Fred Luke, candidate for sheriff of
Snohomish County, is a man qualified
in every way for the position which
he seeks. He has had a wide ex-
perience in the handling of police
matters and is familiar with every
phase of the duties that fall to the
office of sheriff Fred" as his
friends love to call him, has been
deputy sheriff for four years, and in
that capacity has given universal sat
isfaction. In addition to his ex-
perience in the sheriff's office he has
been patroman for nine years, SER
geant for two years and captain for
one year under Col. Hartley. His sue
cessive promotions demonstrate that
he is a man of great aptitude in this
tain thta if elected his administration
of the sherff's office will be such as
to bring that department of the coun
tvs administration to the highest de-
gree of efficiency. He is a man of
imposing stature and has a command
ing personally to back it up. He is
thus able to command the respect of
all without making any undue effort
and to enforce the majesty of the law
upon transgressors. Such qualifica
tons bespeak for him the support of
the voters in the election soon to be
held.

HON. RALPH G. BELL
- Judge of the Superior Court

Judge Bell is recognized throughout
the county as being a public official
who can always be depended upon to
serve the community according to the
highest dictates of his conscience. AS
judge of the superior court he has
shown himself to be peculiarly fitted
to sit on the bench, as his tempera-
ment is judicial, his judgment clear
and keen and his aims lofty His de-
cisions have uniformly displayed a
deep knowledge of the law and a
steadfast determination to deal i'm
partially with all concerned. At the
same time he has not been lacking in
the quality of mercy" nor has he put
himself outside OF the realm of human
sympathy and understanding. He is
not only a learned judge and an up
right one, but is man among men
and a friend of those who find them
selves adrift in an unfriendly world.
Judge Bell is a candidate for re-elec-
ton to the office he now holds, and
his splendid services in the past guar
antee for him the most careful con
sideration from the electors of the
county, who are seldom found lacking
in their willingness to endorse a Judge
of proven probity and fitness for the
office.

HOME LIFE.

We wish we could sufficiently i'm.
press upon every woman the Import
ance Of the home, and that woman
can have no higher work in life than
making homo for her husband and
growing children. This truth Is In
great danger OF being lost sight Of IN
these modern times, when women
will leave their little children TO be
cared for by hirellngs, while they
take up outside work, which might
Just as well be done by others. or
course If the mother is obliged TO
earn their living, that Is a good ex-
cuse, but II not, she has none.
II all good people who deprecate d.
yorces would be more careful about
making marriages; If the churches
would not give their sanction TO bar
gains for titles, and then deplore the
outcome, there would not be so many
mistakes to rectify The first thing
for any human being to learn is that
life is law and any transgresson will
bring trouble.

A WORD FOR FATHER.

The editor of the Indianapolis News
thus rushes to the defense of the
| downtrodden father:
When man succeeds in living u
good or useful life that fact is usually
attributed to the influence of moth
err. When men talk of days past no
word brings forth more treasured
memories than mother" When a
lawyer wishes to arouse jury's com
passion for client he invariably
speaks of the effects of conviction on
the mother. Poets, dramatists, and
fiction writer's of all ages have united
in honoring her name. Days have
been set aside in her honor, pensions
are given her, flowers named for her,
societies founded for her. All this is
we'll. The world would be a sorry
world indeed if it we're not so. But
is there not danger of father being
overlooked in the shuttle? The aver,
age father succeeds pretty well IN dis
charging his duty to society. lie la
bors along persistently and quietly
for six days week that his family
may be provided for; he stands be-
tween his family and the world,
shoulderlng the responsibility of the
rent, the taxes, the grocery, and the
coal bills he admonishes the boy and
advises the mother, seeking always to
make their burden lighter, he works
increasingly without complaint fight
ing, scheming, suffering to the end
that his family may be assured COM
fort and independence. In this he
sometimes fails, but he keeps on try
ing, cheeriuIly, stolidly, stubhornly
plugging along to the end.
The sacrifices that must be made he
makes willingly. The boy must go
to college and the girl must have mu-
sic lessons; something must be cut
and usually it is some luxury OF faith
ers that perishes by the wayside. He
is not so poetcal a figure as mother,
not so demonstrative in his affections,
so elated in pleasure, so depressed in
grief. Aud yet many will remember
a kind word here, or thoughtful act
there, that stands out, clear and dis
tinct, as one of youths happiest i'm
pressions. Not often is he appreciat
ed by the growing boy. Often he
stands IN the family as the oli3ial
admonisher to nom the boys faults
are related for punishment. On him
falls the unpleasant task Of applying
the rod; his is the, arm that must en-
force respect for mother and regard
for the rights of others, In this light
the growing boy is likely to view him
with mixture of fear, awe and re
spect. Not until years bring proper
perspective is he rightfully under
stood and appreciated and perhaps
not even then.

HELP THE BOYS.

We want to say few words for the
boys. We mean those wild reckless
boys who have no friends. We know
this is to many an unpleasant and
disagreeable subject, but we must not
forget that the boys make men, and
our country will be governed in the
future by the boys of today. We are
writing about the very bad boys, and
we don't mean that we are TO uphold
them in wrongdoings Don't go down
IN the ditch with them, but lend a
helping hand and help them out. Give
them a kind word Of cheer whenever
YOU can. We must trust man to
save him. Make him think that he is
a man, and the good that is within
him strives to do the best it can.
We are too apt, TO distrust our fell
lowmen. We don't love one another
as the Master babe us do. When Il
brother goes wrong we don't try to
bring him back, but like Cain, we
cry out, Am | my brothers. keeper
You hear people say in speaking OF
some Of these boys: There is no good
in him, he will never be any good.
We don't know each other because we
don't try. We are looking for faults
instead OF trying to find some good.
