Third Congressional district in doubt. E. B. PALMER. The three big corporate influences which have done more than all other agencies combined to corrupt the politics of Washington are the Hill railroads, the Stone & Webster interests and the big lumber-grabbers. These three agencies of political corruption have a community agent in public life in King county in the person of E. B. Palmer, candidate for the senate in the Forty-seventh district. If the advice of Theodore Roosevelt counts for anything, Palmer should be elected by the people of that district to remain at home. Palmer has a record as a legislator, which is unique in Washington politics. He has served in the legislature four sessions, but has never been re-elected. Whenever the record of his service has been fresh in the minds of his constituents they have without exception defeated him. But, after that record had been forgotten, after his district had filled up with new voters, he has been able, with the assistance of all the undesirable elements of corporation machine politics to get in again. This shrewdness in reaching down into the darkness of underground politics for his support, and in covering the blind trails which he follows render him an especially dangerous man in public office. Palmer was first elected to the legislature in 1899, and his record during that session as a servant of special interests was so maloderous that at the succeeding election he was left at home. He was elected to the senate in 1903, serving two sessions, at the conclusion of which, he was too unfavorably known to procure a renomination. In 1908 the population of his district had more than doubled, filling up with strangers, and he again sneaked into the lower house. In the senatorial embroglio of 1904, involving a number of senatorial aspirants, Palmer, as a hold-over state senator, was able to force his selection as chairman of the Republican state central committee. Having had charge of the campaign he became an influential advisor of Governor Mead and exercised his influence in that capacity to promote his private profit. Possessing a "pull" with the state administration, he procured employment as counsel for the Northern Pacific railroad in a partnership with Carroll B. Graves and James B. Murphy. This was while he was still a member of the senate, called upon in that capacity to vote upon measures for the regulation of railroads. This partnership continued until 1908 when, upon the disclosure of some of Palmer's devious practices, his partners kicked him out of the partnership. As an advisor of the governor, Palmer recommended men for appointment to the state tax commission, afterwards appearing before that commission and before assessors in King and Pierce counties, as tax agent for the Stone & Webster interests and for the Puget Mill company. During this same period of his membership in the senate he engaged in practice before the state land commission. This is an offense which corresponds almost exactly with that for which the late Senator Mitchell of Oregon was tried and convicted of a felony. As chairman of the state central committee, Palmer was able to procure the appointment to the supreme bench of his law partner. Milo A. Root. Before that court, two of the members of which he had helped to elect as chairman of the state committee and two others of which he had been instrumental in appointing, he appeared frequently as attorney, representing his corporate clients. When the Root-Gordon scandal broke out, two investigations were instituted one by the "Preston" committee of the state bar association, the other by a committee of the lower house of the state legislature. Testimony was given before the "Preston" committee by Seaburry Merritt of Spokane, now a candidate for congress from the Third district, that one Tony Richardson of Douglas county, a client of his, who had a case in the supreme court involving a judgment substantially of the value of $25,000 against him, had come to him, Merritt, with a report that Palmer had been to Richardson, saying that he, Palmer, had a pull with the court and that for $2,000 he Palmer, would induce the court to reduce the judgment against Ricahrdson to $19,000. Merritt advised Richardson not to pay the money. Whether Richardson did pay it or not the committee was unable to ascertain. The committee summoned Richardson to Seattle to testify, but Palmer got him in tow and he disappeared. This was testified to before the committee by Palmer himself. When the Richardson decision was handed down it was for the reduced verdict of $19,000. The record of this case may be found in the Washington court reports, "Richardson vs. Richardson," 44th Washington, p. 432. When the Root case was investigated by the legislature Palmer was a member of that body and had enough pull with the speaker to procure appointment as a member of the investigating committee. The charges under investigation were made by H. N. DeWolfe of Tacoma who, when he appeared before the committee, protested against the presence of Palmer. "because Palmer was involved himself in so many of the matters to be investigated." Nevertheless the investigation proceeded and testimony was offered charging the exercise of improper influence upon the