A petition was being circulated In the

members Of the legislature asking them
TO support John L. Wilson for the sem
ate. Wilson's case is evidently getting

Ankeny has many friends throughout
the state among the business men, pro-
fessional men and farmers. Mr.. Ankeny
during the thirty years he has lived in
Washington seems not to have made an
enemy. He has been much maligned as
man OF small capacity, and Wilson has
been particularly industrious in circu-
lating the impression that the campaign

Statesman
Walla Walla county Is intensely de-
sirous of having Walla Walla man
elected to the senate. and as most MEM
bers of the legislature will so to Olympia
unpledged, determined TO support the
strongest man. it behooves the repre-
sentatives OF this county To waste no
time nor endanger our chances by the
casting OF complimentary votes. Mr..
Ankeny Is the candidate Of Walia Wai.a
county and undoubtedly the strongest
man Eastern Washington presents. They
would be dereiict in their duty and false
TO their home interests If they detracted
rather than added to that strength. The
casting OF complimentary vote for Mr..
Allen would certainly effect no beneficial
results and might be fataL-WaIla walla

The fact that Spokane already has one
of the two representatives win so a long
way to defeat John l. Wilson'S senator
ial aspirations. The walh walia peo-
pie may with some show OF justice claim
the next senator; so also the southwest
ern part or the state. We think. how
ever. the matter will be settled without
reference to these claims. King county is
etili dominant In the affairs of the Repub-
lican party, and will no doubt decide the
senatorial question TO suit her own inter
ests. In two years there will be another
senator to elect. and the man must be
Gov. McGraw. from King county. To
make sure OF this the King county pso-
pie win probably so into a combination
with the candidate outside OF Spokane
who comes TO Olympia next month with
the largest number OF votes.-Chehaiis

There Is one feature in the senatorial
contest In this state that should be kept
In mind by the people. 1t Is the general
desire OF the Republicans of Washington
tina. Governor McGraw be sent TO the
United States senate. IL Is considered
bess that he serve his term as chief ex-
ecutive OF this state and be elected to the
senate by the next legislature. Governor
McGraw Is by ell odds the most popular
Republican in the state. He has main
tanned the high standing OF Washington
at home and abroad by his honest. able
and energetic administration. His du-
ties have brought him into Intimate and
personal relations with all parts OF the
state. No one could be sent 10 the sem
ate who would he In n position 10 serve
his constituents as well as Governor Nc
Graws Clailam county has found him
. valuable friend and the Republicans OF
this county are unanimous in the wish
