OFFICIAL PAPER OF WHATCOM CO.
A PROGRAM FOR THE LEGISLATURE
Hero are a few things we'd like to see the
State Legislature do next month-
Pass a ••sucker-proof" Blue Sky Law. and
pass it again over the governor's veto.
Swat tho Centralia Normal's quarter million
dollar appropriation.
Strike the half-million for the state's military
forces off the budget.
Pass a state income tax. reach the fifteen
hundred millions of untaxed value in the State
of Washington, and lift the tax burden on the
farmer and home-owner.
You can say what you like about the old
horse—you didn't have to tinker with his carbu
rettor every frosty morning.
Since hearing that an insect has been discov
ered at Everett devouring lilacs, one Lynden man
never appears in public without a hair-net over
his goatee.
There is quite a little agitation now for el
iminating the electoral college. The loyal alumni
should rally to its defense.
CONSIDER THE LITTLE FELLOW
A state '.aw that permits a big cannery to
lift tons of salmon from its traps daily, and pro
hibits a Lynden farmer from taking a single fish
for his own use, may be equitable, fair and just.
But it looks like indecent discrimination to us.
Here is something that the legislature might
well consider.
Fatty Arbuckle seems to be turning around
and walking right out again.
Nobody has tried to flash any of that $200.-

A farmer who gave a Chicago policeman
$1,400 to buy a turkey with, was branded crazy.
A good drumstick costs more than that.
AT THE PUBLIC EXPENSE
Bellingliam shouldn't lack visitors in 1923.
when the news spreads that the city council is
willing to set 'em up.
Eight thousand millions were spent in the
United States this year for Christmas gifts—
hardly a home but what received something in
the shape of fancy suspenders or ivory hair re
ceivers.
A fond farewell. 0 Christmas turkey. Day
by day in every way. you're getting smaller and
smaller.
