organs that Stevenson had an inter
view with George Turner at the lat
ter's law office in Spokane on the 9th
day of July. Well. what of it? Turner
is lawyer and Stevenson may have
gotten into some scrape that necessi-
tated his employing a lawyer Many
a good lawyer has been called upon to
defend men whose reputation was not
as white as snow and no Opprobrium
was east upon the lawyer for attend
ing to his line of business.
That George Turner is true to the
cause of the people is proven by the
fact that every railroad organ in the
state is vilifying him and doing its ut
most to defeat him for governor. If
Turner could be used by the railroads.
j. D. Farrell, Charley Chamberlain, Ed
Cowen. VIII Thompson. B. s. Grosscup
Walter Christian, Link Davis, Senator
Stansell and all the other railroad
henchmen and hirelings would be
tumbllng over themselves III tnelr Gag
erneSs to elect him. On the contrary.
all of these mercenary politicians are
working night and day to elect Albert
E. Mead. who was named for governor
by the republican state convention at
the dictation of Farrell and Grosscup.
The people of this state have dis
cernment enough to know who is their
friend and advocate and the service of
George Turner in their behalf from the
time of the constitutional convention
of 1889 to the present time has been so
conspicuous that the Wayfaring man
though Il fool can make no mistake in
reading the record. Turner stands for
popular rights. Mead stands for cor
pOration rule. 1t is for the people to
decide on the Stn day of November
whether they will rule themselves or
be sadded and brdIed and mounted
by corpora ton bosses in boots and
spurs.

M'BRIDE WON'T STULTIFY HIM
SELF.

Governor Mcbride will leave in day
or two for the st. Louis exposition, and
IL is announced that he will probably
not return to the state until near cleo
ton day. Chairman Palmer and other
machine politicians have made per
sistent efforts to induce Governor Nc
Bride to take the stump for the rail-
road state ticket or even to give out
some expression pledging it MS sup
port. but their entreatieS have been in
vain. The governor will not stultify
himself. The only authentic statement
from the governor since the Tacoma
convention was given out on May 18th,
when he said to a correspondent of the
Spokane Spokesman-ReV
The time has not arrived for me to
make any public statement of my at
titude. | shall not do so until after
"A full discussion of state politics with
my friends, and l shall probably make
"A trip to eastern Washington and con-
suit friends there. -"
whatever | do | shall do nothing
inconsistent with the position l have
hitherto taken on the railroad issue
nor retract one word that l have ever
said about the corrupt political meth
DDS of the railroad lobby"
Since that significant statement was
given out the governor mas met many
of his friends from eastern Washing
ton, and as he has remained silent, the
inference is that they advised him not
to support Boss Farrelrs ticket. Fully
one third of the republican voters of
the state will follow the governors ex-
ample. While few of them will go to
st. Louis thousands of them will vote
for George Turner as the best way of
administering a severe rebuke to the
corrupt lobby that has secured con-
troll of the republican organization in
this state.

Every housekeeper should know
that If they will buy Defiance Cold

will save not only time, because it
never sticks to the iron, but because
each package contains 16 Ozone full
pound-while all other Cold Water
Starches are put up in A-pound pack

cents. Then again because Defiance
Starch Is free from all injurious chem
icals. II your grocer tries to sell you a

a stock on hand which he wishes to
dispose Of before he puts in Defiance.
He knows that Defiance Starch has

Successful Women Inventors.

Besides the inventions brought out
by women under their own names in

dozens of successful inventions patent
