The land bill has received favorable
consideration in the senate and will
come up in the house next week, where
it will pass by a large majority. In
the late stages of the consideration OF
the bill by the senate committee, its
strongest opponents agreed that the
land business should be entirely seq
regated from the Office of the state
superintendent of public instruction,
but insisted that the land commission
er should be appointed by the board
and subject to the supervisory power
thereof. The first point was not o n
coded, but there was no objection to
making the latter more definite in the
bill and II was therefore SO amended,
upon the motion Of Senator Hansen OF
Carbon county.

REV. IRVINE QUITS.

The people will be glad to hear that
the unseemly wrangle started by the
Rev. Irvine against Bishop Talbot has
been stopped. They have confidence
in the bishop and believe there was no
reason for the second opening of the
case. In his withdrawal. the Rev. Ir,
vine shows his real character. His
parting shot is this:
Never have there been more delib,
crate lying. improper influence intrigue,
or vile use of money and power
than have been called upon in this
case to shield wrong-doing and to hide
the light from the public"
He charges that money II influence
we're used by Bishop Talbot to block
his efforts to bring the case before an
ecclesiastical court. In telling of his
decision to proceed no further he says:
Il do not know what else can be
done with Bishop Talbot, who has
brought such a scandal upon the
church and such a scandal upon others,
but to forgive him, and | herewith
freely and without reservation offer
him full and free pardon as if we were
standing on the last great day before
the judgment throne of Jesus Christ,
our eternal God"
Could anything be more contempt
ible than that? According to his state
ment, the bishop is the embodiment OF
all that is %perfidious. but not being
able to down him he has decided to
forgive him. Having the hot end OF
the poker, Rev. Irvine has let go.

THE COLLEGE BILL.

FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 3, 1905.
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1905-04-26

the complete control of the city adj
ministration by the Spokesman-Re-
view-Acuff party is bound to cause
dissensions-to bring about it's own
punishment.
Men who have never before voted
the democratic ticket are turning to
Daggett in the belief that no rule can
be worse than the crooked, grating
regime of the Washington Water
Power company, the telephone COM
pany and the tall tower tribe.
This band of corruptionists have
already bought and paid for every
council vote they expect, have made
sure of Acuff as their tool and are
paying for the hot air, buncombe
the swill barrel into which the COR
poration gang expect to dump the
vote they can not control and in this
manner defeat Daggett.
Lilienthals candidacy Is being
gleefully pushed by the Spokesman
Review-Acuff people in the hope that
his wide open" talk and his preten-
tious platform drivel will attract
votes which they know could not be
secured for Acuff.
Lilienthal is thus being used as a
stalking horse, stool pigeon for the
Spokesman eview-Acuff tribe. Know
ing full well he can not be elected
under any circumstances, Lilienthal
is staying in the race for the pur-
pose of trying to defeat Daggett and
elect Acuff
The tall tower organs are saying
two words for Llienthal to one
spoken for their own candidate, Acuff,
yet they know Lilienthal can not be
elected If they thought he had a
ghost of a show they would turn upon
him and rend him as they have other
unfortunates who have trusted to
them.
The entire hope Of the Spokesman
Review-Acuff gang is placed on Lii
enthaI drawing enough votes away
from Daggett to make the election
of Acuff a certainty. Lilienthal is
lending himself to this plot. He is
asking his friends to cast vote for
Acuff by voting for him. He is be-
traying the men who are friendly to
him into the hands of the Spokesman
Review-Acuff corporation gang.
Such are the treacherous methods
Of the corporation gang. Alert. cum
ming, INSCRIPTIONS, possessed of UNI
limited sums of money with which
to buy and to corrupt to dam and
to stife, to betray and to destroy,
this monstrous machine of corpora
tions Is moving along toward its goal,
a deadly Minotaur to all that is good
and honest and clean in city adj
ministration-an enslaver of men-a
violator of laws-a traducer of pub
lie morality.
Fight it! Defeat It at the polls!
And remember that a vote for Lii
ienthal is a vote for Acuff!

