PRESS COMMENTS ON STATE GRAFT SCANDAL
WHAT THE WEEKLY NEWSPAPERS HAVE TO SAY aROrr THE
INDUSTRIAL INSURANCE COMMISSION AND THE
BUREAU INSPECTION

Republican Governor Mead's admin
lstration that there were Irregular.
ties in the accounts of the oil inspect
or's Office and when the scandal was
aired in the newspapers, the inspect
or was discharged and the matter
hushed up? Was it not under Re-
publican Governor McGraw's admin
istration that the warden of the state
penitentiary embezzled and commit
ted suicide upon discovery of his pee
ulations? We hope the thieves in the
present case will be caught and pun
ished, and the man who seems to be
at present under suspicion is a Re-
publican hold-over. But, Democrats
or Republicans. you can bet your last
dollar that Governor Ernest Lister
will see that all guilty parties are
prosecuted and punished if their guilt
can be established.

Trying to Get Lister.
(TacOma Forum. Ind)

That there is more politics in this
so-called industrial insurance probe
than there is graft, is we'll known to
the public, who read the daily papers
between the lines. The dailies Just
had to break Lister, and the only
weak spot in his armor, they con-
slider, is this so-called graft. The
Forum holds no brief to defend Gov.
Lister, but he's the best governor
that Washington has had in years,
and these lying, decrepit, time-serving
organs of special interest know it.
We believe that Lister has
appointed on that industrial insur-
ance commission three men whose
characters are absolutely above re-
proach. men who have lived spotless
lives and the finger of scorn or scan
DIAL has never pointed in their direc-
ton. OF course the Pr.
will harp for days on it's inuendos,
and by referring to the higher ups"
may cause some persons to become
befuddled, but sober-minded intelli-
gent people are going to require bet
ter reasons than this to damn Gov.
Lister, who, as we said before. has
given to this state mighty good ad-
ministration.

Either Inefficiency or . Farce.
(Aberdeen Herald, Ind.)

The Olympia Chamber of Com
merce is real peeved because that nest
of hooters at the state house has been
receiving considerable attention from
the newspapers. They "deplore the
stories published" and say they ARE
highly imaginative" Just go, burg
lar has not very high opinion of the
COP and the Judge who lands him in
the pen. There's just one way for
everybody at Olympia to clean their
skirts Of the dirty rascality and that
is to get busy and put the perpetra-
tors of the stealing in the pen, and II
the governor can be persuaded to
give a little time to attend to the du-
ties for which he was elected, and for
which he 10 paid, it will be appre-
ciated by a patient and very disgust
ed people.

Would ssFire'' Commissioners.
(Shelton Journal, Rep.)

There should have been prompt &C
ton at the outset. Perhaps the first
act should have been the firing" OF
the industrial commissioners them
selves, for carelessness and incom-
potency. If for nothing else. These
three men draw $4,000 each per
annum by virtue Of their position as
custodians of the industrial funds.
They have evidently been nothing but
figureheads, and considered they had
a sinecure; nor does 1t appear that
either have special qualifications for
the responsible positions they hold.
It is still up to Governor Lister to
clean out his industrial commission
and put men on the job big enough to
safeguard the millions which pass
under their control.

Inc Biggest Joke of All.
(Kent Journal. REM

The big scandal that broke loose
last week in connection with the loot
Ing OF the state industrial insurance
1und has thrown Olympia and some
OF the Sound cities into a turmoil. No
one seems to know anything definite
ly, and rumors come thick and fast.
mainly as to the amount illegally Sc
cured. The estimate varies all the
way from $4,000 to $4,000. If the
amount was but SIS it would not
change the status of the case, and we
would favor placing the whole ma
ch1nery of the state at work to bring
the guilty ones to book. We are of
the opinion that someone will be the

while the big offenders will escape.
The more we seek of the working out
of commissions" the less we are i'm
pressed with their value, but the
placing of the state board of account
ancy on the job now to find out how
much is missing is the biggest joke
of all! Seems to us this board would
have been better employed in discov-
ering this graft. than running about
the state finding 74-cent errors in the
books of some city clerk.
