DEMOCRATS MEET
AND ACT PROMPTLY
ON BUSINESS LINES

IN a written request OF tour or
more central committeeman OF the
democratic party. J. II. Morgan
chairman of party, convened the
committee in this city Saturday
afternoon for the purpose OF taking
some steps toward having the COM
mittee recognized by the state com
mittee.
On roll call it was ascertained
that q precincts were represented
hv committeeman and proxies,
Liberty and Teanaway being the
only precincts in the county not
represented.
F. c. Porter of West Kittitas,
Introduced a resolution declaring
the office of state central commit
teeman vacant. The resolution was
adopted. A. l.. Slcmmons was
elected to fill the position.
The grounds for the recall OF l..
r. Thomas was, in sum and sub
stance that he had over-ridden the
county central committee and had
assumed all power and authority IN
the matter of state and federal APP
pointments, by a resolution intro
duced by a committee of four, of
which committee he was member,
that no one could could receive the
appointment to any position unless
endorsed by the State committee
man from his county. This was
regarded as undemocratic and an
assumption of power unwarranted
and dcrogatory to the best interests
of the party 1t was not a person
al matter, but it was condemnation
of his official conduct and action.
c. S. Palmer rendered his resig-
nation as committeeman from the
first ward of Ellensburg which was
promptly accepted and on motion
J. d. Mathews was made his sue
cessor
Robert A. Turner, editor of The
Ellensburg Dawn, was endorsed
for the position of Postmaster of
Rllensburg.
John L. Baker of South Gle Ell
UNI, was endorsed for State Indus
trial Insurance Commissioner and
w. P. Hiddleson was endorsed
for Receiver of the United States
Land Office.
All previous endorsements made
by the committee were recalled, ex-
cept in cases where appointments
had been made.
A resolution was passed that
in all future meetings Of the body
l3 members constitute a quorum
for the transaction of business.

The Old Familiar Cry

The standpatter minority OH the
Ways and Means committee Of
Congress has presented the old
argument and raised the old cry
of alarm over the proposed tariff
revision bill.
There is no excuse for the rad
ical change in our revenue system
proposed by this Democratic bill "
says the report. The people have
not asked it.
On the contrary, the people
have asked it.. They asked it in
1908, and it was promised them by
the Republican party, and the
Payne Aldrich bill was the result.
The people showed their resent
ment in the congressional elections
in 1910 by turning the Republicans
out of the House of Congress and
in 1912 by giving the Democrats
complete control of the machinery
of the Federal government.
The report contends that the bill
has caused intense and wide
spread alarm in business circles.
There is less widespread alarm
in business circles" over the pro-
posed revision of the tariff than at
any time in many years when the
tariff was being considered. In
fact, there is no alarm, except
among some of the over-protected
interests that know the injustice of
their cause.
The standpatters are naturally
protesting, but they have little
heart in their work, because they
must know they are in the wrong,

Probably be Ready for Traffic by
Twentie eth.

The past week has seen the driv.
ing of all the piling on the approach
es to the new Payette river bridge
which gives to the farmers on the
bench a much better and closer route
into Payette. The work On the ap-
proaches should be finished by the
twentieth of this month and bridge
ready for traffic Just what arrange
ments will be made for the public
using it we have not learned. AS the
three Payette river bridges are in
one contract it is probable that the
commissioners will not accept any
of them until all are completed but
will no doubt make arrangements so
the much needed bridge can be used
by the people and the interests of
the county safeguarded at the same
time.
