ton came true; the official is not only
alive to-day, but is in better health
than he has experienced for many
years, all OF which he attributes to the
use OF Grape Nuts and from the advice
of Mr.. Hazard. ,
There are two reasons for this; IN
the first place. Grape-Nuts are made
from certain selected portions OF wheat
and barley that contain phosphate OF
potash and albumen which nature uses

as that from Mr.. Gregory. Mr..
Frink has almost as many friends
out in the Seventh as Guie and if
it comes to square fight it will be
demonstrated to the entire salts
faction of both Guie and Humes.
uuu
The all absorbing topic in Re-
publican circles at present is,
What will be the result of the
primary election? "It is an easy
matter to capture the primary
election, if you only understand
the art" said a prominent politi-
clan one day this week, "and if the
Republicans do not watch things
they will see that George Piper
will have the city primaries bot
tied before they know where they
are at. It will be remembered
that Piper lent Lee Hart valuable
assistance in the late Democratic
primaries, and Hart promised to
return the compliment to Piper in
the fall Republican primaries.
Now in precincts where Piper
knows he will lose with Republi-
cans it would be an easy matter
for him to run in enough Demo
cratic and Populist votes to turn
the tide in his favor. The poles
should be carefully watched on the
day Of the primaries and every
vote that looks suspicious should
be challenged"
Speaking about primary cleo
tons the Pie-maker heard the
following from Tacoma politi-
clan one day this week. Il am in
favor of voting for candidates in
the primary election and tie can
didate getting the highest number
of votes in the primaries to be
declared the party nominee.
There is absolutely no fairness in
the world in the present primary
system. For candidates and their
friends can vote opposite parti-
sans and elect delegates to the
convention that will vote diemetri-
cally opposite to the will of the
people. Place your candidates
name on a ballot and vote for him
direct and that will prove far
more satisfactory.
q q u
Bert Taylor claims he is out of
politics and perhaps he will not
go to the next county convention.
Bert occasionally has "blue days"
when he talks that kind of stuff
but they do not last long. He will
be there if the convention is ever
assembled.

the southwest III for him instead
of it coming to the state conven-
ton for Scobey, which, if true,
will go long ways toward making
him power in the next state con-
vention for the Office he seeks.
Mr.. James FL. Price halls from
Thurston county this year and is
only candidate in case there is
no show for Scobey. He feels
that he can more than break even
with Maynard in the southwest,
and, owing to former friendship
and association with Pierce county.
get its support and for the same
reason draw from King and Spo-
kane counties.
q q q
1t seems that j. E. Frost is the
only serious candidate for state
auditor. He halls from Kittitas
county and expects to handle the
most of central Washington in his
favor in the convention. He was
defeated four years ago at the
hands of the free silver craze and
he thinks himself quite entitled to
a denomination, which is quite
correct
Chelan, Douglas and Okanogan
counties have already agreed to
support John d. Atkinson for state
land commissioner. Mr.. Atkin-
son was formerly Seattleite and
he reasons that, if he can get that
part of the state to come out for
him with a bold front he would
find plenty Of warm friends in
Seattle to pick up the cause and
stand by him in the state conven-
ton. He is making many friends
in his candidacy and it looks as
though he would succeed.
The Pie-maker was just about
to overlook the claims Of J. M.
HIT of Pt. Townsend, who is a
candidate for secretary of state,
providing things run smoothly and
the northwest will combine on him.
w. B. Stratton Of Pacific county
has been in the field for some
weeks for the attorney generalship
and is making a thorough cam
paign. He is certain of the south
west as unit for himself, in the
convention despite the fact that it
is not probable that more than one
candidate will come from that
section. He declares that candi-
date will be himself and to that
end he is cutting his cards.
q q q
There will be two supreme
judges to be nominated and so far
as the Pie-maker has been able to
learn some four candidates have
announced themselves. A. L
Miller, Vancouver; r. O. Dunbar,
Klicitatt; John E. HUMPHREYS,
King and Milo A. Root also of
King. These are all good strong
candidates with more or less per-
sonal following, and each will
make desperate struggle for the
nomination.
No reference has been made to
the two congressman that are to be
nominated, for it is generally con-
ceeded that both Jones and Cush-
man will be re-nominated by ac-
clamation. In case the census
declares that Washington is en-
titled to another congressman
Whatcom county is said to be
laying dead for the place and
Jesse Frye is to be the man. The
next census may declare Washing
ton is entitled to four members of
congress in the lower house, and
in that case Judge Wallace Mount
of Spokane will be candidate for
the fourth place.

Ankeny he will loose some of his
strength even in the southwest.

strength even in the southwest.
Hon. S. G. Cosgrove, the Pome-
roy war horse of the bunch grass
section of the state, boasts of being
tied to no politicians coat tail, but
is padding his own canoe. How
much strength he will have for the
governorship in the next state
convention he himself does not
now know, but he is a candidate.
and, in case there comes a dead
lock among the leading candidates,
he predicts himself as the con-
vention's choice for governor. He
will take to the convention a strong
following from Central Washing
ton and will pick up scattering
votes from other sections quite
enough to give him formidable
following to do the coup d'etat act
at the proper time.
New Whatcom's candidate, Gen.
j. J. Weisenburger can hardly be
said to be a candidate for COVER
nor In the common acceptation Of
the term. He has no following
either at home or abroad, so to
speak, but he hopes, owing to the
part he played in the Philippine
war, to gather enough popularity
about him when the Republicans
come together to storm the conven-
ton. All the same Teddy Roos-
velt-but he will not get single
vote is the prediction of the Pie
maker, for Western people have
long since outlived the hero wor-
ship business.
There are numerous dark horse
candidates for the governorship Of
this state, who are laying their
wires for political lightning to
trek to their domiciles in case
the other fellows get into general
squabble over the place. While
the contending factions in King
county will fight each other with a
vengeance for party supremacy,
yet it will be settled at the pri
maries and settled once for all,
and the fellow getting the endorse
ment will be the choice of the
entire county and the same will be
true of the other places. It will
be the man that wins out that will
succeed and the dark horse candi-
date will be non est.
g q q q
But few politicians have appear
ed on the scene to claim the lieu
tenant governorship as yet. Judge
Mcbride of Skagit county, claim
ing the northwest is backing him,
has announced that he will aspire
for the honor. Ii it be true that
he can go to the state convention
with practically solid northwest
he will stand some show of getting
the nomination, but, if the north
west has a number of candidates
for the various places on the state
ticket, and be unable to concen-
trate their forces on any particular
candidate, then Judge Mcbride
will stand no show whatever of
getting the coveted prize. He is
as having no strength in
any other locality.
q q q
The Pie-maker has been credit
ably informed that J. W. ARA
smith, who was candidate four
years ago for the lieutenant gov
will ask for renomina-
ton this year at the hands of the
Republican state convention. Mr..
Arrasmith halls from the Ankeny
part of the state and he doubtless
will have Whitman county at his
back. Ii he can also control the
influence in his favor he
will be good strong candidate
for the lieutenant governorship
nomination.

It is reported, and reported on
very good authority at that, that
Samuel Nichols Of Snohomish
county will be a strong candidate
for secretary of state. This place,
it is thought by many politicians,
should 60 to the northwest to
counterfeit the influence that the
denomination of Will ID. Jenkins
for the same position might have
in that section. Nichols is said to
be very popular, and, if he proves
to be popular enough to more
than half organize the northwest,
he is most likely to be nominated
for the secretaryship.
