Saturday, Nov. 2, 1912. (PAID ADVERTISEMENT) Enemies I Have Made and How I Made Them R. W. JAMIKSOX Progressive Candidate for Sheriff. FOUR IiA\VB I HKIiI'KI) TO PASS At the time I became a candidate for the Legislature, I sent out circulars stating that 1 v.antod to go to the Legisla ture to help pass an eight-hour law for women; a full crew law for the railroad men; an employers' liability bill for the factories, mills and logging camps, and an initiative, referen dum and recall bill. I asked each voter in the district to vote for me or against me according to whether he favored or op posed these measures. I was elected by one of the largest majorities ever given a candidate in that district, receiving about 2200 votes out of about 3000 votes cast. This district is made up largely of people who own their own homes and are conservative and level-headed in all their actions, political and otherwise. We got these four bills through and signed by the governor. I mention this fact to show that my actions in the Legislature had been ratified in advance by the people I represented. Each of these bills had its powerful enemies. EIGHT HOIB J,AW FOR WOMKN The men who were making money by working young girls twelve or fourteen hours a day deluged the membera of the Legislature with letter predicting the terrible results that would follow if young girls were only worked eight hours a day instead of twelve or fourteen hours. They used every pos sible effort and brought to bear every possible pressure to induce me to drop the fight for the bill, but without avail. FULIi CREW IjAW The railroad companies at a time when trains consisted of from fifteen to twenty-five cars had induced the trainmen to consent to run trains with one less brakeman than a full crew, and had promised the trainmen that as soon as busi ness increased so that trains were again as long as they had been before, that other brakenien would be restored but had refused year after year to make good their promise, although the trains had Increased in some cases to as many as one hundred cars. A full crew was absolutely necessary to safely handle these immense trains and It finally became* necessary for the railroad men in order to get the full number of men to a crew to take the matter up with the Legislature and we compelled the railroads by law to do what they had promised to do voluntarily. EMPLOYERS' LIABILITY LAW A lot of people had been waxing fat on the misery of the dead and dying workingmcn of the State through liability In surance companies. The employers were paying out millions of dollars for the protection of their men, but when an em ploye was injured or killed all he or his heirs received «U an opportunity to carry on a law suit. This robbery of the dead and dying became such a scandal that it became neces sary for the people of the State to take the matter in charge themselves, and resulted in the passage of the present employ ers' liability bill, which has proved such a boon to both em ployer and employe. Every possible tactic was resorted to to defeat this bill and to continue in existence the former system of robbery of the weak and helpless, the dead and the dying, and every man who took an active part in passing that bill aroused the implacable enmity of those persons who were profiting by this robbery of the injured workmen and their families. INITIATIVE RKFBRKNDUM AND nECAIX A long series of betrayals of their trusts by public officials throughout the country had resulted in a determined effort by the people of the whole country to find some means by which unfaithful public servants could be called to account without waiting for their terms of office to expire. We passed a bill In the last Legislature which is the first step in this State to make it possible to summarily remove from his of fice any official who is found to bo corrupt, and this law was opposed In every possible way by the powerful 1 interests that profit through the corruption of weak or unprincipled public servants. These four bills interfered with the plans of the men who for years had preyed upon the weak, the helpless, the unfor tunate, the corrupt, the dying and the *lead in this State, and destroyed their sources of profit, plundw and privilege. Here I made my biggest bunch of enemies OONGLCUOX The Sheriff's Office in my opinion affords the greatest opportunity for social service of any department of the county government. There is not only an opportunity to reduce the cost of that office to the taxpayers without in any way re ducing its efficiency, but on the contrary its usefulness can be greatly increased. The more prisoners a sheriff ran get to keep the greater is the profit. The system of paying sheriffs so much per day for keeping prisoners works out just as It would In any other business —the sheriff gets as many as he can and keeps them as long as he can, all at the cost of the taxpayers. Instead of getting as many people in the jail as possible and keeping them there as long a" possible, the effort should be in the op posite direction. The smallest possible number should be placed in jail and they should be kept there the shortest pos sible time. The biggest asset that Pierce County has Is In Its boys and girls and they should be protected and conserved above all other assets. What does it profit a man, no matter how successful he may be, if he has a son in the Penitentiary or a daughter in a worse place! Our jails and prisons are full of men and women who comld have been developed into good citizens if they had only been properly handled when they first started wrong. The head of the most successful reformatory in this country has said that there is no such thing as a bad boy or girl—that they are merely children whose energies have been misdirected. I consider all the other work of the Sheriff as of minor Importance as compared with the care of youthful delinquents. The purpose in printing this statement is to inform the readers of what Hob Hodpe has well called the "Kept Press," of what has been going on politically, economically, morally and socially in this county and state, as they will never learn from reading their dally papers, and to let the people of Pierce County know the animus and the source of the lies which are being circulated about the writer by these enemies of the common good, who realize that they are all going to be put out of business by the progressive movement.