court by both of Palmer's clients—the Stone & Webster interests and the Puget Mill company. In what was known as the "Dog Johnson case," involving the title to certain land near Ballard it was testified before the committee that one Dr. Jordon had said that he had negotiated with Palmer for a decision favorable to certain persons alleged to be in a conspiracy, through that decision, to procure possession of another valuable piece of land in the same locality. Palmer's crooked trail was crossed so many times in the investigations by this committee that the other members of the committee finally notified him that unless he retired from its membership they would report to the house requesting his dismissal. Palmer withdrew and the legislature refused to appropriate money to continue the investigation. The last legislature was divided along the most sharply drawn lines witnessed in a Washington legislature in a decade. A majority of decent and honorable members was opposed by a minority of 38 filibusterers, acting under the direction of certain lobbyists for corrupting business interests, and voting as a unit against practically every important piece of decent legislation proposed or enacted. Palmer was a conspicuous floor leader of this filibuster, experienced in the wiles of parliamentary chicanery, ready in debate, unscrupulous in political trickery, which he used day after day and week after week to harrass and annoy those members who were trying in good faith to enact legislation demanded by the people of the state. In his present campaign Palmer makes no reference to his record in the last session, rather trying to divert attention from it by bringing in a fake issue he has cooked up to permit speculators to gobble up the rest of the state tide lands in Seattle under pretense of devoting the money received from them to harbor improvements. The injection of this fake issue will deceive no voter who is familiar with Palmer's record. For Palmer's record is so rotten that it smells to heaven; so rotten that it should serve as a warning to every voter in his district that Palmer cannot be depended upon to champion any important piece VOLUME XVII. NUMBER 15 of legislation not demanded by some special interest which finds it profitable to corrupt politicians and elect its tools to office. Theodore Roosevelt has said that the way to eliminate political corruption is to drive the representatives of the big corrupt corporations out of public life. If Roosevelt's advice is worth anything, it should be applied to E. P. Palmer. MAKING MONEY OUT OF REGRADES. That hidden hand in the financial affairs of the city of Seattle, by the means of which somebody, somewhere is realizing a fortune, may be gotten a glimpse of by looking over the Lake Union boulevard improvement district, which was recently let for a million and a half dollars. Holt & Jeffrey got the contract, which is nothing out of the ordinary, as they get the most of the contracts let by the city, and mayhap the figure they took the contract for is less than any one else could do it, but there is always a wheel in a wheel, and here is where the hidden hand gets in its fine Italian work. If some other contractor had have underbid Holt & Jeffrey he would have had to bring the dirt to make the fill of that boulevard district some five or ten miles and would have had to buy it at an enormous price, and in so doing he could not have realized very much out of the contract, if he did not actually go broke. But the successful bidders seem to have their friends at court and before they go to work making the fill around the lake another improvement district will have been created in the regrading of the cross streets running down to the boulevard, and to do that work Holt & Jeffery will be able to underbid any other contractor twenty-five per cent, for they can use the dirt in their fill, while any other contractor will have to take the dirt to Salmon bay. Now on the two contracts the firm of Holt & Jeffrey will be able to realize not less than $800,000, and yet if they should be called on the carpet to explain they would be able to show that their transactions with the city were on the square and in the open. How could the city protect itself against such extortion? you ask. Why the city council should have made the Lake Union boulevard district and the cross streets to the boulevard in one improvement district and then the cut of the cross streets would more than have filled the boulevard, and the whole work could have been done for less than half what it will necessarily cost at the way it is going to be done, and the saving that could have been made by the city by handling it in that way will be made by Holt & Jeffrey. Perhaps no one about the city hall is getting anything out of such moves, but it looks very much like they are. Was that slap administered to Albert J. Goddard by Councilman Murphy the beginning of the end? is still the question. Bill Hanna is no more to be compared with J. W. McConnaughey to fill the office of county treasurer than a child to man. Do not overlook the fact that you must vote for a first and second choice for representative in Congress, if you wish to be counted. A vote for Jackson is a vote against Ed. Palmer, who