A recent issue of the Stanley (Wist) Republican contains one of many recent eulogies of Mayor Hanson, of Seattle. Many fine and high-sounding words are called iuto use to express admiration for the manner in which Seattle's mayor handled the recent bolshevik movement. The Sentinel would not take from Mayor Hanson any of the credit to which he is entitled, and he is entitled to u great deal, but just ns we would not take from l^uson anything that be longs to him. neither would we fail to give to others the credit to which they* are entitled. Mayor Hanson himself does not claim all the credit. He says that others are entitled to more credit than he is. Does anyone doubt that Mayor Hanson speaks the truthT Who are these others who are en titled to equal or greater eredit along with Mayor Hanson. The answer easy. They are the veteran leaders of organized labor who insisted that organ ized labor should not lend its great pow er to carry forward the destruction of America. Without the assistance of these calm, level headed men at the head o f the labor organizations Mayor Han son's efforts might Lave been in vain Certainly they would have been made much more difficult and there wonld have been bloodshed. The heads of or ganized labor insisted that their mem hers keep their contracts w ith their em ployers and go back to their jobs under pain o f expulsion. Thp men saw the fair ness o f that position—and the first great bolshevik movement in America ended in abject failure.' It might bo well right now to bring this point home— that the safety of America at this time depends in a large measure upon the steadying influence of honest organized labor and the part or ganized labor is playing and is going to play should not be lightly* referred to or brushed aside with little thought while the glory is given to those wh bravely stood in the blinding limelight. PRIMARY DOWNED IN IDAHO. The repeal of the direct primary law in Idaho and the return to the old con vention system comes as something of a surprise. To many* the return to the old system seems like a step backward, and those in Oregon who have thought they would like to return to the old sys tem will look with interest upon the re suit in our sister state. Whether or not the return to the con vention system is a step hark wards will depend upon the manner in which the convention system is used. If the return to the old system means a return to the old practices that went with the eon vention system and which resulted in its overthrow, it will be but a little while until the primary* is again demanded. The old boss system can never come back. * Many believe that the convention sys tem can be made just as fair and more satisfactory than the primary system. It is certain that the convention system is cheaper for candidates and will save the state the heavy expense that goes with the primary election. If anyone has a kick upon the return to the old system it should be the news papers, who will be thereby robbed of a large portion of the advertising that is theirs under the primary system and will be bereft of some of the tremendous influence that is theirs under this sys tern. Nevertheless a large number of the newspapers think that it would be well to give the old convention system another trial. WITHYCOMBE IS DEAD. The death of Governor Withycombc, though it came as no surprise to his friends who saw him during the recent session of the legislature and was no surprise to the governor nnd his family, is none the less regrettable nnd he is none the less mourned. In fact his death is made more sad becanse o f the fact that it was regarded as certain, because the governor himself expected it nnd be cause plans which he wished to make for his going were not completed. He wished particularly to be succeeded by one with whom he had worked in har mony nnd the fart that he wonld be succeeded by one whom he regarded ns a bitter political enemy was one o f his keenest regrets. It is known thnt he wished to be spared until the people could authorize the appointment o f a lieutenant governor. Althongh it seemed like a rather ghoulish thing to do to make preparations for the death of one whom they prayed might be spared, yet it is certain thnt it was the wish of the governor thnt such notion be taken. Few governors o f Oregon have been more beloved than has been the late executive and he was the only republi can ever to be reelected to this high office. Because of his red blooded Americanism he beenme known as the war governor and attained a vote-get ting power in the late election that none could overcome. He had served but two months o f hia second term. While the succession of Olcott is un satisfactory to the republican party of the state, vet it is conceded that he will make a good governor and it is the be lief of The Sentinel that Mr. Olcott sin j cerely hoped that tlovernor Withycombc | would liv«> out his term. While Olcott I has long bad an ambition to become governor he undoubtedly* greatly re grets coming into office in this man nor. © H1NCS WE THINK Dungs Others TVnk and Wtint W« April McCall Patterns Are Now On Sale.
