vas stated that the Democrats were in
desperate straits and would hold a con-

they should naxe fight or stay entirely
out Of the campaign by no. nominating

To be- assured Of even one otfice. and if va
cancy were left on the Popnlist ticket they
would Iili IL with Democrat and endorse
Hfnckley. Hart and Wilson, although it
was known the Democrats would not en-
dorse Piper. Some member of the CON-
rnittee called attention 20 u resolution
which had previously been passed, ex-
pressing determination not 20 fuse with
anybody. but the retort was that il was
not fusion ii the Democrats endorsed
part of the ticket. The meeting was in
the nature of love feast and frequent
references we're made TO the fact that the
ehssm which had separated two factions
Of the party had at last been bridged, and
all should avoid wrecking the bridge.
The Young Mems Republican Club of
the state university Is one of the new
organisations connected with that institu-
ton. Although only recently organized,
1t has large membership. about seventy
five names being enrolled. Several meet
ings have been held, and arrangements are
about completed for permanent organ
Ization. At the last meeting committee
OF seven, consisting OF T.. r. Dearborn.
II. c. ostrom. X. A. Sprague. ID. A. Ford,
i. NJ. Anderson, Charles Aiburty and s. J.
Miller, was appointed TO draft constitu-
ton and bylaws, and as soon as the COM
mittee has COMPLETED its labors and the
work. accepted the club will commence
active operations. Energetic young men
hare the management of the club, and its
future success is assured. While IL is the
intention of the club that as a body it
shall not engage IN any political demon
stration outside of the university, its MEM
bers viii always be really and willing To
assist in the Advancement of Republican
principles. The object of the club is to
incu!cate in the students desire for
the knowledge of economic questions,
and free and open discussion upon sub
jects pertaining 60 government Members
OF other party organizations will be in
yited, and open debates and discussions
will be engaged in. As soon as arrange.
ments can be perfected prominent spe akers
will be invited to deliver lectures upon
political subjects under the auspices OF the
club. Ii Is the intention to make this a
special feature. and the students of all
political faiths will be invited and made
welcome 10 these meetings. The club has
representative young men from almost
every county in the state on the member

state organization. A large mum Der of the
members are voters and enthusiastic
workers in the ranks Of the young Repub-
leans. The officers of the club are: Presi-
dent. john Ham. of Port Townsend: vice
president. ID. A. Ford. OF Snohomish; sec

The German Densokrat says of the mu-
nicipal league nominations: NO one
will go astray who bespeaks no prospect
of any results for the municipal league
in the election. The personality OF the
candidates is not such that they can in
any way impress the mass of the voters
and then the manner in which their
namination was brought about was too
much at variance with democratic rrin-
ciples and too unworthy of confidence to
he capable of awakening the sympathy of
the really independent voter for this So
