The same thing cannot be said for the Spirit City, because she has lost no saintly name that she should seek to recover. The same. condition that existed a month ago, existed thirty years ago But Seattle can make good name for her self by putting good man at the head of the po- lice department with the full support of the law abiding citizens
 There is something peculiar about the Seat tie people They appear to have but one idea, and that is to rush and keep the business wheel awhirling The majority never takes time to pay attention to anything but rushing business. Not that there are no good people there; for there are thousands; but the majority seems to think of accommodating wealth to the exclusion of everything else To an outsider, they appear to be constantly on the run; rushing to anl fro madly; so to speak. Of course, there are many exceptions but they are in the minority, which accounts for Hi" being at the head of the mum icipal government.
 However. as soon as General Greene dis covered the condition knowing that Uncle Sans boys must be above all morally healthy. he soon knocked off the mad rush" from under the Spirit City and offered her a chance to make good name for herself After all it may be the best thing that ever happened to Seattle.
