ment of water power the taxpayers
/ OF Seattle have been fleeced and
provides in his initiative measure a
means whereby the Fleeing may be
extended to the taxpayers of the
state as a whole.
Seattle's Skagit River experience
and Mr.. Erickson's own statements
are the best arguments this paper
knows of why the initiative measure
should be defeated.
AS matter of fact Mr.. Erickson
has unconsciously barred the inherent
weakness of every public ownership
scheme-waste and extravaganza,
due to the incompetency of men chos-
en- through the uncertain process of
the ballot box. What assurance can
Mr.. Erickson give the voters of the
state that they will be more FORUM
ate than Seattle, and not draw a
Hanson or Brown to head the pub
lie utility districts and thereby be
made the victims Of absurd estimates
by engineers, princely donations to
contractors, and a raft of unneces-
sary employees?

Vegetable Origin.

Interesting studies have been made
by Monh on the earliest forms Of life

Of these, the lake Of the Seracs. has
been created within human memory.
and it seems to justify the statement
that the first living forms inhabit-
Ing lakes are of vegetable nature.
Only five living species are found In

plants and four of the order Of d.

are, first, the appearance of diatoms
absorbing carbonic acid dissolved in

Of simple animal organisms, such as
rhizopods, whose nourishment depends
upon the pre-existing vegetable forms.

A great treat is In store for the low

Twain. Persons living nowadays never
will know. what the master wrote In
this story, for it is sealed and is not to

The Harpers, who are moving their
printing house from Franklin street to
their new building uptown, possess the
precious manuscript. In moving desks

WHEN A GIRLS ENGAGED

When girl has just become en-
gagged she is scarcely responsible for
her actions, is she? One can forgive
her if she is bit talkative and ex-
tremely communicative. Mr.. PIN
didn't quite understand what had hap
pened to Dinah last night. IF he mad,
probably he wouldn't have been quite
SO uneasy when Dinah wanted to tell
him so many interesting things. But
she just had to tell somebody all about
the wonderful thing which had taken
place, and since Mr.. PIN inspired SO
much confidence, naturally he had to
listen. Besides, he was very lucky.
for no one else had been told. If
Dinah hadn't told quite so many other
family secrets Mr.. PIN wouldn't have
got things so terribly mixed. Mr..
Milne, the author of 'Mr. PIN Passes
By" keeps us very much amused and
interested in getting the Marden fam
lily out of the difficulties which Mr..
PIN so unwittingly brought on them.

OVER IN SEATTLE

THE approaching mayoralty con-
j test in. Seattle is of more than
usual interest to the people of the
state in general. Statewide interest
comes from the fact that the chief
eontenders for Seattle's high office
are Mayor Brown, the present encum-
bent and Oliver T. Erickson, author
Of the proposed initiative measure
Known as the Erickson Superpower
Bill.
Mayor Brown and Mr.. Erickson
are both ardent advocates of public
ownership of utilities. So, it is rather
surprising to know that public own
ership is to be the issue around which
the campaign is to be fought.
In his opening attack on Mayor
Brown, Mr.. Erickson says, eff we
are able to raise sufficient funds 20
complete the George Creek plant, we
shall be fortunate. Then the people
will learn how the engineers and
Mayors Hanson and Brown have VIC
timized them on the Skagit develop
ment." He charges, absurd original
estimates by the city's engineers, de-
plorable waste during construction,
princely donations to the contractors,
and raft of unnecessary employees.
The only Interpretation this paper
can put upon Mr.. Erickson's state
ments is that he proposes, by means
Of his initiative measure, to do to
the state what Mayor Hanson, Brown
and Erickson. who for years was
chairman of the city's public utilities
committee, have done to Seattle. He
charges that through public develop