has grown rich fighting for corporations. A vote for Jackson is a vote against corruption. Among the colored voters in the Thirty-seventh senatorial district Ed. Palmer should not get a vote and he hardly will, if they live up to their agreement. LATE CONSERVATION CONVENTION. Few public gatherings of a national nature has attracted the attention as has the Conservation Congress, which met in St. Paul the first of the week, and was addressed by President Taft and subsequently by Col. Theodore Roosevelt. If there was any doubt of there being an estrangement between Taft and Roosevelt prior to that meeting there is no longer any, for the two men took almost antagonistic views on the conservation question, which was the prime cause of the original difference of opinion between the two party leaders. The president's speech was of a conservative nature but showed decided leanings to the Ballinger idea of conservation, while the speech of the Colonel was a clean-cut endorsement of Pinchotism and diametrically opposed to the ideas advanced by the Western governors, and so much so, that those dig- CURRENT COMMENT 2 itaries decided that though they might be in the right church, yet they were most decidedly in the wrong pew. Every tie that bound Taft and Roosevelt has been broken and now it will be war to the knife for party supremacy, and even at this early stage of the game, it looks as if Roosevelt will lead the Conservation forces against his former lieutenant in the next presidential contest, and if he does, he will sweep him and his forces from the face of the earth. JIM HILL AND CONSERVATION. After all, one of the most interesting talks before the Conservation Congress was that of James J. Hill the great railroad magnate, not because he is the owner of the Great Northern railroad, but because he is a man of vast experience, and likewise of many resources. His speech brought out some things that had not been touched by others, and demonstrated that for some unexplainable reason the Interest men are always together and to the seeming detriment of the common people. Mr. Hill bitterly opposed the Federal government conserving the natural, mineral and mineral resources of the country, and declared that such were the property rights of the respective states and in doing so he came dangerously near endorsing the old state rights doctrines that caused the Great Civil war. If his allegations be true that it costs the government 50 per cent more to do public improvements than it does private individuals and concerns, then the crying need of the United States should be more for a Conversion Congress than a Conservation Congress, that the citizens may be converted to honesty, personal integrity and greatest of all, patriotism. BALLINGER ALMOST BOUNCED. It looks a good deal like the Insurgent and Democratic members of the Ballinger-Pinchot investigation committee took snap judgment of the absent Republican members and voted Secretary Ballinger down and out, but whether the above be true or not the mere fact that as many of the members of the committee as voted on the snap shop resolution as did, is sufficient proof that Secretary Ballinger is dangerously near the ban of guilty as charged. It is hardly probable that even Democrats would deliberately vote to blight and ruin the character of a fellow citizen for mere partisan purposes, hence there must be something wrong. What the final report of the committee will be is verily not known, but enough evidence has been brought out to show that Secretary Ballinger has been under the influence of some one, whose motives were not very patriotic, and that that some one seems to be none other than the one that was able to pick up an obscure man in the Far Northwest and have him named as secretary of the interior in President Taft's cabinet. The question is. Who is the man? COL. EVANS VS. MAYOR GILL. "Negro soldiers have no rights that the policemen of Seattle are bound to respect," are in effect, the decision of Mayor Hiram Charles Gill, who refused to have a policeman discharged from the force who abused a colored soldier and a couple of women who were with him and that, too, on the military reservation. Col. Evans of the fort demanded the policeman's removal and in refusing to do so the mayor replied: "I would have to have more evidence than that of a drunken Negro soldier and his lady (?) friends to discharge the officer." And thus the mayor of Seattle adds insult to injury and using the words of the immortal writer, "The villian still pursues me." Without excuse or justification the mayor has kept thirty policemen on duty about the fort to guard the citizens against the vicious Negro soldiers, when in fact the policemen are a hundred times more vicious than has been proven the Negro soldiers have ever been. Dozens of policemen have been discharged from the force within the past year for abusing young white women and that, too, while on duty, and it is charged that the officer in question was drunk at the time. Oh, what a tangle webb we weave When first we practice to deceive A MESSAGE FROM MARS. "Horton"—Another chapter in aerial achievement is recorded in the sending of a wireless message from an aeroplane—"McCurdy." This was the message sent from an