cE'ATTLE'S NON-PARTISAN ELECTION

General Green's cleanup propaganda has
not only set the machinery to work clean
ing up the town under the present admin
istration, but it has caused the voters to
set up and take notice as to how to keep
the city clean under the next administra-
ton and to that end the names of num-
ber Of persons have been mentioned in con-
rectlon with the next mayOrality nominal
ton. Rev. w. A. Majors name has been
mentioned for mayor and it is receiving
many favorable comments and if he de-
cldes to enter the race he will give his op-
ponents hard run for the job. He is not
only most pleasing gentleman, but quite
diplomatic. all Of which would bring to him
many votes 1t is believed he would keep
the town as clean as it could be kept.
Claude G. Ramsay In our opinion
majority of the voters of Seattle
would be sufocated with delightfulness
to elect him mayor, but he being
persona non grata to the politicians
would have their opposition, which means
great deal, and Mr.. Ramsay having no
desire to squabble for thanl6less Job, will
doubtless not give the suggestion passing
consideration. He is doing splendid work
for the taxpayers as chairman of the board
OF county commissioners and, perhaps, it
would be to the advantage Of all to Just let
well enough alone. However, if he should
go into the fight he will come pretty near
winning.
Austin E. Griffith would make an ideal
mayor if he could be elected, hut Judging
from his efforts in the past to break into
the officeholding class and his absolute fail
ure to succeed in his undertaking, he has
not chance. AS between Griffith and
Gill. however, any citizen whether living
north or south of Yesler Way should
hundred times over vote for Griffith, but
the contest will not be confined to them
alone and if not, then Griffith will be so
badly beaten that you can safely say, he is
beaten now
Bob Hesketh may enter the mayorality
race and if he does there will be things
doing. While Bob will ostensibly be the
candidate of organized labor, yet a great
many of the so-called leading citizens will
vote for him and all because since he has

oeen a member OF the city council he has
SHOWN none OF the radical spirit so common
TO persons elected to office as repre-
sentative OF organized labor. With Gill and
fiesketh in the race Griffith might stand
chance.
Thomas S. Lippy. SO far as the candi-
dacy of 7. S. Lippy for one of the port COM
mlssoners is concerned, Cayton's Weekly
rises to remark ME too There is not
a doubt in our minds but that he would
make an Ideal port commissioner and one
That the entire community could and would
point to with pride. If Tom Lippy has
ever done any one an injustice during his
thlrty years residence in Seattle no one has
ever heard Of it. He is sufficiently inter-
ested IN Seattle to act with conservatism on
the board and in no wise being tied up with
the shipping concerns would enable him to
Go the best thing for the city and her COM
merclal interests at all times Mr.. Lippy
should beat Cotterill ten to one
Richard Winsor. This paper most cheer
tllly recommends the reelection of Judge
Wlnsor as a member of the school board
tie IS a grand old man and is always for
the under dog, using the vernacular of the
street. There is no excuse for any white
person voting against him and there is GER
talnly none for any colored person doing
so. Since lad in school Richard Winsor
has always been an enthusiastic advocate
OF human rights and in his former Michigan
home he championed the cause Of the black
man OF this country when it was almost
worth ones life to do So Judge Winsor
has served six years on the board and has
made an ideal official. Vote for him.
Anna Louise Strong has done nothing, in
our opinion, deserving of recall and we
hope every reader of Cayton's Weekly will
vote against her recall. We did not favor
Miss Strong's election, but she has made
an excellent member Of the school board
and the effort to recall her is nothing short
OF puerile patriotism. If Miss Strong is not
a thousand times more patriotic than the
men who fathered her recall then we sadly
miss our guess. Her would-be recall is the
over enthusiasm Of some Spanish American
war veterans and we suspect they have an
AK to grind In years past some Spanish
American war veterans broke up Social
istc meeting on the streets of Seattle and
got themselves talked about and for their
act they tried to run the politics of the
State, county and city through their Bolo
Club. Miss Strong has done no wrong.

eminent, whereupon he applied to the gov
eminent for admission to the service and
after passing the necessary physical ex-
animation. was accepted and ordered to the
California training camp for duty.
The leadership" that the colored people
of this country needs most is the deter
minatiOn on the part Of all Of them to do
unto others as they would have them do to
them and if man of the hour is needed he
will find his way to the front without a
coach.

High Farming at Elmwood," gives
US each month a glimpse of the edi-
tor and his worthy wife in their old
fashioned farm home. One sees in
imagination his own old home or
that of an uncle and aunt, or perhaps
grandparents.
First, mention is made of how at
this season one has more time and op-
portunity for studying bird and ami
NAL life. "The leaves have fallen and we
see how close to us the birds are
nested.
The cartridges come TO quiet spot
for scattered grain. We hope to keep
them alive through the winter; if we
can outwit the illegal hunters, foxes
and owls"
| He says, 81 long ago lost the hunt
ing instinct, and have come to agree
with Emerson when he asks:
Hast THOU named all the birds
without gun?
| Loved the wood-rose and left it on
its stem?
Oh, be my friend, and teach me to
be thine!'
Then he describes 'Harriets' plan of

well to follow

the needs of less fortunate neighbors
