Time and again innocent men have been sent to prisons and tentiar! having been wrongfully convicted on circumstantial, © per fured evidence. They have suffered the loss of all that men hold dearest freedom and the respect of their friends and fellow men, They have tolled in felon’s stripes, and have suffered shame and humiliation. Later discoveries have been made which show them to b victims of from a the ensate those who have suffered monstrous injustice, and they have been turned loose, but with cc brands indelibly stamped upon thelr brows. Few such men have eve recovered their places in soctety. None have ever been compensated for the agony they have endured unjustly, nor for the years of time which they have lost. Why should a government be so unjust? Why should it for the only atonement possible, the recovery from the state of monetary damages for false imprisonment? It has such laws for the protection of one citizen from false imprisonment by another, but from its own 1 takes there is provided no appeal Each civilized nation should have laws under which wi vieted men, whose innoce monetary damag provide ngtulty o @ is subsequently demonstrated, can r which will, in a way, partly compensate them for the years of wrongful Imprisonment to which they have been subjected Simply because each government has the physical power to withhold Ju tice from these grievously wronged persons, is no reason why it should do so. The state of Washington ts young in the family of the Republic, but it might well set an example for other states to follow tn this matter, — A FEW FACTS REVE ‘The real reason for the strenuous objections of private lichting com panies to a municipal electric plant at Cedar Falls can be easily under- Stood when one investigates just an inch below the surface of things Cedar Falls can generate power more cheaply than any other falls in Western Washington, also more cheaply than any private company can do by using steam power, AS A DIRECT RESULT THE: CITY CAD SELL POWER AND LIGHT TO PRIVATE CONSUMERS MORE CHEAPLY THAN ANY RIVAL CORPORATION CAN SELL ITS PRODUCT. Here are some facts: Cedar Falls are 620 feet high, and p volume. They are therefore capable of furnishing a maximum working enesgy for eleotrical generators nearly two and one-half times greater than the maximum energy at Snoqualmie, where the falls have a height of only 268 feet. Consequently, if two generators of equal size and identical construction were placed, one at Snoqualmie Falls and the other at Cedar Falls. THE ONE AT CEDAR FALLS WOULD RE ARLE TO PRODUCE TWO AND ONE-HALF TIMES AS MUCH ELECTRI« AL ENERGY AS THE ONE AT SNOQUALMIE. THE COST OF THE MAINTENANCE AND OPERATION OF THE TWO GENERAT- ORS WOULD BE EXACTLY THE SAME. All great Inventions and improvements have ‘The labor-saving and product-increasing d counter bitter opposition from those who feared that their would be adversely affected.