aviator in flight, a mile away and 500 feet up, to a receiving station on earth, and it may be quite as significant in its way as the famous one. "What hath God wrought?" However, the fall to a speedy death with an aeroplant is beginning to be what we commonly call "an every-day occurrence;" and at first glance may appear to be a needless loss of life and suffering. True the rapid progress of the world's growth has been achieved at a high price. For measures, inventions, improvements, and ```markdown ``` discoveries, men have given up their lives and the end is not yet. We observe, and hence we learn from experience. It must be admitted some are bitter but none the less effective, and the number who have died with the number which will yet be sacrificed, will be small indeed, when compared with the immense throngs which will be benefited when the aeroplane shall have reached the highest stage of its usefulness. INSURGENCY GROWING STRONGER. If you argue that Insurgency in Republican ranks is not in the air and even sweeping all before it, then you are shutting your eyes to the cold blooded facts. Up to date every state that has voted has been carried by the Insurgent forces and the latest to fall into their hands are Wisconsin and Michigan. In the former, Robert La Follette defeated his opponent by an overwhelming majority, in the latter, Senator Burrows was defeated by Charles E. Townsend, the Insurgent candidate by a most decided majority. Even over in Vermont and New Hampshire, Insurgency demoralized the Republican ranks and either defeated the regulars out right, or drove them to cover. Nothing is more responsible for this than Theodore Roosevelt's Western tour and his series of splendid speeches. Owing to the attitude Roosevelt has assumed on the conservation question it is predicted that the Insurgents will absolutely control the next Congress and that even the state of Washington will contribute one senator and three representatives to that majority. At this writing everything indicates that Miles Poindexter will get more votes in the senatorial contest than all of the other candidates combined. It also looks as if T. P. Revelle will beat Humphrey, that McCredie will be defeated and an Insurgent will lead in the Third district. TUSKEEGEE GETS A MILLION. To him that hath, give him more, seems to be the rule in this "land of the free and home of the brave," and working along that line, a Mrs. Flora L. Dotger of South Orange, N. J., bequeathed at her death a few days ago a round million dollars to Booker T. Washington's Tuskegee institute. However, in this instance, Mr. Dotger has used more discretion than others with millions for distribution. Tuskegee has and is doing the greatest educational work of any institution in the whole country, and it has at its head one of the greatest men the world has seen for years, but unlike Col. Roosevelt, who has the credit of being the most popular man in the world, Dr. Booker T. Washington's greatness all runs to the good of humanity, while Roosevelt's runs to keeping Teddy in the limelight. The more money and help Booker T. Washington gets from those able to give, the more he uplifts fallen humanity, and power to him is but a means to doing more good for mankind in general, while Roosevelt seeks power for selfish aggrandizement, and it may be said of him that he is dangerously ambitious, so far as the general good of the United States is concerned. STRIKERS FIGHT MOVING PICTURES. Complaints are pouring in from the labor unions regarding moving pictures, which they claim are libellous inasmuch as the scenes are posed by hired actors who exaggerate action and motion. They think it fair that days of weary waiting, where the pot has ceased to boil, should be represented also. Inhumane outbreaks and wilful desecration of property and loss of life attend strikes, and if the union does not wish them depicted to the world, so that all men may see them, these evils should be eliminated. If strikes are an unfair proposition let them be stopped; if they are the right thing there should be no attending conditions arising which would place the union in a poor light were they used in a scene of a moving picture. There is but one right way. The pictures portray the most intense scenes and it follows, whichever side is at fault, will become unpopular because public sentiment will censure it. The moving picture show is both amusing and instructive, and like the stage, is destined to become no small incentive in the world's uplift. SAM HILL'S GOOD ROADS. How much there is in the proposition made by Samuel Hill to build a highway from Blaine to Vancouver, from Vancouver to Spokane by the way of Walla Walla and thence by the way of Davenport and Wenatchee to Seattle is more than can be said at this time or by any one that has not given the proposition a thorough consideration, but it sounds feasible, and if Mr. Hill is willing to assume the responsibility and put up a sufficient bond to guarantee the state against financial loss there is no reason why he should not be given the right to begin the undertaking. Good roads is a hobby with Mr. Hill and he has already spent thousands of dollars of his own money in the effort to give the state of Washington good roads and in the proposition he has just made to the state, it FRIDAY September 9. 