The Seattle Republican., 1908-04-03

Colonel George B. Lamping, Candidate
for State Insurance Commissioner.
No opposition to E. w. Ross, who halls
from Cowlitz county, has developed as yet,
and it looks asif he was certain of second
term as state land commissioner. Mr.
Ross like Mr.. Claussen, is taking no part
in any combination that is being formed,
but is simply moving on in the even tenor
of his way.
Col George B. Lamping, who will be a
candidate for insurance commissioner,
halls from King county and is quite popu-
lar at home. His opponent, the Hon. John
Henry Schively, also halls from King
county and is likewise popular, and a bat
tie royal will be the result of Greek meet
ing Geek in this instance. But Lamping
has a brilliant military record to fall back
on. and he thinks best of all the support of
the big Seattle morning paper.
1t will be observed that in this prospec-
tive ticket no mention is made of superin-
tendent of public instruction. Since the
death of Superintendent Bryan it will de-
volve on the Governor to name his success
sor and whoever that is, will doubtless be
the most favorable candidate for the nom
nation. It would seem to the Pie-maker
that if the Governor would name super
intendent from some county which has no
representative on the above ticket it would
add another strong spoke in his political
wheel.
DR.. S. F. Wiltsie, who for the past eight
years has been deputy coroner of King
county, thus serving through two admins
trations, will ask the Republicans of the
county for the nomination of coroner, and
in doing so believes his record for the past
eight years as deputy will be one of the
strongest reasons for his nomination.
During the time he has been deputy he has
made hundreds of official calls taking him
in every section Of the county and where
ever he has been he has always made many
friends. AS a physician and surgeon he
is very popular in the city and his friends
believe that he will, the numerous candi-
dates to the contrary Notwithstanding, be
able to get twice as many votes in the city
as any two Of the other candidates.
DR.. Wiltsie has never aspired to office hold
ing, and is a candidate for the coronershlp
because of his long experience with the
office.

POLITICAL POT PIE

Governor, 1st choice = Albert Il.
Mead, Whatcom.
Governor, (2nd choice) )-Samuel q.
Cosgrove, Garfield.
Lieutenant nt-Govenor-John D. Atk-
insos, Chelan.
Secretary of State-I. M. Howell,
Pierce.
State Treasurer E. K. Erwin,
Spokane.
Attorney General = R. H. Kipp,
Colfax.
State Auditor - G. w. Claussen,
Kitsap.
State Land Commissioner E. w.
Ross, Cowlitz.
Insurance Commissioner = George
B. Lamping, King.
The above ticket has been suggested to
the Pie-maker for the consideration OF his
readers. While there may be some seem
ing inconsistencies in it, yet on the whole
it has considerable merit John u. Atkln-
son. who is an avowed gubernatorlal can
didate, would probably not think Of becom-
ing a candidate for lieutenant-governor,
and vet if he would, his nomination would
be almost certain.
AS has been previously said in these
columns. whatever strength Governor
Mead NAV have, will be for first choice,
and if he is not nominated by that, he will
be down and out. Mead, however, has
more strength than his opponents are will
ing to give him credit for, and 1t he does
not win the nomination, he will come
awfully near it. That Sam Cosgrove has
a great deal of first choice strength no one
but fool will deny, and that he will bag

more and more apparent every day: He
will not only get the vote that goes for
Governor Mead, but will get the state vote
that goes for Mcbride; all of which means
that. Mr.. Cosgrove has, after all, the best
show to be the next governor Of this state.
IN. Howell, who has entered the race
for secretary of state, and who halls from
Pierce county, where he has twice been
elected county auditor, is not unmlndful OF
the fact that his opponent, the Hon. Sam H.
Nichols, is very popular man and will be
hard to beat, but he has received sufficient
amount of encouragement to make him feel
justified in risking the $50 register fee on
it.
R. H. Kipp, who is seeking the nomina-
lion for attorney general, halls from Whit
man county, and is highly spoken OF all
over Cn0 SCdC0. OIIOulU IS SIICC1 CIIO Co1ll-
bination mentioned above, he would be
tower of strength to it, and he at least be
a sure winner
E. K. Erwin, who seeks the nomination
for state treasurer, halls from Spokane,
and while he does not carry the vote of the
county in his pocket, yet he has never ap-
pealed to the voters of the county for their
suffrage but what he got it. That he
would be strong spoke in the above
wheel is plain to be seen.
c. w. Claussen, who was elected state
auditor four years ago, halls from Kitsap
county. So far as going into any combine
he would not do So but he has no opposi-
ton, and is therefore only used to fill out
the ticket Mr.. Claussen is as good as

The republican caucus held in the

elected We're: F. T. Campbell, E. H.

name of Hon. Wesley Jones was the
popular man with the majority in
the county for election as senator.

Walter, by advice of Mr. Pusher
bought a ticket to Cleveland. There was
resident agent in this city, and a de-
pository of books published by the firm.
As Walter would be unable to carry with
him as large a supply Of books as he
needed, he was authorized to send to the
Cleveland agency when he got out, and
the books would be sent him by express.
