ay announced his candidacy for the

day announced his candidacy for the
Republican nomination for city treas.
urer. At first Col. Prosser was not
disposed to consider becoming a can
didate, but the members of the vet.
Grams organization and his other
friends urged him strongly to ac-
cept their support, says the Seattle
Post-Intelligencer.
The Union Veterans Union is the
political organization that is affiliat-
ed with the G.. A. r. and kindred or
ders. 1t claims strength of 5000
votes in Seattle.
In 1880, Col. Prosser came to Sc
attic, though good part of the in
tervening time since then has been
spent in eastern Washington. He
founded the town of Prosser, and lat
er was auditor of Yakima county and
mayor of North Yakima. He took a
prominent part in the framing of the
constitution of the state of Washing
ton, as a member of the 1889 con-
vention, and was named chairman of
the first commission that laid out
the harbor lines for Seattle and the
other large ports of the state He
was member of the recent board
of visitors to the West Point military
academy, appointed by the president,
and is president of the Mems club of
Trinity Parish church.
Col. Prosser crossed the plains in
1856, but returned to take part in
the civil war, from which he emerg-
ed with his present title, after engag-
ing in some of the notable battles.
He served in congress from Tennes-
see, was postmaster of Nashville.
and for ten years was a member of
the centennial commission which SUI
pervised the Philadelphia exposition,
the first great exhibition given in
America.
The letter of the Union Veterans
Union recited that at a regular meet
ing of the union it was unanimously
resolved to request Col. Prosser to
become candidate for city treasur-
err, and the support of the members
of the union was pledged to him.
Col. Prosser replied that he regarded
it a moral obligation which rests on
every man to assume and discharge
every public duty which may be laid
upon him, and that he felt it duty
to accept the assurances of the union
and to become a candidate for city
treasurer. "If elected" he wrote,
81 shall endeavor to conserve dill
gently and faithfully the interests in
trusted to my care"

Since the Sunnyside train has drop
