Mr. Higbee, A-1 Fictionist 3 Whatever else may be said about the candidacy of | Richard V. Higbee, aspirant for a seat on the port com- mission, this, at least, is true: He is going the extremest hater of the Port of Seattle one better in some of his Campaign attacks against the municipal unit with which "hie is seeking official connection. In a signed pamphlet Higbee makes these assertions: “Mismanagement of the Port of § tle’s business has » Brought the port properties to the brink of insolvency and they have only been saved fram a ership by the commission's power to gouge the taxpayers.” That, of course, as any informed citizen knows, is plain falsehood. The port’s business has not been mismanaged. The port never has been in a bad business condition. The taxpayers never have been gouged. At present they are paying 1 mill only toward port costs. Then Higbee adds: “Creosoted piling has an average life of ten years. Two of the port district terminal docks Must have new piling immediately; during the next few be spent for renewals. No- ion's reports is it shown that any intelligent effort has been made to prevent these 4 from falling down when old age claims the de- ‘erepit piling.” The facts are that creosoted piling has an average life of to 30 years. None of the port terminals need new piling i many years to come—15 years at least. The $2,000,000 renewal figure is plain BUNK.

Alabama’s Sin-Money | Speaking of the investigation of the murder of young bert in that Florida convict camp, the Birmingham editor says: "Florida will probably wipe out convict leasing as a ult. She abolished state leasing in 1919, but allowed ities to continue it. When Florida stopped state leas- , Alabama was left as the only state in the Union still icing it. Action was taken to end it—and Gov. | randon, as the first official proceedings of his admin- ‘istration, took steps to continue it. “Why? “Because Alabama is too poor to stop slavery—ALA- AMA IS TOO POOR TO GET ALONG WITHOUT IER SIN-MONEY! “And so, while the nation shudders and gasps at the ‘ase of Martin Talbert, Alabama continues to lease her ‘convicts—Alabam alone of all the states. And we preach education and religion and missions and saving while all the time this thing exists in our midst id we, the citizens of Alabama, profit by it. _ “This is a message for the church people of Birming- ham, and for the leaders of the Sunday school convention o session here.

But if you come this way again You'll find my door is widely swinging And you may hear a joyous strain That Song is sweetly singing. Three things in a shave Speed, comfort, uniformity.
