RACING ON PUGET SOUND.
A Lively Whale Beaten by ! Steamboax
in N

A Lively Whale Bcnten by Steamboat
In q Long Race.
What was probably the most unique
race on record, says the Tacoma Led
ger, occurred on the waters of Puget
sound between Tacoma and Seattle
the other afternoon-namely,a race
between q whale and n steamboat.
Shortly after the Flyer passed Browns
point on her afternoon trip to Seattle,
q large shovel-nose whale was noticed
on her port bow, and, Us it was in
about the same position when the
Flyer came up on her previous trip, it
excited the curiosity of the captain,
who decided to stand OF his course to
get near view OF the monster of the
deep. Judge of his astonishment when
instead of overhauling the whale the
whale drew away from the boat. By
this time it had got noised about
among the passengers that it was the
intention of the officers OF the boat to
ovcrtalzc the whale if it was possible
for wood, steel and steam to do so.
Word was sent to the engine room,
and in n few moments it was plainly
noticeable that the crack boat of the
Pacific had got an extra move on her
Sell, and in about five minutes it was
clear she was gaining on the whale.
About one mile south of Robinson's
point the whaleput on an extra squirt
of speed and for minute or SO gained
a little on the boat, but it evidently
was only a squirt, for the boat
again gained. When Robinsons
point was reached the whale took
the inside course and it was feared
1T would run ashore and so end the
race. To prevent this the Flyer kept
off shore SO Us to allow it plenty of sea
room in rounding the point. by rea-
son of ticking the outside course after
the point was rounded the whale had
gained considerably on the boat, but it
was evident from the cratic movements
'of the leviathan that it was fast be-
coming tired out, and that it would be
only a matter of a few miles more
when the monster would have to ac-
knowledge defeat. About half a mile
from Pulley point the whale and boat
were side by side, and the excitement
among the passengers was intense,
women and children Joining in the
wild and vigorous yelling. Bets which
at the beginning of the race were of
1SA GU Unt1' Iile Whdle "Oulo 90 up Cne
boat were all withdrawn, and no one
could be found who would risk ten
cents on his whaleship. When Pulley
point was passed the boat was ahead
fully six lengths, and five minutes
after passing tho point the greatest
race on record was ended. The man
had constructed to sail Oh top of tho
water a boat that could outrun the
swiftest denizcn of the deep.
|, A passenger who came upon boat
that crossed the Flyers track reported
seeing dead whale near Pulley point.
Whether or not this was the remains
OF the whale that had raced the Flyer
has not yet been verified, but it is
quite probable that the race the boat
gave it may have proved fatal

A BOOM FOR SWEET.

What man in this town is most anxious
that Mr.. Ingraham should be elected
Mayor? George i. SWEET. Why is Mr..
SWEET SO much Interested? First be-
cause he hopes to be reappointed city
marshal, second because he thinks Ingra-
hams reelection will help him get the
post Office. The fact is the power be-
hind the Ingraham throne has been
George L. SWEET, and it is not exagger-
alton to say that he has been much more
potent than the throne itself.
All the political moves of Ingra-
hams administration have been dictated
by Swett and most of them have been with
an eye single to the benefit of SWEET.
The policy of the administration toward
the liquor shops, the practice of discharg-
ing offenders without trial which has
prevailed to greater extent than ever
before the past year, were adopted by
SWEET as means of helping him to the
nomination to the sheriff's Office. The
hoodlum element of the Democratic
party was thus solidified in behalf of his
candidacy, and the means afforded him
of beating down his rivals for the Office.
Ths policy of practically free rum at
the agency was very likely dictated by
SWEET. At any rate before his election
Ingraham publicly expressed opposition
to it and protested an intention to re-
strict the sales there more than
ever before. No man in the
Democratic party was SO active
so politically active-on election day as
this same Mr.. SWEET He was inside the
rail in four wards without a sufficient
excuse. When the polls closed
in Ward 3 he was inside the rail
and it was undoubtedly his presence
there that nerved the warden to
ccntemptuously dismiss the Republi-
can protest and to refuse the Re-
publicans the right to watch the count.
Yet while politically active he was
negligent of his proper duties Meth
CT he uor the police under his control
made any effort to stop the drinking in
the street commissioner room or to
clear out of the corridors the drunken
men who were collected there and whose
presence constituted an affront to all de-
cent citizens. His whole conduct on
election day proved he had deep per-
sonal as well as political interest in the
result of that election.
That interest still continues undated
He is the most active Democrat in the
city at the present time, and if the truth
could be known, it would appear that no
one had more to do with inducing
The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1893-04-13

Mr.. Ingraham to reverse his decision not
to be candidate than he. He realizes
that the scandal of the first election has
unfavorably prejudiced his chances OF
getting the Federal office he is after, and
his only hope of removing the incubus
that now rests upon him is by re-electlng
Mayor Ingraham and then pointing 10
the result as vindication of himself.
With Ingraham reelected he can say TO
the office brokerage syndicate with a
good show of reason that he has been en-
dorsed by the whole Democratic party
and by majority of the voters OF this
city, He will then be altogether the big
gest man in the party here and there will
be no danger that the syndicate will
overlook him.
SWEET and the post office is the real
issue in the election as far as the Demo
cratic side of it is concerned. A vote to
make Ingraham Mayor is vote for Mr..
SWEET for postmaster.
