EVOLUTION OF MODERN
ALL-YEAR ROUND ROAD

It is interesting to watch the de-
velopment of a modern road system
The writer has in mind through the
coast mountains in Oregon.
For rs years this country was
practically inaccessible six months Of
the year to anything but a man on
horseback or an empty wagon, due to
muddy roads.
In the last five years, however,
roads through this section have been
graded and macadamized and in a
single day in July the number of au-
tomobiles that made the trip from
the interior valleys to beach resorts
over one of the roads numbered into
the thousands.
Farmers can take their products
to the trains and the country has been
opened up for settlement. The result
is that traffic is so heavy that it will
probably be cheaper to pave the ma
cadam in a few short years than keep
il in repair. The crushed rock
which has been thoroughly packed
by heavy traffic, will make an excel
lent base for an asphaltic concrete
wearing surface without further
heavy cost for preparing q base.

ment against this contributed very
directly toward bringing on the Civil
war.
Unpopular Decisions
Some years ago, BY a five to four
decision, the y. S. supreme court
held the income tax law to be un-
constitutional in principle. The popu-
lar protest against this decision was
instantaneous; but it took eighteen
years to amend the U. S. Constitution
and undo the work of one judge.
Still more recently the same court
has twice declared-once by a 5 to
4 decision-that laws to protect child
labor were unconstitutional; and it
viii require another constitutional
amendment to wipe this blot from our
national record.
The same court also held by to
4 decision that dividends paid in the
form of stock were not subject to sur
tax or income tax as cash dividends
would be; and has uniformly invali-
dated all laws attempting to regulate
wages.
State Court flinders
Our own state supreme court has
similar record:
The referendum law has been ma
terially crippled by the decision that
statute cannot be submitted to q
referendum vote of the people when
the legislature declares that an emer-
gency exists requiring that it take ef-
feet at once. And the court was ut
terly deaf to the argument that the
state had existed for half a century
without feeling the need of such a
statute.
The court has also limited the
rights of the people in initiating leg
islation, by holding that the purpose
of an act cannot lawfully be declared
J in the preamble, although this prac-
tice by the legislature has been CON-
mended as a means of showing the
legislative intent. In other words

pie, who are supreme, cannot do

ELECT LABOR'S CHOICE
SUPREME COURT JUDGES

Both our state and federal consti-
buttons provide for three distinct de-
partments Of government, each in
dependent of the other. The legisla-
tive department makes our laws. The
judicial department interprets them;
and the executive department en-
forces them. AS a safeguard against
hasty and ill-considered legislation
the chief executive is given the power
to veto any law; but If upon second
reflection the legislature still adheres
to its views, it may still pass the
law over such veto. This, in q word,
is our American plan Of government
as it is known the world over.
From time to time we have passed
laws to safeguard the people against
abuses in both the legislative and ex-
ecutive departments. The direct pri-
mary law is designed to secure more
democratic control over the nomina-
ton of candidates. The initiative
law gives the people the right to mi
tiate their own laws-and because it
comes directly from the people even
the chief executive cannot veto an
initiative law. The refendum law
in effect gives the people the right
to veto finally any Legislative statute.
And the recall enables the people to
remove any exeutivce officer who
does not obey their will. The gen.
eral tendency and purpose Of all these
laws is plain. All alike, they bring
the people into closer and more direct
contact with their government by in
creasing their powers and response
bilities. And this is the very essence
of democracy.
No Curb on Judges
But it will be observed that the ju-
dicial department is still left standing
apart. There is no popular method Of
initiating or controlling Judge made
law" nor Of recalling either the
judges or their decisions, and ever
since the now infamous Dred-Scoti
decision the feeling has been steadily
growing among our people that our
judges are not sufficiently respon-
sive to their needs and wills. This
can be both illustrated and explained
by brief reference to a few Of the de-
cisions Of our highest national and
state courts:
By the Dred-Scott decision, already
referred to, the U. S. supreme court
nullified all the fugitive slave laws
which had been passed by the North
ern states and the popular resent
Southwest Washington labor press. [volume] (Hoquiam, Wash.) 19??-19??, 1924-08-29

