measures. That doesn't alter the fact
that this program was approved by
labor, in a convention representative
of the organized labor movement of
the entire state. 1t is your legislative

When you can see plainly the ma

into play every conceivable trick to
prevent these bills going upon the
ballot from downright coercion to
court injunction process, you ought to
be fighting mad. You have duty to
perform, and you haven't done it until
you register and sign these initiative
petitions and ask your friends and
neighbors to do the same.
Are you going to allow the corpora
tions and standpat politicians to get
away with the game they are playing,
or are you going to get out and work
like the dickens to put these bills on
the ballot? The answer rests with
you, and you have but few short
weeks left to make good in.

AS more interesting and effective
means of demonstrating what is being
accomplished in mechanical and other
training at the state institutions, the
board of control has decided to sub
stitute moving picture films for the
usual exhibits of handiwork at the
Yakima state and the interstate fairs.
The board will use 5000 feet of film,
which will show the inmates at work
in the institutions, administration op-
GRAFTON, sports and in general sur
vey Of all such activities that will
amount to an actual visit for those
who are either directly or indirectly
interested in how the state managed
those committed to its care. The
films will run at the fairs in hour
periods, accompanied by such ex-
plantations as are necessary. Later
they will be shown at the ~ state
institutions from which they are
taken and then probably will make
the circuit Of moving picture houses.
The course is designed as educational
on the modern plan with a view to
arousing closer and more sympathetic

The new industrial insurance COM
mission, which assumed office June /,
has already made several important
changes in administration methods OF
the department. AS one OF the safe
guards against the passing OF any
more fraudulent accident claims from
county road work, the commission now
requires the approval Of one member
of the board of county commissioners
in addition to that of the road fore
man. tMost of the Gillies frauds were
forged on alleged county road pay
rolls. BY requiring the approval of a
county commissioner of claims an Of
ficial assurance of validity is given
by the county.
In further protection of the reserve
fund the insurance commission has
required affidavit reports of physical
condition every three months from
pension fund beneficiaries. Payments
will be held at the office until such
reports are received. The commits
sion has also suspended cash advances
in excess of monthly payments due
beneficiaries, except in cases where
an advance would save the beneficiary
from sacrificing property.

STATE CAPITOL NEWS

Olympia, June 15.-Police measures
have been adopted by the board of
control to protect inmates of the state
reformatory for girls at Grand Mound
from further annoyance by outsiders.
Until recently no man was employed
about the institution, the girls and
their instructors doing the farm work
and getting along happily. The ap-
pearance of male face at a window
one night caused the board to employ
a night watchman, who patrols the
reformatory with orders to shoot, If
needful, to protect the institution.
In reply to recent rumors that
charges of cruelty against the reform
atory management had been ignored
W. H. Cochran, of the state board of
control, made the following statement:
"No girl has ever been struck or has
received corporal punishment in any
form since the opening of this school,
Corporal punishment is prohibited at
this institution, and it is libel upon
the superintendent and lady employees
for any one to make such a state
ment."

action before the superior court of
Thurston county, which is the pre-
liminary court for all state cases. Rail-
roads are prompt as rule in collect
ing demurrage charges from shippers
who exceed fixed period in unload
ing cars. Under statutory authority
the commission established what is
called reciprocal demurrage, under
which the shipper is entitled to collect
81 per day as demurrage from the
railroad company for non-delivery Of
cars to a loading point six days after
they are ordered. The Milwaukee
road resisted this charge on COM
plaint by the Schlaefer Warehouse Co.
of Rosalia, the claim amounting to SGT.

to grain and other shippers if sim

when they are needed to move crops.

No Change in Sight

Our opinion is that like announcement
will be made in year from now. The Super
Six invention in one bound, increased motor
efficiency by 80 per cent. From small,
light Six, which delivered AZ horsepower, it
created a 76-horsepower motor. And simply
by ending vibration.
Stock Super-Sixes, in a hundred tests, have
out-rivaled all other stock-car performance In
speed, in hill-climbing, in quick acceleration
and endurance, they have done what was
never done before.
No man can doubt that the Super-Six
holds the pinnacle place among motors
And there is no higher place in sight
After eight months of experience, with
10000 cars, not one important improvement
in design suggests itself to our engineering
corps.
So the Super-Six will remain as it's And,
because Of our patents. it will maintain its
