The more easily defeating him at the general election. This has been repeatedly done in elections held since the passage of the direct primary law and this weak feature should be strengthened by the present assembly. In view of the fact that the Republican party is the dominant party of the state and naturally gets the worst of other partisans suddenly becoming Republican at the primary election and then as suddenly returning to their own party as soon as they have done their dirty work, leading Republicans are of the opinion that, when a voter registers he should declare his politics so that when he applies to vote in the primary election he would either have to vote as he had registered or not vote at all. This modus procedure is by no means pleasing to the rank and file of the Democratic party because they have all to gain and nothing to lose by voting one ticket in the primary election and voting another ticket in the general election. In certain parishes of Louisiana a vigilance committee has been organized and it is doing its work jam up. Heretofore the work of the vig- n the direct right of can- There is still another very lame feature in the direct primary law and it is none other than the right of candidates to advertise their candidacy in newspapers and periodicals. This is a newspaper age and persons seeking political preferment will, in spite of all that can be said, attempt to get publicity through the press and if they can not get it by legitimate means they will get it just the same. The present law says candidates for office may advertise if the same be marked paid advertisement and then a few lines below says they shall not advertise. The law should be so amended as to leave no doubt as to the candidate's right to advertise or not advertise in the newspapers. Cut the right of advertisinig in newspapers completely out or give candidates the legal right to do so if they so desire.

The successful candidate for the Republican nomination for mayor of Seattle one year ago did not receive to exceed 24 per cent of the vote cast, which was not a fair expression. He should have received at least 40 per cent or a majority on second choice. All a strong candidate for a county or a city nomination need to do to make his nomination certain is to induce a half dozen or more candidates to get into the fight that the vote be split so that 15 or 20 per cent of the vote cast would prove a plurality. The average citizen of this state has perhaps never stopped to think that any one of four men may be the governor for at least the next two Next Governorship Somewhat in Doubt The measures that will occupy the attention of the legislature uppermost to all others will be first: The local option bill.

Governor Albert E. E. Hay and Retiring While Mr. Cosgrove will be governor for Governor Albert E. Mead, Lieutenant Governor-elect M. E. Hay and Retiring Lieutenant Governor Charles E. Coon. While Mr. Cosgrove has the first right to the office and will be governor for the ensuing four years if his health permits it, yet if his health is such that he will be unable to come to the state to take the oath of office then Mead will continue to discharge the duties of the office until he is. If a still more fatal calamity should befall him before taking the oath of office then Gov. Mead would continue as governor for two years. If, however, Mr. Cosgrove in due time arrives in Olympia and is inaugurated governor then in case of poor health or death Mr. Hay would either be acting governor or governor in fact. But quo warranto proceedings have been filed against Mr. Hay with the view of disqualifying him from holding the office of lieutenant governor and if the supreme court should rule adversely to him then Lieutenant Governor C. E. Coon would continue to hold on to that office and of course fall heir to any honors that would come to Mr. Hay in case of any misfortune to Mr. Cosgrove. It will thus be seen that the politician seeking a gubernatorial appointment is traveling an uncertain road and had better make haste slowly. It is hoped, however, by every man, woman and child in the state that Mr. Cosgrove has seen the worst of his troubles, and from now all will be sunshine with him. While the present legislature will not attempt to repeal the direct primary law, yet it will make strenuous efforts to cure what many leading Republicans consider very lame points, and thereby try to conform it to more practical usages.