1910 appears that he can not realize a cent of money from it, but if he should realize a handsome profit therefrom he would richly merit it. A good driving road as he has mapped out across the state in three directions would be one of the greatest boons that could come to the state in a century. This paper is not at this time endorsing the plan, but it looks good and merits the closest investigation of those who have the development of the state at heart. AMERICA'S AUTOMOBILE LUXURY. There are many speculative suggestions that the American people are too extravagant in their use of automobiles. It is predicted that if trouble appears in the financial and industrial world the motor craze will have to bear the blame. There are many persons who can hardly afford them, but they come under the head of luxuries and each man has the right to indulge in luxuries, if it so pleases him and he can produce the where-with. Count what our women spend for jewels and our men for drink and tobacco each year, and it will be found that the automobile craze is not so bad after all. Americans have always been adicted to these other things, which do not tend to proling life, and it must be admitted, this new luxury is an engine of business as well as pleasure, giving employment to many, while joy, health and recreation follow in its wake. In many cases its use is economical, as it serves a necessary and beneficent purpose. Senator Elhu Root has returned from The Hague, where he represented the United States government at the congress of nations, to which the disputes between the United States government and the English government over boundary troubles between this country and Canada, were submitted. Assisting Senator Root in unraveling the legal controversy was former Senator George Turner of Spokane. It is said that our legal representatives are well satisfied with the presentment of the case and believe the United States will be awarded all she has demandd of the English government. From the speeches made by President Taft and Col. Roosevelt at the conservation convention at St. Paul, it is plain to be seen that the two former fast friends will soon become bitter political enemies and seek to tear each other to pieces with even more intensity than they did to build each other up. Roosevelt made Taft, but once made Taft thought it impossible for Roosevelt to unmake him, but Teddy does not entertain a like feeling, hence the bitter controversy. Gilbert M. Hitchcock, the name of the new Democratic Moses from Nebraska, who for a number of years was a disciple of the immortal William Jennings Bryan, following blindly in his political wake, but who finally rebelled from his prohibition teachings and went before the people and downed his old political past master. Mr. Hitchcock has been nominated for United States senator by the Democrats of Nebraska over the protests of Mr. Bryan, and unless the state goes Republican, which is more than probable, owing to the big factional fight among the Democrats, he will be elected to the senate. Such are the fortunes of war. It is again reported that King Menelik is dangerous ly ill and his death may occur at most any minute. The above may be absolutely true, but similar yarns have been published before, and despite their publication the king has lived on. He is one of the notable rulers of the world and comes nearer being absolute ruler of those he governs than any other ruler now living. Roosevelt's "malicious journalism" must be Editor Roosevelt publishing Dictator Roosevelt's speeches. So far as the general public is concerned, no form of journalism could be more mendacious. Because President Taft and Col. Roosevelt differ as to Republican policies, it is argued that there is a "crisis in the Republican party." The Republican party will live on when both of them have been dead and forgotten. Instead of there being a crisis in the Republican party, it looks more like there is a disturber and malcontent in the Republican party. Working the Indian seems to be a rather lucrative employment down in Oklahoma. Insurgery refuses to learn the A B C of the stand-pat Republicans, especially since they stand for Aldrich Ballinger, and Cannon. That antique pitcher, for which J. Pierpont Morgan recently paid $25,000, will probably be sold for 25 cents a year after Morgan is dead. this, I expect to be successful in my candidacy for the state senate. If I have failed, then I hardly can hope to win. But I feel that I have not failed, and therefore expect to win." From the day that he took his seat in the lower house up to the adjournment of the special session of the Legislature, called by Governor Myron E. Hay last year, Frank H. Renick's name has been identified with the most important legislation enacted by the state of Washington, as the records of The House Journal for the several sessions prove. Mr. Renick's work in the House is indicated by his committee assignments. In the session of 1905, his first, he was chairman of the committee on tide lands and, in addition was a member of the committees on corporations other than municipal; engrossed bills, insurance and State university. The influence of Mr. Renick