Member of the United Proas, Pub= Nehed dally by TM Star Publi tng Co. “SEATTLE NEEDS MR. BOUILLON Since Mayor Miller in his petulant wisdom saw fit to remove Mr. Bouillon from the office which he so capably filled, The Star has been at pains to learn the sentiment of the people concerning Mr. Bouillon as a city official, and the result has been to demonstrate clearly that the people of Seattle want Mr. Bouillon in office, : This conclusion is not based on any sentimental rea- sons, although it cannot be denied that public feeling re- sents his dismissal as unjust and uncalled for. So far, there has not been adduced a single reason by the mayor or any of his supporters for the discharge of Mr, Bouillon, except that he persisted in doing his duty to ¢he public in spite of all official and private opposition. But, aside from all this, Mr. Bouillon’s record in office has been such as to assure the people that he belongs to that rare class of officials who look upon a public office as a trust, a duty, and not a means for personal enhancement. One cannot but speculate on the different outcome, if Mr. Bouillon were mayor and his superintendent of public utilities should open up a nest of graft for investigation, No one can conceive of rt. Bouillon’s dismissing his informing officer and doing his best to hide the ugly facts. That is not the sort of mayor Mr Bouillon would make. Any one at all observant of Mr, Bouil- lon’s conduct while in office will be certain that he would go to the bottom of all charges, treating friend and foe alike, and sparing none until the whole matter was cleared. Each day's disclosure in matters municipal shows con clusively that a man of Mr. Bouillon’s courage, honesty and ability is needed at the head of the city government. There is an imperative demand for not a few reforms, and there is no hope for them through the promises of politicians and friends of those most intimately concerned Mr. Bouillon is peculiarly fitted for this work. He has proven his ability and intentions on numerous occasions, There is no one so high and mighty as to intimidate him; there is none whom he dares not attack. These quali- ties have been the means of ousting him from an appointive office and these qualities promise to be the means of install- ing him in a higher position by the votes of the people. From a purely political standpoint, Mr. Bouillon’s can- didacy has in it the elements of strength. By centering on him, the republican party can forget all animosities that have been engendered by past contests. Bouillon has no political debts to pay, no political wrongs to avenge. He would accept the nomination with free hands, bound to no policy but the will of the people and the greatest good to the greatest number. After that everything went love- ly. The father promised his daugh- ter he would not buy the factory. My owner asked for forgiveness, STAR'S DAILY SHORT STORIES THE DIARY OF A BURGLAR’S JIMMY BY FRANK H. WILLIAMS. MONDAY—-Tonight, for the first T am to assist a burglar in es a sedeonee into a house. I quail at the thought. I am not so I fear, as the other jimmys : “DON'T START ON THE WRONG make it impossible for any housebreaker to use me, but my ag go have been dashed. ‘was purchased this morning by a rather good-looking youth, who, however, had evidently been up against the world good and hard. “I—you know what I want,” he said to the man who made me, a villainous old man. “I—this is my first attempt at anything of this sort and I—I don’t know exactly I want.” Then he burst out, anger, “But the world owes me and I'm going to get the Hving by hook or crook!” “Sure,” said my owner, “and I'm glad I can help you out. I'm sell- ing out my place and I'm the glad man that the last person I sell a Simmy to ts you.” I was bought and I hate fearfully the thought of what Is be- fore me tonight. TUBSDAY—Well, my burglaring are over and I'm glad of it. It about like this: iY new owner took me up to a big, dark house about 2 o'clock this morning. He was trembling badly and I felt that he disliked the job himself, but that hunger and des- peration were driving him on. With my help he entered the house through a window. Inside we found PATH,” THE GIRL ADED. which was granted him, and in ad dition the father gave him a good job. Then the pretty girl took me upstairs to her room, and from the nice things she has already confid- ed to me in regard to the impres- sion my owner made on her, I can see that talngs are going to go very well with that lucky young man. ae Typewriter: Office supply arti cle that uses up ribbons and chew ing gum.
