DECLINE TO ENTER DEBATE
Republicans of Pierce County Will Not
Discuss Railway Issue.

TACOMA. Wash, oct. 2S.-The
chairman of the democratic county
campaign committee yesterday issued
a challenge to the republican cam
paign committee to take the negative
in a debate on the railroad commits
sion question at the Tacoma theater
tonight. 1t was stipulated that William
Blackman of Olympia and +. C. Robert
son of Spokane should represent the
democrats and whoever the republican
committee selected should represent
the negative.
A few hours after the challenge was
made Chairman X. w. II. Davis, OF the
republican committee, formally declin-
ed to accept it. He gave as his reason
that the commission question was not
the paramount issue. Following this
statement he declared that the re- elect
ion of Senator Foster is the leading
campaign issue in Pierce county. This
is construed BY Chairman TitlOw of the
democratic committee as a plain adj
mission of coWardiCe on the part of the
republicans and a subterfuge to evade
meeting the democratic orators.
