The tables have been reversed in the Presi- dential preferential straw vote that is being spon- sored by the Seattle Star, the Tacoma Times and the Spokane Pre cripps-Howard daily news- papers, and Gov. Smith is now leading Mr. Hoover and adding to his lead daily in the State-wide poll. In Seattle Gov. Smith is about 40 per cent. akead of Hoover, and his majority in both Spokane and Tacoma is substantial. Gov. Hart- ley is leading in the Governorship poll and Sen- ator Dill in the Senatorial. Senator Dill has an advantage, however, he is running alone for the Democratic nomination and former Chief Justice Mackintosh, former Senator Poindexter and Judge Griffiths of Seattle dividing the Republican votes—with Mackintosh ahead. The first votes to come in this contest show- ed Hoover ahead of Smith, but the situation was soon rever: because are CHURCHES AND POLITICS.

The state of the people of sweltering places like New York, Philadelphia and Boston, all seaboard cities, compared to that of Chicago is deserving of pity. The child of the congested districts of New York, if lucky, can stand on the hot pavements and have a hose played on him. The Chicago child of the tene- ments can go to the lake shore almost anywhere and bathe i the open lake or the protected lagoons With these words of the Chicago Tribune many New York patriots will take issue; they | will point to Coney Island and our other beaches, our lower temperatures, Chicago’s hot prairie winds, and so on. But the compariscn has a great deal of truth. Chic is now utilizing nearly all her lake front has long had the northern and Lincoln water-frent, the |southern and Jackson front; she has been rapidly filling in the great central area till she has the immediate pros t of a superb line parks, lagoons and drives all along the inland Few other great cities in the world can And New York?

(High Point, N. C., Enterprise.) The American Gevernment has always believed that public utilities should be owned by private capital. Its policy has always been to leave such service in the hands of private individuals, with the exception of the brief experiment with Gov- ernment operation of the railroads during the war. That the Government is thoroughly com- mitted to this policy is evidenced by the haste with which the railroads were returned to their owners after the war. Results of the policy of non-interference with public utilities evidence is wisdom. Sir Robert Donald, Chairman of Great Britain's Wireless Committee, in the London Daily Mail, recently referred to the success of the Western Union Telegraph Compan while other British crities, official and editorial, have frankly praised Am- erican private owned telegarph and cable sys- tems, and criticised and condemned the Govern- ment-owned system of their own country. Both the telephone and telegraph systems of Europe, under Government control, render notoriously bad service. Americans who complain of the service at home should have the experience of depending upon the service abroad. Private capital invested in public utilities is naturally more likely to give to the public good service than the Government would be, for it must get its profits from the public. It, there- fore, assumes great initiative in extending the use of its rvice b, dvertising and by increased efficiency. As a result all forms of public utili- ;'ll'\ in Vh(- hands of private individuals in Am- erica are far more widely used in this country that abroad. The day of censuring the cor- porations in America has practically passed, for the people are finding thelr service good. " Lake- Wwise has passed the day when monopolies fix exhorbitant prices, for they have found their profit in widening the scope of their service.

He believes the end justifies the means. There has probably not been- a erookeder political organi- zation in the United States than the Anti-Saloon League. One of its leaders was sent to the pen for crooked politics ‘and the Chicago Tribune, “America's greatest newspaper,” sa Leader Mec- Bride, who succeeded Wayne Wheeler, is a crook. We know the organization worked hand-in-glove with Senator Pepper in that notorious primary when he spent three times as much money to get the Republican nomination on a dry platform as Vare spent to get it on a wet platform, and Vare was refused his seat because he spent too much. We know, further, that it has been ad- mitted that Senators and Representatives in Con- gress have been in the pay of the Anti-Saloon League, which confesses that it spent $65,000,- 000 to put prohibition over and keep it put over. No wonder that William Allen White retracted his chArges against Gov. Smith in an effort to get out of the company of Bishop Cannon, Dr. Wilson and the other character Beosioniormry o of June 30, the end of the fiscal year, show- ed a surplus of $398,000,000, only $7,000,- 000 less than the figure forecast a year ago.