sand, sawdust, oat hulls, etc, was
also held unconstitutional because it
was "class legislation"
The law of 1921 regulating fees for
the publication of legal notices was
held constitutional, but the whole
purpose and effect of the act was de-
stroyed by judicial construction.
Our theory of Checks and ball
ances" in government works out very
well except in case Of the court. The
executive can veto acts of the legisla-
tive branch. The court can place a
veto upon the action Of both, but no
body has a check on the supreme
court. It is in fact supreme. The
president, who appoints the judges,
has no power to remove them. In the
state, supreme court judges are ex-
cepted from the provisions of the re-
call.
The. rule that "a good judge en-
larges his jurisdiction" has been con-
sistently followed by the courts I'M
til they exercise a wholly dispropor-
tionate power in government, and
popular discomfort and distruct of the
courts have become widespread. The
way to inspire confidence in the
courts is to make them worthy of con-
fidence by placing men in judicial
positions who will give effect to the
will of the people as expressed in
Legislative acts.
In protest against this abuse Of
power by the court those who are the
chief sufferers by it, namely, organ
lied labor adm the farmers, have in
dorsed Judge William H. Pemberton
w. D. Lane and Judge Bruce Blake
for the purpose of defeating Judge
Main and Judge Mitchell for reel
ton. One or hte other or both Of
these judges have signed about al
the decisions from which labor anC
the farmers have had to suffer ii
recent years.
Judge Pemberton has served as su'
perior court judge of Whatcom cOun'
ty and for the past two years as 6
Judge of the supreme court. In the
short time that he has been in Olym
pia he has shown that he is the kline
of man needed on the supreme court
bench.
w. D. Lane of Seattle, is lawyer
of twenty-six years practice, of which
twenty years has been in this city
As a member of the legislature anC
the city council he has stood for hu
manity and justice, and proved hi
fidelity to the public interests.
Judge Bruce Blake is highly es
teemed as a superior court judge o.
Spokane county. and has a well-earn
ed reputation as an able, upright anC
fearless judge.
Progressive voters cannot do bet
ter than vote for these three. A vOt'
for any other candidate is against al
of these. A split ticket is wasted

Thus does a thinly settled section
of the country gradually acquire an
all-year-rOund road which develops
the country SO rapidly, that q practi-
cal and comparatively inexpensive
hard surface treatment is required
within a few years after the original
road was built.
It is almost safe to say that the
country can grow no faster than its
roads and it is interesting to watch
the evolution of a highway from the
mud hole stage to the paved surface.

EMERGENCY SOUPS OF
BACON AND POTATOES
Dish Can Usually Be Made
of Materials on Hand.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agricuture.)
Every housekeeper is familiar with
the sudden and unexpected need for an
addition to the menu, either to fill out
a meager supply of other foods or to
take care of extra persons by making
everything go little farther. A very
good way to accomplish this last end
is TO have an appetlzing and filling
soup, so that by serving slightly small
er portions of meats and vegetables,
another plate may be filed. An ac-
ceptable emergency soup of this kind
can be made of materials usually on
hand, taking only as long to prepare as
sliced potatoes require for cooking
about 10 minutes. 1t will also supply
additional meat and vegetables. The
recipe has been tested by the United
States Department of Agriculture.
To serve six people peel and cut up
in small pieces two medium-sized po-
tatoes and start them cooking in one
quart of boiling salted water. Mean
time fry two thin slices of bacon crisp;
take them out of the pan, and in the
same fat cook slowly two tablespoon
fuls of minced onion for five minutes,
or until tender. When the potatoes
are done. take them out of the water
and mash them, use some of the
mashed potato to blend with the bacon
fat and onion, gradually adding all of
it, and finally the water in which the
potatoes were cooked. Cut the bacon
into very small pieces. add 1t to the

desired. hut the bacon and potato soup
is appetlzing without other flavor.

be used to boil with cabbage and
other vegetables for boiled dinner.

Demonstration Club
Make Horsehide Coat

An excellent coat was recently made
of horsehide by member of home
demonstration club In Oklahoma, ac
cording to report received by the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture All the members of the club con-
suited and planned with her when the
coat was cut out, so that her work was
q valuable demonstration to all the
members.
When cutting out the coat she first
laid the pattern down on the outside
of the skin so as to be able to tell
how the hair lay and make 1t all go
in one direction. When the pattern
had been married. at the corners with
coarse needles she turned the inside
up to do the cutting. A sharp razor
was used for cutting the skin, as scis-
sors will cut the hair. A five-inch
border of skin was used on the bot
tom. The hair ran differently on this
strip and the color varied slightly 30
that, with turn-back collar and lapels
of the fur, the coat, which she con-
sidered worth at least $50. was very
attractive. The expense for tanning
was SO, and there was q slight expense
for sateen lining.
Veal, lamb, and goat skins can be
made into very useful, attractive, and
marketable articles. Veal or cowhide
tanned smooth without the hair is
made up effectively into coats or
sleeveless jumpers with hats to match.
