WASHINGTON GETS A HAIRCUT
'I his great state of Washington,
alter many years of sartorial inat
tention. daring which its hair has
grown peyond the length that de"
cency dictates, is now seated in the
barber's chair at Olympia, with
every prospect that it will emerge
sometime next month mush im
proved in appearance. Clipping
closely and artistically, the state
barber is making a thorough job of
it and it looks as though hirsute
trimmings enough would be swept
up to stuff several pillows of prod
igious s:«e. After a ten-year jam
boree of (Teak legislation ul <
kinds, we are getting oown to red
blooded facts, and have discarded,
let us hope forever, the namby
pumby, milk-and-water, white-cor
puscled line of legislation to which
we were introduced when public
sentiment swung to extremes in
condemnation of the earlier ravages
of big capitsl
When the senate passes a brl
legalizing ten round boxing
matches, we may be sure that red
blooded humanity is again at the
helm. During the war we were
oompeHed to pay instructors to
teach our boys the manly art.
Since then a small minority of the
people has been yawping for the
elimination of such unladylike ex
ercises and inviting us back to
tiddledy-winks and ping-pong.
We hope tha* the measure will be
concurred in by the House and we
also hope that the horse-racing bill
will “get by." Then, we may see a
state to compare with that which
1 we loved years ago, when manly
[men were the rule and short-haired
[women the exception.
We sigh for another breath of the
|We»t, the ozone that in earlier days
spelled freedom and live-and-let
llve. We are tiyed to death of in
terference with our pleasures, few
bnough in this life anyway, sick of
[he meddlesome busy bodies who
vould regulate every other man’s
business but their own. It itas
sn our own fault that we have
sen so cursed, and it will be our
Lult again if we fail to organize the
roadminded spirit of the state to
lie end that petty, narrow-minded,
leddllng nobodies may never again
permitted to legislate on our
khalf. Now our hair has been cut,
us keep it decently short for all
ie,—•Mining Truth.
