The King county members will be
watched with critical eyes by the voters
during the coming session of the legisla-
ture, and the men who fall by the way
side in their duty to their constituents
will perhaps live 10 see their mistake. It
Is apparent TO the casual observer that
the old gang Will make a determined. and
stubborn fight to elect John b. Allen.
Nearly every business man in the city and
every Republican farmer whom We have
talked to are outspoken in denunciation
of the scheme to rekindie the fires which
should have been quenehed when the last
legislature ceased TO exist. If the Repub-
lican party is to maintain its ascendancy
the rule or ruin faction must take a back
seat and let the people manage their own
affairs without dictation. We would have
supposed that the las. election was an OBJ
ject lessen worthy of careful study at

There lis said to be general speculative
craze at the national capital. II seems
TO have taken a start during the famous
sugar legislation last summer. When Il
year ago there were only five or six
brokers dealing in railway and other
speculative stocks. there are now at least
a score and they are multiplying rapidly.
A correspondent notes that the queer
and rather significant thing about the
craze is that 1t is almost entirely con-
fined TO sugar stock. Employees about
the capitol. confidential secretaries to
senator's. committee clerks and ohers are
prominent gamblers in stock. The
treasury department has caught the in
lection and Secretary Carlisle is quoted
as saying that II tiere was any way
