THE SENATORIAL CONTEST.

The time is near at hand when the
senatorial contest in this state will be
settled. The Legislature will convene on
the 9th of next month, when the scene
of this interesting controversy will be
shifted to Olympia. The friends of the
various candidates are doing all they
can to secure pledges from the various
members of the legislature. Thus far
all efforts to secure the preicrment of
favorites has been carried on with fair
ness, This is to be expected, judging
from the high standing of the leading
aspirants for senatorial honors. Any
attempt to belittle the standing and
qualities OF any candidate would be dis
astrous to those attempting to gain polit.
ical strength by such low methods of
warfare. Thus far popular prcierments
seem to center toward the candidates
from the four largest cities in the state.
Seattle presents the names of Watson c.
Squires and j. c. Haines; Tacoma tina,
of Walter j. Thompson and General
Sprague; Walla Walla John b. Allen
and Thomas III. Brents, and Spokane
Falls S. C. Hyde and Judge Turner.
Concessions will have to be made on the
part of many of these candidates in
favor of the men and towns developing
the most strength. The members of the
legislature are independent and conser-
vative men, who will thoroughly con-
fider the ability and fitness of the re.
spcctive candidates and the demands of
the localities claiming special consider
alton.
In urging the selection Of a senator
from Spokane county, the advisablity
of taking candidate from the CONNER
cial center of Eastern Washington is not
alone a deciding feature in the impend-
ing contest. The ability and fitness of
her candidates overshadow the mere
claim of locality. II is conceded by a
majority of the republicans, especially
of Eastern Washington, that her candi-
dates possess all the qualities neces-
sary to protect and advance the interests
of our state in the national senate. They
are energetic and jealous men, convers-
ant with the needs of Washington, and
with the measures which affect the well
fare of the nation. The selection of one
of the candidates of this county con-
versant with agricultural, manufacture
ing and mining interests which center
at Spokane Falls would be satisfactory
to the people of Eastern Washington.

CLEVELAND AND HILL.

Americans, after all, are n nation o
nconsistent people. We arouse the am
ation of our boys by pointing out the
Me time assert that u desire to occupy
,hc chair once filled by Washington and
Lincoln Is an honorable ambition. Bu'
bnce 1t becomes plain that II politician
Of note has set his eye upon this high Of
Ace, he falls in public esteem. Seldom
hayo two men made more notorious bids
for the nomination than those now pre-
sentcd by Grover Cleveland and DAVID
Hill. So plain has this rivalry grown
that 1t is aifording amusement and en-
tertainment for the entire country. Hill
and Cleveland are digging political
graves for each other at a furious rate,
and are brewing contentious that will
defeat either should he be nominated by
the democratic national convention, an
event which now seems improbable
The strange feature of the situation is
the fact that neither of these willy politi-
eians is able to grasp situation that is
so plain to the average voter. They will
70 on "kniting' each other to the politi-
cal death, and then if dark horse come
out OF the field and win the nomination
ono or both of them will sulk in his tent
and let the battle 60 to the republicans.
Hill is political shyster with all
the audacity of James G. Blaine and
none'of his magnetic ability. He has
virtually carried the war into Africa
for his recent tour ofthe South was moth
ing but succession of bids for. the
Southern vote of the democratic national
convention. He realizes very clearly
that he can accomplish nothing unless
he can win over democracy's stronghold
The South and New York can dominate
the democratic party, but that day has
passed when such a combination could
control the Union. The admission of
fur new states puts a quietus upon
that alliance.
Governor Hill audacity, it appears, has
led him into impoliuc utterances. AT
Nashville, as an instance, he made direcl
slap at Grover Cleveland that, since he
left, has created no end of comment
}mong the trends of the late president
md much criticism. In referring to the
6outh he said: 81 am not thoroughly
posted in facts and figures as to your
wealth and population; l do not carry
an encyclopedia with me, but | know
what / have seen, and that is you have
great country" Grover Cleveland,
1t will be recalled, in his tour oi
the West made during his incumbency
Of the presidential office, carried an en-.
cyclopedia in his private car, and shot
great chunks from it at the people of the
numerous towns at which demonstra.
tions were made. The result, in some
cases, was highly ludicrous and EN-
barrassing to the speaker. The state
ments made were not of recent compila-
ton, and the booming Western towns
had grown away from them for years
The effect can be easily imagined by res
idcnts of Spokane Falls. 1t was entirely
the reverse of that intended, and the
people went home angry and out o
patience with president who was no
competent TO grasp the great change.
that were being made in his own conn
try.
The Nashville affair says the dispatch
above mentioned, has raised somewhat
of Il tempest, and the governor has beer
severely criticised by many.
