CANDIDATES OF BOTH

THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN feels called upon
to champion the election of Dr. J. j. Smith,
the Thrtieth senatorial district to represent that
district in the next legislature state senator
in doing it feels that it championing the cause
of a worthy of any good thing that might be
said of him not only by it, but by any ether paper
person in King county DR.. Smith has lived in this
county for the past fifteen years and has proven
himself to be ideal citizen in whatever business
political avCcatiOn he may have been called upon
fill by his fellowmen since he has been resident
OF this county Nothing in these columns be said
in his behalf that will be to the voters of his
district, because they all know him and they know
him to be other than the ideal citizen that he
has been credited with being since he has been
among them. No successfully charge DIR.
Smith with being tool instrument of any party,
person combination, and for that he stands
fair before the people American citizen
stand Ought not be said against Dr. Smiths
opponent for state senator for reputation charac
ter and veracity he stands just fair Dr. Smith
himself only he stands for party and principle
politics that the majority of the people of that
district do not approve Of and nasmuch they have
a candidate of their party equally as honorable
in every respect Mr.. Calhoun, 1t is perfectly nat

with Mr. Preston, and the two were warm personal
friends during the entire session. When the Times
declares that Dr. Smith is unfavorable to Harold
Preston it does him injustice and a political
wrong that the Times any other paper or person
should not feel warranted in doing without desiring
to do the wilful injustice. At no time and at
no place has either Dr. Smith or his friends taken
political advantage of any other asprant for the
senatorial nomination in that district Ed Nolte to
the contrary Notwithstanding. He was by no means
responsible for the people not wanting Mr.. Note to
represent them in the state senate and it was per-
tectly natural for him to accept such an honor
when handed to him silver platter He
has no fears CT the final results Of the campaign that
is now being waged against him by the Democrats
and Ed NOlte, he is well aware of the fact that
all OF the Democrats in the district are going to vote
for Calhoun, while but very few Republicans if any
at all, will vote for Nolte Notes petition was
signed largely by Democrats and not by Republicans
and if the Democrats had not signed it he would
not have been able to have gotten enough signers
for his petition to have gotten the ticket The
many readers Of The Seattle Republican in that
district will vote to stand by the Republican nom
nees for the legislature and give each and every
one OF them rousing majorties regardless of their
Democratic opponents

When The Republican advocates the
de.eat Of George B. Lamping it does
so fer various reasons, all of which
will bare the closest investigation by
the voters Of this county. No man
that has ever ben elected to an office
in this county has spent SO little of
his time in the Office as has George B.
L Lamping since he was elected some
two years ago. 1t is the exception
and not the rule to find Auditor Lamp
ing at his desk. He has been to San
Francisco, been here and been there,
days down town instead of at the
court house, until it became chest
nut to inquire at the county auditors
office rs Lamping in?" Does the pub
lie wish such a county official as that?
Is he the man to place in an Office,
On which grave responsibilities are de-
vClved? Do the voters of this county
wish to elect a political ornament to
a county office? Do the voters wish
to elect a man to an Office and pay
him $4,000 a year just because he is
a bully good fellow with his gang and
because he is a fine looking fellow and
can be pointed to with pride as a
beau brummel? Again, do the voters
Of this county propose to rush man
to the front, who is opposed by al
large number Of Republicans? Mr..
Lamping has incurred the displeasure
of every colored voter in King county
and the Pie-maker would not be sur
prised if he has not likewise incurred
the displeasure of every Catholic vot-
er in the county, and he certainly
should have incurred the displeasureI
Of every tax payer in this county be-
cause he has been nothing more or
less than a political sinecure and
parasite, only holding his Office for
the purpose of drawing his salary and
leaving the care of it to deputies and
clerks. The Republican party would
do itself proud if it would rid itself

