BRODECK & DAY

The city of Everett enjoys almost
every conceivable advantage in trade
ideas, but the establishment of the
firm of Brodeck & Day marks fact
of significance, in that the store and
it's stock gives decided class" to the
many that are already in operation.
The firm specialize in gents furnish
ings, the stock of which embraces
quality and price, and consists of the
best known brands on the market.
Nothing about the store bears
"shoddy" appearance, from polite and
courteous attendance to the wants of
patrons down to the least desired
article wanted. Everything in the
gents furnishing line is found in the
store, a detailed mention of which
is hardly necessary. Those who de-
sire the best to be secured at salts
factory prices are commended to give
the store of Brodeck & Day a trial,
the idea being convincing that they
will surely get good results and be-
come patrons of the establishment

venient, being at 1917 Hewitt avenue,

THOMAS D. DAVIES
Assessors of Snohomish County.

Assessors of Snohomish County.
The duties of assessing property in
a satisfactory manner are of the most
exacting character wherein so many
features are involved-both of reason
and unreason-that he assessor who
performs his duties efficiently and
with regard to the rights of the public
certainly should be entitled to distinct
recognition and acknowledgement of
his merit. Taking these facts into
consideration, it is worthy of note that
Assessor Davies has performed his
duties with satisfaction and with that
sense of his obligation due TO good
citizenship. Mr. Davies halls from
Marysville, his home city, but the
entire county also lays claim to the
idea that he belongs to it, as he GER
tainly knows every one resident in
that section of the state. His friends
embrace all classes of the community,
who have always taken a friendly in
terest in his public life and the duties
and responsibilities of his office.

THE MAIZE CAFE
A High-Class Restaurant That Com
bines Price With Quality
of Ceruire

of Service.
Among the many restaurants Or
cafes that abound in Everett prestige
attaches to mention of The Maize"
on account of it's high-class character,
where those who prefer the best that
can be secured in the "eatable" line
can do so. "The Maize" is popular
because it combines service with
price. Service, after all, is one of
the most desirable factors in the con-
duct of cafes, and certainly those who
patronize THE Maize" can get this in
every desired quantity. The place is
representative of cleanliness and good
service to a high degree, and owes it's
large patronage to this fact particu-
larly, besides the fact that everything
served is of superior character. "The
Maize" is managed by Mr.. c. A.
Schlettwein, a gentleman who knows
the many desired wants of the trade.
ard who in every particular strives to
give just that service which Is appre-
ciated by the people of Everett at
large. Depression In trade matters or
the hlgh cost of products necessary in
the conduct of a first-class restaurant
or cafe have had no effect in raising
the prices of meals at the Maize"
It still nlaithains the standard OF
prices on which II was founded, and,
if anything, has improved It's service
in every way. Mr.. SchlettWein has
always accorded his employees the JUS.
tice and fair dealing which their
duties demanded, besides in every way
recognizing their opinions and fealry
toward the cause of unionism. The
Maize deserves the patronage of work
ing men and women for this reason
alone, if not for the good and valued
reason that the service and meals are
of high class character and call for
trade recognition. Mr.. Schlettwein
should be accorded that cooperative
support from all classes of society in
Everett, because his concern is of
representative character and reflects
the fact of being promoted in an eff
cient and praiseworthy manner. The
location is one of the most central
and convenient, being at 1908 Hewitt
avenue.

MAE WETHERBEE
Auditor of Snohomish County.


The efficient manner in which Miss
Mae Weatherbee has conducted the
affairs of the auditors office since
her incumbency is an acknowledge
ment of the idea that a woman's
sphere is not necessarily confined to
home duties-as claimed by many
persons-but rather emphasizes the
fact of her general usefulness in pub
lie life and entitled to the same rec
ognition and promotion at the hands
of the people as ordinary man.
Auditor Weatherbee served as clerk
to the county auditor for many years,
and displayed such a keen sense of
her duties that in the natural order
of things she was selected when the
time arrived to fill a vacancy in the
office. She has more than made
good" inaugurated many features of
attractiveness in the conduct of the
office, and certainly has given that
satisfaction which is founded on the
fact that no complaints have ever been
heard regarding her administration.
/ Auditor Weatherbee was elected to
the position irrespective of party
lines--so naturally she may be con-
sidered the peoples choice.

The election returns from the var

thing bearing the Democratic label.

governed by parties, and the voters
continue to hold parties responsible

enemies OF its theories of running

reckless of consequences.

policy of oppression and persecution
followed by a Democratic State ad

why the Republicans got together
sooner in st. Louis than anywhere
else. But the vote Tuesday was
still larger than in April 1918. The
majority. not plurality, was unpre-

buting causes. but thoughtful men
of all parties admit that national is

fused to do anything that would
comfort the Democratic party. There
were many causes for the low vote
for the Democratic ticket in Chicago,
but an analysis OF the returns for
ces the conviction that the unpopular
ity of the Democratic national ad-

in that hotbed of Democracy. When

of near Harrisburg, Pa, who arrived
in Baltimore a few days ago, and
who, for just two hours. were the
guests Of Mrs. C.. c. Webber, wife OF
the pastor of Emmanuel Evangelical
Church. Greene street, near Lombard.
In the 1wenty-four months they have
been away the young married couple
have Iraversed the parched sands of
the semitropical countries of the

paths IF the Far Western States.
They are happy and have returned

long nike they have been presented
with q large sum of money by a
brother-in-law of Mrs. Broxman in
California. and henceforth they will
make their home on a farm which
has been purchased by the bride
groom near Harrisburg.
Mr.. and Mrs. Broxman strolled in
10 Baltimore unnoticed and sought
acqugintances whom they had known
years ago. In their search for their
friends they drifted in the neighbor-
hood Of Greene and Lombard streets
and dropped into the parsonage of
the Emmanuel Evangelical Church
in order to get directions as to
s--eets and house numbers. Mrs.
Weber happened to be at home and
invited the strangers in. She could
not aid them in their quest for the
Baltimore friends. but she did enter
tain them the greater part of the
afternoon, and while enjoying the
hospitality of her home the young
people told of their unique honey
moon trip.
MY and Mrs. Broxman were mar
ried two years ago and had planned
10 spend their honeymoon quietly
in the East. But Mrs. Broxman's
brother-in-law in Santa Anna, Cal,
told them that he would present them
