HODGE—CANDIDATE FOR SHERIFF Among the candidates offering themselves for the repub lican nomination for the office of sheriff of King county, The Star is firmly of the opinion that Robert T. Hodge, of Black Diamond, is the man who can best serve the people of this county With the rugged honesty of the Highland Scotch, without a taint of physical or moral cowardice, sober and industrious, uty sheriff that will es rendered as de Mr himself as with a record of serv stand the closest serutiny, Hodge comes to the people of King county and that has for many offers a candidate for an office years been one of the most fruitful “grafts” in the state of Washington uld I will live upon the In seeking support Mr. Hodge promises that if he secure the office this graft will cease salary of $200 per month,” nstances use my position to add one cent says Hodge, “and will under no conditions or ciren Nei cent more than I would be required to pay for the board of cha Hodge adds, with characteristic to my income r would I accept from King county one prisoners in my And Mr have not been asked by friends to become a candidate for this frankness office because I know that if I gain it I will make a good official li-I did not need the money, or doubted my ability, [ should not be a candidate.” The Star believes in Mr. Hodge's honesty. It is con vinced that he is by far the most acceptable primary candidate For that reason it lends him its support. Mr man. Recently he mortgaged his home at Black Diamond that his wife might p¢ bronght to agseattle hospital for the purpose of having an operation performé@d. This has interfered some what with his campaign, but friends who know him well have come to his assistance and he has remained in the fight. If honesty and ability are what the people want in county offices, Mr. Hodge will be the republican nominee for the of- fice of sheriff. WOMEN AND WEALTH. We are apt to envy the wives of rich men. But the envy ought to be on the other side—and is. The unhappiest, most restless women in this land are the idle wives and daughters of the rich It is true they have fine houses, carriages and automobiles, fine dresses, magnificent jewels, stately calls upon one another, grand dinners, brilliant receptions and all that But it is all a veneer. It is merely a mahogany finish upon a base of ordinary, common timber. It is not happiness, but only a pretense of it—an extravagant attempt at imitation of it The great mass of women without wealth, who work in| their homes, rear their children themselves, cook the meals, mend the clothing and do the thousand and one unending tasks of the busy housewife need not envy the glistening butterflies of fashion. The happiest women in the world are the hard-working ones. Not overtaxed drudges, whose lives are necessarily mis erable, but the women whose time and minds and hands are ever occupied in making the home happier and life for those about them sweeter. To put a fine dress on a girl accustomed to nothing else since birth is to give no more real enjoyment to her than would be given to a doll by the same process But the pretty dress bought by a girl with her own earn- ings means a triumph and a joy as sweet as the human heart can know That dress is a part of the girl herself heart, her brain, her bone, her blood her life It stands for her It makes an epoch in It is the happy culmination of happy usefulness. None who observe even casually can fail to perceive the growing restlessness among the women of the great cities. ‘The enormous increase in divorces is but one symptom. The stead ily increasing popularity of apartment houses, where babies may not come, is but one cause The woman who appreciates her possible influence in the home will never fail to find plenty to do and find joy in doing it It is from the home she makes that most men—husbands as well as sons—form their ideals of life and fix their aspira tions If she is idle, restless and discontented, the home, instead of being a solid cornerstone of socic ty, becames a heap of sand that inks under every weight of trouble and shifts, with every , Yj ing | tide of passion and caprice | Although the girl's matrimonial | th?
