é M a ee sand since the advent of Wappenstein never saw a patrolman, Member of the United Press. Published dally by The Star Pub- Hering Co. Austin E. Griffiths Now that the election is a thing of the past, and amend | ments to the charter have carried which put a premium on de-| e-spirited citizenship, it is proper to port) cent, honest and pu one conspicuous example of these qualities, The example in} mind is that of Austin B, Griffiths, and to aveh as are ambitious to succeed under the new order, his conduct may well serve as a model How Mr. Griffiths sunk his personal ambitions in the pri mary campaign, how he worked for his opponent's success, how he “quit the party” and strove to elect a man who happened to} be a democrat, we assume is generally known by this time These actions indicate a high order of citixenship, for they prove that Mr. Griffiths puts more value on the general welfare of the community than in the satisfaction of his legitimate as- pirations; that he is above all political resentment, and, perhaps best of all, that he is not obsessed with the “party” idea and is not dominated by mere labels The advantage that will accrue to any community in the possession of men of this calibre must be obvious, Given suf ficient numbers of such men and the pre m of would be solved, for the necessity of government wou d be re The basic trouble today is reducible to government duced to a minimum greed—greed for money, for power and for the satisfaction of All the misgovernment that we suffer ain Can personal ambitions. der runs back to this because they me human frailty. ates do not strive for office believe they can better than their opponents, but because they have some bition that is founded on one of the million brands of greed When candidates are amenable to reason to the extent that) they can be shown that they are complicating matters or endan- gering issues, with the result that they willingly step aside, as/ Mr. Griffiths did, good government will be the rule and not the} j am-| | | negligible exception, as it now is, That Mr, Griffiths’ sacrifice was in a measure vain docs not} in the least detract from his credit, Under the present system) of election, his efforts were futile and he was deprived of his} reward. But there will be other elections in the future under conditions more conducive to the success of men of the type of Mr, Griffiths, and Mr. Griffiths has already placed the right thinking citizens of Seattle under obligations to him. In the meantime, he may well rest content with the knowledge that got a few persons in this community know and appreciate his actions, and that he has set a standard of disintesested citizen- ship that is worthy of attainment The more men of Mr. Griffiths’ character that Seattle has the more this city will prosper. . Charles W. Wappenstein The Star desires to congratulate Mayor-elect Hiram C. Gill tpon his choice of Charles W. Wappenstein for chief of police. If Mr. Gill will give Mr. Wappenstein as free a hand as that given him during the administration of Willlam Hickman Moore, Seattle will have a police administration second to none in the country. During the Moore administration, with Mr. Wappenstein as chief, this city suffered less from criminal work than ever be- fore in its history. Residence sections of the city, which before were regularly patrolled, to the end that there were very few} burglaries. | Given the Proper support and without improper interfer-| ence, Mr. Wappenstein will, in the opinion of The Star, prove} himself to be one of the best police chiefs in the United States, | It is hardly posxfe that ft fs “Aviation,” says Mr. Hamitton, part of the Roosevelt program to “is simply a matter of balance,” collect specimens from the streets and, he might add, “knowing how ef Cairo for the Smithsonian Insti-| to avoid sudden stops.” tate. | eee Wrestlers who swindle individ It would be showing rare pre*| ysis take chances; those who swin- ence. of mind on Mr. Ballinger’s! die communities play safe aud get part if he were to accept promotion | tne big money as consul general to the North pena IN Pole. | At this, stage of the springtime} the middieaged man’s thoughts | When Philadelphia finally does: lightly turn to hand-raised garden wake up, what an awful headache? truck, WHAT SORT OF GALOOTS ARE THESE MEN OF NEW YORK AND CHICAGO?

Seattle, Wash ~——ELSEN CRAIG Si aeeeaiacettiaatid AS A I FIGURES SHOW HOW GILL WAS ELECTED BY GEORGE F. COTTERILL. Chapter 1. On February Sth, 1910, Hiram ©. Gli received, at the primary election, 3.677 plurality over A. V. Bouillon tm the #tret, Fourth, Fifth and Sixth wards combined. Inasmuch as he received only 2.497 plurality im the entire city on that day, it I» apparent that the vote of these four central, water front, lodging-house, saloon-district wards overcame the vote in the ten residence wards combined by a margin of 240 votes. By this support, the charactor of which speaks for itself, Hiram C. Gil became the republican nominees for mayor. Chapter Ii. On March Sth, 1910, Hiram ©.

Mr. OM) fell 6,000 votes behind his party ticket In the residence wards of ofty. By the volee aad votes of the four wards which are controlled and influenced by the dangerous, corrupting and evi! {nfluences of Seattle, Hiram C.
