SPOKANE DEMOCRATS
ALL IN LINE FOR WORK
Ringing Speeches and Old Time
Enthusiasm Prevailed

SPOKANE. Feb. %. The demo-
Gratis of Spokane county to the
number of 400 met today and set
a date for the county convention.
William Goodyear of Colfax, the
democratic nominee for congress III
the third district was present and
make a ringing speech, one that
should be read by every voter.
In part William Goodyear, the
chief speaker of the evening said:
Il wart to congratulate the
democrats of Spokane on their ac-
tivity and willingness to fight,
and the excellent meeting they
have tonight. l read with joy the
announcement of the recent har-
mony dinner at Davenport S
restaurant. He who can forget
the past differences is good demo-
crat and a good man. l am also
gratifed at the organization of two
splendid clubs by the local demo-
Gratis, the Young Mems Democrat
Club of Spokane County and the
club organized tonight. If there
is one thing that especially aids the
republicans it is their vigorous
system of organization, their efforts
TO keep tab on all new voters and
all new corners to the voters within
the republican ranks. Let the
democrats do likewise.
"You democrats of Spkoane are
to be congratulated on having Sc
cured the state convention for next
May, at which time you will select
the men who as delegates will go
to Denver and aid in nominating
the man who is to be the next
president of the United States, a
favorite son of no state, but tav-
orite son of all states. (Applause.)
This nation has had a taste OF
democratic principles served by
President Roosevelt, but no think
ing man will be deceived by the
serving. In the last message OF
the president we have the last serv-
ing of democratic teachings. we
should be willing to give to the
president credit for recognizing a
good thing.

PRIMARY ELECTION
LAW REMINDERS
A Exposition Of the Law for
The Benefit of Voters

Under the new primary law
nominations are to be obtained
without corruption of the voters.
No candidate is permitted to give
or promise to give any valuable
consideration to promote his nomi-
nation. The section relating to
this subject explicitly declares
that no person shall directly or
indirectly, himself or through any
other person, give. pay, expend or
contribute any money or any other
valuable thing, except foi personal
expenses.
That there may be no evasion
under the plea of personal ex-
penses," the law defines this term
as including only expenses directly
incurred and paid by a candidate
for travelling and for purposes in
cidental to travelling, and for writ
ing printing and preparing for
transmission any letter, circular or
other publication not issued at
regular intervals, to state his posi-
ton on public or other questions;
for stationery and postage, tele
graph, telephone and messenger
service; for hiring halls or rooms
for public meetings and for other
similar expenses.
The law aims to provide for pub
licity ofexpenses by declaring that
every candidate must file an item
lied statement, but the phraseology
of this section is peculiar in that it
says the statement is to be filed
not less than 10 days after the
day of holding the primary cleo
ton" The intention, of course,
is that the filing must be done
within 10 days, though not less
than" fails to convey that mean
ing.
Failure to file the statement
within the time provides" sub
jects the candidate to fine rangi ing
from SIS to $500, or to imprison-
ment not less than 10 days nor more
than six months.
The constitutionality of the new
primary law has been challenged
by some of the oldtime machine
politicians who opposed it from
the start.
One point of attack is the pro-
vision relating to the nomination Of
candidates for the judiciary. Wher
there are to be elected at any gen
eral election two or more Judges
OF the supreme court or superior
court of any county the candidate:
whose names are to be placed upor
the general election ticket are de
termined as follows:
The number of candidates
equaling the number of judicla
positions to be filed, who receive
the highest number of votes at tn
primary election, shall be candi
dates for such respective Offices
and their names shall appear OF
the general election ticket unde
the designation of such RESPECTIVE
Office"
1t is contended that the limlta
ton of candidates on the genera
election ticket to the number Q
places to be filed practically a
mounts to an election on the judge
at the primary and deprives tn
voters of any opportunity for choic
In the general elections.

FEAR HAWKEYE ELEVEN.
Coach Monilaw, of Missouri, Has a
Big Injured List.

Columbia, Mo-, Oct. 15.-Coach'
Monilaw is undoubtedly fearful of the
outcome of Saturdays game with
Iowa. According to the coach, Mis-
souri, viii have to improve greatly be-
fore Saturday to stand a chance
against Catlin's men. Monilaw is
daily impressing upon the men the
need of long and hard work, if Mis-
souri, is to have a show against the
team from the Hawkeye state.
Hard luck still seems to pursue the
Tigers. Easy Anderson, whose
ankle was just beginning to recover,
received a setback and his presence
in the lineup Saturday is extremely
doubtful. Red" Williams will hardly
play against Iowa. as he will not have
time to learn the signals.
Missouri will play on the home
grounds, and will thereby be able to
run in numerous substitutes against
the Hawkeye lineup, something
which has helped Iowa to defeat
Monilaw's charges in Iowa City the
last two years. BY constantly running
in fresh subs, Monilaw hopes to wear
out the heavy Iowa linemen, and
thereby open up holes for the Tiger
backs. For the first time in several
years, Missouri is we'll fixed in the
matter of heavy subs for the line,
and If any of the regulars are in
jured during the game holes will not
be left in the Tiger line.

Lawrence, Kan, Oct. 15.-If a cy-
clone had struck the Jayhawker squad
Wednesday afternoon, it couldn't have
played Sc great a havoc with the line
up as Coach Kennedy and Assistant
Coach Nose wrought. Nearly every
player on the team was either shifted
or retired and several new men were

ones temporarily discarded.

the way the men lined up: Randall

placing H. Wood. In the backf1eld a

little doubt in anyone's mind but what
| it will be. The men who were taken
out of the team have not necessarily
