A Quarrel

A prominent citizen residing near

Seattle Times Says He Has Begun
Fight Against Ankeny
EX-SENATOR SAYS He IS OUT OF POLITICS
POLITICAL STORY
PRINTED IN SOUND NEWS
PAPER OF INTEREST HERE.

According to the Seattle Times John
L. Wilson Of Seattle will be a candi-
date for United States senator, to
succeed Senator Ankeny. The follow
ing article taken from the Times will
prove interesting to people who like
/ to read about politics:
John L. Wilson has begun his cam
paign to succeed Levi Ankeny as
United States senator. The opening
gun was touched off by Mr.. Wilson in
speech in Tacoma last evening, the
flash and noise being directly inflicted
upon the members of the chamber of
commerce and their guests at banquet
assembled, while the reverberations
are now supposed to be echoing to the
farthest corners of the state.
The opening of the campaign is dis
tinctly Wilsonian, the manner of the
announcement of his candidacy being
identical with that adopted by Mr.
Wilson in 1902 and again in 1904. Mr.
Wilson, having thrice failed in his
vaulting ambition to return to the
senate, although an active candidate
at the legislative sessions of 1899
1908 and 1905, again announces that he
is not a candidate for the senate or
for any other office, and again pledges
himself to take a continuous interest
in the political affairs Of the common
wealth" The most striking manifesta-
tons of this continuous interest on
the part of Mr.. Wilson are readily re-
called:

three most important bills proposed
by the last congress:
Railroad Rates.
The railroad rate bill requires all
interstate carriers to make through
routes and reasonable joint rates. 1t
makes Oil pipe line companies, express
companies and sleeping car companies
common carriers and subject to the
law. Railroads are forbidden from en-
gaging in any other business than
| transportation. Pipe lines are exclud-
ed from the prohibition.
While permitting railways to use
private freight cars, it provides that
all incidental charges arising from re-
| frigerating and other services be in
| corporated in the transportation
charge.
1t requires publication of all rates,
fares or charges, and forbids changes
save on 80 days notice. Jurisdiction
is conferred upon the insterstate COM
merce commission to hear complaints
of unjust and unreasonable rates, and
to fix rates that are just and reasona-
BILE.
Rebates and other discriminatory
practices are forbidden and subject to
penalties.
A limited review of orders or re-
quirements of the commission may be
made by the courts, but no injunction,
interlocutory order, or decree sus-
pending or restraining the enforce
ment of an order of the commission
shall be granted except after not less
than five days notice to the commits
sion.
Free transportation is limited to
certain specified persons.
The interstate commerce commission
is enlarged to seven members, whose
compensation is fixed at $4,000 an
nually-
Beef.
Before any cattle, sheep, swine Or
goats are taken into any establishment
for slaughtering and preparation for
market they must be examined while
alive for any signs of disease, and if
such are found they are to be slaugh-
tered separately and the carcasses
given a special examination
All carcasses are to be carefully in
spected, and if sound, healthful and fit
for human food, will be tagged Gin
spected and passed. and if not, will
be tagged inspected and condemned"
and in the latter case must be de-
stroyed in the presence of the govern
ment inspector.
After this first inspection another
inspection of carcasses or parts of car
casses may be had to see if the meat

FRUIT AT THE BREAKFAST TABLE
Nature Provides its remedies which, if used Judi
ciously insure perfect health at all times

Aside from the pleasure of eating
seasonable fruits before beginning the
first meal of the day, this custom has
undoubtedly arisen from the we'll
known fact that nearly all fruit and
more particularly plums and PRUNES
contain natural laxative principles
which act directly on the stomach and
bowels.
Constipation, that dread and trou-
blesome complaint which is undoubt-
edly the basic cause of nine-tenths
of the dyspepsia, Indigestion, bilious
ness, etc, So prevalent among our
people today, and. which if neglected
surely leads to more complicated and
serious organic diseases, can surely
be prevented, and when not too far
advanced can be absolutely cured by
the judicious use of the modern lax

Record of Wilson.

In 1899, by throwing his entire
strength in the legislature to Addi-
son G. Foster of Pierce county as
against Thomas J. Humes of King.
In 1903, by giving his influence with
the legislature to Levi Ankeny of
Wslla Walla as against Harold Pres
ton of King.
In 1905, by forcing all known Wilson
votes in the legislature to stand by
him to the last, then when Samuel H.
Piles of King was assured of election,
by attempting to- break up the COM
bination by again delivering his votes
to Addison G. Foster of Pierce.
In 1906, by helping to defeat the re-
publican candidate for mayor of Seat
tie, and by open and persistent threats
that unless permitted to dictate all
Legislative nominations he will do all
in his power to defeat the candidate of
the republican party.
Withdrawals of the Past.
In 1899 Wilson publicly announced
bis permanent retirement from poll
tics. This announcement was made
at Olympia Immediately following the
election of Foster
In 1902 Wilson assembled the frag-
ments of his discredited machine at
Spokane and announced that he would
never again be a candidate for public
office
In 1904 Wilson publicly proclaimed
in Seattle that he was forever done
with office seeking and would not
again be a candidate.
Yet the fact remains that in every
election subsequent to each of these
announcements Wilson was an active
candidate for the United States SEN
ate; the further fact, of chiefly local
significance, is that he has regularly
opposed and done all that he could to
defeat the candidates Endorsed and
supported by the people of King
county.
Program Of Wilson.
Wilson's system, as proven by the
records. has been to proclaim his dis
interested, unselfish and purely patri-
otto concern for the welfare of his
party and the state Insisting that he
had no selfish purpose to serve he has
demanded the right to censor the list
of Legislative nominees and to dictate
federal appointments-purely in the
interests of good citizenship.
1t is more than a coincidence that
in those districts where Wilson's dis
interested concern over the purity of
the legislative ticket has been mani
tested, candidates have been elected
who have voted for Wilson's return to
the senate. 1t is a matter of peculiarly
impressive memory that those candi-
dates for public place supported by
Wilson-always in the interest of good
government-have been men either
loyal in the past to Wilson or pros
pectively energetic in forcing the

Governor Of Tennessee.

The selection of a governor for the
state is an important undertaking.
Tennessee is big commonwealth with
an honorable history. It's governors
have been such men as John Sewer,
William Carroll, Samuel Houston, Jas.
X. Polk, William Trousdale, Andrew
Johnson, Isham G. Harris, William G.
Brownlow, James D. Porter, Albert S.
Marks, William b. Bate, Robert L.
Taylor, Peter Turney and Benton Nc
Millin. This list embraces none but
honorable men-men who served the
state not only as governors, but as con-
gressmen, and two of them as presi.
dents of the United States. 1t Is a
proud record and an honorable history.
1t is incumbent on the people of this
proud commonwealth to select as their
next governor man who will do full
justice to the traditions of Tennessee.
There are now three candidates before
the people, Malcolm r. Patterson,
John T. Bond and John I. Cox. In
making up their minds, the people
must consider several things. They
must first consider whether any one of
these candidates should be eliminated,
because he has no chance to secure the
democratic nomination. No matter
how honorable a gentleman an aspirant
may be, if he is leading a forlorn hope,
there is but one little need tc consider
HIM. Then there is the question of
honesty and good character. 1t would
be blight upon the state to select as q
successor of the great Tennesseans
whom we have named, a man entirely
unfit for their company. Lastly, there
is question Of ability and inclination
to carry out policy of value to the
state.

He has performed the duties of his Of
