TO The VOTERS OF THURST0N COUNTY

In circular No. / we said "We will show the
people OF this county, /. That the Republican
voter is not free to compete for Office or employ
ment, or to vote as he would choose, because a
ring selects the candidates. and parcels out the
offices and jobs for it's own purposes, and to men
OF it's own selection" Now see how it is done:
Jones files for nomination on the Republi-
can ticket-pays filing fee, and makes cam
paign in good faith, believing that the game is
open under the primary law. He learns late in
the campaign that word has gone out to "the or
ganization" to get Smith nominated. Jones
never had chance for nomination.
Brown selects Black for job under him.
The Man higher up says Black won't do-the
job is to go to White who is a cog in the wheel of
the party machine.
Mary applies for a job checking petitions at
the State house; she is told to see the 'Man High
er Up in Thurston county; she doesn't get the
job, though efficient, because her parents do not
vote right.
Jones files for office on the Republican tick
ct; he is not one of the ring but seems likely to
get large vote; the Organization procures the
filing of another candidate, who will cut the vote
OF Jones in two and thereby secure the nominal
ton of the Organization man."
Brown, Jones and Smith are suggested as
road supervisors by the district good roads asso-
Citations; White Black and Green are named by
the Commissioners, over the protest Of the Asso-
Citations. The law says the Commissioners shall
select from the lists submitted by the good roads
association but the trouble was the selections Of
the associations We're not ring men, They
wouldn't do.

Don't be fooled, Mr.. Voter. The direct pri-
mary is all right but it has not yet given the peo
pie control Of nominations It's up to you to be
awake if you are to be in the saddle. If you are
not, there are certain self-constituted guardians
of the affairs of state who will do your selecting
of officers for you. Every one of the examples
cited above is true-with fictitious names substi-
tuted for the real ones
Do you think you can bid on a bridge-blild-
ing job? You can't, for bids are never adverts-
County Engineer. Only the favored know of the
job till the contract has been let.
Do you think you are free to bid on a road
job, and that the people have the benefit Of com
petition among bidders? There is no bidding,
and there is no competitions for the work is not
done that way. Day labor, under the personal
supervision of the Commissioners, is better (for
the party organization) and it gets 81 90 per day
for each Of the Commissioners. Of course it costs
the county more but the taxpayer loves his party,
and doesn' It see the inside anyway.
Are these things right? No. they are Just
politics. But aren't some of these methods lille
GAL as well as wasteful? Yes. Where is the
County Attorney? He says he has nothing to do
with such matters-that they are none of his bust
ness, though the laws make him the legal advisor
Of all the county officers But for him to mix in
would be bad politics.
Too much politics-that' the trouble Put
out those whose first duty is to themselves and the
party ring, and who are protected by ring; put
in those who rely on merit and merit alone to get
Office and retain it.

London Thinks Head of
Big Bank Is GiOing Too
Much Aid To Germans

London. Eng, Dec. 12.-Is Bngland's
financial world to experience a sensa-
tional retirement as has ~England's
navy? The prospects are excellent that
Felix Schuster, chairman of the London
bankers n governor of the Union Of
London and Smiths bank, and regarded
as the mOuthpiece of the banking
world, will prefer to sever his connec-
tions with the business community
rather than continue to bear the bur
den of undeserved abuse.
In his way, Sir Felix Schuster Is as
dominant a figure as was prince Louis
Of B~attenberg. But he is the victim OF
the same unreasonable prejudice when
compelled England's first sea lord to
retire. There is an intense irritation
felt by manufacturers throughout the
country at the restrictive banking
credit which has hampered trading op-
erations since the outbreak of the war.
The course Of events during the past
three months has left on the pubic
mind an indelible impression that the
policy Of the great financial lnstitu-
tons is largely in the hands Of bank-
| ers and merchants of German origin.
They believe that the gold when

Schools Already Established in Egypt; English
Churchgoers Protest Against the Con

