PRICE FIVE CENTS

John E. Humphries has given out an interview to
the different papers, in which he states should he be
elected governor he will not veto any bills passed by
the legislature favor of the INDECENT soldiers sailors
and miltiamen. He states he is in favor of the in
digent soldier being allowed to take with him to the
Soldiers Home his wife, to for him in his last
years. He claims that the Home should be large
enough that it will be credit the state and will
maintain the INDECENT soldiers and their wives comfort
ably The state should furnish mich cows hogs sheep
and poultry to stock up the Home that it should be
under the control and superntendency Of old soldiers
Enough land should be occupied a farm, that pro-
Visions meats and the necessaries of subsistence could
be raised upon the farm The INDECENT soldier and his
wife, who able to perform services should be per
mitted to assist the management in keeping up the
Home and raising produce for the support of the in
mates. He says in the language of Abraham Lincoln
Let for him who shall have borne the battle
Let us also care for the wives of him who shall have
borne the battle.
Mr. Humphries also in his interview states that
he is in favor of pension for the remen and police
men, who have served for twenty years, who have
been wounded crippled during service and he is also
in favor of paying the widows and minor children Oh
the deceased fremen and policemen, after ten vars
service a sum not less than 81 100000.
He claims that the law should authorize cities to
provide for the pensonng of firemen and policemen
in this state, in the the states OF New
York. Illinois and California provide for the pension
ing of policemen and firemen and for the widows and
orphans fund of policemen and firemen.
He would pattern system after the system OF
the states named He says, fund should be provided
by the cities under proper statutes to pay the police
men pensions and the fremen $ PENSIONS and also to
pay the amount allowed to the widow and MINOR chill
dren of the deceased policemen and fremen. The po
cemen and fremen devote their lives to the protection
of lives and property and should that they
are properly cared for when too old to continue i'm
the service and their families protected in of
their death while in the line of duty. The state can
not afford to be niggardly toward those who have
staked their lives in the service of their country for
the preservation of the union and the cities not
afford to be parsmonious with policemen and iremen
and their families, where the policemen and fremen
have rsked their lives and health in the preservation
of our lives and property.

REPUBLICANISM DID IT.

'The enemies of the party of progressive Republican
principles busy these days endeavorng to infame
the working classes against the administration. In
1860 the Republican party found labor in the North
wandering in rags upon the Streets and in the South
receiving its wages in lashings upon the naked back
and in chains 1t has lifted all labor to prosperity and
independence and increased wages until today the
American wageearner knows no peer among the indus
trial classes of the world The party which is the
Republican party took bread from the mouth
of sturdy Americans in 1894 and forced them to
the country in bands in rags and starving That
dition is only relieved when the firm hand of Repub-
lcansm again took the reins of government in 1897
and restored business to firm basis"

G. J. LORD FOR GOVERNOR.

While formal announcement of his candidacy has
been made it is nevertheless well understood not only
in Thurston county but throughout the state, that
Mr. c. j. Lord Of this city is candidate for governor.
That he will have the cordial and earnest support of
Thurston county needs hardly the necessity OF an
nouncement Thurston county is always loyal to her
home candidates. While she has sometimes failed at
the convention she has also been successful The
time about ripe for another victory. The conditions
most favorable for the realization of the guberna
oral ambition for Thurston county, at the next state
convention.
Mr. Lord is of course best known in this county, but
he is not without wide acquaintanceship in all parts
of Washington. He is recognized one of the fore
most business of the state AS mayor of this city
two terms he has displayed exceptional executive abl
ty. He will make ideal governor. He is Identified
with political faction in this state. In fact politics
is his business and he is tied to interest nor has
he any special gubernatoria hobby. He would go nto
the executive office free to give the state such vgor
GUS business administration it has never yet had

popular and between this time and the meeting of the
convention that popularity will ncrease-O Oympian-

POLITICAL POT-PIE.

Il am thoroughly convinced" " said prominent Re
publican from Eastern Washington one day this week.
''that man nominated for governor on the Repub
can ticket by defeating Governor Mcbride in the next
convention will be able to carry single county In that
section of the state at the polls at the next general eec
ton Eastern Washington is almost unanimous for
railroad commission and while they have inclina
ons to do the oworship act to the governor yet
they are enthusiastically for Mcbride simply because
he has made effort along that line, and no one
governor haing from that immediate section but,
said above practically united delegation from every
county of Eastern Washington will come to the next
state convention for Henry Mcbride.
tnued ~ thoroughly convinced, however, that the
governor will not be nominated and for other
than because he will not get votes enough Eastern
Washingtons unanimity for him to the contrary not
withstanding Such being patent to my mind, it does
to the Republican party is up against hard
proposition for if Senator Turner any other prom
nent Democrat is nominated and command the
strength of his party which such Democrat would
get from the boiling Republicans in Eastern Wash
ngton fearful lest the misfortune that befel the
party in 1900 would visit it again next year. The
nomination of strong pro-railroad man for governor
would mean that even in Western Washington many
Republicans would for the Democratic nominee for
governor.
