cratic leaders here offered the nomination

The next raost available ean1lssse
vas J. T. Ronald, bit be said
frankly that be did not care for the
nomination. Of course, he YVES not
averse 20 accepting honors and getting
what glory be co1id; but ;hs fact was tisaE
he had no money 70 spare for carnpas gfl.
He told his friends that he shonld much
Prefer 20 practice Law for two or three
years yet. and then he would be IN better
trim financially for going into politics.
The Democracy Of the city was in desps:-

on the inside say that ne did
not give his final assen. TO the plan Until
lie was promised substantial aid from
prominent Democrat east Of the noun

spokane. The story goes that the Demo
eratis central committee has already re-
ceiYea 81 100 as an earnest Of &r. Br0Ene's
interest 10 his canvass
It il well known that Mr.. Browne is
ambitious 10 sit in the United States

that legislature or wait Tor six years. For
there Is strong probability that even

Eauire's SUCCESSOR Democratic. some Dem
ocrat from the Puget sound country would
stand the best chance for the senatorsbip.
SIR. Browne does not care 10 wait SIX
years and 50 he viii do his best 70 secure
a Democratic majority IN the legislature

him more material aid than 3 Democratic
victory IN Seattle at the municipal election.
In the first place the moral or immoral
effect Of Democratic success in the
leading city Of the state. and 8 Republican

factor ia the state contest, and In the sec

He says he was unable to do any work.
and when the vessel reached Victoria,
where he had no legal remedy, the captain
paid him of and refused TO recognize him
as one Of the crew. No articles had been
signed for the voyage, so Fors had no al
tentative but to accept. He gave the fol-
lowing account Of the collision with the
steamer City OF Seattle and the voyage
generally:

oupicd the chair. aud before the minutes
had been approved discussion was
started. Qnite number of speakers par
tcipated, and a very free exchange Of
views took place, gith the result that an
agreement was reached, a.d when the
question was finally pat there was only
one dissenting voice. The chief point Of
difference was as 10 the method Of selec-
ton Of officers for the primary, and IL was
resolved that they be selected by the club
upon open nomination. Before the meet
ing adjourned it selected Z. Wiusor, g. L.
Manning and W. 5. Rowe To act as judges,

vision. W. y. Voight. W L. Durand and

lions modifying those Of tie previous

the present system and pledge the RcpuD-
licans Of the Sixth ward to support such
changes as will insure q more economical
form Of administration.
Mr. &. f. Fishback made forc.bo ad-
dress, during which he appealed eio-
quently To Republicans 10 stand by their
principles. He said that this was the time
when citizens go. together 70 talk over the
experience Of the pas. and determine upon
plans Tor the future. lie devoted consid-
cradle attention to the immunity OF gam
blers and lewd women, and declared It as
his opinion that they were evils which
could not he eliminated, but they could be
. controlled and checked. and the best way
% do that was TO impose penalties. This
would not only keep the evils in check.
but help TO reduce the taxes borne by law
abiding people.
Mr Fishback had not been speaking ff-
teen minutes when he had started storm
Of laughter and applause. which lasted
until be sat down. lie paid his respects
10 lunius Rochester. reminding his hear
ers that the gentleman had been the au-
thor 81 more amendments and details Of

rot merely 20 eject officers but TO stand by
them and counsel with them and
strengthen them in doing what Is right.
lie informed the meeting that a campaign
fund OF thousands Of dollars had been
brought into this state TO insure the carry
ing Of every election likely 70 help in
swinging the state for the Democratic
presidential nominee.
Mr.. ;. N. sh.pley also spoke at some
length. explaining the iufamy OF the
charges made by Democratic speakers
against the present administration, par
t'cu.srty directing his speech to a reyisw
q the difficulties which the council had To
contend with and the debt it had found
already incurred, and for which provision
was absolutely necessary. He was invited
by resolution TO address the club again.
