Why Does Perkins NEEDLE
in Washington State!

WH7HAT motive or per-
" Sonal interest has
~ Senator Perkins for
1eddIing in Washington
state politics and trying to
interfere in our senatorial
election? Is it because he
is opposed to allowing the
people of a state to indi-
cafe their preference in the
election OF United States
senator's? Is he opposed TO
the principle of the direct
primary now on trial in
this state? What excuse
has he for urging the peO-
pie of this state TO re-eIecf
Levi Ankeny, the 'irredaC-
ible minimum" of the SEM
ate, as fhe New York Posi-
called him, and "a corrupt
drunkard, who bought his
seat i'm the senate with
cash." as the Post InfeHi-
gencer has repeatedly said
of him9 Congressman Jones
of this state openly said
last week that Ankeny's
methods are notorious and
have done more to debauch
the politics of this state
than all these combined"
Why does your senator
urge the people of the state
of Washington to re-eIect
such a man?

PRESIDENT FALLIERES'
DAUGHTER is A BRIDE
Function Is Simple, but All
French People Show Warm
Interest

PARIS, Aug. 10.-As a consequence
of separation of church and state in
France and incidentally because of the
mourning of the bridegroom. the mar
riage today of Madeline Anne Marie
Fallieres, daughter of the president of
the. French republic, to John Jean Jo-
seph Edward Lanes. the presidents 8
secretary, was not attended with the
special brilliancy which one might ex-
pect would embellish the nuptials of
the daughter of the president of
France.
Nevertheless. the function was a
memorable social event, for all France.
irrespective of rank or situation in life.
showed warm. genuine interest. evil
dencing the sincere affection with which
President Fallieres is held by the peo-
pie.
The wedding was indeed striking for
its simplicity. The marriage party
drove to the city hall of the Elysee
palace ACCOMPLISHMENTS, where, in an ar
tistic bower of plants. daisies and
white hydrangeas. and in the pres
ence of Premier Clemenceau and other
members of the cabinet and cabinet
officials, they were legally united by
Mayor Roger -Allou. who graced the
occasion by dainty discourse of felic-
ftationS.

SUCCESS is PREDICTED
Herrin PUSH" in Thirty-third
Faces Defeat Despite Gold

Success for the Lincoln Roosevelt
league ticket is confidently predicted
by the men who are lighting the Herrin
push" in the thirty-first district, and
this despite the fact that John c. Lynch,
personal representative of Herrin, has
poured plenty of railroad gold into the
district to aid the cause of the machine.
The push" in the thirty first is led
by Jerry Lucey, one of the county com
mitteemen who promptly needed the
Lynch semaphore when Herrin gave
orders that the county committee must
be captured. Ever since then Lucey
has been running to railroad signals
the more readily because all his train
ing has been that way.
But the leaders of the league fight
declare that the railroad engine will
take an open switch when the ballots
are counted tonight. They give as
their reason the strong public senti-
ment against further domination of the
thirty-fr by the Southern Pacific
political bureau.
The district was won by the league
in the May primary election and the
increase of registration since then is
regarded as an augur OF another vic
tory The push" voted it's full
strength against the league in the last
primary and all its efforts, backed by
money, have failed to break the solid
front presented by the league workers.
one OF the most active workers in
the league club is Jerry O'Shea, the
contractor, known throughout the dis
trict as a consistent republican and a
man of unimpeachable character.
Other well known men on the ticket are
w. w. Symon. the ship filter; Frank J..
Weiss, the butcher; George w. VIM
mer, the engineer, and G. III. Won der
Mehden, the hotel keeper.

METHODS OF'PUSh'
DISGUST VOTERS
Intimidation of Old Women and
Approval of Traitors to Unions
AntagOnize Thirty-third

ssIntimidatfon of weak old women,
threats to ruin reputable businessmen
and open approval of union men who
have far forgotten their trust ms to
vote for Harrison Gray Otis--thcse are
not the means by which the decent
republicans of the thirty-thfrd can be
induced to support a primary ticket,
This statement was made by Bernard
j. Burns Sr., the coal merchant, living
at Bennington street, yesterday when
asked his opinion of the outcome of the
fight In the thirty third district.
Burns, who is one of the best known
and most respected citizens of the dis
trict, heads the local ticket of the Lin
coin Roosevelt league.
Paul Fratessa and his crowd of
hoodlum heelers," said Burns, contin-
uing his explanation of the situation,
have resorted to every pdsh method
to keep their control of the district
which they see slipping away from
them. They have iusulted and fright
ened an aged woman by threats
against the son who is her only sup
port; they have told another OF our
delegates that he world lose al his
business unless he retired from the
fight; but they have not been able TO
scare any of US and they have not
been able to impress the voters of the
district by thess displays.
This district is strong in republicans
who boloag to the labor unions men
in good standing with their unions,
and these men are determined to show
their cisapproval of the vote which was
cast by Fratessa- -Pidwell delegates at
Sacramento for Otis, the arch enemy
Of union labor.
Tile league appeals to this district.
It's principles are the square, and
everywhere 1 go 1 hear only one senti-
mert, namely. that the league ought to
win, and that it is time to show Fra
tessa and his crowd that the republi-
cans OF the thirty-third can not be
bunkoed any longer. We are sure to
win by handsome majority"
The league ticket in the thirty third
is a strong one 1t includes such men
as Y. Wipfler. the nurseryman, DIR e.
w Couper; James Anthony, the> brick
layer; James ]. Kenny, financial secre-
tary of the labor council; Harry Osgood,
the carpenter; Barney Farley Jr. and
Joseph Edelman, the carpenter These
men and others on the ticket have the
confidence of their neighbors, and they
have been making a clean cut fight in
Ereat contrast to the campaign waged
by the Herrin men, who have been plen-
tifully supplied with railroad money.
With republican registration of
2,132 and probable vote of 1900 the
league should win the thirty-third by a
fair majority.

WOMEN HAVE EXCITING
MOTOR CAR EXPERIENCE
Operate Car Alone on Trip
From New York to
Coast
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL

CINCINNATI, Aug. 10.-Tired out by
their trip across the mountains, which
was fraught with hair raising expert
enees, Mrs. Augusta Charles Eisen,
wife Of a millionaire mine owner, and
Miss Florence Hayes. chic, trim and
confident. arrived here today in their
automobile. having made the trip alone
all the way from New York city in 10
days Before starting south in their
machine, Mrs. Eisen related some of
the moments of excitement, in which
frightful roads, bandits and moon
sinners figured.
'On the lap from Cumberland to
wheeling we evidently surprised a
gang Of makers CT Illicit spirits and
they probably thought we were de-
tectives in the employ of revenue
agents Rifles began to bristle from
every window of a log hut we were
compelled to pass, but we made as
wide a detour as the bad road would
permit and, when the moonshiners saw
that we were more afraid of them than
they OF US, they permitted US to pass
without sending any leaden pellets our
way.
"At another place a couple OF des-
perate tEamps tried TO hold US up. but
the speed Of our car saved US. We
are going to tour Kentucky and then
start for San Francisco"

Wright Of San Francisco and went
