Cl.Iiam County Politics.

PoRr ANGELES, Oct 26-fSpecial. The
prospects for the success of the entire Re-
publican ticket ia Clallam county are get
ting brighter every day. r. C. Wilson,
Republican candidate for senator from
Clallam and Jefferson counties, returned
home today. He will have a handsome
majority in Clallam county. and reports
from Jefferson county are very encourage
ing also The Port Angeles Democratic
committee hired sorenead Republican
and issued .dodger" from the Democrat
Leader Office. which they are mailing
10 Jefferson county TO influence votes
there. The 'dodger" causes no other
comment among Republicans here than
rldicule for such transparent scheme,
and pity for the instructed energies ex-
pended In such a manner. 1t is a recog-
nixed fact mere that the Democratic candi-
date for senator will lose large number
of Democratic votes in this city by reason
of his unssvory record as councilman in
this city a. the time of the Buriingame
street settlement and the passage of the
electric light Job. His connection with
these Jobs has been the means of defeating
him for every office to which he has
aspirei since these frauds on the city were
psrnetrated
