LISTER APPEALS TO STATE

OLYMPIA,-Be fair
trial for the prohibition bill and
cessation of liquor agitation in the
future, Governora Lister has issued
the following appeal to citizens of
the state:
"The election returns indicate
that the prohibition measure has re-
ceived majority of not less Than
$1,000. Regarding the effect on tn
state as Il result of the adoption of
the bill, as l view the matter it will
be just what the people of the state
make it, We believe in the rule of
the majority. A majority of the
voters of the state have declared in
favor of the measure. If all will
now accept the decision of the maj
ority, lend a hand in seeing the law
enforced and direct our energies TO
those things which will build up
and develop the state, rather than
predicting dire disaster as result
of the measure becoming a law. we
will materially assist in quickly
bringing about the Encouragement
necessary on account of its adoption
Il believe its opponents will a.
gree with me when l say that bus
Iness will be injured much more by
constant agitation against the law
now it has passed, than by ;.ccept-
ing ii and directing our energies 10
proper development under the rev
order of things brought about by its
passage.
While there were differences of
opinion expressed by ATTORNEYS n-jor
To election regarding the date the
measure would become operative The
Intention is shown in the following
language OF the bill This act shall
take effect and be in full force and
effect from and after the first day
of January, 1916 l believe with
language so clear, in measure
voted upon by the people of the
state, this will be held to be
the law"

ASKS FOR AID FOR BELCIANS

In his annual Thanksgiving Day
Proclamation, Governor Lister calls
especial attention to the needs Of
European war sufferers, stating:
1--WE have still further reason for
rejoicing in the knowledge that
Gods graciousness has given us abil
ity TO render practical aid 10 those
who have been less fortunate than
We. With the feeling that truly
1t is more blessed TO give than 20
receive we should share from our
bursting graneries and laden cellars
with those on whom war has lain =
heavy hand, taking away complete
ly their ability to provide for them
selves.
1--WE, through the wisdom OF
those to whom the guidance of our
country's welfare is entrusted, have
been spared the horrors. heart pangs
and desolation brought about by
armed conflict. Verify, never was
there a time when, as people, We
have had greater cause for giving
thanks TO our Creator than today"
In addition the governor has ass-
ued special appeal for help for
Belgian war sufferers. Donations OF
foodstuffs,. particularly cereals, ham,
and bacon are needed and should
be forwarded to Belgium Relief
Committee. care New Chamber Of
Commerce. Seattle, Wash. This or
ganization. through cooperation Of
railroads, will be able to deliver do
nations promptly to the Atlantic
seaboard where they will be taken
charge by the American Relief
Committee for Belgium.

COUNCIL WILL ACT
TO PROTECT PAVING

TO protect Lynden's new asphalt
paving, the council will consider to-
morrow night an ordinance designed
TO Feep heavily loaded wagons and
automobiles from damaging it.
The ordinance will establish
maximum load that may be carried
on the pavement, and will include
teams that scatter sand and dirt, on
the black list. Automobiles that are
allowed to stand with gasoline drip
ping may also be covered. as gaso-
line softens the asphalt.
The council will also consider the
question of cleaning the pavement,
and will decide whether to maintain
the present system or put in a new
one.
Mayor P. A. Oakes said this morn
ing that provision would be made
to put the streets in shape that had
been badly cut UP during the lime
of paving. A drag will be used
for this purpose.

WILL GIVE SCHOLARS
MEDICAL INSPECTION

Medical inspection of children in
the Lynden Schools who are inclin-
ed to be backward was started this
week by Superintendent P. A. Wright
The poor work Of fifty per. cent
of the sixteen children examined
Tuesday was found to be due to
weak eyes, or the presence of ade-
noids which prevented proper brea-
thing.
DIR. F. l.. Wood made the exam
nations without charge to the School
Board and will continue until
every scholar has been given a phys
ical inspection. DR.. Charles Mcleod
has also volunteered to examine the
teeth of the children later.
THE Importance of this medical
inspection cannot be overestimated,
said Superintendent Wright yester-
day. 1T will enable US to find
those who have been backward be-
cause of some slight physical defect,
and to assist in correcting this. We
advise the parents to see that the
child gets medical treatment. Should
they, however, be unable to stand
the expense, the school board will
probably make arrangements for the
physicians services"
The Lynden tribune. [volume] (Lynden, Wash.) 1908-current, 1914-11-19

