RESPECTED HIS
HER0|SM

It Is sometimes interesting to
speculate on what might have
BEEN" especially in the matter of
electio nto public office. In this
connection the question arises.
what would the people of Washing
ton have done last fall had they
known that the late Governor Cos
grove had one foot In the grave, SO
to speak, when he was elected gov
ernor over his democratic opponent,
John Pattison.
This matter was mentioned to
Mr.. Pattison and his son Paul, who
are appearing here In court today
as counsel for the Woodmen OF the
World in a suit in Judge Sullivan's
court. In the conversation Paul
Pattison, who assisted in managing
his fathers campaign, gave some
inside facts of interest at this time.
Governor Cosgrove and my faith
err were intimate friends" said Paul
Pattison. Along toward the close
of the campaign. when the serious
condition of Mr.. Cosgrove became
known to us, we were urged to
make 1t known abroad over the
state. My father promptly frowned
down this proposition with the
statement that II he could become
governor of Washington through no
other means than by going over the
dead body of his opponent. he never
wanted to be governor. My father
believed that the general publica-
ton of Cos groves condition would
kill him.
AT our request all further efforts
to make political capital out Of his
condition was dropped"

The woman looked like a dead

There was slight audible moan.
The doomed woman's last act

A long rough box and the soil of

Fort Wright reservation, as the

WANTED TO BURY

1t was learned by The Press to-
day that, to the best recollections
of B. r. Hunt, an expressman, a
man whose description tallies close
ly to that of Clean, approached him
on the street asking him to haul a
big rough box, about six feet long.
fro mthe city to Garden Springs
that night. Though he suspected
nothing wrong at that time, he told
the man that he would not work at
night and his dealings with the
stranger were at an end.
Should this circumstance be de-
veloped in the manner expected by
the authorities, 1t will be evident
that Clein expected to do away with
Lewandoski In the city and have
him hauled to the Chinese garden
district in the dea dof night bury
him. The act of taking him to the
Fort Wright reservation was the
result of second thought on learn
ing that the expressmen would not
work in the night and that the plan
might lead to his betrayal easier
than to kill him where he did.

part Of every one, and that is a
quality we need. 1t will not long
depress our spirit Of wonderful In
itIative. A gradual recovery Will
only tend to make the future more
secure"
Thus writes John D.. Rockefeller
in the April number of The Worlds
Work, published tomorrow.
The panic Of 1893 didn't hourt
JOHN D. Rockefeller a bit, he says.
In fact, it made him all the richer.
The worse the panic, the richer he
became.
While other business enter
prises were failing on all sides,
Standard Oil, says Rockefeller,
continued to make money, during
the great panic, "as we had large
reserves of cash on account of our
conservative methods Of banking. +"
His highest pinch came in ore.
In telling of this, Rockefeller
shows how he made 1t possible for
the steel trust to be organized. His
experience in ore began in the
early '90s, when he made invest
ments in the district. The panic
forced him to loan his personal Sc
curities to save the mines.
I'VE had invested many millions
and no one wanted to go in with
us to buy stock. On the contrary,
everybody wanted to SELL"
Therefore, Rockefeller bought
in alarming quantities" paying
in cash. This had to be done to
save what he already owned.
At last he found it necessary to
transport his ore, because selling
the output of the mines was the
only way to get his money back.
Frederick T. Gates, whom Rookie.
Teller first met in connection with
Baptist missionary work, was made
president of the ore companies.

DEAL FOR
FASSETT

That the move of John F. Sand

atty race at the last moment as the
candidate of the Law Enforcement
league, was move in the interest
of Fassett. probably by r. B. Pater-
son, one of the Fassett supporters
by whom Sanders Is said to know
something about it, but Paterson
denies this. The elimination of
Sanders removes the possibility of
a third ticket.
Sanders announced that the
league had concluded not to enter
the field because of the indiffer-
ence of the ministers and stated
that the league had concluded to
support Grant Hinkle.
Frank Atkinson, president of the
Law Enforcement league, today
says the announcement of Sanders
as to the action of the league in
the mayoralty was. not the truth.
He says that Sanders desire to
withdraw was the cause of much
surprise and that 1t came too late
to select man of sufficient
strength to make the race. Mr..
Atkinson says 1t was case of
"cold feet" on the part OF Sanders,
