A DREAM OF SOME DEMOCRATS

In this wheels within wheels cam
|paign of the democracy a new in
|fiuence" is asserting itself. Political
|gossips now tell Of the concerted
scheme on the part OF the Turner
cohorts Of the Third senatorial and
Second representative districts to
capture the entire city OF Spokane
and Its patronage at the coming city
election. A dog-eared note book OF
one who has been reading the signs
|of the times reveals the latest UNI
dercurrent of ambition of some Of
|the Turner clique and explains why
vote trading is creeping into legis-
|lative candidates.. 1t had been sup
posed that all legislative vote trad
hing had it's original impulse in the
|plan to return George Turner to the
United States senate. But gossip says
that there is a wheel within that
wheel.
In short the story is this: N. g.

senate. He has made pretensions as

oil and has aspirations to the may

democrats of the Third senatorial

pressive with which the earth was

mated"
The birthmark of expediency and
principle thus declared are still dis
cernible not only In the platforms of
the respective parties, but also in
their nominations and in the manage

FALSE TESTIMONY BEFORE TIE TAXPAYER

When the Spokesman Review or
any of the touters Of the Turner
scheme give out what purport to be
facts. the public can rely on the pro-
position that the information is either
false in its entirety or false in some
very pertinent detail. The Spokes-
man-Review is the source of infor-
nation for many Of the statements
used on the stump by Turnerite ora
tors, whose words are those of shall
low students or of those who deliber-
ately spread falsehoods. One can
pardon an orator IL he accepts in good
faith certain statements made In the
railroad paper. but no one can excuse
that paper for the elaboration with
which it fools both it's speakers and
Its general readers.

speech of Stanton Warburton, ex-
railroad lobbyist and chief UNDER

"Warbie" made a great point about

to create sentiment.
In two campaigns the democratic
party had demanded the free and un-
limited coinage Of silver, but this
year as a matter Of expediency 1t
did not reafIlrm, retract or apologize
for it's previous silver planks. and
when the the distinguished candidate
telegraphed the convention to the ef-
feet that he guessed republican leg
islation would have to stand. and
that his labers in behalf Of silver
would now cease, the party after a
weary night in elaboration telegraph
ed as follows:
1.-The platform adopted by this con-
vention Is silent on the monetary
standard because it is not regarded
by us as a possible issue in this cam
paign, and only campaign issues were
mentioned in the platform.
Thus the convention, by a majority
of four to one. informed their caud-
idate. and through their candidate
advised the country, that the plat
form would have no binding effect
upon anyone after election. An am
bilious, self-respected young man
can Ill afford to ally himself with a
party organized on the solemnly
avowed principle of expediency. and
which has never demonstrated its
consistency in anything except its
adherence to it's resolution of 1882.
