Is it Really True?

1t is announced in Seattle with
a confidence that is almost convinc-
ing that Hon. J. M. Frink has
consented to allow his name to go
before the Republican state con-
vention as a candidate for governor.
Considering the fact that Mr..
Frink has always been and is now
very active business man, one
who is in love with his business,
it is hard to believe that he would
even after years of a successful
career quit the pursuits which
have been dear to his heart to take
up the affairs of state.
But if it is true, the Republican
party of Washington is to be con-
graduated, for Mr.. Frink is a clean
man; he is an able man; his busi-
ness achievements and his services
in the state Legislature amply
prove that. More, he will have
a strong following Of laboring
men; men who recognize him as a
just employer-one who during
the hard times gave to his men
far more wages and work than his
business justified.
1t is by the selection of such
men that a party makes itself
invincible. By the elevation of
such man the party gains friends
and adherents from the ranks of
those whose eyes and ears are
closed to the clap-trap Of self
seeking politicians. The News
does not pretend to predict how
the free and enlightened citizens
of Ballard will vote for governor,
but it ventures the guess that the
man who will obtain their sup
port over J. M. Frink's head will
have to be q mighty good man.

while King county has been
virtually erased from the political
map Of Washington, and the
people of the great Northwestern
section of the state have felt
almost bereft of official represen-
tation since Seattle is the only
political and commercial center
with which they are in touch.
For this reason King county's
plans for the coming campaign are
of general interest, and we believe
the suggestions made by Hon.
Edward P. Tremper in a recent
communication to the Post IntelIi-
gencer will be we'll taken He
believes that, in Difference to an
unwritten law giving our congress
man at least two terms, Messrs.
Cushman and Jones should be
re-nominated, and that King
county should ask for the office of
governor. Some consideration is
certainly due our present congress-
men for the splendid canvass they
made in 1898 and for their faithful
services at the national capitol,
and if King county tries to nomi-
nate a candidate for representative
she is sure to have the usual fight
on her hands. To present can
didate for the gubernatorial nomi-
nation would certainly be more
diplomatic, and if good man is
put forward there would be no
just reason for opposing his nomi-
nation. King county has such a
candidate in the person of Hon. J.
M. Frink, who for eight years has
represented his county in the
state senate. To put forward
tried public servant with a record
such as senator Frink's, would
strengthen King county's claims In
the convention, as no other section
could produce a more acceptable
candidate Arlington Times.

Must Fight It Out.

Ii the King county Republican
club is authorized to speak for the
Republican party of King county,
notice is officially served upon the
Republicans Of the rest Of the
state that congressional ambitions
have been put aside and that King
county at the state convention will
ask only for the privilege of
naming the candidate for governor.
The congressional ambitions
were not abandoned without some
heart burnings, but the handwrit-
ing on the wall was not to be
mistaken, and it was decided to be
impolitic to try to stem the tide
that has already set in favor for
the denomination of Representa-
tive Cushman and Jones.
Ii King county is modest enough
to only ask for governor, there
will be strong disposition to
grant her request, provided Hon.
j. OBJ. Scobey and the famous
and feared Southwestern combina-
tion has not already foreclosed a
mortgage of earlier record.
The difficulty with King county
will be to decide upon the candi-
date to be presented. Speaker
Guie, J. M. Frink and Mayor
Humes, all Of Seattle, have already
formally announced their candi-
dacy. Mr.. Guie is not a quitter
except in a senatorial caucus, and
Mayor Humes has held office for
SO many years it will be difficult
to convince him that he is not pre-
ordained to perpetually pass from
one soft snap to another.
If there is any hope of winning
out, King county must decide
between the three before she comes
into the convention, and must
present a united front. There is
no disposition in other parts Of
the state to insert already blistered
fingers into the Seattle fire.
A report Of the proceedings of
the club meeting at which the
decision to try for governor was
reached, would indicate that the
prime favorite Of the club, which
numbers 685 numbers, is Hon. j.
M. Frink. Every mention of his
name was cheered, although it was
distinctly understood that under
its constitution and bylaws the
club could indorse no candidate
for Office at this time.
It is up to King county now to
make a choice between her three
candidates. The rest Of the state
will look on in a wholly disinte-
rested manner, for it really makes
little difference whether there is a
final uniting or not.
1t is by no means absolutely
essential either to success or party
harmony that King county should
at this time have the governorship
or any other office.-Tacoma News.

candidate for governor, subject
of course, to the ratification of the
regular Republican state conven-
tion.
lie Mr.. Frink should be nomi-
mated he will make an excellent
governor. No man in the state
ranks higher for personal char
acter or for business sagacity.
He has had a varied career al
though very much in line with
that Of a majority OF Americans
who have attained distinction.
He was born in Luzerne county,
Pennsylvania, 1916, and after
living in Madison county, New
York, where he attended school,
he went with his father to Brown
county, Kansas, where he spent
twelve years. He worked on a
farm in summer and taught school
in winter. He attended Wash
burn College aud was at one time
a member of the school board of
Topeka. He came to Seattle in
1879, teaching school for two years
and the same length of time at
Port Gamble. In 1881 he went
into the iron works of Tenny &
Frink and has been manager ever
since, although since 1884 it has
been the Washington Iron Works.
He has built up a wonderfully
successful business and is as
highly esteemed by every man who
had ever worked for him as by
every man who has had any kind
of dealing with him. He was a
member of the school board for
five years and a member Of the
city council for two years, but is
best known throughout the state
as Senator Frink who served in the
second senate White River
