quies of King Edward last Tuesday.
and he was the only black potentate
present. King Lewaniaka is said to
be very, very black, but being the
only king in Africa at present whose
region lies along the upper Zambesi
river, and on account of his having
given up his native costumes and
adopting the habits and costumes of
the English people, he was invited by
King Edward to be present at his cor
Cnation, and he has been enjoying
the luXuries of civilization in London
for the past month awaiting the
crowning event of the season. II

esting man, and has ever been ex-

work this week, while the Utah State
Bankers Association was in session.
1t appears that Gayton was 'it" in
every instance, as the following will
tel Thursday evening, lunch on ex-
cursiOn to SnOqualmie Falls and Brem-
erton, and ten-course elaborate ban
quet on Saturday evening at the Raj
nier Club, when eighteen walters were
required to serve about 100 people. It
was considered the most elaborate as
we'll as the most expensive function
served in Seattle within the year, and
the bankers leave with the impression
that Seattle is a typical place for the
national gathering of bankers in 1904
, for the reason that her facilities and
ability for entertaining cannot be
equalled. A perfect shower of compli-
ments were heaped on Gayton for the
masterful, digniied manner in which
he managed these various affairs.
Much has been said of the superiority
of the white walters, but as long as
Clayton of the Rainier Club can handle
the bankers, and Thos. w. Woods of
the Rainier-Grand can care for the
congressional delegates, as he does,
there is meagre opportunity for the
white walters to display their super
iority CD to the best people.

1t is very generally supposed that
the supreme court will in few days
hand down a decision on the number
of supreme judges that are to be elect
ed at the coming election, and it is
also conceded that that decision will
say three instead of one will have to
be elected next November. In view of
that fact, John E. Humphries has ac-
lively entered the fight for one of the
nominations on the condition that
King county is justly entitled to a
member Of the supreme court. While
Mr.. HUMPHREYS has been a candidate
for this nomination all along, he has
not pushed his candidacy to the ex-
tent that he would have done, because
it was thought that there would be but
Cne candidate to be elected, and it
seems that Judge Hadley had the in
side track for that nomination. How
ever, be it understood that Mr.. Hum
phries will make a fight for the nomi-
nation even though the supreme court
should decide that there will be only
one supreme judge elected next No
yember, but if it should say that three
are to be elected then no one is more
entitled to one of the nominations
than Mr.. Humphries. The Pie-maker
is prompted to say such of him not
for selfish motives, for his career in
this city is an open book, and If nomi-
mated and elected to the supreme
bench he would make most admir-
able justice. This is not said for any
sinister cause or prompted by any
selfish greed of gain, but from the
actual facts, and in this assertion the
general public in this section of the
state will bear out the statement here
in made. That man who has an am
bition to attain a certain thing, or to
hold a certain office, will always sue
ceen when elected to such a posi-
ton, because such is the ambition of
his life. Mr.. Humphries has an am
bition to become a member of the su-
preme bench, and if he is successful
in getting what he wants there is no
doubt but that he will make most
useful as well as a successful judge
in order to prove to the world that he
was qualified and capable of holding
the position that he has so long
sought. It is commendable in any man
to have an ambition and to work to
that end, and it is but reasonable to
suppose that when they accomplish
that end they will try to do the very
best they can, if for nothing more
than for their own aggrandizement. II
is therefore predicted in these col
umns that Mr.. Humphries, if nomi
natetd and elected, will prove to be
one of Washington's foremost supreme
judges in every particular.
The Seattle Republican., 1902-06-27

Owing to the previous lineup be-
tween J: w. Peter and the WoOding
combine, the Pie-maker is inclined to
believe that Mr. Peter will be nom
mated for county assessor by as large
a vote as will Mr.. Wooding be nom.
mated for sheriff. Mr.. Peters Oppon-
nent, Chris Frasch, is a very popular
politician, especially in the city, and
will get quite a few votes from the
various wards, but they will hesitate
before endorsing Frash, however anx-
ious they might be for personal as
we'll as political reasons, owing to their
promise to Peter.

he will skin both Zimmerman and

Baker is quite strong.

Political Pot Pie

The first convention gun of the sea-
son has been fired at Walla Walla, and
the Republicans of that county have
indorsed the candidacy of Hon. Levi
Ankeny for United States senator, and
the nominees for the legislature are
pledged to do all within their power
to bring about his election. The
Walla Walla convention is to be fol
lowed by the King county convention,
which will doubtless indorse the can
didacy of Hon. Harold Preston for
United States senator, and these two
candidates having spoken through
their Republican county conventions,
will endeavor to do whatever they can
in the way of trading to aid their
candidates. for the honorable position
they seek The early convention idea
was first brought into operation by
John L. Wilson when in 1900 Spokane
county held it's county convention in
June, and Mr.. Wilson, between that
time and the time of holding the state
convention, successfully traded with
other counties to the extent Of being
able to secure the cooperation OF
enough delegates to name a state
ticket, which he and his friends
thought most favorable to him. The
early convention this year, however,
will not serve the same purpose as it
did in 1900, as there are but four state
officials to be nominated-three mem
bers of Congress and supreme judge
and trading will be of no material
benefit to anyone.

Who will be nominated for prosecuting attorney

city large number of her most important cases in

The Seattle Republican., 1902-06-27

The convention today will nominate
a full county and legislative ticket.
From the results of the late primaries
The Pie-maker feels safe in making the
following prediction as to the outcome
of the convention.
The Seattle Republican., 1902-06-27

1t seems almost impossible at this
writing to predict the outcome of the
Hoye-Carroll controversy for county
coroner, and therefore the Republican
refuses to say which one of these can
didates will win out, owing to the fact
that they are both very strong and
popular candidates and nothing but an
actual vote could decide which is the
stronger of the two.
If John F. Miller is not nominated
for superior judge the Pie-maker
misses his guess, and that, too, despite
George E. Morris political and per
sonal popularity.

The Seattle Republican., 1902-06-27

John .Wooding will be nominated for
sheriff, and almost without opposition,
though Capt. Stringer may get a few
votes from the city.
The indications point strongly to the
nomination Of Harold J. Lea for county
clerk, providing he has made peace
with the Wooding slate, and it looks
as though he has.
George B. Lamping will be unani-
mously renominated for county audi
tor This has been surmised and pre-
dicted all along, but now that no Op-
position has been mentioned for the
place against him there is no doubt of
it.
J. w. McConnaughey, King County's
most efficient treasurer, will likewise
be ronominated, as no one has seen

nomination. Mr.. McConnaughey has
made an ideal official and the conven-
ton today will do itself honor by re-
nominating him.
While there are three pronounced
candidates for the nomination of prose
cutting attorney, it is very apparent
that w. T. Scott will be the nominee
in spite of the opposition of the other
two candidates. z. B. Rawson will
have quite a vote in the convention,
but when they see no show for his
nomination they will go in body to
Mr.. Scott, which will give him the nom
ination by a two-to-one vote over Frank

NEWS FROM SMITH VALLEY.
