HOW DID HE EVER LEAVE

Yesterdays mail brought us a pie printer friend, Charles Derry, mailed from Honolulu, August 20, and stat ing that he was that day leaving for Hilo and would be at the Atlas ho- tel (so named because it carries burden) in San Francisco early this month, and wanted to hear from us And then we turned the card over and there was picture of two half breed Kanakas, husky, fine-looking girls, more than three-quarters out of clothes, having nothing on but a few straws they had plucked from the haymow. One was sitting in the door of their grass hut picking on a poor ukelele and the other was sit ting on the dry sand near her mangling a guitar.
 And right there and then we de. cided, knowing Derry as we do, that if he was at that place the time he wrote that postcard he never left there for Hilo. You couldn't have gotten him to leave if you had thrown in the jack and the game and big and little casino.
 We took our glasses off, polished the lenses, put them on again, and took another long and careful look and then-we got hold of six long tacks and we nailed that picture to the wall; face to the wall.

JUMPING AT CONCLUSIONS

In comment upon the results of the election, eastern newspapers are already jumping at conclusions as to the parts played by the Wo- mans votes, by the labor vote, and by the socalled racial vote-the vote of our naturalized citizens. Such conclusions naturally take cn the political tone of the newspapers themselves and are announced with jubilatiOn on the one hand, and on the other with explanations, apolo' gies and criticism.
 We doubt the soundness of req, soning that leads to nasty conclu' sions in these matters, because of what seems to us to be the inherent mistake of assuming that the wo. men voted as women, that labor had nothing in mind but the immediate interest of labor as it functions through its organizations, and that the foreign born participated in the election in an alien spirit rather than as citizens of the United States. At the same time we must admit that our doubt may be due to distance from those states and voting centers where some such segregation may have been possible In the state of Washington we have had none of it, or so little of it that it's influence has been i'm. perceptible. The women of this state have been voting for years, exercis. ing the privilege through the domi. nant political parties, but always with a beneficent and powerful in- fluence in shaping party policies with respect to the concerns of the home, the family and the protection of women in business and industry.
 Labor has been heard from in this election in no uncertain way but not in response to the demands of organization. The votes of working. men and women in this state and elsewhere throughout the nation have cast with the Republican party and this in absolute disregard of the Democratic instructions of MT, Gompers and the spacious induce. ments to radicalism embodied in the so-called Farmer-Labor pro. gram. Labor, in short, has run away from it's wouldbe political manipulators and has followed the course that has never yet failed to lead to enlivenment of industry, in. creased opportunity for employ.

THINGS WE THINK Things Others Think and What We Think of the Things Others Think.

Chinese eggs may be the American farmers yellow peril
 It may have been the high cost of living that drove the prodigal son home.
 We notice that folks who know it all have just as much curiosity as we have.
 The person who shocks you doesn't necessarily have a magnetic personality.
 The way to keep a boy on the farm is to have a neighbor with a plump, good looking daughter.
 The person who cans get up an appetite without an appetizer al ready has an appetite he cant satis- fly.
 Why should a red-blooded Ameri- can girl lower herself by marrying one of the bloody blue blooded for eigners?
 Men like to marry widows be- cause they have had experience and won't be expecting as much as the virgin who has never had her ideas shattered.
 The man who said there is no con. nection between poverty and crime must be right. There are many times more bankers in jail than newspaper men.
 The get-together spirit is suscep- tible of misconstruction. It is pos possible to get together in way that could not in any way be consid- cred cooperation.
 Many men get good deal of credit trying tQ do something they can't accomplish which, of course, disgusts those who are too ornery or too lazy to try.
 The person who can hear his name mentioned by two persons talking in low tones and still have no curiosity as to what the conversation is about, is too everlastingly compla- cent to be worth a whoop.

ment, dependable wages and stable conditions. In such a manifestation of political independence there is no indication that labor would break down it's trades organizations, but it is a clear assertion that labor will not be used in any manner contrary to it's own perception of what is best.
 In this state we have no segrega- ton of the foreign-born vote. Hyphenated Americanism, never pronouncedly prevalent, disappeared utterly with the war The indica, tions are that the great majority of our adopted citizens joined with the great majority of the native born in rolling up the huge Republican to. tals. In so doing we have no doubt they were influenced by the League of Nations proposals and their na- tural desire that the concerns of this country shall never be indissolubly complicated in the quarrels of the lands they left behind them.
 It was an American, rather than a Republican victory, and in it's achievement the votes of the wo- men, of labor and of the truly Amer icanized citizens of foreign birth, helped mightily.-Seattle Post-Intel. ligencer