in the session of 1905 was recognized by the speaker of the House in 1907, the year when the appropriations for the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific exposition had to be put through, by his appointment on the very important committee to formulate rules for the House and joint rules for the House and Senate, and his promotion to the committee on rules and order. In that session he was chairman of the committee on revenue and taxation, and the only member from King county on the committee on game and game fish. He also served on the committees on appropriations—this is the most important and most sought-for assignment in the gift of the speaker. He was also a member of the harbor and waterways committee to which the bills providing for the Duwamish River improvement and the Lake Washington Canal improvement (known as Senate Bill 81) was referred and favorably reported. The appropriations committee, under his leadership in the House handled the bill creating a state shoreland improvement fund and appropriated $250,000 to be paid out of the tide land fund from the sale of the tide lands on Lake Union, to be used in the construction of the Lake Washington Canal. Mr. Renick personally handled the appropriation bill on the floor of the House. Mr. Renick at all times has been in favor of an economical administration of city, county and state affairs. Another important piece of legislation for which he worked in the 1909 session was the bill permitting a refund and rebate of costs paid for local improvements above the actual cost of the improvement Mr. Renick's candidacy is receiving the support of representative citizens of the district. He has resided in the district over twenty years and has a larger acquaintance than probably any other individual making his home there. Mr. Renick is engaged in the real estate and insurance business and is counted among Seattle's most representative citizens. He resides at 1424 Belmont avenue. facilitate the legal business of JUDGE BOYD J.

Renick a member of the lower house of the Legislature continuously since 1905, states that he does so wholly upon his record as representative of the Forty-fifth Legislative District, which corresponds with the Thirty-fifth Senatorial District and comprises all of the Fifth ward and the First, Second, Ninth and Tenth precincts of the Seventh ward. Mr. Renick says: "For six years I have served my district as representative. During that time I have endeavored to look after the interests of my district and the state so as to merit the good will of my constituents. If I have succeeded in this, I expect to be successful in it. If I have failed, then I hardly can have not failed, and therefore expect.

It seems that it has the seven judges of the county to continues as it has been for the past year the county will have to ask for at least two more superior court judges in order to keep the dockets clean.

The drug is obtained for the most part by cunning and misrepresentation. The post card craze has seen its glory. Three years ago over 500,000,000 picture post cards were forwarded by German export houses to the United States. Today this number has fallen to a little under 250,000,000. Prof. J. J. See, U. S. N., in charge of the naval astronomical observatory at Mare Island after devoting ten years of his life to investigating things sidereal has evolved a new and imoroved theory of the universe. He claims to have discovered that the congregation of the nebulae away from the Milky Way with maximum accumulation near the poles of the Galaxy is the result of the action of repulsive forces under which fine, cosmical dust, expelled from the stars, is driven as far away from the Milky Way as possible. Professor See stated his conviction that the planets revolving about the fixed stars are inhabited by some kind of intelligent beings. Miss Morpungo of London has been appointed inspector of the Etruscan Museum and director of the researches in ancient Etruria for that city. Sixty professors, all men, competed for the position. Next year Italy will have an aerial fleet for which Parliament has voted an appropriation of $3,- 000,000. Twenty-four dirigible balloons are to be constructed. Two airships will be attached to each army corps and a special corps of aeronauts will be formed. That this is an age of specialization, in other words, that it pays to get next to something and stick to it for all it is worth, has been demonstrated by Richard Parr, who has been awarded $100.000 by the United States government for his services in uncovering the sugar trust frauds. The only room at the top is for wide-awake and thorough workers. English people are the greatest tea drinkers of Western Europe, yet the custom is general as the consumption of the beverage proves. Some claim, however, that the art of making it has been lost, and if ever regained will greatly reduce the liquor habit. French experts claim to have recently spotted the real Halley's comet. It makes but little difference whether its the real or the unreal, we on this side have had all of Halley's comet we want, and they will have to spring somebody else's comet before we will be willing to again lose our sleep and strain the back of our necks gazing upward.

