The purpose of the public market is to provide an oppor tunity for producers of fruits and vegetables to deal direct with the consumers, and thus avoid the evil of price-fixing and ex orbitant profits. If the market does not give the ‘farmers of the county free opportunity to sell, unhampered, to producers, its benefit to the consumer is largely gone That Western av. has gotten a strong hold on the market is undeniable. It supplies many of the booths in the market and is fast getting contro! of the stalls outside the building, which are intended for farmers alone Honest work by efficient inspectors will insure the stalls to the farmers. Every man who applies for a stall on the mar ket should be required to make affidavit before a notary that he raised the produce which he offers for sale. If one makes a false affidavit, he should be prosecuted Such a rule cannot be made to apply to market building, for which rent is paid, but the free stalls out side should be kept for the farmers The system of drawing lots for the st practically bars out | voth te farmers who come from a dis git tance, and should be abolished, The rule of “First come, first] ast year and there were no com served,” worked very well plaints that a market inspector was juggling a lottery system | to give preference to favored interests You never heard of Charles Edward Appleby, did yout Yoars ago he put a fow dollars into New York real estate and he kept at ft until now, at the age of 80 years, he is worth $49,000,000.

After they are gone Seattle will know they bave been here, for the Eagle on a vacation is @ very gay bird. If the people of Seattle had a lick o° sense they'd rise right up fm thetr might and deciare that if they couldn't get seats on the street tars they wouldn't pay any fare. There's an excellent chance bere for some one to cop out immortality for himself by starting such a move tm a speech at Auburn Saturday night, io referring to the alleged Piles-Ankeny-Sweeney agreement, Mr. Charlies 8. Gleason asked “Suppose we had refused to make the agreement and had failed to elect a United States senator?’ Well, suppose we had’ What then? If you are going to join the army of candidates, {t's about time You were shying your castor into the ring. They will make the ballot just as big as is necessary to contain all the names, so you Reedn't worry on that score. William H. Taft is pining away because the poor man gets the worst of it in the administration of justice. That's what comes of be- ing @ candidate. Also, William H. can afford to pine away a little. Mr. Taft attended church yesterday morning and the minister preached from the text: “(jet up and eat, for the journey is too long for you.” And then Mr. Taft went back to his hotel for dinner. > The students of the University of Washington are going to pub- Wah o comic journal.

The “Kingdom College Association” is the latest in the line of Beattic educational institutions. Its purpose is “the unfoldment of the visible human body into permaneney,” whatever that is.
