The political "quid nuncs" de-
clare that some Of the King county
otficers-elect have promised twice as
many persons places in their offices
as there are places to fill, and that
when they shall have been installed
into office they will be sorely per-
picked as to which one of the many
that they have promised positions to
place as their deputies. Promising
every man that declares he has half
ia dozen votes in his vest pocket
which he can turn your way if you
will give him clerkship is very
bad business, and when a few more
politicians will have met ignomini-
GUS defeat, as did some in this state
n the late campaign, men nominated
for official positions will learn to
promise nothing, but simply say to
all, their applications will be consid-
cred along with others, but whoever
is employed in the office will be en-
.ployed on account Of their fitness for
the position they seek instead of the
political pull that they declare they
have.

Rumor has it that there will still
be others to enter this speakershir
contest and will go to Olympia pre-
pared to do all kinds Of trading from
a political standpoint that would
tend toward landing them in the
much-coveted chair. The northwest
will have candidate, and so will the
southwest, but unless the speakershir
should come to King county, it is
likely to go to some county in East
.ern Washington, as that section Of
the state has not gotten its necessary
pro rata Of the state officers in the
last official makeup.

When King county gets another
opportunity to elect a governor of
this state, a United States senator or
a congressman it will be a cold day.
Two years ago King county could
have elected a United States senator
had it not been so blindly tied to one
Tom Humes, whose candidacy was
being fostered by Ankeny's barrel,
that her representatives preferred to
go down in defeat rather than see a
King county man elected to the
United States senate and they lose
their wad. A united effort was made
by the King county delegation at the
last state convention to get the gov
.ernorship nomination for their coun-
ty, and after much political parley-
ing it was conceded to King county
and one Of King county's best citi-
zens named for the honor, where
upon King county did&ot do a thing
to him at the polls and he was de-
feated for the place. Now, the bal
ance Of the state Of Washington is
laughing in their sleeves at the folly
Of the politicians Of King county,
and they boldly assert that it will be
a good many years before King coun-
ty will get another candidate at the
hands of said convention for the citi-
zens Of King county themselves to
defeat.

When W. J. Meredith was made
chief Of the police it was virtually
the same as electing the private sec
rotary of Frank Monroe, the notori-
Gus tenderloiner, or the bouncer of
the Clancy brothers, to the office.
For years it has been known that
Meredith was in close political touch
with Monroe, and since he has been
connected with the police force he
has done his bidding in every partic-
ular. Now that he has been made
chief of the police it is very appar-
ent that Monroe and his friends will
receive especial police protection
from Chief Meredith. Monroe will be
chief in fact, rather than Meredith.
10 place these men at the head Of
the police department is one of the
disgraces of the Humes administra-
ton, and it blandly shows its true
disregard for public decency, so far
as the affairs Of this city are con-
cerned. Mayor Humes and his new
chief may not run Seattle as com
plete resort, but it will be so near it
that it will take an expert to deter
mine the difference, and it will be no
fault of theirs if they do not.

POLITICAL P0T-PIE


In last weeks Republican the Pie.
maker declared that Tom Hume;
and his friends in King county were
personally responsible for the de-
feat Of Senator Frink for the gov
ernorship of this state.
To prove what was said in that is
sue to be fact beyond reasonable
doubt, the official count Of King
county is hereby referred to.
While the most of the Republican
county nominees got a 800 majority
at the polls, Mr.. Lamping and DR..
Hoye, respectively candidates for
county auditor and coroner, and
Humes men, received $3.50 majority,
showing that Humes' followers
knitted the balance of the ticket and
voted for these men only, which very
votes, if they had been cast for
Frink, would have elected him gov
ernor of the state
It is no trick at all to see who de-
feated Frink for governor, and one
of these days Mayor Humes and his
friends will have to talk this matter
all over again.
The Seattle Republican. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1???-1915, 1900-11-23

The Pie-maker learns indirectly
that Senator Frink thinks that the
Walla Walla banker was true to the
Republican party in the late cam
paign. Perhaps he was, and per-
haps he was not, and large per
centage of the voters believe that
he was not. Grant that Mr..
Ankeny, like George Piper was true
at the eleventh hour; it was too late
for him to undo the harm that he
had already done.
The Seattle Republican. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1???-1915, 1900-11-23

Madam Rmor has it that Mayor
Tom Humes has seen the handwrit-
ing on the wall as to his future poll
teal success in this county, and that
he has determined upon becoming a
fusion candidate for mayor of this
city. That is to say, he will be sup
ported by the tenderloiners, the
Democrats and thugs in general.
Whether or not these men will be
able to land him remains to be seen.
Nevertheless he will meet a strong
opposition among the better class of
citizens of this city, and never again
will he be elected by the Republican
party, for either that or any other
political Office.

their being elected from districts will
have to be devised, though they could
be elected from the state at large as
at present. In discussing this matter
with a prominent politician one day
this week, it was suggested by him
that all Eastern Washington be one
district, and Western Washington be
divided into two as follows: King
county and the northwest counties
in one and Pierce and the southwest
counties in another. But by all
means he insisted King and Pierce
counties should be separated and
never put in the same district. These
two counties are eternally in a politi-
cal scrap with each other, and should
they be placed in the same congress
siOnal district there is no doubt but
that they would soon disrupt the Re
publican party over their rival jeal-
Ousies, so that Democrats would be
elected.

