tinker's dam who went to the Chicago con-
vention just so those who did go pledged
themselves for William Howard Taft for
presidential nominee, but the idea that
these delegates were selected before they
left their homes was not at all agreeable
to them. Those who attend conventions
are desirous to have all questions come be-
fore the body and then and there thrashed
out by their spokesmen; that was apparent
from the real pleasure the delegates got
out of the local option discussion which was
sprung as surpise, which carried after a
heated debate.
Hon. Lee A. Johnson, who was mem
Der of the two past legislatures of this
state, is now a prosperous farmer OF Sun
nyside, and is already making hay while
the sun shines. He was seen on his ranch
one day this week, and as he pitched big
forks of hay here and there, and knocked
the hay seeds out of his hair, he was asked If
he intended to be a candidate for the house
of representatives to the tenth legislature
of this state. ''Well, hope not, he re-
piled Then in reply to question as to
whether he would be candidate for the
place to be vacated by the Hon. Wesley
L. Jones, he replied: "That place looks
good to me and I am of the opinion | will
never have better opportunity to go be-
fore the voters to ask them for such NOM
ination. l am inclined to think that Lee
Johnson will have to be reckoned with next
September by the other aspirants for the
nomination to the house of representatives
to congress from the third congressional
district of the state of Washington.
The first session of the Sixtieth Con-
gress of the United States is nearing it's
close and it's appropriation budget has been
fixed at something over billion dollars,
the largest by twice over of any other Con-
gress in the history of the country. The Tom
Reed Billion Dollar Congress was 'on the
tongues of the civilized world, and that
was the work of two sessions, while the
present appropriation is larger than the
two presided over by Reed, which burden
ed the tax payers with billion dollar ex-
pense account. Itseems almost miraculous
that the expense of running this govern
ment should increase so rapidly as to take
such vast sum of money as this. Reck-
oning the next session by this the present
one, Uncle Joe will get on the outside of
something like two billion dollars of Uncle
Sans dough before he retires from the
speakers chair.

The Seattle Republican. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1???-1915, 1908-05-22

The most of the delegates to the late
Republican convention at Spokane arrived
in that city the evening of the 18th, but the
steering committees had been on the ground
two days prior, and when great train load
of delegates arrived, one of the members
OF the steering committee was overheard
to say: Everything has been settled and
| think will leave for home in the morn
ing (meaning the day of the convention)
as my work is over" The steering COM
mittee may have done better for the party
than the delegates could have possibly done
by battling on the floor, but nevertheless
there were murmurs of disapproval and
charges of ring rule and the direct primary
law was given great boost.
The first political defeat King county
ever met in state politics was in Spokane
in 1894 when Andrew F. Burleigh was
pitted against George Turner on the free
silver question. After a whole days dis
cHssion of the question the convention sus-
tained Turner's contentious and Burleigh
was whipped to a final frazzle King
county had her way at every subsequent
convention, but upon returning to Spokane
she again met crushing defeat in her op-
position to the local option plank. In the
future King county had better try to steer
state conventions clear of Spokane.
One of the conspicuous opponents of the
local option plank at the late Republican
state convention at Spokane was the Hon.
F. c. jackson of the 47th representative
district, the gentleman from King county.
Mr. Jackson got serious by declaring he
favored local option, but he could not
vote for it. His eloquence fell ondeaf ears
except those of the King county delega-
ton, for in ten minutes after he made his
memorable speech the local option plank
had been adopted by the convention by
two to one vote. The Hon. Frank c. Jack
son of the 47th representative district also
demurred to the resolution to make more
specific the direct primary law in reference
to the various Republican members of the
legislature to vote for United States sena-
tor that candidate receiving the highest

