STRONG INDICATIONS FOR SUC-
CESS OF DEMOCRATIC
STATE TICKET.
Demand for the Ex- Senator's Nomn
ton Is Becoming Very Pronounced
Throughout the State.

SEATTLE. Wash, June l'.-Ihe
pronounced sentiment of opposition to
the nominees of the republican state
convention has convinced James r.
DALEY of Olympia, democratic commit
teeman from ThurstOn county, that
elected this fall Speaking of the pros
pect, he said:
everywhere | have gone | have
found the same sentiment in favor of
the democratic party and the same
spirit Of opposition to the republican
nominees. If the democrats are at all
careful in their selection of candidates
and in drafting the platform, there
should he no question of the outcome.
The entire ticket will be elected.
"Opposit;on to the republican tick
ct naturally centers about the COVER
nor's office. There is no question of
Mead's weakness. He is comparative
Iy unknown to the voters and the peo-
pie realize the manner of his nominal
ton indicates his friendship to the cor
porations.
The demand for Turner's nominal
ton for governor is general. Vo,ers
Irrespective of party are asking that
he head the democratic state ticket,
and in the event of his nomination he
would poll thousands of votes that no
other candidate could secure.
"Neither republican nor democratic
voters are inclined to believe that
Turner is the only man who can de
general that if the democrats nomin-
ate strong man of known character
and standing he Will have no trouble
in beiug elected. Turner is the first
choice ana would make the best run.
But there are several men, such as
Tolman, McCroskey and Voorhees,, who
could win easily.
= have talked a great deal to DEM
ocrats Of the southwest and have dis
of the state. l find a general senti-
ment in favor of the nomination of a
west side man for lieutenant governor
Pierce ana King county candidates
have been discussed. Van R. Pierson
ana Ernest Lister are mentioned more
than any other men from these coun-
ties. have been impressed, too, by
the talk for Henry Drum that is grow
ing general in counties of the south
west and east side. Drum is well
known throughout the state and is
particularly satisfactory in eastern
Washington.
Democrats should have a conven-
ton composed of men who have been
sent by their counties entirely unhamp-
cred. In this manner every delegate
would keep at heart the idea of NOM
mating the very best candidates and
would be free ut all times to vote his
convictions
The trouble with instructed delega-
tons is that they go into convention
fighting for one mans interests and
lase sight of the remainder of the
ticket The entire list of nominees is
chosen by trades and combinations
that oftentimes put upon the people a
poorer list of candidates than would
be chosen if the delegates were free

cursed and said he would go down and
lick the doctor. He said if that did not
do he could do still more, and at that
he went to his desk and took out his
revolver. On the way to the police
station Thompson wanted to know how
much it would cost to lick a man. I
told him it wouldn't cost him cent to
fight me- After that he walked along
peacefully"
Judge Hogue ordered officer Resting
to go to Thompson's house and get the
dog, and put it some place where it
would be provided for.

ELKS WERE SALUTED
BY CRAFT ON RIVER

In the afternoon the Elks had a high
old time Of it on the steamer Clay
ton. The party left the foot of Whit
aker street at $3.50 o'clock and return.
ed at 1880 O'Clock. During that time
a great many things were done.
1t was a congenial crowd that went
on the. trip down the river and the
visitors were highly pleased. As the
Clayton made its way towards Fort
OglethOrpe. il was kept busy answer
ing the salutes of the craft in port.
Even the locomotives and machine
shops on the water front sounded their
shril blasts of welcome. and the Elks
were recognized and saluted from the
time the gang plank was pulled in
until il was put out again.
Middleton's Band furnished the music
on the steamer and the Elks sang and
danced and threw dignity to the
strong breeze that swept over the
decks. A heavy shower fell when the
vessel turned the buoy off Tybee. but
the ardor of the Elks was not dampan-
ed IN the slightest-by the rain.
When the city was reached the Wis.
itors headed by the band, were march
ed to the Elk's quarters at Broughton
and Whitaker streets. During the
evening they were entertained with a
smoker" and plenty OF entertainment
was furnished. The opening day OF
the convention of Eiks was a success
in every way.
