A Housing Reception.
When Mr.. cushman was introduced
by Chairman Hoyt, remarkable scene
the heartiest and most spontaneous char
acter ever heard or witnessed, but as IL
by one accord everybody. ladies in
cluded, rose in their seats, and for fully
n minute the cheering and the waving OF
hats and handkerchiefs we're kept up. 1t
was a demonstration worthy a conqueror,
and Mr.. Cushman showed himself deeply
moved by 1t. II being some little time be-
fore he could fully control his emotions.
After fttingly expressing his keen APP
probation OF the honor conferred on him
by the reception as well as the beautiful
gift of his German-American friends. Mr..
Cushmen proceeded with his address, COW
ering the many issues of the campaign
and paying his compliments to Bryan and

OF the fallacy of the elastic doctrines
preached by the boy orator OF the

state. he said that II defeated he would
harbor no bitter feelings against any one.
Two years ago the people OF the state laid
the burden of office on his shoulders He
had been faithful to his trust and his rec
ord would bear him out. II again hon
ored with their SURFACES he would. as in
the past, know neither party nor individ-
ual hut would work for the welfare OF
the state. He believed himself broad
enough in mind TO represent the interests
not of one county but OF the entire state.
In thanking his German-American
friends for the cane he referred TO papers
that had accused him OF saying that Ger
mans were no better than Spaniards.
What he did say was that IL the American
people desired to abandon the Philippine
Islands they would be taken by some
others the German flag would be there.
The Chinese also had an eye on those
islands The papers had twisted his SEN
fences and his meaning and had put words
in his mouth he had never uttered.
Don't Vote for Ronald.
Mr.. Cushman did not believe that X was
necessary for him to ask the Republican
voters Of King county TO be loyal TO their
and OF greater general Importance than
in other elections. Attempts had been
made to show that he had been an enemy
10 King county and Seattle. and was In
turing II. Facts and figures covering his
record would prove the falsity OF such
statements. What prosperity did Seattle
have when II had a Democrat In congressY
What Is Seattles prosperity today? IL
typifies the resistless activity and energy
OF the entire country: II ts the Chicago

and teeming with life and industry, and
what an enormous. big man he individu-

his part fniure IL or wipe Il out, No man

appropriations for Alaska, whose golden
wealth had found its way into Seattle: he
had worked for 10000 for lighthouses In
Alaska. and similar amounts for other APP
propriations, all in the interest. more or

Of loyalty to Seattle would not hold good
and could not be snhstantiaied by facts.
