The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1918-08-30

Judge Walter NJ. French, OF the Kit
sap County Superior Court, has an
nounced his candidacy for the two-year
term on the Supreme Bench. There is,
perhaps, no jurist now serving the
State better known than is Judge
French; as he has frequently held
court in practically every county in
the commonwealth. coming to know
and to be known by the laity as well
as members of the bar. AS the judi
ciary has been removed from partisan
politics, Judge French will thus have
the support of his great mass OF
friends of all political faiths.
The voters of Kitsap County elected
Judge French to the Superior Bench in
1912 and again in 1916, the latter time
unanimously. The Judge has been
resident of Port Orchard, the county
seat of Kitsap County. for more the
twelve years. Perhaps nowhere out
side Of his own country is Judge
French so we'll know d.. I'm
esteemed as in King County, where Ia
Is as familiar a figure on the Superior
Bench as is one of the regular jurists.
Judge French has the reputation
through the State as one OF the hard
est-working members of the judiciary.
When his own docket has been com
pleted and he is not holding court in
some other county, his services are in
demand In King, where the amount OF
litigation Is rapidly mounting, and a
call is never sent to him in vain. Ere
Quently he proffers his assistance when
the trial dockets grow unusue'l" boa"
Judge French was born in Hillsdale.
Michigan, January 80. 1874. cOIn4., g.
washington in 1899 and locating in
Seattle. He entered the newly organ
ized law department of the University
of Washington and bears the distinc-
ton OF being the first law graduate OF
that institute to pass the bar examina
ton. and the first graduate to hold a
judicial position. During the Spanish
American war he served in the army,
vas mustered out a first lieutenant,
and since then has been an active
member Of the Spanish-American War
Veterans.
All the time possible that can be
spared from his judicial duties, Judge
French is now devoting to the present
war He Is chairman of the Kitsap
County Council OF Defense, and has
taken conspicuous parts in the Red
Cross and Liberty Loan drives.
He has received the strong official
endorsement of Union Labor in con
nection with his present candidacy for
Justice of the Supreme Court; first,
that of the Bremerton Labor Council,
Kitsap County; then, that OF the
Seattle Central Labor Council. He
also has the support of the entire
bench and bar of King County, the
members of which know him so well
and appreciate him highly as par
ticularly able jurist.

cessary to embellish the rather
gloomy aspect which is affected with
their wear. Many of the shops are
showing a variety of beads in most
attractive designs. Or, if preferred,
one may obtain the ever-smart min
iature which slips on a ribbon of
some odd and novelty weave. And
speaking of novelty weaves, many
of the coat suits so popular this fall
are developed in woods of checks,
plaids and cross-bar. The good
looking coat illustrated is just such,
having its charm and smartnes in
the unconscious weave of the mater
ial. The neck-line is finished with a
shawl collar of a contrasting mater
ial which gives a soft finish to the
face. And then for mid-season wear
we have the satin suit. Satin is so
lovely to wear and still more lovely
to look at. But when the autumn
breezes blow and the crisp air gives
us warning of the approach of Win
ter, we turn with relief to our furs
to wear with the indispensable satin
suit. This affords, of course, an ex-

more than an instant flicker, he
migt introduce a resolution declar-
ing it to be the sense of this admin
istration that there shall be no COM
promise with kaiserism, and none
with Germany, until she is beaten
to her knees. That will do some
thing to take the taste out of our
mouths following the assertion that
1--WE have no quarrel with the Ger
man people," 1t will involve swiping
war plank from the republicans,
but inasmuch as the democrats have
been doing that right along it may
escape notice. The abiding fear with
the boys in Europe is that the adj
ministration may call the big game
in the fourth inning with no rain
checks issued.
Can't Be Trusted
American wearing apparel is
going steadily in Argentina as a
result of the failing European sup
plies" declares the Bureau of For
eign and Domestic Commerce. "This
is especially true of hosiery, which
before the war came almost entire
ly from Germany" How freely they
now confess the real reason for our
great expansion in sales to Latin
America, and how utterly they de-
MED it a few weeks before the 1916
election. These were the days when
t h e democratic nation committee
said our war export trade was due
to democratic policies, and that the
sale of war goods accounted for but
5 per cent of the total. A party
that lied like that in 1916 is pretty
apt to lie again in the congressional
of 1918.

torious Germany. Save and buy

tial to the winter season. The feel
ing to grandure they give one as
they are swathed about the Shout
ders is sufficient excuse for the ex-
pense of them. This season features
the combination of pelts that up to
the present had been practically I'M
heard of. Kolinsky, which scored so
last season, will continue one of the
popular furs of the coming season.
This will be used especially for the
new coats, which has received the
highest approval of fashion. For
coats, seal and beaver will be used
owing to their good draping quality.
The humble little squirrel, of hith-
erto unknown existence, is now one
of the pelts in greatest demand. 1t
adapts itself so readily to the de-
signs that it has wonderful capac-
ity for making its wearer look eter-
nally young. That, | think, is the
real secret of its success.
Week.-Mrs. Still Popular
Everybody seems to enjoy week
ends now, even more than an ex-
tended trip. In the past, the conclu-
sion of the summer season meant
the termination of these delightful
little parties. But now they are ono
of the essential pleasures of city
folks and even the advent of winter
is not sufficient to discourage them.
The question which most naturally
arises is what to carry our neces-
stiles in. Even though we have a
most considerable host, we must not
impose and should start on our jour
ney fully prepared for the visit. The
shops are showing some perfectly
fascinating little weekend cases
The inner sides are lined with all
the Toilet accessories that one would
need. Besides, there is ample space
for some small articles of clothing
and when closed it is most conven-
lent and inconspicuous to cary.

The Mid=SeaSOn Costume

of It's Details

New York, August 2S.-A shrug of
the shoulders and sometimes a care
less glance, is all the average woman
lavishes on the minute details of
her costume. They are passed over
lightly and termed mere fads and
fancies of the season. Still, how often
is the tout ensemble devoid of smart

REPORTS ON LINDEN SOLDIERS
ARE NEEDED IMMEDIATELY

The October business meeting of
the Red Cross was held Tuesday in
the Masonic Hall. Mrs. Bay in a
report on the Home Service work
said that only 81 reports have been
received of the 200 men who are in
the service. She asked everyone to
see that these reports were sent in,
as it would be very important to
have them when the men are return
ed to civil life. The Home Service
Committee has been able to help sew
eral families in obtaining their al
lotments and also in getting letters
to the boys which had previously
been returned.
1t was announced that persons hav-
ing paid their dues and not having
received the receipt should get them
at the Red Cross rooms in the Ma
sonic Hall. A box will be placed there
in which the receipts will be kept
when they arrive from Bellingham.
Everyone should be sure that they
get their name on the quilt which the
Red Cross is making.

pointed:
