has stood by while Braytonism throtted represent
tative government and set up its corrupt and cor
rupting oligarchica government in its stead; he
has looked on while Braytonsm fched the right
of home rule from Providence and Newport; he
has refused TO heed the petition of his own town
of Westerly when it asked that he apply TO the
supreme court for an opinion that might have
saved it from the loss of one representative which
Braytonism wanted and did give to the COM
munity of convicts at Cranston-al this he has
done and why'
Because his hunger for place outweighed his
sincerity of principle and his courage of convic-
ton. 1t was but two days before the Republican
state convention he lauded Brayton when he de-
clared "the boss stands by those who stand by
him."
In the light of his later lucubrations can anyone
doubt that this praise of the boss was prompted
by desire to secure denomination at the con-
vention but two days off?
1t was just seven days before tho people will
record their verdict at the polls that George II.
Utter confessed he had been partly false" to his
party by remaining quiet in the face of Brayton-
ism's outrages and when he pledged himself to un-
dertake the removal of the blot Braytonism had
put upon the good name of the state.
Will any intelligent citizen doubt that this
pledge was prompted not by sincere desire to
rid Rhode Island of the malign affction of Bray
tonsm, but to catch the votes of the thoughtless?
Indeed, it may we'll be doubted whether in the
whole commonwealth a hundred men be
found today who do not regard George H. Utter
as unworthy to be entrusted with any further
commission from the people.
He has been false to the people, false to his
party and false to himself. His unreasonng arubi-
ton for public office has rendered him weak ond
wabby time-server and trimmer, and that
they know him as he is the people of Rhode Island
will thrust him out of an office in which he has
confessed he has been false to them and disloyal
to the state.

ADJUSTMENTS
Making a Decided Hit.

That ever popular play, 1.-The Lady
of Lyons" was given a most credit
able presentation at the Keylor Grand
by the Mack Swain company Saturday
and Sunday nights WREN packed
houses were delighted by the excellent
manner in which the play was pre-
sented Every part was well acted and
the work of Frank Tanning, leading
man, and Cora King Swain, leading
lady, was especially worthy Of the
highest praise. The Mack Swain COM
pany is increasing in popularity as the
theater-going people Of Walla Walla
learn to appreciate it's merits, and
there is good reason for believing that
the two weeks remaining of the COM
pany's engagement here will prove
highly profitable to the management
and most enjoyable to the patrons of
the theater. "The Silver Dagger" a
comedy drama, will be the bill to-
night.

Another Appeal to be Made TO
County Commissioners
PETITIONS ARE BEING CIRCULATED
JOINT MEETING OF WALLA WAL.
LA COMMISSIONERS WILL BE
HELD AT FREEWATER.

Petitions were prepared Saturday
and are being circulated among farm
ers between Walla Walla and the state
line asking the county commissioners
to macadamize the middle Milton road
from the city limits to the state line.
The petitions are being numerously
signed and will be filed with the COM
missioners at the April meeting. The
road is about four and half miles in
length and, following along the south
side of the military reservation, takes
a southerly course and passes through
one of the most populous districts in
the Walla Walla valley.
The proposed meeting between the
Umatilla county commissioners and the
Walla Wafla board will probably be
held at Freewater some time the latter
part of the week. Commissioner Nc
Cav said today that he had not been
informed as to the exact date, but that
a day will be set shortly for holding
the meeting. The two boards will dis
cuss the proposition of building road
connecting Walla Walla with Free
water or Milton.

