clans in connection with the next gubernatoral nomi-

A P. Sawyer private secretary to Senator John L.
Wilson, while he was in the United States senate and
subsequently confidential about Mr.. Wilson's big
newspaper plant, has just returned from the East,
whittier he went in the interest of the paper Being alb
sent from the state for month he when by
the Piemaker had nothing to say the political sit

other words there politics to be in at the present
time, and will not be for nearly eight months and I
do not advocate this crossing the bridge before you get
to it. Municipal politics l know absolutely nothing
about. When the next Republican municipal conven-
ton makes its nomination the PostIntellgencer will
do it's part toward eectng the ticket. Neither the
Post-Intelligencer its management has any candi-
date for either mayor any other municipal or county
office, but will stand pat for those candidates selected
by the respective conventions There is entirely too
much turkey in sight to discuss politics these days and

that it will may, is absolutely certain that Camp

trary Notwithstanding However, Mayor Campbell,
with the aid of Others may be able to have number

who would only support Foster half-heartedly, with
the hope of opportunity presenting itself when they
could honoraby break away from him.

The Pie-maker has heard before that Cosgrove would
not entertain the talk of him running for governor
single minute and preferred for his friends to not dis
it, it mi ght embarrassment some
way another. But despite the fact that he is not
candidate and will not allow the of his name, the
fact still remains that he is very popular in this
state and the rank and file of the voters of the state
anxious to support him for high political honors
Up and down the streets of Seattle he greeted
all sides by political admirers well social friends
and would grasp his hands before others
would rush up and greet him though hero from
some battle field had just returned Such general
warmth of friendship the part of ones fellow citizen

There certainly is not much doing in political circles
at present. and owing to the fact that most everybody

ilton the United States senatorial situation has not
been discussed very extensively Senator Foster is in
Washington City, and his fight is to extent sleep

be with his family Thanksgiving, and Sam Piles has
not yet returned from Kentucky whittier he went in
quest of better health The above being a fact, the
Pemakers statement to the effect that there is moth
ing doing in political circles is than verified.

the appointment of Hon. w. A. Garlic, but Congress-

M. Stewart and though Mr. Care be the best man in
the whole county for the place. yet in the history of
the political affairs of the country the rule has been
that the Congressman name the postmaster of his i'm

Speaking about the Pierce county legislative delega-

From the district represented by the late lamented

In the Puyaup district which has been represented
by Cary Stewart another fight brewing. The leaders
of this battle will be Stewart and Palmhamus. The
two leaders do not dffere much to United States
senatorial timber, for it they both for Foster
or for any one else that the county decides sup
portng but they political rivals and the is
always jealous of the others political success Both
of them have quite few dollars at their command
and if reports be true both fond of getting their
"bte" or cut" out of any swag that might be float
ing around, but, be that as it will may they are
going to make the fight of their lives capture the
nomination for state senator at the hands of the Re-
publican district convention to be held next year.
If the White River Journal has suitable candidate
for county auditor it would do well him and
get him acquainted with the politicians That section
OF the county thus far has announced candidate for
any county office and if it will out strong for the
nomination of county auditor there will be nothing
more to it. 1t is hoped that the next county auditor
and his chief deputy will do than spend two
thirds of their time at baseball games and remembering
that the White River Valley furnished King county
with an auditor four years ago that attended to
his business and made his chief deputy do the same
thing, though such auditor came from the Fusion
ranks the Pie-maker is of the opinion that the Re
publicans might be able to do well and trot out a
good man. Anything would be an improvement over
the present layout but if the Valley boys go for the
nomination they will advocate wholesoul fellow who
will attend to the duties of the office and not to the
baseball games and horse of the day.

In naming candidates for the various offices same

deceive the average political wiseacre he will not have
any opposition in the county convention.

LIEN ON
NEW REPUBLIC.
This Government Will Take Charge of Foreign
Affairs, Sanitary Matters and Panama Debt

Washington, Novem Der o..
If the present plans of the adj
ministration leaders do not mis-
carry the United States will have
a lien on the new republic of
Panama very much like that
which it has upon Cuba. It is
part of the plan now under dis
Cussion to have the new republic
EN- body in it's constitution certain
provisions of the same character
as the Plat amendment which
was embodied in the Cuban con.
stitution, and under which this
government, exercising sort of
protectorate, shall have supervis-
ion of the foreign affairs, the san
itary regulations and the debt of
the baby republic. The Plat
am endment will be the model. It's
provisions or such similar ones
as may suit the peculiar condition
in Panama, will form the basis of
the first treaty to be negotiated
between this government and
Panama.
Ia all probability one of it's
most important features will be
the fortification, either by the
United States or by Panama un-
der its supervision, of the cities
of Panama and Colon, the termi-
nal of the canal. When the canal
treaty with Columbia was under
considerable element in congress
insisted that it should contain
provision which the United States
should have the power to fortify
these cities.
Columbia objected to these pro-
visions, but it is anticipated that
there will be but little trouble in
inducing the new republic to
agree to them. Indeed it is said

by Georgia Southern,

Hall & Wimber1y of Macon, as
attorneys for the Georgia South
ern and Florida Railway, have
obtained from Judge Mitchell, at
Thomasville, a temporary res
training order preventing the
transfer of the Triton, Thomas
vile and Gulf railroad to the At
lantic and Birmingham.
The Georgia Southern and
Florida franchise rights obtained
Is per cent of the stock of the
Triton, Thomasville and Gulf.
The Georgia Southern and Flor
ida claims that the right of pre-
ferred purchase went with this
stock and that it should have had
an opportunity to purchase the
remainder of the stock before it
was offered elsewhere.
This opportunity, it claims, was
not given and on this ground asks
the injunction. The motion will
be argued November 81 before
Judge Mitchell.
George Dole Wad1ey, Preston
Arkwright, Martin Amorous and
other Atlantic and Birmingham
and Triton, Townsville & Gulf
officials were at Thomasville to
arrange the transfer. The res
training order was a complete
surprise to them. Both sides
express confidence as to the
final outcome.

Crowds of eager spectators,

BUREAU REPORT ON

Washington, Nov. IA bu1le-
tin issued by the census bureau
today on cotton ginning from the
growth of the present year up to
October Is, places the amount at
3,839,627 commercial bales, as
against 5,935, 1872 bales ginned up
to the same date last year.
The complete returns on pro-
duction for 1902 showed that So. 5
per cent. of the total crop had
been ginned prior to October 18,
of that year, but the percentage
of the ginnage prior to October
10 of this year cannot be known
until the final report for the year
is made. Meantime, two reports
will be submitted, on November
Is and December 13. The sta
tistics for the present year we're
collected by 631 local agents, who
found that 27,723 ginneries had
been operated prior to October

Death Of Son Has Proved A
Great Shock To The
Turkish Ruler.

Paris, Nov. 9.-It is reported
that the sultan of Turkey is very
i'll with cerebral anemia, accom-
panied by ha1ucinations.
A short time ago the su1tan's
son died and the father was pros
trated with grief. It is believed
that his present condition was
the direct result of the shock
which attended the passing
away of the child, which was the
sultan's favorite.
