Yakima Times: The state convention at
Everett was a most harmonious affair.
The kissing and making UP between King
and Pierce counties was an affecting IN
cident. and it is said there was not q dry
lip in the whole convention. Pierce cheersd
King at the slightest cough from a King
county delegate, and the taking OF a fresh
chew Of tobacco by one Of the north canal
delegates was sufficient cause to bring ap-
plause from the Pierce representatives. It
was not the smoke from Everett factories
that caused those moist eyes, but the
swelling hearts Of those long estranged
but now united. 1t was q scene to be re-
membered till King and Pierce cross each
others trails again.

A very intelligent observer at the Metho-

the proceedings in . somewhat unusual

and has described them with an Ingenious

Tagging BEHIND.

Ths spokane Review has been insistins
for the past week that the money plank
of the Everett convention does not
reflect the views OF the majority of the
Republicans Of the state and that at the
midsummer convention tho sound money
idea win be repudiated for platform
nors friendly to free silver. The Review
gives no good reasons for these rcitera-
tions. and. as the Everett plank was en-
Enthusiastically adopted by vote OF two to
one. II Is safe TO say It fairly represents
the ideas OF q large majority of the party.
