Votes viii Give Him the Nomination
W |. JONES HAS BIG LEAD OVER LEVI ANKENY
While the Returns are Still Very Meage Reports from Over the State Show
That He will Win Out by Thousands of Votes

Following are the republican nomi-
nations for state and county Offices as
nearly accurate and complete as re-
turns at the present time will allow
US to make them:
Representative in Congress, Miles
Poindexter.
Governor, Samuel G. Cosgrove.
Lieut.. Governor, Chas. E. Coon.

Although the official returns OF Tues
days primary are coming in very slow,
enough have been received to make it
practically certain that Samuel G. Cos
grove OF Pomeroy will be the republican
nominee for governor, unless the miss
ing precincts show big gain for Mead
and Mcbride, who were at last reports
running neck and neck about 5000
votes behind the grand old man"
Cosgrove has a big lead on first and
second choice votes in both the first
and second districts, in which all the
cities west of the Cascades are stu
ated. He is also we'll in advance all
over the eastern part Of the state, out
side OF Spokane, which city gives Nc
Bride 40 per cent Of the first choice
votes.
Miles Poindexter received the nomi-
nation for representative in congress,
although for some time it looked doubt
full. All late returns have given Mr..
Poindexter big leads so that now he
has the winning votes for a certainty.
Wesley L. Jones has been chosen
as republican nominee for U. S. sena-
tor over Levi Ankeny. Reports which
have come in from all over the state
show that he will have plurality run
ming into the thousands.
For lieutenant governor the race is
between Charles E. Coon and M. E.
Hay. While at present the former is
slightly in the lead, they are running
close enough together to leave the re-
suit in doubt.
Sam H. Nichols is the nominee foI
secretary Of state, beyond any possible
question.
The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1908-09-11

Erwin and Lewis are running SC
close together that it will be impossi-
Bile to name the nominee for state
treasurer with any degree OF accuracy
until complete returns are totalled.
For auditor the race is between
Clausen and Cromwell, with the former
somewhat the favorite.
Returns on the Office of attorney
general are very meagre and the run
ming is close between four candidates.
1t is practically certain that Ross is
the nominee for commissioner of pub
lie lands although Navarro, Chelan's S
candidate, gave him a good rub.
Dewey, being the only candidate,
Of course received all the votes for su-
perintendent Of public instruction.
We have no report at all concerning
the Office OF insurance commissioner.
On the non-partisan judiciary ticket
it is practically certain that Stephen J
Chadwick, Milo A Root and H D
Crow are nominated. Nomination for
this Office is equivalent to election.
On the democratic ticket, meagre
returns show A J Splawn Of North Yak
ina and John Pattison of Colfax run
ming close in this district, with Black
man leading on the west side. A c
Edwards of Spokane leads for lieuten-
ant governor in this district, George F
Cotterill of Seattle appears to be far in
the lead OF Goldman of Columbia county
for the Endorsement for United States
senator.
Sufficient returns are not in for US
to say who is nominated for state senator.
IF Holm was nominated for repres-
entative by a small majority.
In the race for the supe.ior court
judgeship VIM A Grimshaw wins out
over Frank Reeves by a handsome
majority, although Reeves polled one
more vote than his opponent in this
precinct.
Del Mccoy, our local candidate for
sheriff, made a strong fight, but was
defeated for the nomination by Fergu-
son of Wenatchee.
Following is the official count of the
votes of Leavenworth precinct:

ENDORSE STEWART
Express Approval of His Atti-
tude in Demanding Guar
antee From Chicago.

Wool growers who have remained in
Salt Lake since the adjournment Of
the recent meeting of western sheep
men, at which the national wool stor-
age movement was indorsed, have ex-
pressed approval of the attitude of Q.
b. Stewart, secretary of the Utah wool
growers, in opposing the naming of any
city as the storage center until bank
ers and business men in the place to be
selected give written pledges that the
promises of their representatives at the
meeting will be fulfilled.
Mr.. Stewart is not opposed to any
city and he is willing to see Chicago
made the storage center, if Chicago
offer the best inducements in a bust
ness-like way.
AS the wool men of the state have
great confidence in Mr.. Stewart, it is
said that they will insist upon his be-
ing named as the Utah commissioner
10 assist in arranging the plan for the
storage movement, and in selecting the
storage point
4 morning newspaper yesterday said
editOrially that The Herald had all
nounced that Mr.. Stewart had been
''ditched" and that the Chicago prop
osition had been turned down"
The Herald did not make the alleged
statements nor use the alleged Ian
guage attributed to it.
The Herald stated that President
Gooding of the National Wool Grow
ers' association had failed to make Mr.
Stewart a member of the committee
Of six which will have charge of the
storage movement, after having pub
licly promised TO name Mr.. Stewart
The Herald also said that while the
general sentiment was in favor of Chi
cago as the national storage point, that
city would not be named unless the
bankers and business men there pledge
themselves TO carry out the promises
of their representative at the Salt Lake
meeting.