Wilson, It is Reported, is WORKING

TO DISRUPT THE SOUTH ORGANIZATION
FORMER SENATOR HAS HIS EYES

John L. Wilson is trying to make
good the threat he issued immediately
to break up the south district combina :
ton. The fight his managers are max
ing against Dan r. Abraham, present
county commissioner, is not directed
so much at that official as it is toward
the republican leaders in the district
he represents, says the Seattle Times.
The perennial candidate never was
popular in the south district and he
found during the last senatorial con-
test that he was still less of favorite.
He had tried to drive a hard bargain
during the county election offering Lou
Smith up for sacrifice if his demands

trict. There never was any chance for
a second choice candidate, for when
ever the delegation had a chance it
convinced itself again that no one but

LANDED IN A SAND Pile UNINJUpED
ON SATURDAY
NIGHTS TRAIN TO PASco
HAD A BAD SCARE.

w. T. Shaughnessey. soldier of the
Fourteenth Cavalry. discharged Fri
day, created intense excitement on the
w. & c. r. train bound from Walla
Walla to Pasco Saturday night by
pitching headlong from the train as it
was bowling aleng at a 35-mile-an-
hour clip near Climax station. Save
for losing his hat and receiving a
nasty cut on the wrist, Shaughnessey
was uninjured by his sudden flight
through space and he boarded a freight
that was following the passenger train
east
Shaughnessey thought it the proper
thing to celebrate his departure with
few drinks. and when he boarded the
train Saturday night he was in a mel
low mood. In addition to pocketful
of money and a ticket to New York he
had dozen or SO bottles of Cyrus
Noble to help pass the time away.
Shaughnessey was just drunk enough
to be happy and on the down trip kept
passing from one car to another. He
was warned several times that he
might take header off the train
Soon after leaving Climax and while
the train was speeding along at a 35-
mile-an- hour gait Shaughnessey start
ed from the passenger coach to the
by this time and as sharp curve was
struck the drunken soldier, with a wild
shrek, went sailing through the dark
ness. His sudden flight was witnessed
by another passenger and the train
was brought to a stop and a party Of
railroad men and passengers went back
with lanterns searching for the soldier,
expecting to find him a dead man.
Could Not Find Him.
The train slowly followed up the
party for three miles. but as no sign of
Shaughnessey was found the search
was abandoned and the train went on
to Lamar station. AS there was no
surgeon on the train Emmett Hennes-
sey, the undertaken, a passenger on the
train was finally induced to abandon a
trip to Spokane and accompany the
section crew at Lamar back over the
road in search of the soldier. The
crew manned a hand car and the trip
through Egyptian darkness was start
ed. Every foot of the roadway was
searched for over two hours without
result. Finally the agent at Lamar in
formed the searching party that

a badly cut wrist, had boarded the

district representative but as soon as
,ne attorney left the capital the rest of
the delegation brought him into line
again.
When Sweeny and Ankeny threw
their strength to Piles and assured
MIN of election, the Piles managers
sent word of it's accomplishment and
asked Wilson whether he cared to
make the election more certain. Will
son was at that time negotiating with
senator Foster, of Tacoma, to throw
MS strength to the Tacoma man and
defeat the King county candidate. He
flew into a violent rage which ended
IN doubling his feeling toward the
south district because DR.. J. ]. Smith
headed the delegation that notified the
perennial candidate of Piles success.
Put Out of Business.
After he had returned to Seattle,
Wilson declared that he would put
the south district out of business. Then
he trotted off to Europe to get line
on the determination business over
there, and has recently been taking
a post graduate course, while 'Rastus,
who waited upon Wilson in Olympia.
was carrying out instructions here.
This bit of ancient history uncovers
reasons for the fight that has been
started by the Wilson organ in the
south district 1t has taken up the
struggle of w. A. earle, late aspirant
for postmaster at Seattle, against
Dan Abraham Garlic lives in George
town again, and the Wilson influence
is fomenting trouble in that part of
the country.
The eagerness of the PERENNIAL candi-
date to break up the south district is
due to motives of revenge and ambition
for the future. The district usually
comes in unanimous for whatever can
didate is to be presented or issue sup
ported. To a man with a city frame
up a solid south district is an awk-
ward condition to run up against at
the last minute. In fight for con-
troll of King county or just control
