THREE HONORABLE JUDGES

AT the coming election three men
are to be elected to the six-year term
OF the supreme court of the state OF
Washington. The very great import
ance OF this office is generally
known. In the decisions of contro-
Nersy before them, the courts to a
great extent declare the principles
upon which men must act in all OF
their business affairs. And yet the
matter OF choosing judges capable in
point OF ability character and dispo-
sltlon to fill this office is not easy.
Their work is largely done in quiet
and seclusion; it has nothing of the
spectacular bout it, and it involves
the exercise of trained and expert
qualities as to which, in the nature
OF the case, only those persons who
come in close contact with the courts
can have intimate knowledge.
For these reasons, the undersigned
members of the bar of Pullman take
occasion to refer to the candidates.
of the Hon. Wallace f. Mount, Hon.
John f. Main and Hon. John R.
Mitchell for reelection to the SUI
preme court of the state These
men have all had long and success
full judicial experience. They have
proved themselves able. honest and
faithful to their high trust. They
have shown themselves to be pos
sessed of the judicial temperament
open minded to the arguments up
on both sides of every controversy,
fair, dispassionate, free from parti-
sanship and from all disposition to
PREJUDICE, answering in declaring
the law as they find it. They have
gained the great advantage of expert
ence which the public would lose by
failing to re-elect them.
Therefore, the undersigned mem
bers of the bar of Pullman unreserv-
eddy endorse and recommend them
for reelection. In our Judgment,
there is no more important duty be-
fore the voters at this election than
to continue these men in the office
which they now so we'll fill

DROPS HIS CAMPAIGN TO WORK
FOR RED GROSS

J. S. Klemgard, democratic candi-
date for state representative from
the Seventh district, is a successful
farmer and a progressive citizen. He
is a man of ideas, with the ability to
express them fOrcefully. The energy
with which he takes hold of anything
that he undertakes has given him a
reputation for accomplishing results,
and a wide influence among his fell
low farmers.
His broad sympathies and gener-
Gus impulses have been strikingly
demonstrated during the last few
days. When the influenza epidemic
became serious in Pullman, he com
pletely abandoned his political cam
paign and placed himself and his
auto at the service of the Red
Cross. He has been working day
and night in the good cause and says
that he has been too busy to even
think about the election. If he is
elected, the legislature will soon find
out that the Seventh district has a
representative at Olympia who hits
straight from the shoulder and does
not mince words.

for county commissioner from the
Second district made a campaigning

hard and feels much encouraged by
the promises of support which he is
receiving from prominent taXpay-
ers of both parties, who are in SYM
pathy with his program of holding
down expenses and deferring new
road work till after the war ends.

MAKES No CAMPAIGN

County Commissioner J. B. San
born has made no campaign for re-
election. He takes the position that
his record is before the voters and
that they can endorse it or not, just
as they please. He has no apologies
to offer and no promises to make.
He says that, if elected, he shall pur-
sue the same policy as in the past
because he has at I'll times tried to
handle the affairs of the county as
carefully as his own private business.

WHO ". II. McCROSKEY is
AND WHAT HE STANDS FOR

farm; came to the state Of Washing
ton before arriving at full age and
has resided in Whitman county, in
the Fourth congressional district, for
the past % years.

ally interested in agriculture and is
closely identified with the farming
and business interests of his COM
munity.
Has served several terms as mayor
Of his home city of Palouse, and as
PRESIDENT of the chamber of COM
nerce and is now a member of the
executive committee of the local
council OF defense.
Some OF the Things He Stands For
The war is an American and not a
party question. He is in favor OF a
rigorous prosecution of the war and
is opposed to all peace talk until the
enemy is thoroughly overcome and
uneonditionally surrenders.
He believes that ii we continue the
struggle until the spirit of militarism
is broken and abandoned, just and
lasting peace may be arranged that

cies vi the world.
He fayors the punishment and sup
preston of all dlsIoyal, Stacker and
mpatriotie persons, elements and or
ganizations and the complete nation
a2ation of America.
He insists that all persons, cor
porations and organizations under
the protection of the flag, shall to
the full extent of their ability, con-
tribute to the expense of the WI, but
he also insists that excess war profits
and unearned profits shall be taxed
heavier than profits derived from
peace lime enterprises, which profits
are merely increased by reason Of

Is WE'LL QUALIFIED FOR COUNTY
ASSESSOR
Yours respectfully,
S. r. CLEGG.

ASSESSOk
The most requisite qualifications
of a county assessor are sound judg-
ment, a wide knowledge of the
value of lands and personal prop
erty and the backbone to fix yaiua-
tions fairly without fear or favor
1t is because he possesses these
qualifications that John NJ KLEIN
gard is winning strong support for
this office outside of his own party.
He is Well and favorably known in
that part of the county which he has
covered as a field deputy assessor
and he has made a fine impression
while campaigning in other sections.
The almost unanimous vote given
him by his neighbors at the primary
election is regarded as the best pos
sible endorsement Of his character
and high standing in the community
where he resides His neighbors
and friends not only voted for his
nomination, but they have been
working aggressively for his election,
Their work is bearing fruit and ac-
cording to the political dopesters he
now has a commanding lead in the
race and is gaining ground every
day.
