1t has been reliably learned
that the troops stationed IN the
Wyoming garrisons have been
ordered to the border. No move

apparent here.
Gen. Funston is remaining in
San Antonio. Gen. Pershing will
probably have actual charge of
the invasion. 1t is thought un-
likely that troops will enter Mex

Carranza is preparing to aid the
Americans. The death of another
American trooper today at Fort

lamentable incident at Columbus.

suffered from the bandits led by

Although there have bene a
competent number of forces in

$500 troops have been in pursuit

northern part of the state, where
he crossed the line into the

HOW THE BANK MAKES
MONEY

Banks have a creative
force, stronger perhaps than
that of any line of business.
Through their general policy
they concentrate the funds
of the community and re-
loan them for the benefit of
the community.
It is essential that every
person play an active part in
thus building the community.
There can he no better adj
vertisepent than the total
amount of deposits in the
Bank. 1t has a tendency to
make times better and is
therefore beneficial to every
one.
The Puget Sound State
Bank has the idea that 1t
can furnish a satisfactory
service to the small as well
as the larger customer, and
respectfully invites the bust
ness of any individual and
will accept 800 on deposit.

POLITICS
CHAPTER III.
Elect No Secret Foe of City,
OWned Utility Plants
BY THE EDITOR

In giving your vote to candidates for city COM
missioner it is important that you know how
they stand in regard to municipal ownership.
The City of Tacoma owns and operates wa
ter system worth many millions of dollars.
1t owns and operates lighting plant worth
other millions
1t owns and operates dock valued at several
hundreds of thousands.
1t OWNS one car line.
In the next few years the city might wish to
extend the scope of these operations.
In any event we will want to retain all the
municipality owned utilities we now possess.
Consequently it is imperative that no more
commissioners be elected who are not heart and
soul in sympathy with the principle of public
ownership.
One underhand way in which the present
council showed its enmity to municipal owner
ship was in trying to rob the light and water
fund of it's rightfully earned money.
When the 1916 budget was in process Of for
nation last summer the commissioners got to-
gether and decided that it would be much easier
for them to transfer large sum of money from
the light and water fund into the general fund
than it would be to make a legitimate reduction
of the expenses in their various departments.
So they voted to rob these funds Of about
$4,000
That showed both mental laziness and de-
cided lack of genuine economy.
Worse than that, it was deceitful attempt to
discredit municipal ownership, also a fraud on
the merchants, manufacturers and hOusehOlders
of Tacoma.
For in using the money these RESIDENTS
had contributed and applying it where it would
reduce the taxes of NON-RESIDENTS, most OF
them spectators who hope to profit from the un-
earned increment.
It was so fragrant robbery that The Times
had no great difficulty in heading it Off After
six days of hard hammering we made the COM
mssOners turn complete somersault. How
ever, in other and more subtle ways the same
practice is still going on
AND, TACOMA VOTERS, IF YOU DON'T
ASSERT YOURSELF IN THIS CAMPAIGN
THE SAME OLD THING WILL HAPPEN
AGAIN NEXT YEAR AND THE NEXT.
Why? Because it's the easy course It's the
course that the public service corporations and
other special interests like-BECAUSE 1T IS A
COURSE THAT DISCREDITS MUNICIPAL
OWNERSHIP.
The public heretofore hasn't been awake to
the significance of these tactics. 1t has been
blinded more or less by the word 'proflt
The subtle boys who secretly hate the idea Of
municipal ownership yet profess to be its friends
continually urge that the city owned plants be
made to earn profit. When this profit ac-
cumulates, they favor transferring it into the
fund that will help Mr.. NONRESIDENT
Instead, the profit ought to be made REAL
PROFIT for the patrons of the plants. RATES
OUGHT TO BE CUT and the receipts and dis
bursements made to balance exactly from year
to year.
See in this campaign that you put every can
didate on record in this matter. Make him tell
you how he will treat our existing city-owned
plants, and what his attitude will be toward ex-
tending their scope.

Another feature of this construc-
ton will be that the entire building

nished by the contractor, John O.

pose of showing the people in our dis
trlct how the school will look when
completed.

ing which will add beauty to the sur
rounding country is the fact that there
will be no fence to enclose this edi-
flee. There will be a neat curb and a
beautiful lawn. All this means i'm
proement and the Algiers people will
be impatient until the building is
completed.
Mr.. John o. Chisholm stated that
he would let nothing go undone to
complete the building in the least pos
sible time, and that he would guaran-
tee the same Roadway in the school

Coconut Trees Blossom.

The blossom of the coconut tree is
not unlike a head of caulifiower and
is esteemed very much as the cab
bage" of the cabbage palmetto, which
grows to some extent in Florida. The
coconut blossom is boiled or eaten
raw with salad dressing. From the
blossom of the tree the natives also
make pleasant drink, soft when first
made, but strongly intoxicating when
fermented, and quite often it is al
lowed to ferment. BY one treatment
Of this fiower-liquor it is also made
into native vinegar.

Mr.. Chisholm was awarded the con
struction of the school building for
the second time. The first time how
ever, the bids were all in excess of
the amount of money available and
all the bids were rejected but in the

CHILD LABOR LAW
WILL GO TO COURTS

The federal child labor bill as
passed by the house of representa-
tives in February, prohibited the
shipment in interstate commerce Of
the product of any establishment
into which the labor of children, in
whole or in part had entered. The
senate substitute, to which the
house has now agreed, prohibits an
establishment employing children
below the standards fixed in the
bill from shipping its products in
interstate commerce, whether
made by children or adults. That
is, the house bill put an embargo
on the actual products made by
children, while the senate substi-
tute closes the channels OF inter-
state commerce to the establish
ment employing children. = 1t was
agreed by the best constitutional
lawyers OF the senate, and con-
CURED in by those, OF the house,
that the senate bill is more clearly
constitutional than the house bill.
A test case will inevitably be
brought and 30 to the supreme
court as the issues involved are

A PERFECT DAY

BY CARRIE JACOBS BOND.
When lou come to the end Of per.

And you sit alone with your though
While the chimes ring out with 8
carol gay,
For the joy that the day has
brought.
Do you think what the end of per-
feet day
Can mean to a tired heart,
When the sun goes down with a flam-
ing ray,
And the dear friends have to part :?
Well, this is the end of perfect day,
Near the end Of a journey, too;
But it leaves a thought that u big
and strong,
With wish that is kind and true;
For mem'ry has painted this perfect
day
With colors thai never fade,
And we find, at the end of a per-
feet day,
The soul of a friend we've rlade.
