Washington and Prohibition.
WASHINGTON has "given the ttmttry twin prohibition
prohibition explosions in the past few days. Saturday
the state reTutHcdn convention adopted a resotatkm calling
for modification of prohibition. Monday the federal grand
jury in Seattle ferwug-ht m indictments charging bribery and
corruption against Roy C. Lyfe and W. M. Whitney, heads Ji
the profcibitiors enforcement division of the. federal govern
ment in Seattle. These are twin jolts -which friends of pro
hibition in the northwest are Staggering under. We Antiai
pate however a pronouneed reaction which will strengthen
the dry.fwpceV
Orie mast understand something of Washington politics
to know just what Is back, of these proceedings.
Waxhingtta has one county, King, which corresponds to
Mnftnoaah etranty in Oregon. The present ruling element In
Kmgncotmty YepdbCcaitt committee is decidedly wet. Kaipn A.
Horr, chairman, 4a an attorney whose practice includes de
fense f these charged with violating prohibitum laws. Wash
fngton has a' party contention meetimj every two years. This
does nothing but adopt a platform, in presidential years elect
delegates to the national convention, and choose 'or endorse
the member of the national committee. In "off years the
convention is trsualty of little significance. This was an "off
year in Washington politics no national delegates to choose,
nor national committeeman; no senator or governor being
elected. In these years it is therefore an easy matter for the
regulars in the party machinery in the counties to pick the
delegates to the state convention. In some counties no county
convention at all was held, the central committee hand
picking the delegates to the Jtellingham convention.
King county, manipulated by Ralph Horr, held a con
vention vhs&e delegates adopted a Wet plank and Iben bound
it large block of nearly 250 delegates to the state convention
to vote as a unit. Grays Harbor county, always a "wet"
county, likewise turned in a "wet" delegation. Thus the wets
had a solid block of considerable size, most of them bound
order the unit rule. The next bit of strategy on offering the
wet resolution was to permit secret balloting. This enabled
the wets to pick up a few votes from Spokane county and put
the resolution through by a margin of eight votes. In actual
point of numbers the dries had the majority but through
adroit maneuvering of the wets under the Horr leadership
they were put t orout. The repercussions are bound to be felt
in Washington politics just as the old Aberdeen convention in
1812 split the party In Washington and was one of the great-
est factors in the formation of the Progressive party tinder
Roosevelt.
On a straight referendum on prohibition we are confi
dent that the voters of Washington would decisively repudi
ate any move toward modification, of prohibition.
The indictment of Lyte and Whitney brings up more of
Washington pontics. m&s designated and held in off ice
by Senator Jones, whose devotion to the, cause of prohibition
is well known. Ht has been subject to severe attack, not so
much on his own account as that of Whitney, his legal as
sistant. The Seattle district is one of the hardest to patrol of
any in the county. Canada borders it on the north and Paget
sound offers limitless possibilities of landing liquors from
Vancouver. The fight has been desperately hard, but Lyje
has been successful in breaking up many big liquor Tings,
including those on Grays. Harbor and the Olmstead ring.
There is therefore bitter hostility to him and to Whitney. Our
personal opinion is that much of it is inspired by forces hos
tile to prohibition enforcement. We have no knowledge of
the pending charges; but having known Roy Lyle for many
years we profess our confidence in his integrity and his de
votion to duty.
There is another angle to the situation. The United
States marshal in Seattle is Ed Benn. Benn was a political
power on Grays Harbor, above referred to as one of the wet
spots In Washington. His appointment "was nurelv a nolitieal
one. Those who remember back twenty years will recall the
big fight in Seattle over Hi Gill, picturesque mayor of the
city, the last of the mayors of "wide open town" days. CAW
was recalled, and was tried on charges of graft. A leading
witness in his behalf was his brother-in-law, Ed Benn, who
when evidence showed Gill had come into possession of a
large Bum of money, testified that lie tad taken it to him in
a suit case. This year Senator Jones has refused to recom
mend Benn for reappointment; the friends of prohibition
enforcement have never had confidence in him as marshal.
This fjght entered Into the'Beffinghatn convention rje
cause tka same convention trtdch repudiated prohibition en
dorsed Ed Benn! To our notion this is a pretty good" clear
Jrnce for Lyle, who has notbeen satisfied -with Benn as mafc
tftai. .

Today's TaHc
By K. K Cbpcland; JJ. fj.
Nd matter "swhoft. thluason..
there, seems tobejceetfs going, tho
rounds. But. during tho Sprint
saonthsi parti
culsrty, w e
hear of many
bad' epidemics
of colds. No
section of the
country seems
to be free
from them.
During the
past few
weeks in New
.York City a
-eel epidemic
ot colds has
made life mis
erable for
thousands of
CaQftU!0 persons. In
fected throats.
witb mucto sneezing, symptoms
which hang on for weeks at a
time, have worn down the resist
ance of those afflicted.
If parson has an infection.
such as a Cold, it means that a
certain germ has attacked the na
sal mucous membrane and that
the toxins from' that germ are be
iag absorbed Into the system. The
mucous membrane cells then go
through the reaction of inflam
mation, a person has become sick
because certain cellB of his body
are no longer normal.
When the toxin poisoning: is
sufficiently virulent all the mus
cle cOUs may be affected. Then
you ache as S result.
The relation between fatigue
and infectious diseases has not
been a;ell known by the general
public. With "fatigue there usually
comes constipation and stomach
disorder. 'You kpow how this is.
SHiters and coughs and sneezes
come to make you miserable.
Nd matter what season of the
year is upon us, yen should not
neglect a cold. The after-effects
of a cold may last well into the
summer months. Such a person
finds himself susceptible to every
draft and to every change In the
weather.
The Inflammation of the mu
cous tinlng of the nose and the
throat can be relieved with a ten
per cent solution of argyrol which
cleanses and dlsiafeeta. Using a
spray of a good alkaline solution
helps to clear the nasal passages.
A cold asuatly means that the
system must do rid of excessive
acidity. To reduce this condition
soda may be taken internally.
Thorosgh elimination helps to
carry off other toxemias and the
body cells are then better able to
combat the acute condition.
If you want to get rid of a cold
you must exerelse. Walking is the
ideal physical activity needed at
this time. One can often "walk
off" a cold. Vigorous exercise ot
this kind is the best thing in the
world for the sluggish condition
which always aeeompasies a cold.
Get the skin to' glowing and perspiring-.
Exercise helps to eliminate the
body poisons, wntle it puts the ab
dominal muscles Into better con
dition. The circulation of the
blood is quickened.
Yon should eat the most sim
ple food and stay away from all
places of amusement where the
air is contaminated. Sleep with
an the windows open. Be warmly
enough dressed in changeable
weather, and If It Is warm weath
er do not sit ia drafts.
Rest is one of nature's greatest
remedies. It Is Impossible to try
to throw off the infections of a
cold snd te'use up yeur energy is
hard work aU at the same time.
Children, as well as adults, whe
have had colds should have long
hours of sleep and rest in order
to give the body cells recuperative
power. The fatigue element low
er resistance to disease, and this
should le avoided.