Reeves Accuses GrimsbaW Support
Package on the Subject.

my brother Reeves. This Is the
first speech l have made during this
campaign and it shall be my last.
For l have already let it be known
how / feel about public demonstra-
tions and solicitations in a cam.

the few weeks and shall during the
weeks of the campaign enc
deavor to personally meet the voters
of the county with whom have not
heretofore been acquainted In order
that they may have the opportunity
of considering my qualifications.
Then turning his attention to the
suggestions of partisanship made by
Mr.. Reeves, Grimshaw said: THAT It
did not lie well In the mouth OF his
opponent to accuse his friends OF
partisanship politics. The fact that
early in the campaign much to the
establishment of the voters Of the
county Judge Steiner elected as .
democratic judge, came out IN un-
qualified praise and endorsement OF
Mr.. Reeves. About the same time
Judge Neal, formerly democratic
Judge of this district came forth
with an open letter ardently sup
porting Mr. Reeves. A little bit lat
err, the chairman of the democratic
central committee, appeared at one
of Mr.. Reeves meetings at the Lewis

endorsing Mr.. Reeves. just recent-

BIG CIRCUS
IS HERE
BARNUM & BAILEY ARRIVED
THIS AFTERNOON.-ANOTHER
ONE TONIGHT.

Sincerely and enthusiastically
welcomed by hordes of the ubiQui-
tous small boy ana an army 0f
grown-ups, the Barnum. & Bailey
Circus, which came to town early
this morning and established it's tenn
porary home, paraded through. the
city this afternoon and furnished joy
and happiness orthe populace. The
streets through which the process
sion passed were alive with human
ity, and there was another jam at
the circus grounds this afternoon.
Those of mature age, who, it is
said, always become young again at
the renewal of sights and sounds of
the great epochal periOd-the first
circus-lined the curbs and crowded
over one another to get nearer the
caravansary as it approached.
The real rush took place along the
line of march in the downtown dis
trict. The little ones were carried
along and given the place of honor,
SO they could witness the unfolding
Gus weather, and the parade left the
grounds on schedule time.
The procession OF floats, animals,
characters and clowns took forty
minutes to pass a given point. The
wagon cages contained the animals
from the menageries, and, unlike the
usual parade, the animals were to
be seen by the crowd in their cor
rails. The triumphal cars, with gold
leaf trimmings, sparkled in the
bright sunlight. Eight hundred
men and women appeared either on
horseback or on the cars and floats
attired in costumes representing
characters such as Egyptians, Phoe-
nicians, and Sabacians.
Among the features Of the parade
were a troupe of trumpeters, and
number of chariots of allegorical sig
nificance highly embellished in goi il
relief, body of knights in tourna-
ment array, a herd of thirty odd ele-
plants, caravan of as many
camels, followed by two tandem
teams of horses driven by smartly-
gowned equestrians.
The menagerie contains many rarely
interesting features, chief among the
many are the three monstrous gi-
RATES., which in point of attractive
ness shared honors with Baby Bunt-
ing, the little Baby Elephant.
The opening number described the
Grand Tournament" glorious, il
Illuminated page from ancient history,
introducing four hundred historical
characters correctly costumed, rep
resenting Egyptians, Phoenicians,
Africans, Arabians, Abyssinians, to-
gether with mounted guards. heralds,
characters, knights, mobiles, high
priests, foot-soliiers, archers, war-
riors, dancing girls, slaves, servitocs,
horses, sacred beasts, trained animals
and triumphal cars and floats. This
brilliantly iridescent pageant was
quickly followed by three herds of
trained elephants, performing impos-
sible figures in rings, which in turn
gave way to the beautiful horses.
Then came the clowns, and such a
shout of hilarious merriment greesed
the white-faced funmakers that they
redoubled their efforts to delight the
crowds.
There will be last performance
! tonight s O'Clock.
