fee was properly cut down. We could
60 on and give instance after instance,
similar TO the above, where the claims
OF attorneys in probate matters have
been cut down in the past eight years
by VIM. A. Grimshaw. This accounts
in very large measure for the opposi-
ton to Judge Grimshaw among some
OF the members OF the Chelsn county
bar. A lawyer dearly loves a fat fee,
and hates like sin to have it pruned
down.
We do not ask anybody to take oul
word for the statements made above.
If you, Mr.. Man. or Mrs. Woman, who
may sometime be interested in whether
a lawyer or Judge sits on the superior
court bench in Chelan county, want to
see the best evidence, go to the court
house when in Wenatchee and look
over the record. You will find some
things there OF which we nave not here
written.

Initiative and Referendum Measures

Because ofthe confusion growing out
OF the referendum measures. seven of
them, two initiative measures, No. 10,
known as the hotel liquor bill, and No.
"a, known as the brewery bill, and one
constitutional amendment, all to be
voted on by the men and women OF
Washington on the 7th OF November,
we proposes to here give our reasons
why the voter, to be on the safe side,
should 60 down the line against all OF
them. OF the fate of the two bills
affecting the sale of liquor there is abb
solutely no question. They will both
be overwhelmingly defeated. We have
talked to hundreds Of men, many who
had two years ago voted against putting
restrictions on the sale OF liquor, who
are now openly and avowedly in favor
Of enforcing the law against the sale Of
liquor, and are even in favor of making
the law more effective, if possible.
The reason for this need not here be
discussed. It will suffice to say that
this sentiment prevails quite generally.
The working of the law and its benefits
to the communities in general, are so
apparent that they are rarely denied.
Referendum No. provides for the
budget system, and is really meritor-
ious law and could be adopted with a
saving to the taxpayers. but if we were
to advocate its support it might lead to
confusion, there are so many other
referendum measures, seven in all,
most Of them bad, that the voter might
get confused and vote for the wrong
one. The safest course is vote against
all OF them. There is also a constitu-
tional amendment to be voted on. We
approve OF the amendment. 1t is right
in principle. 1t restricts the right Of
franchise, when the proposition to be
decided by vote involves the expendi-
ture of money to be raised by taxation,
to taxpayers. Why should not those
who have to pay the bill have the right
to say when and how money shall be
spent.
With this parting injunction to the
voters, as we do not again expect to
refer to the matter in this campaign,
to be on the safe side, vote against any
and all initiative and referendum meas
ures and the constitutional amendment.

Beware of Eleventh Hour Stories

1t is not an unusual thing during a
hot political campaign for some candi-
date to hold back until the last hour
discrediting dope on his opponent.
This is an old and doubtful political
expedient, and voters should be on the
look out for such things and not allow
themselves to be carried off their feet
by last minute" stuff about some can
didate. The Office seeker who allows
his zeal to tempt him into methods Of
this sort to gain voters is sure to be
disappointed. Fairminded men and
women have come to look upon candi-
dates who stoop to things Of this kind
to get an office as wholly unfit.
Eleventh hour election dope" has
lost its effectiveness. The voter is
onto the scheme.
