LABOR COMMISSIONER
WARS ON TIME CHECK
Will Enforce Law Compelling Lum.
ber Camps to Pay Cash or
Negotiable Paper

OLYMPIA, April 2S.-That many
of the numbering camps in the state
have been doing an injustice to their
discharged or retiring employees in the
matter of payment of wages by time
check, is the charge made by Labor
Commissioner Edward w. Olson. Mr.
Olson points out that the law re-
quires that numbering pay offices
must give to the men leaving the en-
ploy of the camps actual cash or ne.
gotiable paper, this law being based
on the theory that the camps are SO
far in many cases from the head Of
flee where the time checks must be
cashed that the men are frequently
handicapped through having to make
their way, often without funds, to the
office.
eve have had many complaints of
this kind" said Commissioner Olson
"By way of illustration, there has
just been to this Office a man abso-
lutely penniless, though carrying a
time check on the company for which
he was working but whose Office was
in Tacoma.
81 intend to see that this law is
enforced. 1t is an outrage on the
workingmen of the numbering camps
of this state to require that he spend
time and money in travelling long disc
tances to headquarters before they
can get cash for their labor.

TALKS AGRICULTURE
c. L. Smith Addresses the Chamber
of Commerce on Formation of
County Farmers League

At the weekly luncheon of the
Chamber of Commerce today, C. l..
Smith, agricultural expert of the
Oregon Washington Railway & Navi-
cation Co., addressed the meeting in
behalf of tne agricultural develop
ment of this section of the state, and
the formation Of a Farmers League
Mr.. Smith ranks high as an agri-
cultural expert in this state, his ad.
vice to farmers along the route of
the Oregon-Washington line having
results in many localities in increas-
ed production and wealth. Owing to
the large field which he must cover
and the fact that Chehalis County
is new territory for his company,
he has not given SO much attention
to this section. Mr.. Smith is a prac.
tical farmer, who has specialized or
his own work, and his talks on soils
are as interesting and beneficial as
the instruction he gives regarding
crops and stock.

THE NEW ADMINISTRATION

A week from tomorrow Mayor
France and the new council will as
sumo Office, and a number of candi.
dates for positions under the new ad-
ministration are becoming anxious
to know their fate. One of the seri-
GUS evils of city government-in
which no political principles are in
volved-is the changes in employees
that are made after each election.
Just when a man becomes sufficient
ly familiar with his job to make
good he is fired to make room for an
other, usually ignorant of the du-
ties and routine Of the position. We
can expect real economy in city
government when efficiency is the
sole requirement for city employe
to be sure Of his job and not before.

NO DEPOSIT REQUIRED
Attorney General Rules That No Cash
Is Required With Applications
to Purchase Tide Lands

OLYMPIA, April 2S.-S. H.Kelleran,
assistant attorney general, in an
opinion to Clark V. Savidge, state land
commissioner, rules that when appli.
cations under preference rights for
the purchase Of first-class tide lands
are made, the land board cannot re-
fuse the same because the applica.
ton is not accompanied by payment
of at least one-tenth of the appraised
value Of the property. Kelleran
likewise holds that no special de-
post may be required, and says there
is a distinction between the selling
of the state-granted school lands and
the state tide lands.
