisanship make them act so small? The editorial writ CTS of the Post-Intelligencer know as well as anybody that the Federal Judges are not called upon to enter tain the representatives and notable visitors of all the foreign Nations in the Uinted States, and they know that Federal Judges are appointed for life. They seem to think, however, that their readers do not know so much, and they seek to make capital out of the assumed ignorance. The little ness of the Acknowledgements atti- tude toward Bryan is unbecoming a newspaper that is so fair in most things.

DIR. GEORGESON AND HIS WORK.


 THE tribute paid by Scott c. Bone,
 editor of the Seattle Post-In-
 telligencer. to Charles Christ ian Georgeson and the work he has done in Alaska has been we'll earned by that faithful official. Dr. Georgeson has devoted fifteen splendid years of capable service to Alaska - service that will be valued for many genera tions after his life shall cease. He came to the Territory with a well equipped mind. and he brought with it an industry and an earnestness of purpose that have enabled hi into dem- Onstrate beyond any doubt the practi- cability of agricultural pursuit in this land that before his time was valued for it's minerals, fisheries, furs, and ivory, for its big game, scenery, and Indian curios, but for little else. Those that have followed his capable, tire less and conscientious course in Alas ka wish Dr. GeorgesOn a long life that he may continue for many years the working out of the problems for which he is so we'll qualified.

HUGH TODD AND THE SENATOR
 SHIP.

IF HUGH C. TODD should become ! Senator from the State of Wash
 ington he will be the youngest man in that body by several years. He is now barely 30 years of age-four years younger than Senator Luke Lea, of Tennessee, the present baby of the Senate. For one of his years, Mr. Todd already has achieved a great deal in a political way He served two terms in the State Legislature be- fore he had reached the age of 2S, and in the three sessions of those two Legislatures he was recognized as the minority leader in the House. He was defeated for the nomination for Governor last fall, by a plurality of less than 500 votes in race with six other strong men, only to become chairman of his party's State Central committee and to conduct campaign in which the Democrats elected the Governor for the first time in a dozen years.

SOMETHING TO BE BORNE IN
 MIND.
-O-O-

THOSE who are interested in the
 trial of Gov. Sulzer should not
 lose sight of the fact that he was impeached because he refused to take dictation from Boss Murphy and for nothing else. While the charges against him involve violation of the law his accusers care nothing for that. So far as they are concerned his guilt or innocence is a Natter Of indifference. The charges have been preferred as a preteXt for removing an obstacle to the machinations of un- crupulous political machines. The Frawley committee reported it's charges and the House of Representa- tives voted the articles of impeach- ment because they were told to do so by the boss. and for no other reason.
 This condition of affairs does not justify violation of the corrupt prac- tices act. and their recital is not in- tended for that purpose. It is Gov. Sulzer's duty to meet the charges that have been made against him as com plctely as though they had been made in good faith. However, the condition is one that will add to the presumption of innocence in this case until the con- trary clearly appears beyond reason able doubt

SCOTT c. BONE AND HIS VIEW
 POINT.

OCOTT c. BONE, editor of the Se- O attle Post Intelligencer, who
 made the trip through Alaska with the New Seattle Chamber of Com merce excursion, did so with his eyes wide open and his newspaper in- stinct on edge. The articles that he is writing for his paper on Alaska are excellent. The Alaska viewpoint of the author is as true as though he had lived here all his life. The pub licity that Alaska is securing through Mir. Bone and his articles is the kind of publicity that will do good, because it breathes the spirit of those that live here and are glad of it.

the iron in man. Applied socialism
would be a soporific which would

say now that there are certain null
u-millionaires in this country who
are manufacturing socialists a hun

What Kansas Has Done.
Governor Hoch recited briefly what
Kansas has done in the way of pro-
gressive legislation. He told of how
his people had fought the binding
twine trust by putting a plant in the
state penitentiary and reduced the
cost more than half of how the book
trust had been broken so that now
school children secure their texts
much cheaper; of how Standard Oil
had been fought by an anti -discrim-
ination law which resulted in the es-
tablishment of 10 independent oil re-
fineries and the saving of more than
a million dollars a year to the con-,
sumels; of the railroad legislation
which gives the poor the same priv
ileges of the rich; of the juvenile
court law which has greatly reduced.
the criminal record; of the bank
guarantee law which has prevented
any depositor in the 900 banks from
losing a cent and of the blue sky law
which has kept swindlers and their
fake schemes away from the state.
Strong for Prohibition.
Not the least part of his lecture
was devoted to championing the
cause of prohibition for which his
state is famous. He declared that the
three greatest factors in life. the BIZ
ble science and business, are opposed
unalterably to the use of intoxicating
liquor. That statewide prohibi-
tion is practicable. he said, is shown
by its success in Kansas and he cited
statistics to prove his assertion that
under prohibition his state has pro-
gressed more industrially, morally
and mentally than any state in the
union.
Among other things that the speak
er advocated was the universal adop-
ton of woman suffrage and his pre-
diction that 1t is only matter or
few years when the motherhood of
the world will take its place alongside
the fatherhood in civil government as
in the home was received with enthu-
siasm especially by the ladies in the
audience.
In concluding his address, Cover
nor Hoch made a powerful appeal tc
the young men to abstain from the
use of liquor and cigarettes if they
would succeed in the world. Also he
attacked the theory that the poor boy
is handicapped in life, disproving IT
by numerous illustrations. "All any
boy needs to succeed is grit and
gumption," was the homely message
he gave to the young men present
Finally, the speaker paid a splen-
did tribute to the Bible, 1.-The Book
of. all Books" in which he said every
government problem that ever exists
has its root.

TO HAVE HER OWN YACHT.
American Wife of Rcar-Admiral Dav
Id Realty Orders q Craft.

HI tbStuttN
London.-Since the curtailment of
privileges once granted to highly
placed naval officers when yachts
were placed at their disposal by the
Admiralty, Mrs. David Beatty, the
American wife of the popular rear
admiral of that name. has not been
so much In evidence in yachting cir
cles as formerly.
1t was thought, however, that her
passion for the sea would sooner or
later make her assert her independ-
ence of government favor, and that
she would provide herself with a
yacht of her own.
AS a daughter of the late Marshal
Field, Mrs. David Beatty can have no
difficulty in satisfying her ambition
in this direction. 1t Is said that she
has now placed an order with the
we'll known firm of yacht builders at
Clydebank, Scotland, where Sir Thorn
as Upton had his "Shamrocks" con-
structed.
Since Winston Churchill, In his ca
pacity as First Lord Of the Admiralty
issued his edict reducing the number
of yachts for private purposes, Mrs.
Beatty has never been aboard one of
them, although as the wife of dis
tinguished naval officer she is entitled
to certain privileges not enjoyed by
the wives of subordinate officers.
