112h per cent.
And when, after noting that tt
total wealth of the state has in
creased 318 per cent in the last Is
years and the population 273 per
cent, he points out that taxation has
increased 686 per cent, he declares It
is time to call halt, time for the
farmers to put somebody in the leg

preparations.

own half the real estate, as they did
in the hard times 20 years ago."
Mr.. Cation is of course dry"
candidate. He has been a leader I'm
the Prohibition party Of the state for
years, as everybody knows. He is
intensely interested in the agricul-
tural development of Western Wash
ington. and he thinks the state ought
to use its idle millions to help the
farmers clear their lands. He pro-
poses to work for such law and for
the establishment of state market
ing system, too, and for the further
freeing of the direct primary from
boss control. through the medium Of
the blanket ballot.
He is also deeply and actively in
terested in the development of Olym-
pia. His home IL here, all Of his In
terests are here, and he is as anxious
to protect and to promote the city's
every interest as anyone could be.
He isn't going to let anything be
taken away from 1t.
And he is a big, capable. broad
guaged man, man who would have
influence in legislative body. man
who would really represent Thurston
county.

Favor Plan of County Aid.

A second conference on the land
clearing problem, held last week at
the State University, went on record
in favor of the use of public funds
for aid in clearing logged-off Glands.
The general recommendation was
that land clearing districts be Gre
ated, not to exceed county limits in
area, with very low assessment,
which should be used in buying pow
der and machinery. The conference
also favored taxation concessions to
owners of land who clear same and
place it in cultivation. Plans were
made for a later conference which
will consider marketing problems,
from the small farmers viewpoint.

FILIPlN0S CAN STAY
I'M NATIONAL GUARD
BY NATURALIZATION

Filipinos living in the Territory OF
Hawaii may enlist in the National
Guard Of Hawaii if they take out eitl-
zenship papers first, says a recent de
cision of the judge Acknowledgement
Of the United States army.
"If. as now appears to be the case,
Filipinos are being admitted to citi-
zenship by the courts" says the de.
cision in part. s.the question is deter.
mined in their favor and they may
qualify as respects citizenship for
membership in the National Guard.
The opinion means that Filipinos
now in the guard who have not al
ready taken out first papers in citi.
zenship must do so in order to remain
ntiIitiamen. There are now between
$500 and 5000 Filipinos in the Ma.
tional Guard of Hawaii
The decision of Judge Clemons OF
this city and the supreme court OF
the District OF Columbia, both holding
that the naturalization laws authorize
the naturalization of Filipinos, had an
important bearing on the outcome.
