the session, signed the statement

Karshner Won't BE Traded.
Karshner, Pierce county's new
est senator, showed himself to be
a man who could be trusted, when
he openly defied the leaders who
tried to force him into a shameful
combination for the passage of the
jitney bill over governors veto

Senator Davis, as usual, was on
the job all the time, hitting hard
in the right direction at every
turn of the road. He voted always
to put people above property.
Jones was a dyed-in-the-wool
corporation man. Like Speaker
Kelly, Jimmie Davis and the rest,
he opposed the right of cities to
control their own utilities, or to
extend them in any way which
might offer competition to the
Stone-Webster interests.
Jones was corporation senator,
but he, too, put in some good ticks
for Pierce county. He worked
hard for the mountain memorial,
and for the army post bonds.
Senator Fairchild, though he
usually voted right, was uncertain
and inclined to wobble.

ty delegation in the house who
could always be found following
along with the organization where
some special interest needed to be
taken care of were Jimmie Davis
and Claude A. Young-and Abe
Norris, Speaker Kelly and Torger
Peterson, usually.
The men who voted independ-
ently-although most of them
proved to be inefficient as con-
Istructive legislators-were Thomp-
son, Elliott, Healey, Golf and
Washburn.
This division does not mean
that some of them always voted
against the interests of their con-
stituents. The delegation usually
stood solidly together for meas
ures which Tacoma and Pierce
county wanted-unless these
measures happened to interfere
with some special interest which
dominated the organization.
To the timely work of Davis. for
instance, was largely due the sue
cess OF the mountain memorial,
and the measures legalizing the
army post bonds. AS chairman of
the appropriations committee, Da-
Wis also redeemed himself by set
ting aside personal and political
antagonism in reporting out the
$4,000 appropriation to aid in the
tourist rate case.
TOrger Wins Fight.
Torger Peterson made himself
almost famous for the fight he put
up to secure a big share of the
road appropriations for the de-
velopment of the mountain road.
Young and Morris did nothing
constructive, though Morris had a
town named for him. They did
as they were instructed. Their
votes we're the most dangerous
things about them.
Kelly Condemns Himself.
Speaker Kelly, though he began
his job in a way that seemed to
promise fairness and efficiency,
ended the session by condemning
himself in the eyes of the state by
placing personal gain above the
public interest. In the disgrace
full building and loan deal, he
dragged his organization down
with him, forcing make-shift vim
dication of the serious charges
against him, after choking off a
hearing of the case on its merits.
The Pierce county men who
voted to uphold his course: Davis.
Young, Peterson, Morris and Hea-
ley-branded themselves as I'M
worthy of public confidence.
Pierce county was efficiently
represented In the senate by Met
calf, Davis and DR.. Karshner. All
of them worked hard and voted
honestly. They were with the peo-
pie whom they represented down

PARIS. March s1.-A large number OF

envy in Rome, speak or the relation OF
the United States to Europe. Prof. Car

Hyde Foundation, has been giving lee
lures in the university towns of France
such as Nantes. Rouen, Nancy. B~esancon,
Grenoble. Lyon and Marseille. He clos
ed the series at the Sorbonne today with
a sketch of the evolution of American
opinion from neutrality. which it at first
regarded as a struggle for national power
between two groups of belligerents, to the
perception now that one of these groups is
fighting for it's own liberty and that of
small peoples in Europe governed against
their will.
Harvard University also is represented

From the standpoint of health, public

the following comment:
The United States is the only oun

the plan of turning the clock ahead an

months in the year. We have no doubt,
however. that the reports from the Eu-
