THE RIGHT MAN THIS TINE

Governor Lister has come to the
front with an edict that any per-
son under his jurisdiction who
makes a business of lobbying be-
fore the legislature for pet meas
ures. will be dead sure of losing
his job.
1t is a nice thing to have man
once more in that Office who has
the courage of his conviction and
the backbone to set his stamp OF
disapproval on political tactics and
methods not for the best interests
of the people and the state.
Gov. Lister wants his officials
to know their places and to stay in
them, otherwise, they will be sub
ject to being snatched baldheaded,
and justly, too.
Gov. Listers straight forward
course deserves for him the ever
lasting gratitude of every citizen of
the state regardless of politics.
We need more Listers in the
state of Washington, in every city,
town and county.

MAKE WAR ON THE RATS

For some time The Dawn has
been urging the people of the city
and the farmers of the valley to
make war of determination on
rats. The suggestion, we are glad
to know, is being needed by many
who, like us, regard the rat pest as
one of the greatest menaces to the
public health.
The common brown or Norway
rat infests our city and valley by
the thousands.
Aside from the great damage
which rats do to property, they
are common carriers of germs of
many diseases.
They infest sewers and dump
heaps of all kinds.
No one knows to what extent
the rat is responsible for many cpl
denies that spring up from time to
time.
1t has been proven to be an act
I've agent in the spread of the bu-
bonic plague, historically called
the black death"
kats are susceptible to disease
which very much resembles lep-
rosy.

some-still he is beginning to feel
that few messes OF poke, mustard

like sorrel flley, and if he can
keep on the right side OF the traces
for awhile, there'll be no danger
but what he will work like on old
and tried family horse.
Now, don't take it for granted
that he has absolutely smoothed
out all of the kinks and curves in
his entire anatomy, as his limbs
are as yet not as frisky as they
once were, but bye and bye when
he has devoured a few good slugs
OF pork and beans-or something
else made according to the doctor S
orders, he will feel more like a
black bird in cherry time and by
close attention to biz may be able
to do two days work week and
collect few petty dollars from de-

KEEPING A PROMISE.

Many years ago there lived In Eng.
land a man who was a real noblemaD
as well as a member of the aristoc-
racy. Throughout England he was
known as a man who would keep his
word, no matter what the cost might
be to himself and others.
They said Of him:
IF he promised you an acorn and
all the oaks OF England that year fail
ed TO grow an acorn be would send to
Norway for one"
How much was IL worth to that man
to have a reputation like that? How
much would It be worth TO you. TO me ?
Suppose him 10 have made such a
promise and there were no acorns In
England
He might have said:
81 promised you an ACORN Very
well. have tried to keep my word
lands and throughout England. There
Is no acorn In England cannot keep
my word"
The world might have absolved him
from breaking his word. But his con-
science would have held him to II. II
would have said 10 him:
There are acOrns in Norway or I'm
Russia or hey ond the seven seas. You
promised an acorn. and you must pro
duce an acorn. else you lose what is
dearer 10 you than life-your reputa.
ton for keeping your word Send 10
Norway II necessary send to the
ends OF the earth"
We need nowadays more OF this
British nobleman's spirit. We can do
with far less than we have OF the
spirit which seeks the easy way OF
keeping a promise and. failing that
breaks word lightly.
There is too much passing OF the
word and too slight regard OF il when
II is passed. We make promises, and
We break them all too lightly.
