county auditor, they did not exam

The republican convention, follow

it gave itself into the hands of the
Washington Water Power company

date one of the employees Of one
of the wealthiest men in Spokane,
and proprietor of a large depart
ment store. The Office of county
auditor calls for qualifications be-
yond and above those of a mere
expert accountant. The democrats
have chosen a man who has built
his own business and has uualifica-
tons other than those of a mere
adding machine. Greene was nom

Everywhere, the voting public,
long drugged with the dope of plat
itudinous principles, is awakening
to the fact that local issues depend
not on republicanism or democrat
icism, but upon government for and
by the people, as against govern
ment for and by certain powerful
interests; an idea, which in it's de-
velopment, is making the ballot
more generally representative than
ever before.-Ridgeway's. 1t might
almost be considered that the writ
