NOT TO BE FRIGHTENED.

Messrs. Rucker and Grosscup and other
SeattIe-haters in Everett are said to be at
tempting 20 make the people of that place
believe that vote for McGraw will be o
vote for the destruction of Everett. They
profess to fear that the construction OF
the Lake Washing on canal would be an
injury to Everett because 1t would be q
benefit to Seattle.
The energetic people of seattle's -four
ishing neighbor city will not be misled by
such folly. Everett is q fixture in this
state. 1t is there to stay. Its important
manufacturing industries will not be
removed to Seattle or any other city.
They are there and they will re-
main there, and they will be added to
from time to time, and it is the
sheeress folly to think that the prosperity
of Seattle can in any way injure Everett
or any other city on the Sound. The
people of Everett: are building city
and building it on broad foundations,
and they know too we'll how deeply these
foundations are laid to be fearful of the
future of their town.
We shall be much surprised If Seattle's
haters are able to frighten the people Of
Everett into the belief that McGraw's cleo
ton or the construction of the Lake Wash
ington canal would injure them in any
way.

TOO LATE.

The anti-Seattle organs are constantly
limiting Of possible revelations that might
be made concerning Hon. John H. Nc
Graw and other Republican candidates.
They have repeatedly been challenged to
bring forth any facts in their possession,
but have contented themselves with in.
nuendoes.
Nothing that is sprung upon the people
at this late day in the campaign. if indeed
anything could be sprung, should be given
the slightest credence. If any charge is to
be made against a candidate the public are
entitled to a full opportunity to investi-
gate it, and when they are denied this it is
prima fdcic evidence that the charge is
false and will not bear investigation.
Mr.. Snively has had ample time to re-
flute the charges brought against him. He
has utterly failed to do so. In fact, he
has practically confessed the truth of
everything that has been said. If those
charges had been withheld until now Mr..
snively might well have pleaded that he
had not an opportunity to be heard. He
can not make such q plea now, however,
for he was given every chance to clear
himself
Any charge sprung from this time on
may be set down as a campaign roorbach
which will not bear investigation.
