A little more two months ago, when he appeared before | the body AND MADE THE SAME KIND OF A ‘H, he was virtually jeered. S All his life, Mayor Hanson had given unstinted ef- fort in behalf of industrial and social justice. Yet a few “weeks before the election, cunning politicians so contrived as to make Hanson appear like another Gen. Otis. aa by the passion of heated politics, misled by some "of their leaders, befooled by a loud-mouthed perennial date, labor delegates and many in the rank and file wed Hanson’s record of 25 years’ loyalty to their “cause and branded him as an enemy of labor. Today the rank and file know that they were virtually betrayed. Hanson's rugged honesty stands out in the two onths that he has been mayor. He is today leading fight for the Skagit power site. The labor council with him. Councilmen Bob Hesketh and T. H. who spring from organized labor, have not agreed j hi mor with their own labor council. The same is F regarding the National District Telegraph company ise. Hanson and the labor council agree, but labor's councilmen do not agree. Hundreds of labor men, perhaps thousands, were de- tely given an erroneous impression about Hanson the election. Why? No man, truly honest at heart, _ Viewing Hanson's life record, could have branded him unfair to labor. Yet that was done. Why? To gratify onal vanities and ambitions, perhaps. Perhaps not. tever it was, those who were responsible for the cir- tion of the false rumors concerning Hanson before the ction, owe him today—owe him and the city of Seattle— an 4 a4 Hanson case ought not to pass merely with a rence to the past. It should serve us in the future. Demonstrating, as it does, that evil may come from dpicked politics” in the Labor council, as well as from Chamber of Commerce, let us again refer to the non- n bill, now being circulated. The Star has been a leader in the fight for non- ship. It championed this cause years ago, when of those who now claim pronounced enthusiasm for were not even in Seattle. Yet The Star cannot accept the nonpartisan bill now ed, because it is not really a nonpartisan bill. It a ens primary bill. It is a preferential elec- th It is several bills in one. It was gotten up by two three or four individuals WITHOUT CONSULTING H MEN LIKE THOMAS F. MURPHINE AND ‘RT.

Can it be possible that there is an absent minded coal man in this world?