"11 Trovatore" will be the pro duction presented Sunday even ing. On Monday evening the company will produce "The Chimes or Normandy." "Officers 0«0" Laugh overleaps laughs, sur prise follows surprise, and thrill chases thrill in the unfolding of the plot and story of "Officer fififi," the sensational farce which Cohan & Harris will present here at the Tacoma theater Friday night. "Officer 6K6" tells a story of love in an atmosphere of mystery, the fun of which is supplied by an over zealous policeman who loans his uniform to a millionaire and thereby gets himself into trouble at headquarters. THK KOl'Xn-l'P At the Tacoma Boon, will be presented "The Round-Up," Klaw & Erlanger's big Western drama, with Maclyn Arbuckle, which has an abundance of thrills and heart interest, both of which are essential to the success of such a play. •loNepli Slieelian, with the Sliw limi KngliNh Opera Co., at the Ta coiiui Sunday and Monday.

Topping the double-feature bill will be the Hamada troupe, which as its name suggests, con sists of Japanese performers. This act is heralded as one of the finest yet seen on the circuit. Harry Whitney's "Baby Dolls" will furnish another attractive novelty on the bill. This is not a regulation "girl act," but a nov elty in the form of a miniature quartet presented in an original manner. Harrison Green and Kathryn Parker, known to vaudeville as "the blue ribbon pair in polite comedy," will furnish another en joyable feature of the bill. Miss Parker Is said to be an unusually pleasing singer of popular melo dies. Professor Richard Karsey and company will present, for the first time in the city, the myra phone. This Is a unique musical instrument with 2,000 strings, and its music is said to be like that of a string orchestra. It is the only instrument of Its kind in the world and is the invention of Prof. Karsey. Rutherford and Monroe appear in a sketch entitled "An Extra Added Attraction," which is said to be full of music and good comedy. John Simmer is billed as the "somewhat different" juggler. Dainty Bessie Leonard is a whole troupe in herself. She has been scoring a big personal hit. Tim Demons of the Swamp are mosquitos. As they stln:-r they put deadly malaria germp in the blood. Then follow the icj chills and the fires of fever. The appetite flies and the strength fails; also malaria often pave? the way for deadly typhoid.

R. and Popular Government This is the last of six articles by GUaoB Gardner, staff corre spondent of this newspaper, out lining the Hull Mouse program. Gardner .ins been Intimately in touch with lloosovelt for many years and is especially qualified to present his side of the campaign problems. HE overthrow of cla s 6 govern ment is the real purpose of the third party movement. Roosevelt hap pens to be Its loader, but the movement i b bigger than any man, and there would have been a protest of this sort if Roose velt had never come back from Africa, It happens that Ro&evelt's func tions to the popular feeling. His seven years in the White House were a struggle really against the old parly organizations. Roose velt was not himself entirely con scious of this. He was accustomed to think in terms of men—of good men and of bad men. In those days it is doubtful whether Roose velt clearly saw the bi-partisan conspiracy of liig Business against the people. Since those days he has had a change to see the workings of the system from new angles. The Rooiev«lt of today is not the Roosevelt of eleven or even of Mveo years ago. He has progress ed with the progressive sentiment of the country and has broadened, a.s many individuals in the move ment have. Things which to the former Iloosevelt were heresy are now his gospel. The initiative and referendum which he flouted when they were put forward by the Bryan democrats he now sees are necessary. He realizes that the people must have the tools of government In thoir hands, and instead of swearing by his party as In the olden days he states in his speech to the progressive con vention that 'democrats and re publicans alike the professional politicians of the old system rep resent government of the needy many, by professional politicians, in the interests of the rich few." Now Colonel Roosevelt an nounces his belief In presidential primaries, election of senators by direct popular vote, equal suf frage, the short ballot, corrupt practices acts, publicity of cam paign contributions during the Campaign, the recall of public of ficials, the recall of judicial de cisions which violate fundamental rights, and the initiative and ref erendum. This is the full measure of democracy so far as the present constitutional limitations permit. Even the socialists cannot go far ther without demanding funda mental changes in the structure of government, necessitating a practically new constitution. They, for example, demand the abolition of the senate and of the veto power of the president, the direct election of president and vice president, the abolition of the supreme court's power to pass on the constitutionality of laws, an>l national Initiative and re fere mi urn. Colonel Roosevelt sincerely be lieves that the progressive move ment and its success is the only thing which stands in the way of revolution, or socialism.