From a local standpoint the late Repub-
lican state convention was even more Of
drawing card than previous state conven-
tions, and that too despite the fact that it
had less to do than any state convention
ever held in the state of Washington. The
delegates and the shouters to the Republi-
can convention spent in railroad fares,
board, lodging and incidentals, at least
$3.50, 600, and that too in the midst of a
financial furry when it's as hard to find
dollar as hens teeth Aside from the es-
sentials thousand and one little things
were showed in the faces of the delegates,
all of which was more or less bought. Will
those men suffer from that seeming eXtrava-
gance is a serious question
Until the present time all candidates for
state and county officers were nominated
by state conventions, and the state being
hopelessly Republican, the conventions of
that party were always great events and
men fought for the honor of being dele
gate to the state convention, and the steer
ing committees of the various county dele
cations were on hand three or four days
ahead fixing things, and under that system
state bosses came and went, and one politi-
cal ring warred against another with no
greater idea of reform than the spoils that
followed success.
Old timers still remember the iron hand
of Leigh Hunt as political boss of the state
and the relentless war waged against him by
George Turner, and not being able to break
it down in the Republican ranks, left the
party and crushed it with the hydraheaded
monster known as 16 to l. 1t was a crush
ing defeat and while some of those who help
ed to direct the machine still spasmodically
bob up, yet it has been hard struggle for
them to keep their heads above the water.
Conventions have long since ceased to be
forum for debate, but are simply assem-
blages to listen to the report of the ateer
ing committees.
Speaking about local option being made
a plank in the platform it was great sur
prise to the politicians from the other coun-
ties of the state to see how blind the King
county delegates were when the hand writ
ing appeared on the wall and cast 100 votes
against the measure, not showing as
much political sagacity as the Snohomish
county delegates that voted half for and
half against. The party is committed to
the measure now and the next legislature
is morally bound to pass such a bill, as well
as the governor approve it.

POLITICAL POT PIE

An aggregation, convention or assembl-
age of persons for fixed purpose always
attracts and commands much more than
mere passing consideration as well as at
tention, but political convention has them
all skinned hundred to one. Men who
are not delegates will travel hundreds of
miles to be present and witness the pro-
ceedings of a great political convention
portunity to help do the shouting. The
money spent by persons not delegates to.
neither the Republican nor the Democratic
national convention will reach beyond the
million dollar mark No explanation can
be offered for the freak, only it is so and
that's all of it.

number of votes all over the state instead
of in the representative or senatorial dis
trict in which he lived, but in not so elo-
quent terms as before. Evidently Mr..
Jackson has crouch on him because Sen
ator Ankeny is on the wane politically
speaking. He wants to return to the leg
islature and in that he also seems to be
sadly up against it, and that too is worry
ing him.

ARRESTED ON

PROMINENT MINING PROMOTER
THE SUBJECT OF SECRET IN
DfCTMENF FROM LAST GRAND
JURY-Is UNDER ARREST

w. IL. Bray, against whom secret
indictment was found by the last
grand jury. the charge being obtain
ing of money under false pretenses
from d. c. Mcdonald. In connection
with a Bray Mines Co. deal, was
placed under arrest at Battle Noun
tain Wednesday by Deputy Sheriff
A. ]. Butler. He was taken before
a justice Of the peace there and was
allowed to give bail bond In the sum
Of $500. with J. A. Blossom, a
rancher of that district, and Newton
Boyd. of Ely. as sureties.
Bray. who Is very we'll known In
this district as a mining operator and
promoter for a number OF years pre-
vious to leaving Ely. Is at present
connected with the Rockhili-Boyd
properties near Battle Mountain. =
The specific nature of the charge
against him, 80 far as the evidence
offered before the grand jury Is con-
cerned, cannot be ascertained. Mr..
Mcdonald was seen last evening by
a News reporter and an attempt to
interview him was made. but be de-
clared that he has nothing to say
about the matter at present.
It is alleged, however, that Bray,
when he organized the Bray Mines
Co., did not have proper title to the
ground. BY others 1t is asserted that
the corporation was not properly
made. At any rate. large amount
of the stock of the concern was Is
sued locally and sold at SO cents per
share. Later. because of the irreg-
ularities alleged In formation of the
company, Il was ruled of the local
stock exchange. So
When the grand jury met in May
a secret indictment was returned
against Bray for obtaining money
fraudulenly and the warrant for his
arrest placed In the hands of the
sheriff's once. His whereabouts be-
ing learned by Sheriff Davis. Deputy
Sheriff Butler left last Monday for
Battle Mountain To make the arrest.
In this he was successful. arriving
In Battle Mountain but short time
after Bray had returned from a trip
into the hills for his employers.
When placed under arrest Bray seem
ed greatly surprised. Butler states,
and repeatedly declared himself In
nocent of any wrong doing. His case
will probably be heard at the term
of diatrict court this fall.

however. tacitiy. that the ordinance
will be vetoed.
Last evening the rumor that the
ordinance was to be vetoed was
heard on the streets. By many 1t
was not believed. although nearly
every one expressed the hope that
this was true.

other ordinance, which will give the
Nevada Northern the right to keep

put on first reading, it Is expected.
No councilman would commit him