The eleventh legislature of the state of Washington is now doing business at the old stand, and while it is to an extent lacking in the general bustle and excitement common to former legislatures of the state, which had the election of a United Eleventh Legislature Begins Business. States senator on its hands, yet it is full of energy and bustle and promises to dispatch more business to the square inch of time it will be in session than any of its predecessors. The respective members of the legislature have about decided to completely eliminate polities in its workings and do those things that will redound to the greatest good to the greatest number and to that end Harmony has been adopted as the watch word. Nothing is more indicative of the fact that, the present session of the legislature will be a genuine business one than the announcement of Lieutenant Governor Hay that Will G. Graves, a rank Democrat, will be chairman of the judiciary committee of the senate. Mr. Graves is considered one of the ablest lawyers in the Northwest and in former legislatures has thoroughly demonstrated that he had the good of the state at heart. The judiciary committee is considered the most important one in the senate and it's big concession and a long stride in the direction of harmony when a Republican official hands it over to a Democrat. Another good omen for the present session of the legislature being a genuine business one was shown in the Meigs Unanimously Speaker of House. the nomination of Leonard O. Meigs for speaker. The secretary of the senate cast the unanimous vote of the house for Meigs and he was escorted to the chair amid the enthusiastic applause of the entire membership. Mr. Meigs' speech on that auspicious occasion was no less indicative of the fact that, this is to be a business session of the legislature than everything else that had transpired in the organizing of the legislature, for it was short and sweet and well received. The ceremonies were for but a moment, comparatively speaking, and the house was down to business in a jiffy. While the election of a United States senator, who will succeed Senator Levi Ankeny, will be pulled off within a few days, yet no one is giving that a second thought. In other words, thanks to the direct primary, it is considered among the unimportant things that the present legislature will be will have to pass upon. Harmony is so much the watchword among the members that a move is on foot to have Senator Cotterill to not permit his name to go before the legislature to be voted on for United States senator, but to give the Hon. Wesley L. Jones an unanimous vote and thereby make the state of Washington the banner state in the Union in her harmony of electing a United States senator. It is hoped that Mr. Cotterill will enthusiastically agree to the proposition. Important Things For Legislature. quire a conference of both branches to settle. Secondly, the anti-race track bill, about which little or nothing can be said at this time as the friends of the race course have wisely kept their own counsel. Thirdly, the banking bill, which is still in an embryonic state. Fourthly, the equal suffrage bill for women, which promises sooner or later to raise quite a rumpus. There will be other measures of more or less importance that will come before the body, but none of them will bet the prominence and publicity as those mentioned above.

His recommendations are all good, and it is hoped that the legislature will favorably act on the most of them if not every blessed one of them. His proposition to consolidate the most of the present boards and commissions into one board and reduce the whole to a business basis will meet general approval, though it will hardly be done. It, however, would be a waste of time to pick out one thing above another to especially commend in the message, for as said above all of it was good and so good that it is repeated all of his recommendations to the legislature should be favorably acted upon. Louisiana Does Not Want to Lose Negroes. were accused of crime and who were accused of becoming officious in political circles, but the vigilance committee here referred to is engaged in a different work, it is struggling to keep the Negroes on the farms of those parishes. The Negroes have had so much trouble with the whites in the past that they concluded that they were not wanted and began a quiet exodus that spread so rapidly that the whites discovered that their lands were being completely depopulated and so they set about to beg and persuade the Negroes to remain on the farms. Instead of this vigilance committee being made up of the rowdies from the country as in the past it was made up of the bankers and business men of the cities. Evidently the Negro is not nearly so dangerous an animal after all as some of those whites would have their Northern brethren to understand. A local option law in some form or other will undoubtedly be passed by the present legislature, but it will not be passed until it has been thoroughly thrashed out by the members. The anti-saloon leaguers already have a measure for presentation, which, if passed as presented, would mean practically prohibition for the State of Washington, but the legislature will not put this young state in the list with Maine and Kansas. The Republican platform of the late state convention calls for reasonable local option, but not prohibition, and the party will not be dictated to by the anti-saloon league, which fought a majority of the present members of the legislature, and if the Raymond-Doty crowd had been successful they would have elected a Democratic legislature, which would have sent a Democrat to the senate. The present members of the legislature are mostly fair minded business men, looking to the general welfare of the state, and will carefully consider the present laws, also the charters and ordinances of the incorporated cities and towns, and will then pass a bill that will meet the present conditions and regulate the sale of liquor, but not be an anti-saloon league prohibition measure. The attempt of the prohis to rush a bill through without proper investigation will be supported only by the radical prohibition inclined members. The revenue to the state for the past period of two years has amounted to about $400,000, besides the revenue to the cities, incorporated towns and counties, and the thinking members will not rush to cut off that large amount of revenue at a time when the state is in need of twice the present amount of general revenue. The estimated expense for the next period is $6,000,000.00, and estimated revenue is $3,000,000.00. The Ryan-Cayton Legislative Manual for the Eleventh Legislature of the state of Washington is now being pushed and will be ready for delivery in about thirty days. The manual will be a complete legislative history of not only the present, but the past legislature as well, and the rates exceedingly reasonable. President Castro of Venezuela has been deposed by his subjects and Vice-President Gomez has been named as president.

