SAYS the sick Seattle Times: "This
may be a legislature of reform, but it
does not live up to the name. Yester-
day the house wrangled for two hours
from 10 until II o'clock-over two
committee clerkships. Two chairmen
of committees were in favor of electing
Miss Carroll, of Seattle, and another
chairman presented minority report
in favor of another clerk. For two
hours the house argued on the propo-
sition, with the final result that the
clerk selected by the minority was
elected. Now it costs the state SIS
minute to maintain the house during
the present session. One hundred
and twenty minutes were consumed
in deciding the clerkship matter. In
brief, it costs the state just $72O to
elect petty clerk. 1t would un-
doubtedly have been much more in
the line of economy and reform had
both clerks been given jobs.

Turner Bags the SenatOrship.

On the twenty-fifth ballot, taken
last Friday noon, George Turner
knocked the perslmmon, the vote
standing as follows: Turner, 6S;
Denny, 25; Westcott. 10; Squire, l..
The Republicans took no part in the
selection, but the result was altogether
due to the populist vote, of which
Turner received all but 10, and the
populists can only blame their own
kind for not beng represented by
populist. They had clear majority,
but were unable to come anywhere
near agreeing on any populist; those
who were not open candidates, prob
ably hoping that lightning might
strike them.
THE JOURNAL is well satisfied over
the selection of Judge Turner, leaving
aside the matter of politics. Judge
Turner is an able and sensible man.,
and will certainly prove a credit to
the state, while if any one of the other
candidates had been selected, it would
have been far worse than being I'M
represented. The populist candidates
were either weak, immature, or else
of the wild, visionary class, for such
an important position, and those pre-
sented from the other fusion elements
were no better. Of course the little
section around Spokane gets two SEN
ators and congressman, while the
rest of this large state gets left, but we
hope Senator Turner is broad enough
to take us all in.
THERE have been many rumors of
Doodle in connection with the contest
and some direct charges. DR.. Calhoun
charged Senator Plummer, Rep. War
ner and others, with offering to sell
votes in blocks of five and others have
been implicated. Investigating COM
mittees have been appointed, but they
are usually farces. Now that the SEN
atorial question is out of the way, the
legislature will be able to digest the
500 bills now before it, of which only
two small appropriation bills have
been passed so far.
TURNER admitted before the investi-
eating committee that his total ex-
penses reached $4,000, divided between
wine suppers, hotel bills for workers,
etc., but nothing for bribing the legis-
lators. The investigation may not
bring to light any further facts, but
the question is, how much should he
properly have used. Give some of the
populists half of $4,000 and one of
them could have been elected.
