It is the freedom from the shackles of party slavery. It is the freedom which gives full and unlimited opportunity to judge men on their merits when they seek political office instead of allowing many of them to slip into office on the strength of the party label. Ward heelers, political tools of every kind, big and small, are against putting the county and state on the same nonpartisan basis as the city of Seattle and most every city in this state are now enjoying. We elect our councilmen, our mayor, and other officials without asking whether they are republicans, democrats or socialists. There is no more reason why a county coroner, state auditor, governor, or member of the legislature, should be elected as a republican or democrat than that he should be elected because he is a Baptist or an Episcopalian. THERE IS NO QUESTION AFFECTING COUNTY ADMINISTRA- TION OR STATE ADMINISTRATION THAT SHOULD BE DECIDED ON PARTISANSHIP. Opponents of nonpartisanship are hereby challenged to name one. The nonpartisanship bill has been filed. It is now awaiting action from Secretary of State Howell and Attorney General Tanner. It is up to them to act without delay. Will they do it? Or will they attempt to delay it so long that the petitions will not be distributed by election day. The state has its eye on them. In the meantime, let each independent voter, man or woman, get a whirlwind ca.npaign to secure 100,000 signatures or more to the mehip Chicago, French, bound from Bordeaux to New York, fire in No, 3 hold,” read the m “Expects arrive at Fayal today.” LONDON, Oct. 27.
