The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1903-11-02

in 1904 is not SO bright as it might be,
but many things may happen within
the next twelve months to make a
democratic victory possible If the
country is to undergo another period
of hard times, it is perhaps just as
we'll that a republican administration
should be in power to get the credit
of it. The democrats have had all
of that sort of glory they want. The
republican party had taste Of it in
1873 and as a result the democrats
elected Samuel J. Tilden to the presi-
dency in 1876 by an overwhelming
popular majority and a decided ma
jority of the electoral colleg, although
they were thimblerigged out Of their
victory by an eight to seven commits
sion. The democrats caught the
odium of hard times in 1893 and be-
cause of it lost the presidency in 1896
Now if we are to have another siege
of hard times the republican party is
welcome to shoulder the blame, as 1t
will mean a decided democratic victory
| in 1908.
Meanwhile we shall all do our best
to enjoy life and eat three square
meals a day regardless of what party
| is in power.
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1903-11-02
THE PLAN OF THE LOBBY.

1t now seems to be the plan Of the
railroad lobby to select as the repub-
lican candidate for governor next
year some eastern Washington man
who has never committed himself on
the question of railway commission,
but who can be depended on to
serve the railroads after he has fooled
the farmers into voting for him in
the belief that he will be true to their
interests. 1t is the hope of the lobby
that in this way the republicans of
eastern Washington may be induced
to desert Mcbride and allow the rail-
roads to name their man. AS a part
of the plan to undermine the support
of Mcbride, nearly every county
known to be favorable to his candi-
dacy will be encouraged to bring out
a candidate of it's own for governor.
The lobby will then combine all it's
strength from the western counties to
OverWhelm the advocates of a railway
commission and to nominate some
pliable candidate from the eligibles Of
eastern Washington.
AS the forces of reform are not any
too strong in the republican party of
the state, it would not be surprising
if the railroads should be able to carry
out their program with ease. How
ever, the democratic party will have
to be reckoned with. If Mcbride is re-
pudiated by his party the democrats
will name George Turner or some
other staunch champion of the people
for governor and his election will be
almost certain to follow. The people
of this state still have some regard
for manhood, moral courage and hon
eSty and they will not blndly sacri-
flee the interests of the commonwealth
in order to vote the ticket of their
party That the voters of this state
have great independence was dem
onstrated in 1900 when the democratic
nominee for governor was elected de-
spite a republican majority for Nc
kinley of 1900. History is likely to
repeat itself next year

COTTERILL VS.. ROBERTS.

When Mr.. Roberts, the treasurer OF
the United States, was talking before
the Bankers convention in San Fran
cisco, he used the following language:
This golden flood is without peer in
its magnitude. 1t has brought to ouT
people and our government treasures
richer than any before recorded in
human annals. 1t has covered the