One Year .....$3.00 Six Months .....1.50 Three Months .....75 Entered at the Postoffice at Seattle as Second Class Mail Matter. Despite Senator B. R. Tillman's housetop protest of public honesty he has been caught knapping by the argus-eyed Theodore Roosevelt and the one-eyed old monster from South Carolina has fallen a thousand per cent in the eyes of the public all over the United States. That he tried to defraud the government on a very large scale by getting into the Oregon land steal is verily believed. That he did defraud the government in a number of petite matters, such as franking his typetwriter from one place to another is an admitted fact, all of which has demonstrated that Tillman is a political hypocrite and the only reason he did not fileh the government was that his plans fell through. What was said in these columns one week ago about the meshes of our government being clogged with thieves is again repeated. If Ben Tillman thinks that he can pull the wool over the eyes of the people of these United States all the time he is greatly mistaken. By circumlocution, dillydallying and the juggling of words and phrases he has vainly endeavored to extricate himself from what to any one else would have been, to say the least, an extremely delicate and embarrassing situation. Nay, more, he has even attempted to cover himself with glory and to cover with ridicule and even scorn our chief executive. His attitude, both past and present in this timber deal, has been placed before the public very clearly and concisely, therefore there can remain no doubt in the public mind just what his intentions were from the beginning and with him admitting the facts as they stand, it us useless to try to convince the people that the main consideration at every stage of the game was anything else but "Tillman," first, last and all the time. The arrest on Tuesday of John Hopkins, by Inspectors Wayland, Backus and Butler is only one more proof of the truth of the much worn but ever useful adage that "Honesty is the best policy." Tampering with Uncle Sam's mails has ever been a piece of dishonesty accompanied with greater hazard than nearly any other. Having previously led a moral and honorable existence much commission must needs be felt for the young man who finds himself face to face with an awful temptation, but a cruel and pitiless public seldom stops to consider what may be the motive prompting the man young in crime to disobey every moral teaching which fond and loving parents have endeavored to inculcate in him, to stifle the promptings of his conscience and to disregard God's law. Senator Joseph Bailey of Texas protested against the printing of the Emancipation Proclamation in the Congressional Record, which reminds us of the man that want- ed to vote for the banishment of Demosthenese because so many persons spoke of him as the just man. We suppose if it had been proposed that the proclamation of the Standard Oil Company be printed in the Congressional Record he would have agreed and if it filled a whole volume he would have been all the more delighted. Bailey has rattled round in the United States senate like a mustard seed in a sixty gallon oil tin accomplishing nothing for any place nor any one save himself. He has grown fabulously wealthy representing himself and having nothing to lose it is perfectly natural that he would try to attract a bit of public attention to himself by kicking a dead man, the memory of whom is stronger a hundred years after he is dead than Bailey's as a member of the senate doing the Don Quixote act. It's just such pin-headed politicians as Joe Bailey, Ben Tillman and Jeff Davis in the United States senate that cause the south to be to the United States the same as Mexico, Venezuela or some other foreign country. It's a long step in the right direction when congress makes a move towards increasing the salary of the president of the United States from $50,000 to $100,000 per year. While that amount seems large enough for the ordinary person to live on the balance of his or her life let along for one year, yet the two situations bear no comparison whatever. The president of the United States is expected to entertain as well as do other things of a public nature, and all on the most elaborate style and it is barely possible that even the amount his salary is being raised to will not be sufficient to do all of those things and leave him any part of his salary as a nest egg when he will retire from the office. In other words, only persons of vast wealth need seek the presidency of the United States or her foreign missions and all because the salary paid is so very small that it is utterly impossible to keep up the dignity of the United States on the salary, and a poor man is unable to give up his time and salary to maintain the dignity of the country he represents at a foreign court. The night riders of Tennessee, who have been on trial for murder, were found guilty by a jury and sentenced to be hanged. As long as the night riders confined their killings to the innocent Negroes those in authority in Tennessee had no complaint to make, but one crime begets another and when some of the white men said and did things that were not pleasing to the night riders they saw no reason why they too should not be regulated and no sooner willed and willed and the execution was but a secondary consideration. That the South has been breeding criminals ever since the lynching spirit has been rife in that section every sensible man foresaw and now it is reaping the results of its criminal schooling. It's a good time now for the Tennessee