a publicly-owned plant of sufficient size
to care for all the business now being
handled by the private company?
Do you see now why the private COM
pany should be willing to spend thou
sands of dollars, if necessary, to. get con-
troll of the city's plant? Or why nothing
could suit the private company better
than to see the business of. the city
owned plant so conducted that it could
not survive?
The Associated Industries Seattle's
Big Business-has backed a council
manic slate-Cohen, Conner, Carroll and
Campbell.
Cohen and Conner. according to the tip
from the insiders" are the men Big
Business is anxious to put over. Big
Business has tied them up with Carroll
and Campbell whose standing in the pri-
maries insured them of being sure-fire
winners in the finals, in order that they
might sweep the whole alliterative quar-
tet into office together
Carroll and Campbell are both staunch
public ownership advocates, and Big
Business indorses them only because it
realizes that they are bound to win any
how, and that by the strategy of coupling

(EDITORIAL)

DROWN or Lundin?
ID It's only side issue in the election
Tuesday.
: The real issue, Mr. Voter-the BIG
thing that your ballot will decide-is
Will Seattle's public ownership pro-
gram win or will the Power Trust?
That's why the selection of mayor
atty candidate, who, after all, in the mat
ter of protecting our public utilities, is
merely a figure-head, is of secondary
Importance.
That's why it is essential that we elect
city councilmen who are not backed by
the Power Trust and other Big Business.
For it is in the hands of the city council
that the safety of our public ownership
program lies
Seattle has sunk S11 100000 into
municipality owned power plant on the
Skagit river. 1t is plant that, when the
present unit is entirely finished, will cost
S30,000,000. 1t is plant that will enable
the city to furnish all the power needed
by Seattle.
Does that mean anything to you? Does
it mean anything to the private power
interests, this bringing to completion of

up the other candidates with the ALTER
ative names, they might be able to let
Carroll and Campbell carry the other
two thru.
The Star has made careful examina-
ton of the concilmanic candidates and
their records, as to public ownership
the big issue in the election.
And, to the voters who would vote
against the private interests and in
favor of Seattle's utilities for Seattle, it
earnestly advises:
That Cohen and Conner be defeated.
THAT NICHOLS, MOORE, CAR
ROLL and CAMPBELL be elected.
Public ownership is at stake Nichols,
Moore, Carroll and Campbell will pro-
tect it.
The Star also believes it for the best
interests of Seattle, Mr.. Voter for
you to:
Vote for the Port Site bonds.
Vote for the Spokane st. Bridge
bonds.
Vote for the Montlake S a u m
Bridge bonds.
All of these are essential. We must
have them. If we don't get them by bond
issue, we must get them by other means.
And that will mean higher taxes.

Driver Escapes
Injury When Steering
Geer Goes Wrong y

A peculiar accident which luckily
resulted in no injury to the driver OF
the car occurred about 2.3O o'clock
wednesday morning on the Water
vile road about II miles from this
city. A car driven by Paul McLaugh-
lin, salesman for the f. II. Bish Ad-
vertising Co. of Boston, swerved
around in the road when the steer
ing gear gave away and when it was
stopped was headed in the opposite
direction from that which it had
been travelling.
Mr.. Mclaughlin was coming to-
ward this city at the time of the ac-
cident. when he heard the sound of
an automobile horn behind him. He
turned out for the car and as it was
almost abreast OF him the horn was
again sounded. Thinking that they
would force him from the road, Mr..
Mclaughlin turned out a little more
when suddenly the steering gear
snapped and the car swerved around
into the road behind the car which
had been passing him. When it STOP
ped it was headed toward Waterville
but had not overturned
The wishbone of the car was
found to be broken and one steer
ing rod was snapped. An autobozile
owned by the kennebec Journal and
driven by Eddie Haskell. which was
carrying the papers to Waterville to
connect there with the east bound
trains. came along shortly after the
accident and took Mr.. McLaughlin in.
taking him to Waterville and then
back to this city for which he had
been headed at the time of the acct
dent. 1t was found impossible to
tow the car in as the wheels were
"dished' because of the broken wish
bone.
