VERY NEAT
GAME BY
MACHINE
Want County Convention to
Concede Senatorship to
West Side.

There is neat little game Of
politics being engineered for the re-
publican county convention, on
June 25.
The WiIso crowd, which means
teh Senator Jones following, has
planned to have the republican
county convention of Poindexter's
home city 90 on record conceding
the senatorship to a man from the
west side.
This means that PoindeXter's
home city would indirectly turn
him down and snub his candidacy
by making 1t appear that the peo-
pie of Spokane county did not want
Poindexter.
In all probability this game will
be carried through, unless the vot-
ers, the common people, get to-
gether and fight the gang, AL
most all of the men who play the
game of politics are with the regu-
lar or standpat wing of the party
and against the progressive fight
that PoindeXter has waged against
Joe Cannon and Cannonism. The
people. however, are with PoindeX-
ter and will demonstrate this at the
primaries, unless the gang throws
so much dust in their eyes as to
becloud the real issue in the case.
