BCTLER'S TREATMENT
 OF HIS HOST

Br.gadier- General Smedley D. Butler, the marine chief who was loaned to Philadelphia by the gov crnment In futile effort 10 clean up the city of brotherly love, ap- pears to have unique ideas in more ways than one, his latest idiosyn- crasy hobbing forth when he caused the arrest of his host, Colonel Alexander Williams, at San Diego, Calif., on a charge of serving drinks at the party in honor of the briga- general.
 Irrespective of what one thinks of the practice of serving drinks at q party during these prohibition days, it would have been the acme of wisdom for General Butler to overlook this little point under the circumstances. If the general didn't like the drinks he could have asked for water. There was no need to pose as a fanatical puritan and virtually slap the face of the man who was cndoavoring to honor the general
 Colonel Williams was giving the party in his own way, and it would have been good sportsmanship and good taste for the guest of honor 10 forget it as soon as possible if by chance he did not approve Of the method.
 TO cause the arrest of ones host is a new thing in marine corps ethics.

A WOMAN MAYOR
IN SEATTLE

Conducting her campaign upon the need for reforming Seattle, Mrs, Bertha K. LNndcs. wife of a college professor, has been elected mayor Of that Dustling Pacific metropolis, That she will be a very active re- former can be judged from her past performance as acting mayor, when during the regular mayors ab- scence from the city she fired" his police chief,
 That there will be many new brooms sweeping around the Seat tlo city hall and municipal depart ments after sho takes office Is q certainty
 Yet in spite of her victory in the battle for reform, she got ma jority of only G,00O votes out Of 00,000 cast. There seems 10 be q large proportion of citizens in Seat tie who care nothing for reform,
 A woman will become mayor of the city, but her victory meant the loss of one great reform that by many will bo regarded as of more importance than the political and social reforms the woman mayor has in mind. Her victory meant the defeat Of the plan to change the government to the city man ager plan, which lost by only 100 votes.
 By concentrating too much on minor reforms we sometimes lose sight Of the bigger ones.
 But Seattle, the first large city 10 have a woman mayor, will en- joy some degree of distinction. In the long run, however, this distinc- ton may not mean as much to citizens generally as the adoption of the city manager plan would have meant.

A BABY, TOY AND CANDY CAMPAIGN.

The plan Of the Democratic party Of this city to make arrangements for caring for babies while their mothers go to the city hall 10 re- ceive the oaths Of voters Is injecting some commen1able human interest into the campaign. How many mothers will avail themselves of the privilege Of having their Soungsters taken care Of while they take the oath remains to be seen, but no doubt there will be a sufficient num- bor to justify the unique election eering system.
 The Republicans, of course, will havo to counter with something equally in line with human inter est or homo life. Getting the wom- an vote" is nothing 10 be over looked. We may discover, therefore that the Republicans likewise will become child wardens or guardians this year. and could force the Dem ocrats 10 go even further in their courting Of the female vote by offering to give toys and candy 10 the children while their mothers went to the city hall.
 The baby, toy and candy husi- ness in politics will be greatly ap- preciated -- at least by tho young sters. who may not know what t is all about but will not permit that to interfere with their enjoy ment Of this y-product Of the po- litical situation.

WOODS REPORT ON TIE \. < J. AFFAIR

Prosecuting Attorney J, c, Woods has made his finding on the aecI- dent at the North X Judd annealing building after Investigating the causes for a period Of about a month, Ho has been most thorough in his inquiry, if elapsed time Is an indication Of thoroughness, and ms decided that there Is no re- sponsibillty for the death Of eight men and that there will be no prosecution Of factory officials for negligence,
 CandidlN we lo not sco that ho could arrive at any other conclu- sion. There was no permit taken out for repairs to tho building, This is admitted, Mr Woods might hale someone into court and have him fined five dollars or so for failure 10 take out a permit for altera- uons. Small consolation that would be for eight deaths.
 Tho collapse of the building can not be traced to failure to take out permit, that is certain, IL prob- ably never could be proven that the alterations made without q permit were responsible for the collapse, even if they were.
 We do not believe that the prosecuting attorney has any desire 10 "whitewash" the North & Judd officials. He would not have started an investigation in the first place had he been imbued with that wish. He has undoubtedly done the best he could to get justice. or prosetu- ton, If there was grounds for it. We may grieve heartily for the viC- tins and their survivors, the re- sponse to an appeal for relief funds was sufficiently generous to prove that the public did sympathize with the families, and we may still realize that there was no person to blame for the collapse of the build ing. Granted there was there is no way of placing the blame where 1t should be placed.
 II is inconceivable that any fac tory should be so careless of it's physical property, even if it were not of the lives of it's workmen, that it would deliberately place it. self in a position where 1t would have to stand Q great property loss from an accident. Factories are not built on that principle, If careless ness is responsible for an accident, then the careless one should De traced out and punished, but that is a difficult matter,
 The Fuller brush accident in Hartford is an Illustration of efforts to trace responsibility. A tower collapsed in a new building con ncctod with that plant. The invos- tigation was carried on and the blame was finally laid upon dead man. if we remember correctly. ! And that was that.
