His declaration that ne Is going

One of the things that rifles
Spokane Is the reiterated state

vote against purchase by the city
of the Washington Water Power
electric plant here was a direct
slap at federal development of
power at Grand Coulee. A. the
story is told here, rejection OF the
proposal. which was backed by
the public utility district group,
was due entirely to the fact that
one group put on a more eonvinc-

During Month
April Wos Short
On Roinfull Here

Ultraviolet rays were free and
plentiful last month though they
cost the city's gardeners plenty
in extra sprinkling, according to
Meteorological Fred Myers report
for April which was released
Friday.
Records of the weather bureau
here showed 1857 hours OF sun
shine in April this year where the
normal is 1877 hours-that out
of a possible 40s.5. 1t wasn't any
new record. Myers noted, because
April in 1925 cleaned with 322
hours OF sunshine. 81 per cent to
this years 63 per cent. But the
month In 1882 saw only SO per
cent of the possible sunshine.
A drenching shower April ! and
some lighter ones In the week that
followed were the only salvation
last month from a real drought.

The month ended 1.23 inches under
normal rainfall and with an &C
cumulated loss OF rainfall of 7.62
inches since the first Of the year
Last year Tacoma was behind only
.e3 at this time.

BY Il. T. SHORT

SPOKANE This two-day stop
on the Adelphian itinerary IL torn
by conflicting emotions. Quite a
considerable part OF the Spokane
population IL inclined to pay hon.
age 10 the New Deal which, sup
plemented by the efforts of Rufus
Woods and Jim O'Sullivan, built
Coulee dam. Business coming di-
rectly from that activity was the
chief influence that lifted Spokane
out of the dependency Of the de-
preston.
Another considerable element
admits that Grand Coulee has been
. good thing and Is going to be
better. but doesn't see In that any
reason for continued allegiance to
the New Deal.
This theory was considerably
strengthened when Fred Baker,
Gov. Arthur Langlie's campaign
manager. came here Tuesday with
the message that the governor
was sending him through the state
for the purpose OF welding Repub-
lican county organizations into a
harmonious state group. Along
with the welding process there Is
TO be q drafting OF the most
capable Republican," for the posi-
tions to be filled By Gov. Langlie
20 that At the end OF this admin
istration the people will say, I'VE
want more of that kind of govern
ment"
That theory IL mighty pleasing
to Republican eiigibles, but liber-
ais who voted for Gov. Langlie on
his record as mayor of Seattle and
because he was a Christian gen
tleman," are not particularly
happy.

lation for the benefit of their con-
stituents who are the voters Of the
entire state. On top of all this, you
will find plenty of rooms of entertain
ment sustained by the major corpora
lions in the Placer hotel, where the
boys can get free refreshments for
the mere asking.
In my opinion, this is a fine situa-
ton existing in a democratic form of
government. Billy Rae and his gang
are as busy around the Capitol build
ing as a bird dog in the brush, regi-
menting and lining up every individ-
ual that it is possible to do. The facts
are, there appear to be almost as
many lobbyists around the state house
as there are representatives It is
high time that some legislation should
be passed to limit the number of lob
byists and also have every man that
is doing any lobbying around the Capt.
tol building register and make a pub
lie record of whom he represents and
whom he is lobbying for, so the public
may know some of the inside facts Of
what is going on behind the scenes
at our state legislative session.

members of both houses are strongly
in favor of fair government and will

we do not have to be inventors of
high sounding phrases and heroic plat
itudes to know that production of
these vital implements are not being
speeded as rapidly as available ia
cilities and mechanics are able to do

and the President only at this time,
has the power. to speed these vital

he demand of congress more and more

goes unexercised by the administra-
tive chief, while production languishes
and the alarm goes out, "Hitler is

democracy"
According to my way of thinking,
the most heroic challenge that our in

the teeth of the European dictators
and the American lords of wealth and
profits is stop manufacturing and pill

Having visited Helena for the sec
ond time since the legislature has
been in session, which is practically
three weeks, it is very evident to the
layman that very little has been done
The machinery of legislation has beer
slowed up to the point where little
has been accomplished. This, in my
estimation, is due primarily to the
leadership in the House of Representa-
tives.
In order to gain control of the House
the present speaker promised various
individuals chairmanships of different
committees and likewise memberships
of various committees to individual
MEMBERS to support E. j. Stromnes for
speaker of the House.
l heard one member state that his
committee had been in session five
times and up to the present had not
done anything, which is evidence that
the present organization wants little
done, and then at the last minute there
will be a flood of bills which cannot
possibly be given the proper consider
alton and most of them will be thrown
out or rejected while a very few,
worked out in the interest of the ma
jor corporations, will be slipped
through and passed.
: 1t appears to the layman that this
first three weeks has been a contin-
uous round of pleasure for the legis-
lators. First the Montana Mining
Association put on banquet, and
while it is true that few members
of the Mining Association bought tick
cts at $500 per, which included them
selves and one member, the whole as
sembly was invited and the major cor
porations took care of the expense.
Then they were given another ban
quet where they were wined and dined
to keep them in good humor and SYM
pathetic with the major corporations
interests. This past week end they
were all invited to Butte by the Butte
Chamber of Commerce for another big
celebration and visit to the Butte
mines, and it is very evident who is
standing this expense. We are adj
vised that later on they are going to
be taken to Billings for another winning
and dining, which is great stuff when
these men are selected and paid by

Sincerely yours,
A. ]. PLUMER.

Dear Sir:
| would not like to see the repeal
of our "direct primary" law
Conventions are much easily con
trolled by good machine and under
our present law the machine is not
so powerful.
Take the split in labor today. l be-
lieve if labor leaders had adopted the
primary system, this would have never
happened. We all know once a man
gets the power to control the machine
it is hard for him to let some one
else take it over.
| believe that many of our political
leaders" were very mucsh disguised
the way our political machine was
used in both democrat and republican
conventions.
Very truly yours,
