Washignton, d. c., Sept. 12.-The

The attitude of the council toward
President Gompers' position in the
campaign is expressed in the report
as follows:
Eve desire to refute here the as
versions cast upon the executive
council and President Gompers, that
it is our purpose or his to dictate to
the working people of our country
how they should cast their votes in
the coming election. nor has anyone
nromised the vote of the workingmen
% any particular party. We have
nongly clearly and erll taucally, as
it was our duty. presented the situa-
ton in which the workingmen of the
country find themselves, the demands
which labor has made upon both po-
litical parties as to necessary action
which they should take, the treatment
they have received and have appealed
to the judgment and patriotism OF the
working people and the friends of
labor throughout the country, since
both political parties have spoken to
make their choice as their conscience
may dictate. We have so conducted
and propose to so conduct our course

Should the results of the Republic
can primaries be ratified at the No
vember elections, it would be wise to
lease the county government to w.
II. Abel for a term of years at a
stipulated rental. In that way he
might be induced to consent to some
slight restrictions on expense and
other matters, and the taxpayers
would know just where they were
at. AS it is, the cost to the people
of the promises of the boss made
during the primary campaign can
only be estimated.

Word comes from reliable source
that in the primary campaign W. II.
Abel bargained for another judicial
district for Chehalis county, which he
undertakes TO have created at the
next session of the legislature. The
deal was to placate Hoquiam, and it
is said that Attorney Frank L. Nor

From the s. F. Examiner Of April 8

From the s. +. Examiner Of April 8
Friends of Walter Magee and his
wife, who was Miss Flora Deane. are
busily specializing on what will be the
outcome of an arrangement that has
existed between them for some time.
The arrangement became generally
known by the fact that for several days
Mrs. Magee has been living at the
Fairmont and in that time her husband
has carefully avoided the hotel.
According to their friends, it Is some
months since the Walter Magees have
lived together. Mrs. Magee has been
living with her grandmother. Mrs
wenbau, in Santa Barbara. The one
child Of the Magees has been with its
mother.
In this time Walter Magee has re-
NAMED in San Francisco aud he has
been one of the most familiar figures
where things are gayest.
Although Mrs. Walter Magee arrived
at the Fairmont several days ago she
has not been joined in her visit by her
husband, in fact, he has been con.
spicuous by his absence. Mrs. Magee,
however, is stall friendly with the rest
of the Magee family. A few nights ago
she diued with the Fred Magees at the
Fairmont.
Society gossips say that the Magee
family feels that Mrs. Walter Magee is
not to blame for refusing to live with
her husband aud that. in fact. she has
their entire sympathy in her troubles.
Mrs. Walter Magee was formerly the
beautiful Miss Flora Deane and her
sister. Misc Ethel Deane. is now con-
sidered one of the prettiest and dainti.
est girls in the smart set. Mrs. Walter
Magee is at present in the city owing to
the illness of her mother. Mrs. Shaw.
who is a patient in a private sani-
tarium.
In an interview late last evening Mrs.
Walter Magee was asked if the report
was true hat she was going to begin
divorce proceedings.
There has been nothing done about
it," she replied.
"Is it not true that you are separated
at PRESENT." she was asked.
Eyes, we are" she replied. "but it il
a private matter"
Walter Magee is the son of the late
Thomas Magee, the pioneer real estate
agent. His brothers. William A.,
Thomas and Frederick E. Magee. now
conduct the business on Geary street.
which was established by their father.