EDWARD VAN TOBEL DWYBEL TOBEL Office and office address, rooms 303-8 Mutual Life Bldg., Seattle, King County, Wash. Sept 2, Oct. 15, 1910. It is the consensus of opinion that Theodore Roosevelt will either be the next presidential nominee of the Republican party or there will be two Republican tickets with Roosevelt on one and Taft on the other and as a result of such a division Mayor Gaynor of New York will be the next president of the United States. In Bridgeport, Connecticut, not many days ago the four sons of a Mr. Miller of that section held a reunion and at that reunion the aggregate wealth of the four sons amounted to $25,000,000. The father of those four boys at their majority gave to each of them $700 and sent them out in the world to battle for themselves. They each went to the farm and each of them have been eminently successful at something else besides muckraking politics. Young man return to the soil. It seldom ever happens that Republicans can consistently point with pride to the official act of a Democrat, and while the Republicans of Indiana did not exactly point with pride to the career of Thomas R. Marshal, governor of Indiana for the past eighteen monts, yet they had no condemnation of him and that was equal to pointing with pride to him. Governor Marshal is said to have made an ideal governor in the interest of the common people and the least the Republicans said about him the better their chances of success might be. Secretary Richard A. Ballinger says, "the West wants progressive conservation, not a wholesale withdrawal of lands that will stunt her growth." And the West, it might likewise be added, want a withdrawal of the Interests of the Guggenheim stripe, who seem to have the idea that, the West was conserved for them, which Interests to an extent, have been represented by Attorney Ballinger, which made it possible for him to step from the mayor's chair of Seattle to the office os Secretary of the Interior of the United States. It has probably cost Judge Burke all told not less than $150,000 to simplyfy the senatorial situation, but for a man with millions of railroad slush at his command that's a mere bagatele. Money is the root of all evil. 器 IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE State of Washington, for King County. Relinda, Higdon, Plaintiff, vs. Ira Higdon. Defendant. No. —.

Mrs. Potter Palmer has recently returned from Europe, and despite the fact that she has always blindly followed all of the fool fashions that France has sent to America, yet she condemns the hobble skirt and declares that it will prove a complete failure. But the hobble skirt is no worse than many of the ultra fashions that Mrs. Palmer has advoaated and sent the giddy girls of this country to ruin trying to keep up with them. This country would be a million times better off if such women as Mrs. Potter Palmer were banished. It is being hinted all over the city that Clancy will settle the senatorial question in the Thirty-fourth district, by voting enough dead ones to give Piper such a majority in the First ward that Ramsey will find it utterly impossible to overcome it with his respectable vote on the hill. The judges and clerks were all named by Piper and his friends and Ramsey will have no show to even demand fair play. The editor of The Seattle Republican warned Mr. Ramsey against this in the very outset, and told him his chances of election, in view of the fact that as many dead men as it was considered Piper would need to win, would be voted in the First ward, and now it is said that such will be done and that Ramsey will not have a look in. But in spite of the frame-up, Ramsey will make great run, and if nominated, one of the cleanest men ever nominated in that district will be endorsed. You will have two days in which to register for the primary election and you should take advantage of the same. the owner and holder of the said Certificate of Purchase. And you, the said Charles McDonald, are hereby further notified that at the expiration of Sixty days after the date of the first publication of this notice, exclusive of the day of the publication, with sixty days after September 9, 1910, the said L.
