The question naturally arises now: Did Mr. | Gill know what this man contemplated doing when he sent him | to Mr. Murphy? In any event an expianation is forthcoming from Mr, Gill. s And if Mr. Murphy and Mr, Revelle were approached, isn't} it reasonable to suppose that other members of the council were | seen by the same interests % When, in the face of public opinion and the advice of the health commissioner, members of the city council go as far as this combine has gone in order to defeat the plans of Mr, Mur phy for a municipal garbage collection system, haven't we a “right to assume that they are moved by other than patriotic motives? Haven't we a right to assume that there may be other mem- berseof the city council who looked more favorably upon these | offers than did Mr, Murphy or Mr. Revelle? There are explanations to be made by several membets of | the council—explanations that will be necessary in order to re- lieve them of the suspicion that they may have soiled their fingers in this fight. The Star trusts that the attempts at bribery went no further than Councilmen Murphy and Revelle. It would be gratified to know also that President Gill didn’t! tempt to bribe the councilman-at-large. But The Star wants t6 know and the people want to know} just how far this thing has gone. We want to know what these| hired councilmen of ours are doing—whether they are selling us| out or not. | -seem not to be aware of it, the people of Seattle, the men who! pay the taxes and the salaries of the councilmen, should know} something about the manner in which their business is being conducted. ‘8 ' And there has come a time now when they will insist wel knowing—when they will insist upon knowing who, if any, of | their servants are bribe-takers, and why the president of their | the council. / It is about time the people were looking into their business | affairs. If Senator Ankeny makes many more speeches such as he made tm Seattle yesterday, bis opponent for the senatorial nomination will Bot find it necessary to continue an active campaign. “Miss Sutton plays in winning form,” says a head on a sporting | pege. Whereat we desire to say that a woman who exercises as much | as does Miss Sutton should have a “winning” form. That loud clap of thunder you heard yesterday afternoon wasn't what you thought it was. It was Dugdale’s face breaking into a sinile. For Seattle won a ball game! . If George F. Cotterill ever got into the United States senate, what a team he and LaFollette ld make!
