For Boyd and Against Lotteries.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-The Supreme
Court to-day rendered its decision in the
case of Boyd against Thayer, involving
the governorship of Nebraska, in favor of
Boyd. The opinion is practically the
same as that outlined in the synopsis pre-
maturely published.
The court also decided the case of the
Louisiana Lottery Company, involving
the right of newspapers to publish lottery
advertisements and circulate through the
mails, against the lottery company. The
decision gives the postal authorities poll ce
power over the mails, and virtually sus-
tains the anti lottery law in its entirety.

THEIR OPINION OF M'GRAW.

Elsewhere in this issue viii be found .
number of interviews with old settlers
and others, who have known Hon.
John H. McGraw for many years.
The unanimity and earnestness with
which they deny the insinuations made
against him, and bear testimony to
his high character and honorable career,
speak volumes in his favor. 1t is safe to
say that there is not q man OF good char
acter and good standing in the community,
who has known Mr.. McGraw from the
time he arrived in Seattle, who does not
know him to be an honest and honorable
and upright man.
In connection with these interviews
attention is called to an editorial which
appeared in the Press Times of yesterday,
and is republished in this issue. It has
reference to the charges made against
Mr.. McGraw before he left Maine, and
calls attention TO the fact that before he
was permitted to pass through bank
ruptcy it was necessary for his creditors,
one and all, to make it known that
they were satisfied that the failure was an
honest one. and was free from fraud. In
this fact alone is found sufficient refuta-
ton of the charges which have been
brought against Mr.. McGraw in the hope
Of breaking the crushing force Of the dis
closures concerning the past of MI.
Snively.
The Seattle post-intelligencer. [volume] (Seattle, Wash. Terr. [Wash.]) 1888-1914, 1892-10-26

People who know Mr. McGraw but
slightly, or do not know him at all. some
times express surprise at the enthusiastic
admiration and answering devotion
shown for him by those who are proud to
call themselves his friends and supporters.
It'll not difficult, however, to explain
this feeling of intense loyalty which per-
vades Mr.. McGraw's friends. 1t is because
Mr.. McGraw has always been ready to help
any who are in distress; because his pocket
book has always been open to those who
needed assistance; because he has always
had warm grasp of the hand and q
CHEEKY word for every struggling young
man; because he has always been ready to
put on his hat and leave his office to do Q
service for friend; because he has
studied the welfare of others equally
with that of himself.
When man year after year fills his life
with little acts of kindness toward others,
drops word Of cheer and encouragement
here and'there. proves in every way his
loyalty to his friends, it is not surpris-
ing that when his hour of trial comes q
host of friends rise up to stand by him and
stay with him no matter what may come.
Such men always find friends and sup
porters where they least expect them.

RIsPECT FOR MRS. HARRIsG !.

The people Of the United States regard
less Of party, creed or race sympathize
with President Harrison in his present
deep affection. They sorrow with him in
his sorrow and lose sight of the statesman
and the president in the bereaved husband
whose aniuish calls for nations SYM
patty.
Era. Harrison was a true and faithful
wife and a loving mother. Though she
was domestic IN her tastes and cared little
for pomp and display, she filled with
sweet dignity the position TO which her
husbands honors called her. She early
won and always retained the respect and
admiration of the people.
As a mark of respect 10 Mrs. Harrison,
the Republican state central committee of
Washington recommends that all political
demonstrations within this state be sus-
pended Friday, October %, the day Of her
funeral. This request will doubtlessly be
generously complied with, for even in the
midst of a heated political battle the con-
testants will willingly pause TO show their
sympathy with sorrow and pay their
tribute to departed worth.

STILL AT 1T.

The Seattle Telegraph was even more vio-
lent than usual yesterday. and continued
its unreasoning and unsupported abuse of
Mr.. McGraw and other prominent Repub-
licans. The effrontery of Mr.. Collins and
Mr.. Sander, who avow responsibility for
this personal warfare, and who manage
the Seattle end of the fight against Seattle,
is beyond comprehension.
After having denounced McGraw day
after day in the most violent language,
they throw up their hands and whine
about mud singing and drawing perso-
nality into politics because the Posr-
INTELLIe ENcER exposed some very serious
flaws in the record of Mr.. Snively and
pointed out some excellent reasons why
he should not be elected governor.
Mr.. Collins and Mr.. Sander are forced
into some queer corners in their fight
against Seattle.

SEATTLE. Wednesday. OCT. %


There are still to be found Democrats
who loudly deplore the fact that the Lake
Washington canal is in politics, and as
loudly blame the Republican party for
putting it there. If such Democrats would
piause and give moment to thought and
reason, they could not but see that it is
their party, and their party alone. which
has put the canal in politics
Resoirod That we recognize the Importance To
our people of the improvement Of our rivers and
harbors. and that We especially commend as
worthy OF the attention OF congress, the Column
bta river, the harbor5 OF the Pacific coast and of
Puge. sound aud Snip canal connecting Puget
sound with Lake Washington; that we condemn
the action OF the Democratic mouse of repre-
sentatiyes in relusin: nh appropriation for the
openin g of the Columbia river and the Lake
Washington ship canal and that We most heart
lily approce the course OF Senators Allen and
Squire and Representative Wilson I'm their ad.
vocacy OF those measures: that We are heartily
In favor of SPECIFY opening to settlement of
the Puyaiiup and other Indian ressr vatious
within this state.
Such Is the plank adopted on the subject
Of public improvements by the Republican
state convention. Is the Columbia river
In politics? Are the harbors of the Pacific
coast ami Puget sound in politics? Is the
Pupaliup reservation in politics? Is any
one of all The Improvements mentioned in
that plank in politics, save, only, the Lake
Washington canal? And yet the Repub-
lican party mentions the canal only as it
mentions all the others. What then sep
arated the canal from the others and made
1t alone political issue? 1t was this:
We strongly condemn the course OF Senators
Allen and Squire In advocating appropriations
for the LAKE Washington ship canal, to the ex-
ciuson of needed appropriations for the neces-
sary improvements of our rivers aud harbors
Such is the plank adopted by the Demo-
cratic state convention. That is the
plank, dictated as it was in spirit Of un-
reasoning hostility to King county and
King county's interests. which brought
the canal into politics.
1t Is the Democracy and not the Repub-
lican party which is to be blamed. or
thanked. for making the Lake Washing
ton canal political issue.
