A WEAK DEFENSE
WIN. GOODYEAR.

On another page of this issue is
published communication from J.
Floyd Tiff Of Colfax, who signs him
self chairman of the Whitman county
directing committee of the Stop
Look-Listen league. 1t purports
to be reply to an article which
wrote regarding the league, but is in
fact a general defense of that or
ganization and special pleading for
the fish magnates. Most of it is If
relevant, incompetent and immater-
iai, but there are few points which
require a little discussion.
1. Mr.. Tiff says The Stop
Look-Listen league EN- bodies the
development of an idea that origi-
mated at the time the initiative and
referendum were adopted"
This is doubtless true, and nat
urally the idea originated in the fer
tile brains of gentlemen, like Repre-
sentative Sims, who fought direct
legislation to the last ditch and,
when the system was adopted, began
to devise schemes with which to de-
feat its use by the people and hit
upon the plan of organizing the Stop
-Look-Listen league.
2. Mr.. Tiff denies my assertion
that there is an alliance between the
liquor dealers, the fish trust, the I'M
! scrupulous promoters of wildcat
schemes, the selfish employers OF
labor, the grating employment
agencies, the machine politicians and
the enemies of direct legislation.
now call Mr.. Tiff as a witness to
prove the truth of that statement
! In a signed ommunication to the
Spokane Spok esman-Review, pub
lished last Monday, May IS, he said
Certainly the Stop-LOOk-LIs
ten league is spending money to edu'
cate the farmers and taxpayers to
the necessity of knowing what are in
the "Seven Sisters and other initia.
tive measures before signing petI'
tiOns. This money is contributed by
EVERY BUSINESS INTEREST Al
FECTED BY ANY OF THE INITI'
ATIVE MEASURES NOW BEFORE
THE TAXPAYERS AND VOTERS
OF THE STATE"
Thank you, Mr.. Tiff, for that
frank and guileless confession. The
liquor dealers are considerably af
fected by one of the initiative meas
ures now before the people. ! ad-
vised my readers to LOOK for this
alliance between the interests above

lieves that there is an exact parallel
between the wheat raising and fish
ing industries just let him go into
some of the fields around Colfax and
help himself to mess of wheat, as
lie would go out and catch mess of
fish, and he will soon be given an
opportunity to reason out the differ
ence in the solitude of the county
jail
9. Mr.. Taft asserts that the eff
feet OF this bill will simply be to
drive the bulk OF the fishing industry
out of Washington into British CO.
lumbia. He fails to explain how the
salmon will be induced to so into
British Columbia waters instead of
returning to spawn in the waters
where they were born. He fails to
mention the fact that canned salmon
is taxed by Canadian law. He fails
to refer to the tax levied by the gov.
ernment Of British Columbia upon
the fishing industry.
Mr.. Tifft's whole communication
sounds like the prospectus of gold
brick mining scheme and has decid-
ed odor of fish oil.
