FINISH FOR POLITICAL CROOKS IN THIS STATE
The campaign of the character-assassins against "Bob" Hodge, started
by his frenzied opponents when they could not meet him in a fair discussion
of state issues, is not without its ridiculous side.
They have let their desperate desire to defeat Hodge warp their senses
to such an extent that they have even made an absurd and utterly foolish
attack upon Hodge's naturalization.
They charge Hodge with perjury —they charge him with a criminal act—
because his first and second papers were not gotten out at least two years
apart. But Hodge never needed first papers as a matter of law. He came to
this country, to Taeoma, when he was 15 years old. He was a minor when
he declared his intention to become a citizen of the U. S. The laws did not
then, the laws do not now, require that he should get out first papers. Sec
ond papers—final papers, as they are called —are the only papers that Hodge
needed then or now, to establish his citizenship beyond any dispute of any
sort.
The standpatters know this to be true. They know they lie, deliberately,
and maliciously. But they are desperate and frantic. They know the people
are deserting the old crooked standpat gang and they are trying and will
continue to try by any silly ridiculous methods to stem the tide. But the
tide can't be stemmed. The people of this state have had enough of the
political crooks. They are throwing them off one by one as the opportunity
is offered.
This fall the people have their first chance to make a clean sweep and
they are going to make it.
Beans, beans, who does not eat beans today? The fellow who won can eat
beans because they're the symbols of his good luck. The fellow who lost has
to eat beans.
Putty Governor Hay blocked the presidential preference primary law.
He blocked the initiative on constitutional amendments. But he wants you
to regard him as a progressive. This is another reason why he needs $13,000
for a primary campaign and $50,000 for the final campaign!
And at the very time little Philander Knox was making his Seattle speech
against a third term, an anti-third term crank was shooting Roosevelt. Philan
will live a long time before he's permitted to forget the untimeliness of that
speech.
Commissioner Woods does not seem to like scrutiny and criticism at the
hands of the women of the social service board.
Andy Gunderson's statement to the city council that he gave "advice" to
Hans Pederson's employes but no "orders" after he went to work for the city
shows he should have been a lawyer instead of an electrician.

Love, Life and The Wolf
'A Thrilling Story of the Slums, In Five Chapters.
BY E. C. BODGKRS.
CHAPTER 111.
Katie Haskins got another Job
in a paper box factory, where an
other girl told her that she would
not be subjected to the insults
she had experienced in her last
position. But the wages were a
dollar a week less, and that made
it all the more difficult for Widow
Haskins to make both ends meet.
But she tried to keep the other
children, old enough, in school,
until one day Jennie" "took" the
whooping cough, and little Henry
and the baby soon had it. That
filled the house with more sor
row and piled a deal of care and
more work on the mother's shoul
ders. Now she couldn't go out to
wash and scrub.
She did the washing and Iron
ing at home then, but in the three
room tenement there wasn't room
for wash tubs and three sick
babies. Then the widow got work
in an office building scrubbing
floors from 5 to 8 in the morning
and from 4 to 10 at night. It
paid her better, but she had to be
away from home many hours each
day. .
Mary had to quit school to care
for the sick children. .limmle
also quit school when his mother
fell down the stairs and sprained
her back so badly that she could
not scrub any more. The little
fellow got a job as messenger and
that helped out, but still the
plainest of foods and the cheap
est of clothes, added to the doctor
bills and the medicine for one 111-

ness after another kept the little
"wolf" at the door.
The slum tenement was foul,
ill-smelling, unsanitary. Drunken
men and women staggered in and
out; curses and quarrels rent the
air day and night; children grew
up with frail, sickly bodies and
unmoral minds.
The Hasklns children forgot
the nice, quiet, wholesome pelgh
borhood where they had lived
while their father was alive and
absorbed the tenement life with
all it means. They didn't go to
church or Sunday school any
more—they had no fit clothing.
Their mother was too 111 and over
worked to . patch and darn and
keep them clean. Often at night
she was too worn out to kneel
with them tor prayer. So that

was how Jack and Mary happened
to be down In the street one morn
ing. ' Other ! children were telling
how easy it was to "swipe" ba
nanas and other fruit and even
vegetables from grocery stores.
They told Jack to try It, and
he and Mary slipped up to the cor
ner grocery and took a. basket of
turnips—they thought la would
help out at dinner. But they were
not as experienced as the other
slum children. They didn't stop
to look in and see where the gro
ceryman was. He saw them.
Running out quickly, he caught
both and called a policeman.,
