DEMAND A GRAND JURY _) Now that the Renton Hill Improvement club has started agitation for a grand Jury investigation into city and county | affairs, other organizations of citizens in the city should fall} immediately into line and join in the request of the superior Court to call such a body. Causes for investigation are abundant. ory of Seattle have the people been subjected to such extor- flon in so many lines as at present. Organized greed confronts the individual in nearly every direction until he knows not where to turn. So had have conditions become that the future growtli of Seattle is threatened. With coal scarce and exorbitant in price, the city cannot hope to increase in manufacturing. With the cost of living way beyond reason and entirely out of propor- fion to wages, the city cannot hope to maintain tts rapid in- @rease in population. The cost of coal governs the growth of Manufacturing and the cost of living governs the growth of the population. ‘To maintain its present rate of growth, Se- attle must correct the abuses which are at present making themselves so flagrantly felt. A grand jury is the only corrective means at hand, A Qtand jury well selected and well conducted, could get to the bottom of abuses in Seattle and open the way for the courts to correct them. A grand jury could uncover much of the fottenness which is believed to exist, provided the investiga ton is honestly conducted with that object always in view. Grand jury investigations prove to be farcical or success fa! in proportion to the inefficiency or the vigor of the public proseentor who conducts them. A grand jury depends largely upon the guidance of the prosecuting attorney in the subjects to be investigated and the lines of Investigation to be followed. ‘Aa active prosecuting attorney always finds plenty of work for a grand jury to perform, while an inefficient or dishonest prosecutor causes the grand jury fiascos which are used by the enemies of that method of procedure as examples of grand jury inefficiency. An exceptional opportunity for effective grand jury work @xists in Seattle. The people can secure a grand jury, if they @emand it. The will of the people is sovereign. All that is mecessary is that it be expressed in unmistakable terms. By all means, the Renton Hill Improvement club and other anizations should ask the superior court for a grand jury. } ta organization of importance in the city should join in the Fequest, for public opinion is the strongest possible incentive fe the enforcement of law, and, if the people make their demand emphatic and unmistakable, an effective investigation and suc gesstul prosecutions will follow. “NOTHING IS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE” Never in the his-| Walter Wellman, with bis airship, ie about to start on bis quest for the north pole. Except for the eireless, he is out off. Before him are the glittering ice fields, the trackless wastes ot snow, unknown perils and dangers. How do you Imagine he fests about it? tee es We say—what Is the use of discovering the north pole? Practically, there isn't much. It will not add a single dollar to circulation. But it will add s great deal to knowledge when we shall have explored the 11,000,000 square miles about which we know nothing today. We will know the pressure of the atmosphere in those regions, the direction and force of the winds, the kinds and movements of the clouds. We shall be better acquainted with the aurora. We shall know the temperature of the northern sea at its level and tn its depths. We shall chart its currents and cateuiate its tides, We shall understand the velocity of sound in low temperatures. We shall know the fascinating natural history of the polar regions, about {ts birds, its beasts, ita water. creatures, its vegetation, its mosses and lichens. We shall make maps of its geography, berrow into its rocks and ice, and bring home samples of its afr. As intrepid Sir John Barrow said many years ago “The north pole is the only thing in the world about which we know nothing,” and science can never know the whole story of the world until it knows all the world. . . . . Put, overshadowing all that learn, there is the achievement of an ideal. science may The frozen north has been calling mankind for centaries, even before stout old Harald Hardra king of the northmen, under took to solve its mystery. Man always wants to do what man has never done before, and that is why the great quiet north has its long list of martyrs. Wellman may be one more. We are hoping he will not be We are hoping for his success, and that his big airship will carry him swiftly and skfely over the wide expanse and bring him home again. We can't help admiring his pluck, and then we all want America to be the first to set foot upon the spot where every direction is due south. But even if Wellman fails, he has taught us something ‘othing is too high to be reached Do you believe that? nition spread its wings that far? “Nothing Is too | 1" » you know in your heart that this is true, at by lack of faith? | . ee Fa | Some day a hero will stand at the north pole. Every day some some woman realizes a great ambition. But the reason the hero will stand at the pole, and the reason the ambi- | tion is achieved, is because each has believed that “Nothing is too | high to be reached, of too good to be true.” WOLF IN SHEEP'S CLOTHING T lock Holmes my over lost papers which has ¢ ve 1 in connection with Marlo Carrau’s fight for the fortune let John Sullivan, makes very interesting reading.
