can rights abroad during the Euro

There is an incurable defect of
character in the administration with
respect to the weakness and concilla-
ton which have characterized it," he
said, land we can not expect improve
ments from that source.
ave can Judge by what has been
done and by what has not been done,
and we are here together under cir
cumstances very unexpected. to me to
see If we can not have genuine re-
vival of American sentiment SO that
we may face the world erect and pre-
pared"

port Of it. The nominee said he did

EIihu f. Barker for Supreme
Court
trapper.

No doubt many voters who want to
honestly and conscientiously discharge
their duty by casting their ballot for
good men, for qualified men, for the
different Offices to be filled at the COM
ing election, and have been at loss
how to make a distinction when there
are two or more candidates for the
same office. One of our difficulties
was solved this week when Mr.. ]. G..
Kelley, Of Walla Walla, wrote to the
editor of this paper and recommended
Elihu F. Barker of his city, who is a
candidate for the unexpired term on
the Supreme court of the late Justice
Crow, as in every way fitted for the
vacancy. Knowing Mr.. Kelley per
sonally, and having confidence in his
judgment and sincerity we shall take
pleasure in voting for Mr.. Barker, and
here recommend him to our friends
who may be at sea about who to vote

Mountain Climbers from Seattle

Mr.. Frank F. Sinks and wife came
here last Saturday to revictual. They
are on a months outing in the noun
tains and came here from Mt. Stewart
by way of the Icicle canyon last Friday
and returned to the mountains on the
head of the Icicle in the vicinity OF
Mt. Stewart where they expect to make
further excursions into out Of the way
and unfrequented places. Mr.. Sinks
told reporter for this paper that he
had visited the Glacier Peak country
in Montana and was surprised to find
the Icicle canyon and the glaciers
about Mt. Stewart equal if not superior
if one is hunting for wild and magnif-
icent mountain scenery. He says he
will never go away from home to hunt
scenery again. 1t is at the door OF
every citizen Of the state. Mrs. Sinks
is as enthusiastic and as intrepid
mountain climber as her husband and
remarked that she contemplated with
dread the return to civilization and the
time when she had to dress-up. Mr..
Sinks is sales manager for the Pacific
Coast Steel Co. at Seattle. They were
accompanied by P. c. Peterson, who
was here few years ago and will be
remembered on account of his pack
dogs. He said he had only seven with
him on this trip. When here few
years ago he was connected with the
forestry department as hunter and
trapper.
