PoRr TOWNSEND. Oct. 7.-[Special. l.
Judge w. ii. Calkins, Of Tacoma, is in
this city today attending court. Relative
to the political situation IN Pierce county,
he said: THE Republicans of Pierce
county have nominated the strongest
legislative and county ticket ever placed
before the people of Tacoma and vicinity.
Every man on the ticket will be elected by
from 100 to 800 majority. and Pierce
county will present a united front to the
Democracy. There is a vast contrast In
the superiority of tho Republican nomi-
nees over the Democratic candidates
chosen yesterday at Tacoma. With one
possible exception the Democratic ticket is
weak and cannot possibly be successful
Regarding state issues am not informed
and am incompetent to express an opinion
relative to the political outlook. would
further say that I am rot in politics this
year. and outside of my own community
am not competent To pass judgment ON the
political situation"

The Outlook in the State.

TACOMA, Oct. 7.-ISpecial. l-Chairman
P. c. Sullivan, of the Republican state
committee. said today:
am confident this state will go Republican.
/ find no possible chance for Democratic in
creases The Republican ticket will come west
over the Cascade mountains with Q majority
which will run well up IN four figures. There
Is 10 prospect Whatever of any Democratic in
creases In Eastern Washington. In Whitman
county the Peoples party will make quite a
showing. That party will poll about II 0o0 votes
In the state That amount out OF $500 will
not cut much Of . figure The Republican
matorites q rule throughout tho state will
run higher than ut tho last state election, when
John l. Wilson was elected. ALI the indies
tons point that way. There will DO . hot fight
on the legislature. but the Republicans will GER
tainly have majority.
As q rule Democrats who gather here
from all corners Of the state, together with
local Democrats, fail to agree on the total
vote of the state. They begin with 1900
and run up to 10000. The bulk, however,
agree with Chairman Sullivan, viz: that
the total vote of the state will be about
$500, thus showing an increase of over
10000 since the last election. The Demo-
Gratis fail to pick out any localities where
increases in their strength can be reasona-
bly, expected. Like the Peoples party
manipulators. the Democrats claim they
will carry the state. This, the Peoples
party claims, without even party organ
ization in many localities. As for the
Democrats, the Peoples party managers
say they are not Sin it," that the fight is
simply between the Peoples party and
the Republican party. This claim is par

inent Democrats. too--who say the Peo-
pies party will poll 2O,000 votes.
