For the two-year term, the con- test is between two satisfactory candidates, Judge Walter W. French of Kitsap county and Judge Tolman of Spokane. In King county, The Star betieves that Thomas P. Revelle, whose career in the interests of public good has extended over a long period of years, would be a-distinct addition to the superior court. There are two superior court judges to be elected. Revelle is clearly entitled to one of these places. Verboten will be an often used word at the peace conference, and it will be used against German mili- tarism, greed and rulers. Departed Glories “For Sale—One fmety upholstered family carriage. Would make good We caught this in a recent reading of the want ads. Want ad columns, like the English “Agony” briefs, provide much raw material for the humorist and phil- osopher, for here the wants and don’t wants of a city are tersely, coldly and shamelessly told. One family carriage, probably upholstered in real, hand buffed leather. With piano polished, hardwood body, steel springs, gracefully curving shafts, leather top, a bit of brass here and of nickel there; a work of art, for the town bank- er’s wife to flaunt herself in, behind the big bays, with Pompey, the ante-bellum coachman, up on the box in front. All this vehicular glory going for a song; aye for the first brief bar or two of the tune; and going, to be con- verted into a trailer. To have its high proudness hitched behind a snorting flivver. To be twisted and yanked at most unseemly speed over thruts and humps and wayside stones. To carry fertilizer, and baWling calves, and swine, and chickens, in the full bloom of the autumnal moult. To sway and weave and jounce at the urge of this oil- breathing, gas-inhaling, dust-kicking devil ahead; and that’s the fate of all this upholstered and carved and polished ‘ur. Tough luck, old carriage, tough luck; better to have with the ancient team of bays to the bone yard and ground to dust to enrich the mellow earth, than to return to the highways where once you lorded it, and to return as a mere incidental appendage, yanked and shunted) and whipped about by a greasy tin can with a bang inside. That Captain Schweiger, Lusitania sinker, who has | been missing for a year, no doubt is registered at Hotel De Hades, where more of his submarine crew belongs. Deathbed Repentance One of the things Germany was accused of for years before this war began was her remarkable commercial practice of dumping goods in foreign markets to steal trade and ruin business of competitors. By doing this she also ae down high wage and working conditions in those coun- es. Germany now offers to discontinue this, if only the other nations will stop their march on Berlin and agree to peace terms. From the Munich “Nachrichten” we quote: The “dumping” method, which consisted in selling at high prices at home, to enable us to play the cheap Jack abroad, has been too long followed. It is an unclean form of competition, which must come to an end, but before it can cease it must be publicly disowned and branded as a wrong and as a piece of dis- honorable dealing. Of course, it is a long way from Munich to Berlin,| and Bavaria isn’t in Prussia, but this is an indication that reason is beginning to shed its light beyond the Rhine. The! harder we pound at that German line in France and the more dents we make in it the quicker Germany will come across with more proffers to clean her hands, commercially and piherwise. a is is in the nature of a deathbed repentance the Huns are making, but too often a deathbed fepentunce is no repentance at all when the patient gets well. | It is treason to waste food. Thrift Stamps will help keep the Hun on the run. Look up the family tree of every war rumor coming your way, and if you spot a Hun bury it deep. A French military expert estimates that up to date | 1,600,000 Germans have been killed. Gott’s ujll be done! OUR OWN WAR DISPATCHES By Jewin L.
