| VIII Be out Oh n JOb After Next
| Tuesday.
Vote for Matt Barthoet for treasurer
and know that the county funds are in
honest and capable hands.
A vote for III. l.. Tucker is a vote for a
man who is in everyday qualified to
make an upright and excellent sheriff.
The Times attacks Auditor Hall but
the animus OF it will be understood when
it is known that the editor was an appli-
cant for one Of the deputyships but failed
to be appointed.
1t is proposed to have brigade Of BIZ
cycles in the great parade OF the fusion
forces on next Monday evening and all
Of those who are to take part in this fea-
turs of the procession are requested to
report at headquarters at Z 80 p. m.
A bet OF $50 side was made the other
day on the result of the shrievalty con.
test between Thomas Lund and Dan
Goodwin, Mr.. Lund betting that Jack
Shaw will be elected and Mr.. Goodwin
backing his opinion that II. l.. Tucker
will be successful.
Yakima county has never been favored
with prosecuting attorney who has filled

Engehart. A vote for Mr.. Englehart is
a vote for vigorous, able and economi-
cal administration of the Office OF prose.
cutor. He should be supported by every
law abiding citizen by every taxpayer.
An exchange says: Upon going into
that little booth to vote, where ones only
company is said to be his God and lead
pencil, it will be well to remember that
the gold standard is the pet scheme of
that one.twentieth OF one per cent of our
population that now owns half the wealth
of the country. and wants to keep people
in debt until it gets possession of the
other half. 1t is a modest little scheme,
but il the American people are not care
full they will contribute to its success.
After next Tuesday, good many citi-
zens OF Yakima, who are not now hold
ing office, will be out of job. Like
Othello they will be mourning that their
occupation is gone. But as their EN-
ployment hasn't been especially profita-
BILE and in many cases absolutely ineffect-
i've there will probably be few regrets,
especially in the families OF those who
are 80 blessed. AS bread producer the
uBsalaried position OF political pusher
and sidewalk spellbinder has many dis
advantages.
The republican managers have organ
lied Mckinley club among the scholars
Of the high school. for the purpose Of
swelling the procession on Friday night.
Anything to outshine the Bryan parade
of last Friday is their constant and over
weening thought. One Of their number
stated on Tuesday that they had expend-
ed $3.50 to make the procession success.
While that Is only small part OF the
BILE to expend on pomp and Yanity-but
then, you know, Mark Hanna has money
to burn and the boys propose to burn it
on that occasion.
The Times charges Col. Walker with
drawing salary as deputy assessor while
attending the Everett convention. There
is nothing to be gained by such malicious
fslsehood and If the Times man had only
taken the trouble to look at the records
he would find that for four days during
his absence at the convention he neither
put in bill for services nor was any al
lowance made to him by the county for
such period. Col. Walker is an honora-
BILE gentleman and made good officer as
deputy which is q strong indication that
he would satisfactorily fill the advanced
position to which he aspires.
S. L. Masters of the Cowychee, has the
following to say in communication
to THE HERALD over his signature: 81
understand that VIM. Burgess has been
around telling people that / have been
injuring him by telling people that he
acted with the populist club at its organi-
cation, but that is not SO. The fact is
that he acted as the secretary of the
meeting at its organization and as secre-
tary OF the committee on bylaws, and
reported the same. have the minutes
of the meeting in my possession to prove
these facts as stated and his denying
them is only on par with other things
that he and his pals have done and said
The ways OF the practical politician are
mysterious but the clear penetrating light
OF day is sometimes thrown upon them
This has been the case with regard ia
one OF the schemes that republican pa
triot and candidate for governor, Potter
Charles Sullivan, has been pursuing
Catching an idea, no doubt from reading
DIR. Jekel-Mr. Hyde, he has been present
ing two faces--one to one class OF people
: and the other to another. He has had his
strikers or emissaries working through
out the state. They have been travelling

tracks Of another. To the saloons be hai
