W. H. WHITE
Was introduced and said: am here
to face my fellow citizens, and tell
them that | stand in favor Of Law and
order. When am afraid to do this I'll
move away.
TO the saloon men of Seattle would
say, if you are leRitimatelv and lawfully
pursuing your business be content, and
keep cut of this fight. For "whom the
gods would destroy thew first make
mad" aud if you unite with such men
as Richard Pritchard and Jimmy Smith
il won't be long before you'll have to 20
to Victoria to get drink.
Who are the prime movers in this
Business Mems movement Why, it's
s. Baxter, a wholesale liquor dealer,
who sells to these lava bed dealers by
the jug, and W. A. Jennings. They
fixed up ticket in the Second Ward
with Jones' name on it, and got long
list of signatures, and then removed
Jones' name and put in its place
that of Joe Mcknight. Judge

and proprietor of faro bank. Brother
Haines was there. but when Strive fail

and want it bought from the Spring

John Leary, as Mayer, to sign con-
tract with John Leary, President OF the
Spring Hill Water Company. for such
supply.
Notwithstanding Mr.. Strive, one of
the best lawyers in the Territory, has

through Government land to Judge
Burke's property, and, as the taxes are
unpaid, the city finds out when il Ia too
late that it cannot sell Government land
for street grade taxes. Wa Chong holds
$4,000 worth of jackson street scrip,
and an attempt is being made to saddle
this amount off on to you and me and
other taxpayers. There is $S7 900 worth
of scrip out, aud a Large share of it is
held by the Puget Sound Bank,
of whioA the Mcknight brothers
are stockholders, and Joe McNaught's
anxiety to get into the Council is to
have this scrip paid by the city. instead
of those whose property should be held
for it. James Mcknight has given a
written opinion that the citizens must
pay it. Many good lawyers differ with
him, however. on this matter.
tell you these facts tonight, because
| 60 east of the mountains tomorrow,
and want you to spread them far and
wide. Judge Jacobs called your at
tsntion to a low lived article in the
Chronicle. Now, / want to call the
attention of the laboring men to An
equally insulting. scurrilous and abu-
sive article IN toniRht's Herald. A man
who would pen such an article Is very
low ind, ed, and there is not a laboring
man in Seattle who would not spit upon
such an article and then spit upon Its
writer. No man but blackgaard
would pen sueh sentiments, and no
paper of standing or responsibility
would publish them.
One word about the Police Court. I
say, and challenge contradiction, that
there never was such rotten nest any
where ON the face of Gods footstool as
the Police Court of the city Of Seattle.
I make the charge, and defy JuSolce
Cam or Mr.. Woolery to deny It.
After some further remarks regard
ing the Police Court. Mr.. White ex-
planned his connection with the team
sters' meeting. IF had a vote" said
Mr.. White, I'D vote the Law and order
ticket straight. Can you point out
a man who has been indicted
for any crime +? Can you point out
any lava bed ranger, any gambler,
or any keeper of q house of i'll
fame. or any hoodlum who is not sup
porting the business mems ticket. He
then reviewed the nominees of the Law
and order ticket, and showed that they
were nearly all prosperous, honest, con-
sentative business men.
GEORGE KINNEAR
Was introduced. and made a speech, but
the lateness OF the hour preclndes an ex-
tended review. IL elected, he promised
TO see that the laws are respected and
observed.
Judge Jacobs announced that mas
meeting will be held in she STANDARD
Theater soon, and a grand rally held al
the apple orchard on Saturday evening