TO THE KI/EfTOIIS AND TAXPAYERS OF PIKRCE CO.: Owing to the large volume of business In this office In the past 60 days I have been unable to give any considerable time to further my candidacy for the office of Prosecuting At torney, and for that reason I desire that you know, if you nre not already informed, that I have, as deputy proßecutor, In the past throe and a half years conducted approximately 600 of the people's cases and have prevailed in 95 per cent of them. I do not believe that a prosecutor's ability should be measured alone by the number of cases won, but rather by the broader gauge of square dealing and Justice, and this I always hnve contended for. 1 have given every hour of my time and every ounce of my energy to my County and State. I assisted in the estab lishment of the Juvenile Court, and am now one of its unpaid officers. .1 believe by correcting the Incorrigible boy or girl, that the criminal courts will have less work, the penal inetitu tlons fewer inmates, and to society will be saved a great pro ductive unit. As chairman of the legislative committee of the State Prosecutors' Association I intend by legislative enact ment to have created a court of domestic relations which will solidify, rather than forever sever, the marital tie, so that the family, the basic unit of society, will be saved. My experience has further taught me that we must devise a law for the paid employment on highways of the drunkard, the family deserter a.nd the petty offender, so that the innocent wife and children may have at least a semblance of support while the erring one is serving time. To deal with the many delicate feminine questions aris ing in this office I purpose to appoint an efficient woman lawyer us a deputy. If you believe In a vigorous, vigilant and intelligent prosecution without fear or favor against the rich or poor, high or low alike, may I ask you for your vote regard less of your party affiliations? Yours truly, A. O. BURMEISTER, Republican Nominee for Prosecuting Atty. presslon and the exact order are co similar. "Adam and Eve," of course means two eggs. "On a raft," thats on toast, and "close their eyes" means pouring water over them until the yolk becomes cov ered. With fried eggs It means turned over. "Shipwrecked" eggs are scram bled. This term Is also under the ban. A "string of flats" is a plate of hot cakes. "Short and sweet," denottx a small steak, blood rare. "Sports' V'llght" Is another name for ham and eggs. A "sheenee funeral" is an order of pork chops. larger measure for the benefit of the masses. He believes, how ever, that they will not be bo used until the Instruments of government are secured "by the people and the government is made responsive to popular de mands. HOW TO VOTE FOR JUDGES Do you know just how to vote for judges? A lot of people do not, and there is much discussion. Some voters are insisting that Card and Chapman, who are on the ticket by themselves, may be defeated. This is practically erroneous. If they get one vote each they will be elected, unless some oth<-r names are written in or put in their column with stickers. They are in a column by themselves where it says "vote for two." They are not running against Easterday, Arntson, Clif ford and Me.Murray, who are in another column. To vote the county judiciary ticket, vote for Card and Chap man both in their column, then go over and vote for two more in the column where the four candi dates are found. Can; must t>e exercised not to vote for more than two in this latter column or the ballot will be thrown out. In the supreme court ballot there are two candidates printed, Kills and Mounts. But the voter, may vote for three here, as there is a vacancy. Judge Main, Judge Black and Brooke Wright are the candidates, but the voter will have to write the name on the ballot in the blank space or put it on with a sticker. 7 Youthful, Beautiful I I Skin Easy to Have ( Ton may be as healthy as a bird In the air and still have a poor complexion.