authorities to call a halt on lynch law and punish the white criminal for murder the same as the black criminal. In August of 1908, Robley D. Evans, U. S. N., was placed upon the retired list, having reached the age limit of 62 years. THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN COME THROUGH TRIBULATIONS. The-Richer-Than-Club in America is steadily on the increase. Among its members is one Thomas Barlow Walker, who began his business career at the lowest round, but has tenaciously elimbed until he is today a Timber King with holdings amounting to about two million acres. In Xenia, Ohio, many years ago, young Walker began a small but profitable business of berry picking in the summer and newspaper selling in the winter. Quitting this he took up a clerkship. Later he went on the road as a traveling salesman. This was rather a rough road to success for a young lad, but it fitted him for the strenuous moments in life which face every business man sooner or later. To find one's self in a city without friends, without capital or credit, and to feel that it is imperative that a business venture be made, is a serious proposition for a man of ripe years, but for a lad of nineteen summers as was Thomas B. Walker, when he reached Paris, Illinois, it must have been a herculean undertaking. His actions, however, betrayed no misgivings, for he signed a contract to furnish the Terre Haute & St. Louis Railway Company with cross ties and other lumber. His business prospered and would have been a great success had it not been that the railway company failed in a little more than a year afterwards. Having finished a college course just after quitting the road as salesman, young Walker, ever resourceful, taught school until he could find something more in his line to do. A surveyor's job was the next thing which appealed to him. At this he worked for some time. After his marriage he settled in Minneapolis, where a chance but happy acquaintance with James J. Hill, who was then a wharf clerk, was the means of much assistance and encouragement. Walker soon saw the possibilities in the timberland of the Northwest and decided to make the state his permanent home. Seven hundred and fifty thousand acres of the finest sugar pine and yellow pine on the upper Sierra Nevada Mountains in Northern California also go to swell out Mr. Walker's business which his five sons are running for him. Having reached sixty-eight years of age this plain, quiet man now confines the major part of his time to picture collecting and pottery connoisseuring. One of the most commendable things about Walker is that he has set apart a large wing of his house for an art gallery and the public has thereby free access to some of the world's most famous paintings. A little more than $3,000,000 is what the United States pays a year for the maintenance of its Indian schools. When Miss Estelle Reel, a native of Pittsfield, Illinois, but who spent the greater portion of her life in Wyoming, sought to be elected superintendent of Indian schools, she met with much opposition on account of her sex. Frequently tracts of land belonging to the Government must be auctioned to prospective lessees. This is the duty of the superintendent of schools and was strongly advanced to discourage I HAVE A BEER OF QUALITY IT'S Rainier BEER SEATTLE BREWING & MALTING CO. SEATTLE, WASH., U.S.A. Guardian Life INSURANCE CO. OF SEATTLE Miss Reel's election. She won out in the contest for the office and has since proven that a woman can successfully manage all affairs entailed upon the office of superintendent of Indian schools. Miss Reel has mastered the languages of the various tribes and speaks with them freely. Prior to this position she served consecutively as district superintendent of schools in Cheyenne, Wyoming, county and state superintendent. There are two hundred and eighty-one schools aggregating an attendance of 30,639 pupils under her care. There are also 2,417 employees under her direction, 572 of whom are Indians. The reports show a steady increase in the school attendance, although there is a growing desire among the reservation Indians for day schools, so as not to be separated from their children. The peculiar condition of affairs pertaining to the rapid development of any settlement naturally calls for some master hand to guide that advancing, reckless and ever changing spirit—public sentiment. When Kansas City was but a scattered town of 40,000 settlers who transacted their business on and near the mouth of the river Kaw, with but little regard of civic ideals, a leader in the person of William Rockhill Nelson, from Fort Wayne, Ind., arrived in their midst. In Nelson, Kansas City had a man of a positive disposition and a tenacious determination. His business ventures had never been very successful and at the time of his arrival he had but a few thousand dollars. Sizing up the outlook he saw that a city of beauty and power could be made out of the crooked roads and uneven rows of scattered houses. He there and then determined to issue a newspaper—the creator and promoter, the ever ready champion of public spirit. Hence the birth of Kansas City Star. With its first issue—a small but hopeful four-sided shee—came also the birth of the "Kansas City Spirit." Every movement for the city's improvement found a ready advocate in Nelson's Star. Yet the indefatigable editor was not a man to wait for other men's ideas FRIDAY. JANUARY 15. 