Ask of ]. Il. ONO, of DR.. Allen, of
host of others how they were knitted
in that convention after depending
upon solemn promises. Even Ed
Sanders can tell you things of how
he was politically murdered by the
corporation bandits.
And now scan the list of men who
are working as managers of the
Spokesman eview-Acuff campaign,
Do you find there any of the old
workers. the old trusted leaders of
republcanism?
Instead you find new machine, q
powerful machine, being built up by
Charles p. Lund, dictated by the
Spokesman-Review and the corpora
lions.
Where is d. r. Ham, w. s. McCrea
Horace kimball, Fred Dudley, the
Crows and a host of other regular
workers?
They have all been passed up by
Lund at the orders of the Spokesman
Review, the Washington Water Power
company and the Pacific States Tele-
phone company. Not man of them
is taking part in the campaign work
Yet the Spokesman-Revie is tell
ing you how harmony in the demo-
cratic ranks has fed before a ma
chine. Floyd Daggett was the unani-
nous choice of the peoples conven-
ton. There was no other candidate
w. Fl. Acuff was nominated by the
Ennly q m A
by means of trickery, by the slaugh-
ter of unsuspecting stalwart republic
cans, by the sacrifice of honest indi-
vidual candidates.
Which shows more the marks of
the machine rule?
And the treacherous work of the
corporation machine has not ceased.
Aside from the temerarious pledges
by Acuff to the churches. to the sa-
loon element and to the athletic clubs
of the city. all of which are contra
dictory and insincere. other honest
candidates on the socalled republican
ticket are being knitted.
Wiscomb for city treasurer and
Michaels for city comptroller are be-
ing traded in order to bring about the
election of certain councilmen who
will go into the council wearing the
collars of the Washington Water
Power company and the telephone
company.
Such men as Jack Snyder, the no.
torious whereas" candidate. owned
and controlled by he telephone COM
pany; J. S. Phillips. the Washington
Water Power company's employee, and
other councilmanic candidates to
whom attention will be paid later, are
to be elected at the sacrifice even of
the comptroller and treasurer.
And Charlie Lund and his corpora
tion campaign committee dare not
deny this statement.

blooded manipulation to bring about

C0WLES' EXCAVATION
ENDANCERS. PROPERTY

The caving of a pavement, the
bursting of a sewer--and the splen-
did new home of the Spokane ANA
teur Athletic club will be in danger
of being undermined and of COLLAPSE
ing.
1t is result of another of the
schemes of w. H. Cowles to save
money by sacrificing the interests of
his neighbors.
The excavation work for the new
Cowles building at Main avenue and
Post street, was stopped went it was
learned that the unions would not
work on the building. Later it was
found that some one had blundered
in attempting to dig down through
the made ground, instead of sinking
cassions.
The stopping of the work on the big
hole resulted in the undermining of
the asphalt pavement on Post street
and on Main avenue.
This pavement is slowly sinking
and Owner Cowles is trying every
trick to keep from paying thousands
of dollars to the city for damage
done.
II is one of the reasons that the
tall tower owner is working frantical-
ly to elect w. Fl. Acuff and bring
about the pledged reappointment of
Fossil Weymouth and others of his
creatures.
With Acuff as mayor, the cheeky
proposition of Owner Cowles to have

Treachery, dishonesty, violated
pledges and dark betrayals.
This is what has marked the prog
ress of the Spokesman-Review- Acuff
party since it's inception.
On every side the pathway of this
Shiny, creeping corporation serpent
Is strewn with the political corpses
of stalwart, loyal republicans who
have been sacrificed to the upbuild-
ing of a mighty corporation machine
At every crooked turn lie the betray-
ed, the victims of treachery and
broken promises
From the beginning the Spokesman
Review-AcuH movement has been
builded through false statements,
blackmail and political skulduggery.
The very first telegram exchanged
with Acuff, then in California, was a
tissue of lies-a forgery Of sigma
lures.
Go ask w. s. McCrea who signed
that telegram asking Acuff to run for
office. Ask George Crane--ask A. w.
Doland, If they signed it.
There was a meeting of Spokane
shippers called for the purpose Of
counteracting the vast harm done by
Durhamism in the fight for railroad
commission. Jobbers, whose business
interests were threatened by the out
come of demagogic Durhamism, were
there to devise some means of pre-
venting impending ruin.
Not satisfied with the great harm
done thfoGgh forcing railroad COM
mission on the unwilling business
men of Spokane, the Spokesman-R Re-
view cunningly sought to distract at
tention by proposing to the business
men that they support w. II. Acuff
for mayor.
No chances Of a refusal were taken
Those business men were asked IF
THEY WOULD SUPPORT ACUTE
IN CASE HE WAS NOMINATED.
When a man said he would If the
man was named. the name of that
man was put down on n slip of paper
Then that telegram, pledging men
to something they had not said or
requested. was sent. 1t was the first
piece Of buncoism.
You are certainly familiar with the
treachery OF that Spokesman-Revie
Acuff convention. Do you know all
the deceit, all the knavery and all the
crookedness practiced before and
since?
Let those who suffered tell you how
they were double crossed.

trayed.

would go through.
1t would save Cowles thousands of
dollars, which he would force the city
to pay.
Underneath the sinking pavement
is large sewer. This sewer is two
thirds full at all times.
When the pavement sinks further
the sewer will be crushed in.
All the water and refuse carried
by the sewer will rush out into the
excavation, seep through the made
ground to the foundations of the ath-
letic building.
Once that ground begins to under
mine and sink, the new club building
will go with it.
The city engineers office has sent
repeated warnings to the board of
public works.
Nothing has been done as Owner
Cowles is fighting to delay matters
until he can elect Acuff and shoulder
the damages on to the city.
Already the car tracks are threat
ened. Soon the entire frontage will
be made unsafe by the constant
crumbling of the banks.
Any citizen can see for himself
what is to happen.
When that sewer breaks the entire
made ground will be washed away.
Who will pay the damages if w. II.
