YOUR OhN OPINICN-AND ANOTHER S.

Nov. IN this tille OF political stress, when many
things will be SAID and many things thought for
which there is no real foundation in fact when
many ISSUES Will be up for discussion and decision,
the temptation to say, GIVE got just as much
right to my opinion as you hayt to yours" will
grow strong along with the argument in which
person may be INDUCING. So perhaps it will be
good idea for some of us to keep in mind the
famous retort Harvey Scott made to man who
gave way to such temptation during a CONVEX
sation and prompted this remarkable editor to de-
clare:
''You have not. You speak from the stand
point of mere presumption and emotion, without
knowledge, without Judgment. You speak after
the manner of the foolish speak from the basis
of painstaking and laboriOus study You have no
right to an opinion on the subject; you have not
given yourself the labors which alone can justify
opinion. You do not even understand the funda-
mental facts upon which opinion should be
based. You say your opinion is good mine.
1t will be time enough for this boast when you
have brought to the subject teachable mind and
when you have mastered some of the elementary
facts
It may be that the other person to whom we
talking knows more about the subject than
do we-has studied it more and thought of it
more until his opinion is really an opinion and not
a guess. 1t might be well for us, in any event,
to proceed on that assumption until we know that
what ourselves saying or believing is
rightly founded and borne out by the facts.
Honest difference of opinion there is always
room for-but there is distinction between an
opinion and a guess

COUNTY OFFICIAL PfpEF
NON PART1sANsH1p IN COUNTY AFFAIRS

No matter whether you gree with Democratic
principles or not, no matter wh,thtr you believe
the Wilson administration is accomplishing what
you want it to accomplish or not there is one fea-
ture of the resolutions adopted at the convention
of Thurston county Democrats last Saturday that
strikes right home to YOU as a taxpayer, believer
In good governma mt and one who wants to good
government established and maintained for the
sake of your pockethook if for nothing else.
We refer particularly to that portion of the
resolutions, published elsewhere in this issue in
which county affairs discussed and in which
the convention, representative of all parts Of the
county declared: ''We believe the time has come
when all good citizens of Thurston county should
unite to Gust the present board of commissioners
and to defeat the slate of county officials agreed
upon by the old stand pat Republican machine.
To accomplish this we recommend the
appointment OF committee of five to devise way
to unite the opposition to the Republican machine,
so the friends of good government can unite in
one body to save this county from utter ruin
This is clarion call to all of you regardless
of party lines party preferences, join together
and throw off the burden which the county has
been and is carrying and will continue to carry
united action. So long as the opposition is divided
the machine" will win because the machine
is organized and knows what it can deliver, but
let the opposition unite in one compact body, de-
termined to overturn the present unsatisfactory
administration, and the days Of the machine
will be numbered.
So we come right back to what The Washing
ton Standard has been advocating ever since the
farmers special committee undertook the investi-
CATION Of the county 8 affairs-the formation of
non-partisan taxpayers league in this county
You must do it if you want relief because there
will be no change in policy administration until
there is change in control and the only way that
change in control can be made is for you to make
it.
The organization of such league has been
under way for time, but it has been progress
ing too slowly. Our advice to you is to stimulate
1T and that right soon-to see that it is organized
and made an efficient and determined force for
good gOvernment-to make it do what you know
you want it to do: establish a good, clean, eco
nomical administration of the county's affairs.

There was one particularly noticeable thing