1909 to work upon. He was a man of great idealism and the Star soon began to be looked upon as a guide to the improvements necessary to the making of a great city. A progressive man with numerous plans and hobbies is often just what a slow town lacks, but every one does not realize that fact. So when the Star persistently advocated municipal parks and municipal improvements it was at first derided. After a fifteen years' fight in each succeeding legislature or court he won and Kansas City thereby is ahead of all other American cities in the comprehensive system of its parks. Seven daily papers for ten cents a week was also a departure introduced by Mr. Nelson, who a few years later bought out The Kansas City Times, the largest morning contemporary, and then proceeded to issue the two papers for the price of one, offering thirteen papers for ten cents a week. The mill which turns out the paper for these papers is located in Kansas City and was built and is owned by Nelson. Eugene Fields, who at the time was working on the Kansas City Times, one morning good naturedly called Mr. Nelson "Colonel," and the title stays with him until today. It has been twenty-eight years since this man came to Kansas and during that time he has given his best in effort and brain work and what that meant for Kansas City the older class of people never tire of telling. Nelson owns the finest residence in the city and to his city he gave its first art gallery. Now sixty-seven yaers old, Mr. Nelson is not ambitious for the many political honors proffered him: his paper and his interests in the further development of his city form the goal of his desires. The construction of a four-track railway arch bridge of 1,000 feet span across the East River at Hell Gate, after having been postponed on account of the recent financial stringency, is about to be undertaken by the Pennsylvania railroad. This will be by far the largest and heaviest arch bridge of any kind in the world. FRIDAY. JANUARY 15. 1909. EQUAL SUFFRAGE. While still fresh in our memories is the recent anniversary celebration of the Emancipation Proclamation, it might be well to give a little thought to the work done by the American woman for the American Negro. When the great Civil war came on, woman willingly gave up her loved ones to the fight for freedom and took upon herself the burden of the support of the family. She became mother and father in one. After a long, weary day in the harvest field she would sit far into the night making clothing, bandages, and hospital supplies, canning and preparing food, and packing boxes to be sent away to the soldiers. When she had no little ones depending on her she left her home and went to fight as a soldier, whenever she could do so without being detected; or went as a nurse upon the battlefield, carrying away the wounded, amid the shot and shell, and working, after a day's battle, all the next night on her errand of mercy. If you are inclined to think hospital work but a small part of warfare, let me tell you that in one hospital the death-rate was reduced from sixty per cent to a little above one per cent at the coming of Florence Nightingale. It always has been the nature of the mothers of the race; not to destroy life, but to give and protect it. We all know of the matchless work of Clara Barton and Dorothea Dix, the former on the field of battle, the latter in the hospital. Dr. Elizabeth Blackwell, trained under Florence Nightingale, originated the great sanitary commission, and to Josephine S. Griffing belongs the entire credit of founding the Freedmen's Bureau which did so much to help and protect the newly emancipated Negroes. It was a woman, little Anna Dickenson, who first saw that before the Negro's freedom would be of value to him, he must be made a voting citizen. It was her inspired orations that carried in the Republican party to victory, in states where there was thought to be no chance of a victory. She it was who made that grand and successful appeal for the Negro that he might be allowed to bear arms for his country and when a regiment of colored men was formed the first duty they performed was to serenade the young orator who had stood by them so loyally and eloquently all during the war. Read any history of the United States and you will see how widely recognized is the immensity of PETER H. BURKE M. E. Hay anti-slavery influences exerted by Harriet Beecher Stowe's novel, "Uncle Tom's Cabin." Mowry says of it: "Harriet Beecher Stowe wrote that wonderful story, "Uncle Tom's Cabin," which stirred the hearts of the world as to the evils of slavery. When the book was published it created the widest excitement, both North and South. Everybody read it who read at all. The next year it was translated into ten different languages. No other work of fiction in the English language was ever so widely sold." Lawler says: "The intense feeling in the North against slavery was increased by the publication of Mrs. Stowe's 'Uncle Tom's Cabin,' a story dealing with life in the South. The sales of this book reached millions of copies, and more than any other single force its publication stirred up the anti-slavery feeling and increased the ranks of those opposed to the extension of slavery." "The Historians' History of the World" says in part: "Its powerful and vivid portrayal of the horrors and wrongs of slavery stirred the sympathetic hearts of the North to their profoundest depths. Perhaps never has a work of fiction exerted such wide and lasting influence." This is the tone used by all the historians in speaking of the work done for the Negro by Mrs. Stowe's book.

Each and every one of these women, although devoted to the cause of Woman Suffrage, laid aside her claims that nothing might come in the way of the Negro.

