TACOMA. June s3--Ispecial. There has
been desperate Eight vaged to have the
Seattle land Office transferred 10 Everett.
II National Committeeman Wallace had
not stepped in ara stood out for Mcdonald,
Of Seattle. tor ths position OF receiver Of
thu land Office, /; might have already been
settled in favor Of Everett. Dir. Wallace
will not admit hat he did step in. but
nevertheless the evidence indicates 1t.
The fight was a curious one. The sena-
torial complimentary coquetting had some
thing TO do with IL. Indeed. tho root OF
ali the evils In ttss Democratic body polite
seems TO be the late complimentary vote
for United STATES senator. For . long
time previous to ths meeting OF the legis-
lature Senator EcManus. III Everett. was
very chummy wisa Ex-Governor Church.
But when il csms 10 coquetting on the
senatorial vote Mc. McNanus voted for
Senator McCloeky. and grievously dis
pleased Mr.. Church. About that time Mr..
NcMAuus took @ drop a. . candidate for
United States marshal. But IL IL said it
Was not because as loved Mr. Church less
but Everett mere, that caused him to
desert tho issan whom Cleveland,
according to toe d. o. Finch memo
Sandum. considered an intimate friend
senator McClosky. It 10 now explained,
controlled in part the location Of the
rarmers' wheat siavator, and in tho hope
of making him more friendly to Everett.
Mr.. McManus voted for him. As il turned
out. Tacoma gos the elevator, and Mr.. Nc
Manus gave up bis chances for the mar
shaiship. Just what Church had to do
with this, IL COR lecture. But McManus
satisfied himself by saying that he gave
up his prospects tor tho marshalship in
order 10 leave N;f. Irwin. of his town, free
TO he appointed Indian inspector. But
like most men DO "monkcyed" with, or
was championei by men who had any
thing to do Wits that complimentary vote
ready to be appointed when, - the Posr-
IsrELLtGEScER steted several weeks ago,
the prompter .. Washington City did not
give the cue, anal Mr.. Irwin had to dress
for another scene. About the time that
Irwin went iato the green room Of
the political asage Mr.. McManus
and his fricnas put him forward Wig
orously for shs position of receiver
OF the Seattle lss,i's Office. with the under
standing that tho Office DO removed 10
Everett once irwin was In possession.
The proposition 10 make the change from
Seattle 10 Everett went right through al.
the necessary se.! tape departments and
actually turned gp on the presidents desk
one morning. and about this time the
national committeeman was called in, and
the evidence sn,ticates that he made a
stand for Frank 4. Mcdonald. OF Seattle.
This appointment still hangs fire. Why?
some say there IL an obscure but mighty
parsonage who - allowed to revise Ma
tonai Committeeman Wailace's political
proofs. No f.std TilIicum admits tia,
any man but ltash {, Wallace is supreme.
Ever since county Assessor Doueher,v
