Some $4,000 More Than Last Year
List by Towns, Villages, and
Cities

The county taxes for the year, 1907,
are some $3O,OO0 more than last year.
This difference is due almost entirely
to the fact that last year the state tax
and part of the school tax was remitt-
ed; for the reason that the treasury at
Madison had plenty of funds.
The total taxes for this county last
year were $92,184.74' This year they
total 1928, ,O27.63.
Following is the appo1tionment by

Political Pot-Pie


Indirectly it has been announced that
former Governor Henry G. Mcbride would
be candidate before the Republican pri-
maries for the gJlbernatorial nomination to
succeed Governor Albert E. Meade. Some
weeks ago the Pie-maker made bold to an
nounce that Henry Mcbride would not enter
the gubernatoral contest and even yet he
does not believe that he will do so, and for
that belief the Pie-maker thought he had
good and sufficient reasons to substantlate
the che would not" allegation. The Pie
maker truly believes, so far as Governor Nc
Bride is personally concerned, for public
office he is dead one, but you can not tell
what a dead hen may do, and therefore Hen
ry Mcbride, despite the predictions OF the
Pie-maker may not only become primary
candidate, but may be nominated and elect
ed governor of the state Of Washington
Well see.
Should Mr. Mcbride enter the guberna
toriaI race here is a strange concldent con-
nected with his campaign The men who are
hAOAAN
than d. B. Crocker, the collector OF internal
revenue at Tacoma, George Baker, deputy
T. S. marshal; at Spokane City, George Ste
venson, the we'll known Ankeny lobbyist;
State Senator Tom Sumner, and many other
lifelong Anlzeny supporters, all OF whom
fought him the hardest when he was really
feasible candidate for governor. All OF
the above named gentlemen were at both the
Spokane and North Yakima fairs boosting
and roofing for Mcbride like the very old
deuce Now you talk of being paralyzed,
but in the past few mild stroges
that you may have experienced was
not more than cold rlgor IN
comparison to the announcement that the
above named gentlement are working for
Mcbride to be the next governor OF the
State Crocker, more bold than the others
of the gang, publicly stated the other day
that, 'Ewhile am not sure who will be the
Republican nominee for governor, still | do
not hesitate to say neither Mead nor Cos
grove shall never be- That is a whole lot
for one man to take on his shoulders IN
State where there are easily a million votes.
The presumption is that Mr. Crocker is speak
ing through Senator Ankeny's barrel and
when Crocker gives the signal the silver will
fly fast and furious, which will, as in the
past, deefat the will Of the voters and nomi-
nate a Crocker-Baker gubernatorial tool
Gov Mead and the most of his appointees
are in Eastern Washington this week doing
yoeman service toward moulding public SEN
