Clinton W. Howard should be fired from the federal
bench by the senate of the United States at the earliest
opportunity.
He should be fired out of respect to itself—the senate
.which could not tolerate Lorimcr.
Clinton W. Howard's appointment to the bench was
a political outrage. His nomination, the very consideration
of his name as a possibility for a judicial position, was.
and is. a gratattoiy insult to the people of this state.
THE FACT THAT CLINTON W. HOWARD. BY
VIRTUE OF A RECESS APPOINTMENT BY THE
PRESIDENT. HAS BEEN WEARING THE JUDICIAL
ROBES FOR SEVERAL WEEKS. DOES NOT MAKE
HIM TODAY ONE IOTA MORE SACRED THAN
WHEN HE WAS A COMMON. ORDINARY. PAID LOB
BYIST OF THE 810. FAT CORPORATIONS OF THE
STATE.
It's the same Clinton W. Howard who has possibly put
as many jokers and technical delusions into the laws of this
state, in favor of the corporation* and against the people,
as any other corporation attorney.
And this is the man who is picked by Taft to sit for
life as arbiter between the rich and the poor, between the
corporations and the people.
It's the same Clinton W. Howard who showed no mercy
or hesitancy in his opposition to every progressive measure
advanced in the past 20 years in this state to aid the work
ingmen and workingwomen, who buttonholed legislators at
Olympia and lined thetn up for the bills favored by the cor
porations and against those upon which they frowned.
Clinton W. Howard has not changed his attitude of a
lifetime in his few weeks on the bench. He would be a
remarkable man if he did.
His appointment was purely a political one. It was
on a |>ar with the appointment of Beverly Coiner as U. S.
district attorney, the reward for the political theft and
treachery by which Taft received the stolen delegates of this
state at the Chicago convention.
It took years and it required a battle which the people
ol this city ami state will not soon forget to get rid of C.
H. Hanford.
The people ot Washington now do not want another
Hanford on the bench.
Easy Lesson in Hygiene
So much has been published of a more or less technical
nature concerning food and health that wr are going to try
to give something in plain kitchen Kngli.sh. Our information
is taken from a talk by A. VV. McCann, of New York, who
Was a co-laborer with I>r. Wiley in the pure food crusade.
Statistic* show that of 20 million children of school age
in this country 15 millions are defective -in eves, teeth, glands,
bony structure or otherwise. This is largely due to their
being fed upon substances from which the 12 minerals in
the human body, and necessary to renew in that body, have
been removed. Chief among these 12 minerals are phos
phorus. iron, magnesium, calcium and flourine.
Common flour, rice, com meal and most breakfast cerrais
have been robbed of 75 per cent of their mineral product**,
largely by being prepared to look "white am! nice." Refined
sugar not only is robbed of minerals, but it destroys the iron
in the blood and as a food sweet cannot be compared to
honey, the brown sugars and natural molasses Fruits and
vegetables in their season and eggs and milk should be
Staples and there should be.a demand for whole wheat bread
made of whole wheat.
Mr. McCann makes a suggestion that sounds very good.
He would have children in school see two set* of chickens
fed for a time, one set on natural grains, the other on pol
ished rice, granulated corn meal and other "nice looking"
things for which people pay high prices and get bad eyes,
bad teeth, bad bones and bad stomaches.
EVIDENTLY music does |
not always soothe and charm
the souls of Commercial club
members.
TAFT persists in advocating
one term for presidents. In
his case the people seemed to
agree with him perfectly.
WHY the city light plant?
Why ? Because, for one reason,
you may not be able to get
any other service next week.

A few months ago the dty coun
cil threatened to pass an an fl
at mp hanging" ordinance, where
upon the I'uget Hound TracUou,
Electric l,lght and Power company
' promised' to remedy the crowd
ing of cara. and what haa been
the outcome?
I,arge plararda were put In each
car. ahowlng the number of paaa
angers that would be permitted to
ride on one car. Three or four
daya later the Inapectora notified
all the motoruien and conductors
to allow everybody to ride who
wanted to. and lo drop the "car
full" sign only whan some pas*
enger complained or called the
conductor's attention to the "prom-
IM."
One month laler even these
placards, with their icaaon In ad
dition. disappeared.
Now the same management la
trying to slip over another one in
practically the name manner. The
council haa been diacuaalng the
advisability of compelling the P
8. T. K. I- * P. Co to enrloas
and heat their cara. Immediately
the aforeaaid corporation again
cornea forward with their vague
and Indefinite promise that tbey
will heat the cara on the long (?)
runa, but nothing haa been said
about enclosing their atimmer cara
thla winter.
Their plan la aa follows: They
will equip a doxeii cars with one
or two heaters under one of the
forward Beats After about a week
they will notify their car-men to
turn off these heatera in warm
weather. The men will then be
told to turn on tbe heaters only
when sonic psancnger cotnplaina of
being cold. The next move will
be to disconnect the heatera en
tirely.
