horseflesh at IL cents a pound against
beef and mutton at 81 cents pound.
Labor leaders and social reformers

OR" DOESN'T MEAN OR-IT MEANS
AND"

Change your views on the English language
dear brothers and sisters. "Or' means land"
and as for "or,' there really "ain't no such
word And yet, as the Morton Mirror puts it,
eff Attorney General Tanner were given his
choice of ten million dollars or a limburger sand
wich, we wonder what his Interpretation of the
word or would be- the comment arising from
that officials ruling as to the limitations of the
prohibition law. "Would he say that he was
entitled to BOTH under the offer'' it goes on to
ask, 4" or would he think he was entitled to but
one9
I'm our OPINION it adds, with confidence as
well as little sarcasm, there is just as much
sense in propounding such inquiry as there is
in the attorney general decision that in the case
of the dry law, 'Or means and "
A lot of the rest of us think just the same
thing. We are all familiar enough with the Eng
lish language-at least should be-and the
way it is written and spoken, to know that when
a person means "or'' he says "or;" when he
means 'and" he says "and." If the trainers of
the prohibition law had intended that residents
of the state Of Washington could obtain permits
for, or have in their possession, specific amount
of both beer and other liquors they would have
said so, but they did not so ntend-in fact, they
very specifically said they did not. They used the
word cor" instead of "and, and they certainly
meant "or.'' If they had meant ''both'' they
would have said So.
This is just another ridiculous example of how
the English language may be twisted by one who
wants to pervert it's obvious and intended mean.

A year ago Washington's state
library amounted to nothing, but the
library fund created by the last
legislature put it on it's feet. Every
notary who took out a new commits
sion was required to pay $40 INTO
the library fund. Since this money
became available over 1000 volumes
have been purchased, making the
total number of volumes in the
library 22,224.

SOMETIMES.
nine years.

Sometimes long for lazy isle
Ten thousand miles from home,
Where the warm shines and the blue ski" smile
And the milk-white breakers foam
coral island, bravely set
In the midst of the Southern sea-
Away from the hurry and noise and fret
Forever surrounding me-
For tire of labor and and fight,
And weary of plan and scheme,
And ever and ever my thoughts take flight
To the island of my dream;
And fancy browsing the whole day long
In hammock that gently swings
Away from the clamorous, toiling throng,
Away from the swirl of things!
And yet know in a little while,
When the first glad hours were spent,
I'd sicken and tire of my lazy isle
And cease to be content!
I'd hear the call Of the worlds great game
The battle with gold and men
And I'd sail once more, with heart of flame,
Back to the game again! -Berton Braley

CITY OFFICIAL PAPER
WILL IT BE THEODORE?

Wilson will be the presidential candidate of
the Democratic party in the coming campaign
unless he voluntarily wihdraws. There is
question about that though there may be little
racket about it. We can look at that feature of
the coming campaign, however, as practically
settled and turn attention to what s going to
happen on the other side of the fence, in the Re
publican camp. And that s almost as easy, for
the four letters which make up that short nick
name, "Teddy," spell just exactly what the Re-
publicans going to 60 up against in their ma
tional convention next June
For Roosevelt has the drop on the Republicans
now. Their national committee met exuded har-
mony and called upon the Bull Moose to come
back into the fold, and every party paper in the
United States delivered itself of such sentiments
Teddy sat tight, and the Progressive national
committee met in Chicago few days later. What
did they do? They "passed the buck" right back
to the regulars They adopted specific plat
form-in which, just between ourselves, there was
an awful lot of chunk and delivered an ult
matum. eff you IL nominate Teddy some man
as acceptable as he is, we II put in with you and
nominate him, too, they said in effect "Other-
wise we will nominate somebody else"
It appears to be framed" lovely for Teddy,
and newspapers here and there appear to see the
Handwriting on the wall" The New York
Tribune, for example-and one can be and really
should be greatly surprised at this-comes out
strong for. the Colonel, and the Tribune opposed
him in 1912. Coming to our own state there is
the Navy Yard American, whose publisher was
one of the Bull Moose in the last congress, you will
remember, and the Honorable James w. Bryan
arises and remarks the fact that "the Republicans
Of the country, as was shown by the tremendous
majority given Roosevelt over Taft at the last
election, believed him the rightful nominee of the
Chicago convention in 1912, will create demand
for him as the nominee Of the Chicago convention
in 1885,
The New York Tribune's editorial prompts the
Montesano Vidette to inquire, lis the Tribune
sounding the Republican party? Surely there is
some method in its thrill. Roosevelt, we remem-
Der, carried Washington in 1872" and the Skagt
County Times, after having little fun over it
at the Republicans expense, points out that lit
is not question Of what the standpats want,
but what they must accept-and that's Teddy"
That is just the way it looks to u.s. too, at this
writing.

agriculture, contributes article to this issue

testing association urging that one be organized
in Thurston county, while in another column there
appears an article on what the Thurston County
Dairy association proposes to do at its regular
meeting next Saturday Elsewhere is published
the announcement of the Northern Pacific cam
paign inaugurated in this territory, for more and
better livestock on Washington farms, while in
still another column is story about the Potato
club which is also scheduled to meet Saturday.
From these it would appear that cattle and
spuds are receiving a good deal of attention in
Thurston county, attention from which some good.
and perhaps great amount, will come. Expert
ence is mighty good teacher and experience, SO
DR.. Graves points out, has demonstrated what
great improvements in dairying the contrasting
associations, first organized in Europe, bring
about Incidentally, the editor of this newspaper
has made it point for the last month to ask
farmers of this county what they thought of such
an association-farmers who opposed the county
agent system, as well as those who fought for it
any opinion other than that 6 it would be mighty
good thing That sentiment far as we can
learn, is practically universal, and it is extended
to the Potato club as we'll

In western county of Minnesota where the
farmers are not as prosperous as they are in some
places, they own about four dollars worth of
livestock per acre." says clipping Thurston
county farmer sent us the other day. "There are
counties where the farmers own thirty to forty
dollars worth of livestock per acre. it adds,
land the farmers of these counties are invariably
enjoying prosperity" Then comes the comment:
s'No matter at what angle the subject of farming
is studied, livestock, especially dairy cattle, hold
the key to successful and profitable agriculture"
And there isn't farmer but knows that's true

Newspaper editors Of the state, of dailies and
weekies alike, held at the University of Washing
ton last week their md-winter institute and it is
reported to have been not only instructive, and
therefore successful, but profitable as we'll.
Washington's editors do lot of good for
themselves, and still more for their state by such
endeavors, influences which enable them to pub
lish better newspapers. That is why we believe
the University is to be congratulated heartily
in promoting such meetings.

Local oystermen have lost lot Of money dur
ing the recent cold weather, coming at period
of low tides, but they have also learned lot
just they did during the last severe cold spell
in 1907. Their experience then prompted them to
build the dikes which unquestionably saved them
thousands of dollars this winter. The experience
they have just now been having will stimulate
we predict, still greater improvements in the next
nine years.
