System This Year.

The Democratic executive commit
tee met Thursday night in the Office
Of the secretary Of State. There was
full attendance, only. a few OF the
members being absent.
Senator Tillman, as national COM
mitteeman, was present, out he took
no part in the proceedings nor had
anything to say In regard to the many
points raised as to party rules.
The committee was called to meet
especially to select nominees for presi-.
Dental electors, but various other
questions came up and were discussed.
the result being that nothing was done:
which changes the party rules. In this,
connections, however, the committees:
put itself on record as fayoring the
abolition Of the county to county can
vass in any case where candld dldates for.
State Offices have no opposition. The.
idea that meetings might be held In
each congressional district seemed to-
be favorablY considered, thought it
was quite evident that the committee
had no idea of suggesting an abolit ition
OF the primary. :2;:; s.;
Mr.. J. G.. Richards Of KershaW
brought up the question and moved
that a canvass bY the candidates bet
not made compulsory, as it is accord
ing to the rules. he said that such a
canvass was expensive to candidates,
as well as tc the people, and he didn't:
see why the people should be afflicted
Unless they wanted to be. This ideas
met With general approval and when:
it was announced it was received With
general laughter. s:ss:sS:{sss;
Finally the committee adopted Mr.
Richards suggestion. This means that:
it is the opinion OF the commit that
a county to equity canvass should be-
abandoned in cases where candidates:
have no opposition and that meetings
in congressional districts will satisfy
all the requirements Of the primary:
system. The opinion was expressed,s
but no change in the rules OF the party
was made. :, s.
It was decided that the campaign
should begin on June 21st. COM
mittee was appointed to make out the
itinerary, and that committee Will
meet here one week hence.
Z When it came to the nomination. Of
the presidential electors the following;
nominations were made for electors at;

THE GAP LEFT OPEN.

Further reconnaissance developed
the fact that west of Liuchia Tien
the Russians had no defenses. Extend
ing to the northward from Yen CHA
Ten to the west coast of the Lao
Tung peninsula, there were no de-
fenses whatever, except the force
posted at Kin Chou.
This gap in the defense was fatal
defect in the Russian position, and
when it was perceived the Japanese
extended their right to the north and
east, enveloping Kin Chou and the
Russian extreme right. The Japa-
nese left also was extended to Wang
CHA Tung, on the shore Of Talien
Wan bay, and the centre moved for
ward.
! "Wednesday morning at half-past 5
the japanese attacked Kin Chou and
for three hours they had an artillery
duel with the batteries on Nanshan
hill. The Russian gunners searched
the japanese lines with their fire, but
failed to inflict much damage.
The battle was resumed at dawn on
Thursday.
Three japanese gunboats then en-
tered Kin Chou bay and in cooperation
with the artillery on shore, shelled the
Russian positions on Nanshan hill.
A Russian gunboat in Talien Wan
bay steamed clo:e to the shore and
shelled the japanese left.
From dawn the batteries on both
sides hammered away at each uoher.
Atan early hour the japanese in fan
try moved forward and at 20 minutes
past 5 on Thursday morning they en-
tered Kin Chou, the Russians retir-
ing to the south.
The lighting continued into Thurs
day night, the japanese pressing to
the south and storming Nanshan hill.
They followed the retreating Russians
through the southern hills.
The reports received here fail to
cover the events on the Russian right.
It is probable, however, that the Rus
slams have abandoned these positions
No information is given concerning
losses; they probably were heavy on
both sides.
The Russian resistance at Narshan
hill was stubborn. The japanese
made a series Of assaults before the
Russians finally yielded the position

crystalizing among local politicians,and
the haste with which interests hitherto
classed as anti Mcbride have declared
themselves neutral in the governorship
fight has added much to the belief that
before the county meets there will be a
regular Mcbride stampede in this coun
ty.
1t would not be exactly in accordance
with facts to say that sentiment for the
governors nomination has increased in
the past few weeks. A more apt state
ment is that during the past few weeks
politicians of the county have had made
manifest to them the abiding sentiment
of the rank and file in favor of the gov
ernor, and that as the days go by they
are more and more inclined to pay heed
to it.

Another DisgruntIed One

A short time since Lew Wilmot adj
dressed an open letter to Senator Eos
ter in which he predicted an awful po-
litical calamity if Roosevelt was defeat
ed for the nomination. Now comes one
H. E. Beach, from Stevens county, and
tells what he will do if Mcbride is de-
feated in the republican nomination for
governor. The letter is dated at Scotia
and is addressed to the Spokesman-Re-
view of the sixth instant. 1t reads as
follows:
"Please allow me space in your paper
to hurrah as loud as can to Lew Will
mot, for he has hit the nail squarely on
the head While I am an old line Re
publican, having cast my maiden vote
for good old Abe in 1861 am still what
is termed an independent voter, and
I look upon Governor Mcbride as a
worthy mate to our daring president,
Theodore Roosevelt. And if this miser
able POLITICAL clique can manage to turn
down Governor Mcbride, we, the indie
pendent voters, will bury them so deep
in their political graves that even the
day OF resurrection will not raise them
up.
"Now, it ought to be patent to every
one that the hearts of the voters OF the
state are set on Mr.. Mcbride for our
next governor, and, if the politicians
turn him down, the democrats will go
in with whoop, and l, old line republi
can as am, will take the stump in
their behalf. And now, you political
tricksters, take warning Beware OF
the handwriting on the wall"

On Monday morning last pc
tition was presented to Cover
nor Mcbride numerously signed
by people living in Seattle and
Judge Bell and Assistant Prose
cutting Attorney Craven, who as
sisted in convicting, requesting
the Governor to commute the
sentence of hanging against
John Reynolds to life imprison-
ment. The case is rather pecu-
liar one. Some time since Rey-
nolds was convicted in the Su-
preme Court of King County of
killing a man. The evidence
however showed that Reynolds
intended to kill another man who
had threatened his life, and had
said he would ltili Reynolds on
sight. Reynolds lad previously
borne a good character. If the
governor does not interfere Rey-
nolds will be hung to-day inside
the walls of the penitertiary,
which will be the first to take
place under the new law.

and your catarrh will be cured.

the remarkable powers OF Hyomei to
cure catarrh. Many of the staunchest
friends of this remedy today began it's

IMPROVING THE POSTOFFICE
Uncle Sans Local Quarters Will
Be Very Handsome.

Improvements have been begun on
the building on Lee street occupied
by the postoffice, which will greatly
help the appearance and add to
the convenience of both patrons and
postmaster.
The brick front has been removed,
and will be supplanted by handsome
plate glass one with two entrances,
one at either side. The interior of
the building will be added to in APP
pearance and convenience by vain
scotlng and recalsomining and addi-
tional writing stands. 1t will compare
favorably with any postoffice building
in this section when the work is COM
pleted.