Moslem hatred of Christian effort
among n generations and OF the
Sunnis of Islamism, is somewhat less
bitter than formerly.
Leaders report that this United PrSs-

a university at Cairo, built by Ameri-
can money and on Christian lines IN
every part, is one phase of a general
American educational project tnaL
would establish Christian universities
at three other strategic centers OF IN

ters are Calcutta, Pekin and Mania,
and behind these other projects are
Presbyterians-the larger bodies norln
and south, not merely the small united
body, the CongregatiOnalists, Baptlsts
and Methodists. Toxic has been IN
cluded in some of the plans as a world
student center. To some extent EngIlsh
missionary societies are reckoned on
for help, or were before the war, and
in all Of the centers foundation work
has already been begun, all OF these
bodies cooperating. Another phase OF
the world plan to insist upon Christian
teaching in higher education is the
support Of the University of the South
by Episcopalians, and that OF the new
Atlanta university by Methodlsts south'
The same plan for Christian tounda-
ton is underneath the Cairo, Calcutta,

TEN Y. VI. c. A. BUILDINGS
ERECTED DURING YEAR

During the year now near ending ten
new Y. NJ. c.. A. buildings have been
erected, six of them in South Carolina
alone, by private firms employing
many men. The expense has been
borne in every case by the firms or
companies. not by associations, yet
they are conducted strictly upon assO-
citation lines, most Of them by secreta-
Ties furnished by associations. one Of
the largest is in the Ford works at De-
trOit, another is at Gary, Ind, but by
the judge who is at the head of the
steel works there, and another at the
steel works at South Behlehem. No
fewer than 80 secretaries are furnished
by associations. 1t is found that, once
provided. men who use these buildings
pay more than half of the expense to
maintain them, so great is the appreCi-
alton of their worth.
Associations, in part in connection
with these private association build
ings, have created travelling instructing
forces, chiefly on Industrial lines
Trained men go from city to city
teaching men in these Industrial plants
how to work efficiently. The plan gets
much work done on small outlay
Taught how, employees in these mills
put through clean up campaigns, con-
duct savings funds, take up tuberculO-
sis prevention work, and accomplish
much in the a of teaching English
american history and civics to foreign
bbfn.

BAPTISTs PLAN GREATER
EFFICIENCY IN FOREIGN WOl


Rev. DR.. J. H. Franklin, one of the
secretaries of the Baptist board Of for
eign missions, is hurrying to China on
important business connected with
Baptist work there, and with the new
policy of this board, which is one OF
concentration and strengthening of eX-
isting work. For 100 years its policy
has been extension. The campaign now
closing. by which Baptists seek to pay
off their missionary debts of $275,0OO
without interfering with regular in
come, is within a month OF closing,
with the entire sum raised save only
$4,000. Members Of this board report
that while many of their plans are up
set by the war, they find Baptists gem
orally more responsive to appeals than
anv of them can remember, and giving
literally to uplift causes Of all sorts.
An important meeting of Baptist
leaders has just been held in Cleveland,
consisting Of some 30 or more secreta-
ries Of state conventions, following
conferences of leaders in every depart
ment of Baptist work. The purposes
among others, is greater efficiency in
missionary management, home and for
eign. and indeed of all Baptist business
affairs. Similarly, the board Of mis-
sionary preparation, which represents
all mission boards in America engaged
in foreign work, has just adjourned an
efficiency convention. A part Of this
convention was the meeting Of leaders
in colleges, seeing to it that better
trained men are going to foreign fields
About SIS, OO0, 900 a year is spent. by
Americans in these fields, n the cry
of greater results under better meth
DDS is heard, as in industrial lines.

MENDEs SUGGESTS THREE
GREAT TASKS FOR AN7E

49, SAG
Rev. DR.. H. Pereira Mendes, president
Of the Union of Orthodox Jewish con-
gregatiOns, a national body, issues an
open letter to the clergy of the United
States-CathOlic, Protestant, Eastern
and Jew-in which he suggests three
great tasks Immediately ahead. These
three he considers it to be the duty of
the clergy to lead in, and describes
them as stirring America to defend
Americas honor, to educate American
opinion in the direction of an appeal to
reason instead of force in regard to the
present var and for the prevention Of
another war, and preparation for the
moment when, in the crisis Of his
great war, religion must. as he thinks,
speak words when religion simply must
not and cannot be dumb.
Dr. Mendes argues that the United
States, having signed certain of The
Hague agreements, must insist that
they be kept or sacrifice its own honor.
He urges that at this Christmas time
all Catholic and Protestant clergy
drape their affairs in black and preach
on the text, Jesus Wept." He declares
that were he a Christian minister he
would do these things. He calls upon
ministers of every name to act. on
chambers of commerce, on labor organ
izations, on fraternal orders, colleges
and ~seminaries, and the women to act.
