or demerits of the different methods
now being pursued by the senatorial
candidates, but am stating facts as
they exist Foster has lost the loyal
support of his delegation by lack of
liberality in regard to the necessary
expenses of campaign. Sweeny is a
g-hearted, generous fellow who con-
tributes with an equally good grace
to a church or a campaign fund, and
his personality is a big point in his
favor.
The Sweeny invasion of the Puget
Sound country has awakened renewed
interest as to the ultimate action of
the King county delegation. Mr.. Piles
the Seattle candidate, has a smaller
numerical strength than that of Fos-
ter but in the main, it is much more
loyal, and at least a portion of it will
be voting for Piles when the last ballot
is taken. AS a matter of fact, this
staying ito the last ditch is already
causing some uneasiness among the
King county men. who are most
anxious for a senator from that coun-

GAVE AN ELABORATE BANQUET
TO MANY TACOMA PoLITIC-
IANS AND CITIZENS.
Evervthino Was Talked Over the
Board Except PoIities-Spokane
Made Hit.

TACOMA. Wash, Dec. 23.-Charles
Sweeny, the Spokane candidate for the
United States senate, has invaded the
home of the enemy with a vengeance.
He not only came over the mountains
to the home of his leading antagonist.
Senator Foster, and extended the
glad hand but he actually rounded up
the entire Foster delegation from
Pierce county and gave them a swell
banquet at the Tacoma hotel last
evening. Newspaper accounts of the
affair this morning state that every
thing but politics was discussed at
the banquet, but from the tone OF
some of the speeches that were made
some of the banquetters drifted peril
ously close to the tabooed subject.
The admissions of possible support
for Sweeny were not openly made at
the banquet, but at the close num-
Der of the members spoke very high
ly of the candidate from Spokane.
Senator Lincoln Davis, one Of the
heavyweights of the Pierce county
delegation, in the course Of his re-
marks at the banquet. said:' "Of
course, as a member of the Pierce
county delegation, it would be i'm
possible, even were 1 so disposed, to
vote for any other candidate so long
as there was the slightest show TO re-
elect Senator Foster. If we should be
so unfortunate, however, as to fail in
our efforts to elect the man whom we
think is entitled to a reelection and
in case there is no general uprising of
the citizens demanding that I, myself,
be a candidate, should be glad indeed
to contribute in my feeble way to the
success of Mr.. Sweeny.'
With full appreciation of the pos
sibilities of the Davis candidacy, Mr..
Sweeny stated that whenever that
general uprising of citizens took place
he would do what he could to aid the
movement. The meeting was attended
by Senators w. E. Bronson, Lincoln
Davis, c. D. Stewart, S. M. LeCrone;
Representatives Fred Eidemiller, Da-
vid Levin. Jesse Poyus, DR.. ]. H.

others in attendance were J. M. Ash
ton, Jesse H. Read, L. J. Pentecost, B.
w. Coiner, George B. Handle and Sen
ator E. M. Rands, of Vancouver.
1t is, of course, pretty well under
stood that United States senators are
not elected at banquets, but the gen.
uine spirit of good-fellowship which
Sweeny injected into the front ranks
of the Foster support undoubtedly
has considerable significance. There
IS no questioning the fact that Sweeny
has made a good impression with the
followers of the Foster flag, and if
that banner is hauled down the Spo-
kane man is almost certain to secure
new candidate.
Foster Boom FIattening.
There is no Disgusting the fact that
the Foster boom is "wobbly." The
tereios of suspicion, distrust and even
hatred have honeycombed the struct-
ure until it only requires a few good,
hard jolts to tumble it in ruins. The
senator is accused by members of his
own delegation of being too much
averse to contributing to campaign
expenses to be a successful factor in
a race with such men as Sweeny, Piles,
Furth or John L. Wilson. AS one of
his adherents remarked at the close
of the festivities last night, There
will be good skating in HI before the
senator would ever put up for a spread
such as we just enjoyed
This spirit may be all wrong, and it
is all right for the SEN
ator to keep his purse strings tightly
drawn, but a previous experience
should have taught him that a sue
cessful senatorial campaign cannot be
conducted on such lines. If old Gin
cinnatus had lived in the state of
he could have continued
his blowing until the end of time
without the slightest danger of being
called away to take the United States
1t does not follow that a man must
spend money in large quantities, but
politics in this state has reached a
stage where something beside the
glad hand" is not only desirable, but
necessary. Seattle has realized this
fact and has raised a very comfortable
sum for the Piles campaign. Tacoma
has also contributed to the expenses
of the Foster campaign, but her work
in this direction has been hampered
by the economical tendencies Of the
candidate himself.
Senator's Tight Cigar Case.
Not only has Senator Foster failed
to go over and banquet the Spokane
but he has also neglected
to buy any cigars for his own delega-

McClelland and London Campbell have
completed their training and appear
to be in fine fettle for their six
round bout tonight. The match has
attracted more attention in sporting
circles than any pugilistic event that
has been pulled off hereabouts in a
long time. This is due largely to the
fact that McClelland and Campbell
have been rivals for years and their
meeting is expected to result in
lively battle.
