run Down Every Rascal"
(Ellensburg Capital, Rep.)

Our industrial insurance scandal
Is one that any state might be
ashamed of. 1t is bad, very bad, and
makes honest men tremble for the
welfare of our splendid common
wealth when such things can develop
and reveal such dishonesty. So far
there seems to be lack of spirit in
running down the offenders, but IL
may be that the officials are dazed
by the magnitude and boldness of the
crime. They should hurry. however
and run down every rascal with a
hand in the dirty work.

"Bureau of Incompetency."

FRIDAY Harbor Journal, Rep)
The footing Of the industrial in
surance fund by crooks, either within
or without the commission, brings to
our mind the question:: "Why
wouldn't it be a good idea for the
bureau of supervision and inspection
of public Offices to begin their work
at home, before trying to find errors
in bookkeeping or shortages else
where over the state? This bureau
OF incompetency should add one or
two sleuths to its large force of in
spectors, and between them they
might be able to accomplish some
thing more than drawing their eight
dollars a day (Which, by the way, is
paid by the community being inspect
ed).

That State Board Of Accountancy..
(Hillyard News, Dem.)

The state board Of acountancy, or
inspection, has lost another feather
from its tail. Its record AZ an asset
to the state machinery is growing
worse all the time. Governor Lister
certainly hits the right expression
when he refers to It as "the state
board Of incompetency.' The board
didn't discover and check up Hill
yards losses from steal on the part
of city officials until two years after
the thing occurred. It didn't dis
cover the steals in Spokane county or
city until someone else found them.
And now there develops q big steal
from the industrial insurance depart
ment OF the state. which the board
didn't know thing about.
