SENATOR A. e. JUDD

State Senator A. e. Judd of
Chehalis will in all probability be the
democratic nominee for governor.
True it is that he has opposing.
candidates, but the sentiment among
the rank and file of the party organ
ization appears to be strongly favor
able to the candidacy Of the Lewis
county legislator.
Senator Judd may be classified as
a progressive conservative. He dreams
neither of soviet form of govern
ment of a state dominated by the So
called captains of industry. He has
the enthusiasm Of youth, the expert
ence Of age and legislative record
behind him which will appeal to the
progressive voters OF the state.
1t was senator Judd who was
selected to serve as temporary chair
man and make the keynote speech at
the democratic state Convention which
was held few months ago in
Spokane. 1t is largely result of the
favorable impression made upon the
delegates at that time that he is now
definitely in the race for the nomina-
ton for governor. 1t would be hard

Governor Cox's record, as governor
OF Ohio compiled by the Ohio state
federation Of labor shows that in con-
nection with So legislative measures
OF interest to labor, no adverse action
was taken by him in single instance.
The platform committee quotes
from Governor Cox's speech Of ac-
ceptance, in which he said:
THE writ Injunction should not
be abused. Intende as a safeguard
to person and property, it could easily
by abuse, cease to be the protective
device it was intended to be.
collective bargaining. through the
means Of representatives selected by
the employer and employee, respec-
lively, will be helpful rather than
harmful to the general interest"
Governor Cox's record as a member
OF the sixty-second congress shows
no vote unfavorable to labor.
In its summary of these two
records Of presidential candidates, the
platform committee says:
There can be but one conclusion
based upon q careful and impartial
survey of the actions and declare-
tfons of the candidates. Governor
Cox has shown himself possessed of a
fuller understanding Of the needs Of
the working people, readies response
to their needs and to their proposals,
and broader craftsmanship in his
public discussions of the problems Of
the industrial world.
1T must be exasperating to the
whole American public that political
parties, bidding for the suffrage Of
the whole citizenship, cannot state in
definite terms what are their pro-
posals and what are their pledges. The
same evaporation must be felt re-
garding many of the utterances of
candidates. However, the viewpoint
of Governor Cox is, we find, more
clearly expressed and less open to the
criticism of lack of clarity.
Moreover, and as an argument
that admits Of no qualifying or denial,
there is Governor Cox's record as gov
ernor of Ohio during which he acted
upon SO measures OF interest to labor
without acting on a single one ad-
versely to labor.
This is a record of fidelity to
humanity, of understanding of the
needs of the great masses of the
people that has few equals in Amer
lean political life.
"The American labor movement
asks for no man or woman q pledge
of political conduct. 1t seeks to die
tate to none. Its field is limited, and
properly so, to furnishing to the rank
and file the information upon which

THE League is Dead''-JOhnsOn SAYS

1.-THE League is Dead''-Johnson Says
Harding ''Scrapped It."
Senator Harding has scrapped the
League. This was done really by the
republican platform and in the repub-
Ncan candidates speech of accep.
lance; lbut certain gentlemen and
certain newspapers, for their own pur-
poses, pretended to construe the words
OF the platform and of the candidate
wholly at variance with their plain
tenor.
There can be now no pretense even
even of misunderstanding. Recently.
Mr.. Harding reiterated, in language
incapable of two interpretations, his
opposition and hostility to the League
of Nations. He declared, as we have
all declared, in favor of arbitration
treaties and the Hague Tribunal. He
would 60, as we would all 60, to very
great lengths to promote peace and
prevent war.
Governor Cox says, as the democra-
tic candidate, he favors going into the
League. Senator Harding now
emphatically answers, as the republic
can candidate, he favors staying out.
The long fight is won. We will

the question in November; but the

man when he's down. Mr.. Wilson Is
a sick man. He has jeodarized his
life in the service Of his country and
is entitled to praise instead of CEN

takes. Few that haven't. The man

STATEMENT OF POLICY.