Among those who witnessed the opening of the eleventh legislature was J. Lindley Green, one of Seattle's leading attorneys. Mr. Green having been an early and enthusiastic admirer and supporter of the Hon. S. G. Cosgrove for governor hoped to see him inaugurated, which was more or less responsible for his presence at the state capitol. He is a strong advocate of the local option bill and the anti-race track bill and was putting in a good word for each when- 5 ever and wherever he could. He is also much interested in some of the reforms that will come before the legislature concerning law practices in this state. For a number of years he was court commissioner in Alaska and heard some of the most important mining cases that were ever begun in the Rampart district. When the senate elected A. S. Ruth president thereof a man, who has given the state valuable service, was deservingly honored. Mr. Ruth is now servinig his fourth term in the senate. Senator Ruth might have been elected lieutenant governor of the state had he chosen to let his name be used in that connection. In naming Max F. Gose supreme judge to fill the vacancy caused by Milo A. Root failing to qualify Gov. Mead has complied strictly with the wishes of Governor-elect Cosgrove. Judge Gose and Gov. Cosgrove have been close political friends for years and both hail from the same city in Eastern Washington. Mr. Gose is said to be one of the ablest lawyers in the state. ITEMS OF INTEREST. An army order has recently been issued stating that all officers and enlisted men will wear, when in uniform, an identification tag, which will be issued by the quartermaster's department at cost price to officers and without cost to men. President Roosevelt announces that he has sent two supply ships with $300,000 worth of supplies to Italy. One year ago, the American ship Emily Reed was wrecked off the Oregon coast and ten sailors were lost. During the past summer British Columbia was swept with forest fires which wrought havoc and destruction to the amount of about seven million dollars, besides the loss of hundreds of lives. At a recent election in the state of California, the voters of the state made it a law that the pay of all state officers should be raised $1,000 per annum. The foreign office does not regard the resignation of Yuan Shi Kai as likely to prove a disturbing factor in the Chinese situation. NOTICE—J. H. Ryan, editor of The (Tacoma) Forum, and H. R.

A new Chinese consular district which embraces the state of Washington has been recently created for the Northwest, and the officials, consisting of a consul, Goon Dip, of Portland, Oregon, and a secretary, Chin Keay, of Seattle, Washington, have undertaken their new duties with offices in the Epler Block. The report from the weather bufor several years, has just been sold by the Issaquah Coal Company for $40,000. As soon as operations are commenced between fifty and sixty men will be put to work. A recent bill submitted to the state legislature has for its object the elimination of the compulsory feature from the present vaccination law. On account of the extremely cold weather during the past few days, the wireless station at Westport has been seriously affected so that the operator has been unable either to transmit or receive messages.

The Washington State University will not send its champion crew to the Poughkeepsie regatta to race against the big eastern crews, but will arrange a series of contests with other Pacific Coast college eights. At the 22nd annual meeting of the Washington Educational Association, recently held in Spokane, Washington, it was decided that the convention would be held next year in Tacoma, Washington. The latest event scheduled for the A.-Y.-P. fair in 1909 is a race between Johnny Hayes, winner of Marathon race; Dorando, the Italian, who was Hayes' closest challenger in the Olympic contests; Longboat, a fleet Indian; Shrubb, an unbeaten Englishman, and Wada, a Japanese wonder of Nome, Alaska, who is famed in the Pacific Northwest.

A commission consisting of five prosecuting attorneys of this state is now in Olympia with a view of revising the criminal laws of this state and submitting the same to the legislature for its favorable action. Heading this commission is George F. Vandevere, prosecuting attorney of King county. Peter J. Smith, the king of the north district of King county, has under the advice of Prosecuting Attorney Vandevere, been named by the county commissioners as a successor to County Treasurer Matt H. Gormley, whose term --- should have expired last Monday, but who is holding the office because the man elected as his successor failed to qualify. Smith is well and favorably known. It will be a big battle in the courts. William Pitt Trimble, who is slowly but surely popularizing himself throughout the state of Washington, was selected by the presidential electors of the state to take the results of the presidential vote of the state last November to the National Capitol. Of the five electors there were just five candidates for the honor of taking the vote to Washington, but Mr. Trimble won out. Speaking about him popularizing himself reminds the writer that he spent a couple of days mixing with the politicians in Olympia before leaving for Washington and he was always a welcome addition to every group or coterie of politicians that was assembled to discuss the latest political phases of the game. He was in other words always a "good fellow," as politicians say among themselves. Discussing the findings of the bar committee as to the Root-Gordon scandal is no longer in good taste. No new phases of the case have developed since it was first made known in the daily papers. The findings were against Root and so severely did they criticize him that he refused to qualify for the long term, as he had contemplated doing. Right or wrong, the findings of the committee and the effect they had on the general public leaves Judge Root, his wife and six children in a most pitiable condition, and if he still be persecuted by instituting disbarment proceedings against him he and his family will be reduced to a state of pauperism.
