she turned and entered the house 1t
was a quarter of an hour before she
reappeared. Joe looked up into her
face with eyes telling OF sympathy and
love, and a blush came to her cheek
as she asked:

up and put his arms around her and
kissed her for the first time.
'Then you will arrest him?"
He kissed her again and turned
away toward the lake. looking at the
paper in his hand through tears in his
eyes. He had not taken hundred
steps, however. before rifle cracked,
and he pitched forward on the grass.
His horse would have dashed off ut

AS most people have no idea how many
Scandinavians there are in this state we here
bv present some statistics CLEANED from the
census of 1900 The population OF Swedes
was near 10000, of Norwegans $4,000, of
Danes 10000, of Firms 5,OOO total OF l28,-
600. The total population in the state in
1900 was 518,000 so that nearly one-fourth
of the population at that time were Scandl-
navians or of Scandinavian descent. Since
then, however, many thousands have come
about one-third Of the population now are
Scandinavians, even with the increase OF
other nationalities and native born. Again,
doing little figuring as to the possible

Bulletin
The business men of Seattle are warming
up over the prospects of getting United
States senator, and to that end an elaborate
dinner was spread before the Piles supporters
at the Washington last Wednesday evening,
that the world might know King county was
for Piles for senator, which was all very
well as far as it went. The people OF this
city and county are all thoroughly convinced
of the fact and the committee could use the
money more advantageously by winning the
outsiders who have the votes with which
senator is elected. The following plea for
united effort is taken from the circular:
You are familiar with the humiliation and
great financial loss this county, the richest
and most populous in the state, has for many
Years experienced from the lack OF repre-
sentation in the United States senate. We
have invested $250,000 in right of way for
the Lake Washington canal The lack OF a
senator made this dead loss up to date. We
paid 100000 to secure the building Of bat
tleship in Seattle and only this week, on the
statement Of the Moran Bros. Co., we lost
another battleship contract because of the
elimination of the per cent differential.
Judging by what we were willing to pay for
the first contract we have lost 100000 by
a failure to secure this second contract, be-
cause we had no senator to look out for our
interests. We unquestionably lost 100000
Of an extra appropriation for the federal
building for the same reason. We paid $4O,-
900 of an extra appropriation for the federal
building for the same reason. We paid $4O,-
900 to secure the Magnolia Bluff army post
on the understanding that it would be a regi-
mental post Having no senator, we have
been given only one company post. We
have paid thousands of dollars to entertain
congressional delegations to try and secure
the recognition which strong voice In the
upper house of congress would command for
u.s. The Chamber of Commerce spends an
nually $4,000 to $4,000 to send delegations to
Washington to make known some of our ur-
gent needs We have been Inundated, and
made the butt Of jealousy and discrimination,
because we have had no one in the senate to
insist upon fair treatment for us. Now we
have within our easy grasp the chance of
electing a King county man to the senate.
With an united legislative delegation from
King county the only other essential is
strong display of the old Seattle spirit. When
the remainder of the state realizes that King
county is united and determined the battle
will be won Therefore we urge that you let
no other engagement interfere with your be-
ing present at this dinner and thereby help
to give an overpowering impetus to the
mOmentuous matter involved. H. G. Henry,
C. J. Smith, C. r. Conover, Committee.

POLITICAL POT=PIE


superintendency of the soldiers home at
Orting in the persons of General George W.
Tibbetts of Issaquah and Captain John lay
lor of Seattle This position pays 81 ,240 per
year, and the job lasts four years. Besides
the above salary there are quite number OF
nice things in the way of perquisites that fall
to the lot Of the superintendent and, on the
whole, it is considered very fat plum Tor
the old soldier of the great Civil War, who
by this time is becoming rather feeble for
active work or commercial enterprises. Then
there are hundreds Of other old soldiers at
the home and the superintendent has an op-
portunty to live again his old army life, and
if there is anything pleasing to the old soldier
it is to do that very thing.
General Tibbetts is the very salt OF the
earth, so far as his fellow man is concerned,
and if Governor Mead could see his way
clear to appoint him to the position he seeks,
it would give very general satisfaction, not
only in King county, but throughout the
state for he has wide circle OF friends IN
the state, owing to his activity from time
to time in Grand Army circles He served
two years ago as member OF the Eighth
legislature and made most acceptable rep
resentative and thereby made hundreds OF
new friends among the prominent politicians
of the state.
Capt. Taylor who is also an applicant for
the superintendency of the Home, IS equally
as honorable gentleman as his opponent. lie
has lived in Seattle for many years and dur
ing all that time he has been more or less
prominent in the affairs OF the city. lie
served for seven years as one OF the coum-
cilmen for this city and did so with distinc-
ton He too has been very active IN the
Grand Army circles of this city, and among
the comrades" he has host OF friends
who are not leaving stone unturned to
have him receive the appointment he seeks.
The disposition of the members of the com
ing legislature seems to lean toward the
idea of dividing the state into congressional
districts, the opposition Of the three present
congressman to the contrary notwithstand-
ing. 1t is right and proper that the state
be divided, as congress has directed, even
though it does mean the fall OF some poll
tcian, who now seems to control the sltua-
ton, so far as his own selfish interest is con
cerned. The senatorial aspirants seem to
favor the proposition and the railroad inter
est of the state also favor the move, and 1t
begins to look very much as though 1t will
be done some time during the lifetime OF the
next LEGISLATURE. which assemblies January

If the state is divided in congressional dis
tricts it is very generally conceded that the

Charlie Sweeney banqueted the Pierce
county delegates last Wednesday at the
Tacoma hotel, at which banquet Senator
Clapp and Senator Rands Of Vancouver were
present. It would thus seem that II there
is not secret understanding between
Sweeney and Foster there is a secret under
standing between Fosters supporters and
Sweeney which viii bring about the same re-
suits in the end. If the Foster forces can
be delivered to Sweeney the Pie-maker again

three present congressman will be defeated
for denomination, and should they be renom-
mated, it is very generally believed that
Congressman Jones would be overwhelm-
ingly defeated at the polls, as the commits
sion men in Eastern Washington are not
very much stuck on him. A well known com
mission man from that section told story
at Mr. Jones expense one day this week that
will to an extent bear out the above state
ment. The Railroad Commission stering
committee went to Mr. Jones at the last
state convention and asked him II he could
and would not help the commission forces
by giving them some of his Yakima strength
81 can not, was his prompt reply. My
delegation is opposed to a railroad commits
sion and I myself do not believe in in the
measure, and, if I should consider to support
commission, it would be an elective instead
Of an appointive one, and, therefore, Will
not permit my delegation to consider the
proposition for minute. The committee
cot cold comfort from Mr. Jones' but 1t by
chance got into conversation with some OF
the delegation and learned quite different
story from that already told them and to
Mr. Jones great surprise the delegation
voted solidly for the commission on the floor
of the convention 1t would thus seem that
either Mr.. Jones was not posted on his dele
cation or his standing was exceedingly poor
with them, and for that reason 1t IS pre-
dicted that if he by hook or crook gets an
other nomination In case the state is district
ed he will be defeated by an overwhelming
vote.

IF a telephone would save YOU
half dozen trips a day-it usually
saves people from three to six times
that many wouldn't it be an eco

A telephone in your house or

10 cents a day. Six trips a day
would cost you not less than ten
cents each, or a total of 60 cents.
In a month this would foot up the
enormous total of SIS counting
