STILL STAY IN FEDERATED
CLUB, BUT ANY PREMATURE
FIREWORKS WILL BE HIT
WITH WET BLANKET,

The Bolo club will have to be
good, very, very good, speak when
spoken to and vote with the powers
or out they 60 from the Federated
clubs for good and for all. Any
reference to Mr.. Grant HinkIe as a
mayorality candidate will have to
be hushed up within the sacred con-
fines of the meeting until Mr.. Hin
kle is invited to appear or there
will be war.
BY a resolution last night the
Federated clubs voted shat any
delegation to the club could be
elected and the credentials barred
when a two-thirds vote of the en-
tire body so ordered. The Bolos
were not mentioned but they are
regarded as the dangerous element
in the body and with them are
classed the Inquisitors' club, which
has leaning toward N. ]. Laumer.
The Federated clubs held meet
ing last night and decided to extend
an invitation to the candidates for
the mayoralty to appear before the
club and state their views on diff
ferent subjects.
The motion was first voted down
and when it was again presented
with the provision attached that no
candidate should be endorsed until
week later, the motion carried.
This means that the club Is tied up
for two weeks before it can indorse
any one candidate. The club first
intended to rally to the support of
N. S. Pratt, but the advent of C. M.
Fassett into the race has upset all
well-laid plans. Now there is a
Pratt faction, a Fassett faction, a
Hinkle faction and a Laumer fac
ton within the body, with pluggers
for each. and when the fight starts
there will be fur flying. The club

SEMINOLE HER BEST RIEND, JUDGE HUFF
apsoial corrsspondence to

Special Correspondence to The Press
HOT SPRINGS, Ark, March g.
Seminole, a prize winning fox
hound, belonging to Judge Floyd
Huff of Grab Orchard, staggered
into her masters yard after an alb
sence of II days. The last seen of
her was when she started in a race
at Danville. KY, GOO miles away.
II was q fox crossing the 20 mile
racing course, it Is believed, which
made Seminole forget all about the
race. The other well trained dogs
kept their heads and minds stright
in front, and in time all reached
the finish mark.
This is too tame for me- was
Seminole's instant conclusion, as
she left the course and started in
chase of the fox. Two days later a
youngster in Pulaski county saw
her, little tired. but still chasing
the firing fox. Whether Seminole
ran her quarry to earth can only be
conjectured. Judge Huff believes
she did.
Between Danville and home lay

4S ELECTIONS
AND BUT ONE
SIGN Of FIGHT

Returns from the township cleo
lions yesterday are coming in SLOW
ly. but 1t seems that with few ex-
ceptions the townships have voted
dry on the saloon question. Col
bert and Denison townships are the
only ones voting to retain saloons
of those reported The notorious
East Sprague road house that was
formerly operated by Flo Darling,
will be put out of business, as OPP
portunity township, in which it is
located, has voted dry.
With the exception of a personal
encounter on Five Mile prairie,
when champions of rival candidates
came to blows, necessitating a riot
call to the sheriff's office, the first
township election in Spokane coun-
ty passed off quietly. The trouble
was due to ill feeling that had pre-
vailed for some time between
Frank Hughes and Christ Conan
son. They lined up for different
candidates and then undertook to
settle the issue by blows. In the
afternoon it began to look as if
friends of the two men might be
drawn into a general riot and a call
was sent to the sheriff's office for
aid. Tom Hiddle, the deputy sher-
i'll at the desk, suggested over the
phone that they swear in the newly
elected constable and put him to
work The expected riot, however,
did not occur.
Today Deputy Prosecutor Ernest
E. Sargent, who has charge of the
legal end of the township organi-
cation, was busy answering in
quiries as how to get the township
law in motion. There seemed to
be confusion as to who was to lead
off first and qualify so that the
oath of Office could be admins.

H|NKLE WILL
HANG AROUND

Grant Hinkle is in the race for
the mayoralty on the republican
ticket to stay and his friends re-
pudiate the rumor that he has de-
cided to withdraw and throw his
strength to Fassett. Hinkle is
making a house to house canvass
and up to the present it is stated
he has personally met 1000 voters
in the city and before the time for
the election arrives will have seen
10000 men.
AS a campaigner Hinkle is con-
sidered aggressive and there has
been no Stacking of speed since he
entered the race. He has strong
support from the Bolo club men,

bers in the city, although that
body, non-partisan in its makeup,
has not formally taken, a position
for him, but individually he has
one of the strongest bodies in the
city campaigning with him.
Hinkle has come out as opposed
to the saloon and has openly
stated that he will not seek the
saloon vote. His friends state that
the candidates who figure Hinkle
out of the race will have a big sur
prise when the votes are counted
after the primaries. a..

into account. He Is the most popular
democrat in the state, and his seat In
the Senate is in the scale. His friends,
who will be interested in the legisla-
tive tickets, will at the polls hardly
neglect the state ticket. And SO Judge
Mann. assisted by Mr.. Daniel, should
find his way under the wire an easy
winner.
There Is the usual talk about the re-
publicans and their prospects. In Vir-
ginia, North Carolina and Tennessee
that party never is, but stands always
on the eve of being, victorious. Every
ticket is 1.-The strongest ever named.
and, at last, day is seen to be break
ing
The republicans of the Old Dominion
have made good nominations ana written
a good platform. Undoubtedly, too, they
have the sympathy of the national ao-
ministration. President Taft would ike TO
see them win. A cabinet officer or Two
may take the stump for the ticket. But
possession, in politics as in law, is many
points to the good, and the democrats are
in possession. And the machinery OF
elections is in their hands.
What short of revolution, therefore,
could bring the republicans in? Ana
where are the signs of revolution? The
bitterness of strife over nominations soon
disappears in the face of party duty. The
defeated must take their medicine. Bolt
ers and poor losers alike incur heavy
penalties. There is the future always to
be reckoned with; and the recording
angels of politics are vigilant observers
and Industrious scrlbes.
