BURTON AND PANAMA TOLLS.

Maybe the business men of Seattle and the
people throughout the state who read the reports
of the Speech can the other side Of the
Panama canal tolls question, the side that Wilson
and his administration took after considering the
recognized and established policy Of this nation
as the result of the frank and pointed speech of
former Senator Burton of Ohio at banquet re-
Gently given him by the Seattle Chamber of Com

the subject of canal tolls is quoted elsewhere in

publican party in the United States and likely
candidate for president, and he refers to that

espoused and successfully put through by Presi-

A GRAFT THAT'S A DANDY.

When you go into store to buy pound of
meat a sack of crackers, you pay for that pound
of meat or the sack of crackers and the merchant
phone office to buy the use of telephone and
telephone service, you not only have to pay for
that service but you also have to put up a FIVE
dollar deposit, which the company holds for
year. pays you six per cent on it and then returns
it. To person on the sidelines, in other words,
to one who has to put up that five dollars, the
scheme appears to be the dandiest little graft
imaginable, without one solitary excuse for exist
ence other than that the telephone companies can
"get away with it..
When you borrow money from a bank, trustee
individual, the established rate Of interest on
this coast is eight per cent, yet the telephone COM
pany pays you only six per cent on the five-doar
deposit, clear gain Of two per cent. That scheme
OF financing their business for that is all it is, is
wonderful, when you stop to think of the thou
sands and thousands of phones in operation, and
the hundreds and hundreds of changes for which
the grated customer has to pay five dollars So
rigid is the rule grasping is the desire of the
telephone monopoly, that person cannot
have the phone changed from one name to another.
without even suspicion of mechanical work or
expense being involved, without planking down
the said FIVE dollars.
1t is high time the graft is stopped 1t is out
rageous, unreasonable and smells of the old days
of corporation ''hold-ups" when the "public be
damned policy ruled all of them 1t is now being
Investigated by the public service commission
and the commission should abolish it.

WHAT OUR FATHERS READ ABOUT :
IN THIS PAPER FIFTY YEARS AGO :

From The Washington Standard for
August 10, 1865. Vol. v. No. Al.
The lingering hope entertained for
the lives of the missing passengers
on the Inflated Brother Jonathan"
has at last fed. Seventeen days have
elapsed since the sad event and we
are forced to believe that no more on
earth will meet those who but a few
weeks ago embarked upon that voy-
age, bouyant with hope and the
promise of length of years upon
earth. Among those we'll known to
many of our people was DR.. A. G.
Henry, surveyor general of the ter
ritory. He was returning from a
somewhat protracted visit to the ma
tional capital, where he had been an
honored guest at the White House.
Captain Johnson of Shoalwater bay
informs us of horrible affair which
occurred at Gray's Harbor last week.
The Indian chief, Tenamas, went to
the cabin of white man named John
Dickson to settle some cause for dis
satisfaction between them when he
was stabbed by Dickson through the
heart. Afterwards certain Indians,
relatives of the fallen chief, caught
Dickson, tied his hands and feet and,
placing bar of wood across his
neck, choked him to death.
Twenty-six whaling vessels have
been burned in the Arctic seas by
the Shenandoah" and two bonded.
Ten other whalers are reported as
having left the fishing grounds to
|avoid the pirate.
The annual conference of the
Methodist Episcopal church closed it's
labors on Tuesday last, having been
lin session nearly a week. The next
session will convent at Albany. Ore.
There are 10 sawmills on Puget
Sound, capable of turning out 100000
feet of lumber daily. Besides these
there are five smaller mills.
The passage from Portland to Sac
ramento by stage has been reduced
to $50. Passengers stop three nights
on the route and go through in six
days.
The st. Johns church in this place
is nearly completed and is quite an
ornament to our town.

The farmers of the county, acting comparatively
through their respective subordinate Oranges and
through the county Pomona, and individually on
their own responsibility and resources have given
the Thurston County Fair scheduled to be held
here October II to 16 mighty boost forward, and
it is up to the rest of to pitch in and help the
good work along. Thurston county needs such an
exhibition as this of it's products and resources
and needs it every year if for nothing else than to
show ourselves what can do and in the showing
give impetus to the agricultural development of
our territory. We will have it, too if the fair
materializes with the same enthusiasm and worth
with which the preliminary work is being under
taken

And now try to make your gHesses
as to the outcome of the city series.
The dope is being rapidly shot full of
holes and the finish will be a mad
scramble.
Rowland has used his two best
pitching bets, Scott and Benz, and
each was easy for the National league
batsmen. Russell and Cicotte, the
relief men, were effective. The way
the pitchers have been worked means
that Faber will face the Cubs today,
with probably Russell taking the hill
tomorrow. ...
Faber is not as steady as either
Scott or Benz. He is liable to be very
good or very bad. Throughout the
season the Cascade wonder has had
no middle course, and his work in the
closing stages Of the season was not
up to the mark he set in the first days
of the campaign.
Bresnahan must find man capable
of pitching effectively today. If he
does his troubles will be lightened, for
it is reasonable to presume that Jim
Vaughn will come back tomorrow on
the West Side in the fourth game,
with Lavender back at the Sox Sun
day. And Vaughn will hardly be hit
so viciously the next time he starts
against the Rowlandites. .
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1915-10-08

curaLely forecast the Work OF the
pitchers. Extremely cold weather will
have its effect on every member of
both squads, Rowland's people being
especially poor football season per-
formers. And the cold may mean
chance for Karl Adams, the West Side
rookie, whose youthful arm does not
need as much warmth as do the fins
of the veterans.
From a financial standpoint this
will be the poorest city series the
athletes have encountered for sew
eral seasons. Only 24,724 fans have
attended the two games, over 5000
fewer than watched the first pair of
battles last year. And the financial
return is $4,000 less than it was in
1914.
Yesterday was no day for baseball.
The game should have been post
poned until the sun could get in it's
warming work. But President Bar
row of the International league, han
ding the series for the national COM
mission, says nothing but rain or
snow will force the cancellation of a
game.
Some of the players were wroth at
the officials for forcing them to per-
form yesterday. You know, the ath-
letes share only in the receipts of the
first four games. Their chance to
make any money will expire Satur-
day night, if no postponements occur.
This leaves the big Sunday crowd to
nonr it's coin into the Golfers of the
clubs. f%HSHSs
There were hints that this fact had
decided the owners not to allow any
postponements. Something is rad
ically wrong when only 5,211 people
attend a city series game while the
battling is at its tightest.
As to the actual work of the ath-
letes, it was all Jimmy Lavender, the
West Side Spitballer. He was in per-
feet form and had the heavy left
handed Sox batters completely baf-