Down in North Carolina where the
Democrats disfranchised the iIIiterate
NegrOe voter, but refused to disfran-
chise the ignorant white voter and
gave as a reason for the same that
the illiterate white voter was better
informed than either the intelligent
or the illiterate Negroes, some queer
things happen. Ii the Charlotte OBJ
server, the leading daily paper of that
section, can be relied upon even the
white voter has but fair understand
ing Of what registration and voting
mean. The registration clerk asked
white man if he wanted to register un-
der the grandfathers' clause, and here
is his answer:
The man looked straight at the
registrar a moment, then growIed
My father had no claws. He was no
dog, I'll have you to understand, and
you can go to ; I'll not register
and I'll not vote, and he walked out
in huff. Efforts at explaining the
matter were useless

It is noted that one Ed NOlte of
Columbia City, this county, has an
nounced himself as an Independent
candidate for state senator from the
3Oth senatorial district in opposition
to the regular Republican nominee,
DR.. ]. ]. Smith. Nolte, it seems, was
a candidate for the nomination, but
no one in the district save himself
took any stock in his candidacy and
that made him politically sore. The
Democrats, believing that NOlte could
to some extent draw votes from DR..
Smith, signed a petition to have his
name placed on the regular ticket, and
through this means he succeeded IN
getting a place on the ticket as an in
dependent. Those who are acquaint-
ed with the district and have had
|ormer political dealings with Mr..
Nclte say he is nothing more or less
than a chronic Office seeker and is al
WAYS sore when he gets defeated, anu
vet he has always been defeated. In
other words Nolte is the only man in
the district that believes in single
instance that he would make public
servant in any capacity. J. D. Jones,
who formerly lived at Franklin, was
through the district one day this week
and he reports that Mr.. Nolte will not
get fifty votes throughout the entire
district, as the Democrats are going
to vote for Calhoun and the Republi-
cans are going to vote for DR.. J. J.
Smith.

in face Of that there must be a differ

Catholics Of this county do their duty

stone unturned to strengthen the
legislative ticket at every point, as the
election of the legislative candidates
will go long ways toward getting

it will get your votes.

Of such a man and it would be a les
son to others of his kind if the party
would rid itself of this man at this
OppOrtune time.
-
Begin now to think how YOU will
mark your ballot so as to accomplish
what you set out to do. If you want
to vote the straight Republican ticket
and yet scratch one or two candidates
place cross x after Republican tick
ct at the head of the official ballot
and then mark an x after Harry Dreese
on the Democratic ticket for county au-
ditOr. Another way is to make no
mark whatever after either parties at
the head of the ballot, but place a
mark a ter those candidates on any
tickets for whom you desire to vote.
Do not draw lead pencil across
Lamping's name to show your dis
pleasure, for him, because your ballot
will be thrown out. Instead of that
place a cross after Dree's name and
that counts for two votes against
Lamping If only 700 colored voters
in King county will each go after
George B. Lamping's scalp properly
the Pie-maker is prepared to say to
you that you will gel your man. Do
it right

That County Clerk Koepfii has some
political enemies in this county goes
without saying, but they are for the
most part Democrats and Democrats
are always political enemies of Repub-
lican nominees. No one whether he
be Republican, Democrat or Socialist,
can successfully charge Mr.. Koepfli
as being direlict to his duty since he
has been elected to the Office of coun-
ty clerk He has always been found
managing and experimenting the af-
fairs of his Office the same as one Of
his clerks. Because Mr.. Koepfli would
net discharge some man that might
have been objectional to some other
man is no reason for his being defeat
ed at the polls by the Republican vOt-
ers and he will not be, that disgrun-
tied Republican to the contrary not
withstanding. The Republican has rea-
sons to know that Mr.. Koepfi has
done his duty as clerk of King county
and he will continue doing so after
he has been reelected next November.

