They were fighting for that humane measure the double platoon. Even their wives and sweethearts were drawn into the campaign, so intense was it. Notably, the wife of Captain Ebbinghouse of the Third ave. and Pine st. station, took an active part in it. The Dale group in politics, the chamber’s taxation bureau, and their ilk, placing the dollar above human- ity, fought against the double platoon. Men like Councilmen Erickson and Hesketh fought for it. But—oh, well, you’ve heard that song called “Gratitude.” So do not be surprised at this letter sent to Se- attle firemen: “Dear friend: I will consider it a personal favor if you will vote for either Mr. Dale or Mr. Cal- houn—or for both. “MRS. EBBINGHOUSE.” Fortunately, Seattle firemen resent this, and have so informed The Star. They are not going to turn down men who stood for them—Erickson, Hes- keth, Lane—for men who, like Dale and Calhoun, failed to give them needed aid. rood these "gl gale in our Second Avenue front if you want to see | CLARENCE REAMES Come up to the Suit Section and “take-a-hold” of them, see what good, honest worsteds they are made of—see how well they are tailored.