and inspect the property and then
go away with no conception of its
true value. In most instances the
assessment on such properties is
made by the officers of the compan-
les themselves for the reason that
the value that the assessor must
place on them must be based on the
cost of plants installed. The own
er or manager will be ready to show
great depreciation from first cost
until, at the end of few years,
such properties are assessed at a
very nominal figure even though
earning returns on a much higher
valuation.
A few simple illustrations of our
own experience will suffice to show
how the different factors that We
have mentioned enter into the ques-
tion of a uniform assessment of pro-
perty. AT recent meeting of the
assessors of this state one
assessor admitted that he was valu-
ing lumber mills and similar con-
Germs in his county at much less than
their actual value, as compared with
other property, for the reason that
if he assessed them at the same pro-
portion of their true value that he
assessed the property of merchants
farmers and home owners, such con-
Germs would leave his county and go
to an adjoining county where the
assessment would be made at low
er rate and where possibly the tax
levies are lower.
Another assessor admitted that he
was assessing steamboats, at very
small percentage of their true val
uation for the reason that IL he did
not do SO. the manager Of the steam
boat company would change his
place of business to another county
where concessions would be made
him. Still another assessor admit
ed that he was assessing sheep 1T
fifty cents the head less than the
assessor in the adjoining county for
the purpose of inducing the owners
of migratory bands of sheep to list
them in his county. Still another
system of evading the uniform pro-
vision was ingeniously adopted by
one of our assessors. He instructed
his deputies to list all old automo-
biles as wagons and all old ihresh-
ing machines as headers and binders
thereby reducing the number OF such
valuable machines and keeping up
the average value, in order that his
abstract of assessment might show
high average value on each item
to the State Board of Equalization.
These are instances in direct vio-
lation of the constitutional man
date to assess all property at uni
form percentage of its true value.
Instances of this kind might be null
tiplied. but we feel that those cited
are sufficient to show the iniqui-
ties of a system which not only puts
a premium on individual dishonesty
but which tends to corrupt pupllc
officials as well.

THE NEW CONGRESS

1t Is an interesting and ironic fact
that the men who formed the intel
lectual strength of the standpat
crowd are not the ones who were
returned to power at the recent elec-
tion. The ones who canie back are
the riots and spots" TO borrow "A
phrase from the egg trade. Aldrich,
Murray Crane, Hale and Frye OF
Maine, Kean of New Jersey, Taw-
ney, Root. and Burton are out OF
public life. Kean died a few days
after the election. Root of New
York and Burton of Ohio declined
to run for reelection because they
believed that in the state of the pub
lie mind, and with the new systew OF
electing Senators by direct vote
they could not succeed. AS it turns
out, they would have been elected
enthusiastically, and with backing
that would have given them great
power in the new senate.
If the Republican leaders who
have been returned think they can
act with their .old-time arrogance,
they are wrong. The people may
have tired of the tumult, but The
tumult has had its effect. Some
things are crystalllzed, never 10
change. If the people look with al
most friendly tolerance on Cannon 8
return, it is largely because they
know his power is gone. The gen.
eral adoption of the direct primary
has made the recall of displeasing
public man more easy. The direct
election of Senators works the same
way. In other words, the check on
public officials is stronger ihsn
what it was when Cannon was in h'i
prime. Certain things which CAN
.ion held back for twenty years are
now in existance and will not be un-
done-the parcel post, the postal
savings bank, direct election of SEN
,tors and many Others. -Colliers

STORY OF A FAMOUS HYMN.

Not one in thousand who sings
the old hymn, "Blest Be The Tie
That Binds" knows its history. II
was written by the Rev. John Faw-
cett, who, in the Eighteenth century
was the pastor in a poor little chur-
eli in Yorkshire, England.
In 1872 he felt obliged to accept
call to London church. His
farewell sermon had been preached
six wagons loaded with furniture ant
books stood by the door. His con-
gregation. men, women and children
were in agony of tears.
Looking up Mrs. Fawcett said:
"Oh, John, John, / cannot bear
this! / know not where We go.
"Nor l." said he, nor will We go
Unload the wagons and put every
thing back"
His letter of acceptance was re-
called, and he wrote this hymn tc
commemorate the episode.

SOME DEFINITIONS OF HoLLANI

SOHC D~r AANA lOANo Vt l1OLLAIND
Whoever looks for the first time
at a large map of Holland wonders
that a country so constituted can
continue to exist. At the first glance
1t is difficult to see whether land
or water predominates, or whether
Holland belongs most to the contin-
ent or the sea. Those broken ard
compressed coasts, those deep bays,
those great rivers that, losing the
aspect of rivers, seem bringing new
seas to the sea: that sea which.
changing itself into rivers. pene-
trates the land and breaks it into
archipelagoes; the lakes, the vast
morasses, the canals crossing and re.
crossing each other, all combine 10
give the idea of a country that may
at any moment disintegrate and dis
appear
What sort of a country Holland
is has been told by many in few
words.
Napoleon said it was an alluvion
of French rivers-the Rhine. the
Scheldt and the Meuse-and with
this pretext he added 1t to the En-
pire. One writer has defined it as
sort OF transition between land
and sea. Another as an immense
crust of earth floating on the water.
Others. an annex of the old contin-
ent, the China of Europe, the end of
the earth and the beginning of the
ocean, a measureless raft of mud
and sand.
But they are agreed upon one
point, and all expressed it in the
same words Holland is a conquest
made by man over the sea: 1t is an
artificial country; the Hollanders
made it; it exists because the Holi-
anders preserve it; it will vanish
whenever the Hollanders shall aban-
don it.-From Holland and its Peo-
ple," by Edmondo De Amicis.