The election returns from East
ern Washington show that the voters
of that section of the state are
strongly in favor of railroad legisla-
ton. That kind Of railroad legisla-
ton that will reduce the freight rates
between Eastern Washington and
the Puget Sound country. In other
words, and to put it more plainly,
the voters of Eastern Washington
want cheaper rates for both freight
and passengers from all parts Of this
state. 1t is one Of the principles of
this country to submit to the will of
the majority. Now, if the majority
of the voters Of the Eastern part of
the state desire cheap rates the Pie
maker is Of the opinion, and verify
does believe, that they should have
it, and hopes that the incoming leg
islature viii take up this matter as
soon as it convenes and is organized
The Republican party of Washing
ton need expect no favors from the
railroads, or the railroad politicians,
for when the candidate suits them,
whether he is Republican, Demo
crat or Pop, they forthwith use all
of their exertions to elect such can
didate.

HAS NO POLITICAL PULL
I'll SECOND AVE.

The Seattle Republican is trying
to read this paper out Of the Repub
lican party. To The Republican We
will say this paper does not rely OF
its political pull for an existence
Can The Republican truthfully say
as much? It is a well-known fact
that The Republican is the mouth
piece of Wilson and his henchmen,
and in its columns they vent their
spleen against every one who is for
clean politics and true Republican
principles. No respectable paper
would permit its columns to be used
for such despicable purposes. Re
form, Clayton, reform! and don't
SOW any more discord in the Repub-
lican ranks.-Auburn Argus.

In sqbstantiation of this thought.
Ben Grosscup, the politician Of the
Northern Pacific, who processes to be
most ardent Republican and who
has affiliated with that party for
many years, deliberately turned on
the nominee Of the Republican party
for governor in the late campaign,
and unquestionably defeated him.
and for no other reason than because
he knew that he could not handle
him if elected.

1t is said that J. T. Ronald, the
late Democratic candidate for con-
gress, feels his defeat more keenly
than any of the other Democrats
who were his associates. Ronald be-
lieved himself very popular, his Mis-
souri, ancestry to the contrary not
withstanding, and he felt absolutely
certain that he would be elected
even if the balance of the ticket wen
down in defeat; but Ronald is giver
% talking through his hat, and hC
talked through it to perfection in thu
last campaign.
The Seattle Republican. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1???-1915, 1900-11-23

Mr.. Rosenhaupt made many
friends among the members of the
members Of the last legislature, and
he must have pleased well his con-
stituents, as the official report from
his district in Spokane county show;
that he was elected by very large
majority.

The growth Of the state from wear
to year has simply been miraculous,
and for the next decade it promises
to even surpass these figures. If the
thirteenth census does not give
Washington five members Of con
gress instead Of three we will be
greatly surprised. As she has grown
in population, so has she grown in
wealth and industries.

first voted. Here are the figures:

In times past Gov. Rogers had
manipulated things to the interest
of the railroad company and to the
detriment Of the farmers of Eastern
Washington, and this pleased well
the railroad politician, and so he be-
came party to his reelection. Now
that Grosscup has defeated the Re-
publican party, he certainly should
not expect any legislation in favor Of
the railroad corporation for which he
is working, and, if he wants any. let
him get it from Gov. Rogers, whom
he has elected at the expense Of the
Republican party. That Gov. Rog-
ers will veto any legislation in that
direction goes without saying, never
theless the Republican legislature
will have put the Republican party
on record as being the party that is
willing to give the farmers a fair
deal and by that means it will be
able to 90 before the voters two years
from now and elect a full Republi-
can roster of officials in every county
leeause they will have clean records
Bobby Albertson, according to re-
ports, has seen the handwriting on
the wall in the speakership contest
and has practically thrown up the
sponge. The most Of the politicians
of this city agreed with the Pie-mak-
er in last weeks issue as to Bob's fit
ness for the place, and in some in
stances, even men in the Humes
camp declared to the Pie-maker that
it would be a public calamity for
such man as R. B. Albertson to be
elected speaker Of the house. He
will possibly get three votes out OF
the entire delegation from King
county, and not over a bakers dozen
from the entire state-and he does
not deserve that many.
