would have done all in his power to Sc
cure the reelection Of his fellow demo-
crat, Senator Turner.
Governor Mcbride Is an ardent repub-
ican, and Is expected to replace the
democratic appolntees of Governor
Rogers with republican followers. He
owes his nomination and election as
lieutenant governor to ex-United States
Senator John l.. Wilson, but his actions
as president of the state senate last
spring are taken as an indication that
he will not assist Wilson to return to
the senate, but will throw his influence
to State Senator Harold Preston Of
Seattle.
Harold Preston Is an attorney OF
marked ability and in politics man Of
Independent thought and action. He was
the author Of the Preston railroad rate
bill introduced in the legislature at the
last session, fact which has made him
popular with the farmers of Eastern
Washington, to whom no political issue is
of greater Importance than that of se-
curing lower freight rates on agricultural