70 the farmers Of 'Thurston county
In taking up the work as county
agent Of Thurston county I feel that
you are due a statement Of policy and
/ believe you will be interested to
know what you may Reasonably expect
from this Office.
Inasmuch as considerable publicity
has been given the salary to be paid,
it is possible that some may be led
to expect too much. hope this will
not be the case. Let me explain That
in accepting the offer no promises
were made to revolutionize the farm
ing practice of Thurston county and
make every farm pay and every farm
err prosperous. This is indeed an am
bition and hope, but no one man can
bring about such a reformation.
am sure you all appreciate some
of the difficulties under which l take
up office: % 1t is always difficult
to make big showing when follow
ing a good man. I'm sure the former
county agent, Mr.. c. H. Bergstrom,
was good agent and did some fine
constructive work. (2) 1t is late in
the season. and about all that can be
done now is to check up on what is
being done and make plans for work
next year. Those who look for the
sensational will undoubtedly be dis
appointed. The best that can be
hoped for will be a well-planned pro-
gram Of work looking toward a, grad
ual growth that will mean perma-
nent progress.

which to feel encouraged. Cd The

produced ten spot but was informed
by Bolton that he was not after
blood money and that it required s.k
cash money. Another ten was dug IN.
Again he was informed that thu
amount was $25. But he did not
happen to have the remaining IS on
his person. but informed the cop that

would put it up for him.
Now Bolton happens to be of an
accommodating nature and did as re-
quested. but Mr.. Sans failed to see
what business mere speed cop had In
pinching his business partner and
refused to come through with the
five. And, according to the story told
by Bolton, wanted to know what he
was thinking Of when he took the
last dollar a man had who was on the
highway. and also wanted to know
where he received his instructions.
Bolton quietly asked the entire
board of commissioners to instruct
him as to whom he was permitted to
arrest for law violations. The matter
was referred to County Attorney
O'Leary by Commissioner Bennett. 1t
is said that O'LeaIy informed the
c mmissioncr that the law was 30
plain that most anyone could under
stand 1t, particularly that portion
which placed the speed limit at 80
miles an hour.

sometime today.

leaving him. After that he said no

pay any attention to the speedometer.

dacy Of the Judge for reelection.

Elections against them by insinuatng
that they are lending themselves as
instruments of the radical element to
defeat the judge. and attempt to hold

should see fit to chose another man
for judge it would be a victory for
the radicals.
The friends of the other candidates
resent the seeming inuendos as SIM
ply a smoke screen thrown out to de-
ceive and prejudice the people.
AS a matter of fact. the people had
no choice in the selecting Of Mr..
Wilson for the bench. He was ap.
pointed in the first instance by Gov
ernor Lister. and no other candidate
appeared in opposition to him wher
he was elected to fill out the unex-
pir term of Judge Mitchell. The
Office belongs to the people, and il q
majority see fit to choose another
man for judge that is no reason 70.
charging such choice Is a victory Of
any class or party. The position is
non-political. and no partisan bunk
should be injected into the judiciary
contest to arouse prejudice. The
people are entitled to know the char
acter and ability Of the aspirants for
the bench. but martyrdom. vindica-
ton, prejudice and such cheap stuff
has no place in such a contest.
Perhaps, If the merits Of the other
candidates for Judge were laid be-
fore the people they, the people.
might see fit to replace one or both
the presnt incumbnts. We kno "
that Judge r. H. Sturdevant and w.
J. Milroy are both older m n and
have had a much longer experience
in the law than either of the present
judges, and they are from the pio-
neers Of this territory and state.
They are both honorable men whose
patriotism and character cannot be
questioned.
The judiciary. above all otner
ofiices, should be clean and kept free
of the prejudices, misrepresentation
and trickery that too often enter into
the contest for political Office.
The article referred to was primed
to be published at a time too late to
be refuted before the primary. with
the hope and intent of influencing
voters to act before they had time to
reflect and analyze the motive that
prompted 1t. 1t was just an ordUary
cheap political trick that was dis
honest and unfair to both the people
and the other candidates.
