THE STAR—TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1909 ek eae eal ANS ‘The “Candidacy of Mr. Bouillon In response to a demand that has made itself manifest throughout the entire city, Mr. A. V. Bouillon, until recently | superintendent of public utilities, has consented to become a candidate for the republican nomination for mayor. It required a great amount of persuasive argument to con- vince Mr, Bouillon that it was his duty to enter the approaching campaiga, Bouillon is not a politician, He knows nothing of the game as it is played today. The suggestion that his removal from office because of his proclivities for uncovering graft and irrega- larities made him the logical candidate did not appeal to him. He considered the matter solely from the standpoint of good citizenship and when shown that the position of mayor was one that he could acceptably fill, and that there was an almost unanimous demand that he seck the position, he finally gave his consent. The Star believes that there is no man in the republican party in Seattle better fitted for discharging the duties of the office of mayor than is A. V. Bouillon. Certainly none of those who have already been mentioned as possible candidates can compare with the late superintendent of public utilities. Bouillon’s conduct while in office brought to every honest man in the community the conviction that here at last was an official who wouldn't “trim”—a man who thought more of the people than he did of a political party—one whose principles were to be adhered to even though he should lose his job A TROUBLE-MAKER, HIS OPPONENTS SAID! 7 AND NO ONE OF BOUILLON’S FRIENDS ROSE TO DENY THE CHARGE! For he is a trouble-maker. Just the same sort of a trouble-maker as is Private Citizen Roosevelt! Just as the honest policeman makes trouble for the criminal, so Bouillon makes trouble for the office-holder found wandering from the path of rectitude! As Theodore Roosevelt made trouble for the violator of the law, so has Bouillon in the past and so will he in the future. It’s a trouble-maker that we need in our municipal Se SESE RRR ERR Ree ee HINDU’ VIEW OF AMERICA “| DIDN'T EXPECT TO FIND CASTE IN AMERICA,” SAYS TISHI BHUTIA, BRAHMIN OF HIGH BUT HE FOUND LOTS OF IT, .

And it is harmony that makes grafters and thieves. Harmony has sent thousands of men in the United States to the penitentiary and will continue to send thousands more unless the people seek out some of these trouble-makers and put them into office. Seattle is fortunate in having found a troubleamaker who is willing to seek the nomination for mayor at the republican primaries, There will be no lack of the “harmony” type among the candidates, so that the issue will be clearly drawn and there will be no excuse for confusion in the mind of the voter.