POLITICAL POT : PIE


When the name of Will Ingliss was
sprung On the late Republican county
convention in opposition to that of
c. A. Koepf1i, who was aspiring for
second nomination, as were others in
that convention, and who had made
a most efficient official, it was done
supposedly at the instigation of George
b. Lamping, who himself had just
been unanimously nominated for his
second term, but who desired to see
Mr.. Koepf1i defeated and one of his
clerks nominated in lieu thereof.
There is no doubt in the minds of all
Republicans in this county but that
the scheme to nominate Will lngliss
at the expense of Mr.. KOepfi was we'll
understood by George B. Lamping,
George U. Piper and others of that
fix of politicians. The scheme, how
ever. did not work and Mr.. Koepfli
was nominated in spite Of them, but
the friends of Mr. Koepfli have not for
gotten that proposition. and the Pie
maker would not be surprised If
George B. Lamping did not lose four
or five votes on that account, and per-
haps that four of five votes might be
multiplied into four or five hundred.
Mr.. Koepfii had made a splendid Of
fetal and the Republicans saw no rea-
son why he should not get second
nomination, if others, and among them
George B. Lamping, got second nom
inatiOn. This is the kind OF man
that is now seeking reelection at
the hands of the Republican party, a
man who will sacrifice everything and
everybody for his own selfish inter-
ests.

Let no Republican in King county
overlook the fact when he goes IN TO

one of the ablest, cleanest and most
proficient lawyers that has ever been
nominated for prosecuting attorney of

county to have an able and clean ad-

should cast their votes for him. Mr..

The Pie-maker notes that Senator
George Turner is campaigning the
state from east to west and from
north to south almost single handed
and alone, not even the Democratic
congressional nominees are conde-
scending to help him in speech max
ing for the sake of the Democratic
nartv. Evidently Senator Turner is
q great deal more interested in the
success of the Democratic party be-
cause the success of that party means
his success, than he is in the success
of the party from party standpoint.
If Senator Turner were not candl-
date for reelection to the United
A,ates senate it looks as though he
would have no interest in the success
of the Democratic party this fall. The
Pie-maker is prepared to say that Sen
ator Turner has always been a selhsn
politician, even when he was IN the
Republican party. He fought the
hardest when his own political inter-
est was at stake If he was not can
didate for something his voice was
seldom, if ever, heard on the stump
during the campaign. But if George
Turner wanted something then he was
most ardent in his advocacy OF Repuo=
1icanism. The same is true OF him as
Democrat. In 1896 he wanted some
thing and he canvassed the state by
and large. He succeeded in getting
what he wanted and then went to
Washington and left the campaigning
of the state in subsequent years to 9TH
ers. He is again wanting something
and for that reason he is campaigning
the state with all the force and v1gor
characteristic of the man. God bless
me and my wife, my brother Will and
his wife, us four and no more.

nice young man, but nice young men
do not always make successful prose-
cutting attorneys. 1t is the man who
is grizzled and gray from experience
in his chosen profession, as is Mr.
Scott, that makes the best official for
any county and for that reason it be-
hooves the Republicans, Democrats
and Socialists in King county to vote
for W. T. Scott for prosecuting attor-
ney, and thereby assure themselves
of electing a man that will do his
sworn duty and one that has had suf-
ficient experience in the law business
to know what his duty is. Mr.. Scott
is older in years and experience than
his opponent and, as has already been
said in this connection, that counts
for much in the administering Of the
affairs of the Office of prosecuting at
torney in large and populous county.
Unless the Pie-maker is sadly mis-
taken there is an air OF oyerconf1dence
anon gthe Republicans in this county,
which may cost them great many
votes. The assumption that the Re
publican ticket is going to win hands
down may prove true, but occasionally
such an assumption gets badly slipped
up upon and the opposition elects
their ticket instead Of your ticket win
ming. Republicans by the wholesale
are contemplating not going to the
polls, believing that the county is so
Overwhelmingly Republican that their
votes will not be necessary in the
coming contest. This spirit of apathy
was seen in the registration, as hun
dreds of Republican voters failed to
register in due season in order to as
sure them a vote next November. In
times of peace it is we'll to prepare
for war, and unless the Republicans
begin at once to prepare for war they
will find that next November they will
be weighed in balance and found
wanting. The senatorial ticket in this
county is to be especially attacked all
down the line and it behooves the Re-
publicans to keep sharp lookout for
such a flank movement.
