Judge Turner at the close of his SEN
atorial term was regarded by President
Roosevelt as good enough to serve on
the Alaska boundary commission with
such distinguished statesmen as Elihu

at the beginning of this year President
Roosevelt appointed Judge Turner the
only delegate from the Pacific coast
to the International Congress of Jurists
that met at ST. Louis last month. If
George Turner as member of the
United States senate vilified the presi-l
dent, as the Wilson literary bureau is
endeavoring to make the republican
voters of this state believe, it is hardly
likely that Roosevelt would have so

$4,000 on road work to the highest
bidders without once advertising for
